Product Description

From the Manufacturer

A SquareTrade Care Plan protects your electronics and appliances from mechanical and electrical failures during normal use. It provides: Two to four years of coverage, starting at the date of item purchase – please refer to the warranty title for the coverage length. 100% parts and labor – with no deductibles. Item repaired or item price paid out if SquareTrade can't fix it. SquareTrade – The Best Warranty Around: Easy Claims Filing with a Five-day Service Guarantee: SquareTrade’s claim process is painless. Start a claim online or over the phone. Express shipping is free to and from SquareTrade’s depot, and you’ll be sent a special shipping box for fragile electronics. You’ll receive email updates at every step in the process so you’ll never be left in the dark: Five-Day Service Guarantee: SquareTrade will reimburse the full item price or fix your item and ship it back within five business days of receiving it at the depot, or your care plan is free. For large items with in-home service, a local technician will contact you to schedule service within five business days of claim approval (Since in-home service is dependent on the customer’s schedule, repair times are not guaranteed within five days). Hassle-Free Coverage SquareTrade has designed the warranty with your needs in mind. They make it easy for you to: Manage it online. You can view, print, cancel, transfer, and even file a claim online and keep tabs on its progress. Cut the paperwork. You can fax or email SquareTrade your item receipt at any time, and they will store it as proof of purchase. Cancel anytime. In the first 30 days, you may cancel for a full refund. After that, you are reimbursed the unused part of your care plan – e.g., if you cancel your 3-year care plan, after 18 months with no claims, you’ll get 50% of your money back. Transfer at no cost. When your device changes ownership, so can your care plan. Transfers can be done online or via phone. No refurbished replacements. The last thing you want when your item breaks down is a cheap refurbished item that is two generations old. If your item breaks and can’t be fixed, you will be reimbursed your full item replacement cost. As Seen On: Other Things You Should Know: Upon purchase, you will get an email. This is your official confirmation of a purchase. The email will also have a link to the "My Warranties" section on the SquareTrade website where you can view and manage your care plans. You will not get a paper contract unless you request one. Please read the terms and conditions in the .pdf file at the top of the page. There is an easy to understand 2 page summary with all the highlights you need to know. Coverage lasts two to four years from item purchase date. The coverage length is described in the care plan title. Your plan begins on the date you purchased your item and is inclusive of the manufacturer warranty period. If your item arrives late, call SquareTrade and your plan can be extended to the shipping date. If you have an issue and are covered by the manufacturer at that time, you’ll be directed to the manufacturer first. It only covers new, in box items.

5.0 out of 5 stars Square Trade, June 3, 2009

I'm not really in to giving reviews but I am so impressed with Square Trade that I feel that a review is in order. I bought a computer with a Square Trade warranty from eBay that bit the dust. Thinking that I had to cut through miles of red tape and play phone tag, I called Square Trade. Much to my surprise it was quite the opposite. A few minutes after the phone call, Square Trade sent me an affidavit via email which I printed, signed, scanned and returned via email and by the next day the insurance money was placed in my PayPal account! In addition to their quickness, I give them an A+ on their ability to communicate, friendliness, great prices, and overall efficiency. I definitely will use Square Trade's services again and highly recommend them.

I bought two used laptops on Ebay in June 2009. I then bought two Square Trade Warranties. Almost immediately, one of the laptops stopped working. The seller gave me a full refund and I was able to cancel my Square Trade Warranty and get my money refunded. The other laptop lasted just a couple of days after my warranty kicked in and then the backlight display stopped working. I called Square Trade, they evaluated the problem and said to send the laptop to them. They sent me a pre-paid shipping label. Once they checked out the machine, they refunded the full amount of my purchase. I couldn't be happier. Instead of loosing the full amount of the purchase, It only cost me the amount of the Square Trade warranty which was about $71.00

I bought a computer off Ebay and almost did not purchase the Square Trade Warranty. I am glad I did, after 9 months the computer developed problems and I called Square Trade. I did not think I would be able to file a claim, but the people at Square Trade talked to me like a real person. They e-mailed me an affidavit to sign, which I did, and sent back and they put the purchase price in my Pay Pal account. When I find a computer to replace the one that died, I will purchase a Square Trade Warranty. Well worth the investment.
