• Appliance Discount Program —If you need to replace an appliance, 2-10 HBW offers discounts on GE and Whirlpool appliance retail prices.

30-Day Money-Back Guarantee

Coverage begins on the Effective Date, which may be up to 30 days from the date of purchase. If you cancel before the Effective Date, a full refund will be issued. After that, fees will be deducted from your refund. While this gives you the freedom to cancel during the 30-day waiting period before your warranty coverage begins, a full refund is not available once it starts.

The following restrictions may apply:

• If you cancel up to 30 days after the effective date, you are eligible for a refund, but are responsible to pay a $75 processing fee and any amount that the provider paid for service.
• If you cancel more than 30 days after the effective date, you will receive a pro-rata refund for the remaining unused portion of the contract, less any amounts that the company paid for service and the $75 processing fee.

24/7 Claim Submission

2-10 Home Buyers Warranty provides 24/7 service to its customers. Homeowners may submit a service request 24/7 through their online portal or over the phone.

A service contractor will be dispatched to schedule a time, Monday through Friday during normal business hours, to diagnose and repair the eligible system or appliance.

Exclusive “Even-If” Service Fee Guarantee

2-10 Home Buyers Warranty customers benefit from a unique Service Fee guarantee. This guarantee includes the following benefits:

• If you paid a Service Call Fee, but your item was not eligible for coverage, you can request reimbursement.
• If a covered part is serviced and fails again within the term of the Home Warranty Service Agreement, another Service Fee will not be due.

Contractor Options

Some home warranty companies prevent customers from calling the approved contractors directly. 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty allows its customers to contact the contractors directly to expedite the process. If you are looking for a quicker turnaround time, this is a nice feature to have.

Your chosen service contractor must be licensed and insured. He or she must also contact 2-10 HBW with a detailed diagnosis and estimate to see if it's covered and to get an authorization number.

If an in-network pro is not available, it's one thing, but if you simply choose to get your own repair, 2-10 will only cover "an amount equivalent to what [2-10] would have paid for parts and labor for a contracted provider to complete the needed service."
