Warranty Assist should provide documentation to its end customers, beyond the car dealerships. I found myself having to pay 50% of a bill that really should have been fully covered. I was fortunate... See more

Great service
Every time I called it took between 2-5 minutes to pick up which is outstanding considering lots of places make you wait 30 mins+ and the staff that was helping me were very kind and friendly and obviously very helpful.

Personable, professional and friendly
For me what makes this company shine above any others I’ve used is the personal touch and having a reliable Account manager Mike is exactly that! Helpful, always available, easy to talk too professional and I would highly recommend Mike and Warranty Assist to all!
Thanks Mike 11/10 🤩

Do not use Warranty Assist
I purchased a Skoda Yeti from Car Planet and was sold a warranty that was to cover any mechanical failure on the vehicle for a period of 3 years. I was given the cover without any inspection of the said vehicle. 5 months later an injector failed - after a long delay , the injector was replaced but Warranty Assist refused payment due to an incomplete service book. They provided an "expert" who testified that the injector failed due to wear and tear that was not present at the time of purchase 5 months previous. This is a 2012 model and the cover was given without any perusal of service or condition. The Booklet describing what the warranty covers definitely stipulates that injectors are covered but not even an inspection as to whether it was an electrical or mechanical failure took place. I asked to cancel the policy but was refused-small print gives a 14 day cancellation- one would hope that the vehicle would not require any repairs within that time.
I would also hold Car Planet liable as they should be aware of service data and the requirements of Warranty Assist
I have reported the above to the motor ombutsman as well and I hope this company is prevented from duping any further people.
They claim to be number 1
They claim to be number 1.
I have honestly had the most stressful 2 weeks because of warranty assist regarding my gearbox which they took 2 weeks to tell me they are not covering it and they only told me because I had to call them again myself when they had the answer from Friday. This honestly so bad.
Some peoples reviews that I have read on here with less mileage on my car will say the same. My car is at about 95,000. What I do no understand is why offer warranty. They sent the car to there approved workshop and when I said to them that the mechanic even said it’s a gearbox so what is the point of you sending your own private inspector they told me they have to as it’s in there terms and conditions and they have every right to do this. They told me can take up to a week. When I said to them what’s the point of this then even the mechanic that owns the garage has told me and yourself it’s a gearbox issue. In which they told me that they have there own interest but what about your interest warranty assist.
The colleague told me they had an answer for me couple days ago but no one called me even today when I called them that’s when they told me the answer of them decline. otherwise honestly have no clue when they would of told me. They told me because of the inspectors past ‘experiences’ he said it’s ’wear And tear’ and I said to them that he didn’t even take a look that gearbox fully so how would he know and they said to me if you want the car stripped down you have to pay for it so then a inspector can go and then check it. bear in mind I’ve had the car 7 months. Again as many other people have said why offer warranty if your terms and conditions are sooo strict then you have them meeting your criteria at the start of the purchase. Honestly warranty is spouse to make your life easier not harder. This was honestly Sucha a bad experience I definitely would not recommend this company to anyone.
I found it very sad when this happened it’s made it so much harder for me it’s not like it’s an easy and cheap fix.
My names anisa parveen I also left my warranty number there you should easily be able to find me even if you check my email.

CROOKS ALONG SIDE CAR PLANET!!!
Nice Glossy brochure from Car Planet, stating covers everything up to the price of your car.
It's doesn't!!
Crooks along side the crooks at car planet that sold it to me.
If there is a reply at the bottom it's BS.
What this Warranty Plan Includes
Nice glossy brochure states:
The following engine parts are also covered:
Fuel system
Air flow sensors and meters, fuel gauge sender unit, fuel pressure regulators & accumulators, fuel pumps (including pre-pumps, low, high pressure pumps & injection pumps), injectors (including petrol, diesel & single-point injectors.
---------------------
But when injectors need replacing, strangely enough they are not covered??
**In the small print I take it??? **
What's the point of your manager speaking to me, he isn't going to suddenly change his mind is he?
So I will join the other 162 customers that have given your company 1 star.
##I am verified by Trust pilot, as I said yr crooks along side Car Planet.##

Brilliant service, warranty is exactly as specified and what I needed! Highly recommend!
Do not waste your money to take the…
Do not waste your money to take the warranty. Nothing will be covered by the warranty. With gold warranty they are not able to cover the completely damage cluch and after I sent over the diagnosis, they asked me for the quote of the repairs. After the garage did the quote which took a week, the warranty called me to inform me doesn’t cover any parts of the clutch what is broken .
Waste of time and money! I can’t give you 0 stars
Plan 235167. Job sheet 417162
Car planet said will be cover everything showing on the book what I received.
The car was bought in September 2023.
I took warranty in case anything is happening. The most expensive one what you got it.
If you can’t cover the problems what the car got it, then refund me the money back
My curent mileage are 80000. I didn’t bought a car with 87000 mileage 6 months ago. Please check the details when you reply to people messages. Thanks
