Cancelling extended warranties

Cancelling your extended warranty

If you change your mind after buying an extended warranty for a domestic electrical appliance, you have 45 days from the purchase of the policy to cancel it and get a full refund.

Write a letter to the shop where you bought it from, supplying the warranty policy number, date of purchase and price of the warranty. Include the following paragraphs:

 "I understand that The Supply of Extended Warranties on Domestic Electrical Goods Order 2005 provides for a 45-day cancellation period, during which consumers have the right to cancel and get a full refund.

I am hereby giving notice that I wish to exercise my legal rights and cancel my extended warranty with you. I have not claimed on the warranty and expect a full refund of my (£xxx) payment within 14 days."

If your warranty was purchased online or over the phone you may be able to cancel the contract under the Distance Selling Regulations. These give you 14 days to cancel most extended warranty contracts made 'at a distance' (online, or by mail, phone or fax order).

Testimonial

"I just had to put pen to paper and write to say I'm more than delighted with my settlement that you won me back from my PPI I had with Lloyds TSB. The Claim Forms were simple to fill in. It was a breeze"
