    This company is the best, anytime I lose or break any of my phones (I have 6) they replace them overnight hassle free, I would never switch this company for another one. My kids, wife and I feel very secure having an insurance with them. Thank you ASSURANT!!

    Original Review: July 3, 2019

    Such awful customer service. I have been a customer of T-Mobile for many years. I am paying $15/month for their premium insurance. This insurance was sold to me because it included water damage. I filed my claim on 7/1 online. All paperwork was accepted and received by 1:00pm. I called later in the day to check on it and was told first that they needed information from T-Mobile before they could proceed. I called T-Mobile to try and expedite the matter and did a 3-way call with T-Mobile and Assurant. I was then told that my claim would be approved in 24 hours and I would have phone by 7/3. For some reason I am unable to get info on their website and get a message that they are doing system maintenance. So I went online and did a chat with a rep who again told me 24 hours and phone would be sent to me. They confirmed the type of phone I would be receiving.

    It is early evening and I have not received an email confirmation, so I called Assurant. I was told by the first rep that she had to complete more paperwork for me, but it would be 24 hours. I explained to her I was told that yesterday. I have verified and reverified all my information. I was on hold for 30 min and the call was disconnected. I called back AGAIN and was told, "I'm sorry, we have to wait for 24hours". I spoke to a supervisor who told me they have all my paperwork and she isn't sure why they claims department is taking so long but nothing she can do. Because Thursday is a holiday, I likely won't have my phone until Friday at the earliest and that's if they actually process my paperwork. As of now it's in limbo and no one can do anything about it.

    My daughter dropped her phone and it was done for. I was a bit upset but the process of replacing it went very well thanks to the wonderful people I had to talk to. It did cost $99 which was a small price to pay for the peace of mind in knowing it can be replaced so quickly.

    This is by far the worst insurance company for cell phones. I had one of my multiple cell phones lost and they really make it hard to process your claim and get a phone out there. No wonder they have a horrible rating. Cell phone companies should let you pick and choose your insurance carrier, not monopolize you to one: specially this one that's not only the most expensive and has the highest deductibles but is the worst when processing your claim. When taking your month payment it's great but when processing a claim: sit tight!!! Not an enjoyable ride. ***Warning*** Not worth it & very disappointing.

    Assurant is the only insurance provider available to me & their bill is paid through my cell phone provider bill (T-Mobile). It has always been paid and current, and I have always carried insurance on my new device(s). I was out of town & my Samsung Galaxy S9+ was stolen. I filed a claim that day, and Assurant sent me the INCORRECT (much older) device as a replacement. I notified them of their error, and they said they would file a new claim for the correct device but would need to review the claim for an additional 3-5 days due to the error. No problem. I followed up with a manager to ensure they noted the account of Assurant's error and requested the claim be escalated. He said he would do that.

    After 4 days, the claim was denied and stated that I did not have insurance at the time of the claim, so I notified T-Mobile and Assurant who both verified that I did have insurance at the time of the claim. Assurant is now telling me that the only way to dispute their decision is in writing - via regular mail. They clearly did not read the notes on the account, nor do their due diligence to process the correct claim and I am beyond frustrated & disappointed in their unprofessional, lack of efforts on my behalf.

    After writing my review a representative on an escalated claim level reached out to me to resolve the problem . Nathan was able to handle this situation and quickly come up with a resolution. -Thank you. My phone is now awaiting shipment. FYI..... start a claim as early as possible, you do not have to pay the deductible in any set time frame and the replacement phone will not be sent out until you do.

    Original Review: July 1, 2019

    My son dropped his phone and cracked the screen. My wife and I decided to make him earn the money for the deductible (took a couple months). Meanwhile I gave him my old phone to use while he saved up the money. When I submitted a claim for his phone it was denied because the SIM card was put into a different phone than the phone covered under the policy even though at the time the phone cracked it was the covered phone under the policy. The customer service agent just kept repeating a scripted response with no resolution to the problem, telling me I would have to contact my carrier. Completely useless. I don't know if the CSA didn't understand what I was saying or if she just didn't care, probably both. Now I'm stuck paying for a cracked phone and INS. that are both completely useless.

    My husband lost his iPhone when, presumably, it dropped out of his pocket at the Lowe's parking lot. Unfortunately 30 minutes later when he realized he no longer had it, he went back to the Lowe's parking lot and when he didn't see it there, asked in the store if any Good Samaritan may have turned it in - no luck there, so I was on the phone with Assurant. They were so helpful and immediately approved the claim and within a few days my husband had a new phone. Definitely appreciated their help and the expeditious manner by which they handled our situation.

    I've been paying for insurance pretty much since I can remember and the 1st time I do a claim. I get an email that it was approved and it would be expedited 24 hour shipping. We'll 24 hours passed and I was patient since sometimes I get it's different timezones 48 hours. Pass... 72... Now I'm at day 4. No tracking number or information. I call in and I'm informed that my device is back ordered with no estimate of when I'm going to receive my device.

    What is frustrating is that I had to be the one to call to be told this and be told I just have to wait, no other solution. It's baffling to me that you say it's 24 hour next day shipping but fail to tell customers you don't have a device in stock. Teach your employees about how empathy really works. I don't like hearing I understand because they don't. They don't understand how infuriating it is not to be told the whole truth and be without a device. Definitely purchasing insurance through a different company in the future.

    Assurant was quick to replace my defective device after I told them the battery was swelling and I was afraid of it exploding. I still believe a 7 day “warranty” period is ridiculous. Thank you to them for the quick resolution.

    Original Review: June 28, 2019

    Everything about the claim process was easy, fast and painless. Received my replacement phone in just a couple days. However.... There is only a 7 period grace period for any devices to be sent back for problems. I am 20 days past that period and my screen has started separating from the iPhone on one side. I’ve dropped and beat up plenty of old phones and have never seen the screen just separate from the phone this way. I now have a useless phone and am being told that I have to file another claim and pay another deductible. After paying insurance monthly for years and years it’s very disappointing to see this company only care about making more money.

    Leaving a well deserved review. I filed a claim on Friday June 21st, 2019. On Monday June 24th, was asked to send in proof of identity. No biggie... I send it in driver's license which was told to me and stated on the website, would take 24 hours. Well fast forward to 48 hours it was not accepted so a phone bill was requested and sent Wednesday June 26th. Well the 24 hour process time that was told to me by 4 agents was not met AGAIN. I asked to speak to a supervisor, he was kind enough to escalate my claim for me, but I asked to speak with a manager about the 48 hour wait I did not want to go through AGAIN! This manager named Marpin, then told me it takes 48 hours not 24 hours, to get approved. He only told me that because the 24 hour deadline was not met.

    On the website, and 4 different agents I spoke with ALL told me it only would take 24 hours to process, so when I asked him why he was the only one saying different, he was all of a sudden lost at words and told me there was nothing he could do, that the people that review are not there, and are probably busy so they didn't get it approved within 24 hours. During this whole situation I now am having to wait over a week for a replacement device. Sadly, after this I will no longer carry insurance with this company because their moral and customer promises are not met to my expectations. Who ever reads this if you care... should really update your website to reflect 24-48 hours so that you don't have ANOTHER upset, and frustrated customer. Thank you, Edith **

    I purchased a specific color phone originally for a reason. I am disappointed I am spending $10 a month PLUS a deductible of almost $200 for them to send the wrong color and do nothing about it. It sound sounds silly, but when you have a family with the same phones, color helps keep the phones separate. The phone took 2 days to get to me too even though they guarantee overnight shipping. I wish we had a choice into what insurance company we choose.

    I filed a claim with Assurant. During the claims process I was never asked for the IMEI for the device being claimed. I assumed that they would retrieve the information from T-Mobile's systems. Well lo and behold, the IMEI in T-Mobile's systems hadn't updated yet and was still showing the IMEI for a previous device. Now my claimed has been denied and of course Assurant is refusing to refile the claim with the correct information. Assurant is by far one of the worst companies i have ever dealt with. Their oh-well attitude to the fact that you're out of a $1,000+ device is really frustrating. I will definitely be seeking legal advice in regards to filing a suit against this company.

    Original Review: June 27, 2019

    Updated on 07/02/2019: So I previously gave the company a 1 star rating on here. After that is when Rose contacted me and everything finally got settled with my son's replacement Samsung J7. She was definitely very helpful, she resolved the matter quickly, and actually called me back when she said she would. My biggest problem is that I should have received this kind of service from the very start. It shouldn't have taken a negative review on this site to FINALLY get this issue resolved. While as helpful as she was, the company as a whole is lacking, with employees that could care less about finding a solution to a problem on their end. So 2 stars is all I'm willing to give it and I still wouldn't recommend anyone use them.

