I filed a claim with Allstate for eyeglass lenses that were scratched. I did it through Sam's, where I purchased the glasses. I was having another set done, and they told me that my lenses were scratched. I had them inspect them, and they assisted me with what I needed to do. The process was easy and I got replacement of the lenses. Allstate credited me a credit with Sam's. I took that credit back to Sam's, and they sent the prescription in to have the new lenses made. Then they put them in the frames, called me and told me to come pick them up.

I got an Allstate plan with the lawnmower that I purchased. I had to file a warranty claim on it. One day, I went to start the lawnmower, and it wasn't pulling the cord back. So, I took off the top to see if I could see through the metal grid a bit better. It's called like a starter pull. It was getting caught. There's this metal fan that spins to start it, and when I pulled it back, it would eject partially out of the cylinder, and it would get caught on the metal. I filed that to them with that information. I just did it all online with the text messaging with the agent.
I got a refund for it. It's probably because it would have cost about the same if I just sent it to them. It would have to be sent to them, repaired, and then sent back to me. It's like a $240 lawnmower. It's not a very expensive lawnmower. I was looking into just getting it repaired myself, and it said online that it can cost $100 to $150 just to get it repaired. It was ridiculous. That's why they just refunded it.

When I purchased my washer and dryer, there was an option for an extended warranty with Allstate. So, I did it through Costco's website. When I had a claim, I had an excellent experience. I made the phone call first, then they sent me an email with a link, so I would be able to see what was my claim status. They were pretty fast and they sent professionals who were able to repair the damaged washer that I had. And so far, it's been great.

I purchased the warranty for my grandson's tablet. I made a claim online when the power button quit working. The process was a little confusing. Then they sent me a cheap tablet, because they replaced this tablet with a cheaper tablet, and that tablet's broken. It's not the same tablet, and that tablet's already broken. He had it for a day, and it broke.

I submitted a claim for a mini electric stove. I was working with it. I fully charged the batteries, and they just lasted for five minutes. They just ran out of power on both batteries. I called Walmart first, ‘cause I purchased that item there. As I purchased the protection plan, they told me that I have to start doing that procedure with Allstate, and I was directed to their web page. But with my claim, I had to do it five times ‘cause I wasn't able to do it. It was something with their system. ‘Cause I followed the same procedure that the web page has, and at some point, it got kind of stuck, and I couldn't keep going on till the fifth time.
I called Allstate. I got the number from the internet. And they told me that they don't do this kind of claim, and they gave me another phone. And I called that phone, but it wasn't in their business hours. But eventually, they covered the price of the stove. It helped me to buy another stove ‘cause I need it right here at home. The protection plan worked, but it took a lot of time to do it.

The stove’s board for the digital display kept going out and this was the second time it happened. When I called Allstate Protection Plans, I knew what to do because I'd done it the last time, so I went through all the steps that they tell you to do, shut the breaker off, leave it off for so long and turn it back on. You have to do a video with them so they can see you do it. But I already knew what was wrong with it because it did the exact same thing it did the first time. It's annoying to have to go through all those steps with customer service, but they do the job.
The first time it happened, Herb Snow & Sons came out and repaired the issue. It was under the manufacturer's warranty and the part was sent to them. The guy showed up here with it and he was here for about 30 minutes, and had it fixed. This time, the claim was under our extended warranty and another appliance company came out. They sent just the housing. So, they had to reorder the part and send it back out. It took another week, and then it came out. The guy installed it, and it's fine now, though it took three weeks to get it done. Probably in another six months, we'll go through it again. I'm glad we got the protection plan with Allstate, because if I didn’t have it, I would have had to pay for that myself. So, it's worth it. They covered exactly what they said they'd cover.

I filed a few claims to Allstate, and the process was pretty simple. At one point, they used to require certain things to be sent back, which was a little bit of a pain, because they were bigger items, but sometimes they don't. It just depends on what the item is. The process is pretty quick, but it does take between one and two weeks.

I filed a claim with Allstate for my washer. They came out and fixed it. They found the problem. It was a bobby pin from my hair that was in my pocket that went to the washer and jammed up the machine. Glad it was fixable. The repair person who came was really helpful and professional. I would recommend Allstate because it went pretty smoothly. I feel like there weren't any hitches or unexpected issues. It's been worth having that policy.

We signed up for a warranty through Home Depot. We bought several appliances and warranties for each. Just recently tried to file a claim on our dishwasher, finally found all the necessary paperwork, and the receipt we provided wasn't good enough because it wasn't itemized. Isn't it YOUR job to collect the necessary info when the warranty is registered?? If the receipt is wrong, maybe you should work with home Depot to have them create the correct kind of receipt. The item was 4.5 years old; we can't exactly ask for a new receipt. Will not buy another warranty through AllState again!

I've been with Allstate for years but it ain't worth it. There were a few times I had to go through some hoops. But the last few times that I used them, they did really well. Most of the issue is with the TV people. You have to go through all kinds of hoops, and they don't want to help you. But Allstate always came through. It was just the people at the factory.

I made a claim with Allstate for the ice machine that quit producing ice, and it was great. They were going to replace it, but they said they couldn't find that model so they just cut a check. We got a check right away and bought a new one. Ice machines don't seem very reliable. We've had three and I think I found the trick. We need to use purified water. We used the distilled water. Hopefully, this will last long. I got extended warranty on it too. Allstate is worth the money for some things. It covered what I paid for so it's great. The price is right in line with what I've seen of other companies as well. I'm very satisfied and glad I have Allstate.

