Total Protect Home Warranty Complaint - Do yourself a HUGE favor. Stay Away from these scammers - Home Service Insurance Package

Home Service Insurance Package - Complaint
Review by jojoman on 2011-06-10
P.O. BOX 550247, FLORIDA -- This is far from a favorable review. I purchased this plan through Bank of America back in 2008. I did not need them until April of this year. My furnace was leaking co2 into my house, so I called them. I did not get a reply for over one month. By then, it had warmed up, and I found that my central A/C was not working. I called again, and one week later they sent out a service man. He told me that there was a hole in my heat exchanger, but needed proof for the insurance company, and that he would be back the next day with a camera. I never heard from him again. I called and called and called, but got and am still getting a comlete and utter run around about electrical wiring, and codes and more bullcrap. Everything they are saying is listed as covered in my contract. This was a GREAT company as long as they were taking money from my bank account every month. I have submitted a complaint to my state attorney generals office, and am fully prepared to sue in court if that does not produce any satisfaction for me and my family.

From what I've seen of the reviews about these 'Home Warranty' plans, a lot of them seem to spend more time figuring out how to deny claims instead of fixing problems. We maintain a household bank account that is used specifically for unexpected home repairs. It means that when something does happen, we can call for service from a reliable contractor (we keep a list in our phone book) and get the problem corrected promptly.
