      In September 2024, I filed a claim with Service Plus for my dishwasher. Service Plus did authorize a vendor to come out and address the issue. The Vendor came to my home six times over one month. Three of those visits required parts to be ordered each time. After installing three different parts, the Vendor could not rectify the problem and stated they would let Service Plus know and further information would come from them. Service Plus did contact me and state they would provide me money in lieu of continuing repair attempts. On November 1, 2024, ************ authorized $250 to be paid to me as their contractual obligation for replacement of the appliance. After three weeks since the authorization, I had not received the payment. I contacted ************ and was advised the payment could take up to eight weeks after authorization for the check being mailed. Even though I had made calls around the Christmas and New Years Holidays, i still had not received the check and was now told I would receive an email from Service Plus when the check was physically cut and mailed. I received an email on February 18, 2025 the check was cut and being mailed. The email confirmed my address and said to allow 7-10 days for the check to arrive via ****. In March 2025 I called because I had not received the check. I was told to contact the ***************** and inquire with them where my check is. I did not contact the ***************** about this because the check was not mailed with any tracking identification and was sent via regular mail. In April 2025 I contacted Service Plus to let them know I still had not received the check. I was told to inquire with the **** again. I replied there's no tracking info and **** cannot assist with finding the check. I asked about re-issuing the check and was told there's a $30 re-issue fee which would be deducted from the check amount. I declined that option. I still do not have the check

      Better Business Bureau:



      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID 23465053, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me, although the waiver of a check re-issue fee is news to me.  I was told I had to wait 90 days from the date the original check was allegedly cut before they would cut another check and not deduct $25 or $30 for their re-issue fee.  That's why I waited so long before pressing the issue again.

      They have not provided the service as promised. Continuously, stall to send technicians. In October 24my oven was broken they did not fix it until the end of Jan25. In April,25 the refrigerator got worse when the technician came out and after a tremendous out of time in June 25 they said they would send someone after I told them I was canceling. ***** #**** he said he was the manager of the resolution department and would not cancel it until September 25. I told them that they broke the contract by not providing the services that was promised. I had called on Saturday and they told me to call today to cancel. Need help getting it canceled.

      Over a year ago someone contacted me about a great deal for a home warranty program for my home. It was less expensive than I was paying so I decided to change plans. They took a real long time to get me my documents and then when I actually needed to use it I found out about a service call fee of $125 which did not include the repair costs. If they decide there is no coverage then you have to pay for the repairs. I was never told about this part of the plan. I am skeptical that they will just say its not covered and over charge me. When my toilet broke and needed immediate repair, a technician never contacted me in 2 days. I went to a plumber who will now fix my garbage disposal for far less than ServicePlus. They can be out in a day or two. I tried cancelling and they will not let me out of the contract until it expires so they say on 10/14/25

Every concern is viewed as an opportunity to improve the overall customer experience. It is understood that there are two sides to every situation, and the company always strives to reach a fair and reasonable resolution for all parties involved.
      In this case, the customer submitted a claim on May 17, 2025, for a garbage disposal unit that was reported as not turning on.
      Per the Service Agreement (Section III. Requesting Service):
      Service may be requested by calling ************** or through the online customer portal.
      Under normal circumstances, the company will contact an authorized Service Contractor within two (2) business days, or within four (4) days on weekends and holidays.

      The company determines whether a request qualifies as an emergency and makes reasonable efforts to expedite such cases. Expedited scheduling for non-emergency services may be possible for an additional fee, subject to contractor availability.
      In accordance with this policy, a participating vendor was assigned to the claim on May 20, 2025. On May 21, 2025, the customer informed the ********************** that the issue had already been resolved independently.
      All actions related to the claim were carried out in full compliance with the terms outlined in the Service Agreement. As with all contracts, there are specific inclusions and exclusions that apply.
      The customers policy was subsequently cancelled on May 21, 2025, in accordance with the Terms & Conditions.

      Signed up Feb 18, 2025 for 2 year service plan and now finding out that they keep putting you off and don't fix the item under warranty. Started a claim Sunday, 5/11 and the company went as far as having a technician from their service company, ********************* come out, collect my $75 fee, diagnosed the problem, condenser frozen and destroyed, and told me he now has to order the part, AFTER they submit their findings to ServicePlus.........I have had to call daily and as of 5/16, ServicePlus has not sent approval to ********** to even order the parts. I believe they have scammed me into this 2 year contract and don't plan on servicing anything. Please make them be accountable.Thank you,**** *******

