Nationwide credit card

I understand you can claim an extra free warranty for electrical goods if you use your nw credit card. Has anybody done this before, and do electrical goods include computer and MP3 player. Thanks

I've just found the Extended Warranty Policy Document dated Jan 2004.

The items that can be covered seem to be:

TV (up to 39inch)
Plasma Screen
Video Recorder
DVD Player
TV / Video Combi
Satellite / Digital decoder
Hifi (inc separates)
Camcorders
Digital Cameras up to £1000
DVD / VCR Combi
TV / DVD Combi
Washer Dryer
Washing Machine
Tumble Dryer
Spin Dryer
Dishwasher
Cooker (inc Dual Fuel)
Oven
Hob
Fridge
Fridge Freezer
Freezer
Microwave
Vacuum Cleaner
De-Humidifier

Might be worth phoning them as MP3 players might have been added since Jan 2004.

From my recent experience I want to add that they don't cover anything containing hard drive, including Personal Video Recorders (PVRs). If I new this, I'd have paid by a cashback card instead of the Nationwide one ...:doh:

Note, also doesn't cover anything bought abroad.

I think HSBC offer cover but don't know the details. It might just be on their 'Premier' cards though.

I wonder what happens with Xbox 360s? Are Core users provided with a warranty while Premium purchasers are left out in the cold?

Well I think Xbox comes under games console, which I don't think is covered. Unless you argue its a dvd player.
