Dispute Resolution
The Coverage Certificate contains a binding and individual Arbitration Agreement. You can obtain a complete copy of the Arbitration Agreement by visiting phoneclaim.com/att. You should read the Arbitration Agreement carefully and completely, since it affects your rights. The Arbitration Agreement requires you to: 1) RESOLVE ANY DISPUTES THROUGH BINDING AND INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATIONS OR SMALL CLAIMS COURT ACTIONS INSTEAD OF THROUGH COURTS OF GENERAL JURISDICTION; AND 2) WAIVE YOUR RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO PARTICIPATE IN CLASS ACTIONS OR ARBITRATIONS. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court, and it uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury. The Arbitration Agreement allows arbitration proceedings to take place in the county of your billing address and requires that those proceedings be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with their Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes. You can learn more about the AAA and those rules by visiting adr.org. The Arbitration Agreement does not prevent you from informing federal, state or local agencies of any dispute, since they may be able to seek relief on your behalf. If you do not want to submit disputes to binding and individual arbitration or you do not agree to any other provision of the Arbitration Agreement, you should contact AT&T and cancel your AT&T Protect Advantage coverage. You will receive a prorated refund of any amounts paid for that coverage as applicable.  The included Coverage Certificate is the entire agreement between the insurer and you. Please refer to the Coverage Certificate, Service Contract and Terms of Service for complete terms and conditions of the coverage provided.

Most of your concerns about this Certificate can be addressed simply by contacting us at 888.562.8662. In the event we cannot resolve any dispute with you, YOU AND WE AGREE TO RESOLVE THOSE DISPUTES THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS COURT INSTEAD OF THROUGH COURTS OF GENERAL JURISDICTION. YOU AND WE AGREE TO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND WAIVE THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN CLASS ACTIONS OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDINGS.

    1. This A.A.:
    • Survives termination of this Policy.
    • Is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
    • Covers any dispute you have with us concerning or related, directly or indirectly, to this Policy.
    • Does not prevent you from bringing an individual action against us in small claims court instead of pursuing arbitration.
    • Does not prevent you from informing any government agency of your dispute. They may be able to seek relief on your behalf.
    1. Arbitration Process:
    • How to start arbitration.
      • Send a written Notice of Claim by certified mail to Legal Department, P.O. Box 110656, Nashville, TN 37222.
      • Describe the dispute and relief sought in the Notice.
      • If the dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Notice, you may start an arbitration with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). You can contact the AAA and obtain a free copy of their rules and forms at www.adr.org or 1-800-778-7879.
      • Arbitration will be conducted by the AAA following the Consumer Arbitration Rules (“Rules”). A court may decide the enforceability of this A.A. The arbitrator will decide all other issues. The arbitrator is bound by this A.A.
      • Any hearing will take place in the county or parish of your mailing address unless you and we agree to a different location.
    1. Fees:
    • In most cases we will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees. If the arbitrator finds that your dispute was filed to harass or is frivolous, the Rules govern payment of the fees.
    • We will reimburse you for a filing fee paid to the AAA. If you are unable to pay a filing fee, we will pay it if you send us a written request.
    1. Arbitration Decision:
    • You and we agree not to disclose any settlement offers to the arbitrator before the arbitrator issues a decision.
    • If the arbitrator finds in your favor and the damages awarded are greater than the last settlement we offered, we will do the following.
      • We will pay you the greater of the damages or seven thousand five hundred dollars ($7,500).
      • We will also pay your reasonable attorney’s fees and arbitration expenses. You may not recover duplicate awards of fees and expenses.
    • We waive any right we have to recover attorney’s fees and expenses from you if we win the arbitration.
    • If you seek declaratory or injunctive relief, it can only be awarded as necessary to provide you relief.
      YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT IN A PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Unless you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate your dispute with any other person’s dispute and may not preside over any form of representative proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this A. A. is null and void.
  • No one may bring legal action, including arbitration, against us under this Certificate unless:

    1. There has been full compliance with all terms of this Certificate; and
    2. The action is brought within two (2) years, or any longer period as required by law, after you first have knowledge of the Loss or other events that are the basis of the action.
  • The coverage territory is worldwide but the cost of repair or replacement will be valued in U.S. currency at the time of repair or replacement. We will ship an approved repaired or replacement device directly to you within the United States and its territories or require you to pick it up at an Authorized Service Facility.

  • If you have a Loss to Covered Property that is part of a pair or set, we will only cover a reasonable and fair proportion of the total value of the pair or set.

  • We may make available to you other limited benefits or services related to your Covered Property where available.
    These may include: property location or recovery services; data management or recovery services; device service and maintenance; technical support; reduced cost upgrade or purchase benefits or other services provided through your Service Provider or any Authorized Service Facilities.

  • We agree that any terms of this Certificate not in conformity with applicable law are conformed to comply with such law. If any portion of this Certificate is deemed invalid or unenforceable, it shall not invalidate the remaining portion of this Certificate.

