What to send the regulator

Small claims in Mississippi

Justice Court, generally up to $3,500 as of 2025; confirm on the court's site. confirm Most home warranty contracts require arbitration but carve out small claims. If the gap between the quote and the offer fits under the cap, small claims is usually the shorter road; the company has to send someone or settle.

In order

  1. Written appeal by certified mail within 30 days of the denial date, asking for the technician's report and the exact contract clause. Keep the receipt.
  2. Regulator complaint the same week, with the appeal attached. Regulators generally require the company to respond in writing within a few weeks.
  3. Public complaint through the Better Business Bureau. The large companies answer nearly all of them.
  4. Small claims for the gap if it fits under the cap; otherwise the arbitration the contract names, where the consumer's filing fee is capped by the arbitration provider's consumer rules.
