Issues with extended manufacturer warranty

Hello All, I bought a washing machine 3 years ago based on fact that it came with extended warranty (5 years) . After registering the machine, I checked with manufacturer and they suggested they would send the paper work in post while also suggesting that my machine was eligible for 5 years warranty. I never received the paperwork.
Now i am chasing them to get a repair. My machine has developed a fault almost an year ago. I approached the manufacturer and they suggested my machine is not covered in warranty. I kept chasing them and then they suggested my machine was never in 5 years warranty. Even though i provided all the emails / screenshots, the management believes as it was never in the extended warranty offer, hence i cannot claim it. They also apologised for clerical mistake i,e, confirming that the machine was in extended warranty back in 2017.
I am wondering do i have any rights here. I had some many issues when i bought this machine which was new and installed professionally by 'Currys'. I had to return my first machine on very first week, the second machine developed the fault which was then got repaired in 2 years warranty. Now the machine display does not work as it was one of the smart machine machines.
The machine costed me around £400 in 2017
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks

Warranty subject to any terms and conditions they want .Warranty is not your Consumer Rights that is against the seller .Under CR Currys have the right to ask you for an independent report regarding the problem and any rights .You pay for that cost recovered if right .They choose to repair replace or refund less allowance for 3 years usage .At £400 and 3 years old i would just write it off .0