My experience with Allstate was very good. I purchased it for my dishwasher. We had an experience with a dishwasher previously. And with protection, it helped us resolve problems. Also, financially, it was a better option to go with. When I filed a claim, they called, we scheduled a time, and they came to have a look at the machine, and then they fixed it. They tried to repair it a few times, but it didn't get repaired, so then they replaced it. They were very professional, they knew what to do, and they came and did the job.

My refrigerator kept showing an FI9 code and wasn't making ice, and the door wasn't closing right. It had a whole lot of things going on. The claim process was long. I had to make several calls to get somebody to respond. But after I got the ball rolling, it got better. The technician came out and told me what I needed to do. They already had the equipment with them, and they fixed everything. Everything is working fine now. I have Allstate with everything. It’s a good company and they’ve always been there for me. Sometimes, they’re a little delayed but it doesn’t mean it’s denied. Allstate could make the process a little quicker. When their customers are telling them something, they should make sure that they’re clear, so the customers understand that they don't have to call anymore or whether they just need to call one more time.

I got an Allstate protection plan for an Apple watch. It was the 7 Series, and it worked fine until it stopped working. Allstate kept saying that they couldn't repair it.

Two steps into three of the receipt of my claim payment. I found the online uploading of my claim receipt to be simple and it was acknowledged immediately by the protection plan. Step two receiving approval of reimbursement for the claim was a little more difficult. I did not receive the described email confirming approval but a message online that told me I had to speak to a chat agent. This second step was relatively easy and the chat line confirmed approval of my receipt. Step three receiving the check is yet to be completed. The chat message stated that seven or more days for the process to be completed. We’ll See.

To begin with, I want yo say that the representatives are always nice. Submitting a claim is an entirely different matter. First of all, on the website, you have to submit a receipt for the item you have purchased the plan for. SquareTrade has information about your purchase of the plan, how much you paid for the plan, and what item the plan is for, so I can't believe that Sam's, Costco, or the company you bought the product from hasn't already provided SquareTrade with a receipt. I'm older, but I don't remember having to provide a receipt years ago. Before Allstate SquareTrade used to be easy to deal with, but now they are impossible. My latest issue was with a dryer that when on auto dry would not turn off unless you manually stopped it - most likely a moisture sensor issue.
They insisted on emailing me a list of diagnostic items I had to complete. I called them to complete the claim and was still on the phone for almost an hour and had to once again perform other diagnostic items and answer the same questions again before they finally submitted the claim and said they would send someone to look at it. They are going to send parts ahead of time. How do they know what parts are needed until a service person looks at it? I really think their intention is to wear you down so you don't pursue a claim. This same scenario has happened with the last 3 items I have purchased a plan for. I would give them negative stars if I could. I will not be buying a plan from them again.

The hot tub had started leaking and the lights weren't working. The cover of the top of the sauna also had a little leak. So, every time you inflate it, the air will come out, and it will just sit on the water and make the water dirty. I tried to fix it myself by patching it. It was one of the things that the Allstate rep said I could try to do when I made the claim. But it wasn't working.
Filing the claim was easy but I had to wait for a while to get a response. I was told at first that they were gonna send me somewhere to get it fixed, and I waited for a week and a half. And when I called Allstate, the rep said they couldn't find anyone who would do it. I said that was the same thing I told them when they asked me to look for someone. No one around my area did that kind of work. I sent Allstate pictures of what I have already done, and they said that most likely, they're gonna try to give me the money. The protection plan is a good thing to have because you don't wanna spend your money and then have things like this kind of issue arise, especially with big purchases.

I filed an Allstate warranty claim on a handheld gaming device. It was a Game Boy Retro that has 15,000 games on it. Getting the claim initiated was simple.

I have a front-loading washing machine, and there was water that was coming out of the door. Where you pulled out to put your detergent in, there was water coming out of there. The sprayer, where the water comes out to get your detergent out of there, had gotten clogged up with hard water stuff. The contractor just replaced all of that since it was under warranty.
Allstate set up an independent contractor to whom they contract the work out to. And then that person is the one who came and worked on it. But, they're the ones that took the information and set up the appointment with this other company that then came out. And they emailed me and texted me all the time to let me know what was going on. They did a great job. Also, the price wasn't that much at all for a five-year warranty.
Now, the person who came out, when he came back, maybe he was just having a bad day. His big thing was that I did everything wrong with the washing machine, and that's what caused it. I finally looked at him, and I told him, "You will fix this while it's still under warranty, or else I will call them and get somebody else out here to fix it.” Then he ordered the parts for me, and he came back. That first experience wasn't good. But that has nothing to do with Allstate.

An Allstate protection plan came with one of the electronics that I purchased. I had to file a claim when it quit working. Filing the claim took a little while, but it ended up working out all right. Over the phone, the assistance was good, and then I had some email and some texting, too. I ended up getting the item replaced because of the repair time, and the city here could not find a place to repair it. The estimated time to get it in for repair was like four weeks, and we expedited it with a link to just choose a brand-new one being shipped.

