  Our furnace started blowing cold air so we contacted On Point, We were told if we had a service provider we prefer to use, to forward their contact info. We sent a quote from Barlow Heating for the repair.
  Then Amanda with On Point said they called Barlow and they do not work with warranty companies and that we could use them and file for reimbursement. NEVER once were we told that only a portion of the repair would be covered or any conditions. She said just send an itemized invoice from Barlow and they would reimburse. We had already sent in the estimate so we figured it was approved.
  
  We sent in the invoice and on April 10th received a text that they had received it and it was under review. Ten days went by with no contact so I reached out and was told they will finish the final determination of the claim and I received a voice mail later that day that they will only reimburse $589.37.
  
  We sent the estimate to On Point before even paying the deductible to make sure things were covered beforehand. We are on a fixed income and couldn't even afford the deductible for nothing.
  
  We had to borrow money to pay Barlow and were expecting to be reimbursed the full amount of the estimate sent before and were told we could use Barlow. This is ridiculous that it is this hard to get what we are owed. We have all the text messages to show where they didn't say there were any conditions to the reimbursement.
  
  We demand reimbursement in full $1,326.

  An estimated invoice was requested on April 6th and was not received nor able to be reviewed before the work was completed. Our support team concluded we are only able to pay $589.37 as we do not pay for markup prices on parts according to the terms and conditions. We understand the customer is very upset and want to give them the best possible experience through our customer support center. Our team is waiting to pay the reimbursement of $589.37 to the customer.

  I am rejecting this response because this is absolutely not true. I have attached the text messages between myself and On Point when we first contacted them about the problem. You'll see on page 4 a copy of the estimate we received from Barlow after being told they were not a preferred provider. We were never told there were conditions, terms or that we would not be reimbursed for the full amount. We were told to go ahead and send the final invoice in when completed. 

  We demand to be reimbursed in full. 

  
  Sincerely,

  We understand the customer is very upset and we want to offer the best customer experience possible. Our records indicate that our team communicated to the customer that under their policy they are free to use their own Service Provider. It was also stated that if this route was chosen, our team would need an itemized estimate/invoice for services that are either going to be performed or were performed and it will be reviewed/processed according to the terms and conditions of their policy. As stated before, our support team concluded we are only able to reimburse $589.37, as we do not pay for markup prices on parts according to the terms and conditions. We would like to thank you for taking the time to voice your experience with OnPoint Warranty.

  Complaint: ********
  
  
  As you can see with the text messages submitted we were NEVER told that the full amount would not be reimbursed. How do you even figure that the parts have a mark up? Your representative saw the estimate before we even had it fixed and we tried to use one of your service providers and were told they wouldn't work with a warranty company. If we were told this we would have pushed for you to send one of your people but she didn't tell us there would be a problem or that the terms didn't allow for reimbursement in full. We request full reimbursement due to the fact your employee approved the use of Barlow after seeing the full estimate. 
  
  If not, we request binding arbitration.

  We purchased a recliner and purchased the extended warranty thru this company.
  I attempted to file a claim on 2/21/23 however the information on the paperwork didn't match any coverage information on the online claim form.
  I then attempted to call the company for 3 days. All 3 days I was on hold over 5 hours and requested a call back thru their IVR option. As of 3/22, I still have not received any call backs.
  I sent a request via their website to file a claim on 2/21 as well. Their auto response says I will be responded to in 3 business days. I got a response on 3/9 asking for a copy of the documentation. I sent it to them and got a 3 business day auto response message.
  On 3/20, I received an email advising what information I should be including on the claim request online. One of the items was nowhere on the documentation to be found.
  On 3/22, I attempted to file it, according to their instructions and got a notice stating that a claimant information could not be found and I still have not received a call back. I have sent yet another email to them telling them to file the claim for me and provide a claim#
  I need my chair fixed. This is unacceptable.
  Please have them open a claim to get a repair scheduled. If that cannot be done, then please have them request an exchange of chairs.

