Great service and value from AKKO

I purchased an extended warranty on a recumbent elliptical that I purchased last November.

Something happened and it stopped working. I filed a claim with AKKO and They authorized a repair company to come out and give an estimate, and then repair.

The machine was repaired, and I received the funds within a week of the repair.

This company is an absolute scam

This company is an absolute scam. STAY AWAY! First my TV screen started going out... 3 months after filing a claim and submitting the video as requested, nothing. Then my Motorola razr flip 2024 screen bleeds out, and they refuse to help because I can't show them in a video my IMEI. How on earth am I supposed to show an IMEI on the phone with a broken screen? Scam artists to the fullest. Stay away, don't throw your hard earned money at these clowns.

Had an LCD malfunction on my Samsung Frame TV and AKKO made the entire claims process incredibly easy. Communication was fast and clear, and I received my payout much quicker than expected. It’s refreshing to deal with an insurance company that actually delivers on service. Highly recommend!

Akko is one of the best products of this type that I've ever dealt with. For the price of regular cell phone insurance you, you get so much more. I've filed more than one claim with them and it has been very straight forward and the paid me (less my deductible) instantly once I had submitted my receipt

For the most part a positive experience. Communications were not the fastest, and the amount they paid including adjusting for the deductible on the phone was less than it cost me to purchase a refurbished replacement, still happy overall with the experience…

Great customer service and insurance...

AKKO has gone above and beyond to make sure their customers are happy. They have provided great service as well as great coverage. While certain things may be a little hard to understand VIA their website, their customer service makes it easier to understand. Looking for to remaining an AKKO customer for years to come.

I will NOT be renewing my coverage with…

I will NOT be renewing my coverage with Akko once it runs out. Filing a claim is a nightmare and customer service is nonexistent. You can never speak to a live person and can only email or text or have an online chat. My daughter dropped her phone and shattered the back glass. They've fought us every step of the way! They kept asking for pictures and videos even though we had already sent them. They kept asking for the same information over and over again. Then they just ignored us and wouldn't respond until they were good and ready. Her phone is a 512gb and they tried to replace it with a 128gb. It's been over 2 weeks now and the case is still not resolved. I would never do business with Akko again. Sure, they're cheaper than other insurance companies but so not worth all the trouble and aggravation when you have a problem.

Best value for electronic device insurance

I have been using Akko for years. Their systems keep getting better, making the claims process even more seamless. I had a claim approval within a few hours after submitting my repair quote. The best thing is that Akko protects all of your devices for one price, making it a fantastic value.

2nd claim-- solid experience!

This was my second claim on my Akko plan-- and it was as seamless as the first! The battery in my phone was failing, and Akko covered the replacement of it at the Apple Store. I appreciate the prompt communication from the Akko team, and I am very pleased with the experiences I have had with the Akko claims team.

Stolen iphone and paid out within 48 hrs, great service!

Had iPhone stolen while abroad and they were super responsive. Gina and team were able to resolve within 48 hours and disperse payment. Overall great experience. Way better than past experiences with Apple Care as I was out of the country and needed cash to buy new phone and it was in my account within 48 hours of filing the claim.
