I was pleased with the settlement, but it would have been nice to know how the calculation of the settlement. The claim process was simple and easy to complete.

    Not worth buying a warranty through them. I tried to get my refrigerator icemaker working again through them, called the customer service. They said they were gonna make a claim for me and never heard from them again, no emails, no phone calls. Nothing. In the meantime I use my own money to get the refrigerator fixed. Save your money, buyers beware!

    I purchased an Allstate Protection Plan through SquareTrade, and I'm so glad that I did. Filing a claim on their website is quick and simple. I uploaded my Proof of Purchase/Receipt to their website and followed the instructions on how to "File a Claim". It only took a few days for it to be approved. I received and email with instructions on how to receive my claim payment and that was it. Thank you Allstate/SquareTrade for keeping it simple.

    It has been a long process and I still have not received confirmation that a replacement scooter has been shipped. I finally had to call APP/ST to get info and all they can tell me is that I will receive an email when a replacement has shipped. That was over a week ago and I just looked at the account and still no updates. That is the other issue - there are no updates on my account to keep me in the loop. Hopefully you send the replacement as I have always chosen to pay the extra for insurance for peace of mind.... It might not be worth the hassle of all of this back and forth and not knowing.

    Hello Santiago,

    We apologize for any delays you have experienced with your claim.

    SquareTrade does our best to provide our customers with resolutions that are both quick and convenient. When it comes to replacement claims, we aim to provide you with a product that is comparable and has the same features as your original item. At times, there could be a delay if the item is not readily available in our inventory since we would have to externally source the replacement. We are sorry that you did not receive a resolution in a timely manner and we understand why this can be frustrating.

    An Xbox controller's joystick stopped working. My son told me that once he pressed the joystick, it just kept going even if he would let go of the joystick. I contacted Allstate Protection Plans. They told me that it still had insurance through the manufacturer, but the manufacturer told me that they did not have warranty for it. So, Allstate told me, "No problem. We'll get it fixed." I was able to submit my claim with someone over chat. It was right there and then. Everything went smooth once I was able to talk to someone because if I did just the robot thing, I wouldn't get anywhere. The rep told me Allstate would send me the money back for the controller once I sent it.

    My computer suddenly stopped working. It wouldn't even turn on. The keyboard lit up, but that is all. I called and someone had me try several things and nothing worked, so they said I could send it for repairs at no cost to me. But, a few days later, before I had a chance to send it back one day it suddenly turned on and is working fine. I called and asked about getting my $125 copay back and they said no problem, and within an hour or two, my money was back in my checking account. It doesn't get any better than that. Will always do business with them, and will recommend them to my friends and family also.

    I’ve been with Allstate for the last two or three years since they started this program. It was an easy system. I get a protection plan on all my products if it's available. I did it on my glasses and frames for my vision.

    For my glasses, the first time I broke them coming in a door, Allstate gave me a check to go buy new ones. I have had to file a claim, and it was just simple. I just filled in the paperwork, and they sent me my check. I was happy with it. I did it by both phone and online, but doing it by phone was better because I'm technically challenged, and it wasn’t easy doing it online.

    I had an issue with a wheeled backpack luggage. It was just the wheels. They're in a big plastic wheel well, and they broke. There was no way for me to get replacements. I said that in the email, and Allstate sent me an $8 Walmart gift card. It probably took within four or five hours on the same day of doing the claim. It was really quick. Then I got a check for 77 more cents.

    It's a $52 product, but I bought it during Black Friday. It was on sale for about $15. Then I had issues with the shipping, so Walmart cut the price down to about $8. I was just like, “Hey, give me the money back," and then I just bought another one because my son uses it for school.

    The website is really quick and easy to use. I have a bunch of policies with them for products I've bought. The website showed all the ones that I have, and it is really easy to go through if I want to check the status of something.

    I've also had to get claims with them before. They used to be SquareTrade, and I've used it for computers and electronics. If I think it's like that thing with the luggage that I know is not going to last very long, I get that protection plan on it because it covers everything. I've always done it online and always gotten it. Now, there were a couple of times when I didn't have the option of getting a gift card from the company. Then I had to get a check, which I usually would have within at least 10 to 14 days, but I've always gotten my money in the time that they said.

