Continuing to focus on enhancing the mobile
customer experience
Assurant, Inc. (NYSE: AIZ), a leading global business services
company that supports, protects and connects major consumer
purchases, announced today a multiyear extension of its
long-standing partnership with T-Mobile to continue providing
comprehensive mobile device protection solutions.
Over the last ten years, the two companies have leveraged
innovation and agility to enhance the device ownership experience
for customers. Initially starting with trade-in and expanding to
device protection, the relationship has broadened to offer
additional value through upgrade and repair services, premium tech
support and on-device diagnostics.
Starting in October, T-Mobile’s device repair program will be
offered at Assurant’s nationwide network of nearly 500 Cell Phone
Repair (CPR) by Assurant locations.
“We’ve been privileged to partner with T-Mobile to offer
customers the broadest array of service and support options in the
industry. Together, we’ve introduced several market-leading
innovations, which revolutionized many aspects of the wireless
protection industry and significantly enhanced the customer
experience,” said Assurant President and CEO Keith Demmings. “We
look forward to continuing to evolve our products and services to
meet the everchanging needs of connected consumers.”
"T-Mobile customers deserve best-in-class experience and
unbeatable service — and that's what we'll continue to deliver when
they visit our T-Mobile stores," said Jon Freier, president of
T-Mobile Consumer Group. "When customers need the fast,
personalized device repairs they've come to expect from
Protection<360>, Assurant locations across the country will
be ready to take care of them!"
Assurant expects the impact of these changes, including costs to
support the transition from the current in-store setup to CPR
locations, to be neutral to operating results in 2022. Over the
long term, Assurant expects to continue to benefit from greater
scale across the suite of services provided to T-Mobile’s
customers.
