I filed a claim because my screen was cracked. I received my new phone the next day. It was a quick and simple process. I was on the phone for approximately 10 minutes. I did have to call back to pay the deductible but that's ok. Thank you!

Having an unfortunate moment it was good to have insurance on place for my phone. One phone call was all I need and the best part was having the replacement next day right on my door. I was very pleased and surprised how fast was everything.

This was my first, (and hopefully last), time making a claim. I was a bit distraught because as a truck driver I cannot go without a phone. Assurant did an awesome job though, my replacement device arrived very quickly, was packaged VERY well and was as good as new. Not s single flaw or blemish. They provided return pre-paid packaging for my old phone and kindly let me know when it arrived. I hope I never have to use them again, but I will always keep my phones insured through them....just in case.

Once we figured out that I had given the wrong phone number, duh, things went so smoothly! Pleasant personalities to work with, too! The instructions were simple and clear, and each associate I spoke to mentioned it at the end. I found the reminder helpful. I also found the return, postage paid envelope helpful. All-in-all a great experience!

While on vacation out of the states, my phone was either stolen or lost while riding a golf cart. Either way, when I notified my hotel security, we activated locate my iPhone and it was turned off. I call my carrier and told them what happened and they transferred me to Assurant. This was January 27, 2020. To this day I still don't have a phone. They asked for the account holders license which I gave, they said it wasn't the right format so I struggled through to give them another copy. I'll admit I am not that computer savvy with jpegs etc. Then they asked for my license, I asked if they needed front and back and just rep said no, just the front. Next day they said they needed the back, then they said the picture wasn't big enough! So struggle through on how to make a jpeg bigger.
Finally I get the letter they accepted my documents and approved my replacement on Thursday night @9:00ish. They again sat on it the whole day of Friday till the evening and then sent it to UPS. Scheduled delivery is now Monday February 10. That's 2 weeks. I told them I had no house phone, 4 kids, one of whom has severe autism and that if I ever needed 911 I would be in trouble. They absolutely did not care. I called and asked them if I could send them anything else to help their decision. I called and asked for a supervisor and was put on hold for 15-20 only to be disconnected and not called back. Terrible way of doing business and treating consumers. I will be cancelling my $15 monthly insurance that each of us pay this company (we have 5 phones within our family). I'd rather spend the money on a new phone hassle free! I am very aggravated with their lengthy process. 2 weeks without a phone is unacceptable.

Assurant could not log into my account several times and when they finally could the replacement phone they sent me had a distorted lighting on the screen and a battery that would empty after 20 minutes of use. After trying to correct the problem I was lied to by a customer service rep after he told me a supervisor would be calling me to get me a functional phone. It is total ** that I’ve paid for this service for years and when I finally needed they were unable to provide service in any way. The phone has no lens and I ended up having to purchase a replacement battery from Amazon. Because of this experience I am switching mobile providers and going with ATT. If this is the only insurance option through T Mobile then I want no part of it. Horrible business.

I am happy with the initial response from the Assurant team upon filing a claim. However, I am a little confused as to why a refund could not be issued closer to the refuse date of the loaner phone on 1/31/2020. I only just received an email today which puts us out over a week and potentially an additional 10 days for reimbursement. As I paid the fees on a credit card, my credit card will assess its interest based on borrowed amounts. If the $249 is still considered a viable charge during their assessment period, I will be charged more in interest. This refund turn around time I am dissatisfied with. Thank you.

This is for my last experience with Assurant. My phone was stolen and the replacement took 5 days! Lots of money lost (as this is a business and everything phone) in the time my case was being reviewed by an “unreachable” review team which I think was ridiculous. I think why do I pay for insurance when the income lost was probably enough to buy a new phone outright.

Not only was I sent a phone without the SIM card installed, I was not given any instructions on how to input the SIM card. In addition, my phone would not dial after the first day, and I had to return to the U S Cellular provider for them to insert a new SIM card. Now the phone is doing some crazy things, which is difficult to explain, such as the toolbar goes to the center, with message scrolling in the background. Text shows sideways, etc. I am not pleased!