    Original Review: I have no idea why T-Mobile is using Assurant. I submitted a claim for my damaged phone that I have had for 3 years paying insurance and never filed a claim previously. I was informed that my phone was not in stock in the warehouse and my only option was to purchase the phone myself and wait to get reimbursed. They would not even reimburse the full value of what a replacement phone would cost. I asked for a Supervisor and was hung up on. I called again and was told they had to fill out a template to get someone to call in 24 hours, no one called. I called again and all they did was resubmit the same template. This is unacceptable.

    Filed a claim on an S8 Active due to charging port issue. Agent confirmed an "in kind" replacement would be dispatched after deductible was paid. Received an S8 which is not acceptable. Contacted customer service and was hung up on by agent and not called back, seemed intentional. Got a hold of a supervisor and was told S8 was all that was available but would send a return label for returning the S8. Supervisor recommended going and buying a new one from T-Mobile if that was the acceptable model. S8 was returned but no return of deposit. So, Assurant is collecting insurance premiums for products the cannot support, supply inferior replacements, and keeps deductibles for products they haven't replaced.

    I needed to get my Apple Watch replaced and I was first told that it would be 60.00 by a worker from assistant and I told them I’ll save up that amount and call back when I have the money to pay. I called a month or so later and when I was fully through the claims process and was told the price I was now told it was going to be 90 something dollars instead of the 60.00. They didn’t want to help me find out who said they and why she just wanted me to pay the 90 even after I asked to speak to a manager. She refused and continued to tell me to pay the amount. I finally just paid it so I can get my replacement. I’m so upset of the lack of communication from the workers saying things and then changing it up. Better customer service would be nice. I will be canceling my insurance with Assurant and go through another company to fix my phone and watch if they where to break in the future.

Within minutes in received an email it was approved. Since I did the claim over the weekend the 24 hour shipping time was delayed but I received the phone on Monday.

    I never had to be so upset to file a claim for a lost phone, where the rep completely messed up everything. Even after specifically providing the information to the rep. My phone was delivered almost a week later. I had to go pick up my phone at UPS since they couldn't deliver it to the address for some odd reason. The name was incorrect on the delivery. I had to waste my time to go pick up the phone and had another person come with me so they can pick up the package instead of me. Seriously one of the worst experiences I've had in a while.

    The phone they sent to me was messed up. I do not feel as though we have to pay thousands of dollars for phones and we end up getting a refurbished phone when we're paying for a replacement over $100. This has happened to me more than once over the years. Either they need to do better on checking the phones they send out or they need to send us phones brand new. We end up paying thousands of dollars for these phones on our bills altogether. Why should we have to get a refurbished anything. Send us a proper phone or at least make sure extensively that the phone will work properly.

    I lost my phone and called Assurant customer support to start the process of putting in a new claim. The gentleman (for lack of a better word) was reiterating the same dialog. He did not listen to me and then proceeded to lie about the information he gave me (which was confirmed after I spoke to a manager at a later date). I had originally filed the claim online. When I called to see where my phone was, the representative told me that I had just filed the claim that day (after I was put on hold and transferred to HIS manager). I had the confirmation number as proof I did not file it that day.

    It was a complete disaster in customer care. I did finally get a new case manager and she resolved the issue. This was after many days of trying to get the issue resolved. The woman apologized profusely about the previous manager and did call me back 24 hours later to make sure she had resolved the problem. She was very helpful but it left me feeling like the process needed a lot of changes. I would not suggest this company to anyone.

    I filed a claim with Assurant and it was handled very quickly. Shipped my replacement overnight. Well that is the only good thing I can say about this company!!! I noticed my refurbished device was defective (sound, panning & it will not recognize a sim card). I call them back and was told I needed to go to a T-Mobile store and do a warranty exchange which I did. After waiting a week and nothing from anybody I called them back. They told me it was sent to the store so I drive to the store and NOTHING.

    The clerk at the store told me I needed to contact the insurance company which I did and was transferred to the warranty department where I received a message I can only deal with them through US mail. Hmmm, so I call back a fourth time and was told they would email me a label to ship the defective device back. Well the next day I checked, NO LABEL. I called and was told I had to wait 24 hrs for the label. Now it's well past the 24 hr mark and still no label. The last call I did and will make to them did absolutely nothing.

    The experience I have had with Assurant has been nothing but a headache. Filed a claim, once it was approved the process was fast, next day shipping. Sadly, That was the only great thing about the experience so far. I received my refurbished device, which I had no problem with I’m already aware there is a 50/50 chance of receiving a new one. Immediately upon activation I noticed the device was defective having audio issues I couldn’t hear even though the volume was up. & as well people have been stating that they having been calling me and I have not received not one call. Not even a missed call. So I tried to give the phone a few days thinking maybe it just needs a few days to adjust. But then I kept getting messages saying people were trying to reach me.

    I called 9 days after having the phone and the lady said that she couldn’t send another replacement because there was a 7 day police and she cold transferred me to Apple and told me I had a warranty with them. That lady was no help to me at all and only wanted to get me off her line. The issue had nothing to do with apple. So the senior advisor at Apple called Assurant back and stayed on the line with me for over an hour to make sure that they will be sending me another device. Long story short they will be sending me another phone on Monday and if it is defective I will be back here Tuesday with another review. It’s very frustrating to be paying for a service to be covered in case of emergencies and you’re not even guaranteed or properly able to use that service.

They started claim process and even I told rep I had an unlocked device she could only process ATT device as initially at policy start it is ATT device. Now ATT is not unlocking device, Assurant is not sending a like to like device. I am left with a device I can't use. I won't recommend it to anyone.

The Apple representative tried multiple time to transfer me to Assurant and it kept rerouting us to Apple. There is no option to speak with a representative either. Once I was finally able to put in a request for a new phone, it came quickly and was quite easy however your automated system needs a major overhaul. Better yet...

    I cracked my phone screen and attempted to replace it. I tried to file a claim online, but was told to call. What followed was 5 hours of bouncing between Assurant, Apple and T-Mobile trying to get information. I was told I had coverage which I didn't; told my coverage was with another company, told they'd rebooted the system and I'd have to wait half an hour (or hour).

    Finally one tenacious T-Mobile rep stayed on the line with me and grilled the Assurant rep until they admitted the problem was in their computers, just for my account, and their IT department would work over the weekend to fix it (this was a Friday). I called back Saturday. It took me multiple tries to find someone who understood the situation. They told me their IT department never works on the weekend. When the problem was finally fixed the exchange went smoothly, but the refurbished replacement phone has trouble with freezing and is slower than the one it replaced. I immediately dropped my Assurant coverage through T-Mobile and will only buy protection directly from Apple.

So I has to go back to the store and talk to them again. Then call again. They told me I would get my replacement in 1 to 2 days.. I waited until about 5 o'clock on the 3 day. Still no phone.

    I am happy with the customer service and the price of my deductible but I think that when I filed a claim a few months ago they gave me a refurbished phone... I had my new phone by the pool and water got in the camera. Samsung Note 8 phones are supposed to be water resistant up to three feet for up to 30 minutes. I didn't even come close to challenging this feature and somehow water got in my phone and into the camera. I think the phone that I had only had for a couple of months was refurbished and the factory seal was improperly replaced. So I had to file another claim shortly after the first claim and then put this phone in a bulky waterproof case.

    I have been paying Assurant for over a year for my iPhone 7 device through T-Mobile. About 3 weeks ago, the phone's audio stopped functioning. According to my contract, "mechanical failures" should be replaced by Assurant with $0 deductible. Over the course of 5 phone calls and about 4 hours of time (3 of which were Assurant agents arguing with T-Mobile agents for T-Mobile to replace the phone instead of themselves while I was on the line) I was repeatedly told Assurant would not honor my $0 deductible situation. Instead, multiple Assurant agents tried to convince me they were doing me a 'favor' by falsifying my claim to 'accidental damage' and only charging me a $95 deductible.

    It was only after a final 1.5 hour customer service call, escalating to manager after manager while threatening a lawsuit did they finally agree to replace my device as was originally agreed upon when I signed up. Due to the utter dishonesty and poor customer service I received, I believe that Assurant is acting in an immoral and dishonest practice towards customers. Although I cannot confirm, I must assume that they are taking advantage of other customers out there without their knowledge, as is what almost happened to myself. Please beware of this organization and how they treat customers.

    I had purchased Assurant Insurance coverage for my daughter's iPhone 6. When her phone was stolen, we submitted an insurance claim. We were pleased with the relative ease in which the claim was processed and a replacement phone received. We did have to pay a $175 (deductible?) at the time of the claim, but that seemed reasonable. However, that was 4 months ago, and now the replacement phone has died. The Apple store told us it was a hardware problem that cannot be fixed. When we contacted Assurant, we were informed that the warranty period on the replacement phone was only 90 days. So now I realize that I paid $175 (in addition to the monthly insurance premiums) for a refurbished piece of junk that only lasted 4 months. Lesson learned.