    I had bought one of the little nugget ice-making machines at Walmart, they offered Allstate, and I got the three-year warranty. One week over the first year, the compressor quit working, so I went online to look how to file a claim and ended up calling. The first problem was I had changed email addresses, and I had to go through getting all that fixed, so I waited another month until after Christmas before I called back. It's a heavy machine, and I'm 75, and I was worried that I couldn't lift it to do whatever I was gonna have to do. When I called, the lady I spoke to told me to take it to an authorized dealer. I told her we live out in the country, and I’d be glad to try to get it to wherever she wanted me to get it to, but I need to know who because I didn’t know of anybody around here. She put me on hold for a couple of minutes while she tried to work on another alternative. When she came back, she told me they would just give me a full refund. After I got my refund, I went back in and purchased the same plan and I got the three-year warranty again.

    I have a history of being rough on phones. I don't mean I abuse them, but I’ve had a couple of instances where I dropped them, so it occurred to me that Allstate protection plan was a good investment, so I purchased it for my cellphone. The case began to swell up and continued to puff up and separate, and it appeared to me that the battery was swelling. I went on the website to submit a claim, and it was just a matter of clicking through the screens to report what had happened. It was hard to select things that exactly fit what my concern was because my particular issue was not in any of the drop-down boxes, and in the end, I just wrote it into a box. Allstate immediately approved it and told me they'd be sending me a phone, and that I was to send the other one back.

    I'm satisfied with my Allstate plan. It's just that I've been without a washer now for weeks. The Whirlpool washer doesn't stop running when it spins, so it gets hot and smells.

    As far as the claim and the people, they've all been very nice. I have no complaint about that. Submitting a claim was easy. I spoke to a representative, and it was great. They set up an appointment.

    According to the technician, the motherboard and the pump are out of it. I've been trying to get somebody out here for two weeks, and I got a message today that says they can’t help because the parts aren’t in.

    It’s not even two years old, and it's a piece of junk. I hate it. These new Whirlpool washers, they don't fill up with water. You can't wash your coat, pillow, rug, blanket, or anything like that in them. I've had to go to the laundromat since I've owned this washer more than I have my whole life.

    I have a coffee maker that does single cups and it drips for a pot. It's not producing a full cup, not even a quarter. The pot will drip half a pot. If you make eight cups, it will only give you four. I don't know what's going on. I've tried a new filter drip piece but it's not working. I don't know if it’s clogged up. When I sent the form to Allstate, I told them what type I had. Mine doesn't have a model number on it underneath, though, so the replacement unit that they were looking at giving me is a regular drip coffee maker and they’re telling me I can pull it out while it's dripping to pour me a cup of coffee. I don't want that. That means I have to make a whole pot, and I don't necessarily make a whole pot every day. They only gave me one option and I haven't agreed to the one that they found for me.

    I haven't gotten a response back. I just emailed them because I've been saying that I have to do it. I finally sent them an email and I let them know. I sent them a picture of what mine looks like, so if they can find one that looks like that, it will be great. Walmart still carries those, so it's out of stock or they don't carry those anymore. Filing the claim was fairly easy, though. As far as response back time, they said it’s 24 to 48 hours but I got a response back a few hours later, telling me that my claim was in process. It took two days before they came back and said, "This is a coffee maker that we found." When I clicked on the response, it was nothing like what I have.

    Allstate protection plan is very beneficial. It’s not only worth getting the insurance, but the comfort knowing that it's gonna be available as needed. I'm not big on buying warranty, but it's gotten me to where I will do it more now knowing that it's covering the product. The one that I did recently was in regard to an iO Series toothbrush. When I put the head on it, it wouldn’t spin and the brush wouldn't move, so there was something malfunctioning on the piece itself. They wanted me to send it in, and I went to FedEx, but they didn’t accept batteries and lithium items. So, I called back and go through customer support and that got handled really quick. I was routed to a gentleman that assisted me through the process, getting it escalated and getting a refund. My biggest worry with these things is whenever you take something out, you gotta jump through hoops and hollers. Bu it was very simplified. It wasn't difficult or hard, by no means. The process was seamless and extremely fast. They said 48 hours, but it was the same day I got the acknowledgement and receipt for the card.