We value all customer feedback and treat each concern with the utmost respect, as it provides us with opportunities to improve the services we offer our valued customers. We understand that there are often two sides to every story and strive to reach fair and equitable resolutions for all parties involved.
      The customer submitted a claim on May 11, 2025, for a refrigerator that was not cooling properly. A participating vendor was dispatched on May 12, 2025. The technician’s findings indicated that the compressor was operating at a minimal level due to a severe internal restriction within the filter dryer and capillary tube.
      According to the terms of the Service Agreement, this issue constitutes a non-covered condition. The relevant section of the agreement is outlined below:
      V. COVERAGE – C. Refrigerator
      Note: Refrigerator must be located in the kitchen.
      COVERED: All components and parts, including the integral freezer unit, except:
      NOT COVERED: Racks; shelves; glass; lighting; handles; doors, door seals, hinges, and gaskets; Freon; disposal and recapture of Freon; ice makers, ice crushers, beverage dispensers and their respective equipment; water lines and valves to ice maker; line restrictions; leaks of any kind; maintenance; interior thermal shells; freezers not integral to the refrigerator; wine chillers or mini refrigerators; food spoilage; noise without a related mechanical failure; multimedia centers; and internet connection components.
      We confirm that this claim was processed in full accordance with the terms and conditions of the Service Agreement. As with all contracts, there are both inclusions and exclusions.
      However, in the interest of customer satisfaction and as a gesture of goodwill, we offered the customer a $300.00 payment toward the cost of the non-covered condition. This offer was accepted on May 16, 2025.
      Our commitment remains steadfast in upholding our founding principles by delivering industry-leading home warranty products and exceptional service to every customer we are privileged to serve.

      I am rejecting this response because: The issue was not quite as cut and dry as they said.  They compensated me as a good faith gesture??  No, that's how the warranty is supposed to work.  If it is too much to fix, they give you something towards a new one.  Their way of business is not acceptable to me and I want to cancel the 2 year warranty and have my $$ refunded, less the $300(have not received yet).  So I want to cancel this and get my $1800 returned to me.  It needs to be noted on their business that they are not what they say they are.

      We have properly addressed this complaint and cited the applicable sections of the service agreement that support the denial of coverage. As with all home service contracts, there are both inclusions and exclusions.
      The failure in question was determined to be a non-covered condition, and as such, SPHW had no financial obligation under the terms of the policy. However, in an effort to assist the customer, we extended a $300 goodwill offer.
      The full-service agreement is available at any time on our website at www.serviceplus.com under the "Resources" section and can be reviewed prior to purchase. Additionally, customers are provided with a 30-day review period following the purchase, during which they may cancel for a full refund if not satisfied with the Terms & Conditions
      We sincerely apologize for the customer's negative experience. If the customer would like to proceed with canceling the policy as per the Terms & Conditions, they may contact us at 1-800-545-0402 for assistance.

      How in the world would you know to cancel a warranty like this, in 30 days?!?!  This company is ripping people off and is unfair.  If they are not going to cover the cooling part of a refrigerator/freezer......what are they covering??  This is a total disservice to the public and they should be stopped.  And I have yet to receive the $300 promised.

      The ServicePlus home warranty company portrays itself as a company the covers the typical failures of equipment in a typical household, however all claims submitted to date have been denied because of fine print in the policy that is not shared up front at the moment of sale, but available online after an account is created. These exclusions and requirements are cleverly worded to leave the impression of a comprehensive coverage, however in practice results in all claims being denied or paid off with an amount that is a fraction of the repalceemnt costs. examples:-wine cooler - excluded from coverage - dishwasher - repair part no longer available, offered to pay $156, what the replacement part would have costs. After protest offered to pay $300. The replacement costs was $1823 -built in microwave - denied, even though the policy covers built in microwaves, and this microwave was built in, but the manufacturer markets it also as a countertop with a build-in trimkit, they have a basis to deny the claim - Waterheater stopped working; water heaters are fully covered but not tankless water heaters......- **, The ** claim would have been covered but the part that failed was. still under manufcturers warranty, so the claim is denied because they do not deal with manufacturers, resulting in the part is covered by the manufacturer but the replacement of the part I need to pay, $1100 to have it replaced. Coverage denied. I cannot find anywhere in the policy that coverage of equipment that After these experiences I requested to cancel the policy are get the prorated policy amount refunded. I was assured (verbally when purchasing the policy) that I could cancel at anytime and would be refunded the prorated premium. I paid $1980 on 25 July 2024 for 6 years of coverage.I am requesting a payment of the $1100 ** repair and a refund of the remaining prorated policy and cancellation ofthe policy All in all from my perspective a highly deceptive business

