    I called for 2 different service one on an air conditioner and one on for our stove. They wouldnt fix the dampers on the A/C because they arent covered even though the salesman said they would be when I purchased the warranty. The second time was for our stove that a burner stopped working. The service person came out said the motherboard was out of it and needed replaced. He turned the information into Service Plus. A few days later I received an email to call them which I did. During the call I was informed that they couldnt get the part because they were no longer available so I asked when they were going to replace my stove like the warranty states it does. I was informed they werent doing that either. Instead they were going to send me a check for what the part should have cost. I asked how they could come up with a price and they said they took the average of similar parts. If a part isnt available and being told at the purchase any breakage would be fixed or replaced I expect the stove to be replaced. Instead I have a broken stove and am waiting 8 weeks for a check because that is how long it takes them to write a small check.

    Thank you for reaching out to us regarding the above-referenced complaint. We treat every concern with the utmost respect and view feedback as an opportunity to improve the service we provide to our valued customers. While we understand there are two sides to every situation, we are committed to working toward fair resolutions.

    Upon reviewing the claims in question:

    Air Conditioner Claim (Submitted 9/27/2024)

    The consumer reported an issue of no air coming from the vents. Upon inspection, the participating vendor identified the failure as a damper motor. Under the terms of the Service Agreement, this component is not covered. Damper motors, which redirect airflow between zones, fall under excluded items along with zone controllers and related components.

    Relevant Policy Details:

    Covered: Mechanical parts of two ducted electric central air conditioning systems up to 5-ton capacity.

    Not Covered: Zone controllers, zone components and parts, and other specified exclusions outlined in the agreement.

    Stove Claim (Submitted 10/20/2024)
    The consumer reported the left burner was not working. The vendor determined the failure was caused by the trim control assembly, which is no longer available. Per the Service Agreement, when a part is unavailable, we offer a cash payment equivalent to the average cost of parts and labor for the covered repair. We communicated this buyout offer to the consumer on 11/1/2024.

    The check was processed and mailed on 12/4/2024, adhering to the standard processing timeframe of up to 30 business days.

    Our review confirms that both claims were handled appropriately and in accordance with the terms of the Service Agreement, which clearly defines coverage inclusions and exclusions.
    We remain committed to delivering exceptional service and fostering trust with our customers. Should you have further questions or need additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us at **************.

    Complaint: 22614385

    I am rejecting this response because: when purchasing this agreement I was told if something could not be fixed it would be replaced not that we would be paid an average of the cost of the part. As far as the air conditioner I went over with the salesman about my systems. I was told the whole system would be covered which meant the baffles too.

    I purchased a 3 yr home warranty plan and appliance coverage. My water heater failed and they denied any coverage. My refrigerator began to fail. They assessed the appliance over the phone and said the part needed was no longer made but they would mail me $300. I had to go and buy a new refrigerator for $1800 and I have yet to get the $300. I have called 3 times and no luck, they just say it is will accounting. I am beyond frustrated with their unethical practices and run around.

    Complaint ***********
    Thank you for contacting us regarding the above-referenced complaint. At ServicePlus Home Warranty, we value every opportunity to receive feedback and use it to improve the services we provide to our valued customers. We understand there are two sides to every situation and strive to achieve a fair resolution for all parties involved.
    Water Heater Claim (Claim Date: 01/24/2024)
    The consumer placed a claim for a leaking water heater on January 24, 2024, specifically citing a leak in the pan beneath the tank. Upon review, the failure was determined to be a non-covered condition, as outlined in the policy:
    Section G. Water Heater
    Covered:
    All components and parts for gas and/or electric hot water heaters, including circulating pumps.
    Not Covered:
    Auxiliary and secondary holding/storage tanks; main, holding, or storage tanks; expansion tanks; base pans; drain pans and drain lines; line restrictions; pressure-reducing valves; sediment build-up; mineral and/or calcium build-up; rust and corrosion; combustion shutdown; color or purity of water; flues; vent pipes/lines; insulation and insulation blankets; heat recovery units; tankless hot water heaters; low boy and/or squat water heaters; solar water heaters including all solar components and parts; any noise without a related mechanical failure; holding tank failure and any other reported failures resulting from the holding tank failure; racks; straps; timers; energy management systems; commercial-grade equipment and units exceeding 75 gallons.
    As per the contract, our liability is limited to $500 per contract term for access, diagnosis, repair, and/or replacement of water heaters.
    Refrigerator Claim (Claim Date: 08/14/2024)
    The consumer filed a claim on August 14, 2024, reporting that their refrigerator was constantly running. Our participating vendor inspected the unit and found that both the condenser and the fan motor assembly had failed. Given the unit's age and the potential for further issues, we offered the consumer a cash settlement in accordance with the policy:
    Section V: Cash **************** reserve the right to offer cash back in lieu of repair or replacement in the amount of our actual cost, which may at times be less than retail, to repair or replace any covered system, component, or appliance. If a system or appliance is deemed irreparable or it is not cost-effective to repair, we may replace it with one of like capacity, with the replacement price not exceeding the depreciated value of the original system or appliance.
    Additionally, we want to clarify that installation is not covered by SPHW under cash settlements.
    Check Processing Delay
    Under normal circumstances, checks are processed and mailed within 30 business days. Unfortunately, due to a compromise in our financial account, we had to freeze and close the account for security reasons, which caused an unavoidable delay.
    In an effort to resolve this issue, we have expedited the check processing and it will be mailed within 7-10 business days.
    Commitment to Service
    All claims have been processed in compliance with the terms of the Service Agreement, which includes both covered and non-covered conditions. We remain committed to providing a positive customer experience and to upholding the integrity of our services for all our customers, contractors, and employees.
    We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate the consumer's patience and understanding during this process. If there are any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us directly at **************.

