SquareTrade

Bought policy for new fridge at time of purchase for 5 years as ice makers are known to break and figure the $160 for 5 years was good deal as one call to repair would be more. Call and get message "You can only create a claim online" that is ridiculous!
Ok go to website and it will not let me do claim. Next call all state and forever on the phone, it refuses to give agent or representative and finally after about 10 minutes it times out and give rep. Then they took info and spend about 40 minutes and then finally they can't do anything with square trade and call them! WTF! Try calling square trade same message file online just kept pushing buttons and finally Indian woman picks up who i cannot understand at all. Accent and English language are just abysmal i just cannot understand enough to talk and realize how can i do policy info, ask for another rep 4 times and she just hangs up on me!
Now over 2 hours and finally another Indian woman who at least speaks a bit better English, long story of what? Say again? A 100 times. I give her policy number and she couldn't understand and kept messing up number, another 30 minutes finally gets it right...WTF
THEN she tells me my name and address and if it's right. Finally. Then i cannot understand what she is saying, keeps saying receipt what receipt. Puts on hold forever and a day, then some supervisor named DAVID supervisor #18, says i have to prove purchase, I am wtf you have policy number and i am on computer from purchase of 3 years ago. Now you demand a receipt of purchase? I gave them policy number and she confirmed my address, so i am on computer system, but you demand a receipt from 3 years ago that i bought online at time of buying fridge i don't have a receipt for that, then told basically no receipt no honoring insurance that is listed on their insurance system...so now having to have Costco history check and copy of purchase as its over 2 years old.
I have print out of policy number, date of start and end etc. and yet they refuse to honor because i cant show proof of purchase?
Screw square trade and all state, black listed from use forever!

Look if you have a cell phone buy a warranty from asurion or anyone else. Yes it might cost you a bit more but believe me you will save yourself a headache you cant imagine. I filed a claim with squaretrade. Now it seems every claim filed has to go for a review which can take anywhere from 12 to 48 hours IF YOU ARE LUCKY! In my case it took almost 4 days and 3 call ins to finally get a shipping label to send my phone in for a simplistic screen repair. Now once you have the label everything moves pretty quick, It's shipped overnight, they fix it and send it back the next day. Figure at least 4 days to get your phone back once you finally have the shipping label. In my case I got my phone back but now it has no cellular service so apparently the tech who fixed it broke something or forgot to hook the cellular antenna back up. I contacted squaretrade to let them know I need to send it back in so they can fix what they broke and the real nightmare begun. I am now on day 5, the phone is still setting on my table waiting for a shipping label that has never arrived in my email. I was told my case would be escalated and I would receive the label in about 2 hours. Today was my 7th call into squaretrade with the same old lies about how were sorry for the delay, I have looked into this myself sir and you have been moved to the front of the line, look for an email in the next 24 hours. It is the worst customer experience you can have. So now I'm still sitting here waiting for a fed ex label and I have 0 confidence that it will arrive in the next 24 hours and even less then 0 confidence that my phone will even be repaired correctly.
I cannot stress this enough DO NOT USE SQUARETRADE!

I will never again purchase or recommend anyone to purchase a warranty through Squaretrade. I purchased a PS5 console through Walmart and payed retail $499. I spent months trying to get the console, so when I finally got one I purchased the extended warranty through Squaretrade for piece of mind. One year later the disk drive stops working so I filed a warranty claim and sent in the console to be repaired. This is a very simple repair to do on these consoles, plug and play disk drive, so I expected no issues. A few days later, the company emails me and says my console is beyond repair and they can't replace it for the price I payed so they send me a $499 Walmart gift card. This would have been nice if my console had been for sale but it wasn't. My warranty contract through Squaretrade clearly states repair or replace. I didn't want a refund, I wanted a repair or replace and they refused both options. I called customer support and spoke to two managers to try and get my original console back, I didn't care if it was repaired or not and I didn't want the refund because these consoles are very hard to get. Both managers refused to send my console back. They did refund the price I payed for the warranty but only after I stayed on the phone with them for an hour. So In my opinion, this warranty would be good for someone who is ok with only receiving a refund for their item. If you buy a next gen console from Walmart and purchase the extended warranty through Squaretrade, there's a good chance you won't get it back when you have to send it in for a simple 10 minute repair. I'm leaving a honest 0 star customer review

I am currently holding for answers from Allstate for the 10+ time. I was supposed to recieve my computer two weeks ago. I still do not have it. I had requested a change of address to redirect the package (i was on vacation and was told the package would be delivered during my time on vacation). One rep said he did that one week ago, but that sometimes "fedex doesn't accept change of addresses." Called Fed Ex they said they have never rejected a claim. So Allstate lied to me, though, it was referred to as a "misstatement." by another representative. This company is a con. I trusted that my computer would be delivered to me two weeks ago, and because of the restrictions put on by Allstate - I can't do anything about getting it returned to me. ONLY allstate can make changes - and they haven't been willing or able to do that. Since they have had my computer for a month, if i don't receive my computer...or reimbursement of my computer...I will be filing a police report of theft.

Update. I still do not have my laptop and no one can tell me definitely where it is. It's been one month since it was supposed to be delivered. When I last wrote my complaint...I have had at least 5 more conversations, not counting the endless emails I've sent that have not been returned. They promised me a refund of the $99, which I have not received either. The kicker...if I want to provide a notice of arbitration...I have to spend another $250 in order to file it. I already had to buy a replacement computer because Allstate has held up my computer since February 28th. I can't even believe how terrible this whole process has been. Do they think I'll just forget about my $1000 computer?

