The week of 2/7/25 I was calling looking for estimates of home warranties. I called ************ & talked to a **** I told her I was only looking for amounts, she asked me for my routing number & account number to lock in the amount as there was a discount.. I reluctantly gave them to her & said "Nothing is going to be charged correct?" She said "Correct." She was going to call 2/7/25 to see what I wanted to do. She never called. On 2/10/25 they charged my account. Because there was just over $6.00 in the account I was charged a return fee of $35.00, which kept it in overdrawn status.. Also because I am not working right now there was 2 $7.00 charges for continued overdraft. On 2/17/25 I called ARW & talked to a *** explained that with them charging it without my consent it was now overdrawn & I would like them to refund the overdraft charges of $35.00. They said they would have to listen to the recording. On 2/21/25 I called & talked to a *** & let her know that there was also 2 $7.00 charges so it is a total of $49.00. She said that I would have to send a copy of the *************** would escalate it. I got a copy from my bank & sent it that same day to *************************************************************** 2/26/25 a *** called & said that the payment was returned. I explained that it was not to be done in the first place. I than asked her about the $49.00. She put me on hold & came back & said they were not going to refund cause the account was never charged. I said if you look at the paper it was charged on the 10 & returned on the 11. She still said they were not going to refund it. I asked to talk to a **************** put me on hold for a few min. came back & said that she would call me back within the hour. I waited longer than the hour & called them back. Said I wanted a supervisor & talked to ********** said that my number was on a DNC list so she could not get ahold of me. I told her I didn't do it.

Thank you for reaching out regarding your concern, *****.
We have thoroughly reviewed your account and the transaction in question.
As outlined in the attached documentation, we attempted to process the payment on February 7, 2025; however, it was returned the same day due to insufficient funds. Because the payment did not successfully go through, no funds were withdrawn by us.
Additionally, our system marks returned payments due to insufficient funds (NSF) as "refunds," though this does not indicate that a successful charge ever occurred. This is a system labeling limitation and does not reflect an actual withdrawal from your account. Any overdraft fees applied were a result of your banks policies and not due to a successful charge from our end.
We understand that unexpected fees can be frustrating and recommend reaching out to your bank directly for further clarification or resolution regarding those charges.
Regards,
ARW Home

I am rejecting this response because:I do not think that the company thoroughly reviewed the account because I told the representative that I was only looking for estimates. I asked her if anything would be charged and she told me NO. If this was true than I would not have gotten any of the fees charged to my account.
If you look at all the pages it shows:
On the attachment of (2025-02-26_121641) - it shows that I had $6.23 left in my account after the last thing was taken out until the company processed the payment that was not supposed to be processed in the first place. After this was done I was NEGATIVE $51.76 on 2/10/2025.
On the attachment of (ARW17382747144(1).pdf), it is showing "TRANSACTION RESPONSE APPROVED".
On the attachment of (ARW173827471444_NSF2) it is showing under ELECTRONIC DEBITS it says 2/10/25 AMERICANRESIDENT, If you look under ALL CREDIT ACTIVITY it is saying RETURN CHECK OR ITEM AMERICANRESIDENT **********.
If their system marks returned payments due to insufficient funds (NSF) as "refunds," than why on the other page does it say APPROVED?
Yes, unexpected fees can be frustrating , BUT...... if it would not have been sent through in the first place like I was told than I would not have gotten any fees.

We reviewed your account and the documentation you provided. We understand your frustration regarding the fees incurred.
After a thorough review, and as we previously stated, we found that the charges were not processed due to insufficient funds in your account at the time of the transaction. As a result, no funds were collected, and there is nothing for us to refund.
We recommend that you contact your bank directly for further assistance in resolving this matter.Respectfully,

I have been dealing ARW for years. I pay ****** with promise of fixing my appliancs or replace. I filed a claim with them 10 days ago. I have called 2 X today and was told that I could except a buyout $625,00. I was informed that the cost of the furnace exceeded what i was covered under. I was told when I bought this policy that it would cover the cost of repair or replacement. I do not find this acceptable of having to accept a buyout and not having the furnace replaced. As of the writing of this letter I have no heat in my house and they could care less. I od not find this business acceptable. I also tried to file a claim sometime ago and was told that I did not have an account with them and could not talk to anyone until the following Monday.

