It’s a SCAM. Even the expensive coverage.

You guys upcharge saying” oh hey since you bought a 300$ item the 125$ protection plan will cover accidents and anything. But when you go up and try and claim you find out the 125$ one is the STANDARD ONE SO YOU THINK YOU GOT COVERAGE BUT YOU DONT. And they say pay out of pocket for the device to get fixed and we’ll give ya a gift card vs actually doing something. Don’t buy I’ll protest in Walmart holding a sign. I have the money to get the accident one, it’s more of dishonesty and thievery at the end of the day

Hello Nathaniel Reitz,

We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with your recent experience.

SquareTrade offers two types of plans: Standard and Accidental. Our Standard plan covers mechanical and electrical malfunctions, while the Accidental plan includes accidental drops or liquid contact. In this case, the item was covered under our Standard Protection plan, which does not cover physical damage. While SquareTrade does its best to assist all our customers, we can only approve claims within the specifications of the coverage purchased.

Again, we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you've experienced thus far. However, we would appreciate the opportunity to further review the case and determine if additional assistance can be provided. If you would allow us, please email socialhelps@squaretrade.com and include "Trustpilot Review" in the subject line, along with any helpful information such as your protection plan ID or contact details. One of our specialists will examine the claim and follow up with you directly.

Thank you,
AA

Outstanding Service from Allstate Protection Plans

I can't say enough good things about Fredrick William and the Allstate Square Trade Protection team! They were quick to respond to my claim and more than fair in compensating me for the need to rent a replacement for my Z 24-120 lens while it was sent to the factory for repair. I continue to purchase all my gear from B&H in part because of access to their exclusive accidental drop and spill program.

Hello Maxwell ,

We apologize for any difficulties you have experienced canceling your protection plan.

SquareTrade does our best to provide our customers with efficient and effective resolutions since our goal is to eliminate any issues that can cause a delay. In this case, the customer's account was reviewed by SquareTrade's Trust & Safety team to confirm the integrity and security of the account in question. However, there are necessary actions customers must take to help us move their request forward, such as submitting proof of purchase. We require receipts to verify essential details that affect the protection plan, such as the item's price, date of purchase, and serial numbers (if applicable). This is done to ensure that the information regarding the request is verified, to prevent misrepresentation. We are sorry that this resulted in the consumer's request still pending the completion of this process.

In this case, we were happy to assist the customer and provide additional support regarding the customers claim. We hope to provide better experience in the future.

Thank you,
AB

Decent experience, but could've been more streamlined

Got compensated a fair amount for the defect on the used keyboard I bought, but I don't understand why the Squaretrade website wouldn't let me complete the claim online. They made me call a representative and sit on the phone for 30 minutes with him to give him all the details I could've put into an online form in 5 minutes, which was a pain.

I can't even finish my claim online because the submit button won't light up. I bought a water softner 2 years ago that is not working. I contacted me and they want to know what is wrong with it. I have no idea but there is no one in my area that can fix it. I have filed a complaints at the better business bureau because I can't seem to get any help from them.
