Well why they approve the claim then?
They don't do a whole investigation every time you submit a claim. They kinda trust you. But there's always the chance that it could get scrutinized later on. Seems like even though you got the error message, the claim still went through.

They'll simply begin denying your claims.

You're an unprofitable customer. Return protection is not meant to be abused.

Actually it's ripped right out of the wiki from this thread:

check the wiki and decide for yourself.  then ask if needed.

I wan't to file an extended warranty claim on a product I purchased from Tigerdirect.com

On the invoice it says paid with Amex, but I can't find the charge in my statements or online.

Can it be that I was never charged??

The likelihood of not being charged is extremely small.

Are you sure you're checking the right AMEX card?

Thanks,

Just found it on my wife's card.
(I ruled that out originally because the CC on my tigerdirect profile is mine).

Is there a difference between the purchase protections on Amex Starwood & Platinum?
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

should be the same, because they are both under a third party. you call a different number that insures for Amex, same plan for all insured cards

Their limits might be different.  I think the platinum is higher.

If I buy something on SPG and then cancel the card before the year is up, do I still get the extended warranty?
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

blue sky. And PRG but I might cancel it.
And Sapphire Preferred, Barclay Arrival Plus. The only fee free cards I have are Freedom, Blue Sky, and Discover IT. Do any of them have good warranties?

Doesn't matter if you have other cards. If you close the card there's no warranty. They recently changed the rules (I learnt the hard way)

Is there any benefit to buying large appliances on an AmEx? (Washer, dryer etc.)
