I bought a washer through Home Depot and I purchased an Allstate insurance for it. We filed a claim a few months ago. With Allstate, everything was great. It's just the company that they used to come wasn't that good. With the guys that came over, everything ran smoothly, but to do the appointment, it was a hassle. At first, when I spoke with someone from Allstate, they said that they were gonna come. They gave me a time and I said it was fine. I work in the morning, so I said it was fine, but I had to ask for the day off because of that. After asking for the day off, I received a message from the company that was coming over and they said they were gonna show up at 4:00. I told them that they said that they would be here at 8:00. I already asked for the day off. If I would have known, I wouldn't have lost money.
The company said they couldn't come because they were coming from LA. I couldn't argue with it. They were gonna come on a Tuesday, and on Wednesday and Thursday, I work all day and all night, so I said, “Can you come on a Friday?” They said, “No, you can't do that. You have to call the day before to do an appointment.” So on Thursday, I called and told them I needed an appointment. All of a sudden, they were like, “We're gonna come in the morning.” I said, “But I thought you guys said he couldn't come in the morning because he's coming from LA.” “Oh, yeah, but he has an appointment over there in the morning so he can't.” I was like, “He had an appointment with me. How come they couldn't come in the morning?” I said, “Okay. That's fine.” I needed my laundry machine fixed, so what could I do?
Other than that, everything was great with the customer service at Allstate. It was just the customer service from the company that came was a big hassle. If I would have had another option, I would have, but that was the option I was offered. Everything else was great. Allstate told me they were gonna send me the item that the laundry needed when they took the assessment. They did send me everything needed, so when the two guys showed up, they didn't need anything. Everything was here on time. They used the part that Allstate did send. During all of that was hassle-free. Allstate is a good company because I've already had them for my cars for years, so I knew right away, when it comes to Allstate, I would definitely recommend it.

I received the credit when I returned the laptop. It wasn't immediately, but they credited me even before the store did. I have had Allstate for other items, and most of the time it's OK. I only had trouble once for something else.

I got an Allstate protection plan for a freeze dryer. The dryer was a gift to me, and when the person who bought it funds transferred the receipt from Harvest right to me, it was an ungodly ridiculously difficult task. However, transferring the warranty over to me was beyond easy and appreciated that. Allstate was really easy to work with. The dryer started acting up. It was flooding with water, and that's not what it should be doing as a freeze dryer. I just started that process of the claim. It hasn't been resolved. We don't know what's wrong with it yet. Allstate is really easy to use as far as when I called them, they asked what was going on, and I told them, and they said, “Okay. Well, because of this situation, you can use whoever you want. You'll have to pay out-of-pocket for repairs. The only thing we have to verify with you is if the company says it needs to be replaced, then you'll have to get approval. But beyond that, everything else will be covered. Just send us the receipt.” I found it very easy and appreciated that.

The center diamond on my wife’s 2.95-carat diamond ring fell out while we were traveling back from Florida or Georgia. She came out of the bathroom and noticed it was gone. We looked but couldn’t find it. I told her not to worry because I bought a 10-year warranty from Allstate. We filed the claim, and they asked for the ring in, and we sent it. I sent them the receipt from Sam's Club, the item number for the ring, and the item number for the policy. They asked for a little card, but Sam’s said they don’t provide those anymore. The rep told me to send a picture, so I sent one my wife had, and they told me they would get back to me on the 5th. That was just a day or two away and I wondered how they would respond that quickly. He explained that it would go to their adjusters, and they would let me know what they could do. By Wednesday, I hadn’t received an update, so I called. Then I got an email saying the claim was denied.
Allstate said their policy excludes anything above 2.25 or 2.5 carats. My wife’s ring is 3 carats. I asked how they could deny it when I bought a warranty for that specific ring. I spoke to a supervisor, and she told me they only cover up to 2.25 carats according to the policy they sent. I told her that was very misleading. The policy includes furniture, tires, and all kinds of things jumbled together. It’s broken into sections, but it’s not clear. I told her it felt deceptive to sell a policy that makes people think their ring is covered bumper-to-bumper when it’s not and that I looked them up on the Better Business website and saw they had a high denial rate. The only thing they offered was to refund the $200 I paid for the 10-year warranty. I would not recommend buying anything covered by Allstate or SquareTrade. They do not hold up to their end of the bargain.
Hello Kim Murphy,
We apologize for any inconvenience or frustration faced during your recent claim
SquareTrade does its best to provide quick and hassle-free service to all customers. We also strive to ensure our specialists deliver accurate and friendly service. According to our terms and conditions, lost, stolen, or irretrievable items are not covered. However, for jewelry plans, we have specific clauses that allow coverage for the loss of gemstones up to 0.25 carats, as this is typically caused by defective settings, which would be considered a mechanical issue.
We understand the frustration that can arise from this. However, we were pleased to speak with you and provide additional support regarding your claim. We hope to provide a better experience in the future.
Thank you,AB

