Does my warranty run out in May or December?

Hey,

Had the box sent back twice, not sure if they've renewed the warranty for a lonnger period as a good will gesture, maybe some of you may know.

It says:

Warranty Start: 12/2/2006 8:20:00 AM
Warranty Expiration: 5/12/2009 7:59:59 PM

Now, are they using the american format?

Month, Day, Year

Or the UK formate

Day, Month, Year (The way that makes sense and that it should be )

Thanks

You've got until December.


You get between 3 and 6months added for each repair depending on the fault. But how you got it until 2009 is a mystery. I'm guessing you paid for a 3year warranty.

Didn't pay a penny.

I had 2 months left on the 3yr RROD warranty, so told them it had a red ring and sent it back.

It came back 2 weeks ago, lasted 2 days and broke again, so had to send it back of and it came back yesterday.

Kool, december isn't too bad, glad they gave me a nice warranty

Woner why they gave me 10 months warrant.

No, it's UK format, or atleast all of mine have been in UK format. Mine expired on 26/02/2009 before I got it repaired.

I'm just as baffeled then lol

Hopefully I won't need to find out, and at the end of the day if it runs out and I can't get it replaced, it's an excuse to buy a 120GB elite or something