Dear ***** M ********,
Thank you for contacting us and for being a valued customer of ********************** for many years. We understand your frustration and apologize for any inconvenience you have experienced.
We would like to clarify that your plan documents, which have been available to you, state that items are repaired or replaced up to the limit of liability. In this case, the cost of replacing your furnace exceeded this limit, resulting in a buyout offer of $651.00. The terms of your plan were adhered to, and you can verify this by looking over your plan documents available in the customer portal.
If you prefer, we can refund the trade service fee, which was $125.00. However, please remember that the buyout will become null and void, as a trade service fee must be paid to open a claim according to the terms and conditions.
We understand this is not the outcome you hoped for and regret any discomfort this situation has caused you. We are committed to helping you within the scope of your plan's terms.
If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please feel free to call us at **************, option 3.
Thank you.

Upon reviewing the technician's findings, it was determined that the issue with your refrigerator not cooling was due to the compressor not receiving the necessary voltage. This was caused by a mice infestation, which falls outside the coverage terms of your plan.
We recommend you address the mice infestation to prevent further appliance damage.
No refund is due per the terms of your plan. If you need any more help, don't hesitate to contact our customer service team at **************, option 3.

On 1/2/24 (11 months ago) my wife and I signed up for home warranty service. (I think it was under my wife's name: ***** Gujrati.) Anyway, we wish to discontinue - i.e., we do NOT wish to renew. Yesterday (12/2/24) ARW attempted to charge our credit card, which ********** (card isuer) notified us of potential fraud. I contacted ARW to cancel. I was informed if I cancel today, there's a $50 cancellation fee. I said I do not want to terminate early; what I want is to NOT renew on 1/2/25 for $570 for 1 year. I was told that I need to call them within 3 days before 1/2/25 in order to avoid automatic charge to our ***** credit card. This is not acceptable to me: to have to remember to cancel. I want to terminate all business transactions with ARW with ABSOLUTELY NO future credit card charges.Business Response

I mistakenly called ARW Home Warranty, thinking it was the home warranty I use, AHS Home warranty. I spoke w/the representative named "*****". I explained to him how I had missed the last month's payment for both my homes, and I wanted to make the payment. So, instead of him telling me that I had the wrong company, he connivingly started accounts on my houses w/ARW Home. Afterwards, during the conversation, I realized this was not the right company, I told him to cancel the contracts because I thought I was on the phone w/AHS Home Warranty and not ARW Home Warranty. I told him I already have my homes on warranties with another company. He said "well we are a better company and are cheaper." I told him that I did not care to please cancel what he had done. Somehow, the phone line disconnected and I had to call back. I was kept on hold and each person I talked with they kept giving me the "run around". Then I finally spoke w/***** again and he kept trying to argue with me about keeping the account open and that I would be better off with them. I told him that is not the point...and I did not want to be with a company that does not have integrity. ***** knew I had the wrong company but he continued as if I had. He conned me and refused to cancel the account. In addition, the company has taken money out of my account after I repeatedly told them to cancel the accounts.Business Response

Thank you for reaching out regarding your heat claim, ***. We understand your concern and appreciate the opportunity to clarify the situation.
Upon reviewing your account, we see you purchased the Kitchen Plus plan. As outlined in the attached declaration of coverage page, this plan specifically covers kitchen appliances and does not include central heating or air conditioning. Therefore, the claim denial on 9/5/24 for your heating system is in accordance with the terms of your plan.
If you are interested in upgrading to a plan that offers broader coverage, including central heating, please contact our customer service team. They will be happy to assist you with finding a plan that better suits your needs.

