Desktop PC Kit Insurance

We want you to enjoy using your new desktop computer for years to come. Your manufacturer’s product guarantee provides cover for mechanical and electrical breakdown but will be limited to a year and may not cover parts or breakdown through mishap.

One of the best ways of protecting your desktop computer now and in the future is with Kit Insurance; providing peace of mind should the worst ever happen.

With Kit Insurance you’ll benefit from a 14 day repair promise, unlimited repairs and a loan laptop to keep you going. You have the option to pay once for 2 or 3 years protection or you can choose to pay as you go.

Key benefits:

  • Protection against breakdown or mishap
  • We’ll fix or replace with new
  • All parts and labour charges covered
  • Loan laptop to keep you going

Ask yourself these few simple questions:

  • Will you be storing lots of work or personal information on your desktop?

  • Do you sometimes eat or drink when you are sitting at your desktop

  • Do you agree the cost to fix or replace a desktop is expensive?

  • If required, would you want an experienced engineer to fix your desktop?

If your answer is yes to any of the above, don’t leave things to chance. Kit Insurance will give you the peace of mind you need should anything go wrong.
