My mother is elderly and lives alone
My mother is elderly and lives alone. She currently has a home warranty through her HOA. One day, she received a notice in the mail saying her home warranty was about to expire and that, if she didn't pay immediately, she would lose coverage. Unfortunately, this is a common sales tactic aimed at older people, trying to scare them into thinking they'll lose services. She did not have a Home Protect USA home warranty, and the sales representative should have verified that over the phone. She was very confused and thought she was dealing with her existing home warranty. Home Protect USA sold her a two-year contract even after she repeatedly said no and wanted only a one-year contract, thinking it was similar to what she normally does with her HOA. Companies like this should be ashamed of themselves for trying to take advantage of older people. The government should shut down each and every one of these companies.
