Consumer states the business took from 1/1/24 to 2/9/24 to come out to look at her hot water tank. Someone came out to do repairs and she was told she had to pay for him coming out but the business was the one that sent him. He never repaired the hot water tank, she had to have it replaced herself. The consumer had to go to the water company and have them remove HomeServe from her accounts because she is paying for a service she is not receiving. The rep at the water company spoke with HomeServe on the phone to cancel the consumers service on 2/9/24. She recently received mail from the business advertising their service.Business Response

I have been haviing payments paid automatically since I opened the plan. The company changed its billing system in 2024 at which point my payments stopped being made. I called to find out what had happened and was told the billing system was not working properly and to call back later. I did and was told that the system was working again and to make my payments which I did. I have not received any corespondence from them since their so called billing system was fixed and now the payments I am making are not being applied as they company says they are not being received. My account is now in suspension due to lack of payments. I called yesterday and spoke with a representative who took my information and my payment and assured me the payment was processed. I looked at my bank statement today and the payment still is not showing and I am not getting any help from Managemnt higher ups. My complaint is that I have made every payment since February and now my account is at risk of being cancelled due to lack of payment event though I have made payments. I am at my wits end.

HomeServe debited my account four extra times for the same exact amount$11.49. I was never notified about extra charges due to system issues. I automatically thought fraud. I contacted customer service and I was told they had billing issues in November of 2023. Systems updates are not customers problems. I have 2 policies with HomeServe. Auto debit agreement is once a month on the due date. Instead of billing for nonpayment due to system issues, they waited until April to make four extra charges. One customer service representative asked if I changed my information on file. My reply was no. These charges have came out of the same account over six years. These extra charges was not authorized nor was I informed. A company should not auto debit more than the agreement and the company should make a customer’s account current due to not doing their system issues or negligence.Business Response

Earlier this year in January, when I renewed my annual service agreement for Exterior Sewer/Septic Line Plus Restoration and Exterior Water Service Line Plus Restoration with HomeServe, they offered me a discounted amount totaling $159.88. The confirmation number for this discount that Leydi gave me over the phone on January 19, 2024 was #************. However, they withdrew the original undiscounted amount of $296.64 from my bank account on February 21, 2024. I have called them six times from March 2, 2024 to ask for a total refund of $136.76, the difference between the original price and the discount price but I still have not received my refund. I keep getting told that the Refund Department is notified and the refund should be processed and will be credited back to my bank account but I have not received the refund. When I called for the fifth time on April 4, 2024, I was told that it was escalated to supervisors Sam and Christopher but still no action was taken and nobody is able to tell me why this is not being processed. At this point, I need BBB to help me get my refund.Customer Answer

Last week I had a break in my main service line that provides water to my home. The city came out and shut-off the water to my home. As I have 2 elder people and 2 young children in the home I made the decision to have a 3rd party contractor come out to do the repair in order to have the water put back on and not to have the spend the weekend without running water or a flushing toilet. I reached out to the customer service department and was told that I will not be reimbursed because I used a 3rd party contractor. It was an emergency and I made the best decision with the information I had at that time. How do I go about to get reimbursed for the expense as I already paid for the service. Thank you.Business Response

Home Serve was paid for insurance coverage on appliances for years. Those appliances (Furnace,Water heater) have stopped working and when asking for the money that is what the contract states should be paid when they were replaced the company will not do it. I have been given various people to talk to but never get a call back or any checks being sent. They are giving me the run around to wear me down so I will give up. They owe $300 for the Furnace and $300 for the Water heater. So a total of $600. I sent them pictures and papers that they requested to show that they were replaced. It’s been going on for 6 months now.Business Response

I have an interior waterline warranty with Homeserve. In January, I called them to start a claim because my basement shower and floor drain were backed up. They initially sent out ******** ********, and heating who sent them an estimate. They wanted to have another company come out and do another estimate. The company named ***** ******** came out and began to do their estimate. Home serve required them to try to clear the drain with a high-pressure jet and a drain snake. In the process, those plumbers broke some of my pipes because they are still red “clay” old pipes. Instead of digging up the pipes, they said they were not going to fix it because it isn’t up to code. They were going to cap them off and close them, then they were going to recover the floor with the broken up concrete and about a half an inch of concret or so to make it level. My husband would not let them cover it up still broken and asked them to leave. Home serve has done nothing to get this problem repaired. I’ve had holes with standing water in my basement for over a month. Every time I try to call and speak to somebody they can’t get anybody to answer the phone in the president’s office and I have to leave a message. They tell me I will get a call back within 24 hours, I’ve heard that each week with no return call for the last 3 weeks. Neither home serve or the plumbing company care about the customer. I believe the plumbing company may be cheating the insurance company as well. I just want the pipes and floor to be repaired and plumbed properly.Business Response

