I started my Allstate Protection Plan for my vehicle, and the experience has been very smooth. Customer service was very excellent, and having an extended warranty was fairly valuable.

I’ve had a great experience with Allstate. I’ve purchased different protection plans for various items, usually electronics. Filing a claim was very simple. I can do it online or call them, and they usually determine whether it’s a replacement or a refund. The representatives were very positive, helpful and thorough.

I purchased an Allstate Protection Plan for my Fitbit through the store I bought it from. Filing a claim went fine, both online and over the phone and the representative was good. Though, we're still working on the claim. We sent it in, it came back, but it broke again, so we sent it in again. Having an extended warranty was valuable, and it was worth it.

We had a very good experience with Allstate, so we bought another protection plan for these new eyeglasses. The lenses got scratched, so we questioned the people at Sam’s Club and the guy was very helpful, giving us the brochure and a copy of our receipt. He said to contact Allstate, and that everything will be done online.
My only headache is that the pamphlet didn’t have the telephone number that I had to call to do the claim. It talked about TVs and stereos and heavy electronics, and one phrase about glasses. But once I got the number, it was a piece of cake. We got money to purchase another pair of glasses through a Sam’s store credit.
Allstate is a fair price nowadays. It was definitely worth the $24 to cover the expense of glasses.

I’m an appliance repair person. I pick appliances for a living – If my customer buys one from eBay or Amazon, usually, there is an opportunity to sign up for an Allstate Protection Plan or three or four others I’m familiar with. If there’s a problem, I give them their money back or offer to fix it if I can get a comparable price used part.
Over the years, I’ve sold 50 or 60 Allstate plans but I’ve only had one claim and one reimbursal. I had one part that came in that was bad, and I got reimbursed for the part and got reimbursed for the plan that I paid for.
Filing a claim is a hassle and time-consuming, but I offer it to my customers to give them peace of mind. Allstate, I would say that they’re making money off of me. They insure my personal vehicles, too, at my house. I like the brand. I like Allstate. I’ve been wanting to switch my house insurance over to Allstate as well.

I needed a protection plan, and Allstate has worked out. I submitted a claim for an item that got water damage. I just sent off the items and should get them back within two or three business days. The price was fine, and the customer service was also good. What they covered is what I paid for. I didn't expect them to cover anything other than that.

I purchased a Eufy smart door lock on eBay with a two-year warranty, and the fingerprint sensor didn't work on it. When I went back to Eufy, they said that, as it is considered reconditioned, they only did 90 days, and the additional warranty would be through Allstate.
It took three weeks to get the claim started and going because of a mix-up with my eBay account. It was very frustrating, but I found somebody who, when I called in, was able to help me and get things coordinated. That’s when they said they were sending the payment, which I haven't received. It’s somewhere around $119. I'm assuming it was sent via mail, but it’s been three weeks.
Other than that, everything was good. They were very friendly and helpful. It wasn't their fault that there was some confusion, which they helped resolve. The fact that it was only 90 days from the manufacturer and Allstate got the extra year and nine months is nice – I'm very happy about that. I didn't see anything out of pocket for it, so it must have been built into the cost, which would be excellent, too.

The microwave wasn't heating up the food. I submitted the claim with Allstate Protection Plans and it wasn't complicated. All I had to do was log in and go to all the things that I had up there with Allstate. You basically just tell them your problem, when did it happen, and when did it start. All the information is there already, which is much more updated now from when I did my refrigerator. Back then I had to put the date in and keep switching back and forth. But now, everything is already there.
They told me that the process would take two days, but it was like a day and a half, not even a whole 48 hours. In the end, I got a virtual gift card for the amount that I paid for the microwave. The warranty is actually very cheap. Once I saw the cost, it made sense to sign up because the price was very reasonable. I've been telling everybody to get it because it's good value.

The vibrators in the recliner chairs were making so much noise that they're going out. I looked up my account in Mayfair and I called the insurance company that I have and filed the claim. Allstate said they can't find my purchase order after I filed on the 22nd of February. And now, I have to fill out all kinds of paperwork to prove that I did buy the recliner chairs. I have the receipt from the Mayfair store and I paid for it through my checking account. It's been a terrible experience with them.

