Defective CCD - Sony DSC F717 Digital Camera

Hiya

My Sony DSC F717 CCD unit appears to have stopped working. I see that in America Sony are repairing the camera for free until March 2010. Do you know if this offer applies in the UK?

Thanks

Sonyfsd is right.
In the UK the process was very painless for me a couple of months ago (Dec 2009). Using their online fault-reporting service, I was told to use the words "Known Fault" in the description of the problem. Freepost label and free return meant no charge to me whatsoever.
Only problem was Parcel Force who left the repaired camera, unsigned for, outside my house all day long. Anyone could have stolen it.