When I talked to the customer service, they said that they did not have the information about my claim being declined. Assurant wanted me to mail the corporate office which is all the way to Pennsylvania just to know why my claim was denied or what information they wanted from me.

But when they directed me to Apple to check - they saw it was off. Whether this is accurate or not I don't know, but it's NOT right or fair that I should be rejected a replacement especially when there is not enough education or notification going out informing people to make sure this is on, otherwise they won't qualify for a replacement phone - that's just shady.

    On 06.06.19 at approximately 6:15 p.m., I placed a claim (recorded conversation should be on file with Assurant because they said they were recording me when I placed call for the claim). I placed my claim as I normally would and gave all of the necessary information and paid deductible. When I say all necessary information, I mean last four of social, billing / shipping address, contact phone, and email. We did not receive the phone on Saturday, and we thought, "No big deal, we should get it on Monday."

    Monday came and went and no phone so we checked for status and it said that they were missing information so they could ship. My husband contacted them to find out what information was missing and the information was the same information that I gave on the day I made my claim, again Assurant should have the recorded conversation. Then they told my husband that our phone was on back order and we would have to wait an additional 3-5 business days to receive the phone. Meanwhile, I am without a phone. Now here is the problem:

    Terms and conditions state: Subject to the terms and conditions in your coverage documents, your coverage provides for a replacement wireless devise which may be, at our option, refurbished equipment or different equipment of like kind and quality and any covered accessories as defined in your coverage documents. Your approved claim is subject to a non-refundable service fee/deductible based on your equipment type as defined in your coverage documents.

    They did not honor their part of the claim. I am now calling back my carrier T-Mobile if they will make this right and offer me a free phone of equal value. I am not requesting a phone of greater value just equal value. I have been a loyal customer to T-Mobile and to my calculations, I have paid over $7,520 for the 5 phones i have on my plan for 2 years and 8 months. If T-Mobile will not make this right, then I will have to take my business somewhere else.

    Also, I need to mention that when I asked to speak to someone higher up with than a manager (Assurant), I was told that I would have to write the company because they did not have a phone number for me to contact someone higher that could offer me a comparable devise.

    REALLY disappointed in the attitude as well as the poor communication of policies. I have up until now NEVER submitted a claim. An insurance company's dream customer. I had to submit a claim expecting a phone like the one damaged to replace my phone. I noticed the phone they were replacing was a different color. The rep at Assurant said many people called, surprised to hear that which tells me they aren't communicating it very well (I wouldn't have bought their insurance had I known). They can send you ANY COLOR of phone as a replacement for your phone. Hope you like pink because it might be yours. Then, when you point it out you are treated as if they are doing you a favor. Crap company. I used to work in that field as an Operations Manager. The employee I talked to would not have worked for me.

    Filed a claim for water damage to my phone. After waiting for an email response that I never received, I went on their website only to find that my claim was not covered. No explanation as to why, but if the insurance does not cover a damaged device, then what am I paying for??? I've seen plenty of reviews on here of others getting their damaged devices replaced, so wondering what makes my claim different? Looking to at LEAST drop their coverage, if not switch providers to one who offers actual insurance for damaged devices. I also didn't feel very comfortable with the fact that the rep I spoke to couldn't transfer me to their auto payment system for the deductible, and took all my credit card info verbally, himself.

    This year mine and my brother's phones have had broken screens, so I called Assurant to replace my phones and both times they sent me defective phones. Which wasted more time but T-Mobile warranty deed and also cost more money because I had to pay for the warranty myself. I do not like Assurant. I wish there was another route.

    I used the insurance to replace my son's broken glass on his Note. After they sent a replacement, I sent the damaged phone back in the return envelope they provide. Apparently the tracking number that is provided means absolutely nothing and they claim they didn't receive it. Now I have to pay for the phone along with the deductible. This is the second time this has happened to me. Last time, after a few weeks, they magically found the phone and I had to fight with them to get my money back in a timely manner. It's a rip off and I have heard this happen to others as well. Don't send a return envelope with a worthless tracking number!

I called them about the problem and the representative just kept telling me "it's a comparable device". I asked how it was a comparable device. They said,"I don't know it just is". They also said they did not have my phone in stock and that's why they substituted it. I asked if they would be restocking my model, and once again they said they didn't know.

    Original Review: June 7, 2019

    On 06/03/2019 I was approved per the email from Assurant for a replacement phone, the same phone that I pay insurance on, the Samsung Note 5, the LED screen cracked - then on 06/04/2019 I received a lesser phone in lieu of the Note 5 phone that I paid for. I immediately called them and I received excuses, no accountability and not willing to correct the error. They also said I had to send the S8 back before they would send the "correct" phone to me. So I had to pay extra shipping with tracking to get it there, the soonest by 06/07 to avoid waiting a week. I have reached out to BBB - I received a voice mail message today, in response to the BBB complaint, yet I called back and cannot reach the assigned case mgr. This now is the only ONE person that I have to wait for, per the rep to connect with to help me at this point after 6 phone calls and 3 emails, and now 3 days without a workable Note 5 phone. Thanks to Assurant.

    They took my $149 easily and now are holding me "hostage" as I am here without the Note 5 compatible with S-Pen, replacement phone. They sent me an email telling me that I had to provide a letter from my employer to "vouch" that I need this type of phone, when I am self employed in addition to 2 other positions I carry. My integrity is not the one in question here. I truly feel they they are trying to drive me to throw my hands up...and they figure that I will eventually just accept a lesser phone. They also asked me on more than one occasion, once was not enough, what other phone would I accept. I replied the same each time, either the Note 5, 8 or 9. I doubt that CEO Alan Colberg would accept a lesser value/model phone. If anyone else has had this experience, please let me know.

    It is clear to me after wasting so much of my valuable time, their core values lack regard for me, my business and or my customers - it appears that they are more concerned with their own conveniences and or making money off my back. There is NO other explanation. An attorney friend of mine once said, "If it does not make sense to you, it is making someone ELSE cents". PS I was told several times by Assurant that they did not have the Note 5 phone available in the warehouse at the time, however they could not tell me what Note phones they did have in their warehouse. The run around. I am keeping track of the money I am losing daily, thanks to Assurant. Who will pay for this? All could have been avoided by simply sending me the same Note 5, or an 8 or 9 whatever was truly available in their warehouse, that is the bottom line.

    I guarantee you that they have a Note 5, 8 or 9 phone in their warehouse. #2 when I made Assurant aware of the error, they could have then cleaned this up and overnight-ed the correct Note 5, 8 or 9, and Assurant still chose not to. Instead Assurant choose to put me under more duress. Still without a phone. Is it the principle and integrity that will prevail? Or is it Assurant's money and misappropriated power? Make me wrong...please! Per Assurant's website: Will the replacement device be exactly the same make and model as my original device? Your device will be replaced with a reconditioned one of like kind and quality. In the event a reconditioned device is not available, we will replace it with a new model of like kind and quality. Device color may vary depending on availability.

    The $100 fee was supposed to insure the phone would be received the next day. It took ten days, quite a few phone calls, and visits to T-mobile, to find that the scratched, used phone with bad audio was on backorder.

    I paid insurance on for my phone bill for over three years. When my phone was accidentally destroyed beyond repair, I filed a claim through Assurant. They took my information and approved my claim in just a few minutes. They told me my phone would be sent to me via overnight shipping within twenty-four hours. However, it has been three days since then and I still don't have a phone. When I called to ask why, the agent told me she would have to check into it with the warehouse and that my file would be updated when the phone actually shipped. I was told I would receive an email and that I could also follow the progress of my claim online.

    Well, I never received an email, my account has not been updated online and I still don't have a phone! I paid a total of $230 (including my deductible) for insurance that refuses to replace my phone. I could have just not paid the insurance money and gone to the store and bought a newer, better phone for just a few dollars more. Even if I paid a lot more, I would only have gone without a phone for one day, rather than the week it's taken Assurant to make good on their promise. This company is nothing but a shady rip-off. Just save your money and, when your phone breaks, gets lost or is damaged, go buy a new one.

    Dropped and cracked my Galaxy S10 Plus yesterday (June 5th, 2019). Immediately filed a claim using the website. Didn't receive an email saying that my claim was received. Checked the website this morning (June 6th, 2019) and it said that my claim was denied but gave me no explanation as to why. I called. The lady that answered was really nice in handling the situation but in the end she said she couldn't see why they denied my claim and that I'd have to write a letter to their corporate office. Why? What kind of crap is this? I've been paying Premium device protection for the 6 years I've been with T-Mobile.

