      I have a service agreement with Sears home warranty.(cinch home service) I called due to my dishwasher, not functioning. It is now over 13 appointments later and they still did not send a technician to fix my dishwasher. Each of these appointments I had to take days off from work to stay home all day because the appointment is from 8 AM to 5 PM And each of these appointments except for one were canceled and rescheduled. I want to inform you so that way other ****** will not pay for this home warranty each monthly for no service.when u need it. Every time I call I am told that there is no technicians in the area. In three months there's not a technician available. This is the second time the dishwasher broke first time they fixed it. It worked for 2 to 3 washes and broke again. I need one time that the service technician came. He ordered the exact same parts that was changed a few months ago and that not fix the problem. Now the part is sitting in my house for over a month and a half waiting for a technician to put in again. The warranty says if they cannot fix it they need to replace it if they have no technicians to fix it then they should be replacingit. It's not my fault that they have no technicians. I would never recommend this company to anyone.

      Dear BBB Customer Relations:

      We have completed the investigation of Ms. ******* complaint regarding her dissatisfaction with her Sears Home Warranty plan.

      In order to investigate and respond, we had to reach out to Cinch Home Services. In case Ms. ****** was unaware, her Sears Home Warranty is issued and administered by HomeSure Services, **** HomeSure of ************,HomeSure Protection of ****************, or HomeSure of **************,depending on the state she lives in. All of those variations though are subsidiaries of Cinch Home Services, and Cinch provides the customer support when any customer calls into the ********************** Home Warranty line. Since Ms. ******* complaint strictly involved the administration of her contract and we have no control over that, we reached out to Cinch so that they could explain their position regarding Ms. ******* complaint and any details of any resolution they provided. We received the following response from ******* on their Escalated Customer Support Team:  

      Ms.****** will proceed with the replacement offered.

      We apologize for any problems or frustrations that Ms. ****** may have experienced with Sears or with our business partners like Cinch Home Services. We do value our customers and strive for their complete satisfaction including a reasonable resolution of any complaints or problems whenever possible. If you have any further questions, you may contact me at **************************************************************************.

      I purchased a new Kenmore Refrigerator from Lowes on 1/23/2025 for $1,699.99and did not buy a extended repair policy from Lowes. The refrigerator stopped working on 5/1/25 and I scheduled a repair on 5/9/25. The technician identified a bad evaporator defrost/heater assembly and sensor was needed. Did not have these parts. Parts were ordered and only the sensor was available. After multiple weekly phone calls by me and multiple excuses by Kenmore, it was determined that this part is NLA no longer available and the repair order (***************) was cancelled. I no longer want to consider a replacement for a Kenmore Refrigerator that cant get critical replacement parts if needed. I only want to pursue a refund.We have lived without a working refrigerator for the past 43 days without any resolution. I am now forced to buy a known brand that I have confidence in. I have documentation of text messages an emails as well as sales receipts. Please let me know if you need any additional information..Thank you..

      I am trying to get Sears Home Services to repair both my washer and my dryer under a Master Protection Agreement. Sears Home Services has set up appointments (June 18 dryer; June 23 washer) as what they call Cash Collect, meaning I would have to pay $129.00 for each appointment. I have a Master Protection Agreement ***************. Sears Home Services does not deny that I have this agreement. They keep telling me that their computers will not allow them to show the appointments as Master Protection Agreement appointments (meaning that there would be no charge). When I call, as I have done multiple times, I am told that the computers wont allow them to make the appointments ones under the Master Protection Agreement. We are without the ability to do laundry now for several weeks. I have spoken with ***********************. They are the ones who tell me they cant fix it and that I should call back in 2 business days. But I have been told that same thing before and it did no good to call back.Kindly do what is needed to get these appointments showing as Master Protection Agreement appointments. My telephone is ************ (landline), ************ (cell).**** ******* ***************************************************

      I have been waiting over a month now for our washer to be repaired. We do have an appointment for July 15, but each technician who has come has found a problem the previous technician missed, and each time we have been given a new date several weeks in the future. I will be grateful if Transformco can ensure that the technician who comes July 15 can complete the repair. The ordered parts have arrived and are ready to be installed.