    Filed my first claim with the company on 11/11 Claim number ******. First the company that they said would send out a tech does not exist and any attempt at calling them goes straight to a mobile Voicemail that out of the 6 calls I made to them they never returned one of them. On calling back to Service plus they said event they could not reach the company. after multiple attempts to get them to correct the situation they have refused and told me to go ahead and get my own contractor they would reimburse 200 dollars. When I asked for my money back that they weren't following through with what they were supposed to do as a company they sent me back into a queue. When I called back they said the refunds department was closed.

    In August 2022, I purchased a home warranty from ServicePlus. The sales rep indicated that covered appliances would be repaired or replaced (this is the same advertisement pitch they have on their on-hold message). In July 2024 I filed a claim on a refrigerator. They spent several days searching for a service tech to come to my home. I was informed after 10 days that they were not able to find a technician and that I had to fine one myself and ServicePlus would pay for the service call. I was later informed that ServicePlus reimburses at a very low rate, $250 for a $579.98 repair bill. ServicePlus approved the claim and said that the check would be sent in 7 to 8 weeks. That was on 8/16/24. I called on 10/16/24 to see what the status of the payment was. I was told there was a delay in getting the checks sent and that it was in the system and would be sent out by the following Friday. I called again on 11/13/24 and was told that there was a back log and that they didn't know when the check would be sent. This company has not lived up to any of the claims they advertise. I have spoken to them several times now and keep getting vague answers to my questions and no resolution on my claim. The company name is ServicePlus Home Warranty but when you call them, they tell you that it isn't a warranty, it is instead a "Service Contract". For this kind of service, you would be better off putting the money you spend for the warranty in your own bank account.

    I have filed three claims with this company since I paid for my coverage in full for the 6 year contract. 1st was for my washer having compressor and another issue. They refused to fix it but instead offered to pay $250. It took them over three months to even send me the payment that barely touched what a new washer cost. 2nd claim filed is for my A/C unit. The technician let me know that the compressor locked up due to normal wear and tear beyond my control. ServicePlus has refused to cover cost of repairs. They have twisted the technicians words and have stated that they will not cover the cost to repair.I have requested to have this contract canceled back in September when I was having issues getting the claim check they were paying me, they refused to cancel and refund my money. I want a refund and policy cancellation.

    Clothes Washer Claim - 7/18/2024
    The consumer filed a claim for a clothes washer issue, reporting a grinding noise during agitation. Our participating vendor diagnosed multiple component failures, including the shaft, motor, and spin basket. As the cost of repair exceeded the value of the unit, we offered a cash settlement per the terms of the policy on 8/1/2024. Unfortunately, due to a security issue, our account was compromised, which required us to freeze and close it, causing delays. Despite these circumstances, the consumers check was issued on 10/22/2024 and cashed on 10/30/2024.
    Air Conditioner Claim - 10/29/2024
    The consumer reported inadequate cooling for their air conditioner. Our vendor determined that the compressor had failed, and since the unit was still under the manufacturers warranty, this situation was not covered under our policy (Section VII-Q). Nevertheless, in a gesture of goodwill, we offered $500 towards the labor costs of the repair. This offer was declined by the consumer.
    Sprinkler System Claim - 10/29/2024
    The consumer submitted a claim for a broken main pipe in their sprinkler system. Due to a shortage of participating vendors, we extended a reimbursement option, allowing the consumer to hire a local vendor. The vendor would need to report the failure, parts, and pricing to **** for approval. To date, we have not received a paid invoice, which is necessary to process the reimbursement.
    Policy Cancellation - 11/13/2024
    The consumer requested policy cancellation, which we processed per the Terms & Conditions. The refund was issued to the card on file on 11/17/2024.

    Regarding the claim for the water heater on 10/10/2024, the participating vendor identified the issue as a failure of the gas control valve due to sediment buildup. According to Section 5-G of the ServicePlus policy, coverage does not extend to failures caused by sediment, mineral, or calcium buildup.
    While the claim was handled in accordance with the Service Agreement, we understand the importance of resolving matters fairly. To assist, we extended a goodwill offer of $200.00 towards the uncovered condition, which was declined. Additionally, the policy was canceled on 10/30/2024, and the $45.00 monthly payment was refunded to the card on file.