    When I dropped my Nexus 6 back in 2015, I filed a claim, it was instantly approved and I had my new device the next day. Why is this so hard this time? Why should I have to write a freaking letter? I am 100% covered for this, on the T-Mobile site itself it says I'm covered under accidental damage. Accidental damage is definitely dropping a phone. Reading other reviews, I didn't want to believe them because of my positive experience back in 2015... But it seems like this company has changed their business practices since then. I'll update my review if the situation changes.

I damaged my phone and filed a claim paid a deductible to get another phone. Refurbished phone and defective. First night calls were being dropped, keyboard was not working. I would try to open my apps such as my bank acct and I couldn’t because keyboard was typing a different number or letter. Called Assurant the very next day which was a Saturday and explained all the issues I was having and that I was leaving on vacation that Monday. Asked if I could have another phone expedited that day to another store or home so I could have a working phone on my trip. They know the best they can do because it was the weekend was to ship another phone on Tuesday. However I would not be here and not have working phone on my trip. For the inconvenience they discounted my bill 20 dollars!!

    On my vacation I was unable to open apps such as my bank, Pandora to play my music, my Twitter just everything in general. It was horrible and very frustrating!! I would not recommend this insurance to anyone. In fact I called T-Mobile and suggested to them get rid of them or will lose customers. It gets better. I came back and went to pick up the second refurbished phone and told now the one they shipped out I couldn’t get because some serial number on the phone was switched on the new order. They wanted me to wait till Thursday for another phone so basically I would be without a working phone for another week. Finally a T-Mobile rep suggested I upgrade to get a new phone since I eligible. I had to pay another 75.00! Not happy customer and again will NOT recommend anyone to get this insurance.

Claim was denied, reason, the phone number associated with the actual phone as moved to another phone. So I own several phones, if I move the SIM on another phone the coverage is no longer valid. So basically they keep on charging you but deny a claim. So they basically insure a SIM card and not the actual device, got to be the most stupid thing I have seen with phone insurance.

    My phone broke, and I called Max Assurant Plus. They sent a replacement right away and were very pleasant. Before even receiving the device, I received an e-mail that they had not received my device back and a reminder that I would be charged if it wasn't received. I called back and was assured that I would have 15 days once received before any charges were made as per the contract. I had trouble making arrangements to return through UPS because of my location but had made arrangements for it to be returned to UPS by a friend travelling to a larger city on day 14.

    On day 12, the company attempted to charge my credit card triggering a fraud alert on my card. I called and was told that it is an automated charge, and there is no way to stop them from continuing to try to charge my card PRIOR to the 15-day mark. I asked to speak to a manager or someone else who has the ability to override the system at least until day 15, and I was advised that it would take up to 2 business days to hear back.

    My iPhone was not charging anymore and the ear speaker was very difficult to hear from so I made a claim with T-Mobile and Assurant. The replacement phone showed up two days later however, there had been lots of rain and the shipping box damaged so was the return label. So I checked to see the replacement phone was ok and it was. I then proceeded to buy a box at my local post office and used the shipping label provided by Assurant on their website.

    Today I received a letter that my damaged phone has not been received and that if it’s not returned I will be charged for the replacement device. When I called to Assurant customer service I was told that their warehouse has not received my device and that I will be charged if I don’t return my old phone. Of course I don’t have that phone anymore as it was shipped on 5/16/2019. Assurant has the worst return labels ever and do a poor job in providing good return labels that can be tracked.

Well, I received an email yesterday (June 2, 2019) afternoon indicating my device has shipped along with a tracking number. I checked the tracking status and lo and behold ...UPS doesn't have the package. I called this morning to verify the shipping and the automatic system stated, "My device was shipped on June 2, 2019. Have you received it yet?" What is going on?!

A few hours later I reached back out to UPS and still NO update. I contacted Assurant and now I am being told, "Yes, your package was shipped yesterday and UPS has it at the warehouse and didn't scan it yet". I don't do lies and games especially when it comes to a simple process everyone is familiar with. If you have my $249 payment then please send me my device! I only had this phone a few months.

    I was told the replacement would be here on Tuesday but it didn’t arrive. I had to call to find out it was on back order. Nobody reached out. I had to buy a cheap phone for vacation leaving the next day. It arrived while we were gone and it is purple! For a guy! Not the color we are paying for.

    Such a frustrating process. I filed my claim online and thought everything was handled. I was keeping an eye on my email for some sort of communication from them but after 24 hrs of nothing I logged back in to check on things. Not even 4 hrs after I filed the claim they updated the status to documentation needed but never bothered to communicate that to anyone. I called and was told I needed to upload page one of my bill, they didn't know why I needed to provide that but just that I had to provide it. So I logged into my T-Mobile account, downloaded the bill, saved page 1, and uploaded it to their site. And waited. Another 24 hours with no communication, so I logged in to my claim to check. The document was rejected, I couldn't believe it, I followed their instructions.

    So once again I called, and was told that the document had to have the name of the account holder and the account number. I am the damn account holder. Finally got the claim processed and received the replacement device, but what a horrible customer service experience. Never in my life have I felt so meaningless as a consumer, because of the way Assurant and their employees handled my business and my concerns when I brought them to their attention. I spoke with a supervisor who seemed to care less about my problems than the previous rep did. I will be researching what other options I have for phone insurance because they do not deserve to have my money.

    I filed a claim on a Wednesday afternoon for my Galaxy s8 plus that was not dropped, nor wet or stolen but yet seemed to go black under the glass. I filed this claim in the early afternoon so I'd have it approved & sent to me with 24 hr shipping, hoping to receive it by that Thursday or even possible that Friday. The guy that took my claim was AMAZING! Extremely helpful and very nice... But with every passing day that I never received an approved email confirmation I called.

    I spoke to 3 service reps everyday for the following 4 days to call that Saturday and finally get another awesome service rep that told me my claim should have went thru within 24 hrs and I found myself wondering... If I called and spoke to 3 reps for 3 days since my claim was filed, why did none of the reps before her tell me this... At this point I was extremely angry. I sent emails to customer service stating the kind of poor review I'd be leaving and still I've never heard back from someone. It's extremely unacceptable for me to be paying for my insurance as well as my replacement phone to go with out a phone for a week and these people are fully aware of that.

    So needless to say it took A WEEK to file my claim, get it reviewed, approved and shipped overnight. I pray the next time my phone breaks and I need a replacement, I pay for, I hope the air conditioning in my home hadn't broke nor do I need to have my car towed for a dead battery from the alternator & a cracked radiator. Cause these were the exact issues I was trying to deal with. Without my phone as a single mom being 8 months pregnant. If I could leave less than 1 star on my review I would. I sure hope one of you has much, much better luck with these people than I did.

    This was my first time ever losing my phone and having to enforce my insurance policy with my cell phone provider so I was not too sure what to expect, but after everything was said and done, I am extremely happy with the results. My original Samsung phone cost me over $500.00 and once I contacted my insurance's customer service, they informed me that I only needed to pay $99.00, which would include a brand new phone, not a refurbished phone, new headphones, a new fast-charger and the best part, they will ship the phone overnight so I will receive my new items the next day. This all sounded too good to be true, but sure enough, everything Assurant said they were going to do, they did, which I appreciate and respect very much.

    I put in a claim for a stolen phone. An hour later I received an email that it was approved. Immediately I noticed it was submitted on the wrong phone number on the account, their mistake. I called immediately to have it corrected. Mind you this is within an hour of submitting the claim. I was told they could not correct the claim and that I'd have to wait until I received the phone and refuse shipment and that they could not submit the correct claim until they received the phone back, inventoried it and refunded my money which I was told could take up to 10 days. I talked to supervisors and was told there was nothing they could do and basically I was screwed. I refused shipment of the phone and a week later I called and was told they had received the phone and had to inventory it. Not even 10 mins later the same phone showed up on my door. UPS never sent it back. Mind you. This is a week later.

    So I call back, get another story and was told I needed a shipment label, which was never told to me before. Meanwhile, I'm still without my phone and on top of that my watch won't work because it's associated with the phone. Sent the phone back and still waiting because the shipping label wasn't even over night, it was GROUND. This company has done nothing to help me out and make it THEIR mistake right!!! Still don't have my replacement. I will be writing their corporate offices. This is the worst business practice I've seen ever. All I keep being told is that their systems won't let them do anything. I personally don't care. I pay you money every month for insurance and to ensure I get a replacement in a timely matter. They better start looking at their "systems" and figure out how to take care of their customers. I've been hugely inconvenienced and am tired of them apologizing... Fix the issue!

