What is the difference between coverage amount and protection plan price? I thought I was paying just a one time fee of $5-6 for 2 year coverage.

No, it's a separate policy, which, like I did, you can get through Amazon, but it comes from them [Square Trade]. I bought one on my external 3 1/2 disk drive (as I have old ones I want to use with my PC). If you have questions, you can contact them, as I did, either by email, or phone, they were pretty helpful on mine. Thanks for asking Jen, and have a nice day/evening, depending on when you sent this, and receive this reply.

Coverage amount is how much your product is worth and you pay with in that price range. Like you said for $5 to 6 your price range of the product you brought must be 50 to 100 dollars one time payment for 2 years of.the protection plan. This is good because the company that you buy the product from would want you to come out of your pocket for packing and shipping. On top of that you might have to pay a deductible. So Square Trade would be your best bet.

I rented one first and some of the cost was covered by insurance. I purchased one when I found out that I would need it longer than 6 weeks and that it was cheaper to buy than rent. I don't know if my insurance would have covered it or not.

To aid in the 30 day price guarantee, www.priceprotectr.com will watch the price for you.I too started watching this price when it was $2199, finally bought it at $2318 before it went up any more. I just got a credit for $10 because it went back to $2308 since I purchased it.

Depends on the coverage you buy. I DID buy accident coverage on my digital camera - and I did indeed drop and break it... I had no trouble getting my FULL purchase price back. I use Square Trade on all my purchases for years. I have filed several claims. Last was for my iPhone - and I had a replacement within a few days. I have not had one single bad experience. I don't work for them - or have any association with the company except as a customer.... I hope that helps

Hi Alan. I've purchased four different Square Trade Protection Plans over the past three years on electronic purchases. I was e-mailed the plan information and it was already activated within two hours of purchasing the plan. I was also sent a "bar coded fax cover sheet" from Square Trade with item description, warranty ID information, etc. to have and use if I needed to use the warranty. All in all, it's not a bad protection plan for the money if you ever need to use it. Especially with expensive electronic purchases. Hope this helps you out. Good luck. Jim.

That I am not sure of. I have never been one to get a warranty for anything. Its a personal preference. I see there is a bundle option with the laptop for some kind of warranty here: Canopy 2-Year Laptop Accidental Protection Plan ($800-$900)Sorry if I wasn't all too much help but thanks for asking!

I would definitely contact the warranty company and ask. As I understand it as long as you bought your computer on Amazon. I am not sure there is a time frame from purchase to getting coverage but it is worth a shot. I have received great customer service from both Amazon and Square Trade. Hope this helps.

I purchased the coverage and then didn't get the item i needed to put it on. I then tried to cancel the purchase within 5 min and they would not cancel it. So I have no idea what the coverage is.

All manufacturers warranties are honored by the manufacturer regardless of where the purchase was made, so yes, you get a 2 year warranty. Also, keep in mind certain credit card companies offer free extended warranty coverage. I have a specific business card that I use for these types of purchases and it automatically adds 1 year of extra coverage up to a maximum of 3 years. So, be smart and use that kind of a CC if you have one.

BTW, don't let the $35/mo intimidate you... They offer annual plans that result in substantial savings. If you buy a year of coverage, you can get the highest reporting interval (every minute, normally $35/mo) at a cost of only $20/month. If you are just wanting to do some short term sleuthing, go with one of the monthly plans. If your need is long term, annual subscription is the way to go.

The detail in the listing states: Product Features 2-year coverage from date of purchase: drops, spills & hardware failures I have several phones with them covered; two recently that the warranty was applicable to; Square Trade did exactly what they said they would do; without exception. For one phone able to workout a new phone with ATT and ST paid what they would have; the 2nd is being repaired under warranty less the deductible. Both done to my satisfaction. I have several other warranty's with them; the way they handled the several phones provides confidence to use them. For the most part, we have had no claims on all the policies so knowing how they have handled the cell phones gives piece of mind that we have coverage if we need it; the warranty is with it in my opinion. My better than the cell phone company's that has deductibles too. You can also go to Square trade website to view 2 year plan which costs $125 vs $99. http://www.squaretrade.com/smartphone-warranty

I do not think that I can be of much help but I purchased the extended warranty and they might be able to assist. I hope this helps even if just a little. SquareTrade 2-Year Fitness Protection Plan ($300 - 400)

It's been awhile, but if I recall correctly, there are a few different coverage levels and you DO pay the highest amount for accidental damage coverage. I think mechanical failure alone is cheaper.

My guess is that it would depend on the individual insurance policy you have. Check with your own insurance company for the most trustworthy response. I purchased this as a gift for my mother, so I did not ask an insurance company to cover the cost. It may also be possible for you to rent the device rather than purchase it, so ask about that option when you speak to your insurance agent.

No but I got a protection plan through SquareTarget (2 year plan for about $45.00) when I bought it.
