I bought new appliances several years ago, and purchased the **** extended warranty for an oven and refrigerator.A piece of the fridge broke, so I filed a claim on ********** website. I received an email stating "This email confirms your recent online transaction as listed below. You will be contacted by a service representative within 24 hours with further instructions on getting your item repaired."After 11 days, I tried again getting the same email *************** has now been more that 24 DAYS, and I still got no response.Several years ago, I filed a claim about my oven as well. They eventually responded, though not satisfactorily. Because, they couldn't help me out properly then, they offered to refund what I paid them prorated. Even if they refunded the whole amount, that would not be fair, because I can't just get a new warranty after a few years.Business Response

Good Morning,
We
have been in the process of locating a center in your area.
Unfortunately, there are no other centers in your area willing to work
with us as 3rd party and will only work with customer directly.
As
per management, it will now be the customers responsibility to locate a
center in your area for service and submit an estimate to us. Once you
have an appointment scheduled please let me know the day and time.
All
estimates must be approved by MACK first, which means once service
center gives you an estimate, you must email it to me for review. We ask
that you do not pay for any repairs before we authorize approval.
Estimates consist of parts and labor cost. You will be reimbursed for
service call fee within a 25 mile radius of your home.
Below I
have provided you with 3 centers to contact directly should you decide
to use them. You are also welcome to contact a center of your choice as
well. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to
contact me.

I am rejecting this response because:As I wrote clearly in my complaint, there was another claim which I filed a few years ago, which they responded to, although not satisfactorily. That is the one from 2021 which they are talking about.
I submitted an unrelated claim on August 11, 2024, then again on August 26. That is the one that I am waiting on.

Customer set up a claim on our web site for units to be sent into our facility not for local service. Once we received the BBB we emailed the customer the proper instructions. we responded to his claim the same day that the issue wasn't covered under warranty:

Hello,
This is not covered under warranty, this is considered damage. The warranty covers manufacturers defects,

Better Business Bureau:It seems that complaining through BBB is the only way to get through to this company. After submitting my claim twice and emailing the rep directly, there was still no response. After submitting my complaint through BBB, she told me that they had ignored my claim, because it was submitted incorrectly...
Thanks BBB,

Hi, Good morning. I have filed a warranty claim, a week ago. When I contacted them for status, after telling me that they have not received paper work and then i advised them that it was uploaded to the portal, they were very rude on the phone and would not tell me when it will be addressed. its my second claim with them and its same run around as in the past.

my fridge stopped cooling on April 28, I called in **** on the 29th, they said it will take "10" business days! just to process my request, we tried explaining that we cannot be without a fridge for that long, especially with a few children in the house, they said this is their policy...after 10 days they scheduled a repairman to check, he came diagnosed, then they said someone has to... recheck... came... said will order parts... fast forward to today "6" weeks later! still nobody came to fix, they don't know the status of the parts that are supposed to come, every time i call nobody knows nothing there, they are so nasty and unsympathetic, each time they can just keep on saying maaaaam... you have to understand....Initial Complaint

I purchased an appliance with a warranty from Mack Warranty. The appliance broke and Mack agreed to pay the warranty amount. They asked me to sign a letter and confirmed I would be receiving a check in the mail. However, they never mailed the check and are refusing to give me a timeframe of when they will mail it.Initial Complaint

I bought a brand new Electrolux dryer 3 years ago. It has never dried well and I had **** come down to fix it multiple times, and they ultimately agreed to compensate for for $525 as they couldnt fix the issue. Its been over a year since that promise and I have contacted them multiple times, and have not received any payment! This is unacceptable!Initial Complaint

Hi,
I had a an extended warranty with Mack on a kitchen aid dishwasher. The machine broke and they sent me down technicians to check it out. They changed parts on the machine but it still dindnt work. They then said that it cannot be fixed and I will be refunded. They emailed me a form to sign which I did so and sent it back (uploaded a copy) they said it takes 120 business days to process. After 120 business days I called to check the status, however the answer was we have no info but we can send an email to management. And this is what they still answer me every time I call since then. Its now 7 months since I was promised a refund for my broken appliance. There is NOBODY in that company that can give me an update of when I will get my check. The only thing they can tell me is that they will email management. Ive been calling, left messages, sent emails. NOBODY is responding and I never got my check.
If you can help me solve this issue with them it would be greatly appreciated.