    I had to speak with about 4 different reps to get my claim in and get my claim approved regarding a broken iPhone 6s plus I had accidentally broken. I submitted the claim and the following day I followed up where one person told me my phone would be on its way, however, sounded unsure so I called again. Second person told me my claim was denied because I didn't include the PLUS in my phone description and there was nothing else they could do to help me so they recommended me to go to T-Mobile to buy a whole brand new phone.

    Now I pay 15$ a month for about almost 8 years that I have had my service and typically they are ok with these situations, however, this time I was getting incorrect information left and right. I went to T-Mobile knowing that T-Mobile and Assurant company are two different things and there would not be much that they could do. I wasted yet again more of my time going to T-Mobile and had a great T-Mobile rep assist me in calling them and explaining that they had to resubmit my claim. This rep finally took his time to understand the situation and fixed my claim in under 10 minutes after speaking with another rep that hung up.

    After this whole mess was finished the only good thing I have to say is that I received my phone rather quickly the following day after the claim was approved. This was such a hassle. I am considering removing the insurance I have on my phone as I would not want to go through this again. It was very difficult to understand why they claimed there was nothing they could do to help me if there was an error in the claim. They rather just push you away and have you deal with it yourself.

    I dropped my phone and cracked the screen on my Pixel 2XL a few days ago. But my claim appears unable to proceed because I don't have the original purchase receipt?? I purchased the device two years ago from the Google store and honestly don't know where the receipt is. So I copied and pasted my digital receipt and order history and uploaded it to Assurant T-Mobile claim. But each time they seem to move the goal post by saying things like the receipt doesn't have a physical store address or the receipt is handwritten...Truly absurd and borderline scammy!

    I even spoke to a supervisor and after explaining my situation (some foreign guy I could barely understand) assured me he would rectify the problem within 24 hours. Well it's been 24 hours and my claim remains where it has been. Nothing's changed. I've been paying for php for over 10 years and this is the first time I've filed a claim.

    Original Review: May 31, 2019

    Very dishonest and unethical business practices. Made a claim for a damaged phone. Agent made three mistakes in our claim, resulting in multiple issues in claim being successful. Had to call every few days to correct their mistakes. Every "claim update" was assured that everything was now fine and replacement phone would be shipped "tomorrow". Claim rejected, agent-made error found, I re-correct it, rinse, repeat 3x. Asked SEVERAL times over SEVERAL CALLS over SEVERAL WEEKS if there was ANY further information that looked out of order or was resulting in my claim being rejected. They said, repeatedly, no everything was now fine.

    Suddenly, the day after 90 day claim window closed they told me damage date was recorded incorrectly and CONFIRMED they knew all along and also knew the correct date but wouldn't enter it until I told them. I corrected it with them immediately. They told me, "Thanks but your claim is permanently rejected because you are now past your 90 claim window as of yesterday." They lied, purposely suppressed information that would have resulted in a successful claim, and several agents put me on long holds and hung up on me when I asked to speak to a supervisor.

    Finally spoke to supervisor, who told me to write an appeal to corporate. I sent corporate a 3.5 page letter complete with claim numbers, facts, dates and times of my NINE phone calls to their company. Got NO RESPONSE. They simply do. not. care. 16 years of being a customer, doing claims with them over the nearly 2 decades long span of being a cell phone owner and they could not care any less. I get not even a return letter, no phone call, no email, nothing. It is in all likelihood that no one even read the d*mn letter.

    I was walking down a wet set of stairs with my phone in my back pocket. One slip and my phone was done. First time ever needing to file an insurance claim, but that's why I have been paying for all of these years, right? Should be easy. Filing the claim was standard, but they sent me a replacement phone that can't function in the same capacity for work, as my original phone. I NEED the pen capability. This is where the hassle grew even worse. Arguing your way through customer service is no way to do things. They just made it a horrible experience. The only way I made headway, was by getting my carrier involved in the process. Suddenly, "sorry, our mistake. We'll take care of you." After a few days without update, "sorry we have no record of that conversation. We can't honor that promise." They backed out of their promise and the process was started all over again.

    After talking with countless people, hours wasted, and missed business phone calls, I had to go to my carrier and buy a phone for temporary use. It took 15 days for them to get me a suitable replacement. The phone is 4 series old, but it will do the job. I learned my lesson. I don't need insurance on my phone. I spent over $500 over the years on insurance coverage, thinking I will get a like replacement when my phone breaks. You know, the newest on the market, just like mine when I insured it. Nope. At the time of replacement, the one they gave me can be bought for $200. I'm in the hole $300+ and immeasurable frustration from dealing with a horrible company. No insurance from here on out, I'll just buy my own phone when the time comes. If I could give them 0 stars, I would, they have more than earned it.

    I had the worst experience with the insurance company and T-Mobile too. I lost my phone and did the claim for the new phone, iPhone 8 plus. The phone came rather quickly. The only problem was it was not working. Speakers and microphone was totally damaged. I could not hear or speak. Well that means the phone was useless. Plus, the phone made constant static noises while NOT in use.

    Anyways, I called T-Mobile, the reps gave me hard time, they told me to go to one of the T-Mobile stores and they would assist me. I called one of the stores and the guy actually made fun of me on the phone, saying there is no way he would be able to assist me with this issue. So, I went to the Apple store, where my issue was handled very professionally. The rep did diagnosis and the phone had multiple issues. To be exact 7 different issues, so they provided me brand new phone. This means, after paying over 1000 dollars in my phone (retail price + 250 deductible + Apple Care Plus monthly payment) I ended up with refurbished phone that was broken. Nobody even did the diagnosis before mailing me the phone? Very frustrating and annoying. Regret every minute I decided to have business with you.

    Cracked the screen on my Galaxy S9 and submitted a claim. Received the replacement device fast enough and returned my broken phone. A month later I'm being charged a non-return fee because the IMEI number they received wasn't the one they were expecting. However, the device I sent them was the exact same device I walked out of T-Mobile with. I didn't trade somebody, or find a broken one to send in. I didn't accidentally send somebody else's phone. This phone went from store to me to Assurant, and they are claiming it's not the phone I should have.

    The funny thing is the two IMEI numbers (both what they expected and what they received) are identical save for one trans juxtaposed 5 which was moved to the end of the number. So, that's one hell of a coincidence that I found/traded/mistakenly sent in the wrong phone. Instead of admitting that, "Wow, okay, that's weird," they insist that their system of scanning is infallible. It might have something to do with the fact that all their customer service agents read from a script and aren't allowed to think for themselves.

    When I asked where the device they received is now, they said it had been refurbished and sent back out! What kind of business receives a device they say they shouldn't have received, then fixes it up and sells it back, and then charges the original customer for not returning the "proper phone"??? So they got my deductible, a phone, AND they still want to charge me 360 dollars? This business is a huge scam, and I would be curious to see if this has happened to anybody else, because I have a feeling they're going to face a class action suit at some point.

Unfortunately while going through the metro turnstiles, for a brief moment and lapse in judgement, I placed my phone in my back pocket making my way through the gates. Just like that my phone was picked from my pocket. Three weeks prior, I just purchased the Samsung Galaxy S10+.

    Needless to say, I was able to get in contact with Assurant via the website. After filling out the online claim form, two days later, my replacement phone arrived at my home. Unfortunately, I was still on vacation for five more days before I can play with my new toy. I am very pleased with the service I received and the prompt replacement of my phone. The only thing is that the phone I lost was the blue S10+ and it was replaced with the black phone. Thanks Assurant for making the experience a less stressful one.

    I received the replacement very shortly, and the new phone was fine (looks new but with some scratches on the screen), also I complained about charging and I haven't received a charger replacement at all. But I must admit: the customer service representative was super nice to me and super at any other conversational topics! It was a real pleasure to talk to the person, I'm just not happy that I haven't received accessory to the phone, and phone was scratched. But I can understand that's not the talking person's issue... it's an issue of the doing person. Anyway, I really appreciate the replacement even I've paid for it partially. (I think it kills the feeling of being secured/insured.) But who cares about feelings when corporate office needs to provide high efficiency. :-) Thank you anyway... and your representatives are really great!

    I filed a claim simple and easy. Paid my deductible, I promptly received my replacement phone. Replacement phone had all kinds of software issues. Nothing would load and constantly restarted on its own, I called And was told that my phone was still under warranty and I could send it back. I was instructed that once I put the phone in the mail and the label was scanned by FedEx that I should call and they would send me my 2nd replacement phone. As per instruction I called. Spoke with a representative who confirmed my replacement phone was in transit back to them and they could have my new phone over nighted, She then explained to me that I would receive a tracking number via email so that I could keep track of the 2nd phone replacement.

    The following day I had not received a tracking number yet I proceeded to a live chat with one of their representatives, She provided me with a tracking number and told me my new phone was on its way. However after our chat had ended the following morning I checked the tracking number that she gave me and it was only the number 4 the phone I sent back to them not my replacement. So again I waited one more day in hopes my phone would show up and it did not.

