I purchased an extended warranty from…

I purchased an extended warranty from Wayfair for a table and 6 chairs. It was to include mechanical/electrical, drops/spills/other accidents, and furniture finish. This was to be"premium" coverage. I ordered the furniture under an email that is no longer in use. I went to make this claim at the end of 2025(November), and Allstate just could not change my email. It took several attempts to resolve the issue. I finally was able to put in the claim on March 1st, 2026. Well, since the "issue" start date was January 1st...March 1st is more than 30 days. It was instantly denied. I don't know why this was lumped under the same issue. I finally called to have this looked at, and they just refused to cover the veneer damage that is supposed to be covered. They also indicated that they would never cover this again for the remainder of the coverage. My issue in January was them being able to pull up my warranty info...I did not relate the veneer issue until March. The customer service agent would not let me talk to anyone else. I asked to speak to a supervisor, thinking that this OBVIOUS issue on their part should not have had my claim denied. I did not get to talk to anyone else. The agent started another claim...that was denied, stating I was trying to change the dates. I submitted photos. Denied again. I was never able to file a claim because of Allstate's incompetence in verifying an email change. This is obviously by design to not have to actually pay out on any claims. I would not purchase coverage again. CLAIM ID:099148164132 and CLAIM ID: 044713974135
Update 5/14/26
I was only offered a refund of the warranty. No help with the damage to the table. It is apparently impossible to make a new claim, or fix their issue with the 1st one. Again, there is no point in purchasing a protection plan from Allstate. I asked the agent to call me back in a couple of days...maybe more time can help him find someone else within the company who can figure it out? Not resolved unfortunately.

Do not purchase!!!

If I could give a zero I would. I bought hearing aids for my mother with a 2-year warranty. After 1 year and 3 months I sent them in because they were not working. I spent over $1,100 total with taxes and the warranty. They sent me a check for $664 and told me to go buy another set because they were not able to fix them. When asked what happens to the other 7 months of the warranty I purchased they basically told me it was gone because the claim is closed. Now I have to buy another pair of hearing aids with a new warranty and I will be out of pocket almost $500. They are a scam. The phone representatives are in another country and you could barely understand their English. Allstate corporate office says well they're under our umbrella but we really don't have anything to do with that. I will never do any business with Allstate because you are definitely not in good hands.

Hello Veronica Booth,

We’re sorry to hear about your recent experience with your claim.

As it turns out, SquareTrade protection plans cover you up to the amount you paid for your item. However, this excludes taxes and other additional fees associated with the purchase. The amount paid for the plan contributes to the services provided through the protection plan. Once again, we sincerely apologize for any frustration you have experienced with the resolution offered.

We understand the frustration that can arise from this situation. However, we were glad to speak with you and reach an amicable resolution for your claim. We hope to provide a better experience in the future.

Thank you,
AB

DO NOT BUY anything from them

DO NOT BUY anything from them. I wasted 2 hours on the phone with 2 different people. The first person stated there is nothing wrong with my TV—that it is my ISP. When I explained that the other 2 TVs are working fine, he refused to help me and stated I had to call my Internet provider. I asked to speak with someone higher up and I was pushed back into the main menu. The second person acknowledged that this is a known problem with my TV model and I need a repair. When I asked how this works with my extended warranty plan, she put me on hold and I was put back in the main menu. When I then tried to navigate the menu, I was disconnected. In other words, your plan will NOT BE HONORED. THEY STEAL YOUR MONEY FOR A BOGUS PLAN.

NOT REAL HAPPY

From the beginning the individuals I had to deal with didn't seem to understand what was needed. The initial claim was closed after I opened it and I wasn't notified. When I tried to submit reimbursement is when I found it closed. I called got it straightened out then they send a check to the wrong address. I had to call back again to get it fixed and am still waiting for a check that should have been here 3 weeks ago.

Excellent Protection and Seamsless Claims Process

I am thoroughly impressed with the service provided by Allstate SquareTrade. After experiencing a technical issue with my device, the claims process was incredibly straightforward and stress-free.

I had a fantastic experience with Allstate SquareTrade. Filing a claim was incredibly quick and the online portal is very user-friendly. I was impressed by the fast turnaround time and the clear communication throughout the entire repair process. It’s a huge relief to have this kind of reliable protection for my electronics—definitely worth the peace of mind!

Extended warranty

First time using insurance for an appliance that was under a purchased extended warranty. The technician was able to fix our under the counter ice maker and the insurance company reimbursed us for what we spent to fix the ice maker.

Don't do it

If you are considering an Allstate Protection Plan, don’t bother. I’ve been trying to resolve a claim since April 28, 2026, for a plan I bought back in July 2024. The process is incredibly slow and intentionally frustrating. I have been asked to provide the same information multiple times with no progress toward a resolution. It feels like they are just trying to wear me down so I’ll give up. Truly a miserable experience.
