In August 2021, I purchased a ********************* Stove from Goremans in ************, **. We purchased an extended warranty from CPS Warranty when we purchased the stove. About 3 months ago, the stove stopped working correctly. We contacted ******** who contacted CPS. We were advised the stove was out of the 1 year original warranty. ******** got permission from CPS to send out a certified repairman, who determined the stove had a catastrophic failure and would need to be replaced. He came two days to inspect it. This was on May 22, 2023. ******** advised they notified CPS of the report. However, as of June 8, 2023, we had not heard anything from CPS. On that date, I called CPS and they claimed they never received a the repair report. I made contact with ******** and they RESENT the original report. I spoke with ****** at CPS and she said they had all the information and we would have a decision in ***** hours. This didnt happen and I called CPS back to be advised that case worker ************, was now in management review and it would now take **** days for an answer. She has now ignored two emails asking for an update. CPS is playing games with the hopes we will forget about it. My family is without a basic necessity and CPS is trying to find a way out of our warranty CONTRACT. I could really use BBBs assistance. The claim number is *******.Business Response

We purchased a Bosch stainless steel counter depth French door 2 drawer refrigerator from a local appliance dealer on October 29, 2018 and at the same time we purchased a 5 year extended warranty with Consumer Priority Service. In September, 2022 we noticed that the refrigerator was not cooling. CPS was contacted. They set an appointment creation date of September 11, 2022. CPS claim number is *******. On October 22, 2022 the repair person sent by CPS determined that our refrigerator was not repairable. CPS then wanted an estimate from a Bosch authorized service provider. On November 11, 2022 a Bosch authorized service provider gave us an estimate of $689.38 for the repair. The repair man was unable to order the required part directly from Bosch so he ordered the part from a third party. CPS did approve the $689.38 estimate. On November 23, 2022 the same Bosch service provider came to replace the defective part but he was sent the wrong part. He informed us that the required part was not available from Bosch and CPS was notified of this.In April, 2023 the required part to repair our refrigerator became available. On June 1, 2023 a different Bosch authorized service provider came to our home as the first provider is no longer working.The second provider found additional parts were needed for the repair and provided us with a repair estimate of $1373.01. All parts for this repair are now available from Bosch. This estimate of $1373.01 was sent to CPS on June 1. CPS informed us on June 2 that they were unable to open the attachment of the estimate which we sent. On June 2 we resent the estimate in a different format. As of June 19, we have had no response despite email and phone messages to CPS. According to the warranty agreement, CPS will pay to repair our refrigerator as it has been deemed repairable. We want our refrigerator repaired per the warranty agreement for the estimate of $1373.01.Business Response

I bought a brand new GE refrigerator in April of 2022 with a warranty through Consumer Service Priority (CPS). Brand Name: GE Model Number: GFD28GYNFS Serial Number: ********** On May 10, 2023 (3 days before hosting my baby shower at my house) the fridge stopped worked. I filed a claim on May 10 at 8am with CPS. A tech came out on May 13 to identify that the problem was with the compressor and told us this was a known problem with the way this model fridge was made. This has also been confirmed with my neighbors as well. I also bought this exact fridge four years ago and had zero issues so I know they changed the way its made. The tech told us the soonest they could get someone out was May 29, which to me was absolutely unacceptable especially for having a warranty and for being 8 months pregnant. We called and escalated multiple times, asked for a replacement fridge or a sooner resolution only to be told that the parts were on backorder (obviously due to this known issue). The last communication I had was that the part would be in June 2 and I would be receiving a call then. If it wasnt fixed they would replace my fridge with a new one. Well June 2nd came and went and no one called me, answered my call or responded to my email. So here I am 9 months pregnant going on 1 month without a refrigerator when I paid for a warranty and a brand new fridge. Please help me get this resolved. Thank you *******Business Response

CPS is actively working to resolve the customer's claim as quickly as possible. While we would love to assist the customer in any and every way possible, ******************** cannot take responsibility for a design flaw in a product designed and sold by a separate company.
We will continue to communicate with the customer and a supervisor has been assigned to monitor and reach out to the customer directly to help resolve the matter.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:The warranty is meant to protect the consumer should the product fail within a the warranty time frame. CPS claiming that they are not responsible for a product failure is not acceptable and does not meet the needs of the warranty. The original claim was submitted over two months ago and is appalling that they have not resolved it in a timely manner. At this point I would like to be reimbursed for the warranty and will replace my own fridge.

