    That would probably depend on what the issues are and if you have had it for more than six months.

    Depends what you mean by "continuous issues".

    If the issues are software related and there is no hardware issue, that's not covered.
    If the issues are hardware related but they're being caused by the user (such as if you leave your laptop on the bed, block all the vents up, it overheats and then you wonder why it overheats), then that's not covered either.


    "If something's faulty – in other words it breaks the SAD FART rules – returning it speedily is crucial.
    • Within 30 days.

      You can usually still get a full refund due to what's called your 'short-term right to reject'. After that only expect exchange, repair or part-refund.

    • Within six months.

      The shop must prove goods weren't faulty when they sold them – after that, you must prove they were."


    So the question is:  Is it older than six months?

  • Also, what are the issues?