I buy protection on everything I buy that's more than $500. Allstate is good. I did not pick them, but when I purchased the Meta Quest 3 through Walmart, that's the insurance that they used.
I filed a claim for it when I got stick drift on one of the controllers. And I tried to clean it, but it didn't work. I remembered I put insurance so I turned it on the insurance claim. I went to Walmart.com and followed the links for the claim. It was very easy. They told me to purchase one, send them a copy of the receipt, and they refunded me my money.

A protection plan for my Galaxy S21 cell phone was included with the purchase of the phone. I filed claim over what started off as a SIM card failure that came and went a couple of times. The third time it came back, I could never get it to restart. I did the claim online and it was very easy. The claims agents were very pleasant, too. They then reimbursed my purchase price for the phone by sending me a check. Overall, I was very satisfied. Customer service, price and coverage are all excellent.

I purchased a laser printer with an extended protection plan from Allstate. When I first got the printer, it kept saying the paper tray was empty over and over. After going back and forth trying to fix it, I finally asked them to send a replacement under warranty and they sent me a second printer.
And sure enough, the second printer did the same thing. I contacted Brother again and was told the problem was with the sensors in the paper tray. After dealing with this for over a year, I finally filed a claim.
I bought the printer from OfficeMax, which is now part of Office Depot, so it wasn’t clear who to contact. Then they said they didn’t handle the warranty and sent me to another place, which also said it had nothing to do with them. It literally took me hours to finally reach someone who confirmed that the three-year extended warranty I purchased was actually covered by Allstate. I ended up dealing with Allstate directly.
At first, they were very reluctant to provide any warranty service. I explained the situation and even got a little snippy with the representative. The printer has been a constant headache. It works sometimes, and sometimes it doesn’t. About 20 minutes later, she called me back and said she's going to take care of this and we’ll put in a claim for the entire printer. That completely surprised me and changed my mind about Allstate. After that they sent me a check for the full cost of the printer for $500.
These days, you never know what you’re going to get when you buy something, especially when spending $500 on a printer, plus tax. Brother has been around for years, but you never know if you’ll get a good one.
I would repeat my experience and say that at first, it felt like pulling teeth to get anyone to respond until I got a little snippy. But I have to give credit to the representative, she went to her boss during the 20-minute interval before calling me back. I have to give her kudos for being so straightforward.

I filed a claim on a TCL TV through Allstate Protection Plans when the screen stopped showing a picture. The process was easy. I started the claim online and they wanted a copy of the receipt, but they already had it. I bought the TV through Walmart, and since I purchased the policy through them, they sent the information directly to Allstate.
The claims representative was good. They’re fast, quick and easy and I don’t have any complaints. They helped me through troubleshooting steps. I connected it to the wall and tried tuning into a station. When that didn’t work, I attempted streaming from another source separate from the cable. I did all of that, but still didn’t get any picture.
She’s asking me to send a picture of everything I'm doing and they would get back to me. I did that, and within a couple of days, they responded saying I would need a new TV because the original one couldn’t be fixed. They sent me a website to find a TV comparable to mine. I found one that was identical, told her that was the one we wanted, and that was it.
I would recommend them. They’re serious about insurance and don’t try to waffle or avoid responsibility, it’s clear whether I’m insured or not. I would say anyone looking for coverage on their items can safely go with Allstate.