Additionally, consumers are provided with a 30-day review period following the purchase, during which they may cancel the agreement for a full refund if not satisfied.
      A summary of the customers claims and the actions taken is as follows:
      Dishwasher Claim 11/21/2024

      Built-In Microwave Claim 12/9/2024

      I filed a claim 4/28/25 that my refrigerator was not working. They had a technician call and decided what was wrong over the phone. He was placing what part needed to be ordered and Service Plus was to get a technician assigned to fix it. I have called several times as to not assigned. 1st was the part needed to be ordered and now it is they cannot find a technician to do the job. Thursday the supervisor was to escalate this. Saturday still not assigned & now they are saying nothing will happen until Monday! I have paid my $75 and my annual fee! They say I can hire my own and they will reimburse me me but I am afraid they wont & I dont have that kind of $ right now.

      Thank you for contacting us regarding the above-referenced complaint. We take all concerns seriously and appreciate your feedback, as it helps us continually improve the services we provide to our valued customers.
      We understand that every situation has multiple perspectives, and we always strive to reach fair and reasonable resolutions for all parties involved.
      In this case, the customer submitted a claim on April 28, 2025, regarding a refrigerator that was not cooling properly. A participating vendor diagnosed the issue as a faulty relay and arranged for the necessary part to be shipped directly to the customer. A work order was generated for the vendor to complete the repair once the part was received. Unfortunately, there was a delay caused by an issue with the vendor receiving the work order.
      To address the delay, we offered the customer a reimbursement option. This alternative allows the customer to hire a local technician to install the provided part. The technician would need to contact us with the installation cost for prior approval. Once approved, we will issue reimbursement upon receiving a copy of the paid receipt.
      As a gesture of goodwill, we applied a complimentary service call fee credit to the customers account on May 8, 2025. This credit can be used toward their next service request. A participating vendor has been assigned to the claim, and the customer may contact the vendor directly to schedule the repair.

      Complaint: 23281960

      I am rejecting this response because: I have yet to have my refrigerator fixed. As well to note I advised I was afraid to hire someone on my own that I would not be paid by them to refund the money to hire someone else. . As well to note I talked to several managers before they even ordered the part and I had already paid my portion to their team member my fee for filing a claim. I do not have the money to pay for someone to fix this. I have been quoted $240 on top of what I have paid. I just want my refrigerator fixed.

      I recently purchased a plan and tried to file my first claim. The claim was filed on Monday morning around 8am via their phone system since I was unable to log into the app. I then called for password assistance and was helped and able to l9gin. I saw that the claim was incorrect and submitted a correct claim. The next day there was no change. I called and they said it would be handled within 24 to 48 hours. Too l9ng but i waited. By Wednesday afternoon there was still no change. I called again and the *** told me it was up to 48 business hours...over a week!!! I told her that was not what the contract said and she said there was nothing she could do. I called again we'd evening to see if I could get help and the gentleman tries to sell me a full year package. I declined and he informed me there was no one there to help. When I asked if it was an emergent issue like sewer backing up he said there was not anyone there to help. So...not sure what this company is thinking is acceptable. I can't get service after paying for 2 monthly installments. I want my money back...this company is fraudulently selling services they don't actually deliver.

      Complaint ***********
      Thank you for reaching out regarding the above-referenced complaint. We take every concern seriously and appreciate the opportunity to address and learn from customer feedback.
      The customer submitted a claim on April 28, 2025, for a clothes dryer, citing a loose door seal. As per the Service Agreement, door seals are considered a non-covered condition and were communicated as such. The customer later reported that the drum was not spinning correctly. A participating vendor was dispatched on May 1, 2025, and identified drum bearing failure as the issue.
      The policy was activated on April 19, 2025. Given that the failure occurred only nine days into the policy period, it was determined that the issue existed prior to coverage and is therefore classified as a known or unknown pre-existing condition, which is excluded under the Service Agreement.
      In an effort to assist the customer, we offered a $150 goodwill payment despite the non-covered nature of the issue. This offer was declined. The customer subsequently requested to cancel the policy on May 7, 2025, which was processed the same day in accordance with the Terms & Conditions.
      All claims were reviewed and handled per the terms of the Service Agreement, which outlines both coverage inclusions and exclusions. We remain committed to providing exceptional service and upholding the values that guide our company.

      On 11/13/2024, I put in a repair order on my dishwasher.
      2.
      SP had great difficulty finding someone to do the repair, and sent out two companies that could not do the work. This went on for about a month. We got the impression that no companies wanted to work with them.
      3.
      SP finally told me to pay for the repairs myself, and they would reimburse me. This was after I had already paid their repairman $100.
      4.
      I had the dishwasher repaired and submitted their paperwork for reimbursement of $187 on Dec. 25, 2024.
      5.
      I never received a reimbursement check.
      6.
      I've called numerous times, and they finally said that a check had been sent on March 13, 2025, but I have not gotten any check as of March 30, 2025.
      7.
      I requested that they cancel my account and no longer charge me the monthly fee, but they refuse to do this.

