Upon signing up for this warranty service, I was assured that the maximum limit of liability would be the value of my vehicle $4385-$6000 by the sales rep ***** However, during a recent claim (Claim Number ******), I was informed that the actual coverage limit is only $2300, which is substantially lower than what was agreed upon during the signing up for the service. This discrepancy has caused considerable inconvenience and financial strain.I have attempted to resolve this issue through the customer service department, but despite multiple communications, the problem remains unresolved. I relied on the accuracy of the representations, I am deeply disappointed by this oversight and the subsequent lack of accountability.Business response

Toco Warranty takes this and all complaints seriously and apologizes to the customer for a less than optimal experience. Toco is investigating the surroundings of this complaint as it has our immediate attention.
Toco is committed to honoring the contract in all facets and provides all consumers the ability to review the contract for 30-days with a full refund option to ensure that all parties are aligned. While vehicle values vary based upon the year/make/model/mileage of the vehicle, the vehicle's condition also plays a role in determining the actual cash value (***) of a vehicle. Toco does not inspect vehicles prior to enrollment and cannot verify the condition of a vehicle, so determining the *** is performed at the time of a claim. Per the contract:
LIMITS OF LIABILITY
Per Repair Visit Our liability for any one (1) Repair Visit shall in no event exceed the trade-in value of Your Vehicle at the time of said Repair Visit, as listed in the ************* Guide.
Aggregate The total of all claims and benefits paid or payable while this Contract is in force shall not exceed Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000.00) in total claim cost. Your Contract must be paid current and in good standing for any claim to be eligible; all breakdowns must have occurred during the contract period to be reimbursed.Toco agents may do their best to determine a vehicles estimated value at the time of enrollment, as a customer convenience, it is the responsibility of the customer to determine if the Toco contract fulfills their needs based upon the terms of the contract. This is why the customer has ******* to review and accept.
The customer has since been cancelled, per customer request. In lieu of the issue, Toco has provided the customer a full refund via check. Toco apologizes for the issue.

Bought a used car and on 9/15/23 purchased an extended warranty through TOCO. . Called and asked if I needed an inspection for coverage. Rep assured I did not, that as long as I waited the 90 days ans **** miles, there would be no issues if problems arose. ON 12/17/23 and **** miles (past waiting period), the transmission went out. Inspector said it looked like transmission was attempted to be repaired previously, and as a result, it was a preexisting condition and they did not cover repairs. we made NO repairs to vehicle after purchasing. I said isn't that why people buy insurance IN CASE there are issues with a vehicle??? They denied claim and refused to help. They look for ways not to pay claims. We are out $4600 for new transmission.Business response

I initially wanted to cancel my contract with this company the day after I got it so I could receive my full $103.75 back for the first payment within their policy of ********************************************************************************************************************************** 15 days to go over the items to see if I had anything that might not be covered based on my previous car repair history and frequency. I also enrolled with the understanding that I would get money back for performing an oil change based on a promo the enrollment representative said they were adding on my account (about $40 for the oil change). I didnt get that phone call but still kept it and after the 30 days went by, I asked about a repair service I paid out of pocket for which included an oil change. I got a small reimbursement of $34.40 because of the deductible being taken out, which doesnt compare to what I paid but I was still within my waiting period so I didnt have much of a leg to stand on. I decided after that I no longer want the coverage with them. I have been attempting to cancel my coverage with this company for multiple days now and they keep not accepting my cancellation request, telling me I have to call in and speak to someone in the **************************** Per the terms outlined in my contract it showed I have to send a picture of my odometer and a written request, which I did on 10/20/2023. I received an email on 10/30/2023 stating my account is still active when it shouldnt be. I have taken the proper steps to cancel my policy per the contract terms and want no further contract with this company.Business response

**** appreciates the attention brought to this situation and looks forward to finding an amicable solution to the customer grievance. Initial investigation shows that the claim was held up due to missing relevant maintenance documents that are needed in order to move forward with the claim.
Per the agreement with the customer: It is required that verifiable receipts showing the maintenance(s) performed, date and mileage when services were performed be
available for the service work performed on YOUR Vehicle. If YOU perform YOUR own service, YOU must retain verifiable receipts proving purchases of all required parts and materials necessary to perform the required maintenance; confirming the date and mileage for the services performed. Maintenance and/or service work receipts will be requested should the Administrator determine them to be relevant to the repair(s).Toco supervisors have spoken with ********** and offered potential solutions, but wants to ensure that we have done everything possible to assist. Toco is committed to customer success and looks forward to finding a way to resolve this situation.
