Gold Plan Questions and Answers
What type of coverage does the Gold Plan provide?
Gold Plan coverage is a cash allowance program. If it is determined that (1) the cost of the repair for a covered appliance (covered on your base plan) exceeds the value of the appliance; (2) the appliance is not repairable; or (3) parts are no longer available, then you will receive a “cash allowance” toward the purchase of a new appliance.
How do I know if I am eligible to enroll in the Gold Plan?
To be eligible for enrollment, you must currently be enrolled in a Standard Plan for three months or more, and if you pay in installments, be in good standing with such payments.
When can I start using the Gold Plan?
There’s a 15-day waiting period before you can receive service under the Gold Plan.
What is the length of the Gold Plan contract?

Do I receive the same cash allowance regardless of new-appliance cost?
Yes, the cash allowance is limited to the amount set forth in the Gold Plan Terms and Conditions, regardless of the cost to replace the appliance. Cash payments are limited to $2,500 per contract, per contract year.