  On March 22,2022, I ordered the GE Profile Opal 2.0 Black Stainless Steel Nugget Ice macher (SKU 550-524); picked it up on 3/27/2022 from Crate and Barrel. On January 23,2024 the ice maker stopped working and I reached out to the warranty company. they sent a replacement unit (received on 2/27/2023) THAT IS NOT WHAT I ORDERED AND IT WAS REFUBRISHED (stainless steel instead of the black stainless steel) as soon as i realized this (same day as receipt), i contacted the warranty company to let them know that I paid MORE for the black unit and i want a black replacement. TO THIS DATE I AM BEING TOLD THAT I WILL HAVE TO SPEAK WITH MGMT BUT NOBODY HAS CALLED ME. I have called everyday since realizing that I do not have the unit that I paid for. Additionally, when I set up the replacement unit, it sounds like an old car whose engine is about to quit so I unplugged the unit (and yes I did tell them of the defective unit). Since my original unit was not even a year old, i would like a new black stainless steel unit or a full refund

  I purchased an ice maker GE Profile Opal 2.0. This I’ve maker has had a ton of issues and GE & OnPoint Warranty have failed me… i’m told they will send me a shipping label in a box for me to send back the machine however I have to give them $250. There is no guarantee they can repair the machine and most likely will have to use it as scraps and will give me back $125 possibly… This is very unfair. This machine was over $600 and I cannot believe this is happening! No one will help me…

  After reviewing *******'s ticket, we found her unit is not under warranty and our total cost to repair this unit is $250. If the unit is not repairable, we send $125 back to the customer. The other half covers shipping and diagnosis, which is why it is nonrefundable. Since the customer is not satisfied with this solution, we are willing to send a refurbished unit instead of providing a 50% refund. We apologize for the inconvenience.

  I contacted On Point warranty on January 23rd about a faulty Opal 2.0 unit. I informed them I had already performed all of their tests and provided an alternate email that I believe the until had been registered under. (charter.net) . January 24th I received a call and spoke to a rep in length who confirmed my issue and confirmed that I had performed the tests. She said they'd changed systems so she'd need a picture of the back of my until again, acknowledging that she had previously had it. The email came to charter and I replied immediately. I did not hear back. I emailed again Wednesday the 25th, Thursday the 26th and Friday the 27th. I am being ghosted. This until cost $600 and they are well aware there are known issues with them. This needs to be resolved. This is not acceptable. Also, having to put a $300 hold to get a new one is insane. No one has that amount nowadays.

  Our team is actively working with you. It appears there was a discrepancy between the two emails we had on file. We were able to process an advanced exchange for your unit, which requires a credit hold because we are sending a replacement before you send your broken unit back. The alternative would be to have a standard exchange - where we will send you a box to return the old unit before we send you the new unit. The standard exchange will work just fine if that is your preference. The ticket is currently being processed for a replacement unit.

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********* and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
  
  
  
  [There was no email discrepancy.  I tried contacting you from both and you initially responded to the second one, not me.  I'd like to keep this open until I get the unit because I have no faith in this company.  I did not get a reply until I went directly to GE Appliances who then contacted you and I finally got a call. This is not acceptable.]

  I purchased the ******* Washing Machine from ******** ******t in May 2022. In November 2022 I noticed a knocking sound in the washer during its operation. Consequently, I call ******* and they took me through a procedure to calibrate the washer drum. The Washer worked well until early January 2023, when the knocking sound returned. I immediately call ******* again as was provided with the number to OnPoint Warranty in order to initiate a service call.
  
  The technician arrived at my home yesterday, January 26th and informed me that the counterbalance on the washer was broken and not repairable. The following day I was informed by OnPoint Warranty that they would not honor the manufacturer's warranty because of "abuse and neglect".
  
