Personally I thought a week seemed like a year, but I'm sure you'll disagree LOL!!

I was just pointing out the difference between a gas company "service plan" that will only repair but is not responsible for any replacement costs if its beyond repair, and a mainstream warranty company, who will repair but also replace if they are not able to repair (or more commonly, they have to repair something three times, drag their feet, kick and moan, and then maybe if you are lucky they replace it).With warranty companies, I disagree about your understanding of the "network" of people they use.

I am sorry, but I disagree with almost every post.
