Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. It is CPSs top priority to make sure every inquiry is responded to and settled amicably.
As per the customer's complaint, the part for this item has been discontinued by its manufacturer for their own reasons. As per the terms of the CPS contract, we are not liable for inability to complete repairs due to lack of service options. As a result, we are unable to provide any further resolution than the refund of the full, paid premium as dictated by the policy terms.As such, we request this complaint be considered resolved. The customer has received their due as per the policy terms.

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:[Your Answer Here]
Unfortunately I was not provided with the information of the contract of the warranty. I would like to have my warranty agreement sent to me, to see where exactly in my warranty it sais, if the product cannot be fixed due to lack of parts the warranty is voided.
You're company said if a product cannot be fixed then it will be replaced. Well, it cannot be fixed. Not having the parts to be able to fix it shouldn't be a loop hole for my product not to be replaced. It's only a year old.
Furthermore, I don't believe you did everything you could to find the part. You don't know who manufactures it!
I did my homework and found the company and they have simular couches still available, which why can't you see if the one of their parts can be interchangeable with my product?
I believe there's more that can be done to correct this issue!
In order for the BBB to appropriately process your response, you MUST answer the question above.

CPS will gladly forward the terms of the policy to the customer and remains open to addressing this matter directly via email or phone call with the customer. This is an open dialog from ********************'s perspective and the customer's lack of response to our direct communication attempts since their claim denial would suggest the customer is attempting to leverage the ******************** as a tool to change our denial despite our terms clearly outlining the basis of our decision.
We request this complaint be closed; CPS will be providing the customer an additional copy of their policy terms for review and will be more than happy to address the customer's concerns via the appropriate internal escalation channels.Initial Complaint

I purchased a 10-year warranty for my ******** range. The oven does not work at all, and I have tried for the past three months to obtain the part that is needed to fix the oven. Every time I contact CPS I get a run around. Typically I am told a manager will call me back within 48 hours and if I dont hear back, I should call again. When I call back, the same story was given to me repeatedly.Finally I was notified by CPS that my request was approved; however, I was told the part is on back order and will not be shipped to my home until sometime after September 15. To verify this false information, I called the manufacturer and found out the part is indeed available right now and the only hold up is CPS has not provided a credit card for the $300 part. The manufacturer emailed CPS regarding this and copied me on the email. No one is responding to the manufacturers email or to my voice messages or email.Business Response

