That is interesting. I've not had my claims denied. I even had it approved by showing that I bought AppleCare 11 months after buying the MacBook Pro in 2011. I attached scanned copies of both receipts with the claim and was approved.
- someguydave 7y agoThanks for the info
- someguydave 7y agoReading the Amex coverage, it does address this issue https://www.americanexpress.com/content/dam/amex/us/credit-cards/features-benefits/policies/pdf/EW%20Benefit%20Guide_Tier%201%20Rev%2007-18.pdf https://www.americanexpress.com/content/dam/amex/us/credit-c... “If the item is also covered by a purchased service contract, the Extended Warranty Period begins at the end of the purchased service contract and extends the original manufacturer’s warranty for a period of time equal to the warranty, up to two (2) additional years.” So yes I think Amex extends the warranty after (prepaid 2 year) AppleCare expires for a term of one additional year, taking coverage to 36 months.
- rietta 7y agoAmex coverage is now 2 additional years, but yes. It was one year for a long time.
- someguydave 7y agoI'm not so sure that's the case, when combined with an extended service contract. The "original warranty" was only one year, and this language seems to say that the length of the extended warranty offered by Amex after the service contract is equal to the length of the original warranty, not the length of the service contract. Although I admit, the language is ambiguous and you might luck out with the right Amex agent (when attempting to make a claim in months 36-48)
