Warranty Direct by jspiczak

My sister had a warranty with Warranty Direct. They never paid claims. She had to fight with them every time. She tried to cancel her policy and every time she called they left her on hold. It turned into a big mess. Makes me wonder about the little meter on the website. That must be how many people are on hold, trying to cancel their policies.
People advised her to go to the insurance company to file her complaint. This is when she found out, the insurance company (Interstate) is located in the same building! I am sure she would get alot accomplished there!

I got them to pay a claim a few weeks ago-after banging my head against a wall for a day or two, and playing with adjusters. Read my post #1836 on the Honda Warranty thread for details of my last phone conversation with them. It was pleasant!
I'm not surprised that Interstate and WD share a building. They probably share a few upper level employees.
 
I checked out Certified's website. In business since 1997! Who Hoo! I can't find out who they are backed by, but their contracts look like the standard junk.
Buy at your own risk.

I've done business with Certified CC and I realized he's just an agent and sells the contracts. My warranty company continued to pay claims but decided they would not continue to settle with the dealer directly - as Certified's web site claims, that meant I'd have to front the money and submit the receipts for reimbursement I'd get paid but it would take 4 - 6 weeks - Dave at certified didn't do anything to help or assist - I would NOT recommend working with him...

The interesting thing about the extended warranty business is how the same people are allowed to do the same thing over and over again without ever being prosecuted.
 
At Automotive Professionals Inc (API) you have the Hawks, who are screwing people by the thousands there but still able to sell warranties through Intercontinental Warranty Services (IWS). Also coming out of API is William Rosenbach and Larry Roseberry. Check out the association there with Heritage Warranty and CarCare... and now at "Million Mile Motor".

A little birdie whispered in my ear that starting the middle of next month you will be able to purchase a 7yr 200K mile warranty on Ford Diesel Trucks. It will be a limited warranty. More to follow as the birdie tells me more.
