I think this came up a little while ago but I'm not quite sure. Feel free to point me to a different thread.

My friends told me about a service plan that is advertised in the Daily Sun. It didn't sound expensive and I believe they said it covered everything electrical.

Does anyone know the plan name or the company that stands behind it?

I will research it online as best I can and report what I find.

Does anyone have a plan as described? Are you happy? Did they honor any claims?

thank-you

Review the fine print very carefully, and check with BBB and Seniors against crime to see what the companies history is. In general, consumer reports and similar organizations suggest avoiding these types of extended warranties.
Hope this helps.

You might check with the home warranty department, maybe they can lead you in the right direction.

I found the other thread. People are talking about Broward. I looked Broward review up.

Better Business Bureau gave them an A+ rating. Broward Factory Service Business Review in Fort Lauderdale, FL - South East Florida BBB (http://www.bbb.org/south-east-florida/business-reviews/appliances-major-service-and-repair/broward-factory-service-in-fort-lauderdale-fl-11010298#reasonrating)

Jim M. from The Villages, FL on 04/17/2015 submitted this positive review: https://www.customerlobby.com/reviews/31437/broward-factory-service/review/587895/

There is also 30 more very positive reviews on the same site.

I will see the home warranty department and get their input and contact Citizens Against Crime. I know they can't make recommendations but they can tell me if there are a lot of complaints.

Is this the add in The Daily Sun? I cut and pasted it from Browards Web Site. The sale ends on may 31 ---2013. hmmmmmmmmmm

It sounds like a good deal [maybe even too good]. Whirlpool wants almost that much just for my microwave.