I purchased a protection plan for a Samsung stove. It started having some issues, a year and a half after getting it. I will have it at one temperature, and I'll lower it, and then I don't know where the temperature would just go up on its own. We did some troubleshooting at that point, and we reset it or rebooted the stove. It was okay for a little while, then it started with the same issues again. I called again. They came, and they attempted to fix it. They were going to order some parts for it, but I guess the parts were too expensive, and so they gave me the funds back for it.
Allstate's customer service wasn't too bad. Everybody I've spoken with is very friendly. They take their time to listen to you and explain things. I just think they make you go through too many hoops and loops, like troubleshooting, instead of sending somebody who actually knows what they're doing to do this stuff. I'm not a technician. I know nothing about stoves. They should just send somebody out who knows how to do the troubleshoot and figure out exactly what's wrong with it. But having an extended warranty is very beneficial in situations like this. Most of the time, I never even use the warranty, but I always get it just in case, and I'm glad I do.

When I bought the Allstate plan, I thought the plan was going to be provided by a very local company or local Allstate facility. I moved to Chattanooga, Tennessee, and that's when I purchased the two appliances. And not knowing anybody where I go, that sounds the perfect way. What was the strangest thing of everything was trying to coordinate the inspection versus the troubleshooting of everything.
It took forever. It took almost a week, troubleshooting back and forth. They sent a part, but it was not the right part. The person who needed to service the machine was not even in Chattanooga. It was not even in Tennessee. It was coming from Atlanta, Georgia. So, just coordinating all that, it was just a big snafu. They only had two days a week when they could come. And that time, it was hard. It was very difficult just to be able to receive the service during that period. It took almost a month to be able to fix that.
And it took the second trip. The repair person who came was the one who finally fixed it, and he did a great job. But the logistics really sucked, coordinating that repair. And the troubleshooting service that they have is an automated system, and they have to answer the questions exactly the way they are asked and provide the answer. Whether you have additional information, that doesn't mean anything because it disregards it. So that automated system was also a flop. And that's how I ended up having the repairman finally come into the house and bring the wrong part after a whole two weeks of going back and forth.

I always buy Allstate. Their process is easy. I do it mostly online, and sometimes when I have to reach out to a representative, they are very helpful. They give me an option of either choosing a replacement item or receiving a check reimbursement, and I chose a replacement item.

I bought the Allstate protection plan at the same time I bought the dishwasher and when it kept coming up with an error code, I called either Home Depot or Allstate. The reps were trying to walk me through ways to fix it but it didn’t work, so they told me to just get anyone over to look at the dishwasher to see if they can fix it. A guy came over and he said it was going to cost $1,000 to fix it. I paid only a little over $800 for it when I bought it, and the people at Allstate told me not to have the guy do it if the repair costs more than the actual unit. So, I didn’t have him do it. I called Allstate and we proceeded with the paperwork, and they refunded me. People should get the protection plan. I was thinking the claims process was gonna be an awful experience. But it was good. The only negative about it was that it took a while to get to talk to a real person.

That worked out perfectly. It took a little bit of time though. The system was saying it would take two to five days, but it took a little more, which was fine. But on one of the steps when I was filing the claim, I couldn't go back to give more details through the system, and these details were important. There's a chat box and I chatted with their agent, and he was able to do this for me. I wish there was a capability for me to edit the claim.

I bought a washer and dryer about two and a half years ago from Home Depot, and I liked the thought of having the coverage past the manufacturer's coverage date, which is this year. So, I bought the Allstate protection plan from them as well. When I had water accumulating under the detergent door and running down the side of the unit to the floor, it was easy to file a claim through a phone call. The only thing was that the person I spoke to asked me to check the hose. I said I couldn’t and I asked her to send somebody here.
I was connected to a company that wound up without any communication at all. The man was extremely rude. I was supposed to have a 10 AM to 12 o'clock noon window. And at 3:30 in the afternoon, he showed up without any apology or any consideration. I told him he was three and a half hours past his window and I've sat here my entire day waiting for him. There was no response. It made me angry that he didn't even have the decency to say he was sorry or that he got tied up. So, I cancelled the appointment. I told him the service was poor. And he left.
I called Allstate back and rescheduled. I said I didn’t want that company and that person to come again, and to schedule me with someone else. And they did. On Day Two, the one that they scheduled didn't come in at all. I found the text that they're coming on Sunday morning. So, I called back and asked if they made a mistake. It's not an emergency and I asked why they were bringing somebody out on a Sunday. I thought it was going to cost more money to do that. And they said that's the way it is. But the repair person did not show up at all, and I was annoyed. These service plans are either not what they were, or this is a crappy one. They automatically, without even calling me, rescheduled me. I got an automated message on Sunday night that the techs are coming on Monday between 10:00 and 12:00. This time, I was sitting and waiting. My husband and I were doubtful. At 12 o'clock, no one was here.
I called Allstate back again and asked if someone was coming. I told them it was the third time and I was waiting for somebody. So, the rep said she would call them and would let me know. She called back to say that the tech was late but he would be here. The guy came. But he also didn't speak at all. There was no discussion. No communication. I showed him where the leak was coming from. I had taken a video of it, and he opened it up and looked. He said he didn’t see anything wrong and that it was dry, and he left. He documented that he couldn't find anything leaking. I did laundry, and water was coming out from the drawer where you put the detergent. It was dripping down from there but I could still use the machine.
I got an email from Allstate saying they couldn't fix it or couldn't find anybody to send out. I couldn't understand that. They gave me the authority to hire somebody on my own and said that they would reimburse me for the cost of the visit, as well as the parts. I called a repair person, and I am waiting for him to find the time to come here to do it. So, I haven't even had it fixed yet. Allstate texted me, and if I agreed to find somebody on my own, they would send me $100. I have 30 days to get somebody here to correct the issue. I came away from thinking that protection plans are useless. I was not feeling good about it. It just seems surprising to me that the guy couldn't figure it out. But I feel as though I can count on Allstate to resolve my issue and support me through this. I feel confident that Allstate will stand by this and straighten it out.

