I’ve heard a lot about US Fidelis as a company. I’d check out Rip Off report for these guys before doing business with them. It might work for some people, but US Fidelis has some mystery surrounding them in terms of customer confidence.

That’s a good idea Harold. As the admin of this site, I am a little hesitant to provide Rip Off Report articles.
But, at your request, and after thinking more on the subject, I think that maybe that is the most fair. I’ve updated the article above to include this controversial information.

I included some information from consumer reports on them as well. I better finish the US Fidelis company review soon!

Hey – you updated that pretty quick! I appreciate having all the resources and reviews available when I make a decision about something large like an extended auto warranty or auto insurance. Cheers,
H.Gustro

Rusty Wallace commercials are a crack up- it’s nearly 2 minutes long! They have really should have left the mini wallace, Steve, out. US Fidelis seems like a decent company – what did their name use to be?

Here is a discussion I found on US Fidelis over at Joe’s blog –

Is Us Fidelis a scam?

That’s the title of his post – it doesn’t reflect our views of US Fidelis at all! I’m going to get the President of US Fidelis to make a statement regarding all of this bad press. I just can’t believe all the info that I am finding on them! More to come…

Hi Erica – Thanks for taking the time to add the US Fidelis side of the story for the review.

Here is a quick way to get an auto warranty quote – be sure to review US Fidelis here to let people know if it’s a good company to work with!

US Fidelis helped me with each of the question, and explain good what they offer to me. 2004 Ford Taurus and it does have some problem, but no problem now and US Fidelis will pay now! I like them!

i canNOT believe we fell for their crapola. we canceled DURING the phone call, thinking we needed to add a little more insurance to our almost new (but ‘just’ out of warranty) lincoln ls coupe. they’ve promised 3 different times to refund our money (which THEY got in about 10 seconds): we’ll look into it, it’ll be sent within 10 business days, and ‘it’s in the mail.’ priceless. that was 6 months ago. total ripoff. the owner of this shyster outfit (and his brother – who owns yet another warranty scammer company – fund a church near st. louis that’s a programming center for their company lifestyle. there’s so much bad press on these guys that they’ll (fer shur) start two more companies soon. of course they’ll keep their enormous mansions…
sign us up for a class action lawsuit folks, we don’t even want the money back, just fund the lawyers to put these con-artists out of business muy pronto… makes me sick even thinking about them.

US fidelis is a scam company. Now that they are threatened by 40 out of 50 states attorney generals with lawsuits for lying to their customers,
they are paying out a higher percentage of claims than before. Why would you trust any company with that kind of terrible track record?

I currently have US Fidelis coverage and I must say that it’s been one bad experience. When I bought the warrenty, I was told that I would receive a package in the mail. I received a letter with US Fidelis letter head. It had an 800 number to call if I needed to file a claim. When it came time to file a claim and I called the 800 number, it WAS NOT US Fidelis that I was dealing with. It was some other company that US Fidelis had brokered to me without even letting me know. The name of that company is Choice Warrenty (suppositly). They are part of the Prolong Warrenty company. I called US Fidelis and asked why wasn’t I told this when I bought the warrenty. All I got was an apology and was told that the customer service rep. should have told me when I bought the coverage. My car has been in the shop for 2 weeks. I live in California and warrenty company (Choice Warrenty) is in New Jersey. Their customer service is awful. You can’t anybody unless you start bunching in random extention numbers. The mechanic is starting to get impatient thinks it might be a scam. I’m starting to think that I have been had. In my opinion, STAY AWAY FROM US FIDELIS.

This company is a full scam and rip-off. They’ve more than 35,000 bbb enquiries and more than 1500+ complaints and several complaints in many states with the District Attorney. Their plan is just to collect your premiumand stall you for ever or never pay or pay a very insignificant amount. And when their company name goes bad, they’ll switch their name to another company and continue defrauding customers. Couple of my friends had really bad nightmare exp. with US Fidelis.
In one of the articles I saw the the owner is a ex criminal for theft, fraud and forgery etc.,

I was thinking about doing this but the it seems like a scam like everyone said and I will find another way to get a extended warranty

This place is a rip off – I am dealing with them now – they lie about the coverage tell me 1 thing and then another person tells me another – 3 different people told me 3 different coverages – and none of them are listed on the web site – I thought it was a good place but turns out to be a scam – stay away from them!!!

It is a risky decision Tyrone, but if you find the right company – and look around, you’ll find a few good ones on this site! – then it can really work out in your favor.

This whole site is totally awesome!!!!! This is just one of those websites that make me glad to be an internet nerd.

US Fidelis is nothing but a scam. They already have numerous class-action lawsuits underway across the country, including one in Missouri.

The BBB gives them a “failure”.

Don’t worry folks, these guys will be gone very soon.

I purchased the warranty 3 years ago. I now have to file a claim for my truck. I live in Pennsylvania, but now in Florida and forgot to bring info down with me. Could someone please get me the number to call to file a claim? I did try to call the office
800-649-1856 and got a US Fidelis voice mail. With all the scamming info I am reading, it doesn’t look like I will have success with the claim. I will let you know.

I called this company for a quote and got ran through the ringer. I could not get off the phone! Needless to say I will not be purchasing from them.

It seems carchex has a good rep and I also found wholesale warranty club which had a great price but I haven’t found any reviews on them?

I have quotes from a ton of sites and it is very difficult to know what to buy.
