The Surface Support for Business Online Service Center supports Extended Service Plan token redemption and association to devices along with the ability to check token and device warranty status.
- You will also need to supply your Surface Book serial number. Microsoft recommends that you read this number off of the bottom of the device’s screen, near the Surface Connect port.
- The serial number of your Surface, needed for warranty and service information, is printed directly beneath the word Surface under the kickstand. The serial number of a Surface keyboard is printed on the right edge of its spine — that raised edge that clicks onto the Surface when attaching the keyboard.

Unless the OEM Product Key came with a piece of non-peripheral hardware
(i.e., motherboard or hard drive) and an unbranded, generic OEM
installation DVD, you can be assured that it most certainly is *NOT* valid.
One should be very careful buying any software on eBay, as eBay makes
no prior effort to ensure that such sales are legitimate. The problems
stem from two different sources, but have the same results: the buyer
gets ripped off. A great many people don't fully understand the terms
of the license they own, and don't understand that they cannot
legitimately resell it, and - worse still - there are a great many
sellers who do know that they're selling bogus licenses. eBay reacts
only when someone files a complaint, and then all that really happens,
especially in the case of the many deliberate fraudsters, is the seller
of the pirated software returns using a different alias, to continue
selling illegitimate licenses.
