Protect your investment with our extended service contracts from RepairMaster. This plan includes the manufacturer warranty and extends the terms, covering 100% of the parts and labor for two additional years on clothes washers under $750. If the unit cannot be repaired, it will be replaced with and identical unit or comparable. There is no deductible or limit to the number of repairs.

10 Reasons why you should protect your investment with an Extended Service Plan.

In the event that the covered product is sold or transferred at anytime during the term of the Service Plan then the coverage may be transferred to the new owner.
9 - Worldwide Service Option

10 - Renewable
At the end of the prescribed term, you will have the option to renew the service plan. (For as long as you own the product.)
Please note: Extended warranty does do not apply to purchases of portable heaters and vacuum sealers.

- PRODUCT ELIGIBILITY, COVERAGE AND TERM
- This Plan covers products purchased as new and manufactured for use in the United States, which at the time of purchase included the manufacturer's original written warranty valid in the United States. In order to be eligible for a Plan, the manufacturer's original written warranty must provide at least 90 days parts and labor coverage. This Plan covers all mechanical and electrical defects that would normally be covered by the original manufacturer’s written warranty, unless otherwise stated in the Exclusions from Coverage section of this document. Coverage only applies to products used non-commercially.
- Coverage under this Plan shall commence immediately upon the expiration of the manufacturer’s original parts and labor written warranty and is based upon the term of coverage, product description, and retail price limitations shown on the front of the RepairMaster package. If the manufacturer’s warranty has a split-warranty coverage (a split-warranty exists when there is uneven coverage for parts and labor), this Plan shall commence at the time the shortest portion of the manufacturer’s warranty expires. During the manufacturer’s warranty period, any parts and labor covered by that warranty are the sole responsibility of the manufacturer.
- This Plan will furnish labor and replacement parts necessary to maintain your covered product in good operating condition as specified in the terms of this Plan. If service is needed because of a product failure during normal usage, the Administrator has the option to repair or replace the defective product with a product of equal or similar features and functionality. A replacement part or product may be new or reconditioned and may cost less than the original product purchased. No charges or refunds will be made based on the replacement product cost difference. Technological advances may result in a replacement product with a lower selling price than the original product. The most we will pay on any single repair or replacement is the price you paid for the product. If we replace the product in its entirety, our maximum liability has been met under this contract and there will no longer be coverage under the terms of this contract. Replacement products will include a manufacturer’s warranty and the retailer has the option to offer an additional extended service contract on the replaced product. If the product is not repairable and a replacement product is not available, we will refund to you the product purchase price and this contract will be invalid and all obligations satisfied. In no event shall the obligation to administer claims extend beyond the expiration date for the coverage term provided. You may be required to ship or deliver the defective product prior to receiving reimbursement or a replacement product.
- IF YOUR PRODUCT NEEDS REPAIR
- If your product needs repair for mechanical or electrical defects, you are required to call 1-800-292-7726 to obtain authorization prior to having repairs made. For faster service, please have your dated proof of product purchase (sales receipt) available when you place the call. If the covered product is still covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, you may be directed to call the manufacturer prior to being referred to a service center. All repairs must be approved before they are performed. Do not return the product to your retailer unless so instructed by the Administrator.
- When you receive authorization for repairs, the service representative will direct you to the nearest service center unless the manufacturer's warranty offers in-home service. In this case in-home service will be arranged. If in-home service is not feasible the cost of shipping will be covered both ways by Repairmaster. A copy of the proof of product purchase (sales receipt), and a brief written description of the problem must accompany the product.
- In the event the covered product experiences a mechanical or electrical defect in an area where authorized service is not available, your repair facility can obtain approval for repairs through the Administrator by calling 1-800-292-7726. All repairs must be approved before they are performed.
- If your product is covered under another valid service contract and/or insurance policy, this Plan will provide coverage over and above the other service contract and/or insurance policy.
- WORLDWIDE SERVICE OPTION
- The Worldwide Service Option protects your product outside the manufacturer’s warranty when you travel overseas. If your product needs repair overseas, follow the steps below:
- Please check with your local telephone company for the international dialing procedures and operator code as they may differ from country to country. When calling, you may call collect, 817-571-7931, to obtain a proper repair authorization number prior to work being done. All repairs must be approved before they are performed.
- Carry the covered product into an authorized service center.
- Submit payment to the service center.
- Submit to the Administrator a copy of the detailed service repair invoice that identifies your product, the repair authorization number, and include a thorough description of the repair made. This documentation should be sent to WCPS, Attn: Claims Dept., P.O. Box 1189, Bedford, TX 76095, Attention: Claims Department. The Administrator, on behalf of the Obligor, will reimburse you within 30 days of receipt of all necessary paperwork, provided a covered repair was performed.
- Note: Worldwide Service does not include the cost of shipping or on-site service.
- IMPORTANT CONSUMER INFORMATION
- This Plan is deemed a service contract under federal law. If the covered product is deemed non-repairable or repair parts become unavailable during the coverage period of this Plan, the Obligor and the Administrator will replace the product with a product of equal or similar features and functionality, though not necessarily the same brand. Replacement products may be new or rebuilt products. In no event shall the Obligor or Administrator be liable for any damages as a result of the unavailability of repair parts. Administrator and/or Insurance Company own all parts removed from repaired products and any complete units replaced in their entirety. If we fail to pay or provide service on a claim within 60 days after proof of loss has been filed, you are entitled to make a written claim directly against the Insurer, Great American Insurance Company, 49 E.