      Complaint: 23459735

      I am rejecting this response for the following reason. As Ms. ******** indicated would happen, a technician came on July 15 to install the two parts that had arrived for repair of our washer.However, he discovered that the previous technician had failed to detect a different problem, namely a broken control panel. This is the third time that a technician has come and has found a failure by a previous technician to detect a problem requiring repair. As result, we have been without a washer now for two months. The July 15 technician tried to order a control panel and found that it is not available. Sears now has sent me an e-mail saying that they are searching for a control panel and have scheduled an appointment for August 13 to complete the repair if they are successful in locating a control panel. The Sears notation is RsrchLlaPwr, and Sears gives the part number for the control panel as NPSC1. We are not happy that it is taking so long to complete the repair. We will consider our complaint resolved if Sears can either locate a control panel and complete the repair on August 13, or replace the washer.

      Sincerely,

It took me 45 minutes to get a live person on the phone, which was absolutely no help whatsoever. Give me no reason as to why the appointment was rescheduled.

      This issue is with Sears Home Protection Services. My husband signed up for the warranty in January 2024 to help with the cost of appliance repairs in our new house. They sent a service person for a dryer and refrigerator repair. The service tech repaired the dryer, and we ordered a part for the refrigerator. After a few months of no follow-up from the technician, we contacted Sears again. This time, the Sears representative suggested we find a technician and submit for reimbursement to Sears. Unfortunately, we ran into the same issue. We reached back out to Sears regarding our refrigerator and dishwasher, and after several phone calls and weeks of waiting, they sent another technician out in March. The technician said he needed authorization from Sears to make the repairs. I have contacted that technician several times and was told that Sears won't provide the authorization and continues to ask for more information. After 15 months of paying Sears $65/month, I am left with a barely functioning dryer and refrigerator, and a completely broken dishwasher. To add insult to injury, Sears charges an additional $100 service call fee for the technicians who have come out and do nothing. For the roughly $1200 I have paid Sears Home Protection, I could have easily replaced my refrigerator and/or the dryer/dishwasher. I am working with my bank to dispute the charges with Sears. I have also called three times to cancel the service, but they simply do not cancel it. In my book, it is a complete scam. They take your money and give you the runaround, hoping you will drop your subscription, and they can keep the money and not fix anything. Frankly, it is difficult to tell which business it is, and an exact match is not in your list. Emails from them have the following information: 2023 ***********************, *************************************************************. All rights reserved. Privacy Policy | CA Privacy Policy

      Dear BBB Customer Relations:

      We have completed the investigation of Ms. ******* complaint regarding the problems he encountered with the dishwasher and refrigerator repair and requests a refund.
       
      Our records indicate that Ms. ****** has an active Sears Protect Home Warranty on her dishwasher and refrigerator.  

      A technician was first dispatched to her home on January *******, at which time it was reported that the refrigerator has a bad damper not allowing the unit to cool correctly. The technician ordered the parts which were delivered and installed on February 1, 2024 and noted Unit checked out ok, working lit it should.

      Ms. ****** was provided an ASP2 claim for the refrigerator and the dishwasher on February 10, 2025 to go local and hire /have an alternate service provider repair the dishwasher and the refrigerator. 

      We forwarded Ms. ******* complaint to her warranty obligor Sears Protect Home Warranty to discuss her refund request for her warranty.  She was contacted by the assisting warranty agent on June 26, 2025 at 2.45pm.  Ms. ****** stated she would like the 2 deductibles refunded as no repair was done and she would like a refund for May and June monthly premiums. According to the assisting agent, a follow request was submitted to the Go Local team regarding the repairs.   A follow up call was made to Ms. ****** on today,July 8, 2025 at 2.00pm and she stated that she wants to continue with the repairs of her dishwasher and refrigerator.  A new ASP 2 claims number ****** & ****** have been created.  A request was sent to the Go Local team to see if we can get the same providers who diagnose the issue before to repair both units.

      Ms. ****** will be contacted by the assisting warranty agent Roadian for repair resolve for the dishwasher and refrigerator and any issues regarding her refund request.

       We apologize for any problems or frustrations that Ms. ****** may have experienced. We appreciate the opportunity to address this issue.