My replacement phone was stolen off of my front porch. Not only was I told that nothing could be done about that, I was reassured that if I turned in the old broken phone I could refile a claim and still get a new replacement. Both times having to pay the 100$ deductible. So I did, and am now without a phone and was informed that I would not be getting any replacement at all. This is insanity.

My One Plus 7t Pro screen was damaged on the 15th of January. I submitted my claim the same day. On the 17th I paid the premium and my phone was shipped out. I was scheduled to receive my replacement phone on the 18th. However it was never delivered. As UPS claimed to have lost the package and was unable to locate it. On the 28th UPS informed me that they had verified they lost my package with Assurant and that I would have to deal with the sender for another replacement device to be sent to me.
Since then I have continuously failed to resolve this with Assurant as they keep coming up with added reasons for me to wait additional days to have them ship out my replacement device. Each month I pay my phone bill I pay for the insurance on my devices. I also paid the deductible. Yet even after UPS verified they lost my phone Assurant has refused to correct the situation. I pay for insurance yet I have no assurance this matter will be resolved anytime soon.

I claimed insurance on an LG V30+ (the plus sign indicating an upgrade from the base model). Your 'service,' however, insisted that my device was sufficiently replaced by the LG V30 (notice the lack of a plus sign in the model name). Luckily, the first Assurant employee I managed to get a hold of was fully-competent and, somehow, took pride in their job. They, too, thought that the systematic downgrade was bizarre and this employee diligently apologized for Assurant's malfeasance, asked me to ship the mistaken downgrade back, and, once it was safely in the mail, asked me to call and inform Assurant of the status of my claim - Assurant would send a proper replacement ASAP. . .
Days later, I was reminded of Assurant's systematic ignorance and neglect as I was told by a different employee that indeed: A) the base model LG V30minus was the proper replacement for my duly covered, different device, B) it was, in fact, Assurant's standard operating procedure to willfully downgrade paying customers when Assurant no longer held stock of insured devices, C) there was zero possibility of attaining an equal or greater device to the one originally covered by $400 of insurance. This, after ten minutes of struggling with another employee who replied to every single query in the manner of a 1990s AOL chat bot. . . Thanks for the sub-par service, Assurant. It has been a fully dis-pleasurable experience.
I've cancelled coverage and can only hope that the $15/mo I'm not paying for your your blunderful services will save me enough to buy a replacement for the ** refurbished battery you included in the LG V30- downgrade. Mr. & Mrs. Assurant could have taken a shrink-wrapped deuce in the the phone box and sent that to me instead. I still would've rated you two stars for honesty and family values.

I filed my claim 10 days ago, and long story short, I still don't haven't received a functional* replacement phone. When you factor in the high deductible and all of the time wasted, I should have just ordered the parts and fixed my phone. Over 3 years I've paid for this insurance and the one time I needed it, they completely dropped the ball. I'm canceling this service and leaving t-mobile. Pictured is the replacement I was sent.. Barely covered with plastic from a iPhone (the replacement is a Samsung). The box was in perfect condition and the phone was snuggly placed so it's really hard to believe it broke in transit...

We had to call, order, and fix incorrect orders multiple times. You all said overnight and it took more than a week. This is by far the worst service I've ever experienced from an insurance claim provider and you guys have customer service that ranks down there with Comcast. You should all be embarrassed as I've seen circuses with better organization and communication. Words cannot express how terrible your service is and the only reason I'd ever use it again is if I'm absolutely forced to. A lot of fingerpointing and apologizing but no responsibility or intelligence.

I filed a claim and paid the deductible before the cut-off time to receive my replacement device the next business day, which was Monday. The website specifies the cut-off time on Saturday. Upon speaking to a rep, they told me this was inaccurate. I use my phone for work and I had to wait longer than expected. Also, the rep told me that the FedEx tracking number provided to me in my confirmation email was a random, made-up number. Which was a lie.