Upon review, it seems this customer has a ******* policy covering the major component of the item. This is a parts-only warranty that does not cover labor nor provides a service option to be assigned by CPS. The customer would be responsible for hiring a servicer and providing an estimate showing the covered part as a needed component in order to qualify for reimbursement of the part costs.
At the time of writing, the timeline is as follows:4/14/22 - Customer filed a claim with ******************** under this 10-year Major Appliance Component (MAC10) plan and submitted an estimate detailing the need for an ************************* On the item in question, the covered part would be the spark/ignition module. As such, the claim was denied due to a non-covered item.
5/6/2022 - Customer follows up after nearly a month and advises that the authorized service provider they contracted with made a mistake and meant that the ************* mentioned is actually meant to be a Spark Module, which is the covered part. CPS logged their assertion and proceeded to follow up on this claim directly with the *** for verification, a standard protocol in a case of mistaken identity where a servicer is not part of the CPS network.
5/25/2022 - Customer followed up with ******************** providing an amended estimate of repair from *** ********* (the authorized service provider) describing an "electronic control repair" with a "Spark Module" outlined under parts. While this does not suffice for *** verification, lacking follow up from the *** to our initial inquiry CPS accepted this for the sake of giving the customer the benefit of the doubt.
6/14/2022 - The customer followed up on the matter to see where we were with the review. Due to the discrepancies up to this point, the estimate was not reviewed properly by CPS due to human error. This was outlined to the customer and rectified on the spot, and the amended estimate was now under review for approval.6/15/2022 - During the review, it was noted that the provided estimate did not include a parts and labor breakdown, but instead attempted to assess the full cost of the repair as a "part cost". Assuming error instead of attempted fraud, CPS followed up with the *** to verify the cost and availability of this part in order to provide the customer an amended approval with supporting information.
6/28/2022 - After follow up with the ***, the cost assessed by *** ********* for this repair was determined to broken down as $300 for labor, which is not covered, and over $500 for the part. The *** indicated this pricing was incorrect and the part was meant to be available for $230. CPS regularly approves service center markups within reason, but a markup of over 100% is not something we would approve under most circumstances. In this case, due to this outlandish markup and the already dubious nature of the provided estimate from an out-of-network provider who refused to provide a part breakdown directly until pressured, CPS opted to attempt to order the part directly from the *** as the servicer would have had to do via their own distributor.6/29/2022 - As the part was ordered via the *** to be shipped directly to the customer, ******************** did not approve a reimbursement for any parts cost as it was paid directly to the manufacturer. Customer was notified.
6/30/2022 - Customer replied to ******************** consenting to having the part shipped to them. Order was pushed through at this point.7/8/2022 - Customer requested tracking information. Request was relayed to the *** to be forwarded to the customer once available.
7/11/2022 - Customer notified ******************** that tracking had not been provided. CPS again requested *** release tracking information for provision to customer.
7/15-7/25/2022 - Customer followed up several times prompting subsequent follow up requests for the tracking information/order status from the *** who had ceased responding at this point.
8/2 - *** was contacted again as part of a routine follow up on the customer's request for information as relayed to them by CPS. At this point CPS was notified part is on backorder until 9/15/2022. Customer informed and understood, agreed to wait.
8/8 - CPS followed up on the backordered part to check if it may have become available early. It did not and CPS contacted the customer accordingly. Customer forwarded communication from the *** that the part was available, but upon follow up with the *** they once more confirmed the part was on backorder despite the communication the customer provided.8/11 - Despite the original backorder date being agreed to and not yet reached, the customer filed a complaint with the ********************.
Based on the above timeline, CPS has gone above and beyond to attempt to rectify a situation in which our only responsibility is reimbursement of a part. We procured and ordered the part instead of bringing the validity of the estimate into question with the customer, a good-faith effort to resolve the issue with as little inconvenience to the customer as possible. The backordered part is outside of CPS' control and can be verified with the *** by calling them. More importantly, lack of parts are not covered by the policy and CPS is not liable for such an occurrence. We believe, based on the timeline presented, that it's evident CPS is not only corresponding with the customer directly but going above our stated obligation to satisfy the customer's claim and broker the situation for them. We will continue to follow up with both the *** and customer directly to attempt to reach the most beneficial resolution for the customer, but maintain our liability is limited to the obligation outlined in the customer's terms - any further concessions or considerations are purely a courtesy and provided at CPS's sole discretion.
As such, we request closure of this complaint and request the customer continue to correspond directly with us as we continue to attempt a resolution to their claim.Initial Complaint

Hi I was continued to be solicited to extend the warranty on my appliances by an agent of CPS with the name "***************************" with his email address **************************************** in the email and on the phone they promised 100% parts and Labor, on Feb 1st i ended up paying $430.57,I filed a claim on 2 appliances in mid Feb (Claim # ******* - and # *******), i was shocked to be told that i need to pay a deductible (before they even come down to inspect it) for claim # ******* i was asked $95 and for ****** i was asked ******, i hesitated to pay it since i was promised 100% parts and labor, so I pushed it till May, when I paid the deductibles. Claim # *** they fixed the problem, but claim # ***, they claimed its too expensive to fix it, they will pay me only the current value which in their estimate is ****** 1) i wasn't told about the deductible, only the opposite (see the attached email.)2) they have to either fix the product or replace it, under what right do they determine they will only pay me the current value.3) they charge a deductable of $95, then they only pay the current value of $279 , basicly they only pay me $184.4) to this date they didn't pay me that promised $******Business Response

