      I purchased a home warranty through this company 3 years ago which was initially a 12 month contract. After my first year was up I was going to cancel the services and the guy that I had spoken to at the time told me that my contract was up but that I could continue to pay monthly for the service if I wanted to keep it longer. During this call I was never advised that it would automatically auto renew every year. I filed a claim with them back in Dec 2021 because I was having issues with my heating and for weeks they couldn't get my claim assigned to a reliable contractor to come out. I windup getting the issue fixed myself and they gave me the run around when it came to getting reimbursed which they never did. I recently filed another claim with them over a month ago to have my central air looked at. Again they were unable to get my claim assigned to a reliable company. I called a couple of days ago to cancel the service and the guy came up with so many attempts to try and keep my business telling me that he would work on the claim, sign me up for their rewards program and anything else he could think of before placing me on hold. He came back to the line after about 20 mins only to tell me that I can't cancel their service because my contract auto renewed in May. I tried to explain to him that I've never gotten a phone call, an email, a physical copy of anything stating that I am still in a contract with this company. I told him that they are attempting to s**** me out of my money because I don't want to do business with them any longer. I also told them I would be filing a complaint with the BBB which he didn't seem to care about that either. I need to know how I can go about this because I don't want to give them any more money than I already have and want to be rid of their services.

      Complaint ***********

      Thank you for contacting us with the above referenced complaint. We treat each complaint with the utmost respect and use this feedback to better serve our valued customers.  Understandably there are two sides to every story and always look for a fair resolution between all parties.

      The consumer placed a claim for a heating system on 11/20/2021 stating there was inadequate heating. A participating vendor was assigned on 11/23/2021. The consumer contacted us on 11/30/2021 stating the vendor was not responding, so we advised the consumer we would get another vendor assigned but offered reimbursement to expedite service. Reimbursement is where the consumer contacts a local vendor to come out and diagnose the failure. The consumers vendor must contact us prior to any repairs to report the failure, parts & pricing. Once approved, a reimbursement check is sent to the consumer upon receiving a copy of the paid receipt. The consumers vendor reported the heat exchanger was cracked, the circuit board relay would not stay open and heating relay and thermostat were working intermittently.