I made a claim through the company's web portal on a dishwasher that was not functioning. I was told they could not find a repair person on the ********,** metro area and I would have to make the appointment myself and send CPS the estimate for repair. I did this and was told i would have to pay out of pocket for the service call but would be reimbursed. After the initial repair that i scheduled the repair technician was not able to correct the issue and was guided by the dishwasher washer manufacturer to try another part. I received another quote from the repair conpany and forwarded to cps warranty. They would not pay for the added part but offered a settlement. I had a question regarding the settlement amount and have not heard back. I have emailed and called multiple times and only got an email response when i mentioned i was going to place a complaint with the BBB. The email response said i denied the settlement amount to which i responed i did not but i had a question regaurding the amount.Customer Answer

I had purchased a drone and also an insurance thru cps to cover the drone. The drone broke so i had the insurance try to fix it but they keep saying because of the pandemic they were not able to fix it. But Ive been waiting for it and still they have not fix it. Im thinking since they cant fix it and Ive paid for insurance shouldnt they either just get me a new one or refund my money? Ive called them so many times I cant even count. If they cant fix it they should just just refund me the money I got the drone for. Otherwise if I knew cps wasnt going to do anything, I would have not even bought a drone in the first placeBusiness Response

Purchased a refrigerator 2/13/23 from appliance 4 less. made a claim 3/28/23 for several issues with the unit. Was asked to pay the ***** deductible, which I did and was sent an email 4/5/23 that there are no service providers in my area and that I would have to find a service provider, pay the diagnostic fee and submit an invoice to be reimbursed. Upon setting up the appointment with the service provider that I found, I was told by CPS that the service provider could not repair the unit because the party I hired does not work with third parties. I then sent an email back 4/5/23 asking on who would then repair the unit if they would not pay the service provider that I had hired to complete the diagnostics. As of yet I have received no response. This has been a jump through hoop after hoop situation and I just want my refrigerator repaired per their contract to do so.Business Response

We purchased a new ASKO Dishwasher from Mile High Appliances and added a 5 year replace or repair warranty from Consumer Priority Services on the unit. It is now year 3, and the unit has died due to a faulty control panel. It was reported and they instructed us to have a repairman diagnose the issue. The repair would cost just over $1,000. CPS chose to pay for the replacement, but then only offered $650 to cover the expense INCLUDING the $139 we had to pay out of pocket for the diagnosis. The cost of the replacement for the same unit is $1,499. While there has been multiple phone calls and "we will look into it," they have refused to cover what the warranty originally promised. We have tried to work with them, but we are now 6 weeks without a dishwasher and over one week of that time is just waiting for their responses.I do not believe they ever intended to honor their warranty and warn any consumers or dealers to NOT use their services. We will now attempt to collect in court, but it shouldn't have to be this way.Business Response

The customer purchased a product for $899 and a contract with a limit of liability that *** not exceed that amount. To quote the terms and conditions:
"Our liability is limited to the original price of the covered equipment. This agreement will be terminated at the point
total repair costs reach the lower of the original purchase price as indicated on your bill of sale or the current fair
market value of the covered item."CPS received this complaint WHILE ON THE ***** with the customer discussing this matter and looking to negotiate an amicable agreement. We exceeded current market value of the customer's covered item by $100 in an offer during that conversation, separately from rembursing him for incurred service costs as agreed upon (which was part of the customer's original request).
Lastly, the customer allegedly intends to pursue this matter in a court of law. As per the BBB's own bylaws, that would supercede any complaint submitted.
Consequently, we request erasure of this complaint for the following reasons:
1) No lack of communication with the customer - we were actively on the phone with the customer AT THE **** OF RECEIPT OF THIS COMPLAINT with the express purpose of discussing his request and negotiating in good faith.2) Customer is attempting to supercede his policy's terms and conditions based on nothing but his own assertion that a non-descript replacement product costs $1600.
3) Customer is indicating he will be addressing this on a legal platform which the BBB does not have purview over.

Hello, I purchased a TV from ******* on Nov 27th, 2022. CPS full accident coverage insurance was an option for hundreds more to fix or replace with an accident. The worst happened and 4 months later, I had to file a claim for a new TV. They offer $835 less than it would cost to replace. CPS offered $1047.99 as a cash offer. To repurchase the same TV is *******. They make a false claim to consumers to cover you if there is an accident. They are offering 60% of the replacement cost instead of what they promised. I want my TV replaced like I paid a lot for. I don't think they should be allowed to deceive consumers like this.Business Response
