      We have thoroughly addressed this complaint, referring to the relevant sections of the policy that support our decision to deny coverage. Its important to note that all home service contracts include both covered and non-covered conditions.
      Garage Door Opener Claim
      The claim for the garage door opener was approved up to the CAP (Coverage Amount Provided) limit of $500.00, in accordance with the policy. If the consumer preferred an upgraded model, they could have informed the vendor and paid the difference to receive the unit of their choice.
      Plumbing Claim
      Although the plumbing issue was deemed a non-covered condition under the terms of the policy, we authorized a $450.00 goodwill payment to the participating vendor to assist with the repair.
      We apologize for any dissatisfaction the consumer has experienced, and we remain committed to assisting in finding a resolution.
      If the consumer would like to cancel the policy, they are welcome to do so under the Terms & Conditions by contacting us at **************.

      I purchased the platinum home warranty spending over $1200. My house was built in 2019 and I moved in, in 2024. As a recent widow, I wanted the Warranty for peace of mind. It has been a nightmare. I have filed two claims, one on 10/8 because my air conditioning went out. I live in Florida, so AC is important. I was told that they had 48 hours to assign a technician. After 48 hours I was told they couldn’t find anyone, authorized $200 for repair and told me to find my own technician and submit a claim. It is 10/29 and I’m still waiting for reimbursement. On 10/16 I filed a claim on my refrigerator and again waited 48 hours for someone to be assigned. That person never showed. They assigned someone else but I had to wait several days for them to show up on a Friday night. 10/28 my refrigerator is still not working. On 10/29 I received notification via email that my claim had been denied. I have had other warranties and have never had such a horrible experience. I talked to the Sr manager in the resolution department, Anthony who ended up telling me I was overacting and I was getting good service. I hope that call was recorded from 10/28. I’d like to cancel this warranty and get my money back but have been told this isn’t possible. Worst “warranty” ever.

We understand that there are always multiple perspectives, and we strive to reach a fair resolution for all parties involved.
      The consumer filed a claim for their air conditioning unit on 10/8/2024, reporting that the unit was not turning on. Due to limited availability of participating vendors and to avoid delays, we offered a reimbursement option. This process allows the consumer to contact a local vendor for diagnosis. The vendor then provides a diagnosis, along with details on parts and pricing before repairs. If determined to be a covered failure, a reimbursement check is sent once a copy of the paid receipt is received.
      The consumer’s vendor reported no mechanical failures, stating that the Freon level was correct. However, the vendor noted a significant amount of soot and microbial growth inside the unit and recommended a cleaning. Per the policy, routine maintenance—including cleaning—is a non-covered condition.
      VII. General Limitations of Liability Our Service Agreement specifies that we are not responsible for cosmetic repairs or routine maintenance. The Agreement covers only repairs or replacements resulting from mechanical failure due to ordinary wear and tear. Exclusions include issues related to lack of maintenance, corrosion, bacterial growth, and other non-mechanical factors.

      Complaint: ********



      I am rejecting this response because:

      Where I agree with the air conditioning decision I don’t feel they properly addressed my other claim regarding my refrigerator. The technician they sent out stated the compressor needed to be replaced again. The company rejected my claim saying the refrigerator is under warranty. My refrigerator is not under warranty and after having my own technician out, there was actually nothing wrong with the compressor but somehow the Freon was mysteriously gone after their technician looked at it. I will be filling a new claim for reimbursement for the Freon and sealant and if they accept the claim our issue will be resolved for now. I would warn the company to not use the technician they sent for my refrigerator again. He was very sketchy. If it is again rejected I’ll still have a problem.

      6 months ago I submitted a claim a claim for a broken washer. Service plus refused to have washer repaired and offered to give me $300.00 toward another washer. 3 months ago I filed a claim for an air condition not working and ServicePlus denied my claim stating that the ** unit was not covered, but offered to give me a GOOD FAITH settlement of $200.00 as I have been a loyal customer with a contract on 2 different homes. I have not received neither check and have contacted ServicePlus on several occasions and they promise to expedite the check for $300 immediately and would work toward issuing the check for $200.00 ASAP. It's been over a month since I last called and I still have not received either check. At the end of my contract in September I refused to renew my contract as I had become frustrated with ServicePlus and I had fulfilled my contract agreement and no longer wish to do business with them.

      Service Plus is my home warranty ins. for my house and lease homes and after servicing my central Heat and air conditioning several times they refused to come out on July 30th and said they would no longer service it unless I did repairs that they wanted me to do like have it cleaned out inside and clean the coils. So why should I pay extra money on another technicion so they can come out and service it later on.I told them the problem was that the company they sent out ,they wanted to do the job and charge me ******* dollars, when I said no they sent in false information on my unit. I want to get rid of this company and they say I'm under contract, which I never signed no contract with them .I think this company operates under false pretences and just exploits senor citizens money.