I purchased the protection plan for a GE washing machine that I bought at Costco. My daughter used it and it sat there. Another daughter came home from school and she tried to turn it on and said, “Why is it not turning on?” I never buy warranties ever, as a rule. But the place where the washing machine was, it was a pain in the neck to pull it out and put it back in. And I was like, “You know what? I’m going to do it this time.” So, I looked back in my invoice from Costco and did a search for the washing machine and I found the trail.
The rep I talked to over the phone was great, primarily. I had a couple interactions at first, and then I had one that put me off a little bit because she was like, “Well, you weren’t supposed to buy a new machine. You’re supposed to call us back. And we’re not going to cover on your new machine.” That did not sound right. She very much felt like a gatekeeper, but she might have been just doing her job. At which point, I asked, “Can I talk to your boss?” At which point, she let me talk to her boss. And she was like, “Oh, no, we are going to get this handled for you.”
The first couple of people I talked to were so helpful and kind. The first thing I did was I took my phone and I saw the code on my machine. So, I called GE because there was a hot link to call them. I called them and scheduled for them to come out and they were going to be able to come out very quickly. So, I was like, “All right. Well, I’m going to keep that.”
So, when I called Allstate, I already had that appointment. And the person on the phone said, “Normally we send our people out. But if you already have an appointment and we can’t send somebody out for another week, why don’t you keep that appointment if you’re okay with paying up-front? And then we’ll reimburse you.” And I said, “That’s wonderful, love it.”
So that is what we did. But then the GE guy came out and was like, “I’m not unstacking them. And it’s going to cost you $700 for the parts alone. And you are going to have to call somebody to unstack it and pay them.” So, it ended up that it was really not monetarily smart to get it fixed.
He said he would order parts if I wanted him to. And I said,” Okay, I’ll put a deposit on the parts. But I need to reach out to Allstate and see what they say.” So, at that point, he ordered it. Then he gave me an invoice of what it was going to cost on his part to order the parts and to get it fixed.
I very easily could have misinterpreted what was being communicated, and I did not know that Allstate was going to try to find me a new machine if we needed to have it replaced. I just thought they would pay for a new machine. They said that they would give me the amount back, and that it has been approved.
I found a machine from a local company who was the one that came out. He was going to come out and unstack it for me. But he’s like, “Oh, you know, if I unstack it and they fix it and we end up having a problem or we scratch your floors, I don’t want to get involved in that.” So, I said, “I completely understand. What about you have a machine like this?”
And he said, “We actually have this year’s model of that machine, because your machine has been discontinued.” So, I said, “So I have the same footprint,” which was what I was concerned about because I didn’t want to have to hire somebody to move the gas line, move the water line, etc. So I said we would just have to do it. In the end, it was perfect. Nothing ever works out that way. You don’t want to have to get a new stacking kit if you don’t need it. I called him on Tuesday, and he said that they could deliver on Friday.
I have no complaints whatsoever, and, truthfully, I was going get the coverage again for the new machine. It was so nice to have the option to use my own supplier. Allstate ended up being so flexible. In a time when you’re down a washing machine, it’s not the end of the world, but it complicates things. Everybody was smooth and kind.

A dog knocked the prescription glasses off my face. The glasses had an Allstate Protection Plan which I got from Sam’s Club. Filing a claim was easy and I did it online with my phone. The experience wasn’t bad. There was additional documentation that I needed to send in, but it was really quick. The notification came through by email right after I submitted it, so I knew right away something wasn’t right. I fixed it and then it processed and I got paid.
I purchased the extended warranty for several pairs of glasses and had never used it before. So it was such a surprise to know that I’d get back the money for these glasses that got broken just because I spent an extra $25 or $35 when I bought them. I was very happy with it.

It's valuable, depending on what you get the warranty for. Like large ticket items, it's very smart to do that. I'm finding some things that may have cost me 60 to 70 bucks, I have to go through a lot sometimes. But they don't last long, so that's the problem. But it's okay, they've been pretty expedient in getting things done. Overall, it's been good. It depends on who you get.

I purchased a washer-dryer combo back in 2023. Fast forward to March 2025, the dryer is not heating at all, and on certain functions, like timed dry, it does not spin at all. I filed a claim, all the parts they felt was needed based on my call was delivered before the technician arrived. The technician finally arrived on Saturday, March 15, 2025 and did nothing. He said it was not heating due to it not getting enough electricity. The same electricity that the entire house runs on, (go figure). He never said anything about the other problem of the other functions not working. I was not home and when my mom finally called me, he had left. I then reached out to the company the technician worked for. After speaking to 3 different agents, one finally said, how do you know our technician broke it, and can you prove it. Wish I had recorded that conversation.
Since I was getting nowhere with them, I reached out to Allstate, no better outcome though. They went off of what the technician said, which made no sense. So now I am stuck with a dryer that does not work at all. At least before the technician came it was doing a little something. Now I just need them to send someone to bet my dryer going again, is that too much to ask. What's the use of paying for warranty if "they don't cover the issue." This is the message I received after telling them the technician broke my dryer. (After review, it was determined the described problem with your appliance is an intermittent issue. The warranty terms and conditions cover only mechanical and electrical failures that can be replicated at the time of repair. Because no problem was established with your appliance, we will not be able to approve this claim.)