When I processed online The system didn’t bring over the memory variance so the system could not process it. She updated the memory variance and said they had PLENTY of my device in stock. So I asked, if it’s supposed to be overnight shipping Why am I the customer having to reach out to the company to resolve this issue. Why didn’t I get any type of notification with from care or email telling me something was wrong. No response. Then I asked what could be done because we were now two weeks from day of reporting that my wife has not had here replacement. An apology.

Giving one star might be too much but I have to so here goes. In mid-December 2019 my wife dropped and broke her phone. No biggie, we have it insured with Assurant. I started a claim and the replacement phone was sent right out. We had the new phone activated and the next day promptly mailed the broken phone in the pre-paid envelope. Shortly after I began to receive letters stating I needed to return my broken phone or I would be charged. I called them after receiving each letter to find out what was going on. After the second letter it was discovered that the USPS had attempted a delivery to Assurant's warehouse located in TX but was not successful.
Nearly 3 week went by and this was out of my mind. I believed the phone was finally delivered and all was well. Then I get a 3rd letter stating the phone still had not been delivered and that Assurant is going to hold me liable for another $200 if the phone is not received in 30 days. First thing I do is check the tracking and see that the package was in fact delivered on Jan. 2nd. Next I call Assurant to figure out what is going on. They put me on hold for a lond period of time then proceed to tell me they spoke with their warehouse in TX and my package was delivered, sealed with no phone inside!!! Long story short the supervisor I spoke with says I'm SOL!
I immediately call US Cellular and speak with a CS rep. where I find out that US Cellular has not renewed their contract with Assurant as an insurance provider for their customers. Obviously they won't tell me why but it was telling. Next I contact the USPS and they begin an investigation for me regarding this. The next day, today I was contacted by a supervisor from the town where this warehouse facility is located in TX and she was extremely helpful and enlightening!! Turns out they are fielding a large amount of calls similar to mine!
Here is the thing Assurant, I am not a thief or a liar but it's possible if not likely an employee at your TX warehouse is. Or this is going on organizationally? Either way, I will be contacting my personal friend and local county sheriff here in IL along with the authorities where your warehouse is located in TX. I literally just stopped at my local US Cellular outlet to cancel my Assurant insurance. I will not be extorted for an additional $200 and I will be making every attempt to get to the bottom of this matter.

Assurant - a shady not really for my device insurance provider. To begin with, have a process designed to deny claims. Make me determine the correct model, capacity and color with the caveat that a wrong selection will deny my claim.

How galling to then have the replacement phone sent NOT be the device warrantied but considered equivalent by you. I never would have gotten the insurance if I understood it was for whatever device you wanted to send back. That being the case, I will now go cancel the insurance with Assurant/T-mobile and pay less for real insurance from Samsung. Needless to say, I do not consider my claim resolved.

Still to this day I have not received my cell phone. Well this is what happened. My cell phone that I had purchased at Metro pcs had broke just a couple days after I had bought it. Well I did the insurance claim on it and paid the 50$ deductible. I was supposed to receive my phone within 24 hours. Well I had filed the claim on the 23rd of December so I wasn't able to receive my phone until the 26th after Christmas. So I gave my address to metro and Assurant and my phone was supposed to go to my mail box or the office in my apartments. Well Ups left my cell phone on the door step in my apartments. I don't even think that the ups guy even knocked on my door. Well the package was stolen off of my doorstep. So I had to file a report with ups so they could send me a new package. So I did and they told me that they had to do a 14 day investigation.
Well I waited 15 days and never heard anything about my phone. So I called ups and they told me that they tried to call me at the contact number that I gave them like 4 days into the investigation and they were not able to get in touch with me so they had cancelled the investigation. Well of course they couldn't get in touch with me, because I don't have a phone and the contact number that I gave them was my roommate's cell phone number. And she didn't even know that they had tried to get in touch with me. So when I talked to ups I told them that they needed to re open the investigation and they said ok that they would contact me within 8 days. Well it is now January 30 and I still don't have my cell phone and have yet to hear from ups. When I talked to ups they told me that the sender of my package would be contacting me. I've heard nothing from anyone. And I'm very disappointed with metro pcs, assurant, and ups.
The package should have never been just left on my doorstep in my apartments without a signature. It should have went to the office in my apartments or my mail box. I never told anyone that yes it was ok to leave any package on my doorstep. I wouldn't do that. So now I have paid cash money for my cell phone and for the service and only had my phone for 2 days and I did everything that I was supposed to do to receive my new phone. But I have yet to receive it. A whole month later... I am not very happy about it.