      The consumer filed a claim for an air conditioner on 7/30/2024, indicating the unit was not turning on and that the filter was filled with water. Upon inspection, the participating vendor reported that an airflow restriction was causing the unit to freeze. Additional findings included bacterial growth on the blower and cabinet, corrosion on the blower wheel and motor, and rust/corrosion on the outdoor unit coils. As outlined in the policy, this was determined to be a non-covered failure due to rust, corrosion, and bacterial growth.
      V. Coverage A. Air Conditioning System
      Covered: Mechanical parts and components of two ducted electric central air conditioning systems, including all components and parts for units below 13 SEER and/or R-22 equipment.
      Not Covered: Rusted/corroded coils, filters, filter driers, and various other parts and conditions as stated in the policy.

      Complaint: 22474268

      I am rejecting this response because: The $400 dollars they sent was money I paid because they wouldn't do their  job to fix it, I looked into this with other companys and they said they should have fixed the problem because for a 19 yr old unit all the wear and tear was normal, when I talked to them again and told them my research with other companys ,  they said we will send you something for the company I hired to fix it which was nothing compared to what I paid to the technition that took care of the proplem.And im still paying monthly for service that they won't fix, I am throwing money away monthly for service I'm not getting.This company needs to be looked into by the attorney general for fraud.

Service claim number ****** on 6/6/2024. I called in July August, September and October to question if the check had been issued and mailed and each time I was told no, but there was no reason. This is not the first time they have offered
      to pay on a service repair and did not come through with the monies. In June 2021 I placed a service claim number ******* for air conditioning repair.

      I spoke to a representative over the phone on June 24, 2024 regarding a service plan offer. He stated that I could sign up for a plan from 1 year to 3 1/2 years. The more years you sign up for the better discount you would get. Therefor he offered me a plan for $1,170 for 6 months at $195 a month until plan is paid off. Also, h stated that anytime I become unhappy with their service, I could cancel my plan at anytime a get back my money unused service.

      I filed a claim in late September or early October on my cooking range/stove, they told me that the service contract did not cover that part of the stove. Then I called back and told them I wanted to cancel my service plan, what the use of having it and it do not cover that part of service on my cooking range. Then they transfer me to a higher up person, I guess a supervisor, then I told the supervisor the same thing that I want to cancel my contract and that when he told me that I could not cancel my contract after I had already paid $695. Then I told him that is not what the sale person told me, he stated that I could cancel anytime if I was unhappy with my service. Then the supervisor asked me did a service company come out, I said no, they told me that part of the stove was not cover. Then he ask me if he could send someone to check it and I said yes but I am still going to cancel my contract. Then he told me that I would have to pay an additional $75 for the company coming out. Then I your sale person never mentioned that I would have to pay $75 for a service call. I told him the last company I had I never paid a service call. I just want to cancel my contract and bill me up to this date and give me my remaining money back. I did agree to let them send someone out again but service Plus paid for the service call and it just got fixed 2 weeks ago.

      The consumer placed
      a claim for an oven on 7/17/2024 stating the digital display was only showing
      part of the time, but everything else was working properly. The consumer was advised
      there was no mechanical failure and therefore based on the symptoms of the
      failure was not a covered condition. In an effort to assist we advised we could
      assign a vendor to diagnose the failure. The consumer contacted us to advise
      the vendor did not keep the scheduled appointment. In an effort to not delay
      service further we advised the consumer of reimbursement. Reimbursement is
      where the consumer contacts a local vendor to come out and diagnose the

      I am rejecting this response because: We received their $200 check today 11/6/24. This only settles part of my claim. They also promised to pay $100 to settle their claim #******. Also, I prepaid for 3 years of service, ( my bad ). We are starting the 2nd year of this commitment. I was promised that if they didn't perform as promised I would get my money back. I know this is probable a pipe dream but i would like to get some of this money back.

      I paid for 3 years of service since my husband passed away and I am a single mom and figured since I have no help that this would benefit me. Everytime I put in a claim it gets denied. First complaint was about furnace not working and was denied since it was too soon after started policy, second claim was plumbing issue and paid for technician to come out and that was also denied. Final complaint was about refrigerator not working and at first it was denied because we moved it. After I explained we had to borrow one to use while mine was getting repaired they sent same guy out that came for plumbing issue to fix it. First he said it was over 10 years old and was unaable to fix it and was denied. Had to keep calling and gave correct serial number to determine it was only 1 year old. The technician came out ordered wrong part so had to order different part. After they sent 3 wrong parts I finally ordered correct part myself which was the control board and put it on. Representative said submit receipt and they would refund me for part since they were not able to fix it. I submitted receipt now they are denying it because I did not hire a technician to put on. I called to cancel policy because this is not the service I paid for and they said no since I signed contract. I want to just cancel policy and get refund because they do not help, deny every claim, and are very rude when I call. I do not even want to use the service because I end up paying a deductible and then they deny it. I believe this company scams vulnerable people who really need help like I do. I tried to get help from them to resolve this and do not get anywhere. and they just give me a difficult time