I want my computer...or I want to be reimbursed.

After paying over $500 over 5 years for warranty on my iPhone they have a deductible of $96.57 to try to fix a 5 year old iPhone. Disgraceful.

Squaretrade should let you know that they require a shop to give you a certificate so that they can replace your phone.
What a waste of my time.

They are very bad on helping you out when it come to purchasing the plan beware they are horrible the will take the money but not help you out

Square trade took advantage of me. I didn't get what I paid for. Don't you research before buying square trade.

Website sends you in circles and you don't have a choice to even talk to a rep to file a claim. Dont waste your money

You people get paid to make people suffer. Please make us jump through more useless hoops for us to get simple service and what we paid for.

Horrible customer service. I am uploading THREE items (2 itemized invoices with prices before and after tax etc) plus a receipt stating that I have paid and the first reply from their end is that the PRICES are missing. I resend the items and CIRCLE the amounts for them just to receive another email a day later claiming that the ITEMIZATION is missing now. What a joke and what a poor way to treat customers. Had to chat for over half an hour and then was asked to send them my PURCHASE HISTORY? I then read other reviews online and found out that this seems to be your method to treat customers. Had to chat again (since they had promised my refund within a couple of business days which did not happen) Then I receive another message because all of the sudden they found out that the item was a little less expensive than the repair (which was crystal clear from the get-go) They then paid the item price (which they should have agreed on from the beginning of my claim) Very disappointed in Allstate which once was a reputable company in the past. Thanks for all the trouble and unnecessary time invested.

I had theft my in swimming event in hasselby beach my phone and my AirPods gone everything I have money card bank,Worst insurance I ever had, I will advise everyone don't do any business to them.

Took 4 months and cancelation of mu account to have it actually show up. When it does show up, its wrong.

JB hifi must be getting kickbacks to sell this junk when you can pay less and get Applecare+ which includes cover for loss or theft

This is a 2nd party extended warranty insurance through ALLSTATE be aware ALLSTATE sells it when you buy electronics but they don't want to be held accountable. It is almost impossible to file a claim. You have to start with a claim that take hours to navigate through in order to get somewhere. Once you are able to get some sort of lead, this is just to buy them time. In my particular case they send me to apple store, apple told me they couldn't do anything it was out of factory warranty. I spent another few hours trying to have someone understand my problem. Finally they emailed me a shipping label to send my labtop to their repair center. After a week or two of not knowing where my laptop was, i get back from fedex only to find out nothing was ever done and my labtop still doesn't turn on. When i called them they said there is nothing they can do but because they found some small corrosion and that voids the warranty. My labtop never has been close to wate, funny apple said just needed a new battery and thats what it was all along because i had the battery replace and it work just fine.DO NOT BUY THIS EXTENDED WARRANTY IS NORTH YOUR TIME.

I bought a laptop from Ebay. It came with a one year warranty. I tried to file a claim and the rep. From Square Trade told me the laptop had prior issues. How the HELL would he know this. At the time of my review I have filed a complaint with the CA AG office. SQUARE TRADE does NOT stand behind its protection plans. IT IS THE WORST! THUMBS DOWN. Hi Jess,

NOT WORTH IT!
THEY MAKE IT HARD TO FILE CLAIMS AND GET PAID
CROOKS.
DON'T BUY THEM. I'D GIVE THEM A ZERO IF I COULD.

It's currently 8 PM and I have been on and off the phone with SquareTrade since 4. This has been such a terrible experience. So, let's start off with the fact that they couldn't "find" my claim. And hours later, It was found. I have called 6 different different numbers and talked to a total of 7 different assisoates. Then, they find my claim & tell me, that my laptop (mind you, I had already called HP and tried to trouble-shoot with them). That I have to send my product in. I have drive to my nearest Fed-Ex, use a box, get bubble-wrap, and send it through. BUT, it's hassle-free, right? Because, they offer a free shipping label?

My issue is that I don't have a printer, and was suggested I once more- drive to my nearest library.

SO, then. At this point it's 7:30, I'm dead-tired, and I tell them "FINE".

Then, I go to my email where the "free shipping label is". And what happens? It states "access denied". Yay!:(

I call back, wait. And get told to try it on a different system. OH, you mean the system that is broken? Ok, let me do that. NOT.

I then have to download Google Chrome after being told to try a different browser. SHOCKER! It doesn't work! At this point, I've tried Safari, Google and Google Chrome.

What is their solution? To send another email!

The same thing happened! WHAATT?

At this point, I have basically broken down, I'm stressing. Because something that I use everyday for work is now broken, I was told I have to wait for the repair, and NOW, I have to wait for another email so that the SAME thing will happen.

Their solution to if the email is still not working, is to have Fed-Ex attempt to print it? You mean with the non-working link?

I couldn't NOT recommend this more! It's sucked, and I wouldn't wish anyone to have to deal with this company.

So annoyed!

Trovano cavilli per non pagare, pessima assicurazione, ti dicono che sei coperto per il furto ma poi non è vero solo se sei rapinato con violenza... È un pacco di assicurazione... SCONSIGLIATISSIMO