Worst experience. Unrelated questions. They are so courteous while getting the customers signed up for the plans but when it comes to claims they are the worst. Just stalling the time by asking unrelated questions, asking to upload evidences multiple places multiple times thereby confusing the customer and they expect the customer to be on top of answering their questionnaire because they think customers are jobless, have total free time to respond to their endless questions. Finally, they say "oh this cannot be addressed because you delayed answering our questions". Worst service. Never going back.

This insurance product in my experience was such a scam and fraudulent. I bought a $500 5-year warranty through them on a couch I purchased two years ago. It was a $4500 couch so wanted to make sure it was protected. The couch had some framework that was faulty and we noticed trying to pop out of the back. We tried to start a claim and All State for some reason had an account for us set up to the WRONG email there for it took a week or two to get the account properly established and the claim number under the right email address to continue the process.
Then they DENIED my claim because it was outside a 30-day window? (in which was NEVER DISCUSSED with us the multiple times we tried to get this sorted out). We tried to file a claim quickly but had roadblocks in being able to do so because of their system and lack of communication. They said there was NOTHING they could do whatsoever to make things right. The worst experience and just another example of why people think insurance is nothing but a scam. You can’t even trust that they will do what you PAID them to cover. Such a joke and these people should be ashamed of themselves.

BUYER BEWARE! I bought a Samsung on TV because of all the great reviews, Samsung was the only choice as far as I was concerned. I was told by many friends and many professionals saying that Samsung was the best out there. I bought my TV from what I thought was the “AWESOME” Nebraska Furniture Mart. During the purchase the sales Associate (which was amazing) offered us an extended service contract. I thought this was a “no brainer”. Fast forward to when the TV was delivered. It was damaged, NFM ended up replacing the TV because the “ALLSTATE” warranty I bought did not cover the damage. I finally got my TV, and it was perfect. We loved it and were happy with the purchase.
Fast forward to February 2025. I got home and the glass on front of the TV was on the ground shattered. You could imagine my shock and surprise. I made a claim on my “SQUARE TRADE ALSTATE” extended service contract”. They denied my claim without talking to me nor seeing any pictures!! I was “told” the warranty would cover anything. After 3 emails they offered to refund the cost of the warranty. I told them this was unacceptable and that I would be turning to social media so anyone that reads my review will be aware that NFM and SQUARE TRADE BY ALLSTATE are deceitful and will do anything to not pay a claim. They refused to pay the full amount for the TV so here I am letting the world know! BE AWARE!

From start to finish, my experience with my AllState Protection Plan was nearly perfect. The person who took my request for repairs over the phone was pleasant and prompt, the repair man came on the date and time they said they would, and the repairs were completed quickly. This is the best warranty experience I have ever had and I have been through a lot of warranty repairs.

We bought a plan for our pool, an outdoor item. The pool frame has rusted and two legs fell off. They will not cover it. “We cannot approve claims in which the damage to the item is caused due to rust or any weather conditions.” We have had them before and they have covered it, as we’ve had the issue with our first pool (why we bought the plan again.) We also bought the “accidental” policy….so it should cover anything, but apparently an outdoor item can’t have anything related to being outside be wrong with it. I feel like there should not be a warranty offered on an outdoor product, if they won’t cover anything that has to do with outdoor elements, especially with an accidental policy. I guess you’re not in good hands with Allstate.

