@iStudentUK - thanks for all the useful info you have assembled, much appreciated!
My current understanding is that all the uplift option will buy me, beyond the standard HE 3yrs Parts & Labour, is:
1. Global coverage - worth considering if I might spend any of the next 3yrs abroad.
2. They collect - worth considering if I don't happen to live near an Applestore or authorised service provider.
Would you happen to know if displays bought at the same time are covered by the standard HE 3yrs Parts & Labour?
It would appear that, if buying the uplift option, displays are covered - the "Learn more" description of Applecare (accessible from the area of the purchase screen that offers the uplift option and no alternative Applecare-branded option) specifically mentions "Apple display purchased with your Mac".
... but it would be interesting to know if displays also get the 3yrs Parts & Labour as standard. If they do, I am not at all sure it is worth paying the £48, I certainly never needed the uplift option I paid for on my last Macbook.