I tried getting a replacement for my coffee maker, but after three days of waiting for tracking information and never receiving it, I reached out again and was informed that I was eligible for a compensation rather than a replacement product.

    I got the amount I spent for the maker, which I used to purchase a new coffee maker. I'm still waiting for it to come because the tracking information I received was actually for an invoice paper, not the actual coffee maker.

    I would suggest getting the protection plan like Allstate for things that are very valuable.

    We purchased a leather massage chair that has a remote. And since it was mechanical, we should definitely put a protection plan on it. And Allstate was offered when I ordered it online, from Wayfair.

    And right when COVID started, the inside of the back rollers stopped working. So, they told us they were gonna replace the chair. So, since it was under warranty, Allstate replaced the chair, or maybe Wayfair did. I can’t remember who did it at that time, but it was taken care of.

    And then recently, that chair had stopped working. I was in it, and it was massaging me, and I stopped it because it was finished, and it wouldn’t go down. It was stuck in a laying position. We couldn’t get it to go down. So, that’s when I reported the claim.

    They had a guy come out and look at it. And he said that he was gonna put in whatever he thought was wrong with it, and see if they could get the parts, and then he would be back to fix it. But I guess the parts were more than what they thought they were worth because they ended up refunding my money to me. They offered me a gift card or a check, and I would rather have a check than a gift card. So, they sent the check right away, and I got it. And then we got rid of the chair. We sent it to the dumpster. And it was fine.

    So, Allstate handled my claim really quickly. They were great. And they were perfect for us. I constantly received emails and updates. And I never had to sit and wait. So, everything went smoothly.

    Having the TV repaired through Allstate was easy. I just went through the emails from when I purchased the TV and got the information to contact them, and called them by phone. They were very professional about it.

    It was a 55-inch TV that wouldn't power on. They went through the basic troubleshooting steps with me and then scheduled a service visit. After we completed all those steps, then they contacted a local company to come out and provide on-site repair to the TV. The tech came out and knew that the power board needed repair. He had it here, showed me how to check it. here is actually a click that indicates that it's working. If it's working, it would click. So he had it swapped out and fixed in 15 minutes.

    The whole process took about a week. Now I wouldn't purchase a TV without getting a protection plan like Allstate for it. I think it's worth every penny for those protection plans.

    Review for Warranty Service – If I could give zero stars, I would. This warranty service has been nothing but a headache from start to finish. First, they shipped the replacement part without including my apartment number. FedEx even called them to fix the issue, but despite me also calling to follow up, they never corrected it. As a result, the part was delayed.

    Then, they rescheduled the service appointment two weeks later without notifying me—so not only did I have to rearrange my entire day to be available, but I had to wait an extra two weeks for a technician to even show up. When he finally arrived, he quickly realized that the part they sent was the wrong one. He assured me that he would notify the warranty company and that I’d receive a call with a new appointment. Two days passed—no call. I had to follow up myself, only to find out they had no record of the technician's visit or his report. They had to track him down and then get back to me.

    After all that, instead of actually fixing the problem, they emailed me generic cleaning procedures, which I had already done and had even told the technician about. When I called again, they claimed the technician told them to send me those instructions—completely false, since he had already diagnosed the issue as a sensor malfunction! What’s worse, they didn’t even take the time to understand my issue properly. My dryer works fine on the timer setting, but when I use programmed cycles, it doesn’t dry my clothes—clearly not a vent-cleaning issue. Yet they continued to waste my time with irrelevant steps instead of actually resolving the problem. Now, I’m once again waiting to see how they’ll mess this up next. Absolutely unprofessional and frustrating service.

    Allstate is a great company. I have a lot of warranty policies with them and I’ve never had an issue. They're very prompt and swift in their response to assist. It's been a good experience.

    But I have something that hasn’t been resolved. It was very easy to submit a claim via email, but that's as far as I've gotten. They were going to give me some instructions on how to troubleshoot because it’s just sitting here, not working. If that doesn’t work, then I’d have to call back.

    They sent me a copy of the email traffic, but I still don’t know any troubleshooting methods. It's been a little longer than a week already. I submitted it a while ago.

