    The above are the T&C of the original Care Plan taken out in 2013 and still being paid at £5 per month
     You've been had paying £5 a month for that long. The device cant even be worth anywhere near what you've paid in that time 
    The device won't be worth £5

    We had desktop computer for about eight years under Curry's insurance.  When they couldn't repair it they gave us a voucher which was enough to buy a new one.

    The plan we took out for the new one does have an end date: about three years.  The original plan didn't.

    (ETA: Sorry I didn't realise the thread was so old!).
