“My square trade experience”

Written on: 07/05/2013 by janieanne65 (1 review written)

Square Trade staff were very helpful, but sadly were let down by their Courier company who did not communicate with me to arrange a collection time, for my VHS/DVD player that was faulty. They turned up one day when I was at work and had no knowledge that they were coming. Fortunately, Square Trade staff resolved the issue without the Courier. Communication not good!! (read more)

“Squaretrade claim experience - happy!!”

Written on: 13/04/2013 by emma7011 (1 review written)

I recently had to make a claim on my Squaretrade warranty for my Macbook Pro which unfortunately had a glass of cola spilled on it. I first called Squaretrade on 10th March, and the claim was finally resolved on 3rd April. Much longer than I'd expected but I'm still very happy with the service. All the customer service advisors I spoke to were very helpful and polite. The initial phone call took about 30 mins, and I was asked various questions about the damage to the laptop before they could... (read more)

Square Trade guarenteed my daughters reconditioned i pod which failed to work after 6 months. Square Trade went through troubleshooting over the phone in an attempt to rectify the problem. When this failed they gave clear instructions and free postage labels for the item to be returned. Within a week the gtotal amount paid for the i pod was refunded into my bank. I believe they offered a good service and were value for money. (read more)

“Insure with confidence”

Written on: 14/03/2013 by t0mb0la (1 review written)

Warranty was purchased as a "just in case" and I was certainly glad I had. When the insured item went faulty, one phone call was all I needed to begin a claim. Call was answered quickly, along with any questions I had, and I was taken through the claim process easily and painlessly. Being an item too large and heavy to take advantage of the free delivery labels I was sent, It was straightforward to have a courier collect instead. This was arranged for me, after a quick exchange of messages,... (read more)

I was circumspect, seeing how I should buy a product and also buy additional warranty, but then I decided it's worth it, as gadgets are fragile and break all the time - even though I'm careful with 'em. I loved how the ebay transaction was fast and reliable, and how they answered my phone every time, in less than a minute. I loved how they were sympathetic to my situation, and not arrogant or scoffing at me. There is absolutely nothing I would reproach them; I just hope they... (read more)

“Worthwhile Warranty for Peace of Mind”

Written on: 28/02/2013 by wendylynn (1 review written)

I was eager to take out a warranty on the tablet I bought, as it was for my daughter's Christmas, and I wanted the peace of mind that if anything happened to it, we would be covered. Registering my product was very easy, and the cost to take out the warranty was very good value. When the tablet got dropped (and not by my daughter, might I add, but by me!), I panicked when the screen no longer worked. Then I remembered the warranty and was relieved. I phoned up, and after about 5-10... (read more)
