Anyone here getting Square Trade warranty with your Note 10+ ? Considering fact that phone costs $1100, is Square Trade worth it - or anything else for extended protection ?

I still have my SquareTrade warranty originally purchased for the Note9, now rolled over to the S10+ then I will roll it over to the Note10+ whenever it arrives.

It was $129 for 2 years and $99 deductible. FYI it doesn't cover loss or stolen.

Yes it is. I've never had to use the warranty for repairs, but it's definitely a great piece of mind.
Looks like when i try to checkout, i says ran into technical issue
Looking at their website they no longer offer the one time 2 year price, it's now monthly @ 8.99/month and $149 deductible. Does that link you posted get around this?
Thanks,

I hit the same thing, AFTER it took my credit card. You don't need to use that link just google squaretrade sartphone plan.
I called the number and was told they no longer offer that plan and it was my fault for using google to find them. I explained I was on a page in their site that took my credit card and that he's telling me it's an old unsupported page that you can only get to through google.
I asked to talk to manager and was told they were all busy and one would call me back.
I've used these guys in the past but from that experience I'd stay away from them at all costs. They now have credit cards under false pretense. If I don't get a satisfactory answer within 24 hours I'll be reporting them for PCI violations
UPDATE: Got a call from a "Manager" who obviously had no more clue than the idiot I talked to earlier. He kept saying "well if we charge you, we'll refund". He obviously has not idea about credit card security or his company obligations. I will be reporting them to Allstate and filing a PCI complaint first thing.
I guess I'll get Upsie a shot.
I have used Worth Ave Group. For 1100 in coverage it is about $100 with $50 deductible. Covers accidental damage and theft but not loss.

I have used them for a couple years. Worthavegroup.com. I have made claims for an iPhone and note 8 and note 9. You make the claim then get it fixed (pay out of pocket) submit your receipt. They cut a check within a couple days for the cost minus $50.

Its not. Don't get AT&T, but get SquareTrade (google it).
I have a case and a screen protector. I think insurance is better for lost/stolen situations, and squaretrade does not cover that. Anyone else?

When I priced SquareTrade out, a 2 year warranty came out to $5.20/mo. Not much cheaper than the $7/mo (which includes loss) from the carrier. If you get a corporate discount down to $5, then SquareTrade is more expensive.

Hmm... Where I work our square trade is 99. Which over the course of 20 months is ~5/mo. But either way its arguing over change.
The big difference is squaretrade is a 49 deductible and overnight replacement.

Well, I guess it's nice you can get deals… but for the rest of us…
squaretrade.com/android lists 2 years for $125 ($5.21/mo). Deductible is $99. Last time I went with carrier insurance, my policy mentioned 2-day replacement in the policy but they did overnight. Of course, they replaced my broken phone with a device I didn't like/want, so YMMV…

Zagg.com does insurance for $99 for 2 years of coverage. It's either $49 or $59 deductible I can't remember. I also think that it does not cover loss/stolen.

Just a quick FYI, corporate discounts do not apply to the insurance.
And yes, insurance alone is normally $7 but there's also a $3 add on that gives you mobile locate, and enhanced support.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
its best to get the insurance through Best Buy Mobile if you havn't bought it yet, im sure you have but maybe for next time
$10 a month no deductible
only thing is you have to have the phone to get a new one doesnt work if lost/stolen
The test
Don't bother with insurance unless you can answer YES to any of the following questions:
[ ] Are you a klutz?
[ ] Are you "rich"?
[ ] Do you feel unlucky, punk, well do ya?
[ ] Do you not have a backup phone?
[ ] Do you live an "active lifestyle"?
[ ] Do you not believe in using "protection" (cases)?
[ ] Have you ever lost a phone before or dropped it in the toilet?
[ ] Do you have a toddler?
:laugh:
I can only answer yes to the last question, but I'm still not bothering with insurance.
All above......
Lol

Not following, who is "they", $99 is less than at squretrade's web site, you can get $99 at Amazon for example. They key is the $25 deductable, usually $100.
I bought mine directly from squaretrade 99$ including tax but deductible is 99$ also. $25 for deductible is too good to be true for a 700$ phone. Maybe this insurance is not for smartphones hmm

Seeing as how I, (like many others on here) plan on purchasing/have purchased the VZW GN3 for full retail, how many are considering purchasing insurance for the handset? If so, SquareTrade, VZW $8/month, covered under a home insurance clause, etc. What will you be using and how much are you paying? I'd like the peace of mind knowing that incidental damage/theft/water damage will be fully covered and though I'll have a screen protector, I'll likely use it naked as I like its body lines and don't want to add ANY bulk to an already hefty sized phone.
Any input is highly suggested and welcomed! Thanks guys!

