Ingersoll Rand used to require this and guys would just get a prepaid credit card. Not sure if that still works, I mean I know they can tell now if it's a "real" credit account or not.
I'll say, I've warrantied many things through Milwaukee. Only once was it denied and it was out of warranty and I knew it. They give the option of destroy the tool or return it to you (or pay for the repair). I've never selected the return as-is option, so I don't know if they try to charge return postage.
I've never given TTI any financial info and they've never asked for it.....between myself and friends and my non-profit I probably warranty 2 things per year on average.
