International Warranty Service (IWS) Impressions?

#1 Post by Moogle » Fri Dec 17, 2004 1:29 pm

I have ordered my new Thinkpad 2373-HVU and have also upgraded to ThinkPad Protection / Onsite Service for 3 years...

I've also checked and found that this system is covered on the International Warranty Service program - Since I will likely travel to Europe quite a bit, I find this to be an extremely valuable feature.

I'm curious if anybody has had any good or bad expieriences with service abroad... (heh, I wonder if I had my keyboard replaced in the UK if it would have a £ sign on it ;) )

Just Curious - Thanks

Fantastic. At least in Spain, I had the same, if not better experience than in the US.

Few days ago I called to IBM service in Madrid and they answered in 3 seconds. They send me a DVD-RW drive replacement and not hassle at all.
Delivery however took 4 days rather than the two days standard in the US, but because I am living in the middle of nowhere...
X220t IPS but but a bit unhappy with it
T60p 2007-93U 1600x1200 IPS (T42p is an overall better machine though. Lack of new IPS Thinkpads keeps me buying these older models!)
T42p 2373-KXU 1600x1200 IPS (The best ever!!)
A20p 2629-6UU 1400x1050 (My first Thinkpad!)

the service is good. I had my touchpad replaced. But you may have to wait for 2 to 3 days to get your machine back.