    I bought a PlayStation 4 controller, and I got the Allstate Protection Plans on it. And I filed a claim on it because the button stopped working. And the process of submitting a claim was good. I just went on the website, and it said I had to take it back to the manufacturer. So, I took it back to Walmart, and they refunded me, then I went online and bought another one. So, it’s really better to have insurance than not have it.

    The Allstate protection plan is amazing. It's a great investment if you're worried about the long-term life of a major purchase. We purchased it through Costco, and we choose the warranty whenever we make a major purchase because it’s peace of mind. I’ve had several claims, but the one I recently had was for a wine and beverage refrigerator. The mechanism broke on the arms. We called to file a claim, which was great, they had told us the process of getting a local repair person out, which they did, and then they attempted to order the parts to fix the drawers. The parts were on back order, indefinitely, and they were unable to fix it because they couldn’t get the parts. They offered a replacement, which they weren't able to replace it, and they ultimately decided to send us a check for the amount we paid.

    I got Allstate Protection Plans when I purchased my appliances for protection. I thought about warranties. They last only for a year and then you’re stuck with the appliance. I got warranties for the house and for the appliances. One time, our refrigerator had a crack in it behind the area in the door of the freezer where the water and the ice is. Our stove also had an issue. When we tried to clean the glass in the stove door, one of the bars holding it bent.

    The claim process with Allstate Protection Plans was very easy. I went online and filed the claim. They immediately emailed me back within a couple of hours asking for pictures. I uploaded the pictures and they responded quickly, gave me a claim number, and said they sent a repair person out for both appliances. The repair people made an appointment to come out and repair it. The technician checked the appliances out. Allstate Protection Plans accepted the claim and gave the claim number. They were going to send the technician back when the parts came, but instead they sent me a new email saying that they had decided to handle the claim differently and would be sending me a check for what I paid for the product.

    I purchased an Acer Chromebook from Walmart and bought the plan from Allstate. I had to have it recently fixed because I wasn't thinking. I had it sitting on my desk and thought I'd pushed back enough and it was open. We got a year-old puppy and she was having one of her crazy-running-through-the-house moments like bouncing off the walls. She accidentally hit the desk and the table, and the Chromebook hit the ground and shattered the screen.

    To file the claim, I did it all online. I'm technically challenged but the process was easy and self-explanatory. I had to message someone from Allstate because I wasn't sure if my warranty was still good, and thank God it's still is until April. It was really quick shipping the Chromebook, they received it, and I would get updates. It was pretty quick getting it back, too. It was a little delayed because of the snow, but nothing really major. I've recommended Allstate. My mom is thinking about getting something from Walmart, and it's actually covered by Allstate, too. I was like, “You might as well go ahead and get them.” The price is reasonable, too. Everybody's been nice and very respectful at Allstate.

    I have a bunch of products with protection plans. Whenever it gets to a certain price criteria that I pay for, that's when I deem it's worthy of an insurance plan. I had to file a claim with Allstate for an e-scooter I purchased as a gift for a child this past summer. It's no different than filing an insurance claim with your car, but it still has its minor hurdles with the algorithm. If you file your claim online, the algorithm is gonna tell you that your product is still under manufacturer warranty. My manufacturer's warranty was only for 90 days and it malfunctioned after that. I had to reach out and speak to someone to clarify. They gave me options that same day.

    For the replacement, that doesn't work too well either because it doesn't meet the price of whatever it is that you had. That's why I say that part of their system needs to be worked on. I know that they're in the service of trying to cut down the time and all, but searching for that replacement may be better, because all three of my choices were nowhere close to the price point of what my product cost. The next day, they sent me a card for my receipt and what I paid for it, and then I just purchased that same scooter. When I bought that scooter, I also bought a protection plan for it.

I put the information into the Allstate portal but also got no response.

When I first called to make a claim, I can understand that I had to give them a receipt number and everything. But once I gave them that, they didn't file a claim like they said they would. They made me call back after two weeks to find out what was going on. They kept giving me the runaround to the point where I went back to Target where I purchased it and complained. And they kept saying, "Well, there's nothing we can do." So, I felt like I was stuck. Because I paid for this service, but the service is not honoring me.

I felt some kind of way because I paid extra money for the coverage but didn't get to use it. After waiting a week, they sent me the wrong piece. It wasn’t a controller. Now we're a month in. I sent it back, then they sent me a controller. It was an inconvenience. I actually went and bought another controller while waiting, and I definitely didn’t pay for Allstate on that one.

