Do they only cover appliances or Air Con ?
or do they cover plumbing and other things too ?

Do they make you wait a period of time before using it ?

Thanks

I have heard complaints about every one. As for specific questions, I
suggest that you make up a list and send the list to each company. I would
write off any company that does not respond promptly.

I would also consider that all these companies are profit making
companies. Generally they only pay out 25-50% of the money you pay. The
rest goes for their expenses and profit.

Like other forms in insurance (they are not really warranties, but are
insurance policies) their value is their ability to cover you for unlikely
but possible expenses that you could not cover yourself and to offer you
some piece of mind. However based on what I have heard from many people
(but not all) they are more trouble and cost than they are worth.