I submitted a claim with Allstate because the bottom of my LG refrigerator stopped making ice and it was not freezing. We had an error code that said FF on it. The guy came out. He replaced the fan assembly down in the freezer, which includes two fans, and he said a thermostat. It was all one big piece. He replaced it. I asked him before he left if he could turn the refrigerator back on. He didn't even plug it back in, so that concerned me. He left around 6:30 that night, and in the morning, when I woke up, there was a really loud noise coming from my kitchen, and it ended up being the replacement part. Really loud, and it was not cooling correctly again.
Now, it's not just my freezer, but my refrigerator is not cooling properly. Because we keep the thermostats in both of them, and it was 46 degrees in my refrigerator, and it was set for 36. I let them know it’s making a really loud noise, and it’s now the refrigerator and the freezer are not cooling properly. The guy came back from the same company, and he asked me if there was a fan in the refrigerator. I was thinking he should know this. But I was polite, and I said, “I have no idea. But my husband, who's a mechanic, said that the noise is coming down below in the back, where the parts that you replaced.” He said, “No, I think it's coming from up above the refrigerator.” He asked me if there's a refrigerator fan. I said, “I don't know, but I can try to pull a schematic up on the refrigerator.” He said, “Oh, no. I think it's the refrigerator fan.”
I said, “I don't. This noise just started after you replaced this piece. And if you pull the fridge out from the wall and put your head down there, you'll hear that it's coming from down below.” Long story short, he took everything back out. My husband felt that it wasn't seated properly, the part that he put in, so that the fan was hitting something. That's why it was making a loud noise. He didn't want to hear it, but yet he was like, “That's weird.”
He took it out, put it back in. Now, there's no noise anymore. I said, "Okay, what about the cooling? I have a problem now with my refrigerator.” He said, "You just need to give it time to work.” I said, " Okay." I've been giving it time, checking on it, and the ice maker stopped making ice. It was set at zero. I had to move it down to -3. Then I had to lower my refrigerator to 34.
When Allstate called me to ask how the repair was, I was like, ”No, it's really noisy, and now it's not cooling.” They said, “We have to take care of the noise first.” I said, “Okay. Just so you know, I want it documented that neither is cooling properly.” And she said, “Okay.” But then she must have done another order, ‘cause she sent two new parts. And the guy's supposed to come today from a different repair company called Home Solutions. I'm not there, but I made arrangements for my son to be there. I got a text from the repair company this morning saying that they canceled. I called AllState. But they said, "No, it wasn't canceled.” Then he called the Home Solutions repair place just to verify, and the customer service has been wonderful.
They definitely are trying to help me. So, he asked me to hold. He called them. They said it's still on their list to come today and repair my refrigerator. But I have a feeling it's going to be a no-show today. But hopefully, that won't be the case. So, so far, I'm not thrilled. My refrigerator doesn't work. Thank God, we have a refrigerator in the garage, and I put everything that I could in our garage fridge. But everyone at AllState has been very friendly and helpful. And they don't just blow me off. Their customer service is exceptional. The follow-through with the warranty repairs is mediocre. Hopefully, they're really coming today.

I would attach and upload a receipt except for fact that Home Depot purges all order history after 25 months (Not helpful, Home Depot). The claims process was pretty fast and it was fairly easy to find my coverage once I remembered who I purchased coverage from. The most difficult part was that I had pack this large appliance up and ship it in order to have it evaluated. Once they received it within minutes they knew it was unrepairable even though I had given a good description of what was going on. Packaging up 25 inch by 18 inch 20 appliance is a little challenging to get done in a way that it arrives unharmed and took some time and effort that I feel was unnecessary. Getting the claim paid promptly was straightforward after that.

I got the Allstate protection plan for the iRobot vacuum and when it was going around in circles and not doing anything, I made a claim. After I mailed it off, I ended up in the hospital for two months and when I got home, I opened the box and what I got was not what I sent. I would never send something in for repair with a dirty filter in it and I have no pets. On top of that, it was so scratched up. Somebody else had the same one and they sent mine to them. So, I was not happy at all. Allstate should have paid attention to what vac I sent back instead of giving me somebody else's nasty stuff.
Allstate said they were going to reimburse me, and they did. But not for the full amount because I had it for a little over a year and a half. So they reimbursed me $278.99, which was fine. It sure beats what I got back. They told me that I could either throw it away, keep it, or do whatever I wanted. So, I kept it. It was easy communicating with Allstate. I had a hard time understanding the rep on the phone at times, but she was very accommodating and her customer service was fantastic. And I was very pleased with the outcome.

