I am an unhappy customer
I purchased a Guardsman Leather 7 year accidental damage warranty in 2017 and recently put in a claim. I am having an issue with Guardsman Australia Pty Ltd and their definition of animal damage. I have used a flee treatment on my dog and the dog lay on the lounge. The flee treatment has caused staining on the leather lounge. I think a reasonable person would accept a definition of animal damage to be Insect, vermin, or rodent invasion, animals pecking, biting, clawing, scratching, tearing and chewing, (Damage by urine or excrement appears to be covered by the warranty). My dog did not damage my lounge, it lay on the lounge and the chemical caused a stain. They have clearly stated to me they are calling this animal damage and as a result will not assist me in my damage claim. I have been in contact with Consumer Protection and I ask that if anyone else feels they have been treated unfairly by Guardsman Australia Pty Ltd they also contact consumer protection and make a complaint.
