Continental Warranty Reviews

Huge mistake
I made the HUGE mistake of contacting Continental Warranty about a newly purchased used vehicle. I filled in out their online survey, and a few others. I got a call from Continental Warranty the next day, and spoke to a sales rep, and informed them I was looking into my options. He asked what kind of quotes I was getting, and would call me back when he was more informed about what they may offer me, and the quotes I had already gotten. Later that night Continental Warranty and their sales rep called me back. I informed her I had spoken to other gentlemen at the company and was waiting to hear back from him. She still wanted to get me in their system, and go over the policy, and coverage's. That was fine, but after 15 minutes, and her giving me a quote $1000 higher the everyone else. I ask her to email me the policy so I could look it over and compare it to the others, and I would base my decision after I looked up each company. All of a sudden I would guess her boss jumps on the line, and starts asking where I 'm doing my research, and had a total fit over the fact that I was looking them up in the Illinois State Dept website. He was telling me to look them up on the BBB. When I refused and told him I wanted to make sure they were licensed in my state, he lost it! All of a sudden I was some dumb female to him, and that I had no clue as to what I was talking about. He was asking who the competitors underwriters where, and a lot more.

Final when I got a chance to speak I told that the other company could not offer me a better package or price. I told him that if he wanted my business to email the policy, Jim cut me off mid sentence, and was ranting and raving on the phone when he asked me who was going to look over my policy for me. But I never could finish a sentence because he kept talking over me, and asking how I like it, and how I felt when someone cut me off. (I never interupted him, Not Once even with his demeaning attitude).

I finally let him have it ! When I informed him that I was not some stupid female, and that I worked at an Attorney's office, and that I 'm sure one of the Attorney's would love to talk to him, and discuss the policy and his attitude. And then told Jim not to contact me ever, and that I would take my business elsewhere, and hung up on him.

Warranty dispute
I purchased a continental warranty for my truck. After 4 months I had oil and coolant mixing and the truck keep overheating. I called Continental and they referred me to a shop that they deal with. The shop claimed they fixed the issue. After 3 weeks the same issue occured. My check oil light came on and the truck overheated again. There was no oil leaks on my pavement. Turns out that the oil and coolant mixed again.

Again Continental told me to go the another 1 of their shops. My truck has been in and out of 'Their' shops 8 times for the same reason. All shops claimed they 'Fixed the issue'. The last time I tried to put in a claim at 'Their' shop my policy was cancelled. They looked for any reason to cancel the policy. They claimed they could verify the oil change reciepts.

How can they not verify 'Their' shop reciepts and Jiffy Lube. Continental has poor people skills. All are idiots! I had to take my truck to a real repair shop and they diagnosed the issue. The same issue their shop claimed they repaired numerous times. Cost me $900 out of pocket. They since won't return any of my phone calls or reimburse me for the repair that 'Their' idiot shops couldn't fix.

I would not recommend Continental for anyone. You are wasting your money and you will be dealing with thieves!! There are several other quality warranty companies out there and their fee's are more reasonable. Also you will have your issue fixed the first time around!!

Even after 2 months of emailing and leaving messages no one has the professionalism to return a call. They are nothing but frauds and they use crackhead repair shops that don't fix the issue.

They are out of business and taking unauthorized funds from mybank account.
Continental Warranty has gone out of business, they sold my contract to some other company and this company has been making unauthorized debits from my Bank account.

I requested my money back and they are telling me that, I had the first 30 days to get a refund.

I've paid one year for this coverage, which totals around $700.00 and they are to keep all of my money, I don't think so.

Scam and lies
2002 Ford SUV was sold 06/02/2008. Notified Continental warranty by faxing all information require based on their cancellation policy. I was informed by Ms Tereas, customer dept. that I am due a refund for $590.00 and it takes 12 weeks to process the cancellation so approx. Aug 27, 08 the check will be sent out. Emails sent to continental, certified mail sent and absolutely No response from Continental. They are one Big JOKE. I made a call to them 01/07/2009 and spoke with Mr B and he voiced how frustrated he is about refunds not going out to customers in a timely manner.