I received your letter and see how Homeserve responded. They are correct, and that is not how I would have liked things to turn out. However, my issue is that Homeserve sent out ***** ******** who broke up my floor, destroyed my pipes and left.
***************************
***** **************** * *****
**** ********* *** ******* ** *****
***** ********This company came to my house and dug up my floor. I have 2 massive open holes in my concrete basement floor. They broke the pipes that were apparently attached or incorrectly plumbed years ago. They decided to cap them off and close them up. Homeserve said the pipes were not covered because they were not attached to the "correct" pipes that it should have been. Since it was plumbed incorrectly, which nobody knew, they got out of fixing it. However, it should be their responsibility to put it back the way it was when they started the job..? My pipes that were broken should be intact, my concrete that was destroyed should have been repoured, and the mess of concrete, mud, and pipe pieces should have been all taken care of. I don't care if the pipes were plumbed incorrectly 40 years ago, they worked!!! I had a home inspection when I bought my home and it passed. I was given a loan for the home. It is not their decision at Homeserve to cap and close off my drains because they broke the pipes. That was just trying to cover up the screw up they made. My basement has been like this for 3 months now. I had to move my washer and dryer and have had to go to the laundry mat for my family of 4. It was costing me so much (nearly $120 a month) my husband and I cleaned up around the holes and had to plug them back in like that. I have to watch my step not to slip off or what not while I'm doing laundry now. I believe since they broke the pipes so long ago, it should now be their job to plumb it correctly, repairing their damage and plumbing the pipes for the 2 drains correctly, but that's beside the point..... WHY SHOULD THEY NOT HAVE TO PUT IT BACK AT THE SAME LEVEL THEY STARTED.. IT SHOULD BE THE SAME WHEN THEY LEAVE AS IT WAS WHEN THEY STARTED!

10 or more years ago ******** *** was offering outdoor utility insurance protection for gas, water, sewage and electric utilities. I signed up for it due to low cost and age of my house. It came in handy to which I had to have my gas line replaced. After I found out I wasn’t able to bring my own plumber in was my first red flag. Eventually ******** *** notified me that they were no longer going to collect for HomeServe and I would have to deal with them myself. The last month I paid my gas bill HomeServe tried to bill me for the same month so I canceled their service. Between then and now my wife signed up with ***** ****** (******** *****) to pay our electric bill electronically.(paperless). I received a letter from HomeServe dated 03/11/2024 saying that my Electric outdoor utility insurance was going up in price. After consulting my wife she went online to our ******** ***** bill and sure enough under a misc. charge ******** was billing me $6.48 a month for the last 10 years for insurance on my outdoor electric service. 2 years ago I had a new service with a mast installed due to waste management trucks hitting and pulling my lines. Plus my service was outdated. I paid out of pocket for my electrician to do the repairs unaware that I was paying HomeServe insurance on that utility. After receiving the letter from ***** ****** and HomeServes name on it I contacted both companies and ******** said I had to call HomeServe so I did and told them that I personally never signed any contract with them to have ******** collect money from me . Their reply was that they have a digitally signed document from me . First off I cancelled them 10 years ago, have no idea how to digitally sign anything or would ever do something like that on line. My argument with both companies is ******** shouldn’t be collecting money for a company that advertises on tv and should be billing their customers separately. I pay ******** for use of electricity. I’ve contacted ****** and ***** ** ***Customer Answer

In regards to my complaint ID ********, when I contacted HomeServe I kindly asked for the representative to mail me a copy of the signed document that I signed with a pen with my signature and his reply was that they have a document with my digital signature. Again I never in my life ever first off heard of such a thing or would know how to do it. Second of all If they have that document that they refused to mail me a copy through the **** why were they able to mail me a letter saying my rates were going up. I asked them to either refund me for the last 10 years they said I was paying on it or refund me for the service I paid out of pocket for that they would have been charged if I did file a claim through them replacing my electrical service. What’s wrong with this whole situation is ******** ***** should only be charging me for my electric. If I agreed to a contract with HomeServe which I canceled after ******** *** quit collecting for them, I should have been contacted by HomeServe acknowledging a means of paying them not ********. I wonder how many other people on a fixed income signed up for paperless electronic billing with ******** and aren’t aware that they digitally signed up for something that they aren’t aware of. I also contacted my local legislator to pass a bill that doesn’t allow a utility company to collect on behalf of another company and they fully agree with me, and are awaiting to see how HomeServe replies.

They autorenew at a higher rate and do not notify in regards. When trying to cancel, they only try to upsell and transfer to another agent who continues to try to upsell instead of just simply cancel as you ask them to. Then they put you on hold again, by then I would either lose connection or have to deal with one of my own customers. I estimate it must take at least 30 minutes on the phone to finally get them to cancel. Again that's an estimate because I don't have 30 minutes to stay on the phone and listen to all their **. I told them cancel and they still charged me yet again. I have now filed a dispute through my credit card company since they will not simply cancel when you tell them to.Business Response