    I called back in spoke with a representative who then informed me that my new replacement phone was eligible to now be shipped not already on its way. Now being it was after 8:30 p.m. I would not be eligible for next day shipping to receive my phone on Friday. Instead I would have to wait until Tuesday of the following week to receive my phone. I have spoken with a supervisor. Also had a callback from a manager and there was nothing they would do for me. They basically told me, "Oh well. We're sorry." If I could give you 0 stars I would.

    I lost my phone and I called Assurant to find out how to get it replaced and how much it would cost. I was kind of freaked out and I've never gone through this kind of process before, so I didn't know what to expect and maybe I wasn't in the best mental state at the time. The rep was understanding and genuinely engaged with me on the phone. He wasn't one of these people who you can tell is just there to read a script and give you a transparently uncaring customer service experience.

    He calmed me down and assisted me very efficiently and gave me all the important info I needed to know. I didn't know how much it would be and it was a little more than I was prepared for (because I wasn't prepared lol) but he was kind enough to just set up the claim and give me a number so that I could pay my deductible the next day. He even told me when I needed to file my claim by in order to receive my replacement phone within 24 hours. Without an expedited shipping fee.

    The device arrived on time and sending my old device back was easy and painless. Talking to the customer service representative was painful. He seems to have problems understanding English and would ask me to repeat my information several times. I can be patient but, I almost lost my cool when this representative seems incapable of changing my delivery address. Although he could perfectly read my home address, when asked to switch the delivery address, using the same address format, he just could not understand how or why do the address change. Eventually, I had to give up on trying to change my delivery address, yet he asked again a few minutes later if I want my device delivered somewhere else. Very infuriating.

    Though the claims process was actually very quick and easy with Assurant, from the completion of the claim to the speedy delivery of the replacement device, the replacement device I received was immediately faulty. I had not even used the device for 2 hours when it started to glitch as if I was repeatedly tapping and swiping at the top of the screen. When sending messages, taking photos, and browsing web pages, apps will close or open new windows sporadically making my phone a much less reliable and useful tool to use at home and especially at work.

    I was very disappointed about this because with the previous insurance provider used by T-Mobile (Asurion), even the reconditioned devices I received worked like new and lasted me several years. This experience has raised doubts in me about the quality assurance practices at Assurant because after reading other reviews, it seems that this is not an isolated incident. I would not recommend Assurant to someone in the market for phone insurance.

    I have used this company several time, each successive time with a phone that works worse and worse than the original product I paid nearly $1000 for. Obviously they're all refurbished phones, which no one cares to mention when you sign up for insurance. AND they're hard to get a hold of, which btw how are you supposed to call and be called when you're calling about your broken phone?!? Don't they know how to operate an email account?

    Anyways, this time I called, found out my phone had been discontinued (HTC) and that the ONLY comparable product in their ENTIRE warehouse was a Samsung. I asked to speak to a supervisor when the employee on the phone told me it was impossible to get any other phone. The supervisor assured me that I could have a different brand, he asked for 3 acceptable alternatives, I provided them, and he said he would follow up with a phone call in 24-48 hours and would tell me which phone I would be getting.

    Someone called within 48 hours and told me to fill out an authorization form. I asked what phone I would be getting, he said a Samsung, I said no...and then I asked to speak to a supervisor. He told me that he saw in my file that I had asked for a supervisor before and that he saw how the request had gone through and they had come back with a different (and even crappier) Samsung phone. I said, "NO. I asked for ANYTHING other than a Samsung." He assured me that all that was holding me up getting a different phone was signing that form and then they'd approve the different form. So I asked, "Were you lying then when you said that the request had gone through and came back with a different Samsung?" (No answer to that)

    So I asked to speak with a supervisor again and he told me that he'd have a supervisor call me, and to just fill out the form because it was holding things up. I asked him what would stop the next person from sending me a Samsung? He assured me they would not! So I fill out the form and the next day I see online that they are sending me a Samsung. I use direct chat and explain what happened. They say, "Sorry. There's nothing I can do. Your phone has already shipped." So I called and asked to speak with a supervisor. I called THREE TIMES and was dropped or hung up on before I FINALLY spoke with a supervisor. She told me that the system was wrong, that they weren't sending me a Samsung, and that I would be getting one of the 3 devices I had requested and someone would call to confirm. I said thanks very much and goodbye.

    The next day, what do you know? A Samsung shows up at my house...I call AGAIN and ask to speak with a supervisor. The first time I'm put on hold for 10 minutes before I hang up and call again. The next time I call and demand to speak to a supervisor and when I finally do, I am informed that I had not provided a legitimate reason for not wanting a Samsung and therefore, despite having been lied to and given the ultimate run around, there was nothing they could do or were willing to do to give me a phone that was not a Samsung-thanks very much and have a good day. They were so very polite throughout the whole thing...Painfully and uselessly polite.

    UPDATE-I was contacted by a Claims Resolution representative. A replacement phone was expedited to me and assurance the employees involved would receive instruction on the proper way to process claims entered erroneously so as to prevent this from happening to someone else.

    Original Review: May 21, 2019

    I filed a claim due to my phone being dropped into the lake which I told the representative several times when I called. Even provided alternate phone number to reach me at since that number was at the bottom of the lake. Once transferred to the deductible payment department, I explained what happened again. Again gave an alternate phone number when asked if they could reach me at the old number, because that phone was at the bottom of the lake. When going online to check the delivery date of my replacement phone I discovered my claim details indicated I needed to mail back the damaged phone within 10 days.

    I called customer service to inquire about this. I was informed my claim was filed as "damaged device" by their representative. I assured the new customer service representative there was no way to misunderstand my reason for filing a claim. She informed me I would have to return the new phone that was in route. Once that phone was processed back into their facility (3-5 business days), I would be issued a refund of my deductible (could take up to 10 more business days) then I would have to file a new claim for a "lost phone" and repay the deductible they were refunding me from the first claim.

    If I failed to send back the replacement phone, I would be charged $800 because the claim indicated my old phone was damaged rather than lost. I spoke with a supervisor who said she could not do anything but she was sorry this has happened. She assured me there was no way to correct the claim or override it in their system to prevent this outrageous delay that was no fault of mine. Due to the fact the Claims Representative erroneously entered my claim as "damaged device" rather than "lost device" I am going to be without a phone for possibly up to two weeks. "Sorry this happened" isn't an acceptable resolution when their employee's error causes me to be without a phone for possibly two weeks!

    My iPhone new 10 was stolen so I was super happy I had insurance on it. I made a claim, and paid the $280 for a new phone. After weeks of still not having my phone I called Assurant to find out what was going on, they gave a tracking number and said it was already delivered weeks ago. Come to find out it had been delivered to a back old basement door that is no longer in use so had sat out in the cold freezing temperatures for two weeks (mail carriers fault at this point). Immediately my phone’s ding was weird and high pitched. In settings I realized it was a refurbished phone but the rest of it seem to be working fine, I had already been without for at least a month now.

    Slowly I’ve noticed condensation building in my phone's camera, I called Assurant and explained what was going on, the woman stated that even having your phone in your pocket if you sweating could lead to condensation I couldn’t believe it! I asked to speak to a supervisor, he said I was outside my 90 day warranty by 5 days, I asked how this was possible and it’s because they begin time the day mail deliverers. No signature confirmation, no notation that I called because I still hadn’t received my phone, no verifying that my phone wasn’t even activated until weeks after it was “delivered”.

    I spoke to the manager who repeated the same things, the manager went a step further in saying it didn’t matter even if they did notate I didn’t receive my phone and that it sat outside in the winter because my 90 day time would have still started when the mail carrier dropped it off. (Mind you again I'm 5 days out of warranty) I could put in another claim and pay again for them to “fix” the phone but any condensation in the phone is immediately considered physical damage, the fact it sat outside in winter isn’t their fault, and having signature confirmation to ensure people receive their device could cause more issues than just leaving it.

    I’m blown away by how terrible their service is, I personally run a business and deal with customer service and warranties every day, never in my life would I recommend their service. It’s a huge disappointment that Xfinity decides to use them. Extremely unhelpful, the iPhone 10 is suppose to have high water resistance and the claim sweat can cause condensation/water damage. They're a joke.

    I purchased a phone through a company that provided Max Plus Assurance. My camera broke, so I called in and got a replacement device. Unfortunately when I got it the audio was not working and I could not speak on the phone. I returned it and they sent me a second replacement.. SAME PROBLEM. I have just received the third replacement phone and once again the audio is not working and people cannot hear me on the phone. THIS IS THE THIRD REPLACEMENT WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. The worst part is, after every replacement I’ve had to send back they have assured me that they will do more vigorous testing before dispatching the next one to ensure it is working properly.