This is one of the worst customer experiences I have ever had, if not the worst. I bought an item on eBay and upon checkout, was offered a protection plan. However, the vendor never sent the item, and canceled the order without asking me. So you'd think that it would be a simple thing to get a refund for the void protection plan for an item that I have never possessed.
But you would be wrong. I have spent weeks and hours and hours going back and forth between Allstate and eBay. eBay says to contact Allstate. Allstate says to contact eBay. No one makes the case that I am not entitled to a refund. But no one will step up and provide one. As a result of this, I have lost faith in both Allstate and eBay. eBay says that if something goes wrong and you don't get what you pay for, they will step in to help. Nope! I have communicated with a dozen of their reps in addition to calling and emailing Allstate and going to their website.
There is NO support if something goes wrong. Just remember that. This plan is a GAMBLE. There is no support at all if something goes wrong. If something goes wrong then you are stuck paying for a void plan that has no value because no one can make a damage claim about an item that they have never possessed and have never paid for. If Allstate would simply respond to messages on eBay, they could have given me what I needed. Because at first, I had wanted a refund so that I could buy a plan for the item that I actually got.
But no one at Allstate provides any support for this. On the phone they told me to email them, and on email they told me to call. eBay blames Allstate, Allstate blames eBay. They are both partners in this racket. And at this point, I certainly do not want a so-called protection plan from Allstate, nor do I want to do business with eBay. What Allstate has done here in simply collecting risk-free profit from me is insurance fraud, plain and simple, and so I have reported it as such.

However, there are necessary actions customers must take to help us move their claims forward, such as submitting a proof of purchase.

If you're not going to fix it in that time period, you should notify customers with the expected fix time. Also, why do you make it so difficult to get a claim update? 99% of other companies include a simple link to the claim update every time they email with the status. At a minimum you could at least have a link on the email to the All State website. Also, having the MFA go to an email while I'm on email using the phone is way more complicated than having it texted to my phone. You should have an option to be notified by text.

Hopefully you send the replacement as I have always chosen to pay the extra for insurance for peace of mind.... It might not be worth the hassle of all of this back and forth and not knowing.
Hello Santiago,

When it comes to replacement claims, we aim to provide you with a product that is comparable and has the same features as your original item. At times, there could be a delay if the item is not readily available in our inventory since we would have to externally source the replacement.

An Xbox controller's joystick stopped working. My son told me that once he pressed the joystick, it just kept going even if he would let go of the joystick. I contacted Allstate Protection Plans.

I purchased a nugget ice-making machine through Walmart and opted for the 3-year Allstate protection plan. Unfortunately, just over a year later, the motor stopped working. Initially, I faced some hurdles because I'd changed my email address, but I eventually managed to file the claim by phone after the holiday season.
When I contacted Allstate, I was worried about transporting the heavy machine due to my age and location in the country. The representative was very understanding and efficient; she initially instructed me to take it to an authorized dealer. However, upon realizing the logistical challenges, she quickly offered me a full refund instead of requiring return, which I found to be incredibly accommodating and hassle-free.
I was satisfied with how Allstate handled my claim. The refund allowed me to purchase a new machine with the same 3-year warranty, and the new one is functioning perfectly.
I would definitely recommend Allstate's protection plans to others. For a significant investment like this ice machine, having reliable coverage was reassuring. The customer service I experienced was exemplary, making the whole process smooth and stress-free.

Due to these issues, I had to rely on laundromats, spending $40 so far and planning yet another trip.

When I called Allstate, they initially couldn't find my coverage for the refrigerator based on the model and serial number.

I got five emails saying the part was coming. Four of the part shipments came and there was a fifth one that was still on the way. The repairman called and asked me to give him the tracking number. He said, "We probably don't need the fifth part anyway." The repairman who finally came was efficient, completing the repair in about 15-20 minutes, and I was satisfied with his work.

If I don't hear back from you, I'm just gonna pick one and send it to you." I got a reply to that email two days after and it said, "Don't worry about it. If you have more than one part, you can just put them all in one box and use one label on it." They completely didn't understand the fact I had more labels than pieces. I just ignored the thing, picked a label and sent it back and I haven't heard anything.

I filed a claim with Allstate for my protection plan on a television set due to dark spots appearing on the screen. The claim process was straightforward—I just went online to file it, and then I communicated through a series of emails that provided instructions. Overall, the process was relatively simple. In terms of resolving the claim, Allstate decided to refund the cost of the television set, and I'm currently waiting for the check to arrive in the mail. I would rate my experience with the claims process as a 3 to 4. If asked by a friend or family member about this protection plan, I'd say if it's inexpensive, like in my case where it was included with the purchase of the television, it's worth considering. Typically, I do not buy extended warranties, but since this one came with the TV at no extra cost, it turned out to be beneficial.