Awful experience
I had been looking around for a warranty for my 2004 Mitsubishi w/105, 000 miles. I received a call from Continental and several other companies but for some reason decided to talk with Continental. Like others that have written their experience with them I as pressured into giving a $295 deposit in order to get a complete warranty Agreement. I must have been off my medication - I really never do something like this. That was May 23, 2008.

I took the Agreement o my mechanic and had said he didn't think it was comprehensive enough and couldn't understand what the deal was with putting 'the special sauce' in the radiator (I'm being very kind here). So on June 24, 2008 I called the manufacturer and Continental as required in the agreement. I was told I would receive the refund in 3-4 weeks

July 30, 2008 I call to inquire about the refund and was told it would hit in the next 5 days.

August 5, 2008 no refund so I call again. Here is the great part; I was told that they were running behind and had no idea when I would receive a refund. When I said I was going to deny the original charge they said that was the best thing to do. Whatever.

Rip off
I have also sent over 5 emails because you can't get through to them on the phone. I have been waiting since 06/12/08 for my refund, and I have filed a complaint with the BBB. If that doesn't help, I plan to file a complaint with the appropriate state government office, go to my local tv station, and do whatever I can to warn other military families and others not to trust them. I'm a pretty easy going person, and if Continental warranty would have just responded to 1 email, I would not be this mad.

Rip off
I ordered this warranty for my 2001 Honda Odyssey with 135000 miles on it. My salesman went over and over everything that it covered. I've had 2 major repairs since I purchased the warranty and neither was covered - a catalytic converter and the air condition compressor. When I called about coverage, they said only the engine, the transmission, and the water pump are covered. What a joke!!! Both of those are major parts. I would have thought if the a/c wasn't covered, at least the catalytic converter would be, it's engine related!! Obviously not. I spend way to much money to get the minimal coverage I have.

I immediately asked for a refund and I was told I would have to provide about a copy of my contract, proof of mileage, date I want the contract canceled, and I could send if via mail or fax, then they would tell me how much my refund will be, according to the mileage and date of cancellation. I want a full refund. It's a joke!! BEWARE!! I should have checked the internet immediately. My salesman was excellent, and excellent scam artist. BE VERY CAREFUL!!

Stay away
Their 30 days unconditional money back guarantee is totally bogus. I have been trying to get my deposit refund for nearly 6 weeks and still have not seen a dime. After numerous email and phone calls, I had to submit a credit card dispute with my bank -- hopefully my bank will have better luck than I do. These Continental Warranty people are nothing more than cons artists. Stay away from them!!! You have been warned!

There are many other credible extended warranty businesses out there. Please do your diligent research to avoid the unnecessary headaches.

Just another pissed off customer trying to get even.

Beware
I was talked into buying this great sounding warranty (I’m a sucker) &later realized that I would never be able to afford it. As soon as I received the paperwork in the mail I called & cancelled my warranty. The guy told me they needed a written cancellation, so I emailed them on 06/09. I just received my refunded down payment today 07/23, 43 days from canceling. I did call &ask where my refund was & the one time they said it should be there Friday... that was a load of crap. Meanwhile, I received several overdraft fees in my account, which was my stupid fault, because I actually thought they'd get my money back to me at a reasonable time. They said 4-6 weeks for the refund, it was 6 weeks & 1 day. They had my money sitting in some account making them money for 6 weeks. Waste of Time!

Scams
I filled an online add in order to receive some magazine subscriptions with some rock tickets I purchased. One of them was for and extended warranty for my truck. The next day or so I had received a call from them and was amazed by the total package that they were willing to give me.

Going against all that I felt, I gave in to the $245 investment up front; that was unconditionally refundable within the 45 day waiting period. Which I haven't received back yet more than a month after I waited the 15 days it took to initiate any eligible work, and the six to eight weeks of "processing time".

I called on the 19th day because my alternator went out which I was kind of happy about since my warranty had just kicked in. I took it to the shop and Con-Warranty said I haven't driven 1K miles that was "in the contract" (which they never told me about) and I was pissed to say the least. I bought the alternator my self and did all the work.

I have been at them for weeks to try to get my refund and with no avail I keep trying. They say it will come this week, then next week, then the week after...