I purchased an Allstate protection plan from Mint Mobile. I saw the payment came out, then they returned it. It came back out and they returned it again, then they pulled it back out. I don't know what's going on, but I let it go. If I have a protection plan, I got one paid because my money is not back in my account. This is the second time I purchased a protection plan and when I filed a claim, it said I needed to fill out some questions. I ended up doing that, but I didn't use the protection plan. When I gave the guy the info, he said, "Oh, no. This is not it. It should be a questionnaire.” The questionnaire was about my phone, then three days later, someone from Allstate said, "I need pictures of the phone. Is the phone broke? Is the phone not broke?”
I didn't get asked all the questions with the first protection plan. “We need a picture of your phone. We need to see what the phone looked like.” The problem was within the phone, not the outside of it. It was no problem sending the pictures, but I thought it was too much. I ended up paying out of pocket to get my phone taken care of.

With any electronic product, if something goes wrong, one would want to plan to back it up, and getting a protection plan wasn't too costly. My Beats head piece that goes over the head cracked and it was easy to file a claim online with Allstate. The website was easy. For the initial feedback and what they were going to do, that part was easy. They were quick to respond. However, I tried to get my headphones replaced, and they sent me Sanyo and all these unnamed brand headphones as a replacement, saying they were equal. I wasn't happy with what they wanted to give. I sent the letter back saying they were not equal or the same thing.
I understand that I got the headphones for a cheaper price, but I would rather have my money back to put on what I want instead of getting these inferior products. We communicated well back and forth through email and they told me they approved it, but I'm still waiting for my check. They said they would mail it. Allstate's protection plan is a great product, but based on the situation that I'm dealing with with them, they didn't guarantee the product that I purchased and their follow-up when I was not happy with their suggested replacement was not fast.

I bought it because I was going to print a big sculptor part by part. I tested about two rolls of little things and everything was working fantastically. Then suddenly, it started not working very well. I went online and I started checking what to do. I purchased a new motor for the stepper. I also got a new stepper and a new heating.

Generally, when I purchase something, especially online or even sometimes in the store, they ask if I want to extend the warranty and I generally do, depending on the price of the product, if it's a more expensive product, like a PlayStation or a television. I've been buying stuff for years, and I'm sure I've had to deal with Allstate before, but the newest one was with the PlayStation. I paid 36 bucks to cover it.
I filed a claim through Allstate and the only problem I had was I was out of town working. I ended up being on the phone with a gentleman, and he walked through the process. I said, “okay. Well, let's get it going.” the gentleman advised we were all good to go, but he needed photos, which prohibited me from proceeding. It was no big deal though. I asked my wife to take some pictures and send them to me. When I went to the link the gentleman sent, it was forcing me to use that link to use my camera to take the pictures. So, I sent a link to my wife. When I got back to the house on a Friday, I redid it, but it seemed to have worked prior. I sent the unit in and it got repaired. They sent it back in about 10 days.
On most insurance plans I've had, whether it’d be through my phones with Asurion, through Verizon, or through Allstate, I haven't had any issues getting help. Before I purchase a plan, I find out what's covered and no matter what it is, Allstate covers it. So, I would definitely suggest it to my friend. Almost anything that happens to a device, they take care of it. All in all, I'm very happy with Allstate, because it's like I'm purchasing an extended three-year warranty for 36 bucks for almost anything that I can do to it. Unfortunately, my son didn't do anything to the unit. It just stopped working. Having Allstate is beneficial and I've had a great experience with it.

It's very easy to obtain an Allstate warranty and it's more difficult to buy the product. On the website, they have Allstate under the product, you just click what year you want. Usually, I go for the maximum amount of time because there's usually only a couple of more dollars than the minimum. Also, the Allstate website is straightforward. Once you put your email in, it'll pretty much show everything from your email that's covered. But it's really hard to retrieve the coverage and benefit from it.
I made a claim when the oven stopped turning on or giving me any signal, anything that has to do with being able to have power. When I plugged it up, it'd just stay dead. Initially, I wasn't certain of which one was which. But Allstate was able to see that the first one was cancelled. So, I immediately started a new claim on the other one. Because of what happened with the first one, they wanted additional information, which I provided. But I couldn't locate the store receipt.
I got the oven off Walmart.com and I didn't go into a store. And when I called Walmart, they said that they could see on the Allstate site that my plan was still active, and I purchased it with the oven, but that they were not allowed to send me any receipts. They gave me that order number and instructed me that they saw on the Allstate site that my plan was still active, and that with the order number that they should be able to help me. But that wasn't the case when I called Allstate. They told me that they wanted me to write a statement of the order number, the date I purchased it, and take pictures of all sites with the day's date. So that was what I did. I also talked to a couple of agents and they weren't trying to work with me, so I just left it alone. They said that if I don't have a physical receipt, my claim will not be approved.
With everything I buy, especially from Walmart.com, I usually get a protection plan, and I have not been able to successfully file a claim on any item. It's usually hard for their agents to understand and properly communicate. I would articulate one thing, and when they read back their notes before they close the call, there would always be inconsistencies to where I have to tell my side about four to five times.
I also have one pending claim with a refrigerator, but again, due to me buying these things online, I don't have a physical receipt. I also went through this with me buying a couple of futons two years ago. Even the mini fridge, Swiffer, when something went wrong and I reached out to Allstate, I never got a claim completed. I also requested if I could get my warranty refunded on my active warranties, and I haven't heard anything back. So, I just left it alone. But moving forward, I will never buy a warranty from Allstate.

