While the company operates on a massive scale providing necessary protection for broken or lost hardware, policyholders frequently report friction when attempting to utilize the coverage they pay for.

  • Refurbished Device Quality: Many policyholders complain that replacement phones arrive in inferior condition, featuring battery degradation, cosmetic flaws, or lingering software glitches.
  • High Deductibles: Users often express surprise at the out-of-pocket service fees and deductibles required before a repair or replacement is approved.
  • Customer Service Runarounds: A common grievance is long hold times and representatives transferring callers back and forth between Asurion and their cellular carrier or retailer without solving the issue.
  • Repair Delays: Customers note frustration with rescheduled appointments, missing parts at walk-in locations, and prolonged turnaround times for mail-in device repairs.
  • Subscription Cancellation Issues: Multiple reports cite difficulties removing monthly protection plan charges from carrier bills after canceling the policy.