I have a bad history of buying electronic devices and them not working, and Allstate was offered to me when I made the purchase on Walmart.com and it was affordable. I’d better have it than not because with my history, I will need it and not have it. I bought a robot vacuum and all I did was order the item and put it in my cart. Before it was added to the cart, a little pop-up came up asking if I wanted to purchase the warranty, showing the 12-month and 24-month options with the prices. I clicked what I wanted and moved on. It didn’t pressure me or try to convince me to buy anything. It gave me the freedom to choose, and the options were clearly explained, including the length and what it covers. There was also a hyperlink I could click to see the coverage. It was very convenient.
The spinning brush on the device stopped working after a couple of months. It was still covered under a manufacturer's warranty. However, the brand that I purchased didn't come with any manufacturer contact information. So, I was able to use the Alexa app for the website. I went to the website, and did a robot chat and I was told that they didn't offer stuff like that. I said it’s on the box. So, I had to reach out to Allstate through the Walmart app because that's where the policy is. I was asked simple questions like when I purchased it and what item it was. The rep looked it up in my previous transactions and pulled it up and confirmed the device. Then, I was asked about the manufacturer's warranty and was advised. I simply explained what happened and put me on hold while they worked it out.
The next thing I knew, Allstate was offering me a backup alternative that had three choices and I made my selection. It came from Amazon.com and was delivered the next morning. It happened very quickly. Allstate resolved my issue immediately. It was perfect. There wasn't any delays in my claim to be accepted or approved or fulfilled, as well as in the delivery of a replacement item. They didn't require me to package up an old item and send it in, probably because it was broken. They were very helpful and supportive. Everything worked out very well and I was very pleased.
The replacement device is a different brand. So, they didn't send me the same thing. Some places replace it with a refurbished item. With Allstate, everything was brand new, a newer model, and a more upgraded operating system. So, I was very happy about that. Allstate is quick and responsive. Overall, I'm satisfied. They have an easy process to navigate on the customer side of things.

Allstate's price is perfect and it's why I purchased the plan. I have several plans with them, and I've been telling people to purchase one. When my heating blanket completely quit working on one side, I submitted a claim online. I went to Walmart's website to get the process started, then I followed the directions. It was super easy. I'm computer savvy, but still, it was self-explanatory. Walmart showed every one my of plans all together and I never had to speak with anybody. Allstate took care of the claim instantly and they told me to destroy the old heating blanket because I couldn't use it. They gave me back a lot of money on a Walmart card right then and I turned around and ordered me a blanket.

I purchased an Allstate protection plan at Home Depot at the same time that I purchased a dryer and washer. When I submitted a claim for the dryer, everything went very well according to plan. Customer service was awesome. They gave me no problem with coming up with the policy that I purchased. I thought it was gonna be hard, like these other policies wherein you buy them and they don't comply with your needs and time. I was surprised that Allstate took care of all my needs free of charge with the policy, and I was so happy with it. I was glad I got that plan. I was at work when the technician came, but from my wife's feedback, the technician was very polite, efficient, and professional about everything. Overall, Allstate is worth it.

