  More info

  I was complaining about their customer service and how they failed to link my account number to my actual account. A customer service manager called me back to sort out the payment. His name was *****************************. He was very rude on the phone and unprofessional when I was asking about the services that were included with the towing packages. He ended up stating that they would not insure me or my yacht after I asked a question about a scenario. He accused me of being a schemer and said I will not let you purchase Boat US insurance. What a joke, I asked for his last name and he said he didn't have to give it to me. I am completely unsatisfied with the service from Boat US and have purchased a different tow insurance. I am also waiting on $175 return. $99 return and $200 return. After I got off the phone with ***************************** I called to set up a package only to find out that he must have black balled me in the system.

  To Whom It May Concern:
  

  We are in receipt of the complaint (# 20021358) submitted by *** ******* concerning our customer service and linking his account numbers. Please let this letter serve as a response to the complaint against our company.

  During our attempt to reconcile the payments / customer service issues for *** *******, we learned that his vessel was potentially non-operative. Our towing service agreement specifically excludes a vessel that is disabled because of pre-existing conditions. Based on the information provided, the decision was made to cancel all Memberships and to fully refund *** *******. *** ******* was notified by our Customer Care Manager, ****** ********.
  

  *** ******* was refunded the total amount of $324 ($25 paid on 03/29, $99 paid on 04/28 and $200 paid on 05/10). The refund was issued to his credit card account in two separate transactions (ref # ******** [$124 on 05/08] and ref # 21071291 [$200 on 05/10]). *** ******* reached out to us inquiring about his refund via social media. We responded to both inquiries with the same information provided above.
  

  Please feel free to contact me directly should you have any questions.

  Sincerely,

  Manager, Boat Operations

  BoatU.S.
