Just a quick update to those that are interested in this thread:
After two letters from my attorney and a slew of documentation, Warranty Direct made me a settlement offer a week or so ago for $4800.00 and change. They have now made up a different reason to deny the rest of my claim above that though. This is getting absurd, as we debunk their reasons, they simply make up another.
As indicated earlier, I'm not letting them off the hook so easily for something I paid for and that I feel I am entitled to. I instructed my lawyer to deny the offer and give them a deadline to make me whole and to send them a copy of the filled out paperwork to show them we are serious about filing. If they don't make me whole, then we are going for everything I'm entitled to plus attorney's fees, plus expert witness fees, plus all arbitration fees plus interest. I was going to file earlier, but on the last deadline day we gave them, they made the above offer, so they are at least beginning to show that they realize they have responsibility.

FINALLY HAVE A RESOLUTION. On December 10, 2008 (yesterday), we had a scheduled arbitration hearing in New York. During the hearing, they asked for an opportunity to settle, and after mutual negotiation, they agreed to what my lawyer and I felt was a fair settlement and I accepted via my lawyer. It was entered into the hearing and they will be paying me $12,972.++ within the next 30 days.
It took 13 1/2 months, and 1 more until I actually get the $$$, but I had no intention of letting them out of their commitment that they contracted with me for.
They had to pay their arbitration fees as well, so in the end they will be paying out more $$$ then if they had initially honored my claim in the beginning.
This Christmas will be so much better for me and my family now then it was last year.
Take care and thanks to everyone that made suggestions or had words of commisseration or support,
Mike

It sucks you had to go through all of that, but at least they paid up. I am glad to hear they ended up paying more than they needed too because they were jerks.

did they pay for your legal fees?
I have them as well and I have not documented my oil changes at every 5K miles.
If my motor goes I guess I am screwed.

Mike, I am so glad that you persisted and made the rascals pay. I have told everyone I know about the shoddy treatment that Warranty Direct gave you. I had coverage with them on my '03 Boxster S but never had a claim. Transferred the coverage to the buyer. Don't know if he has tried to collect on any claims. I will never do business with them again.
