Ripoff Report Verified™ REVIEW
EDitor's UPDATE: Positive rating and recognition has been given to National Vehicle Protection Services for its full commitment to quality customer service.
Ripoff Report's discussions with National Vehicle Protection Services have uncovered an ongoing dedication by the company to total client satisfaction. This means that clients can expect that the company will work towards finding a mutually satisfactory resolution to any concerns. National Vehicle Protection Services listens carefully to client concerns and sees them as an opportunity to learn from past mistakes and become more efficient as a company in the services offered and the support for those services.
National Vehicle Protection Services' co-owner, Mark Govero, has informed us the company's philosophy is ‘Customer satisfaction is the key to a successful business. By always putting customers first, NVPS has stayed in business for over 10 years and is a leading service contract provider in North America. Working with 16 different administrators allows us to customize coverage based on the customer's specific needs. We are able to ensure customer satisfaction by offering a plethora of plans that will fit within their budget. We take pride in the fact that not only are our customers happy, but so are our employees.
One of the things Ripoff Report learned in the course of its review is that typical customer feedback reads, “National Vehicle Protection Services has impressed us with their prompt responses to any an issue that have been brought forth. The Quality Assurance Team has shown exceptional responsiveness and professionalism. They take customer satisfaction very seriously and it's clear that their priority is to quickly resolve any customer dissatisfaction.
Ripoff Report Verified™ .. part of Ripoff Report Corporate Advocacy Business Remediation & Customer Satisfaction Program.A program that benefits the consumer, assures them of complete satisfaction and confidence when doing business with a member business..
The information provided in this report below is based on comments made by Mark Govero & Bryan Ponder during an onsite inspection held by a third-party verification company with no biases towards National Vehicle Protection Services.
National Vehicle Protection Services is a vehicle service contract company. They act as a broker for sixteen of the top-rated administrators in the United States of America.
Leads for National Vehicle Protection Services are primarily obtained through outbound phone campaigns and proactive communication to renew contracts. Bryan Ponder stated the following about the sales and services process for National Vehicle Protection Services, "If they decide to purchase a contract we would then within 7 to 10 business days receive the contract from the administrator. So since again we are the broker all we handle is the sale and the cancellation of the contract. Everything in between is handled by the actual administrator. So they will receive the contract lets say within a couple weeks of purchasing the policy and we always encourage everyone to go through the contract and let us know if they have any questions."
CUSTOMER CARE & COMPLAINT RESOLUTION – NATIONAL VEHICLE PROTECTION SERVICES
Mr. Ponder was asked to describe a situation where a client was not satisfied with the level of service they received. He stated the following, "there are often times that while we do everything we can on the front end to explain to the customer what is covered. Unfortunately, not everyone reads their contract and they don’t understand what the difference is between a covered component and a non-covered component. So I would chalk most of that up to contract confusion. They think a part should be covered that isn’t. Other than the claims issue I guess I can’t think of any else. I know that some customers get upset that they have to mail in a letter of cancellation. We have to have one on file that we are no longer responsible for that vehicle. And in the contract, it states this as well. Sometimes people don’t like to have to mail in their letter of cancellation. I mean we do let them fax it or email it if they can but the contract states mail. We are lenient on it as long as we get the letter we are okay."
When asked to comment on complaints posted on Ripoff Report's website Mark Govero stated the following, "we get complaints sometimes from consumers we don’t speak with. And just so you know we are the brokers and we sell to other people and companies. They are our customers though. And whenever a claim does not get paid or something like that so they are more likely to file a complaint without ever telling us but we kind of had it where anytime a consumer wanted to tell us anything we want them to call us. We want them to contact us so that we can try to rectify it because even though we are not the ones paying the claim they are still our customer. We want to make sure that every consumer is taken care of the way they need to be." In order to assure future and current clients, National Vehicle Protection Services is a certified member of the Vehicle Protection Association.
In order to ensure that clients are receiving the best experience possible National Vehicle Protection Services is dedicated to providing clear expectations and communication with their clients. Mr. Govero stated the following, "a lot of things have changed with us over the years. So back in 2012 and before...we opened in 2007. Our core focus I would say 6 or 7 years has been primarily just upon dealerships. We work with dealerships doing their remarketing for them. Before what we were doing is we were doing mail out pieces from a list we bought and mailed them out. And now we speak with consumers of actual dealerships who are our clients. Everything is 1000% customer service."
National Vehicle Protection Services is proud to be a part of Ripoff Reports Corporate Advocacy Business Remediation and Customer Satisfaction Program. Mr. Govero stated the following, "It means everything absolutely everything...we had a lot of years of not exactly putting the complaints on top priority or any issues in top priority. And it is extremely regretful. We did consider changing our name completely just because starting fresh. I mean absolutely every single thing...it is very important that we do not lose any big clients or dealerships look us up and see that our consumers will be treated this way. These kinds of programs mean a whole lot. And they are also good for leads. If we can get consumers calling in from these types of leads as well, of course, it’s a win-win." Mr. Ponder additionally stated, "we also want to be able to earn or gain new clients. And with these complaints that are out there, we don’t want the complaints out there. When we are trying to do business with someone they are going to look us up. Our company mission our company focus is customer experience. We have learned over the years that is what is most important."

NOW TO THE ORIGINAL REPORT THAT WAS FILED
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
National Vehicle Protection Services. Nationwide
So I started getting missed calls on my cell phone from the same number. Not recognizing the area code I decided to listen to the message they left. A pretty and friendly voice let me know that my 2008 car's warranty was about to expire and to please give them a call. I did a quick search on this company and came accross these forums where people have complaint about the company and what the intentions of this company are. I kept getting calls, about 2 per day so I decided to pick up the phone one day to see what all the fuzz was about. Sure enough, the same pretty voice reminded me about my warranty and she went through her scrypt. I kindly let her know that I am a DIY'er type of guy and not only do all of the routine maintenance on the car but the preventive maintenance as well. "I drive conservative and only drive when a motorbike or bicycle isn't possible" was explained on why a 2008 car has 40k miles on it. She explained that she was going to transfer me to a something or other "specialist" and the same dog and pony show took place. That person tranfered me to another something or other "specialist" and ditto for him too....after another mention of tranfering me to another something or other "specialist", regardless if I explained that this phone call will not conlude in me buying anything extra for my car now, nor in the future... I simply hung up while on hold waiting for the 4th "specialist" and blocked the number on my phone.
I have to say, they were nice and professional but determined as well and wouldn't take "no" for an answer. I feel for these people because they are simply a person who I am sure don't like doing that job but it is all that is available at this time so they have to do what the company demands. I have been there and it stinks. I am in no way complaining about the representaives due to them simply doing the job that is not only required but micromanaged, but I am complaining about the company for putting ordinary folks in the front lines while the suit and ties hide in an office. Would I ever buy somerthing from this company? Heck NO! If you do not have the option to block their number and they keep calling, simply tell the representative that the person they are looking for is no longer the owner of the number and the number now belongs to an under age person....then they'll stop calling due to some legality thing with calling minors for solicitation purposes.
