Friendly and knowledgeable. They helped me obtain my refund as fast as they could. I just wish sometimes they could be a little quicker on the weekends and holidays in responding. Overall, my concerns were addressed and resolved in a caring and professional way.

I have used Allstate for many products. My claim was easy and the resolution was the perfect outcome. Am very happy with the end result. I filed my claim and got a solution within 24hrs. Fast easy and very satisfactory. Agent was great also.

Aside from the frustration of being forced to give info to an AI agent that didn't relay anything to the human agent when they picked up, the process was easy and generally clear. I was given my reimbursements for spoiled food and service tech call in a timely fashion once I submitted the receipts. I would not buy a major appliance built today without a coverage plan.

It took several calls to be able to speak with a representative to file my claim. Unable to do it online. Once I was able to speak to a person, they were very helpful and knowledgeable. But all in all I am satisfied with the outcome.

I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Allstate Protection Plans and SquareTrade. From the moment I filed my claim to the day I received my laptop back, the entire process was smooth, professional, and well communicated. The repair was completed quickly, and my laptop was returned in excellent working condition. One thing I was especially concerned about was my SSD and personal data. They returned my SSD exactly as expected, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. I really appreciated the care they took with my device throughout the process. This was my first time filing a claim, and the experience exceeded my expectations from start to finish. I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase another Allstate Protection Plan in the future and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable device protection.

Very very very poor service and help with a claim. Just filling & getting a repair guy to come was a nightmare & then he wouldn't come back. Said it was too far 'cause I live out in the country. They finally sent someone else who took half the parts with him in box instead of installing. AND THEN IT BROKE AGAIN & THE WARRANTY HAD RAN OUT SO THEY SAY THEY WON'T HONOR ANYTHING!!!
Hello K L,
We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with your recent experience.
SquareTrade protection plans are extended service plans that start at the same time as the original manufacturer's warranty. This concurrent coverage ensures continuous protection for customers, eliminating any lapse in coverage. Our aim is to provide reassurance by safeguarding against mechanical and electrical breakdowns, particularly after the manufacturer's warranty has ended or if they cannot offer assistance during their warranty period. We understand the frustration this situation may have caused.
At this moment, one of our specialists has contacted you to discuss this matter and offer further support.
Thank you,AA

The washing machine recently stopped draining. I was pleasantly surprised when I filed the claim with Allstate. They called me once, and they connected me with a service person. He communicated excellently when he would come within the 10-minute range. It was done at a house that I don't live in right now, and he did an excellent job. Explained everything, was very quick, cleaned up.

Everything was successful. Allstate replaced the tv in a week. However, it was the lowest of the low, quality-wise. They didn't make our previous one anymore. It was five years old. The replacement was equal to that but there were a lot better ones. But I'm happy.

Submitting a claim with Allstate was easy. I just went online. I ended up having to call and talk to somebody about it. They handled it nicely. They compensated me. They said that it was still under the extra warranty that I had purchased. And they also said if I had any other questions, to let them know. Everything worked out well. It was also faster than I expected. Their price was good too. I was very pleased.

I purchased a canopy. The cashier asked if I'd like the protection plan. I purchased the plan. I tried to file a claim this last week. First Walmart sold us an electronic policy. It took about a week to fix that. I finally was able to file a claim. It was accepted and by email told a replacement was on its way. The next day I received an email that stated the claim was denied as the damage was weather related. What other damage can happen to a canopy???? I'm out the cost of the canopy that only was used for 2 months and the cost of the policy. Thanks Allstate AND walmart for absolutely nothing.

