Warranty options

[Gary1986]

So, I got my work a MacBook about 10 months ago and forgot to get Square Trade. She had a near accident when a student almost knocked a drink on her MacBook. Any suggestions for a warranty that covers accidental damage?

If I'm understanding your post correctly. You cannot get an extended warranty/insurance after its damaged. Its too late.

Depends where you are these things are different in every country, but the quickest easiest cheapest option is usually to add it as a named item on your home insurance.

It isn't damaged yet. She had a near miss yesterday, which prompted me to start searching for one.

I'm in the U.S.

Ah I'm in the UK, here it usually works out cheaper and easier to do as I suggested above. I'm afraid I don't know enough about US insurance to advise.

You want insurance, not a warranty. They are not the same thing.

Check your homeowner's policy, some offer accidental damage for electronics. Else you can probably have it added in for a nominal fee.
