  • It's a compliance form the company forces them to fill out regarding insurance to get a code to enter to proceed with the sale.
    takes about a minute at the most.

    Can you expand on what this is? Compliance for whom? Whose insurance and for what?

    I'd be wary of signing any forms they give me regarding insurance, lest I end up buying a product I don't want.

    CPW on virtually any purchace trys to sell you damage/loss insurance. If you refuse to take out the insurance you have to sign the tablet to say you refuse, If you dont sign the tablet they wont sell you. Its all part of dixons group hard sell (adding a psychological element, its so important you have to sign to say you refused) on warrentys (only started after CPW murged with dixons).

    There are other retailers for the same goods, at the same prices. I'd just walk out.

    If everyone did the same they'd soon change their "policy".