I filed a claim for my son's laptop. He sat on the laptop. I went online and started the process. It was fairly easy. But I don't like that if you don't complete it and you have to stop for some reason, you have to go back and start over. Also, it annoyed me that if you're having a hard time with assigning the serial number, there's no option to say, ‘Hey, I don't know the serial number.” But for the most part, the process is pretty simple. Another thing is that I would like to have more access to be able to get to customer support. It seems like you have to search and search for a number to be able to get to customer service. It's not readily available. When you're trying to say I need more help or something like that, it's always chat. People don't always wanna chat with the bots.
The outcomes are good when I file a claim. I'm usually satisfied with the outcome. But in a lot of cases with some of the items, they'll try to have you take the item somewhere to be repaired and then they reimburse you. I don't like that. All in all, it's good to purchase the plans. I told a coworker that on certain appliances, they should purchase the protection plan through Allstate. In a lot of the Allstate plans, accident is included. So, when I'm spending a lot of money on certain things for my son, it's just a must that I have to get the protection plan because 9 times out of 10, something is gonna happen where he accidentally breaks it. If I'm spending a lot of money on an ice machine or small kitchen appliances, the protection plan is something that you should get. It's worth the money.

My experience with Allstate was great. I had a claim for my door lock’s keypads. I was assisted online. They called me. I had to do some stuff with the lock online and make sure it worked or wasn't working. And we did feedback back and forth, and then they closed it out pretty quickly. I didn't have to wait a week or two, ‘cause you can't take a lock off of a door until you have a new one. I had to go purchase the other one first before.
But I did have the claim closed out before I purchased it. It was a little bit of a time constraint doing all that. It was relatively quick. Then I opted for the check payment in the mail to reimburse, ‘cause I had already paid it through my credit card online. I didn't wanna have to spend it. And it worked out fine. As soon as I got it packed up and sent off to them or returned, as soon as it clicked as being sent through FedEx or UPS, they processed the payment. It's just very convenient having Allstate, and I'm glad they have it through Home Depot. ‘Cause I purchase it every time I have an option to.

My Whirlpool refrigerator quit cooling Thursday night 7/2/2026 and by Friday morning the food in my freezer was defrosted and items in the upper portion warm. I called Allstate and was given a Claim #**, and told to call back Monday 7/6 to set repair. I started calling at 7:02 am on 7/6 and have been bounced from Allstate to SquareTrade, to Whirlpool, back to Allstate. I have spoken with numerous agents at all 3 companies. Somewhere along the line the Claim ID was changed to the one ending in 37. I kept getting emails from Allstate to call and when I tried, the whole process started all over. I got great lip-service from the agents saying such things as "let me connect you to our team for an appointment". Then I would be disconnected.
Finally, out of desperation, I called the Whirlpool certified repair company to make an appointment myself. They came out on 7/8 and assessed the problem indicating they would have to order parts. I paid their fee of $162.32 and requested reimbursement. They are hoping to have the parts by Monday 7/20/2026. I have now been without a refrigerator for 2 weeks tomorrow. Somewhere there is a serious flaw in your system when it comes to your Protection Plan.
Hello Candis Townsend,

SquareTrade protection plans are designed to provide confidence and peace of mind by helping when mechanical or electrical failures occur, particularly after the manufacturer's warranty has expired, when the manufacturer is unable to assist, or when out-of-pocket service charges have been incurred. In situations where the manufacturer is unable to provide support, we are committed to reviewing the circumstances and exploring all available options to ensure you receive the assistance you need.

I bought an LG refrigerator, and I bought an Allstate plan for it because of the size and the brand. I had to file a claim when the freezer wouldn’t defrost. It was pretty easy to file the claim. The customer service team was good. There was a lot to go through because there were several claims on top of one another because of the refrigerator. Then it didn't get fixed, and I had to get a new refrigerator, and the new refrigerator is of lesser value than the first refrigerator. It's making a loud sound, and I don't know who to call. I don't even know if it has a warranty like the first one did. So, I'm kind of off about it right now.

Response was immediately after submitting my claim. Stacy ** was my claims adjuster. She was very professional and eager to help. Not for a chance did she give me a hard time or was difficult to work with. Extremely pleasant and productive. She explained to me my options and timeline regarding my claim. If every claim specialist worked at her pace and professionalism the world would be a nicer place. Allstate insurance was prompted and I literally have no complaints.

I purchased Allstate for a TV through Costco and I filed a claim when I noticed the black line that was running down the side of the TV. I wasn't sure why. So, I took pictures and sent them to Allstate. Their process was good and very simple. I was able to go on the website and it was very easy to file the claim. Then they emailed me back right away and I provided the information that they were asking for. They got back to me and they were able to resolve it really quickly.