Before buying an extended warranty, consumers should ask one question: what happens when the failure is real—but intermittent? We purchased an Allstate Protection Plan for our refrigerator expecting protection and peace of mind. Instead, we experienced a recurring issue: a loud alarm sounding without warning and intermittent freezing in the upper compartment. A technician was dispatched, but because the issue did not occur during the visit, the claim was denied.
The result is a gap in coverage that is not clearly communicated at the point of sale: intermittent failures may effectively be unresolvable under the current service model. We are now left to document random malfunctions while living with an unreliable appliance. Consumers do not purchase protection plans to prove a problem exists—they purchase them to have it resolved. If coverage depends on replication during a single service visit, that limitation should be explicit before purchase.
Hello Maria Ciazza,
We’re sorry to hear about your recent experience with your claim.
SquareTrade strives to assist all of our customers by providing efficient and effective resolutions. However, according to the terms and conditions of our protection plan, coverage does not extend to items that are found to be fully functional at the time of a technician’s visit. While we make every effort to support our customers, we are only able to process claims that fall within the scope of the coverage purchased.
At this moment, one of our specialists has contacted you to discuss this matter and offer further support.

Allstate is worth the value of getting the purchase and the quickness and ease of getting online and filing a claim. I submitted two claims online. The Beats headphones, the little clip broke. The other was the mic broke. I sent in pictures. I haven't accepted the last two. Allstate said they will send a gift card, which is fine because I can go to Walmart. But the other, they wanted to replace the Beats with another set of earphones, and I gotta call them. That's not acceptable. They can just give me the amount that they will pay. My son wants Beats back again, and I'll add more money to get the Beats.
I don't like the options, if they're not going to replace it with the same brand. Beats for my son is very popular, and I bought Beats. For Allstate to say they can't fix it, and send me a comparable, for a 14-year-old, that's not going to work. I'm gonna go back there and ask them, “Just send me the gift card for the amount that you will pay for. And then I'll add funds to get him another set of Beats."
This is the first time when they sent that thing about the Beats that they offered something that wasn't exactly the Beats. But as a consumer, I have to do a better job. I purchased a cord yesterday. When I first purchase it, it doesn't zone in on the item. I don't think about it now, because I don't have an issue. But when I go back to do an issue, I have to search for the receipt. Luckily, everywhere I purchase items like Target, Sam's, wherever, I have an account with them, so I can easily go back and match up the date. Allstate will have the date, but if it says electronic item, it doesn't tell you specifically what the item is. So, I have to do some of that crosswalk, but it doesn't impact me like that. What I'm gonna do with the item that I purchased yesterday is log into my account, and indicate what it is and upload the receipt. I have to do all that when I'm already stressed out because I realize that it's defective or broken.

The sound on the TV stopped working. Filing a claim with Allstate was fairly simple. I did it online. We did a phone consultation as well. They had us try a bunch of settings, but it didn't fix it. So, they sent someone out. They had to send the replacement parts, and then the gentleman came out and put the part in. It was an easy process, and I'm glad we had the solution we were looking for. Having the extended warranty is valuable. The regular TV warranty didn't cover long enough. Overall, we were pleased with how our experience turned out. Our coverage was originally three years, but then they did added two more years on. I don't know why there was a change, but I'm glad they did that.

Original Review: May 29, 2026
I contacted Allstate Warranty regarding my son’s bicycle, which has significant damage including a broken frame and multiple damaged components. Based on the condition of the bicycle, it is clearly a total loss and not reasonably repairable. Despite already providing pictures showing the extent of the damage, I was instructed to take time out of my workday to bring the bicycle to a local repair shop for a written estimate. I was told that only after a third party confirmed that the repair cost exceeded the value of the bicycle would a replacement or resolution be considered.
This process is extremely inconvenient and unnecessary. The damage is obvious from the photos provided, and requiring a customer to spend additional time and effort obtaining documentation for something that is already clearly visible feels like an unnecessary burden. I believe there should be a more efficient process in place where representatives are empowered to make reasonable decisions based on clear photographic evidence, especially in situations involving obvious total losses. Customers should not have to lose work time or go through extra steps simply to confirm damage that is already apparent. I would appreciate a faster and more customer-friendly resolution process moving forward.

The sales lady explained that a protection plan would be a good option for my refrigerator. The one we got before didn’t last five years, so I thought of getting one. The store where we bought the refrigerator put the Allstate protection plan on the deal. We did one year with no interest. I filed a claim to get reimbursed for half of the filter and it was super easy. I did it on my phone and took a picture. I like that Allstate pays back half of the preventive maintenance. So, when I buy the filters, which are very expensive at about $50, they send me a check right back for $25.