I purchased a 43-inch TV and got a protection plan directly through the store. Unfortunately, my TV stopped working, so I needed to file a claim. Initially, I went back and forth, being told by the store to call the protection plan service, which was quite frustrating. Thankfully, I spoke with Jonathan from Allstate Protection Plans, and he was very helpful. Before reaching him, I was quite lost, not knowing what steps to take next. Jonathan patiently assisted me in resolving my claim. Frank, whom I spoke to earlier, was also very supportive. Their assistance was invaluable because I was exhausted from the previous runaround. Ultimately, Allstate reimbursed me the $90 sale purchase price for my TV. However, since it was originally bought on sale, I had to pay a bit extra to replace it. Nonetheless, I received my refund in less than a week, which was pretty prompt.

Review for Warranty Service – If I could give zero stars, I would. This warranty service has been nothing but a headache from start to finish. First, they shipped the replacement part without including my apartment number. FedEx even called them to fix the issue, but despite me also calling to follow up, they never corrected it. As a result, the part was delayed.
Then, they rescheduled the service appointment two weeks later without notifying me—so not only did I have to rearrange my entire day to be available, but I had to wait an extra two weeks for a technician to even show up. When he finally arrived, he quickly realized that the part they sent was the wrong one. He assured me that he would notify the warranty company and that I’d receive a call with a new appointment. Two days passed—no call. I had to follow up myself, only to find out they had no record of the technician's visit or his report. They had to track him down and then get back to me.
After all that, instead of actually fixing the problem, they emailed me generic cleaning procedures, which I had already done and had even told the technician about. When I called again, they claimed the technician told them to send me those instructions—completely false, since he had already diagnosed the issue as a sensor malfunction! What’s worse, they didn’t even take the time to understand my issue properly. My dryer works fine on the timer setting, but when I use programmed cycles, it doesn’t dry my clothes—clearly not a vent-cleaning issue. Yet they continued to waste my time with irrelevant steps instead of actually resolving the problem. Now, I’m once again waiting to see how they’ll mess this up next. Absolutely unprofessional and frustrating service.

The process was really easy and quick, and instead of repairing the monitor, they reimbursed me. I would definitely recommend Allstate protection plans to others for the peace of mind they offer.
If asked, I would say having such a plan is pretty good for backup coverage. Although I didn't interact much with customer service as the claim went smoothly online, I felt that the quality of service was good. I would rate my experience with Allstate a 5. The website was a bit tricky at first, so I'd give it a 4 for ease of navigation. Overall, considering the pricing and the service, I would definitely use Allstate protection plans again in the future.

I purchased an Allstate protection plan for my washer and dryer through the store where I bought them. Eventually, I had to use the warranty for the dryer as it wasn't working. The customer service experience was frustrating; they scheduled technician visits and then canceled multiple times. We have a large family, and it was over two weeks. In the end, they never showed up, forcing me to fix the dryer myself, which was disappointing given that I paid for this service.
Allstate did provide compensation, but it was only $100. Considering the inconvenience and the lack of service, I felt this was inadequate. It's baffling that in the DFW area, with so many people, there was apparently only one technician available, who didn't show up. Such service does not meet the expectations for a paid warranty. You also can't use your own technician.
While the customer service was responsive through email, the process felt slow and tedious since I prefer quick phone resolutions. Sometimes you just wanna call and get something done. The process of sending an email, waiting two days to get an answer, sending another email and waiting another two days is something for me to still get used to. Overall, given the disappointing service and inconvenience I faced, I'd rate my experience with Allstate protection plans a 2 out of 5 stars.

I had an experience with Allstate Protection, formerly known as SquareTrade, where I purchased a protection plan for my vacuum. I did it online and printed the necessary paperwork. However, when they printed the paperwork off, it asked me for all the information that was almost in the claim. I went back online to fill out the required details, placed everything in a box and mailed it.
I haven't received confirmation yet on whether they will reimburse me or send a replacement vacuum, but they mentioned it would take 2 to 5 days to review. The process was relatively easy, and this isn't my first time using Allstate for warranty services. I've used them for another item before.
I find the cost of the warranty to be reasonable and, overall, I'm satisfied with my experience with Allstate. I would recommend their services.

