I had a premium care SN Lenovo for a high-end laptop. I boxed them after they wanted me to send it in for repairs. After they investigated with the carrier when they could not find the laptop so they sent me a new one. First they wanted a receipt but I told them I got at my job and I did not have a receipt. Took about three months and loads of e-mails.

Tried the same method  this year and gave them all the info they asked for, receipts, pics and so on. The SE failed when they checked the receipt and noticed it was a fake I guess. It was a very real looking scanned paper receipt from a closed down non existing computer shop in the US done by a very professional photoshopper.

I guess you can still SE them using the serial number method if you know how.
