do you need to purchase plan at same time of purchased item?

No. You can buy it at time of purchase of item (A good idea.) or you can do it later. Another way is not buying say at Amazon but at Best Buy and still going to Square Trade for the Protection Plan. Square Trade makes money because most people do not need to use the plan BUT having it is very nice IF you do need it!

when you purchase the item and have the option to add the coverage you will get an email stating that you have to open an account with them to complete the coverage. After blowing it they finally said i didn't have to open an account and would be still covered but that remains to be seen. hope this helps

Yes. Make sure the Applecare starts on your purchase date, not the seller's

I have no clue why this question was forwarded on to me from Amazon. Yes, my wife bought the canopy as a customer, that sounds more like a question for the seller / retailer. My guess would be , yes you can purchase anytime, and I assume it's 'effective' the date of purchase. Again, I'm not the seller. Happy Holidays !!

my understanding is yes. I purchased my plan at a different time than I purchased my Tab and they covered it without any problem. They didn't even care that I did not get the receipt to them until I needed to have my tablet repaired - which they replaced instead.

Susan, as far as I know the plan is offered when the item is purchased through Amazon. You would have to contact Square Trade directly to answer your question.

As far as I know you can activate whenever you want. The plans, however, do change. What is available today may not be available next month.

Yes, it is for new products only. This is a fantastic plan, but you must buy it within the first 30 days of purchasing your product. You may never need to use the plan, but rest at ease if you ever do have an accident with it. Like me, I had to use it within 6 months, and it was a hassle free experience. I now buy it with all of my products.

No and yes; you can buy it and pay for minutes/data, but the minutes/data you purchase will be gone in 30 days. This might be good if you use everything in 30 days, but bad if you are expecting it to hold its value until you use everything.

I would like to say yes, only because its within the 30 days of buying. I do have to say sorry thou, only because I bought mine when I bought the Tablet. So thoughts are yes only because when you do buy something you usually have 30 days to buy extra, but don't want to make it for sure. Good luck.

You should communicate with the vender(s) for that answer, i could not provide you with an answer to product you might purchase.My own purchase had plenty of time before the pull-date.

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.

You have to buy @ the beginning of the purchase. Also - you must keep your purchase receipt for the item for the entire length of the SQ warranty period even though you've registered your warrant! If you need to file a claim, they'll ask for a copy of that receipt. The paranoid side of me thinks they're betting most won't have that receipt and therefore SQ won't have to honor that claim.

I spoke with two Squaretrade reps today on the phone, and both said no. One said that it used to be the case, but they recently changed the policy. In order to avoid problems with claims down the road, he said that a plan for a computer purchased at Best Buy, for example, should be purchased directly from the Squaretrade website. Major bummer.

Yes, not a problem. Just email these details and your order ID number once you make your purchase.

No you have to use the coupon on one purchase. I asked the staff last time I used it.