Having an extended warranty is very valuable to me because most time with manufacturer warranties where it's a year or 30 days or higher than 90 days, the items that I purchased and the things that I use them for, I would use them once or twice within that range, and right after I would need them again, they break, so it's good to have that extra security to where how many years it is that I asked for it, it keeps me protected. Allstate Protection Plans is a must if you purchase things that you expect to have for more than 30 days. I purchase it through Amazon most of the time.
The recent one that I did a claim on was my log splitter. It stopped working. I split some logs one day, and I came back three weeks later to start splitting some more logs but it wouldn't work. The rep who helped me out on my claim was very helpful. You have some people in insurance claims that it's all about, “You lost it. Don't worry about it." The experience was great. I enjoyed it. The process wasn't difficult, but what needed to be done was put more work into it due to it being an electric log splitter. I had to go out and find someone to repair the log splitter rather than just tell them that the log splitter is not working and going from there. But once I called the tech and told him about the situation, he quickly went in and tried to fix the situation.

Our dryer quit working. I got online and I put in a claim with Allstate. It's been pretty rough going. This has been going on for four months now. My dryer is still not fixed. Whenever I schedule for the technician to come out and look for it, he's done five no-call, no-shows. Then, he finally showed up an hour late after another one and they sent the wrong parts to my house. So it's still not fixed. It's been pretty frustrating. I got the purchase plan because it's a big purchase. If something goes wrong with it, I probably won't be able to afford to get it fixed. The plan is a little pricey. But it's important.

I had purchased a heater in the past and it failed, and it was three weeks past the warranty period. Home Depot wasn’t able to replace it for me. And that was the second time I bought one, and they tend to have the same failure, so I decided to make the investment to make sure I could replace it. I placed a claim online for the heater and it was great. I'm glad I put it on there. So, Allstate needs to keep up the good work. I used to be a store manager for RadioShack back in the day and sold a lot of extended warranties, and helped customers with a lot of their claims. And Allstate was very easy to do. It makes me happy because I have several extended warranties through Allstate with Walmart as well, on some of the TVs I own. So, it's encouraging to know that they make the process that easy.
Having an extended warranty is worth it. Nobody plans on an accident and when something goes wrong, it's always at the worst time. I see these extended warranties as peace of mind for the future. Allstate told me I didn't have to send anything back to the store, and that was a no-brainer. For the average consumer, they're offering extended warranties on virtually everything. It's silly sometimes what you see with the extended warranty. Overall, it was a great experience.

We had two claims with the refrigerator, and the first one wasn't the best experience. The amount of effort that I had to put in on it was just incredible. And then the call center that they route you through, it was just really, really hard to understand the people that I was speaking with. I don't think that English is their first language, and it just was really difficult. But the second claim was pretty good. The person that I spoke to for the second claim was very helpful, and that one went rather well. But the first one was just like pulling teeth. You have to document this, so you document it and send it back. And then they'd come up with something else. It was like they wanted you to go away almost.
Both claims did get done. So the warranty was worth what I paid for it. But Allstate could make it easier to file a claim. Now the second one was easier, but I just sort of bypassed the whole process and got around it. Then the other thing that it depends on who you get. Some people are very good at what they do. The second person I got was very good at what she did. The first one I got, not so much. So that makes a big difference in how your claim gets handled too.

The frame and one of the legs of the sofa broke. The claims process was kinda quick but I felt uncomfortable because they couldn't find the exact match. It took me so long to get that color and that size, but they couldn't find it because they didn't have the same color at the site. So, it was a lot of back and forth. In the end, I got another sofa in the same price range. So, it was okay, but not great.
Getting a protection plan is tricky because you pay in advance for something that could break or not. But at the end of the day, the results are not the ones that you're expecting. It was easier to get a gift card from Wayfair and I could choose something in the same color or more according to what the item was broken. But since the beginning, Allstate said, “No, no, no.” They didn't give me any chance to try to get an item that looks better. At the end, if I wanted one that was nicer or the same as I had before, I bought it a year ago, so the prices are going to rise. So, I got some cheap sofa instead.

But they got the watch on sale so they said it was only a $2 difference. With the new protection plan, it was a $23 difference. So I didn't get reimbursed because it was on sale.

