Can you still get the assurz guarantee?

Question

beacuse the website wont respond and tiger direct doesnt offer it anymore.

i bought someonething and i want to use the guarantee that i bought

Answer 1

I don't believe you can count on Assurz any longer.  They have apparently gone out of business according to the few merchants that have used them.  Next time, you should protect yourself with buySAFE instead (http://www.buysafe.com).  

buySAFE is well financed.  buySAFE has been in business for more than 5 years.  buySAFE has bonded more than 17 million ecommerce transactions and 110 million eBay item listings for thousands of online merchants as of early 2008.

Perhaps most importantly given the apparent demise of Assurz, buySAFE's bond guarantees are backed by Liberty Mutual, Travelers and ACE.  These major financial institutions have been around for many, many years, and can be counted upon to fully stand behind the buySAFE Bond Guarantees regardless of what happens to buySAFE or the online merchant in the future.

Good luck!

Answer 2

One word................NO.

Do not use this service it is a sham. This company is a farce and slipshod.

I bought an item from Tiger Direct and used Assurz. The item had to be returned.

This was over a month ago. I got an e-mail from Assurz on 5-30-08 saying the refund check was on the way. To date NOTHING.

Don't buy from Tiger Direct or use Assurz unless you want to get ripped off and screwed over.

There are other companies who will treat you with respect and whose word is good.

Stay as far away as possible from Assurz and Tiger Direct. Order elsewhere and spare yourself the nightmare of getting jerked around.

Looks like Tiger Direct set their customers up knowing Assurz was going bust.