    I am rejecting this response because: 

    I am not satisfied with Service plus response. I know they said they turned down my claim because settlement was in my tank here. In Cincinnati, we have hard water settlements in all our tanks. I know in a letter they said they offered me $200 in good faith but they took more than $200 from me. Like I said, it's not about the money. This is about how service plus handles Their business. Like I said, they gave me back the money they got from 45 dollars a month 12 months of payment. BBB I would like post to let other Consumers. Know how service plus handle their business.

    We appreciate the opportunity to address this complaint.
    As outlined in our previous responses, we have properly addressed the consumer’s concerns and cited the applicable sections of the policy that serve as grounds for the denial of coverage. It is important to note that all home service contracts include both covered and non-covered conditions.
    The policy provides coverage for normal wear-and-tear mechanical failures. However, in this case, the failure was determined to be caused by sediment buildup, which is explicitly listed as a non-covered condition under the terms of the agreement.
    We sincerely regret the consumer’s negative experience. The policy was cancelled as of October 30, 2024, and the applicable refund was processed on the same day.
    We politely request this complaint be closed as answered. If further assistance is needed, please do not hesitate to contact us at ###-###-####.

    Plumbing Stoppage Claim
    The consumer reported a plumbing issue involving a sink and washer backing up.

To expedite service, the consumer was also given the option of a reimbursement.

Told me they don't have phones, only CS can text them to note my claim refund is now overdue. Way past due. I am 75 yrs old & feel they are taking advantage of me. They have not taken care of this process in their company time frame. At this point I do not trust them for the remaining time of my 3yr policy.

    I am rejecting this response because: I received a check on 11/29/24 in the amount of $200. I have not cashed this check. While it is nice that I finally got notice by your company, this is not what I expected as a result of the BBB claim I made against your company. I still have time left on my warranty. I do not feel confident that you are trustworthy for any future claim. I asked for my entire $1,350 payment made to you on time. Your company defaulted on claim payment to me and very unsatisfactory amount of $200. I can't buy any oven for this price. So, please send me my $1,350 payment minus the $200 for check you finally sent. I am contacting the BBB of sending you this notice as well.

    Transaction took place on June 7, 2024. Initial payment was $51.00, i paid a total of $102.00 to ServicePlus Home Warranty. I opted to take the month to month payment of $51.00 a month with the option to cancel at anytime. I was never told that it was a one year policy. After two months i made a claim and they wanted me to find a repair person in my area that they would approve of to come and check out my claim. At this point, i tried to cancel my contract and they kept telling me i could not cancel. They never would give me a reason. I had to cancel my credit card to keep them from charging on it. After 5 months of trying to get them to quit calling me, i called this morning and finally got a straight answer about why they would not cancel my warranty. They told me i had to keep it active for 1 year. If i would have known this from the beginning i would never have signed up for it. I did not receive the contract even though they said that it was sent. I could look at it on my account page and i do not remember seeing anything that said i had to keep the policy for a year. Basically all i want is for them to quit calling me and be upfront with everything before anyone takes out a policy. I just received another phone call from them. Every time it is a different number and if you try calling it back, you get a recording that says this number is no longer a working number. Here are a few of their numbers i get calls from and they all have the same area code of 361: 223-5376, 223-5332, 223-5404, 223-5354, 223-5429, 223-5352. The list goes on.

    Thank you for reaching out to us regarding the referenced complaint. We handle each complaint with the utmost respect and use this feedback to improve our service for valued customers. We recognize that there are always two sides to every story, and we strive to reach a fair resolution for all parties.
    The consumer initially placed a claim for a stove on 7/22/2024, reporting that it was not turning on. Additionally, the consumer mentioned a storm and a power outage, after which the clock on the stove was not functioning. The consumer was informed that failures due to acts of God or power failures are considered non-covered conditions under their policy.
    According to Section VII. General Limitations of Liability,our Agreement only covers repairs and/or replacements due to mechanical failures from ordinary wear and tear. It does not cover failures resulting from causes such as power failure, power surge, lightning strikes, acts of God, or other conditions outside the scope of ordinary use. We aim to provide clear and thorough explanations of all inclusions and exclusions within the Service Agreement.
    In an effort to assist, we offered to send a vendor, which the consumer declined. We then extended an offer of a free service charge for use on the next claim, which was also declined.
    The consumer purchased a 1-year, monthly payment policy on 6/7/2024. As of 11/15/2024, the policy has been canceled due to non-payment in accordance with Section XII. Cancellation of the Agreement.
    We remain committed to upholding our core values by providing industry-leading home warranty products and exceptional services to the customers we are privileged to serve. If you have further questions or need additional assistance, please contact us at **************.

    I am rejecting this response because: cancelling my policy is fine with me, but they did not say anything about not calling me which is what i want.  They did not tell all the truth about sending someone out.  They wanted me to find a repair person.  I also did not tell them that for sure that it was a power problem. I said it could be, but unless someone came to check it out. i would not know. That is when they told me they wanted me to find a service person, that they would approve of.  If i have to do this, then i am basically doing their job.  All i want is for them to stop calling me. If they will did that then i will be happy.