    Clearly this was never done, though you would think having a working audio system is something they test routinely before sending out. Each time I have called there has also been no record of this request despite multiple staff claiming they’ll be sure to make note of it on the file. As a physician who is reliant on their phone and needs to be reachable while on call, this is beyond frustrating and has been a complete headache and waste of time. Please do yourself a favour and DO NOT buy insurance with this company or buy from a company that uses them. They are unable to deliver on their sole business.

    Original Review: May 16, 2019

    Costco sells this "Max Assurance Protection" insurance for cell phones. Unfortunately, I bought it and since I asked for replacement phone, they keep sending either a refurbished one which now has random working problem and then they sent me the unlocked AT&T which is not FIDO LTE compatible!!! They didn't replaced it since they say it's FIDO problem!!!! If I knew I would have so much hassle, wasting time with this company I would never have bought it. Now I have a refurbished phone, AT&T unlocked, not Fido LTE compatible (No Data anymore). Be careful with this company.

    I filed a claim April 2019. Paid $99 for a replacement phone which stopped working in less than 30 days. So now I have to go through my cell phone carrier & pay $5 warranty exchange fee and I really don't feel I should pay anything else. I call Assurant and told them my issue. The rep. rushed me off the phone because now this was a cell phone company issue. Very unhappy with this experience.

    I cracked the camera lens cover glass on my LG G6. Called Assurant to send me a replacement phone wich was done promptly. The phone arrived within 24 hrs but the replacement phone was defective. It doesn't charge properly and looses charge extremely quick. Was at 33% when I received it so I put it on to charge and by the time I transfered my data 1 hr maybe it was at 9%. Now I have to send back the phone, wait until they receive it, refund my deductible and call back to go through the whole process again. Not what I had in mind when that insurance was sold to me by the Costco salesman who told me they were a good company. Now I'm still stuck with a broken phone and do trust the company enough to try the process again.

    I have an iPhone 7. My phone battery was depleted so I wanted it replaced. They charged me the $88.48 replacement fee and they sent me my first replacement which had speaker and microphone problems (it kept glitching out when I was trying to speak to people and no one could hear, and it would make a loud sound every few seconds on my end while talking), the battery was also very depleted, so I spoke with them and they sent me a replacement.

    They sent me a second phone that that had a very bad speaker (everyone I spoke with said it sounded as though I was talking through a tube or from across the room, when in fact I had the phone up to my head. Even the people at Assurant Max Protection said it sounded very bad and they could barely hear me, one was rude enough to tell me that I needed to speak into the phone in a rude tone) so once again they sent me another replacement. I have just activated my third phone from them, this one has a depleted battery which was the problem with my original phone!

    They will not return my $88.48 replacement fee, which I find ridiculous after all the hassle just to get what seems like my original phone back! It seems like quite the scam to me, I will be going to Costco where I bought the original phone and the insurance and see what they have to say. Not to mention this is a phone for my business and I lost business because no one could hear when me they called and would hang up. I will never be purchasing this protection insurance from Assurant Max Protection again and I will be advising everyone I know of the poor service I received so they don’t waste their money.

Then this is probably more beef with T-Mobile and UPS - which someone should read THIS and fix; 2.) I had/have insurance but someone at T-Mobile (Cianna in VA) wiped that out in a keystroke when putting me into a Family plan and I was insured for 5 years - at 11-15 dollars a month = $900? Again more T-Mobile's fault - which perhaps someone from your end could've followed up on; 3.) and with UPS - being that you all do business with them, and if you're sending out something as important and as expensive as a phone (iPhone, to be specific) that it should be signed for, and not left in a customer's bushes - where it took me a day to search oh and THIS irked and still irks me; 4.) when emailing me about MY phone you don't even address ME (Cynthia) but someone else.

    My husband's phone wasn't working for him. We went to the store to get the insurance claim started. Paid the 100 deductible. Got the replacement next day. Replacement phone did not power on and it did not recognize the power cords. Called Assurant. The first person I spoke to kept telling me there was nothing they can do about it. That I needed to go back to the store to pay another 100 deductible. I specifically said I'm not paying another 100 for this. I already paid the 100. The guy I spoke to kept saying um uh um uh in everything he told me. Then he asked for the order number. I give it to him. He said he could not find it. Then tells me that I HAVE to go back to the store to pay the 100.

    For a replacement cell phone that was delivered already defective. It did not power on and did not recognize the power cords. So I ask for any supervisor. He puts me on hold for over 5 minutes to come back and say there is no one. Then he asked me if there was anything else he can assist with. I said again, "Yes your supervisor." He refused to get me to someone. Then he hung up on me. I call back and got someone who was able to do what I ask and was nice about it. But we get the second replacement. The second replacement worked and just needed to be activated. Which my husband had done the smart switch. Then I called to get it activated.

    The first gal I spoke to kept telling me the IMEI number was not in the system. Because ASSURANT DID NOT remove the first replacement IMEI number and they DID NOT ENTER the second one. So the first gal yells at me saying there was nothing she can do to get the cell phone activated. She had to escalate it to her help desk who can do it. But she also tells me that she can activate the phone with the IMEI number that is in the system already. But the problem is....THE IMEI NUMBER IN THE SYSTEM WAS FOR THE FIRST REPLACEMENT PHONE.

    THE ONE THAT DID NOT POWER ON AND DID NOT RESPOND TO A PHONE CHARGER. So if we activated the cell phone with that number it would not have been for the correct phone. So the lady got me to her help desk. The help desk tells me they cannot enter the IMEI number manually and they cannot find the IMEI number in the system for the correct phone. It's like this....WELL DUH YOU WON'T HAVE THE CORRECT IMEI NUMBER IN THE SYSTEM BECAUSE ASSURANT DID NOT PUT IT IN THE SYSTEM FOR THE CORRECT REPLACEMENT!!!!

    So I spent over 2 hours trying to get to a supervisor on the phone. The lady kept telling me that I've already escalated it to the highest. I said no I need a supervisor now. She said no one was available. I tell her, "Get me to one now because this is ridiculous. I have a cell phone your company sent me as a replacement and now it's a paper weight and you cannot do your job and activate this." I also tell her, "Fine. Get me to corporate." She transfers me to corporate and they are closed. She never once informs me they were closed.

    I call back. Get a very nice guy. He tells me that he got several calls from other customers that day about other phone agents not doing their jobs. That they could not or would not activate their phone. I ask, "Out of all those calls how many were you able to activate." He says he activated all of them. I spend less than one hour on the phone with him and he got my husband's second phone activated. Between Xfinity and Assurant Insurance customer service. I'm not sure who is worse. Between the two I've been told there is nothing they can do to help, I needed to pay another 100 deductible, refused a supervisor more than once, lied to and been refused assistance.

    So if I can give Assurant 0 stars on this very long review I definitely would. We pay the extra each month on time for the insurance. For this kind of service I am better off switching to a different cell carrier who goes through a different insurance company. Both places seriously lacked in their customer service and really needs to be retrained.

    I used Assurant for a phone replacement after accidentally breaking the screen on my 3 month old Samsung Galaxy Note 9. I'm usually very careful with my phones and take care of them. Filing a claim was easy and fast. I paid $99 for the replacement and $30 for 1 day shipping. I received the phone in 1 day as promised. After setting up the replacement phone (which is a refurbished phone) I noticed that the speaker was broken. Having the volume all the way up you could barely hear anything. This was the same for the ringer, calls, videos and music. This is the second time using this company and had this same problem with two different phones with two different phone carriers.

    It's sad that a company like this doesn't check to see if the phones are functioning correctly before sending them to customers! I called them and told what happened. They said they would send out a different one. I told them I didn't want another person's piece of junk and was sending the phone back. They said they will only refund the $99 and not the $30 for shipping. It's not my fault they sent a defective replacement. So now I'm having to pay $350 to replace my screen at cell phone repair store because I'm not wanting someone else broken phone and then I give them my 3 month old phone that functions fine besides the crack in the screen. I've lost respect and faith in this company. It's just a shame that most of the major cell phone carriers use this company.

    I placed a claim and paid the $99 deductible on April 30th, 2019, it was approved and phone shipped on May1st. The phone was received on May 2nd. Once I did a full reinstall, and saw the phone was working, I wiped the original phone and boxed it up and dropped it off. Later in the evening of May 2nd I realized I could only make calls on the replacement phone if I was connected via Bluetooth. The speaker button is grayed out and a call won’t connect at all directly from the handset. I spent SIX hours on the phone on Friday, off and on, between T-Mobile and Assurant. T-Mobile was as helpful as they could be. Assurant on the other hand said in order to replace the defective phone they sent, they would have to send me a label and the phone would have to show “In Transit” before they would send another one.