I have used Allstate Protection Plans for a few of my electronic purchases, especially for computers since I tend to go through them quite a bit. Recently, my computer screen got cracked. When they repaired it, they replaced the glass top, but the touch screen feature didn't work anymore. I'm not sure if it's something I need to get fixed elsewhere.
In the past, I had a positive experience with them when my TV broke down. They sent me a better TV than I initially had, which was surprising and impressive. The process of filing a claim was fairly quick, although there's naturally some wait time for the repairs, especially when you need the device urgently. Despite these occasional delays, I find the protection plans highly valuable. It's a relief to have them because electronic items can be fragile and prone to breakage during delivery or use.
I've used Allstate protection plans several times over the years and would recommend getting extended warranties because it's just better to be safe than sorry. The protection service itself deserves a top rating from me. However, there might be frustration if the protection doesn't work, which fortunately hasn't been my experience with Allstate. The customer service and level of coverage both rate very highly in my opinion, as do the pricing and the convenience of using my phone to manage claims.
Overall, I've rated Allstate protection plans with top marks across all aspects—protection, customer service, coverage, and price.

I purchased an Apple iPad with an Allstate protection plan. Initially, the explanation about the protection plan wasn't thorough. When my first iPad got damaged, I assumed I could have it repaired in-store, which wasn't the case. I had to go online to file a claim and follow those steps. Although the process was easy, it took a few days longer because of an issue with the shipping label—I had to print it myself instead of them mailing it to me.
Eventually, my screen was replaced, which resolved the issue. I believe the delay was due to it being my first time going through this process. If asked by a friend or family member, I would advise them to spend wisely regarding protection plans. Overall, I would rate my experience with the Allstate protection plan as a 4 out of 5 stars. The customer service was excellent, and I'd rate it a 5.

I recently used Allstate Protection Plans for a purchase I made at Walmart, specifically for an e-scooter I bought for a child this past summer. I generally take up protection plans for products that meet a certain price threshold, and Walmart typically offers these plans during purchase, even though I use the self-checkout option.
In November, the e-scooter began malfunctioning, prompting me to file a claim. Filing the claim felt akin to an insurance process; it had minor hurdles due to the algorithm used online, which automatically tries to redirect users to the manufacturer's warranty. In my case, the scooter's warranty was only for 90 days, so I needed to contact customer service directly after it expired.
The claim filing process was smooth, and within two days, they provided options for replacement. However, I noticed an issue with their algorithm: the proposed replacements did not match the original purchase's price. For instance, the algorithm suggested much cheaper alternatives that weren't comparable. I believe their system could improve in this respect, as common sense dictates that a $200 e-scooter shouldn't be replaced with an $80 foot-push scooter.
Despite this, once I clarified my situation, they promptly provided a gift card equivalent to my original purchase, allowing me to buy another scooter. This experience did not deter me, as I purchased another plan for the new scooter. For those considering Allstate, I believe it boils down to personal preference and lifestyle.
Reflecting on my experience, I would rate Allstate a 4 overall. Their customer service deserves full marks for responsiveness, and the value for money on the plan was satisfactory. However, I would rate the ease of using their website a 3, primarily due to the algorithm issues I encountered. Nonetheless, I'm open to recommending Allstate to others, understanding that everyone's buying habits differ.

I initially learned about the Allstate protection plan when it was offered to me at checkout. I decided to get it for my office chair. Unfortunately, the chair's seat cushion collapsed and was no longer providing support, so I had to sit directly on the plastic shell.
To submit a claim, I found the email from when I purchased the plan and followed the instructions to submit the claim online. This process was straightforward, thanks to a simple form.
However, when I first made the claim, the website instructed me to use the manufacturer's warranty. Unfortunately, the chair was outside the retailer's warranty period, and I received no response from the manufacturer. After the suggested one-year manufacturer's warranty period expired, I resubmitted my claim through Allstate's portal. By then, I was told I had waited too long, and my claim was denied.
I would rate my experience with Allstate as a 1 out of 5. For anyone considering their protection plan, I advise reading the fine print carefully and advocating firmly if a claim is necessary. No specific callback date was provided by Allstate for my issue.

