Understanding Your Asurion Plan

First, you want to make sure you fully understand your Asurion plan and whether you are eligible for a refund. The information below outlines Asurion's protection plan limitations.

Deductibles

Your deductible is set and cannot be negotiated. Asurion will not adjust your deductible from what is listed in your protection plan.

Time Limits

The time frame to request a refund or file a claim is limited. The usual amount is 60 days, but make sure you've read all the terms and conditions of your plan to be within that window.

Replacements

Know that sometimes you'll be provided a comparable replacement device instead of a refund for the device costs.

Terms and Conditions

As mentioned earlier, know the terms and conditions of your Asurion protection plan. While the terms and conditions may not be exciting reading material, it is important to know what is in them to protect your device, your plan and your purse.

Escalating Your Request

Understand that there may be a time when you need to escalate your refund request to a higher level. By knowing the terms and conditions of your plan, you'll know when to escalate your request.

Requesting a Refund

The most effective and quickest way to get a refund for an Asurion charge is to cancel the plan and return it within 30 days of purchase. After that 30 day window, the plan cannot be returned/canceled for a refund. You can request a refund by canceling your plan or via telephone.

Canceling Your Plan

If you are in that 30-day purchase window of your Asurion plan, you can cancel it and get a refund. To cancel follow these steps:

1. Open the website where you purchased your electronic item.
2. Select the product.
3. Click on the return button.
4. Follow the steps to confirm cancelation.
5. You should receive a cancelation confirmation email detailing when to expect your refund.

Telephone

You can call Asurion customer support here for assistance with a refund. Provide the customer service representative with your name, date of purchase, protection plan number and reason for canceling. The representative will walk you through the refund process and assess if you are eligible for a refund.

When you purchase Asurion, you have a 30-day window to cancel your protection plan and request a refund. If you file a claim on your plan, you have a slightly larger time frame, but there is still a time limit on how to get a refund or replacement.
