Can l buy a warranty on my E1405 after l ordered it?

Do you have to get the warranty at the time that you order the laptop? Because l ordered mine with the base 1-year mail-in warranty and i've been thinking of bumping it up to a 2-3 year plan but l'm not so sure if l can...

 

Im wondering if you can add on complete care later on after purchasing an e1505

 

I'm fairly sure you can purchase an extended warranty after you've purchased your notebook. I received in the mail last week a notice that I was eligible for some money off a 2 year warranty extension if I wanted to upgrade my warranty. That was about a week or so after I received my E1405.

 

It depends how long ago you brought the machine. call dell

 

I recieved an offer right after I recieved my E1505(early April).
If I remember it correct it was like a 100-150 off offer for complete care.

 

Yes you can...when you log into your Dell account, make sure you laptop shows up that you ordered it once you click on your service code it should give you the option to extend the warranty.

Thanks USAF but now i've got another question. How do l access the EPP page from the main dell.com page? Thats how l had ordered my E1405 and honestly l forgot how l got there

 

I don't know about that one. I think even through the Dell main page you should have to login with your e-mail addy and password to access your account. (I think) Once you login, put in your service code and see about the warranty.

If you are still having trouble, I am sure someone using EPP will help you out.

 

Yeah l used a member id or something from a thread on slickdeals forum to get the laptop and now l forget how to get back there.

 

You should still be able to create a Dell account and login, then put in your service code in the My Computer and Perephials box. Then you should be able to purchase more of a warranty.

 

Ok, l'll check that out tomorrow when l get my laptop (well, UPS has the delivery date set tomorrow but its still in Nashville, TN and i'm in NJ) and find out my service code.

 

i could be wrong, but i believe you can add warranty anytime during your normal warranty; i.e., if you have a 1 year warranty, you can add as long as you're within that 1 year.

since you haven't even received your computer yet, it shouldn't be a problem... you can simply call/email/chat dell to add it.

 

Thanks, its good to know l can always buy a warranty in the future just in case l feel the need.

But l have another questionable thing going on...UPS tracking says my package weighs 18 lbs and to my knowledge that could only be the 5.5lb E1405, power adaptor, and the cardboard box + packing items (air bags, foam blocks etc). But 18lbs seems like 10 lbs too many. Could it be a UPS issue or did dell send me more then l asked for?
