Purchase Extended Warranty Online

You can purchase extended warranty at ~~Nokia’s~~ Microsoft’s online shop at nokia.indiatimes.com. Do make sure that you purchase the plan suiting your handset model as they cannot be interchanged for one another. Once you’ve placed the order, just sit back and wait for a call from the IndiaTimes support team asking for your phone model and the IMEI number. After you’ve provided that, a warranty certificate will be generated in a few days and forwarded to your email address provided while placing the order.

If the MCP packs are not in stock at Nokia Shop, you can try searching on eBay.in as various sellers keep on listing them from time to time.

Purchase Extended Warranty Offline

If you’re not an online person, you can still purchase extended warranty by visiting the Microsoft Care Points. However, do note that not all the care centers will have extended warranty packages in stock. So, buying online is a far better option if a care center is not located close to you.