  This is ridiculous claim! The ******* Washer was only used in a normal manner and was never abused or neglected. In fact, I call ******* on multiple occasions to discuss a service call and was told to calibrate the washer. It is apparent that Onpoint Warranty never intended to honor the warranty. The accusation of abuse and neglect is simply a ploy to breach the warranty contract.

  

  Business Response

  Date: 02/03/2023

  After review of this ticket, our support team concluded the state of the washer damage is not covered under the manufacturer's warranty. The counterweight appeared to be broken yet the customer continued use. Therefore, the drum collapsed on itself. This situation is classified as abuse by the customer and the manufacturer's warranty does not cover these incidents. We understand the customer is very upset and want to give them the best possible experience through our customer support center. So, our team is currently processing a buyout for this customer.

  I contacted warranty support for a leaking Opal 2.0 machine. I purchased the machine directly from GE Appliance online store. I provided all requested information and copies multiple times. OnPoint keeps replying with the same requests, as if each person that sees the reply I send is starting over. I finally made it to waiting for the replacement unit to be sent and have heard nothing back after multiple emails. I have attempted to call and email without any response. Extremely frustrating for such a big investment that is not working. I am attaching the email chain. I initially reached out a month ago. My unit is leaking so badly now that it cannot be used as it was damaging my kitchen. I want the replacement to be sent by overnight shipping and tracking information provided when completed.

  We advised this customer they would need to complete the required a credit hold to secure the return of the damaged/inoperable product to the repair facility. As of 1/11 the customer has now completed the credit hold. As a result, we will continue with replacement at this time.

  The customer will receive a new unit and the tracking for that is as follows: *************************************************************************************

  On October 11, 2022, I filed a warranty claim for an Opal Ice Maker I purchased a few months ago on ******. After performing a cleaning on the Ice Machine, I noted a pinhole leak was allowing water to leak out the back and also leak into the compartment within the Ice Maker. I provided the Model, Serial, Purchase Receipt and details of the warranty claim on October 11, 2022 and received a response from OnPoint Warranty Solutions on October 13, 2022, requesting photos and videos of the issue. I provided the requested photos the same day and received an email in reply on the procedures necessary to continue the warranty claim. The email outlined I would be charged a $300 hold to ensure I properly return the defective unit. At the end of the email, in bold text, they requested my shipping address to continue with the Advanced Exchange Process. I responded on October 15, 2022, at 9:30am with my shipping address. I receive no reply from OnPoint with the link to provide my credit card for the $300 hold. I replied on October 24, 2022, at 9:50am requesting an update on the status of my claim. I received no response. I replied a third time on October 29, 2022, at 9:30am with a request for the link to begin the warranty repair and providing my shipping address again. After multiple non-responses, I believe OnPoint is in breach of their obligations of the warranty claim.

  The company has sent me one email asking for information. Once the information was sent, radio silence. Completely unresponsive, and I follow-up daily. They refuse to respond and now I am without ice for my house and have no resolution so don't know if I have to just scrap the machine that is covered under warranty and buy a different one.

  I received my replacement on 7/*4/22. I set it up as directed. While cleaning it, the water would not run clear and continued to have pieces or what look like iron deposits and dirt. I continued the cleaning processes each day after work for a week with no success in getting clear water. The machine also came with dents and dirty/bent fins on the vents. I vacuumed the side which unfortunately does not remove all of the dirt/dust that has probably been there for a while.
  
  I sent my first email mail regarding the condition of the machine on 7/25/2022 stating I would like to submit a complaint. ******* immediately responded stating there was a delay in shipping and please remain patient but not address the reason stated in my email. I responded that I had received the machine and would like to submit a complaint.
  
  ****** responded 7/26/22 and requested the information on the back of the machine. He then emailed me the same cleaning tips I had bee preforming as well as checking it it makes ice or is having cooling problems. I responded 8/*/22 with more information and more cleaning updates along with pictures of the disgusting water/bleach/vinegar coming out when cleaning.
  
  I have not heard any responses at this time and have gone another 2 weeks without having a $500 ice machine still getting the same disgusting cleaning results.