I called up a few repair guys that the store had mentioned, and they said, "Sorry, we do not do work on stuff that's still under warranty."

I bought this protection plan when we bought a a high-end Electrolux washer and dryer from Famous Tate in Oldsmar, Florida.
Because I've had issues with these washers and dryers before I know many of the local appliance repairs in the area. I know who to ask for and who not to. Allstate never gave me a choice. In fact, I had to use two different companies for the washer and the dryer, even though I called at the same time for both.
For the dryer, they referred me to specialty Appliance Repair in Clearwater Florida. 90% of the time when I called I couldn't get through and I kept getting a recording saying we're very busy and please call back. This was constant. When they ordered parts from Allstate, I had to call to get tracking numbers. The technician that came out came off as arrogant and he wouldn't put all the parts on the dryer claiming that well if I deem it's not necessary I would get in trouble if I put the parts on. A drum belt seriously?? By the way, the dryer still is not working correctly.
Are the washer they referred me to Atria appliance care based in Orlando, Florida. They seemed a little better but again I had to call On obtaining tracking numbers for parts. They were never sent unless I asked. The technician I had were not clean off rust around the front loader washer door before putting in a screw. Seriously? I actually had to put the screw back in after cleaning up myself and looping it up a bit. Boy, a real hard thing to do.
Overall, all states Customer Service reps speak from a canned script because they're overseas. They don't have very good customer service, acumen, and constantly speak over you and ignore what you're trying to tell them. In short, when I buy appliances again, which I'm sure I'll have to because they're made so poorly. I will never use Allstate protection plan again and we'll go out of my way to avoid them.

We redid our kitchen a number of years ago and purchased the appliances from Home Depot along with the extended warranty from Allstate. When I had to file my first claim, I did it over the phone and it worked out to be fairly straightforward and simple. They had tried defrosting the whole refrigerator so I had to take everything out, store it in an ice chest and do a 24-hour defrost. That didn't work so I had to put everything back in. Then the guy came out and did some troubleshooting. I had to empty the refrigerator portion, not the freezer, and they fixed it. At first, I was a little hesitant because I had to put all the money out of pocket upfront. But Allstate sent me a check within four or five days of the repair being finished. I was very pleased with that.

Somebody bought out Briggs & Stratton stock, and it's all trash. I have an 82-volt battery charger for a Briggs & Stratton blower. I got two batteries and neither one of them will work. I plugged them out and they arched out at the plug real bad. When I bought the chargers and batteries, I thought of adding Allstate's protection plan. It was not that much more expensive, but it's been a disaster. A two-year warranty doesn't mean anything. It's guaranteed a two-year warranty from the company, but Allstate won't back anything up that is not working when it comes in. They have done nothing. They won't even answer my email. I've had Allstate in different situations and it's always been good until this battery deal.

I bought a washer a couple of years ago and when it went out, we didn't have a protection plan. We use the washer often, so I got one. It's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. The washer stopped washing and was just filling up with water and not draining. I called Nebraska Furniture Mart and they referred me to Allstate. I went online and the process was simple. I was asked for information but I didn’t have to do much because it was followed up with a phone call from the techs who were coming out.
The communication was nice, especially before the techs arrived. They called and left a voicemail to let me know what time they were coming out. They kept me in the loop about what we were waiting on, followed up consistently, and were prompt with the times they said they would arrive. It was frustrating, though, that when I originally reported the issue, Allstate sent out parts before the tech arrived, just based on what I was telling them was the issue. I ended up going almost three weeks without a washer because I waited a week and when the tech came out, every part that Allstate sent was not any of the parts that would fix the issue. So he had to order the parts, and we had to wait for that. Overall, I love the protection plan and I’m satisfied with how the washer was fixed, although the timeframe was entirely too long. When you're three weeks without a washer and you are a family of five, it's challenging.

I had a wonderful experience with Allstate Protection Plans. It's very easy to make a claim with them. By the time I was on the phone, someone would answer, or I would go to an online agent by text messages and they would answer all the questions. They respond with my claim right away. Several months passed and the vacuum didn't want to suck well. I tried to check on it and there was no plastic, no piece of bags, nothing. Maybe it was something there in the stick with the electrics. By the time I made a claim, it was direct. Allstate sent me the check on time. Excellent service. Also, the warranty costs very good.