I usually buy protection plans for items I purchase at Walmart. Every time I shop online using their app, I add the Allstate protection plan without hesitation. I’ve filed claims with Allstate three times, and while it was easy to do, only two claims were approved.
The declined claim involved a smart vacuum that started falling apart and making noise just months after purchase. Despite trying to claim, I was told it was too new for coverage. Contacting the manufacturer resulted in the same response, so I gave up and left the vacuum unused.
On the positive side, Allstate was very helpful with my children's tablets on two occasions. Both times the screens were damaged from being dropped. Allstate declared one tablet beyond repair and promptly sent a gift card for a replacement. The other time, they repaired the back and the glass and returned it in good condition.
Overall, I would say Allstate provides a good service for protecting items, especially based on those positive experiences with the tablets. However, the situation with the vacuum was disappointing. If asked by a friend or family about my experience, I would share this balanced view.
As for ratings, I'd give Allstate a potential 5 stars for the tablet protections but only 1 star for the vacuum incident. Averaging it out, I would rate my overall experience at about 4 stars. I find their website easy to navigate, so I'd give that aspect 5 stars. For the pricing of the plans, I'd rate it a 4, also depending on the specific item being covered. Unfortunately, I can't comment on their customer service experience over the phone as I’ve never needed to call them.

I had an unfortunate experience with my Allstate protection plan for a PlayStation controller. Initially, the controller stopped responding, prompting me to start a claim. The process was frustrating. After submitting the receipt number, my claim wasn't processed as promised, leading me to follow up after two weeks. Allstate gave me the runaround, leaving me stuck without results even after visiting Target, where I bought the product.
Eventually, I contacted Target customer service, and after another week, they decided to send a replacement controller directly, bypassing Allstate, despite my paying extra for the warranty coverage. They first sent the wrong part, and after more delays, they finally sent the controller. This ordeal took over a month, by which time I'd already bought a new one out of necessity. I was never reimbursed, possibly because I didn't notify them of my new purchase, and I certainly didn't trust Allstate's insurance again.
Reflecting on this experience, I would rate it as very poor, a 1 out of 5. When deciding to get the coverage initially, it seemed prudent given past issues with controllers. Yet, with the experience I faced, I would not recommend the Allstate protection plan to others due to their flawed claim process. It seemed like an error along the way, but nonetheless, it has left me skeptical of the service.

I had a disappointing experience with Allstate Protection Plans. My couch was severely damaged by my dog, but the claim process was frustrating. I was limited to submitting only a couple of pictures, which didn't adequately display the extent of the damage. Despite the plan stating that furniture replacement was included, Allstate only sent me a cleaning kit, ironically not suitable for the wood and cushion damage I experienced.
I attempted to follow up with their customer service, which initially seemed promising as they asked for details and even suggested I would receive a replacement. However, after multiple interactions, I received only the cleaning kit, which was ineffective. Their insistence on first sending the kit before considering other options was confusing and unhelpful.
Despite the dissatisfaction with the outcome, I found the customer service representatives polite and responsive via both online and phone interactions. If I were to rate my experience based on coverage and claims fulfillment, it would be quite low. However, the ease of use of their online services and the customer service itself would be rated higher.
This experience has left me regretting my purchase of the plan, as it did not fulfill its promises.

Target only offered Allstate warranties. And after buying two products neither had a good solution. The first was a PS5, and less than a year after having it we discovered the disc drive doesn’t working. After calling both Target and Allstate back and forth for about 2 hours the solution was to go through Sony because it hadn’t been a year yet. Allstate refused to honor the first year of my 2 year warranty.
Next was a new controller purchased for the ps5. Allstate made me purchase a new controller, and then added a deductible so I couldn’t even get all the money back for the controller. If I had 80 bucks to blow on controllers I wouldn’t have even bought the warranty to begins with. Safe to say I will be doing more research and doing my best to avoid buying any electronics that do warranties through Allstate in the future.