    The couch is ripped and the underneath is torn apart. The cushions and batting are ruined, and the wood has been chewed on because of my dog and her puppies.

    I submitted a claim with Allstate and they asked all the questions and told us exactly what to do. They were helpful in that part and got back to us right away. They said I could only send in one or two pictures, but one or two pictures don’t cover everything. They said, “Okay, we’ll submit it.” They asked if both sides were ruined, and I said yes. I explained what happened, and the representative said, “Okay. In a couple days, you’ll get a response back stating whatever.” He asked for my address like I was going to have something delivered, so I thought they were going to replace it.

    I talked to another lady and she said, “We’re going to send the cleaning kit first and see if that works.” I told them it’s not going to fix the problem, but she kept saying, “This is what we do first.” She made us believe that this was the first step, and if it didn’t work, then we could submit again.

    So they sent me a cleaning kit and it didn’t work. I never followed back up because I already got the runaround the first time. A cleaning kit doesn’t fix the wood, the cushions, or the ripped parts. Submitting again would mean taking pictures and only being able to show one or two things, which doesn’t cover everything. I felt like I was still gonna get nowhere.

    Target only offered Allstate warranties. And after buying two products neither had a good solution. The first was a PS5, and less than a year after having it we discovered the disc drive doesn’t working. After calling both Target and Allstate back and forth for about 2 hours the solution was to go through Sony because it hadn’t been a year yet. Allstate refused to honor the first year of my 2 year warranty.

    Next was a new controller purchased for the ps5. Allstate made me purchase a new controller, and then added a deductible so I couldn’t even get all the money back for the controller. If I had 80 bucks to blow on controllers I wouldn’t have even bought the warranty to begins with. Safe to say I will be doing more research and doing my best to avoid buying any electronics that do warranties through Allstate in the future.

Bad customer service and long wait times for refunds!! It should not be so hard to file a claim on an item that has an extended warranty. Do not use this company!

Turn it on and hear a pop. Then the screen comes on and it looked like someone had pushed their thumb into it with pixels out and lines in it. But guess what. My protection plan doesn't cover this because they stated the pictures showed something hit the tv. They stated that they do not offer coverage for accidental damage. I offered to give them the video I had on my camera system showing no physical damage had happened and they told me there was no need.

    I purchased a protection plan from Allstate for my Fitbit watch. I was pretty cautious with this one because I’ve had these in the past. The reason why I can’t use it anymore is because there’s a snap on each side of the watch face where the bands attach to.

    One day, I went to take the band off of it, and the little spring that’s inside of it that 's like a push button would not pop back up. I put it in some warm water, gave it a shake, and blew it out with some canned air. The little button did not pop back up. That’s when I put in the Allstate claim, and sent it back.

    The claim process was trouble-free and easy. Everything went extremely well. I used the claim, and I bought another watch, but I didn’t buy another FitBit because the bands are kind of hokey, and I've had some other problems with it.

    I'm pretty tough on equipment like watches, cellphones, laptops, and anything that's electronic. I try to be careful with it. Sometimes, I really don't care if it lasts. I probably make a lot of my own problems by treating things too good. So the idea of going back to the Allstate Protection Plans is a really good investment for what I pay for it. I get 3 year plans on them, and it's well worth it.

    I couldn’t be any more satisfied with Allstate Protection Plans. There’s not a level that I could be more satisfied with.

I said, "Ok I will take option #2 from the original choices." (Had a screenshot saved.) They say that option is not available either. "Your only option is the one that you do not want." Additionally The TV I don't want has a 1 year warranty BUT two year warranty if I register it - they would not give me the necessary info to register it.

    Despite providing proof that my receipt clearly showed I purchased a furniture plan, they refused to assist me, insisting their system showed otherwise.

    Within 14 months time we had to have our (less than) 5-year-old GE refrigerator serviced. The first time the ice maker quit working and Allstate paid to have it repaired. Now, just before Christmas, the freezer quit working. Our local repairman diagnosed freon leaks, and failing compressors and evaporators. Within 5 days the fridge quit working as well. The repairs would cost more than what we paid for the fridge! Originally Allstate suggested replacing it with the same model. I told them I didn't want another GE product!

