Total waste of time and money
Total waste of time and money. Keep phoning and they say they’ll send a link to upload the claim. They never send it. Warranty worthless.

Hi Maria Hynard,
We’re sorry to hear that you feel this way.
Repair requests are assessed in line with the terms and conditions of the repair plan provided with the vehicle, and the information supplied by the diagnosing garage is an important part of that review process.
If you would like the matter looked at again or discussed further, please contact Cian from our repairs team and he will be happy to review the situation with you.
Best regards,

Terrible warranty company
Give a ridiculously short 30 day period from initiation of claim to have the job completed. Factoring photographs, requested mechanic reports, ordering parts and fitting means this is unlikely to be achieved in this time frame. We had a steering rack leak and drive shaft fail. Garage confirmed unforseeable mechanical failure. Claim was flat out refused. Asked to cancel policy to be told this has to be done through the dealership, who in this case are equally as useless.

I bought a van with a warranty from handler Protect. I had a problem with the van and I rang handler Protect they told me to get it diagnosed and send in a report and quote for the work that needs to be carried out. I spoke Cian he has been so helpful in getting the problem sorted I would have no hesitation in recommending this company to anyone.

Waste of time
Pointless to even have - made me go through the process of providing breakdown of parts/labour diagnosis, cause of failure (this one seems madness specficially as your average mechanic just fixes things not doing full part failure diagnosis for specific parts) just to then decline it for a reason they knew from the start! I told them the error code (coolant temprature sensor failure) they knew the age (2014) and millage (80K) already yet made me submit all the above just to state due to the age and millage its not covered as its not a "sudden and unexpected failure". The worst part is due to the age and millage they where only partially covering the cost anyway so probably would have only been around £250-300 at most (on these engines you have to replace the thermostat and waterpump as a unit usually). It was also found an engine mount had failed but because I didnt have a crystal ball to know this before the diagnosis it also will not be covered. Not sure how you can reaslisticly be expected to ever know a lot of these things have failed without getting a mechanic to diagnose (which is not allowed till you have reported the issue).
I have no idea what this would ever actually cover as they state they cover a lot on the Gold plan but in reality they will just chalk it all down to wear and tear unless the thing is brand new (which will have main dealer cover anyway).

Hi James Horne,
We’re sorry to hear that you feel this way.
When a repair request is raised, we do ask for a diagnostic report and estimate from a garage. This is a standard part of the process and allows our repairs team to properly review the cause of the fault and assess it in line with the terms of the repair plan before any decision can be made.
We would like the opportunity to look into the situation you’ve described in more detail and review the case properly. If you can contact Cian from our repairs team directly, he will be happy to go through the matter with you and see if there is anything further we can assist with.
Best regards,
Händler Protect
