Service contracts that you may buy with a new car provide for the repair of certain parts or problems. These contracts are offered by manufacturers, dealers, or independent companies and may or may not provide coverage beyond the manufacturer's warranty. Remember that a warranty is included in the price of the car while a service contract costs extra.

Before deciding to purchase a service contract, read it carefully and consider these questions:

What's the difference between the coverage under the warranty and the coverage under the service contract?

What repairs are covered?

Is routine maintenance covered?

Who pays for the labor? The parts?

Who performs the repairs? Can repairs be made elsewhere?

How long does the service contract last?

What are the cancellation and refund policies?

As an appliance installed I suggest that everybody buy an extended warranty on ice machines. It will definitely pay for itself. As far as other kitchen appliances, it is probably not worth the money.

Should you buy a service contract on a washer?

If your washer is going to get a lot of use and is likely to fail in a year, then it may be worth considering a service contract. If you have a reliable, well-built washer that you only run once a week, you will probably not need service for years. In general, a service contract is a gamble, where the service company gambles that the money you pay will be less than the service you will need. Generally you don't need service so they get to pocket your money, which is why they try so hard to get you to sign. Even if you decide you want a service contract, you should try to talk with other people who have the same contract and who needed service, to see if they were satisfied with the service they paid for.

where can I buy a cell phone with no contract to use with altell service ?

The easiest way is to buy a phone from Alltel, but don't buy it at the contract price. If you pay the full price for the phone, you will be able to have their service on a month to month basis and no contract. If you know someone selling or getting rid of an alltel phone, that would work also. Buying the phone at the discounted rate from alltel is what leads to the contract. They sell you a $200 phone for $19.99 and have you promise to keep their service for 2 years. Eliminate the discount on the phone and you can sign up with no contract.


Can you buy a phone on contract and unlock it to use another sim currently i live in st.kitts but i want to know if i can buy a blakberry torch on contract and unlock it to use with my sim?

Theoretically you could but it would not be very smart financially. You would have to pay a monthly fee for the contract phone and service on it that you will not be using and you will also be paying for the service you will be using through your service provider where you got your SIM card.
