      I am rejecting this response because:

      Do I receive a check for the 500$ towards a new system or repair? Instead of buying one then getting reimbursed new units costs in the upwards of $4000 I wont be getting one soon. If I was able to get the 500$ sent to me I can atleast put a down payment possibly on a cheaper brand or even get one from pivotal.

      This all began on February 7th, 2025. We the night before had noticed that our outside sewer clean out was clogged and spilling into our landscaping. I the next morning contacted thru the text phone number to make an claim and appointment to have our clean out rodded out. I pay monthly for outside sewer coverage at a cost of $22.49 a month. That morning thru the chat I was told that I didn't have an adequate clean out and needed to have one installed. This began my problem and a run around of phone calls that weren't returned as well as emails that we were asked to send that were never responded too. I would then find out a few days to a week later when I would contact thru the chat which is the only the way that I was getting some answers. We were told that our account was flagged with "Unable to process with this Component DO NOT SERVICE-No Rodding-Customer Needs Adequate Clean-Out." We were not aware of this at all and then figured out that a company that came out in 2021 from home solutions flagged our account without us knowing. To continue or frustration we then had to get our own plumbing company come out and pay out of pocket which cost us $400.00 out of pocket. We are looking to be reimbursed or refunded for that amount as well as the $1.079.52 I paid for a service for 4 years that I was unable to use. The clean out was deemed adequate by a company home solutions sent to prove it was always there and legal. We are still trying to retain the money we spent and have sent countless emails to a supervisor as well us customer service with no responses. At this time I am unable to get receipts to upload to this as well. But I do have 2 papers that are the receipt from the clean out being deemed legal and valid as well as the receipt that shows the out of pocket expense we paid. We are very frustrated and have had home solutions for over 10 years with no issues. The fact that someone else decided to deem this not legal and we were never notified is ridiculous.

      On July 30, 2024, I signed up for the ************************ program. On November 20, 2024, I filed a claim for a leaky and clogged kitchen sink. When Her's and His Plumbing came, they said it was a collapsed pipe and that AWR would only cover the pipe being repaired; they would not cover the hole in the floor and wall to get to the pipe. I was told how much I needed to pay, and I didn't have the funds at the time. On March 5, 2025, I had the funds, so I called AWR, and I was told the claim from November was closed. I said I understood and asked for a new claim. Her's and His Plumbing came again, and I agreed with what I had to pay, so we were waiting on *** to approve the claim. I called on March 8, 2025, to check the status and was told no decision yet. I asked *** if upgrading to the full home warranty would mess with my claim. I was told no, so I upgraded. On March 10, 2025, I called again and was told it was denied for a preexisting problem. I explained that it was not, and once I told them the situation, they told me I had to open a new claim with the notes of our discussion. The same thing happened on March 24, 2025. So now there are four claims made for the same issue. They continue to tell me it's a preexisting problem. If you look under the new program, it would be a preexisting problem, but this is a problem from November 20, 2024. So now, they are still refusing to pay. Now, I have to pay $7,700. instead of $2,400. I do not understand how they can get away with this.

      Upon receiving the above-referenced matter, *** ******* initially contacted AWR on November 15th, 2024, to report an internal plumbing issue. *** promptly dispatched a licensed contractor to her home to investigate.

Due to access issues, *** ******* decided to pause the claim and agreed to contact *** to file another claim when she was ready to proceed. The repair was completed on April 11th, 2025. We have since spoken with *** *******, who has confirmed her satisfaction with the repair. We encourage *** ******* to reach out to AWR with any further questions or concerns she may have.

      I spoke to a service *** name **** on February 27th or February28th 2025.I requested to discontinue my Plumbing coverage. There was to be an increase in my Electric line coveraage of *****. I was told that my new bill for March would be (*****) I paid the bill. Today I received bill for March (98.96).I phoned and spoke with a *** and was informed that the *** did not follow through with the cancellation per policy/procedure, which makes the plumbing still active on my account. I have not received a letter as yet about this matter. Very frustrating service *** does not follow the policy or procedure for customer accounts in this type of issue. I've been a customer for years and I don't feel a trust from this company. I will not pay a bill for a shortest of ($1.49) with a new bill showing more than what was told to me at the cancellation of coverage plan. My bill for ***** is ***** that is what I was told. I ask PHS CHECK their records about my account on this issue and give me word on solving what the problem with the service center *** not doing her job correctly and causing me this stress. I wish now to close my account, I was offered by the service center person I spoke with today a bundle protection plan that coverage everything but with this (Big error on PHS end) I'm not trusting it be done correctly.

They are still charging me, taking money out of my account and penalizing me, even though I've called them multiple times and explained the situation

      Upon receiving the above referenced matter (PHS) spoke with Ms. ******** regarding her reimbursement for her water heater. *** advised *********** her coverage does not have replacement coverage. She mentioned that she had upgraded to the water heater repair coverage. PHS advised her at the time her water heater was deemed irreparable she had the Water Heater Basic coverage, which does not have replacement coverage. After careful consideration, we have decided to authorize the reimbursement for the water heater repair, contingent upon Ms. ******** completing the reimbursement documents and providing a receipt as proof of purchase for the new water heater. We (PHS) encourage Ms. ******** to contact us with any additional questions or concerns.

After all THEY never explained anything when we signed up for the plan and took it over from Nipsco.  Since we have been paying for something for 20 years.

      Upon receiving the referenced matter, PHS agreed, as a courtesy, to reimburse Ms. ******** for the water heater replacement, despite her ineligibility for replacement coverage. *** offered to reimburse up to the maximum limit under the Water Heater Repair Replacement Coverage. Ms. ******** did not qualify for any replacement coverage under the Water Heater Basic plan she had maintained for years. Recognizing her long-term commitment to this plan, *** agreed to reimburse her up to the maximum replacement amount under the Water Heater Repair program. If the reimbursement amount does not cover the installation costs, this will be an out-of-pocket expense for Ms. ********* PHS attempted to contact Ms. ******** to discuss this matter, but she was unavailable.  We (PHS) encourage Ms. ******** to contact us with any additional questions or concerns.

      My furnace was inspected in Dec 2024 and found to have dangerous issues. I have a home warranty plan with Nicor Home solutions, aka Pivotal Home Solutions, aka Oncourse Home Solutions. They came out and found the same issues and provided an estimate to replace my furnace. It was higher than another estimate from a trusted provider. I went with the other provided and submitted an out-of-network claim, including my receipt for the new furnace that was installed in January 2025 by ******** Heating. My claim was denied saying that I did not provide a receipt. However I did provide the receipt. I've attached it here, though it's not the original copy (I sent that with my claim papers). I also have followed up with customer service several times and am not getting movement. Account Number: ****** Contract Number: ******* They also somehow signed me up for auto billing even though I didn't knowingly do that. Please help.
