Dell Complete Care: Why is it not offered in Florida?

[aphex]

Just out of shear curiosity..... Says its not offered in Florida & New York... I was curious why?

The State of Florida does not let companys sell those kind of warrantys.

Not sure why.

Just have the system sent to some other state were you have family, then have them send it to you, and you will have your complete care.

It's all Bush's fault. He hates retired Jews. 😉

Thanks guys... Found my answer from PC Mag

The costs of Dell's Complete Care warranty can significantly add to your notebook's bottom line, however. A basic one-year, mail-in warranty on an Inspiron 4150 notebook costs $140, compared to $219 for Complete Care. Also, Complete Care isn't available in California, Florida, or New York. These states have laws preventing companies not licensed to sell insurance from offering warranties that are, in essence, insurance policies, a Dell representative told me.

I bought the complete care package and I live in california. Did they just start doing this recently and am I still covered? I paid an extra 120 or something for this insurance they better honor it.
