Filing an AT&T Warranty Claim With Zero Stress

AT&T is the number one telecommunications provider in the USA with more than 100 million subscribers and dizzying revenue of $175,1 billion. Apart from providing wireless, entertainment, and business services, this company also sells phones, tablets, smartphones, and other hand-held devices.

What Does the AT&T Warranty Policy Cover?

Most AT&T devices come with an original manufacturer warranty, but its duration depends on the type of device. The following table shows the coverage for all available products the company offers:

Type of DeviceWarranty Coverage Period

New Apple Devices

One year

New Devices Other Than Apple

AT&T RADIANT Max: Two years

AT&T Calypso: Two years

Other devices: One year

AT&T Certified Restored90 days
AT&T Certified Pre-OwnedNo warranty
Once Replaced DevicesOne year from the replacement date

The manufacturer bears the expenses of repairing any product defect resulting from a material/manufacturing error. This lasts as long as your device is under the provider’s original warranty. After it expires, you can purchase the AT&T extended warranty plan from Asurion Home+, AT&T’s business partner, and keep your devices safe for longer.

Are There Exceptions to the AT&T Warranty Policy?

To be able to claim your AT&T warranty, you need to make sure that the warranty policy covers the device failure you have encountered, as not all malfunctions are eligible for repair.

Here are some exceptions that may apply:

  • Damage caused by product misuse or improper installation
  • Unauthorized modifications or repairs that resulted in malfunctions
  • Spillage of foods, drinks, or any other liquid that resulted in malfunctions
  • Damage caused by combining AT&T devices with accessories that don’t align with the company’s prescribed standard
  • Physical damage caused by negligence (cracked frame, damaged ports, excessive dings, cracked or shattered screen, etc.)
  • Regular wear-and-tear parts of the device—screens, battery, camera lenses, and other components that need replacement from time to time
