IME, Visa extends the *original* warranty by a single year but this does not back up any purchased extended warranty. A standard 1-year warranty becomes 2 years.
This is a big different with computers where a purchased 3-year extended warranty becomes 4 years with AMEX.
I've been told this a few times by Visa CSRs, but happy if they (and me) have it wrong....