I bought five identical chairs. The first chair that I put in a claim for lost the hardware in one of the lower rungs. It fell out, and there was a crack in the wood. So, Allstate replaced that chair. One by one, I'm using them. They're lined up in my kitchen at the counter, so there's not a lot of activity. I’m retired and we don't have a lot of traffic flow in the house. I use this one on the end. When that one fell apart, I moved the next one down and I used that. The same thing happened. The wood didn't crack but the hardware fell out. My husband put it back in, and it fell out again. I put in a claim for the second one. I moved that chair out, moved the third one down. I couldn't believe it but after a little while, not too long of using that third one, the same hardware component fell out.
I wish I could have just returned all of chairs. I spent over $1,000 on them. Allstate replaced two of them, and I have a claim in the third. They've been wonderful to deal with. However, when I bought the chairs and the protection, I thought I would get five years protection if something happens with normal wear and tear. But when the chair falls apart or has this defect, Allstate will replace it, but I can't buy any further protection.
I wish I could also buy some additional coverage for the next four years. But Allstate's policy is I can't. I'm gonna use them. I have no choice. But I'm afraid that the hardware is gonna drop out again. I don't want anyone to get hurt. I've been in this place for a year. I have these stools. Even though they're replaced, I have no recourse if something happens. I'm a little frustrated with that. But the customer service, the amount of time I wait to hear back from them, has been wonderful. I felt secure in knowing that a piece of furniture that I expected to have a bit of use would be covered if something were to happen. I didn't expect anything to happen. It's a little frustrating to have the same thing happen to three chairs. It is a manufacturer issue.

We filed four claims for the washer and dryer. The contractor kept throwing parts at the washer and they just kept coming. Finally, I called Famous Tate and said, "Is there something we can do?" The rep said, "Man, I'm surprised. Allstate is really good. Normally, if they send a technician out there two or three times and they can't fix it, they usually just give you back your money and tell you to go buy a new washer." He told me that he would reach out to Allstate and move it up the ladder for me. They did that and we were very pleased that Allstate said, "Yes, absolutely. We will take this and you can go buy a new washer." They were spending more money having a technician come out and throwing parts at this thing than they were just to give us back our money.
The two technicians who came out didn't speak very good English. So it was hard to ask questions of what was going on, what they thought, and should we do anything different. The first technician was very kind of condescending and very cocky. I wasn't there when he came out. My mom and my wife were there. The next time we had to have someone come out again, he showed up again and he was very pleasant with me. Then the next guy that came out was a different guy and he came out two times, but he didn't speak very good English.
It was pretty easy to work with Allstate but I wished they had reviewed the claims that were coming in and seen that the claim had already been sent in four times. Also, these weren't cheap parts. Literally, they replaced everything in the washer except for the drum and the outside shell. So by the time you pay for that technician's payroll, plus the parts that are $200, $300, $400 and $600, you could have bought me two washers.

While hoping that it was still covered, I was grateful that it still had to the end of the year of warranty. Just a few quick questions and I set up for an in-house repair, which I appreciated as I didn't want to haul my TV to a repair facility. A very satisfying experience and will not hesitate to proceed with future warranty claims. Thank You.

I sent in a claim to Allstate and it was the easiest process. I've already recommended Allstate after I saw how easy their process with mine. Now we know the insurance definitely works. When I called to make the claim, I had questions because that was my first time using it and I didn't know Allstate had on service people that they go to, that they have to select the ones that they use. I already asked them could I use this one particular guy that I knew fixed phones that somebody had just recommended me to him from my doctor's office. I didn't know him personally, but somebody had told me how good they did with their phone. Their phone was having the same problem my phone was having. So, I filed everything.
When I got the information, it told me where I could take my phone, which I don't care because it was right here by my house. Allstate did give me a choice to choose, but he wasn't on there. The customer representative needs a little more training so that they'll know what to answer because the question wasn't answered to me correctly. What they should have said was, "We already have authorized people that we work with and you get the chance to choose one of them." But they told me I could use this person and they were not an authorized user.

I am extremely dissatisfied with how this claim has been handled. Denying coverage based on alleged “commercial use” feels misleading and unreasonable, especially since this limitation was never clearly explained when the policy was sold. If Allstate intends to deny claims under broad interpretations of “commercial use,” that information should be made unmistakably clear to customers upfront. Using a coffee maker for myself at work constitutes a commercial entity?!? HOW? DO NOT BUY ALLSTATE INSURANCE FROM ITEMS PURCHASED AT WALMART.

Some products require a specific commercial coverage plan offered by selected SquareTrade plan partners. In this case, you purchased a product intended for commercial use. However, the plan purchased did not include coverage for this type of product, which prevented SquareTrade from providing assistance.

The pool pump suddenly stopped working. It was working one day, and the next day, it just stopped working. I submitted a claim with Allstate. There was a number that I had on the original receipt, and that was the number I called up. They said, " Yes, your thing is covered." They asked me for the receipt number, gave them the receipt number. They said it was still under coverage.
Because I was driving, I didn't have access to the emails immediately. But they had asked me for a receipt number and my address. They verified that this was an item that was still under coverage, because it is one and a half years since I purchased it. Then they sent me a check.

We just had our stove claim done. The repairman came to fix it and he made it worse. And then, it got to the point where we couldn't open up the door. So, Allstate had to replace the whole thing and I got a brand-new stove. The claim process was very long. We had to send videos and pictures, and they didn't like the pictures we were sending. So, we had to send more pictures. It was a big fiasco. I was without a stove for six weeks.
Having the extended coverage is sometimes worth it and sometimes it's not. We did it for my refrigerator and we figured we'd do it for the stove. I bought a Whirlpool refrigerator and I had nothing but problems with it, and that refrigerator is gone. So when we bought the appliances, we figured we'd take out the extra insurance, which is a good thing that we did because it cost us an extra $300, but we made the deadline with it. The stove was only a year and a half old.

