the plot evolves...
amazon called me..
.. and said...
Square trade is gone but they now have Amazon Protect - exacpt that although that is supposed to appear for all of the e-readers, it is only showing as an option on the Kindle Oasis (and at £53 for 2 year cover is not cheap )
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01IQSUL...FG_productInfo
£63 for 3 years is a better deal

so we searched together for amazon protect and for other kindle models - she agreed it is glitched , and is going to get back to me, when the offer is working on other Kindles
I asked her to also check if it will be there for the Kobo KA1 - which has anyway vanished from amazon again, so she will respond on that also

but there will be no extended wattrany options for any tablets or tablets mobile phones - they are dropping those, she said
I forgot to mention fire TV, but definitely no extended cover for any of the Fire HD tablets- which to me says something about their confidence in the hardware they are using.
Maybe I'll just frame the insurance cert for my existing fire HDX 8.9 and hang it on the wall, as a rare antique

meanwhile the Kobo KA1 with the £10 extra from John Lewis is still at #1 on my buy list

amazon protect is a brand stuck onto a service from London General Insurance Company Limited, and you have to buy it on the day you buy the reader.
