If your service plan has a term of more than one year from the date of purchase and overlaps with the term of the manufacturer’s warranty, look first to the manufacturer’s warranty for coverage. This service plan excludes coverage for any loss covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, but may nevertheless provide benefits in addition to those provided by the manufacturer’s warranty.

If your service plan has a term of one year from the date of purchase and overlaps with the term of the one year manufacturer’s warranty, losses covered by the manufacturer during the manufacturer’s warranty period are covered under this service plan. This service plan also provides additional benefits.

 However, if your item was accidentally damaged and your Assurant Protection Plan covers accidental damage, you should contact Assurant regardless of whether the manufacturer’s warranty has expired. Please see your Terms and Conditions for details.

It depends on what kind of product you have protected, and whether your claim requires additional information. If your claim is immediately approved, we'll tell you the next steps.

If you have accidental damage protection, this coverage begins on the date of purchase. Mechanical and electrical breakdown coverage begins after the manufacturer's warranty expires. If you do not have manufacturer's warranty then your mechanical and electrical breakdown coverage begins on the date of purchase.

The difference between the mechanical and electrical breakdown coverage under the manufacturer's warranty versus under your Assurant Protection Plan, is when your coverage begins.

•  The mechanical and electrical breakdown coverage under the manufacturer's warranty begins immediately after you purchase your product.
•  The mechanical and electrical breakdown coverage under your Assurant Protection Plan begins after the manufacturer's warranty expires, keeping you and the product protected through the duration of your plan.

If your product does not have a manufacturer's warranty, then the mechanical and electrical breakdown coverage under your Assurant Protection Plan begins on the date of purchase.
