The university, CougarTech Repair ... I thought that this fit the description of certified repair technicians the had been asked for . ... I realize that my daughter and I forgot the plan and had it repaired else where but since the first agent told me it could be reimbursed I surely had hopes the they would cover at least some of the costs (the hard drive and the installation charge).  ...  "
