Warranty Denied ยท Cinch Home Services

Cinch Home Services denied my claim: how the appeal works

Cinch Home Services is part of Cinch Home Services (formerly Cross Country Home Services), based in Boca Raton, Florida. This page is about the process its published contracts set out and the regulator that licenses it. Your own plan controls; read its dispute section before you send anything.

The appeal

Ask for the diagnosis report and the plan section. Cinch plans include a coverage-cap structure by system, so a 'cap reached' denial should state the cap and what was already paid against it; ask for the accounting. Written appeal, certified, to the claims address in your plan.

Arbitration, small claims, and the home-state regulator

Arbitration clause with a small-claims carve-out. Florida-based, so Florida's Office of Insurance Regulation and Department of Financial Services take complaints as the home-state regulator.

The ladder, for this company

  1. Written appeal by certified mail within 30 days of the denial, with the claim number, asking for the technician's report and the clause relied on.
  2. Complaint to your state's regulator (find it) and, if different, the company's home-state regulator named above.
  3. Public complaint through the Better Business Bureau, which the company answers in public.
  4. Small claims for the gap if it fits under your state's cap; otherwise the arbitration named in the plan.