I am writing to file a formal complaint against ARW Home, a home appliance warranty company, regarding their unethical and dishonest practices that have caused significant financial and emotional distress to my elderly parents, ***** (81 years old) and ****** ******* (75 years old). They are on a fixed income and paid over $600 for a one-year warranty plan, only to have their claim for a replacement refrigerator wrongfully denied.The following outlines the issues we have faced:Delayed and ******************* When the refrigerator stopped working, ARW arranged for a repair technician who could not schedule a visit for three weeks. After repeated complaints, we were advised to find our own service provider. We paid ******, a local repair company, a non-refundable $150 service fee. ****** determined that the refrigerator required two parts for repair (the ice maker and water dispenser), but these parts were no longer manufactured. They advised us to purchase a new refrigerator.Failure to Reimburse: We purchased a new refrigerator from Lowes and submitted all required documentation to ARW, including the TECKNO service report, proof that parts were unavailable, and the receipt for the new refrigerator. ARW repeatedly claimed they did not receive the paperwork, prompting us to resend it multiple times. Despite our persistence, ARW ultimately denied the claim, citing a power surge as the cause of the damage.False Statements and Lack of Accountability: ARW stated that TECKNO technician ***** attributed the issue to a power surge. However, ***** categorically denies making this statement and confirmed that there was no evidence of a power surge. When confronted, ARW claimed they would review recorded phone calls but failed to follow through. This misrepresentation is a blatant attempt to avoid honoring their obligations.Business Response

*******, thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention. We would like to address your complaint directly.
The refrigerator claim was denied based on our Terms and Conditions (T&Cs) Section D, Numbers 1e and 12, which pertain to power surges, as previously explained. In your email dated 11/19/24, you mentioned: "We hired someone to fix it they told us the part failed. No one indicated why the part failed but what happened was after a power outage in ******* when the power was restored, the refrigerator never turned on again."
On 11/19/24 at 1:54 PM, a claims manager contacted the service provider (**) on a recorded line. The SP's dispatcher noted that there were several storms in the area when you called for the repair, suggesting a possible power surge as the cause. These comments align with your email, supporting the claim denial.
We take allegations of false statements seriously.
We understand the impact this situation has had on ***** and ****** *******. While we must adhere to our T&Cs, the claim is denied and will remain denied. Please contact our customer service team directly for further assistance.

Hello Ms. ****************** understand your frustration and appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns.
After a thorough review of your claim and the supporting documentation, we regret to inform you that our decision to deny the claim remains unchanged. As previously communicated, the denial was based on evidence of pest infestation, which is explicitly excluded under the terms and conditions of your plan.
The pictures submitted by both you and our technician clearly show the same background, confirming that the issue was indeed present in your home. According to our plan's terms and conditions, under section D, standard exclusions include:
D. THE FOLLOWING ARE CONSIDERED STANDARD EXCLUSIONS: Any failure that affects the proper operation of a Covered Product caused by any of the following: b. pet damage, pest infestation.
We have included the pictures you provided as well as those from the technician which are location and time stamped as you were previously advised to show that they were taken in the same location. Unfortunately, as pest infestation is a standard exclusion, we are unable to approve your claim.We understand this is not the outcome you were hoping for. However, as previously stated, the terms and conditions have been followed, and the evidence you provided overwhelmingly supports the findings.

Sir/ ***** look at the ridges in the molding and did he remove the quarter round from around the floor before he took pictures and did he dust.behind the washer.

You see the design in the molding is not the same at all. Maybe we need to have a hearing so sometime can see the picture. Because the moulding is definitely different and plus it shows no quater round at the bottom of his picture around the moulding. This is not fair for the technician to get away with this. And no I'm not satisfied because I paid you all for a service and I'm not being treated fairly is my opinion. At least give me all my money back. I've had different technician to come out to my house sent by you guys and why all of a sudden I now have a pest infestation. . This is so wrong on so many levels. And it's really bad to let an employee do this to consumers.. and then they are not professional to take a screenshot of the message that they posted under my review to send to my phone personally.Customer Answer

Please get the technician to send you the picture and details like I did in this picture that I'm just using for an example.