My dog urinated all over the couch and stained it. It smelled bad and I had to move it outside the house. The rep from Allstate said they don’t cover odors, and I pointed out that if I didn't tell them that, it would have been covered. Allstate denies you on something that was unrelated and gives you back the warranty expense of what you paid, so they don't have to pay the claim out. Wayfair has refunded the warranty expense, and it went to a credit card that had been closed. I'll eventually get the $47 in the mail. But it was terrible. It's a total scam and I’m not happy with it. I paid for something and Allstate didn't deliver. I'll never recommend them and I’ll never buy the warranty again.

Getting Allstate Protection Plans is a great deal. A lot of people aren't interested in getting warranties. But when it comes to certain types of electronic equipment or appliances, they should get it. I hardly place a call. I almost always do it online. It's easy. Also, the turnaround time is quick. Allstate had somebody come out to attempt to fix the washer. It was still under warranty. They sent someone out twice, but they weren't able to fix it the right way. So, they gave me the money to go out to buy another one. That's fantastic.
I might have bought at least nine different plans from Allstate over my lifetime. I've been in enough situations that I know it's worth it. It may not seem like it at first and it's not always I use it for everything that I buy. But for the things that have broken, it has been worth it.

Squaretrade scheduled an appointment for 8:00 AM the following week. They neglected to tell me it was 8:00 AM PST (I live on the East Coast). The repair person was from a construction company 90 minutes away from my home. How a person from a construction company is qualified to perform a repair on a major appliance is beyond me. Anyway, he never showed up, so I ended up performing the repair myself. The only positive thing about this experience is Squaretrade did send the required part, and it was OEM, not a cheap knockoff. Lesson learned, get your extended warranty from the manufacturer, not Squaretrade.

I have Allstate for my Samsung washer and dryer combo, sectional, couch, for my $3,000 Samsung refrigerator that has all the bells and whistles. I always purchase the extended warranty for anything that I buy from Nebraska Furniture. My couch is a year and three months old, and it's collapsing in two different areas. The chaise area is completely concave, and Allstate hasn't fixed it yet.
Allstate said they will send somebody out between this time and this time. The first time, they changed the schedule on me. When they change the schedule, they give you a link to "view" the new scheduled but you can't click it. So, I sat at home all day on Saturday just hoping they show up. Dan did show up. He thought there was a bunch of springs that might have come undone inside on the base area. Also, he said he will order a new chaise cushion because it was bowed in. He was very nice and made me feel like he was going to get something done. But that's it. I never got the parts.
A new tech came out a couple weeks later, this last Saturday when I sat there all day again. I received an email saying that I'll receive parts, and not to open them. The technician has to open them. But I have not received any. The tech came and said he didn't have any parts and so, he couldn't do anything. Somebody called a couple of days before he came and said the parts should be here. I don't know what's going on. That was weeks ago. I don't know why Allstate sent the other tech out if they weren't ready. I lost two Saturdays now, and I still have the same situation. If the couch is not gonna get fixed, I don't know if it was worth purchasing the plan.

I purchased a dehumidifier online through Walmart and I was offered an Allstate protection plan. It was a wise purchase for me ‘cause I needed it and it did what it was supposed to do when the dehumidifier quit working properly. It was running and it sounded fine but it was not pulling any moisture out of the air. I contacted Walmart and they gave me bad instructions. They said I had to go to the manufacturer, so I wasted about an hour trying to do that. When I finally went back to my email from the protection plan company, it said how to contact them if there was a problem. Once I contacted the protection plan company, everything went fine.
The protection plan was very valuable for me. Otherwise, I would have been out, totally, the money. While I was a bit disappointed that Allstate didn't offer me to buy another one when they shipped me the new one, they offered me comparable items. I would have liked to have had the same unit back, but I've made a choice and the new unit has arrived. It's working fine, so I'm happy.