    They sent me a check for the entire purchase price so that we could buy a different make and model. I will never buy another major appliance without buying an extended warranty. Allstate was easy to deal with and helped expedite our claim so that we could buy a replacement locally instead of waiting for another one to be shipped to us. We already received our check last week for the service call and today received the check to replace the unit. I highly recommend Allstate/Square Trade extended warranties!

    It's what I expected, and I got what I was hoping for. Allstate protection plan was offered when I purchased my washer dryer. I purchased it from Nebraska Furniture Mart and since it was new technology, I asked for it up front ‘cause I wanted to have something to protect it. I wasn’t certain about its reliability, so it was a backup just in case and Allstate matched what my mental model was. They gave me the information, covered decent basic stuff, so I thought it was a good deal. Doing the claim was straightforward. No issues that I can remember. I got it registered, put it in there, it was electronic back and forth for a little bit until a repair person was gonna come out and take a look at it. The washer dryer combo was at the place where my children lived. I called the number to set up a time, they were able to arrange it, and it all worked out well, no hassle. I wasn’t the one who really talked to them but based on everything my eldest daughter told me about, it went fine. The people came out, took care of it and the problem was resolved.

    Allstate did very well. I tried to get the claim done over Christmas break and missed it by one day, which wasn’t a big deal. Given the holidays, the response time was acceptable, and I had no issues with that.

    They repaired the computer screen and some of the casing. They did a good job. They provided the envelope and everything needed. The process was straightforward, quick, and easy.

    I got the warranty because it was a refurbished item on eBay and I wanted to make sure if there was any problem, I would be protected. I made a claim online and it was very quick. Allstate gave me an option for refund and something else and I took the refund option. I wasn’t given the full value of the item, but it was money back to go towards buying a new one. I got another one, and I had to put some more money into it. But it was great.

    I got a few items from Allstate. The latest one was a 2,000-watt AI power generator with propane and gas, a small unit I can lug around. I bought a three-year protection plan with it, and it quit on me seven months before the warranty was up.

    It took me forever to get around to getting a hold of Allstate, but I did before the warranty expired. I was instructed to take it to a repair shop and get a quote. They wrote it up and I gave it to the claims adjusters, who said it wasn’t feasible to repair it. At first, they gave me $53 back, which was the amount I paid to have the item looked at. I said that didn’t seem fair because they weren’t giving me the replacement price back. I tried again, and it went to dead air a couple of times.

    The last time, I sent all the information, and the lady stayed on the line, got somebody above her to look at it and got it approved. I got $405 back as a Walmart gift card, so I’m happy enough. I know they’ve got to do the due diligence. It just took a little work.

    When I purchased my laptop, Allstate Protection Plans was offered. It’s very valuable to have. I made two claims for the laptop. First, the screen broke so I filed it online and it was quick and easy. They were able to fix it. But during the scond time, they replaced it. They gave me a payout and I purchased a new one. I only had $1 out of the pocket charge. I had a great experience with Allstate. They are fast, efficient and has a good price.

    Allstate Protection Plans was offered through where I purchased the items. I have two claims with them. One was a GE Opal ice maker, and the other was a milk frother.

    The milk frother stopped working. When you hit the power button, it was not powering on. I filed the claim through the website and it was easy. I had to call them because I needed more information. They said that they would give me a replacement. That was in November, and I'm still waiting on a replacement.

    The ice maker started off with the same way. I initiated the claim online and since they needed more information, I called them. They evaluated it and said that they were going to issue a maintenance request, and that I was going to pay up-front for the maintenance request, that if it was higher than the cost of the item, they would issue a replacement item. If not, they would issue me a refund based on what I had to pay out.

    At this point, I'm still waiting on a frother, and I've got to call someone to come look at the ice maker. And I'm a little dismayed that I've got to pay out-of-pocket and then get reimbursed, versus them issuing a maintenance person to come look at it himself.

    I used Allstate to replace my watch that got damaged. Submitting the claim was easy. At first, I wasn't satisfied with Allstate because it looked like the watch they sent me for a replacement was something that was refurbished and it came in a little bubble pack and didn't fit my old bands. So I had to communicate again with Allstate and they did resolve it. I just received the product yesterday and everything's fine now.