      In November 2024 I ordered a new Kenmore dishwasher from Lowes. When it was delivered, the installer declined to bring it in the house as it was severely damaged & the door would not open. I re-ordered the dishwasher & a new machine was delivered January 2, 2025. The replacement dishwasher has never worked correctly. A repairman from ******* indicated the motherboard needed to be replaced. (Only one wash cycle will work & the water does not heat or dry the dishes & in addition the upper washer arm has fallen off). This has been nothing but frustration.an appointment for repair would be scheduled & cancelled by *******. Numerous times I was told we regret to inform you that due to unforeseen circumstances a technician is not available today. Or, I was told that the parts needed were not available and it was undetermined when they would be available. Over and over again since January this has been happening. I have used Kenmore appliances in the past, bit I am very disappointed not only in the quality of the dishwasher, but in the response of ***************. It is not reasonable for the situation to have not been resolved in six months. It should not take this long to either repair the dishwasher or issue a refund. On May 20 I was told that I would be refunded the price of the dishwasher ($475.36). To date, I have not received any reimbursement. I was assured that I would have the check within the next few days. Once again, ******* has failed me. I would like Kenmore to do as they promised and issue a refund check in the amount of $475.36 to cover the cost of the dishwasher.

      Service call on Home Warranty Clothes Washer 2/27/2025 Return call to receive and install parts March 27 to get washer functional ************ Calls made and cancelled due to not receiving parts over March_April_June One more postponement today from June 16 to June 20 It has been 14 weeks and washer not repaired (or replaced). Once again they are saying parts will arrive this time. I think we have gone well beyond reasonable time to fix or replace washer. It is hard for me to believe parts not available 14 weeks but will be available in 15 weeks. My opinion is that part is not available and company does not want to spend money to replace washer. I have been paying on the warranty program monthly for at least ten years.

      Dear BBB Customer Relations:

      We have completed the investigation of Mr. ***** complaint regarding his dissatisfaction with the way his claim has been handled under his Sears Home Warranty plan.

      In order to investigate and respond, we had to reach out to Cinch Home Services. In case Mr. **** was unaware, his Sears Home Warranty is issued and administered by HomeSure Services, **** ************************, HomeSure Protection of ***************, or HomeSure of **************, depending on the state he lives in. All of those variations though are subsidiaries of Cinch Home Services, and Cinch provides the customer support when any customer calls into the ********************** Home Warranty line. Since Mr. ***** complaint strictly involved the administration of his contract and we have no control over that, we reached out to Cinch so that they could explain their position regarding Mr. ***** complaint and any details of any resolution they provided. We received the following response from ***** on their Escalated Customer Support Team: 

      I approved a replacement and included disposal of $26.00 as a customer service gesture due to the delay. I called Mr. **** (ok to record) and informed him of his replacement options and he will check his email and review options with Mrs. **** and he will call me back with his decision. He later accepted the claims credit.

      We apologize for any problems or frustrations that Mr. **** may have experienced with Sears or with our business partners like Cinch Home Services. We do value our customers and strive for their complete satisfaction including a reasonable resolution of any complaints or problems whenever possible.  If you have any further questions, you may contact me at **************************************************************************.

      Purchased 3-year Master Protection Agrmt 4/20/2024 from Sears Home Svcs (Transformco) for $719.15 which begins 2025. REQUESTING A REFUND OF THIS AMOUNT since I didn't receive nor did you honor agrmt by providing maintenance to my refrigerator. I made 2 confirmed appointments (5/2 and 6/9) and both were cancelled by you. 5/2 appointment (appt) time was 8:00 to 12:00 and received text at 11:33 cancelling and 6/9 appt time 8:00 to 5:00 and received text at 12:29 cancelling. I have reschedule for 6/30; however, I'll be cancelling this appt since I haven't received a confirmation. This process have elevated my blood pressure and I believe I've spent enough time and energy by having to chase AI's, getting customer service, etc. I CAN DO WITHOUT ALL THIS STRESS!Contract No. **************** I'll may compose a letter with above info and send to Trillilum Blvd, Ste B120 and as mention above will cancel 6/30 appointment. This is whole situation is just too stressful for a "senior."