I gave the reason that the cooler was leaking, and they just assumed that I was filing a claim that I wanted them to repair my floors for the damage that it caused. But once I explained to them that I was looking to get reimbursed for the cooler itself, then things progressed.
I'm satisfied that I got somewhat reimbursed. But the water cooler wasn't a high-priced item, so I'm not sure I would get the extended warranty again. It was a $140 item, and the extended warranty plan was 20 bucks. First of all, Allstate only gives you a store credit. They don't give you your money back. So, I was kind of disappointed with that. It may have been in the fine print, but I didn't read it before we purchased the extended warranty. But for a higher-priced item, I would do it. It may be worthwhile.

A few days later, I got a message saying that it was gonna be reimbursed instead. So, that's irritating. It got my daughter’s hopes up, too.
If you're gonna send options to somebody, they're thinking that they're gonna get it replaced. I was informed that the item was out of stock and I said it didn’t matter if none of the options were exactly the same one that I bought. It didn’t make sense what difference it made whether I got reimbursed, since I could just turn around and buy the watch that I chose online myself.

My son's bike broke. I had no issues get a replacement bike sent out and delivered in a timely manner! So appreciated! The first time it broke the manufacturer sent us parts to replace it ourselves. After it broke a second time the manufacturer warranty had expired and I was able to use my extended warranty through Allstate to get a replacement bicycle.

I never received a renewal notice nor was I warned that my policy would be canceled nor was I informed of said cancellation. I was able to get my policy re-instated 1 year later with the help of a great agent in Ottawa. In addition, they took away my 30 year historical record which added $448 to the premium when the error was at your end.

My TV remote was not keeps its charge. I called Allstate Insurance, they made it easy replacing my nonfunctional TV remote. The customer service representative was very friendly and knowledgeable. I received my replacement within a few days. Once I received the remote, reprogramming was easy. I highly recommend Allstate and Costco insurance.

Repair technician confirmed the issues were both a valve leak and malfunctioning ice maker, he addressed all issues promptly and effectively, this was done with a highly professional repair person provided! Great Job by all involved in my claim process.

Took over a week for Tech arrive to the First time but wrong parts ordered. Then, over a week later, tech arrives again, but no new parts have been delivered. No idea given as to when parts or tech will arrive again. So far, not too happy with the service provided!! I have been left with no washing machine for several weeks now.

This entire experience has been profoundly frustrating and difficult on multiple levels. From start to finish, the process was so poorly handled that I am seriously reconsidering whether I would ever want to file a claim with this company again. The lack of clear communication, the unnecessary delays, and the overall complexity of the procedure turned an already stressful situation into an exhausting ordeal.

I bought an open box pc on eBay with a one-year warranty through Allstate. The pc died after 2 months. Ebay will not help because it is over one month, Allstate won't help, referred me to Squaretrade. Squaretrade will NOT honor the agreement. I spent over 40 hours trying to resolve this and I am having to go to court to make SquareTrade honor the agreement.
Hello Dan Martin,
We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with your recent experience.
SquareTrade offers coverage for a wide range of electrical and mechanical issues, and when the accidental plan is purchased, it also includes physical damage. However, our Terms & Conditions state that we do not cover lost or stolen items. In this case, the protection plan obtained was a Standard Plan, and it was reported that the item is no longer in your possession. We apologize for the frustration this situation has caused.
Currently, one of our specialists has contacted you to offer further assistance and support.

What an amazing process! From the very start Allstate & Square Trade were swift in processing my claim. The best part is that they treated me like a valued customer AFTER THE SALE! That speaks volumes about a company. I tell EVERYONE I KNOW to purchase the protection plan because it’s a win-win! Keep up the good work!

Excellent service reps. Many hiccups with the system along the way. They handled everything for me to keep things moving smoothly. Fast processing. Will continue to have them as my claims carrier. I would suggest that others use the option when getting glasses. It’s better to be safe than sorry - especially when you can work with a co only you can count on.

