After being told my laptop needed to be returned for them to complete an audit, in which case if the issues I had were valid I would be reimbursed, they decided to fix the error insteadIt was my fault for taking anything verbally said to me to be true
It took business days for them to return the laptop after it was fixed the second time, leading the total to be days without my laptopTo my surprise, when I received my laptop back, I had the exact same issue
Per an email on 3/from *** C
"If your device is still not working then we would consider a reimbursement of the device." I do not want them to consider a reimbursement, I want them to actually issue the reimbursementI have spent far too much time waiting for the laptopAlso considering the number of hours I have had to spend waiting/speaking to/getting updates, I want my transactions with SquareTrade to be completed with a reimbursement
