Hello, I was given a samsung tab s recently and insurance wasn't purchased at the retailer? Am I still able to purchase coverage?

Every tablet or any electronic device for that matter should come with a basic manufacturer warranty that covers defects with the hardware, etc. SquareTrade is additional coverage that covers accidents like drops or if you spill something on it. I think you can purchase SquareTrade's coverage within 30 days of purchasing your tablet. I'm not 100% sure though. Hope this helps, Gen!

I think So, they do require the receipt. But this is great company to work with I use them for all electronics.

You do realize that box is sent by the manufacturer to every retailer. Samsung isn't interested in getting returns from their distributors...so they package them with enough protection in the original box. Accidents happen...no product can be protected from the greatest abuses...so exchange if necessary. Have you seen the commercials for most tablets...they can take some abuse.

Nope. Just get one from the mobile provider of your choice as the tab is unlocked. Enjoy. :-)

I just bought mine from Sears for $879 and a 14mo. 0% finance offer. Had tried here and Best Buy but both were out of stock. Only concern I have now is whether to add the service agreement. I may make a bet that the 630 will last past the insurance coverage term anyway. Service insurance can be an expensive gamble. Knock on wood, I've NEVER had to use any that I bought in the past, plus Samsung does have a really good reliability record with their products. I'll be back with my first impressions of the 40b630 after Christmas. It's a gift for my wife!

I think other retailers also offer the plan ( like Costco), so I think you can buy this protection on its own. May be best to contact the insurers.

The coverage starts approximately 2 days after purchase. I received mine on the 22nd of October, and the coverage started on the 24th of October!! Once you get their paperwork from Square Trade, your coverage has generally already started. You MUST contact Square Trade to register your tablet. They need the information off of the tablet.

I would go to Amazon and buy it through them. As I remember you have 30 days from the time of purchase from other retailers but you have 90 days if you purchased you tablet through Amazon.

Dear friend I wish there was a good answer but to my surprise I bought this protection and when my tablet fail down and had a crack on the screen they turned down my claim without proper reason and told I have to contact the manufacturer while it says that they cover you from day one and mine had only 65 days. So just think. May be you will be another victim.

http://altegobrand.com/warranty/ You might find your answer, at the url, I provided. However, I do not know if you're covered, if you bought it off Amazon. Amazon unintentionally voids warranties, with some companies. Amazon will void by making you the third party and some companies, like Otter Box, will not honor the warranty. Hopefully this has been helpful. Doesn't hurt to talk to the company. Godbless.

You can, but I wouldn't buy it at all. My grandson dropped his tablet and we put in a claim on accident coverage, that was two months ago. We have called and sent email messages and nothing has been done. Every time we call they can not find our information and they say that there is something that we did not send the last time we called. I had to replace the tablet myself so the next time I buy something I will save my money instead of wasting it with Square Trade.

should be able to. I bought a galaxy tab 2 7 inch refurbished and got a really good plan that covers breakage and all good for two years at replacement price which is the new price.

It was offered to me when I purchased my son's tablet. You can also go to their website squaretrade.com and purchase a plan from them.

Hi Les,Do you mean during shipment of the phone to you or once you have received and own the phone? Unfortunately, Amazon doesn't allow us to insure shipments through their marketplace - so I cannot offer you shipping insurance. If you mean once you own the phone: When you take the phone to AT&T; to get a SIM card put in it, in order to put it on your phone plan you can purchase insurance for the device from AT&T; directly.

I believe that you can as long as you can provide a receipt of purchase... I know that you can replace your cell phone insurance with Square Trade as well. I highly recommend Square Trade, they provide excellent service and very efficient. Go to to their website and there you can find answers to more of your questions...

I believe you have a window to add the protection plan. Check the web site or with customer service for the time frame allowed. Just be sure to read the small print. The plan ends when the company has covered the cost of your gadget. That may be in two months, twelve months ... or may last the entire two years if you have not needed their help before then.

Not a problem. Well, here's my honest answer. I have a "square trade" warranty on my cell phone and on my tablet. My wife recently used her square trade warranty for her cellphone and the company was fast, reliable and friendly. Since everything (now a days) is so mobile, I feel secure in knowing that I'm covered. I think my policy covered up to $700 (I'd have to look it up). Personally, I find that's very reasonable. Also, I use a free app for saving files, "drop box". I installed it on my tablet. Please let me know if this was helpful. If you have any other questions please feel free to ask. Enjoy the weekend.

It Depends: The coverage is equal to the cost of the product purchased. ($200 Tablet) Each time you have a claim they subtract their cost of repair from that amount (ie. $200 Tablet - $75 Repair = $125; Future repair needed $125 Balance - $100 repair = $25 etc...) If they replace the product purchased then that of course it is the end of the coverage. Also if the repair cost the balance of the Cost of the product then that will be the only time you can claim coverage. Hope this helps.