I purchased an Allstate Protection Plan for my Garmin Vivoactive 5 smartwatch at the time of purchase. The watch has a retail value of $199, and the protection plan cost $30. I filed a claim under the protection plan, and my watch was received by the authorized repair facility on December 16, 2024. As of today, the device has been in their possession for over three weeks with no confirmed repair completion date.
When I requested a status update, I was informed that the delay was due to waiting on parts from the manufacturer. While I understand occasional delays, the length of time without a clear resolution or replacement is unacceptable. When I follow up for escalation I just get told we will get with depot and get you an update. Then I never receive an update.
Despite multiple follow-ups, I have requested either a guaranteed repair date or confirmation of replacement or reimbursement. When purchasing this plan I was not aware this was a repair service, and assumed it was an insurance policy that replaced the device if there were issues with the device. Had I known what I was purchasing I would not have agreed to this protection plan.

Updated on 01/06/2026: I got a call from SquareTrade today. They promised an email within one hour. Nothing arrived. I called back three hours later. Another rep gave the same excuse and promised an email within two hours. Still nothing. This company wastes your time and delivers nothing. The communication is terrible. The follow-up is a joke. I would never recommend to anyone.
Original Review: I do not recommend this company. You get a constant runaround. You call over and over and hear the same line every time, "We will send an email to escalation." Nothing changes. They do not work on Mondays, yet they scheduled my appointment on a Monday. No one communicates or takes ownership. They told me they have no idea when a technician will come out, even though the required part has been sitting at my house for over a month. This shows poor coordination and lack of basic planning. This process wastes time and shows no respect for the customer.

I filed a claim for my eyeglasses. Allstate sent me links and I just went by that. I had to wait for the final approval and it took two weeks after that. It wasn't too bad. There's always some wiggle room.

We haven't had any problems with Omega Auto Care every time we've had a problem with the truck. The claims process is easy. The dealership calls Omega, does all the back and forth, and we just pick it up. So everything Omega said were gonna do, they’ve done. The transmission went out and that was handled well. The axle was messed up, and the issue hasn’t been addressed, and we have to take the truck back. But that doesn't fall on Omega, that's on the dealership.
What’s so frustrating is we bought that truck brand new and they told us it’s covered from front to back. Later on, we were told that the stuff they said they’re covering had nothing to do with the repairs we've had. And we’re in awe of the problems we've had with this truck because it hasn’t even reached 100,000 miles and we’re having repairs at 50,000 miles. If we didn’t have Omega, we’d be in a lot of trouble ‘cause these repairs are very expensive at the dealership.
The only thing we don’t agree with is Omega keeps raising our premium even before our contract is up and they won’t honor the current rate we’ve been paying for. And they say it’s because of the economy and unforeseen circumstances. If you set a contract, no matter what the economy is, you should stick to it. On this point, I feel Omega has failed us as a customer. Aside from that, we’re glad we have it ‘cause they’ve been good as far as covering expenses, and there hasn’t been any issues yet.

When we turned the TV on, it started an update. It was supposed to finish after the update but didn't really bring the system back to normal. It's just still resetting by itself and doesn't go farther than that. So I called Allstate. They sent a technician and told me to do a reset. I followed the instructions, but the problem stayed the same. They decided to just send me a new TV. It's good that I got a protection plan. I work with electronics, and you never know when you're gonna need it. I just try to cover myself. Overall, I'm satisfied with their service.

My tablet was not working properly. It wouldn't stay on and was not charging. I filed a claim online but it just kept prompting me to go to the Allstate site from the buyer that I bought it from. When I went there, it says file a claim. But when I press the button, it wouldn't go any further. It just kept staying at the same screen.
I had to call the number that was associated with Allstate Protection Plans and I got it done over the phone. Everything went smoothly. But I did not like the fact that I didn't get the same item back. I had to get a similar item that was available. That's the only process that I don't like. If I'm filing a claim for something, then I should be able to get that exact item back and not a different one.

When one of the earbuds was damaged Allstate replaced it free of charge. They didn't even have to take it back. I was impressed by that. It was a pain in the butt going through but I was very pleased with the outcome. I have recommended it to others. It’s a unique experience. It’s not for nothing. They said it covered anything, and they did.
I called them on the phone a little bit too for some questions and took pictures of the receipt. It was a very good experience. They did what they promised. If anything happens, it's covered.
