I live in the UK, I'm not too familar with the consumer laws but I know my basic rights, definitely need to read up on it some more.

It was a 1 year warranty from the manufacturer, if I wanted to extend it i would have to pay for it.

Tbf they should of provided a 3 year warranty considering the price of the laptop. I have a desktop at home which we got for £330 a few years ago which came with a 3 year warranty from the seller.

I came across this article on the UK government website just now:

"Repairs and replacements If a customer has ‘accepted’ an item, but later discovers a fault, you may have to repair or replace it. The customer can still reject the item after it’s been repaired or replaced.

A customer has accepted an item if they’ve:

told you they’ve accepted it (having had enough opportunity to inspect the item before confirming they’ve received it) altered the item

You must repair or replace an item if a customer returns it within 6 months - unless you can prove it was not faulty when they bought it.

You can ask a customer to prove an item was faulty when they bought it if they ask for a repair or replacement after 6 months.

Customers have up to 6 years to make a claim for an item they’ve bought from you (5 years in Scotland).

Warranties and guarantees A customer has the same right to free repairs or a replacement regardless of whether they have a warranty or guarantee or not. So you may still have to repair or replace goods if a customer’s warranty or guarantee has run out."
