Reimbursement/Claims Rejections  

Numerous reviews against First American Home Warranty Corporation claimed to have their coverage denied despite following procedures and having all applications documented. Even with repairs that required immediate attention, the insurer was adamant about having repairs and replacements approved before getting the repairs done. Additionally, First American Home Warranty Corporation rejected appliance and system claims duly covered under the customers’ contracts. 

Vague Contract Coverage

Aside from the incessant denials, First American Home Warranty Corporation consumers lamented about their contracts. According to reviews, the company stipulated restrictions that weren’t in their contracts like supposedly uncovered damages and replacements. 

Lousy Service Technicians 

Other reviews detailed service technicians who barely touched their broken appliances and systems. According to an account, the consumer had to pay $70 just to get a broken appliance diagnosed only to be sent a technician who closed the claim without even checking for damaged repairs. This consequently resulted in the consumer being denied reimbursement. 

Poor Customer Service

Consumers of First American Home Warranty Corporation also criticized the insurance giant for its lousy customer relations. The reviews showed customers airing their issues out to First American Home Warranty Corporation’s agents over the phone but were met with petty compensations, broken promises, and unresolved issues.

Unfortunately, denials, problematic contact coverage, unprofessional service technicians, and poor customer service complaints are just the beginning for First American Home Warranty Corporation. The insurer’s customers are left wondering what options they have regarding their consumer rights.

Agruss Law Firm, LLC gets results–including zero balances, refunds, and other compensation. 

Here’s How to Make Big Companies Listen

It can be frustrating when you rely on a service and don’t get the results you’ve paid for. Big companies make mistakes every day and not only is it their fault, but it can also cost you money, time, and leave you with big headaches. 

Have you tried calling First American Home Warranty Corporation to address an issue, only to be told that the representative has no authority to do so? Or maybe you’ve tried talking to someone higher up in the company, only to be ignored, dismissed, or they take too long, continuing to waste your precious time. Maybe you’ve sent an email to the company which only resulted in a prefabricated response or they never follow through with what they’ve promised. 

When you’re limited in your choices for service providers or you’re locked into a contract, what can you do?

Fortunately, you do have options. 

Use Arbitration to Settle Your Complaint

Most companies like First American Home Warranty Corporation have an arbitration clause in their contracts to prevent being taken to court for traditional litigation. This is actually an advantage for the consumer. When you request an arbitration hearing, an independent third-party (the arbitrator) with knowledge of the type of situation involved will listen to the facts from both sides and make an impartial, binding decision. First American Home Warranty Corporation will have to do a lot of work and there is no guarantee that they will have a successful outcome. 

Arbitration is Fast, Inexpensive, and Private

Arbitration with First American Home Warranty Corporation is conducted through the American Arbitration Association (AAA). According to the AAA Consumer Due Process Protocol, arbitration through AAA will comply with their Statement of Principles, which includes:

  • The process is fundamentally fair – All parties are entitled to qualified, competent, impartial arbitrators who will conduct a fair hearing.
  • You get access to all relevant information – This includes reasonable costs, confidentiality, reasonable time limits, and meeting times and/or locations that are agreeable to both parties.
  • Transparency – AAA provides clear arbitration agreements and the ability for each side to hire their own representation.
  • Just process – Arbitration allows the arbitrator to award the same relief as traditional litigation in a binding decision. 
  • Alternative to arbitration – Mediation and the ability to take the case to small claims court should be available in some cases.

Arbitration Gives you Control and Leverage

When First American Home Warranty Corporation is alerted that you plan to pursue arbitration, they know it will cost them money out of pocket. Not only do they run the risk of losing the case, but they will also pay for their mistake(s) and the arbitration itself. This gives you more leverage with your demands. 

If First American Home Warranty Corporation doesn’t meet those demands and you have a real complaint, Agruss Law Firm, LLC can help by representing you in arbitration where you will get a fair, just, and transparent hearing.

Control and Leverage Triggers Faster Settlements

Large companies like First American Home Warranty Corporation don’t like the uncertainty and loss of control that comes with arbitration. Not only do they lose the advantage in the situation, but you’re also on equal footing with them in the eyes of arbitration. 

The first step in taking on First American Home Warranty Corporation is to formally raise your complaint. The lawyers at Agruss Law Firm, LLC can help you to do so. We will send a letter of demands to the corporate offices of First American Home Warranty Corporation, letting them know that you’re ready to begin arbitration if a satisfactory resolution is not achieved. Typically, this is 30 days, but it will depend on your specific contract with First American Home Warranty Corporation. 

