#70 of 125 chaz1pro is a dealer! by chaz1pro May 04, 2004 (7:49 am)
A note to all.....I'm a dealer! I too have alot at stake. I have a good reputation, a strong presence in my community, and a great sense of responsibility for my customers that have purchased Smart Choice from us. I cannot get any assistance from our Attorney General and have been doing my own investigation. I have been staying up with this with the help of Dick Piersol at the Lincoln Journal Star, our Delta Group Representative, and other key contacts. The latest information in writing is at http://www.nwig.com/Report%20to%20US%20Court%20and%20public.pdf this will assist you in letting you understand that the end is hopefull near. Also you can go to NWIG's website http://www.nwig.com/ and scroll towards the bottom for the latest updates. Good Luck to all, and lets hope for a fair resolution for all contract holders.
#71 of 125 The bottom line? by scammedinpa May 05, 2004 (7:55 pm)
Chaz1pro, what's the bottom line on the Smartchoice contracts? Are they really being honored? Should the dealerships who sold them be aware of this settlement by now? Thanks.-Ken
#72 of 125 response from pa.attorney general by gpo1 May 09, 2004 (9:21 am)
after filing a complaint with the pa. attorney general regarding my smart choice contract i received a letter which stated in part,    the Bureau of Consumer Protection met with the former owners of this car dealership to review his losses and profits regarding the sale of National Warranty Corporation leases.     our office remained concerned over whether the dealer may have profited from the sale of these contracts and should relinquish such profits in light of the closing of the warranty company.we have reviewed our records of the former owner of the dealership and are satisfied that his losses in addressing several dozen claims such as yours outweigh any profits made through these sales.it is our determination that further action by this office against the dealer is not feasible under the circumstances.

I called Prism Solutions and the (very nice)person there told me that they are administering the contracts for several dealerships, mostly in New York, I think. They are processing claims to determine what gets covered, just like NWIG was doing before they went under. However, Prism is not actually paying any claims. That is up to the dealership.
#74 of 125 I'm screwed, too! by msblue Jun 17, 2004 (4:18 pm)
I bought my Smart Choice warranty through Consumer Automotive Consultants, and for the first 9 payments or so, it was deducted automatically from my credit card. I wonder if there is any recourse there? Also, was wondering if there really is ANY hope of getting reimbursed for this mess? How unlike ENRON is this, really? I'm sure there are a few "lucky" souls relaxing in high style, while the rest of us pay for their lifestyle!

Replying to: markpedley (Mar 16, 2004 2:56 pm) I sued my dealer in small claims court (Connecticut) and won. My contract stated "The contract is between me and the Selling Dealer" when I found out smart choice was in bankruptcy I read my contract and it had a cancellation clause. I followed the directions and sent a request for a refund. They refused so I went to small claims court. Their argument was that I had to get my refund from smart choice not them they said they had to service my vehicle but refused to refund me the money. We had a hearing on 6/15 and I just received notice they must refund me $1300   The key to winning was that my contract was with them the "selling dealer" not with SmartChoice.

Replying to: eal (Jun 28, 2004 8:46 am) Wow! That's great! Did your contract also state that "some of the Selling Dealer's Obligations may be assigned to SC&E Administrative Services?" Replies to this message: scammedinpa (Sep 12, 2004 8:19 pm)
#77 of 125 Sueing the Dealers by scammedinpa Jul 24, 2004 (8:20 pm)
Hss anyone else sued the dealership? My contract also states that the contract is between "me and the selling dealer", but adds that SOME of the dealers obligations may be assigned to SC&E Administrative services (Smartchoice). I am in Pennsylvania. My dealer says they will not honor the warranty.
