Product Description

Legal Disclaimer

The Squaretrade 3-Year Warranty + Accident Protection & Theft Cover for Kindle is only available on a Kindle that has been purchased within the last 30 days on Amazon.co.uk or at an offline retailer, and is only available for customers who are residents of the United Kingdom. The Warranty is offered and sold by SquareTrade Limited ("SquareTrade"), which includes the processing of your information by SquareTrade. See the following Terms and Conditions for complete details:

Consumer Rights for Faulty Goods

Your Kindle warranty comes with a one-year manufacturer’s warranty. If you are a consumer, you will also have consumer rights and this 3-year warranty is provided to you in addition to these rights, and does not prejudice your consumer rights in any way. However, your consumer rights will not include protection for accidental damage. If your Kindle is faulty you may be entitled to claim a free repair or replacement from the retailer. For more information on your consumer rights for faulty goods, click here.

Manufacturer's Description

3 years of Accident & Theft Cover for your Kindle

The vast majority of Kindle failures occur 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 of a table
  • You drop it in water
  • It is stolen
  • It is chewed, smashed, or trodden

In addition to accidents and theft, the 3-Year Warranty also covers you from all electrical and mechanical breakdowns two extra years after Amazon's one year manufacturer 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

Timeline for warranty coverage for Mechanical and Electrical problems, and for Accidental Breakage

Easy Claims Filing

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

The claims process is painless - call 866 374 9939 6am to 10pm PST 365 days a year

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 firstly verify this crime reference number, and then we will ship the replacement device.

Hassle-Free Warranty

SquareTrade has designed the warranty with your needs in mind. They make it easy for you to:

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.
Excellent Prices Excellent Prices: You get 3 years of accident protection for your Kindle at a price that is about 40% less than what you would find at other similar retailers.

Know Your Options

Before getting a SquareTrade Warranty for your Kindle, you should know that you may be covered in other ways. Here's a look at some of the options you have:

Coverage Plan
Comments
Home Contents Insurance
Every Home Contents Insurance policy differs, so be sure to check your policy to see if it offers portable electronics cover (not all do). Some policies may also have an Excess that is close to or higher than the value of your Kindle.
Sale of Goods Act
It does not cover accidents – which are the majority of Kindle failures. For more information, see: http://whatconsumer.co.uk/how-long-should-it-last
Consumer Credit Act
The Consumer Credit Act doesn't provide cover for accidents or to products that break down beyond the manufacturer's warranty.

Other Things You Should Know

  • Upon purchase, you will get an email. This is your official confirmation of a purchase. A paper confirmation will also be sent to you by post. So as to offer an efficient customer experience, SquareTrade may also contact you about your purchase by telephone.
  • Please read the terms and conditions from the link at the top of the page. There is also a link to an easy-to-understand Key Facts Document with a summary of answers to the main questions you may have.
  • Start Date: Warranty lasts three years from Kindle purchase date. Your warranty plan begins on the date you purchased your Kindle and is inclusive of the manufacturer warranty period. For pre-ordered products or items that are delivered late, call SquareTrade to extend your warranty plan to the actual shipping date. If you have an issue and are covered by the manufacturer at that time, you'll be directed to the manufacturer first.
  • For assistance please call 020 3356 6205. Call us 7am-9pm GMT, 7 days a week - an agent is always happy to assist you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Warranty 19 April 2012
By Bronn TOP 1000 REVIEWER
This warranty is only valid for Kindles purchased in the last 30 days. After purchase you'll get confirmation
through email and post, the first time i purchased a warranty from Squaretrade i also got a phone call from a
nice customer service rep who just went over some basic info - it was unneeded but not unpleasant or anything.

Once the certificate of insurance is in your hand the warranty period begins. For mechanical issues the
first year is covered by Amazon, and the next 2 by Squaretrade. For accidents, Squaretrade cover the 3 years.

Squaretrade say that you're entitled to unlimited repairs and replacements, but the small print for this warranty
states that you're only eligible for 3 Kindle replacements, once you reach number 3 your policy ends immediately.

For mechanical breakdown and accidental damage the policy is quite simple, but for theft you'll need to follow some
rules. If your Kindle is stolen you must inform Squaretrade within 48hrs and have a valid police crime number. If
you fail to notify them within 48hrs they can decide not to cover you. The main exclusions against theft are if it
was from within a vehicle or on public transport, or a property where forced entry did not occur. Keep this in mind.

The policy comes with a "Cancel Anytime" option too. Within the first 90 days you can get all of your money back
if you haven't claimed, after that period your entitled to a refund for the remainder of the warranty, e.g if
you used 1.5 years but decide you don't want it any more Squaretrade will refund you 50% of the purchase price.

The warranty is valid worldwide wherever you use your Kindle but replacements can only be sent to the UK, so if you
decide to move abroad you might want to transfer the warranty to someone else and sell your Kindle, it's free to transfer.

I have only needed a replacement once since i took out the Squaretrade warranty and the process was painless. After
calling & explaining what happened, the customer service rep politely explained everything and informed me that a
replacement would be sent out immediately. I received it within 2 days and returned the damaged one back free of charge.

This does exactly what it says and is good to have for peace of mind, especially if your always taking your Kindle with
you. The claims process really is painless and everything from Squaretrade's customer service to delivery is great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kindle touch 3G 31 May 2012
By Deky
Amazon Verified Purchase
This is my first Kindle and as it is the most expensive I considered extra cover would be sensible in case I need to claim for faults after the one year warranty expired. This Square deal protection plan does more than just extending the cover for faults it provides three years accidental cover and all this for just £45. On purchasing this cover on the Amazon web site I had confirmation of cover and the details it provides within minutes direct from 'Square Deal'. What more can anyone ask for?

4.0 out of 5 stars Service with ease 26 Jun 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
On purchases such as a Kindle it occured to me to consider insuring it. Rarely have I considered this action until I was gifted with a Kindle for Fathers Day.

On examing the terms of the 3 Year Protection Plan 'offered' via Amazon I found it acceptable and very simple to apply for.

Within a couple of hours the insurance was applied for and in place. The policy document and terms available for printing out.

An excellent insurance product that I would / will recommend for anybody in a similiar situation seeking cover.
