Frequently Asked Questions

My protection plan claim was denied — who do I dispute with?

Protection plans are frequently administered by a third party under their own terms. Identify the administrator, request the exclusion relied on in writing, then escalate.

Is a restocking fee legal?

It depends on disclosure and provincial rules, and it generally cannot apply where goods are defective. Raise the defect specifically.
