And do you really think they would beleive i came to turn ir on at one point and the screen was cracked? I have gotten away with that one with a window before but i mean with the computer??

Don't suppose you could claim it on your home insurance? A replacement screen for a laptop can cost as much as a new one sometimes anyway.

You may be able to claim on your home insurance. My friend stood on her laptop by accident as it was under a load of clothes and it completely ruined the screen. They claimed on their home insurance and ended up with a new laptop.

Lol, just say it faultly and it blew up?

[kk.]

yeh, they porbably dont care lol.

Well the laptop has had faults that dell are aware of! The motherboard decided to die just last month and i suppose i could say that this laptop is fualty and think of a few more problems for it!

And how would i go about claming it on home insurance!

Although I have never had to claim off our home insurance. I'm guessing that whoevers' name the insurance is in would call the company and ask for a claim on the item and ask if the item would be covered as part of the home insurance plan. If it is then you'd be awarded some cash to what the company believes is the value of the item or they may offer to pay for repair work to the item, depending on whatever they want to do.

It's really something you need to discuss with the account holder, assuming that's not yourself.

you speak to your mum/dad and they then ring the insurance company. voila, done. It might put if the insurance a pound or two depending on certain things like claims and the cost.

lol yeah say the screen exploded and on top of gettting a new laptop I want compensation as I need to go therapy as I am afraid of screens now. That will work

Maybe they will like empathize with you. Last time, I accidentally dropped my iPod and my screen cracked, and they gave me a free replacement. I suggest try to go get it replaced, don't get your hopes up, don't be too demanding, and maybe they will feel for you and give you a free replacement.