Approximately 50% of cases will settle before proceeding to an arbitration hearing during this time. However, if First American Home Warranty Corporation doesn’t offer a reasonable settlement within the appropriate time frame, the next step would be filing a case with AAA. Agruss Law Firm, LLC will not only put together the necessary paperwork for arbitration, but we will also help you take the next steps in the arbitration process. 

UDAAP and Arbitration

UDAAP is an acronym representing laws that prohibit Unfair, Deceptive, or Abusive Acts or Practices in the context of trade or business. This includes misrepresentation, deception, false advertising, or false promises. These laws emerged following the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act that was enacted in response to the 2008 financial crisis. The ultimate goal with these laws is geared towards protecting consumers involved in financial transactions, educating consumers on their rights, and allowing them access to information and resources to best inform their decisions.

UDAAP laws are regulated by two organizations, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The FTC expanded the initial UDAAP laws in 2004 to include unfair and deceptive acts and practices. Some standards for unfairness, in particular, include if it causes or is likely to cause substantial injury to consumers, the injury is not reasonably avoidable by consumers, and the injury is not outweighed by countervailing benefits to consumers or to competition.

Every state has UDAAP laws, which can vary widely. However, the lawyers at Agruss Law Firm, LLC understand these laws and can use them to get compensation for deceptive practices, representing consumers throughout the country in cases of arbitration at no cost to them. The company will not only pay the consumer, but they will also pay my fees as well. The consumer will never pay me a cent.

If you’re dealing with an issue with First American Home Warranty Corporation, you might try filing a complaint with the BBB or the customer service team with First American Home Warranty Corporation. Unfortunately, these avenues won’t always lead to a successful resolution for you, the customer. Instead, you may want to consider an experienced arbitration lawyer to take on your case. 

Arbitration is a very useful tool for resolving disputes, and Agruss Law Firm, LLC can help. With our expert guidance, we bring the big companies to the table and provide the support needed to get your bills corrected, credit reports fixed, improper fees refunded, and more. Let us pick up the sword for you; you have nothing to lose.

How Do I File a Complaint Against First American Home Warranty Corporation?

We will use your state’s UDAAP law to file a complaint in Arbitration on your behalf at no cost to you. UDAAP laws include misrepresentation, deception, false advertising, or false promises. Under your state’s UDAAP law, you are likely entitled to money damages for your actual damages.  Plus, the other side will pay our fees and costs.  You will not pay us a penny.  These laws emerged following the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act that was enacted in response to the 2008 financial crisis. The ultimate goal with these laws is geared towards protecting consumers involved in financial transactions, educating consumers on their rights, and allowing them access to information and resources to best inform their decisions.

First American refused to make timely repairs, used substandard contractors and wrongfully denied claims. Dishwasher repair claim filed on May 4th, contractor diagnosed issue May 10th, Service reschduled to May 16th, Service rescheduled again to May 19th, Contractor ordere wrong replacement part, Service rescheduled again to May 25th. I denied further service, and hired my own contractor, who cam and fixed the dishwasher all in one day. Contacted First American, but they denied my claim saying that they are already working with a contractor so they cannot change anything in the claim.

I put in a complaint through First American Home Warranty for an HVAC system not working. They sent out a technician with no service vehicle just a private car and very limited tools. The technician did not know what they were there for and after doing some research on the company here they did not have a physical location that was listed with the state contractors board. No one ever returned phone calls. I eventually convinced first American to reassign to another company. Contractor came out said the system would need to be replaced. After over 20 hours of phone calls with first American and additional phone calls with the contractor I finally was able to get the system installed. I was charged $800 for items I believe were covered and work that was not completed per the service technicians admitting the work was not done. Several covered items were not paid for by the company. The contractor failed to install the correct Parts which I believe damage the system and they later came out and corrected. The system never operated correctly after the contractor left. I requested three to five times in writing and over the phone to the company and contractor from itemized receipt or invoice showing what work was done and they said they could not provide this to me. I\'ve been going back and forth with first American for hours and hours on the phone over months to no avail.

They will not fix my furnace they sent out one contactor who spent maybe 5 minutes working on my furnace. Soon as they left it stopped working again. I have had to call first american 3 times for them to just make me wait another week to get someone to order and replace it. They refuse to give me my money back only offer me to have a space heater reimbursed. I also explained to them I have a four month old baby who needs the heater to survive and they didn\'t care.