Based on the customer's complaint, ******************** stands by the amount provided per our limit of liability. The customer is factoring in a ********************** call fee agreed upon by purchase and participation of the plan as per the contract's Terms of Service. As such, while we understand the customer's position and feelings that he is only being paid the difference, the fact remains that the two amounts he has mentioned are not only separate transactions but fully in line with our stated Limit of Liability clause in our Terms.
The customer has omitted the fact that those terms also outline the cost of claims as being included in our limit of liability. The amount referenced by the customer is the difference between what was spent on repairs and the remaining difference between that limit of liability - in short, CPS has paid out the $279.63 in addition to the cost of repairs totaling over $500. The customer's limit of liability if $760.
Based on this additional, omitted information, along with the fact that this is within the scope of the Limit of Liability as governed by our ***, as well as the customer's misrepresentation by submitting this claim despite the fact that the *** does not allow further compensation, CPS requests closure of this complaint pending any additional evidence to the contrary.

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:[Your Answer Here]
1) When I purchased the service, I wasnt shown any Terms of Service, that I needed to agree on, I was shown the email that was attached, thats states 100% labor and parts, and this is what I purchased.
2)Even by their TOS, Im not factoring in a Service Call fee, the $95.00 was a deductible (see the attached email.) A deductible can only be when you do repairs. (Sharing of the expenses).
3)CPS is mixing up something here, NOTHING was repaired on this unit, they service men came about June 1st, said first its repairable, but he needed some parts which he didnt have with him, when he came back at a later date he said that he cant repair it, I was then offered the $279.63. I dont know where they spent over $500 for repairs. (Maybe the service men billed for repairs they didnt provide).
4) And to this date I havent received any money from them even the $279.63.In order for the BBB to appropriately process your response, you MUST answer the question above.

The email quoted does not contain a payment link, it is an offer to call our sales representative in order to discuss the policy, which is what happened. Policy terms are available at cya.insure/whats-covered and are linked alongside the order confirmation.
This is a conversation we are happy to continue directly with the customer, but the ******************** is neither a governmental agency or a mediator/court of law.

1) they agree that the email is deceptive, their argument is, it was only a marketing tool to make me call them, and at that point they will tell me the truth, and give me the terms of the policy, but that didn't happen, they did both they sent me emails and they called me many many times, (I didn't initiate any call) and I was told on the phone the same thing that's on the email, at no time was I offered to review the terms of the policy, only after giving them my CC over the phone, i received an email confirming my payment, with a link to open an account and a link to the terms of service, (which I didn't review at that time, I couldn't imagine that I was told differently in an email and on the phone, then what it was on the Terms of service)
2) they keep on writing they want to negotiate with me on the phone, the last time we called them about it, (of course after several time calling and not getting an answer - and before making this claim) they told us there is nothing they can do for us etc. if they wish to negotiate, my phone is open and they can call us any time

This is a warranty problem. This company I purchased a extended warranty for my refrigerator. The ice maker stopped working. Had it evaluated by a repair technician and was told that the wires at the base of the door were sheared off. He said the from past experience with CPS that they would not cover this repair. He would put the claim in and see what happens. The manager from the repair company called CPS and was told that they would contact me on Tuesday or later. The Monday before I received a call from CPS. Not recognizing the number I let it go into voice mail. After the call was done I listened to my voice mail and immediately called the number back. Was on a music hold for 7 minutes then it went into Asha;s voice mail saying that she would return my call. Still waiting for the return call. I called 2 more times, 7/27/22 and 8/1/22 with no results. I paid good money for the extended warranty and want my freezer door repaired. Dont want a refund of the warranty as the repair man said they would offer.Business Response

I spoke with a representative/owner of the warranty department who said he would resolve this but said if I made a complaint he would delay the process of a resolution. But unfortunately for him, I had already sent it in. I argued with him that I have 3 other 50 inch televisions in my home and they ALL still work and we're purchased years before purchasing the unit from TVs and Less and getting the warranty. Which when sold to me, I was told it covered anything! He argued with me and spoke down to me stating anyone can promise that. It's not his problem that my house is infested with roaches.i asked for replacement but store refused. Told me it was the warranty company who is reliable. I asked for price of warranty and was told no. This company did not make any clauses clear or obvious to me as a client. And talked to me very disrespectfully.