I do not wish for file another claim to get this problem fixed as that is what I was told I would have to do. Besides that I enjoyed the service.

Then for me to spend time and money going to T-Mobile for warranty exchange to be told, 1) they can't due to a red indicator; 2) had I waited another day I would have had to pay $99 again; 3) now I have to hope the backup is adequate because I have to wait, however long for a label, I will have to go get printed out, then find a FedEx brick & mortar to send you this phone and be without; 4) the label comes when it comes so...

I I have had assurance phone insurance for the past 8 years for my phone. I’ve only needed to use this insurance policy once before, which required for me to pay the deductible for the replacement phone, which came the next day. January 14, 2020 the day of which I was robbed of my phone and wallet, I called the insurance company to address and proceed with a claim for my stolen phone. I explained the details of the robbery. My bag was stolen which consisted of my up to date identification card as well as the brand new phone which I am trying to replace. I was told that I could send my expired identification as proof of identity to verify my account since my up to date identification was stolen.
I submitted my expired identification several times via email, after being assured by multiple representatives it was valid to use. I received an email 2 days later from assurance stating that I needed to call in to complete my claim. There were issues with the copies of my expired ID, ie. too blurry or too small (but was never told that the Id being expired was an issue). After rectifying the issues I was then told that my expired Identification will not be eligible to be used for verifying my account. This is extremely inconvenient for me being without a phone for over two weeks!
I feel as if there is no empathy or compassion for my situation from the company, which I have been such a loyal customer to and it’s disheartening that I have been misled by every last representative I had spoken to. I am confused as to why you would need to verify my account again if I verified my account while speaking with each and every representative. Can I please be directed to someone or another department who can further assist me better while I await my new identification the mail. And please be aware I am still phone less suffering greatly with work, and family because I am incapable of being contacted. Thank you.

UPDATE - Assurant surprised me by reaching out directly after my previous review and went above and beyond to make sure my experience was above expectations.
Original Review: Jan. 28, 2020
I had a black Note 8 and had to have it replaced through Assurant. They informed me that the comparable device is a Note 9. The first issue is that the replacement device is purple and not black. Not the biggest deal. The bigger issue is that the device performance is not ideal. The battery life is substantially shorter (lasts less than a day with normal use) and the processing speed is noticeably slower. The most frequent glitch is that the keyboard only disappears halfway unless I press the back button. I wish there would have been an option to just repair the damage on my original device.

After my wife accidentally damaged the screen of her Galaxy S8 we went through the process of filing a claim, which was extremely easy and fast.

The replacement device came with accessories and even packaging to easily send out my damaged phone (no postage necessary). I put my old phone in the protective sleeve and packaging and sent it out a couple days later in order to avoid the unrecovered device fee.
The ONLY issue I have with my experience is not knowing whether they actually received the device I sent because there is no tracking number for it. I shipped it out on Sunday 1/19/20. It is now Tuesday 1/28/20 and it still says they have not received the device I sent out. If there was a way to easily track the device I sent out, it would be a 5 out of 5 for me.

I had a Samsung Note 5 that had a failed LCD Screen. I went into the local T-Mobile store and they confirmed the LCD was bad and informed me that the replacement would be an equivalent phone which was a Samsung Note 8. I contacted Assurant to file my claim and was informed the the replacement would be a Samsung S8 Edge which I did not consider an equivalent for the following reasons: 1. It did not have a stylus and comparable software to make note and draw sketches. 2. I had existing files that were backed up using the note Stylus that I would like to use in the future. 3. The Samsung S8 Edge was a significantly smaller screen that the Note 5/Note 8. 4. I have an Samsung S7 Edge and I do not like the phone and the rounded edges make it very difficult when creating and sending message.
I was given the option of requesting another phone and I did. I selected what I thought was equivalent a Note 8, 9 and 10 (3 choices were requested) and was told Assurant would review this and get back to me with 72 hours. I was contacted within that time and was informed that my review was rejected with no specific reasoning. I am very disappointed with T-Mobile and its insurance division, Assurant and will review leaving T-Mobile. I felt that my request was ignored and for the amount of insurance that they have collected over the past for years is very significant and I will consider this as I consider switching to another more friendly Mobile phone carrier.