      Thank you for contacting us regarding the above-referenced complaint. We treat each complaint with the utmost respect and value all feedback as an opportunity to improve the service we provide to our valued customers.
      We understand that there are always two sides to every situation, and we are committed to reaching fair and reasonable resolutions for all parties involved.
      The customer filed a claim on November 13, 2024, for a dishwasher that was not draining. A participating vendor was assigned on November 14, 2024. On November 18, 2024, the customer informed us that the assigned vendor was unable to provide service. As a result, a new participating vendor was assigned on November 20, 2024.
      On November 22, 2024, the customer advised us that the new vendor had visited the home but was unable to complete a full diagnosis because the dishwasher was mounted to the wall. A third vendor was subsequently assigned, and they diagnosed the issue as a failed wash pump kit.
      SPHW ordered the necessary part and shipped it directly to the customer with instructions to coordinate installation with the vendor. On December 19, 2024, the customer contacted us, stating that although the vendor had scheduled two appointments, the repair was still not completed. To avoid further delay, we offered the option of assigning a new vendor or pursuing a reimbursement route.
      Under our reimbursement process, the customer may hire a local vendor to diagnose and repair the issue. However, the vendor must contact SPHW prior to performing any repairs to confirm the failure, parts, and pricing. If the failure is determined to be covered, we issue a reimbursement check upon receipt of the paid invoice.
      We received the paid invoice and approved the reimbursement on December 30, 2024. Reimbursement checks are mailed within 30–45 business days. The check was mailed on March 13, 2025. On April 2, 2025, the check was returned to sender. Upon verifying the address (which was correct), we reissued the check and mailed it the same day.
      While we do not have control over **** delivery, we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
      The policy was cancelled as per the Terms & Conditions of the policy on 4/2/2025. In an effort to provide good customer service we waived the $50.00 administrative fee at the time of cancellation.
      All claims were processed in accordance with the terms and conditions outlined in the Service Agreement, which includes both inclusions and exclusions. We remain committed to providing a positive customer experience and doing what is right for our customers, contractors, employees, and the company as a whole.
      We stand by our founding ideals to deliver industry-leading home warranty products and exceptional service to the customers we are privileged to serve. If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please contact us at ###-###-####.

      To whom it may concern, I Johnny Price III have a contract with Service Plus Home Warranty. Earlier this month my garage door stopped working. I contacted them to get it fixed after a couple of weeks.
      finally assigned a technician. The technician came out. I paid $125 to the technician for the service call. Now about a week and a half later on Friday, March 28, 2025. The technician called me and informed me that I would have to pay extra $200 to him to finish replacing and repairing my garage door opener. This morning I reached out to Service Plus Home Warranty about why would I have to pay in another $200 for an item which is the garage door opener that is covered under their warranty. I was informed by the service representative that helped me that they is going to pay $500, which he also informed me that they was helping assist me with getting the garage door replaced. I asked him to explain to me.What do he mean by Service Plus Home Warranty assisting me with service that they should cover, I also stated I would not pay another $200 because I have already paid them $1300 in advance for their services. He told me that that’s what it’s gonna be. I informed him I would like to have a refund of my money and cancel their services. He told me again. I am not getting a refund and that I am bonded and have a nice day and he hung up the phone. So at this point, I just want to get my garage door fixed or get a refund of my money.

      customers.
      We understand that every situation has multiple

      parties involved.
      The customer submitted a claim on March 8, 2025, for a
      garage door opener that was not functioning properly. Our participating vendor
      inspected the issue and determined that the logic board had failed.
      Unfortunately, the required part was no longer available.
      In accordance with the terms of the Service Agreement, when
      parts are no longer available, we offer a cash payment based on the average
      cost of parts and labor for the covered repair. We also reserve the right to
      attempt to locate parts at any time. The Service Agreement clearly states that
      we are not liable for the replacement of entire systems or appliances due to
      the obsolescence or unavailability of one or more integral parts. However, we
      do provide reimbursement based on a reasonable allowance for the fair value of
      comparable parts.
      On March 25, 2025, we offered a cash alternative payment
      (CAP) of $500.00, payable directly to the participating vendor, to be applied
      toward the replacement of the garage door opener. Any remaining balance beyond
      the CAP amount is the customer's responsibility.
