Hi,

Wanted to ask if anyone had experience with any of the after market warranties (Upsie, Worth Ave. Group, etc.) for the MacBook Air M2? I had ordered a tricked out M2 Air (max spec) last summer. I usually get Apple Care plus on all my devices, but somehow failed to do so. I honestly thought it had Apple Care plus, but recently came to find out that it doesn't. Unfortunately since the warranty already expired in July, I am SOL in adding Apple Care, so wanted to see if there were any other reasonable options.

Thanks in advance for the input!

Have you tried contacting apple about this first? Sometimes there are exceptions to be made, especially if you have an Apple Store near you that could inspect the laptop. I wouldn't trust a 3rd party warranty on such an expensive piece of hardware personally.

Agreed. I definitely tried with both the Apple store and AppleCare agreement admin. Apparently they have become very strict about this now because of whichever underwriting company they use. They said its simply not possible.

I appreciate the thought and your input!