  • This Certificate contains the entire agreement between you and us concerning the insurance afforded. This Certificate’s terms can be amended or waived only by issuance of a new Certificate, or endorsement issued by us and made a part of this Certificate.

  • We retain the right to revise this Certificate at any time and adjust the coverage terms, including the premium and the deductible. In the event of any material change in the coverage terms, you will be provided advance written notice of such changes. You may cancel coverage at any time without penalty, but if you continue to pay premiums after a change in coverage terms, you will be bound by such change.

  • If we make any changes to the Policy that would increase your coverage without additional premium, the increased coverage will immediately apply to this Certificate.

  • It is important that you back up all Data and software because this Certificate does not cover Loss or damage to your Data or Nonstandard Software and repairs to your Covered Property may result in the deletion of such Data or software. IT IS YOUR SOLE RESPONSIBILITY TO BACK UP ALL SOFTWARE AND DATA ON COVERED PROPERTY WITH HARD DRIVE(S) OR ANY OTHER STORAGE MECHANISM.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY BINDING ARBITRATION.

PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.
Summary:
Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by calling the AT&T ProTech support customer service department at 888-562-8662. In the unlikely event that AT&T’s customer service department is unable to resolve a complaint you may have to your satisfaction (or if AT&T has not been able to resolve a dispute it has with you after attempting to do so informally), we each agree to resolve those disputes through binding arbitration or small claims court instead of in courts of general jurisdiction. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Any arbitration under this Agreement will take place on an individual basis; class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted. For any non-frivolous claim that does not exceed $75,000, AT&T will pay all costs of the arbitration. Moreover, in arbitration you are entitled to recover attorneys’ fees from AT&T to at least the same extent as you would be in court. In addition, under certain circumstances (as explained below), AT&T will pay you more than the amount of the arbitrator’s award and will pay your attorney (if any) twice his or her reasonable attorneys’ fees if the arbitrator awards you an amount that is greater than what AT&T has offered you to settle the dispute.

ARBITRATION AGREEMENT

  1. AT&T and you agree to arbitrate all disputes and claims between us. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted.
    It includes, but is not limited to:

    • claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory;
    • claims that arose before this or any prior Agreement (including, but not limited to, claims relating to advertising);
    • claims that are currently the subject of purported class action litigation in which you are not a member of a certified class; and
    • claims that may arise after the termination of this Agreement.
      References to “AT&T,” “you,” and “us” include our respective subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns, as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services or Devices under this or prior Agreements between us. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court. This arbitration agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies, including, or example, the Federal Communications Commission. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf. You agree that, by entering into this Agreement, you and AT&T are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement.
  2. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to AT&T should be addressed to: Office for Dispute Resolution, AT&T, 1025 Lenox Park Blvd., Atlanta, GA 30319 (“Notice Address”). The Notice must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). If AT&T and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or AT&T may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by AT&T or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or AT&T is entitled. You may download or copy a form Notice and a form to initiate arbitration at www.att.com/arbitration-forms.

  3. After AT&T receives notice at the Notice Address that you have commenced arbitration, it will promptly reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than $75,000. (The filing fee currently is $200 for claims under $10,000 but is subject to change by the arbitration provider. If you are unable to pay this fee, AT&T will pay it directly upon receiving a written request at the Notice Address.) The arbitration will be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules are available online at adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by writing to the Notice Address. (You may obtain information that is designed for non-lawyers about the arbitration process at
    www.att.com/arbitration– information.) The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision are for the court to decide. Unless AT&T and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. Except as otherwise provided for herein, AT&T will pay all AAA filing, administration, and arbitrator fees for any arbitration initiated in accordance with the notice requirements above. If, however, the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all such fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In such case, you agree to reimburse AT&T for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. In addition, if you initiate an arbitration in which you seek more than $75,000 in damages, the payment of these fees will be governed by the AAA rules.

  4. If, after finding in your favor in any respect on the merits of your claim, the arbitrator issues you an award that is greater than the value of AT&T’s last written settlement offer made before an arbitrator was selected, then AT&T will:

    • pay you the amount of the award or $10,000 (“the alternative payment”), whichever is greater; and
    • pay your attorney, if any, twice the amount of attorneys’ fees, and reimburse any expenses (including expert witness fees and costs) that your attorney reasonably accrues for investigating, preparing, and pursuing your claim in arbitration (“the attorney premium”).
      If AT&T did not make a written offer to settle the dispute before an arbitrator was selected, you and your attorney will be entitled to receive the alternative payment and the attorney premium, respectively, if the arbitrator awards you any relief on the merits. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees, expenses, and the alternative payment and the attorney premium at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
  5. The right to attorneys’ fees and expenses discussed in paragraph (4) supplements any right to attorneys’ fees and expenses you may have under applicable law. Thus, if you would be entitled to a larger amount under the applicable law, this provision does not preclude the arbitrator from awarding you that amount. However, you may not recover duplicative awards of attorneys’ fees or costs. Although under some laws AT&T may have a right to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses if it prevails in arbitration, AT&T agrees that it will not seek such an award.

  6. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. YOU AND AT&T AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and AT&T agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void.
