What is the process for buying laptops? #

If you are interested in buying your machine, a member of the commercial operations team will be able to confirm the purchase dates for you and whether you are eligible to buy. Please give at least two weeks’ notice of your intent to buy. Please note: your machine will still need to be wiped (by you, while on a call with a member of the technical operations team) ahead of the purchase which will erase all data from the machine. It is your responsibility to back up any personal data that you need to keep to another location prior to the machine being wiped.

Warranty and terms of purchase #

If you decide to buy your laptop, please sign the Laptop Purchasing Waiver to say that you agree to accept your laptop in its current condition. Once you assume ownership, any warranties or insurance dxw may hold for the laptop will expire. dxw will not be responsible for any faults or damage that either exist or go on to develop after you buy the laptop.

Who do I speak to for more information? #

If you have any further questions around this policy or if you need help with a specific query, please speak to a member of the commercial operations team who will be able to assist you. Alternatively, if you need help with a technical query, please contact a member of the technical operations team.