The agent was helpful and courteous, despite my lack of knowledge. He walked me through the process and answered my questions with patience. He knew what was needed to help me. I would definitely use this company again. Bravo!

Everything was handled professionally. However my replacement phone was dead upon arrival and would not power on. Contacted Apple to get another replacement. Everything seemed to be in order. Called again yesterday because it’s been a week and I haven’t received emails or confirmation. Apparently there was nothing on file about another replacement phone being on the way. I did have a confirmation number but it’s like nothing was ever attached to it to confirm. Hopefully this time around I will eventually get my replacement phone and it will be in working order.
We are sorry for this inconvenience. We can have our escalation team look into this issue so that we can get it resolved. Please send a private message with a good contact number for you so that we can have a representative reach you directly.

Customer service excellent as always and the insurance paid is worth it completely. Love the replacement phone so far. It's fabulous. It's better than the phone I had before even and love the HD quality and videos are crystal clear and also love that I can go a whole day without charging it!

I was able to get my new phone the next day! When I worked for a cell phone carrier people had to pay extra for that. It was pretty easy to file the claim as well. I'm really impressed with how streamlined it is now.

From beginning to end everything went very smoothly and quickly. The rep at US Cellular reset my phone and was very courteous and all my apps, contacts and e-mails were back on the new phone in no time. I didn't realize that there was a $99.00 deductible but having insurance probably saved me $500.00 for a new phone so I was happy to pay it.

It took about 2 weeks for them to process claim. I never got notify about them needing my phone bill. I was the one calling to find out about the process. And on top of that once I send the phone bill they kept saying that they never received it. I had to email and upload more than 2 times..
We are sorry for this miscommunication and delay, Diana. We hope that we have the opportunity to provide you with a better customer experience in the future.

Received the iphone11 Pro Max 512 tree on Jan 15th/2020 (excellent fast and attentive). Received a bad phone factory defected signal issues (very bad). Called 1/16/20 to repost and to solve to the issues. They couldn't help me (very very bad). They said do master reset. I did and non result. Called second time. 2 days later mentioned iPhone has bad connection signal and it interfere with my business and asked to Get a another replacement iPhone. The person who was helping me from Assurant hanged up on me. Very rude and unprofessional. Hope it gets solved.

Took 12 hours for claim to process. Missed deadline for next day delivery. I was without a phone for 4 days, even though all I had was a cracked screen that I could have walked 10 minutes to have fixed at a local shop same day. Not happy, you've had two strikes so far in my book. The last claim was an awful experience too.
Our apologies for the inconvenience of the delay and we hope we have an opportunity to give you a better experience in the future.

Received my phone and instead of the grey LG I had I got a pink one, I can just get a case but why not just send the same color phone. Also it'd be nice to include the sim tool to open the slot, luckily I found a paper clip that worked.
Thank you for your feedback.

Brief call with customer service and replacement phone showed up in less than a day. Excellent service. Highly recommend this program to everyone. I thought it was expensive but it paid off in the long run.

The initial contact with the company and the customer service I received was horrible. The people I spoke with were clueless on how to address my situation and I got more help & understanding from the T-mobile rep I spoke with. Even after the claim, there was STILL no clear communication from this company. I had to actually CHAT on your website... a FEW times to find out I needed to upload a recent bill. The ONLY good part of the company experience was after all the legwork on my end to verify myself (funny, I have been paying $15/month for 14 months, but I have to verify myself?!) that the phone came quick and as promised after my claim got approved.
We appreciate your feedback and we hope that we can give you a better customer experience in the future.