I am probably going with the Asurion option through Verizon. $5.18 a month and covers loss/theft/damage with a $99 deductible.
Square Trade all the way! They were awesome when I dropped my Note 2--had a new one in my hand in 24 hours (with no fees).

I use SqaureTrade on my Nexus 7 but I have Asurion for my phones because SquareTrade doesn't cover loss or theft
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4
So it seems that:
#1: SquareTrade - Yearly fee and no deductible?
#2: Asurion - I was told by a rep this morning when I picked up my SGN3 was $10/month (they raised it from $8/month) and a $100 deductible.
VZW has 3 Asurion options - $5.18, $8 & $10
My wife has the $5.18 for her Droid DNA
I have the $8 for my SGN3 - still not completely sure of the difference.

The note 10 and the pro are both incredible tablets. I still have both right now, lol. Picked up the note 10 first assuming the 12 would be too big for me, but the 12 looked so darn cool in the store... I went back yesterday and picked one up so I could try it before deciding which one to go with. The 12 does take a little adjusting to, but I love it. It isn't too heavy, using the pen with it is a blast, and once that logitech keyboard comes out for it, it will be a great little laptop replacement. I think the 10 is going be the one that goes back.

Shop around for SquareTrade as places like amazon, New egg, Tiger direct and Square trade directly all have different prices for the same thing.
Best Buy and Walmart even have protection plans.

Scope out Costco for their SquareTrade policies. I just bought one for my Note 10.1 2014 for $49.99. (It's good for cameras and tablets from $300-750 ... and you do NOT have to have purchased your device from Costco.). It's the best price I've found for a 2 year all-inclusive policy. Just my 2¢

That is a great deal but..........
I just got this from there web site.
This service plan is exclusive to Costco Members. You must purchase the new tablet or camera from a Costco Warehouse or from www.costco.com. Other terms and conditions apply.*
How the SquareTrade Service Works
Service plan must be purchased within 30 days of purchasing the tablet or camera in-store. If the tablet or camera is purchased online at Costco.com, then the service plan must be purchased within 30 days from receipt of tablet or camera.
I just got a 30% off coupon for a squaretrade warranty if anyone is interested. I bought my Note from Amazon so it was cheaper to just buy the squaretrade warranty straight from amazon.

I got my ST warranty a couple of weeks ago. I spent HOURS looking on line and trying a zillion codes that were posted. Each one said "this code has already been used". Amazon....YOU MUST BUY YOUR DEVICE FROM THEM FOR THE ST WARRANTY TO BE VALID. I have it first hand from Amazon and ST. Finally I called ST and said "listen, I've spent hours looking for a code that works. Is there anyway you would consider offering me a code?" "Sure, no problem". So after a few minutes he came back with a 30% code he generated for me. Just call them and ask for one

I was doing some googling to see if there was any insurance available for our new phones like Asurion which I have on my S6 w/ Verizon.
I came across this site http://www.worthavegroup.com/product/cell-phone-insurance/ and I was wondering if anyone one has used them before.
They cover anything and everything that can happen including lost/theft.
For 1 year of coverage the cost is $64 and has a $50 deductible.
Seems like a great deal just never heard of anyone using them before.

Have yet to file a claim (*knock on wood*) but I have used Squaretrade for quite some time.
A little bit of googling and get you 25% to 30% off making it ~ $70 for 2 years of coverage.
$75 deductible I think.

Nope,
You can only insure a phone that Verizon sells in their stores. So you could technically buy someone elses Samsung S5 for example and put it on your line and keep it insured. You just cannot bring a phone that was not sold by VZW and insure it.
If you already have an old phone, you are also eligible for an additional Family plan discount on Square Trade. No experience with these guys, but Square trade has been awesome for me with next day shipping or walk into a store to get most of the issues resolved (For Walk-ins, you dont have to pay any deductible, if you use one of there preferred stores)

I bought through then for my 6p, but I was unable to find an coupon codes that worked. I even signed up a junk email address of mine to get the coupon they send out, and it explicitly said "not valid on smartphone plans" in the fine print.
Squaretrade is great, just understand that they ARE NOT a phone INSURANCE plan, they are a PROTECTION plan.
Insurance covers loss and theft, protection plans only cover damage.
I also got squaretrade with the accidental damage protection. $99 for 2 years with $75 deductible. Covers devices up to $999. Only catch though like the_hustleman says it does not cover loss or theft. Can't really blame them though. That's how they keep great rates. Just keep your phone on you at all times.
Also like Squaretrade for device insurance....

What insurance gives you is peace of mind. $99 to join and $75 per incident is doable if I break my phone. Paying another 600 outright ain't happening. and would cost more anyways. That's just how insurance works. You pay a small amount in a pot that can be used by all contributors to the pot in case they need it. You don't get to take your money back out of the pot after 2years just because you did not use it. You were covered for those 2 years.
