X220 LCD Rear Cover, Lenovo denies the warranty, although it was covered for someone else.

Hi,
I have been having EXACTLY the same issue as in this post:
http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/X220-Plastic-strip-loose-no-warranty/td-p/7249...
here are some images of my laptop:

Here is my story below,
I left my X220 ( which is just 4 months old) at PERCOM (A Lenovo Partner) in Munich, because of the same reason ( plastic cover loose) and 1 other issue. They took the machine and sent it to the manufacturer and had it tested there and concluded that it was my fault, although I am pretty much sure I have not caused this issue. Besides, PERCOM charges me 100€ to get my laptop back and their reason is that they had to spend time on the device because the defects were mechanical damages by user ( that they claim, but its absolutely not true. )
So i need your consultation from now on, what could you suggest me to do? They want me to pay them 100€, although I do not have it repaired ( and although I am sure it is a manufactural issue ). I have contacted some magazines already that this is not legitimate and have been waiting for their response.
I still do not understand how Lenovo can deny the same issue that has been resolved for someone else. Please help.
what do you suggest me to do from now on?

Hi eduedix,
Sorry to read about your situation, why don't you follow dodger_NL's example, which you have read, and escalate the case by creating a complaint?  PERCOM should be able to do this for you or if you wish to you can do it yourself by calling service and quoting the current Call Nr. or your system's type and serial number.
Out of interest, do you expect the magazines to repair your notebook before you've gone through the "appeals" complaints process or what?  I suggest you open a complaint, it will help you more than the magazines.