    That would be great except for the fact it leaves me with no phone until the replacement replacement phone arrives. My kids' schools need to be able to contact me as well as I need to be able to run my business. I even took my phone into an Apple store and they confirmed it was an internal issue BUT the device was out of warranty and it would cost me $349 plus tax to replace through Apple. For FIVE days I have been trying to get this resolved and Assurant has not been accommodating. Their process is horrible. You don’t have to wait to get my deductible payment, but I have to be without a phone until you see it in transit. Yet I see other people say once their phone showed in transit, they have waited days for another replacement. Smh. Horrible way to take care of your customers. If you can charge for the original phone not being back on time, you can charge if the replacement phone isn’t back on time.

They did charge me $49 for a replacement because of a tiny crack on the screen even though it was irrelevant to the issue and caused no problems. They said it would've been a free replacement without the crack. The next day while waiting for the new phone to arrive my battery crashed. Just stopped working and wouldn't take a charge.

    I lost my phone on April 16, 2019 and didn't receive a replacement until April 24, 2016. This was the worst experience of the entire time having my cell phone. The primary reason for having the insurance is to get a replacement when an emergency occurs. I don't understand why this took so long and no one was able to give me any type of reasonable excuse other than it was just their procedure and the claim was being processed. My reason for being upset is if the phone is lost, it's lost. Send another phone. My insurance is paid with my bill. I'm a businessman so I really suffered. The second problem was Xfinity Mobile couldn't even allow me to purchase another phone and append the same number in the interim. This is ridiculous and something should be done about it.

    I called Assurant because my phone broke and put in a claim. The claim was approved and they sent a replacement which was an upgrade. It took 1day for my replacement phone to come. I have been dealing with them for years never had a problem.

    So my daughter cracked her phone screen couple weeks ago. We did the insurance program aka Assurant, and paid to get a phone replacement sent out. Well the day we got the replacement phone it was working and we transferred all her old data to the new phone. The next day (last Friday), we sent the cracked phone in the envelope package provided. We watched the new Endgame, and on the way home, she complained that the screen stopped turning on. So I messed with it then it went like white pix-elated. Obviously something wrong with the screen hardware.

    So I called Assurant. They said, "We will send you a shipping label, and just turn the phone into a FedEx and once we see the package is in TRANSIT, we will ship out the new replacement." Okay now today WED I called to get a status. The rep said the device hasn't arrived yet. Correct but it shipped right? Yes but the warehouse physically needs to see the phone. He said usually they can just see that it's in transit and ship out the new replacement. For some reason they need to physically see the phone. He said it could take 3-7 days after they see it's been delivered to the warehouse! My issue is, I already sent the broken screen device back, which he said he sees, and now I have to wait even longer to get a new device because the replacement they sent me was defective? How does that make sense??? I need this issue solved.

    Everything was fine. However I did not appreciate getting charged the almost $700.00 fee for non return when the package was in your posession. I recommend tracking the package before processing a payment. I unfortunately did not realize the process of UPS shipping and didnt realize the extent I would have to go through to drop off a return package because I live rural - will also do my own diligence next time.

    I have a Samsung Note 9. Upon damage to the screen I filed a replacement claim. I daily communicated with Assurant to monitor the claim process due to a previous nightmare of an experience with the replacement of my iPhone 10 which took over a month to be replaced. The customer communication with Assurant SUCKS. I had to call to find out there was information that was needed as customer service does not email the customer to inform what is needed. As with my iPhone claim, after a week I have to get Headquarters involved to resolve my claim which took only 24 hours to be resolved. This should not be a means when a Supervisor should be able to get the same result.

    I have found that within the Assurant structure the right hand does not communicate with the left. I have always had Asurion and have never waited more than 72 hours to wait for a replacement. Because of my two nightmares of experiences with Assurant I have decided to terminate my service with Xfinity once my phones are paid in full and contract is over. Your service has no consideration for us as customers. This is a world that lives on it cellular communication and to be asked to wait more than a week for a claim settlement is absurd; especially when the claim is a damage claim which requires the damaged phone to be returned. Review your procedure and stop harming customers of those you are contracted to assist.

    Took protection for the iPhone purchased in Costco. A year after reported a Claim for a glass damage. Received a replacement phone, but it took a longer time to back up the phone data as iCloud backup was failing for the existing phone. Once, able to back the data with Apple support team, I was receiving an speaker issue with the replacement device and it took long time to isolate whether it’s a carrier or a Phone issue. I reported about this problem to customer Support. They advised it should be fine will not be charging a Non-return fee as it’s an issue you are encountering with the device we sent, in worst case if a charge has been placed will return it.

    At-last received a new phone as it was a device issue. I returned my actual phone with a glass damage and the replacement phone. I didn't received a non return fee for one of my phone. After my discussion with customer support they advised there is minor glitch in the system. They can see the phone has been received and will return the amount by last week. Today when I called a customer support, he said we could not revert the Non-Return fee. It was quite surprising to me. I have requested an escalation to executive. I am waiting a callback tomorrow.

    I understood that the replacement phone would be a refurbished model, but the speaker for making calls is inferior. People are always asking me to repeat myself, and I have to hold it right up to my mouth when on Bluetooth - so what's the point of Bluetooth? I had T-Mobile put a screen protector on as soon as we activated the phone, so now I've invested in protection, but it's a poor replacement.

    Assurant played me!! First of all they sent me through the trenches just to have my claims done properly. Then my 7 Edge wouldn't allow information to downloaded. So I took it to a T-Mobile store. I spent close to 2 months working with reps and still the replacement is garbage. Then on top of it all Assurant believes I should pay an additional 375.00 for a phone I paid for already. Smh. I'm over this while Assurant crap. And if T-Mobile can't find us a better insurer I'm leaving the T-Mobile brand!! I have been too faithful to be mistreated by a contracted entity.

    After dropping and shattering my cellphone, I called Assurant for phone replacement and received prompt, courteous service. The agent was very helpful. They overnight my replacement phone and I received it the next day with instructions on how to return the damaged phone. I mailed the damaged phone back to them the next day and received a courtesy text to let me know it had been received. I am very pleased with my experience with this company.

    I had to have 2 phones replaced at the same time. They came quickly, no problem there. I was having trouble transferring my data over on one of the phones. Called to say I was having trouble and I may not get it back in the 2 week timeframe. I was told, "No problem, send it back as soon as you can and if you do get charged the non-return fee, we will refund it." Returned both phones. Was charged 1 non-return fee. Phoned and was told, "Oh we're very sorry, that will be cleared up right away. We will refund the charge."

    2 weeks later, still not refunded. Phoned again. This time to be told, "Oh sorry, that's our policy." Excuse me? I phoned and advised of my problems and was told not to worry, any charges would be refunded. But on my 3rd phone call, I was told "too bad"...what a joke. Stealing my money and saying, "Too bad, nothing we can do." This is a scam. I haven't been able to talk to anyone higher than a "supervisor" to try and resolve this. Can't find any contact numbers on their website. No "dispute" department. Nothing. Nice business being run here.

    I dropped my phone in water and had to file a claim. I thought that it would take 24 hours to replace. I am now on day #8, apparently, my claim was "flagged". This means that after I sent in my paperwork (which I did immediately on day #1), that it had to be reviewed first in their system for 24 hours, and then sent to be reviewed again in another department for 3-5 business days. I need my phone to run my business and to stay in contact with my family as I am traveling. I asked to speak to a supervisor to see if we could expedite the process. The supervisor instructed me to email customer service through the website and ask them to please consider making it a priority instead of 3-5 days. I did, and I still have not heard from them.

    Meanwhile, I have called twice to check on it and make sure they didn't need anything from me since the "claim tracker" had not been updated on the website with the info that I sent. All they would say was that it was in review. Today I called, they said that it wasn't processed because I needed to settle a bill with T-Mobile. Okay. I didn't pay the bill b/c I was waiting to see if I needed to make a payment arrangement and buy a new freaking phone since I have to leave town in two days. No one called, emailed or anything, I am not sure how long it would have sat if I didn't call. I paid the bill. I called back to let them know. I was left on hold for 25 minutes. The person ignored me trying to get their attention, even though I KNOW that they can still hear you while you're on hold.

    I finally hung up out of frustration, I called back and spoke to what seemed like a nice guy named Mike, Mike apologized profusely, said that he updated my account and that someone would call me back to "give me an update" and that I should know something in 24 hours. It has now been 24 hours and NO ONE ever called. I just called back, and my account WAS NOT updated by Mike, and the lady said that they SHOULD review it in ANOTHER 24-48 hours! THIS IS A HORRIBLE COMPANY AND A HORRIBLE SERVICE. I am very disappointed in them and T-Mobile. I will continue to lodge complaints as long as they continue to give me the runaround!
