Product Description

Product Description

3 years of Accident & Theft Cover for your Kindle

The vast majority of Kindle failures occurs because of accidents. With the 3-Year Warranty + Accident Protection & Theft Cover for Kindle, you are protected from day one if breaks occur because, for example:

  • It is knocked off a table
  • You drop it in water
  • It is stolen
  • It is chewed, smashed, or trodden on

In addition to accidents and theft, the 3-Year Warranty also covers you against all electrical and mechanical breakdowns after the manufacturer’s warranty ends. This includes battery replacement if the maximum charge falls below one-half of the original potential.

Your 3-Year Warranty Coverage Includes:

  • Up to 3 Kindle replacements, with no excess or fees
  • Hassle-Free Express delivery both ways

Easy Claims Filing

The claim process is painless - start by calling 020 3356 6205, 7am to 9pm GMT, 7 days a week.

Advanced Exchange

Broken Devices: SquareTrade will ship a replacement Kindle to you (same or newer model depending on availability). You will also receive a pre-paid shipping label to send back the damaged Kindle to the depot. A valid credit card is required on file to process an advanced exchange. If you don't return the damaged Kindle within 30 days, you will be charged the price of the replacement device.

Stolen Devices: If your device is stolen, you should notify the police and obtain a police crime reference number. When you call to file your claim, we will first verify this crime reference number, and then we will ship the replacement device.

Cancel anytime Cancel Anytime: Within 90 days you may cancel for a full refund if you haven't claimed on your warranty. After that, you are reimbursed the unused part of your warranty - e.g., if you cancel your 3-year warranty after 18 months with no claims, you'll get 50% of your money back.
Transfer at No CostTransfer at No Cost: When your Kindle changes ownership, so can your warranty.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not amused 11 Jan 2013
Verified Purchase
Have just purchased warranty for my new Kindle Paperwhite 3G. I saw it in the additional items window with my purchase, and decided to go ahead. Cost �44.99 for 3 year cover.

The warranty stated that it included for theft. I printed off the warranty cover document emailed by Square Trade. Under the heading Cover Description, it states :- " it does not provide protection against theft".

Have cancelled this warranty, would advise anyone else to read the small print.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's the IT again! 25 Oct 2012
Verified Purchase
I purchased this warranty and hope it lives up to expectation. I received a welcome email from Square Trade, which stated that I could log into the buyer centre on the Square Trade website and print off my policy document 24 hours a day. I tried this and was unable to find out how to print the details off. I telephoned Square Trade and the person I spoke to was also unable to find out how to print off the poicy conditions. After asking a colleague he informed me that I needed to go to the Amazon website, locate the policy, scroll down to a couple of links embedded in the page and would find the policy details and key facts about the policy.

This did rather leave me wondering why the email from Square Trade invited me to go to their website for the policy details, when they are actually on the Amazon website.

Talk about cart and horse!

5.0 out of 5 stars Broken Kindle 10 Jun 2013
Verified Purchase
As I am an avid reader, you can understand how I felt when my Kindles screen failed and was not able to read any of my books. Fortunately when buying the kindle I took out the insurance with Square trade. I was able to phone them (even on a Sunday!) and can honestly say that the assistance that I was given was excellent (thanks Rudy). The assistant managed to organise a replacement straight away and even rang back when they said that they would to confirm the details. If you are in any doubt whether or not to take this insurance out, do not think twice.

2.0 out of 5 stars Pricey. Weigh up the risk 16 Jan 2013
The premium is more than a third of the price of the product (�109). Note that the cover is not covered, just the Kindle.
If it is stolen at home, ie you are burgled, your household insurance already covers it.
It's not covered if you lose it (the most likely scenario)
You would have to be the victim of a robbery to benefit. There aren't too many robberies around my area!
This leaves breakdown. It's already covered by Amazon for the first year.
So effectively, in terms of risk, you are getting 2 yrs breakdown cover. Pricey.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth it 8 Jun 2013
Verified Purchase
I'd had my old Kindle just short (by about two days) of two years when the screen froze and my Kindle stopped working. Because of my warranty on that machine I was given a replacement - hence I'm buying this warranty. If I hadn't had this guarantee the loss of my Kindle would have cost me three times what it has.

I'm not sure if this is a review to say how good the warranty is or if I'm saying how short the life expectancy of a Kindle is but I have bought a replacement Kindle and Warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent idea 8 May 2013
By Ness
Verified Purchase
This is a great product for kindle owners. Unfortunately I have broken 2 kindles accidentally (the joys of having to small children 'helping' to move things) and have had to fully replace one just outside of the 12 month warranty. I wished I had been able to purchase this before as it would have been a lot cheaper than buying a new kindle!

This warranty offers great cover and peace of mind.

It's hard to review an insurance policy as I have had no call to use it, and hope not to do so.
