Top Positive Review

I’ve used Asurion for many different product replacement plans both through Amazon and brick-and-mortar establishments. Every time it has been effortless.

I used this plan on a tablet. The screen got broke after 4 months and I tried to use the plan but they told me that the plan will not cover that specific tablet. So why was I able to link it to that purchase. So Asurion is selling a plan with items that it doesn’t cover. Just knowing that whoever buys electronics is going to want a protection plan. So this one is a scam.