Hello Jaime Castro,

SquareTrade always strives to offer repair and replacement solutions as our top priority, and a reimbursement is provided when the initial options are unavailable. We have designed SquareTrade protection plans to cover our customers up to the amount spent on the item. The availability of these solutions depends on several factors, such as the cost of repair, the purchase price of the device, whether we can source a comparable replacement item within the coverage limits of the plan, and so on.

My treadmill was not working. The belt was not moving. That was when I started working with this claim. I thought that when I purchased the plan, NFM is going to send their own technician, but they directed me to SquareTrade, who directed me to Allstate. It was a big hassle what I had to go through. When I opened the claim, Allstate recommended some technician. When I went with the technician, they gave me a quote, and it was ridiculous. It is almost 200 bucks per hour.
I raised that concern with Allstate, asking them what if these days, I just spend money on troubleshooting and let the parts be additional. They said it will only be available for 1,000 bucks. That is the max they can cover. If they spend three hours and they couldn't find anything, in the sense that they couldn't fix it because they don't have the expertise, like what the actual company comes with. They said, still go ahead. So, I went with these technicians, and they came. In one hour, they said the problem is with something. Luckily, the parts were covered by the manufacturer.
I ordered the parts from manufacturer warranty. The second time the technician came to fix it, some guy who spent almost three hours, which is ridiculous. He had no clue on what to fix. And he broke my console. He had the audacity to say that, “Your console is always a problem.” These guys are a big cheaters. And if what Allstate is recommending are these guys, block them. They are fitness machine technicians. They sent one bad technician, he spent three hours, he messed up my console, and they charged 400 bucks. Overall, I spent 680. I produced the bills to Allstate as well. And I fought for Allstate because I know money is coming from either you are from me. I have a lot of emails going with those fitness machine technicians asking them, “This is something that you broke and you shouldn't have sent someone who don't have expertise. And they spent three hours. I'm not going to pay for their training.”
But they denied all those things, and because they already charged it. I told Allstate that, “I already informed you in the first mail itself that what if they spent the time and doesn't fix the equipment?” They said, still, go ahead. I have that equipment lying there. It is not working. Finally, Allstate gave me credit for that one, Allstate. Maybe Allstate doesn't have any idea as well on how these fitness machine techniciansdays rob the customers. I would ask Allstate to not recommend those guys to any of their future customers, because customers will end up paying lot of money. Other than that, it's great. It was seamless.

I don't know how this company has a rating of 4 Stars at the time of writing this review. I sent an ASUS Gaming Laptop for repair to their equally unscrupulous repair shop, Tech Force, Puerto Rico, and after more than a month of waiting, I get the laptop back without the charger! Then as I continued to investigate I find that the motherboard has been downgraded!
My laptop just shut down and wouldn't turn on, a walk in the park for a real repair specialist, the laptop was only 14-months old, brand new! For what I paid for the insurance I could have included another $50 to $100 and sent the laptop to a real repair specialist. Not a parts replacement shop! After all the back and forth they offered me $100, because according to their logic the laptop works and the charger, that I finally was able to get back, charged it. I don't use the laptop, I am that disgusted.
They totally ignored the fact that they downgraded my laptop! I spent time with ASUS, which are no piece of cake either, to get the part number for the motherboard and an actual link on their store. The motherboard costs $1,071 dollars. And here is the reason my laptop was downgraded, because the motherboard has been temporarily out of stock for months, it could take months to restock. So they had a motherboard with lower CPU and GPU on hand and just used that to "repair" my laptop! That was Tech Force, Puerto Rico. A real repair shop would have repaired the motherboard. Check your devices, I know there are a lot of non-technical people that send their devices to be "repaired", and chances are that your devices could have been downgraded, and most of you not realizing this have given glowing reviews!

Allstate Protection Plans very good, trustworthy, and polite. They have been with me right up front, every step of the way. It was an excellent experience. At the time, there was no one available to send when I had a problem with it. But that's because there wasn't anybody available. When I told them after a few weeks that that they should reimburse me for what I paid for it, they did that. They were very good about that. My washer would continue to drip water inside the tub even though it was shut off. They were very good about taking care of the issue right away. They were also very good about answering my questions and helping me. They didn't have anybody available at the time. They stayed in touch with me. And when I got ahold of them, they were very good, because I said I need my washer. My grandchildren live here, and I have three little kids. I have a house full. Since they didn't have anyone available, they reimbursed me.
Within the week, I already had a check in the mail. I spent more than what they sent me, but that's because I also had my washer removed, the one that didn't work. I added to it what I needed to add to it, like an extra 25 to remove the old one. But I turned around and I used the money to get a new one, and I had one delivered right away. The warranty is worth it for a washer or some big appliance like that. Have it.
I couldn't afford to go out and buy another brand new one. It wasn't a cheap machine. I paid under $1,000. This was a good machine, well made. I had one like it in the past. I had it a long time. I bought another one, the same exact brand, and it was less than a year old. It wasn't very old when I started having problems. I don't know if the seal broke or what happened inside the tub. And I can't have anybody work on it. When it's under warranty, you have to get ahold of them so they send their own people. They told me that I could find someone else to try to fix it, and they would reimburse that way. But I couldn't do that because I couldn't find anybody. I would have to put the money up front, and they would reimburse me. But I didn't have money to do that, and I told them that. They didn't argue the fact. They just went along with what I needed, and it worked out perfectly. I was without my washer for three weeks.