In 2016, I purchased a ******* range from Queen ********* for $2699.00 along with a 6 year extended warranty from CPS for $169.95. In November 2021, the oven started to malfunction. It did not bake properly any longer with cookies coming out raw and bread flopping. It had up until that point worked fine. In January 2022, I called CPS for a warranty repair and since then there have been no less than 7 repair appointments and 3 replacements of the oven control board that took place between February 2022 and June 2022. My oven still does not work properly, although the service engineers say that the system works as designed. It cannot possibly be because my baked goods continue not to bake correctly. And they did prior to November 2021. At this point I asked for what I thought I purchased with the warranty - my money back. I am getting radio silence on this issue. I gave them numerous opportunities to repair the oven. I hope that you can help.***********************Business Response

Claim # ******* I purchased a Jenn Aire wall oven on 5/16/18. The oven has had numerous issues. I filed a warranty claim on April 25, 2022 for a broken control panel The claim was approved however, I have been waiting for delivery of the replacement part with an inoperable oven for almost 3 months now. I have had many telephone conversations with CPS and they have consistently pushed back every step of the way. They advised that I should continue to wait for deilvery of the replacement part even though the waiting could go on indefinitely. Some of the representatives that I have spoken at CPS have not only been unwilling to resolve the claim to my satisfaction, but, they have also been very rude and unprofessional. They have offered to refund the cost of my warrantly which is unsatisfactory and still leaves me without a working oven. I cannot be expected to wait indefinitely for a part to arrive with no working oven in our house since April 2022. All I am asking is for a replacement oven of like kind and quality to the oven that was purchased. This provision is stated in the terms of the warranted that was issued. This issue and pending claim needs to be resolved.Business Response

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:As I have repeatedly pointed out to CPS, we have been without an oven since April. We cannot be expected to wait indefinitely for a part to come in from the distributor.
We have waited over 3 months. The terms of the warranty states that CPS reserves the right to repair or replace the covered product with a comparable feature model of like kind and quality. This unfortunate situation certainly should qualify for this provision to apply under the warranty contract. We cannot be expected to wait for delivery of a part with an unknown date of arrival.

I purchased a 77" ** OLED television for $3,099 which came with a CPS warranty. Six months into the warranty the set was damaged accidentally by a child which is covered under the warranty. I filed a claim on January 13th. I did not hear anything back so I called CPS on January 18th and they asked for more pictures of the damage. I did not hear anything further and I then contacted them on January 24th for an update. I did not get an update until January 26th which was just a "our claims department is working on it". I called several more times in January to be told the person assigned to my claim was not in. Finally on February 1st I received a call from a "supervisor". I was told the warranty required that an attempt to repair the set must be made first before they are willing to pay out for replacement and due to supply chain issues they could not get the replacement screen. Since there were no replacement parts my SIX MONTH old television would be treated like antiquated technology and they were not obliged to pay any replacement. The supervisor gave me a choice of a $1000 settlement or I could wait until May when a replacement part could be available. So I chose wait instead of the lowball offer. On may 12 I called to see if a replacement part was located. The rep said I needed to decline the settlement and escalate if I wanted something other than $1000 and I would hear something in two weeks. I was not contacted and made calls every other day to get a status. I was given a supervisor's phone to call for a status that always goes straight to voicemail and never called back. Finally the settlement was upped to $1250 on July 6th after 10+ calls. A low end model ** television on sale at BJ's on sale for $1400. The comp was NOT like kind or quality. The model covered under this warranty is still on the market. That same model should be the comp, not some random TV that suits the outcome CPS wants.Business Response
