Extended+warranties


 * Extended warranties**

Buy an electrical product and most companies will try to push an extended warranty on you. But these policies are costly – typically around 25% of the price of the product. There are also exclusions such as accidental damage to watch out for.

As you are already entitled to a refund if the product is faulty under the Sale of Goods Act 1979, and most products come with a year’s warranty, these policies tend to be a complete waste of money.
