Case Studies: How CPS Warranties Save Consumers

The Tale of a Troubled Laptop

Jane, a freelance graphic designer, heavily relied on her high-end laptop for her work. When her laptop’s motherboard failed unexpectedly, the repair cost was estimated at $600. Thankfully, Jane had a CPS extended warranty, which covered the entire repair cost, saving her from financial stress.

The Refrigerator Fiasco

Mark’s family refrigerator stopped working just two years after purchase. The compressor needed replacement, with an estimated cost of $900. Mark had skipped the extended warranty, thinking it was unnecessary. The unexpected expense forced him to dip into his savings. Had he opted for the CPS warranty, the repair would have been covered.
