What is Roadside Dispatch? 
Roadside Dispatch is a pay-per-use roadside assistance program. The program provides you with security and convenience wherever your travels take you.

  • Fuel Delivery – up to 5 gallons (plus the cost of fuel) 
  • Standard Winching 

Roadside Dispatch will ask you where you are, what the problem is, and while they remain on the phone with you, they will arrange a dispatch to a reliable tow operator or locksmith to provide help. (If you feel you are in an unsafe location – Roadside Dispatch will advise you to hang up and dial 911. If you are not able to dial 911, they will call the non-emergency police number in your area, and will remain on the phone with you at your request until the police arrive.) You have the convenience of one toll-free phone number and you may save money because their rates are pre-negotiated.

Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver

No cardholder wants to incur the expense of repairing or replacing a rented car. But accidents do happen, and vehicles do get stolen. No matter what happens to Your rental car, You can be covered with Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver.

Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver reimburses You for damages caused by theft or collision -- up to the Actual Cash Value of most rented cars. Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver covers no other type of loss. For example, in the event of a collision involving Your rented vehicle, damage to any other driver’s car or the injury of anyone or anything is not covered. Rental periods of thirty-one (31) consecutive days are covered. (Longer rental periods, however, are not covered.)

You are eligible for this benefit if Your name is embossed on an eligible card issued in the United States or if You are authorized by Your company to rent an eligible vehicle using the company’s eligible Account, as long as the rental is purchased entirely with the Account. Only You, as the primary renter of the vehicle, and any additional drivers permitted by the Rental Car Agreement are covered.

How Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver works with other insurance

Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver covers theft, damage, valid loss-of-use charges imposed and substantiated by the auto rental company, administrative fees and reasonable and customary towing charges, due to a covered theft or damage to the nearest qualified repair facility.

If the Rental Vehicle is for commercial and/or business purposes, Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver benefit acts as primary coverage, and You may be reimbursed for up to the actual cash value of the vehicle.

If the Rental Vehicle is for personal reasons, this benefit is secondary coverage, supplemental to Your personal automobile insurance, meaning You may only be reimbursed for the amount of Your personal insurance deductible or other charges, including valid administrative and loss-of-use charges not covered under Your personal insurance policy. If You are renting outside Your country of residence, or if You do not have automobile insurance, Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver acts as primary coverage. 

How to use Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver

  1. Use Your card to initiate and complete Your entire car rental transaction.
  2. Review the auto rental agreement and decline the rental company’s collision damage waiver (CDW/LDW) option, or a similar provision, as accepting this coverage will cancel out Your benefit. If the rental company insists that You purchase their insurance or collision damage waiver, call the Benefit Administrator for assistance at 1-800-348-8472. Outside the United States, call collect at 1-804-673-1164.

Before You leave the lot, be sure to check the car for any prior damage.

This benefit is in effect during the time the rental car is in Your (or an authorized driver’s) control, and it terminates when the rental company reassumes control of their vehicle.

This benefit is available in the United States and most foreign countries (with the exception of Israel, Jamaica, the Republic of Ireland or Northern Ireland). However, this benefit is not available where precluded by law, or where it’s in violation of the territory terms of the auto rental agreement, or when prohibited by individual merchants. Because regulations vary outside the United States, check with Your auto rental company and the Benefit Administrator before You travel, to be sure that Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver will apply.

Vehicles not covered

Certain vehicles are not covered by this benefit, they consist of: expensive, exotic, and antique cars; cargo vans; certain vans; vehicles with an open cargo bed; trucks; motorcycles; mopeds; motorbikes; limousines; and recreational vehicles. Examples of expensive or exotic cars are the Alfa Romeo, Aston Martin, Bentley, Corvette, Ferrari, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Lotus, Maserati, Maybach, McLaren, Porsche, Rolls Royce, and Tesla. However, selected models of Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Cadillac, Infiniti, Land Rover, Lexus, Lincoln, and Range Rover are covered.

An antique car is defined as one that is over twenty (20) years old, or one that has not been manufactured for ten (10) years or more.

Vans are not covered. But those designed as small-group transportation vehicles (seating up to nine (9) people, including the driver) are covered.

If You have questions about a specific vehicle’s coverage or organization where the vehicle is being reserved, call the Benefit Administrator at 1-800- 348-8472, or call collect outside the United States at 1-804-673-1164.

Purchase Security/Extended Protection Purchase Security

Life is full of surprises… some good surprises; and some, not so good.

For instance, Your son’s brand new iPad got soaked, in a sudden rainstorm at summer camp. But, You bought the item with Your card so, You may be covered. Purchase Security protects new retail purchases made with Your eligible Account and/or rewards program associated with Your covered Account within the first ninety (90) days from the date of purchase. To be eligible for this coverage, You need to purchase either a portion or the entire cost of the item using Your Account and/or rewards program associated with Your covered Account.

At the Benefit Administrator’s discretion, this benefit replaces, repairs, or reimburses You, up to the total purchase price of Your item for a maximum of ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) per claim and fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00), per cardholder, in the event of theft or damage.

You are eligible for this benefit if You are a cardholder of an eligible card issued in the United States.

Gifts purchased for friends and family members may also be covered if they are purchased with Your covered Account and/or rewards program associated with Your covered Account.

Purchase Security covers

Eligible items of property purchased with Your Account and/or rewards program associated with Your covered Account are covered for theft or damage. Purchases made outside the United States are also covered as long as You purchased the item with Your covered Account and/or rewards program associated with Your covered Account.

The Benefit Administrator will ask for some preliminary claim information, answer Your questions and send You a claim form. When You submit Your claim, be sure to include all information regarding Your claim including the time, place, cause and the amount to either replace or repair the item.

If You have insurance (homeowner’s, renter’s, car, employer or any other), You are required to file a claim with Your insurance company and to submit a copy of any claim settlement from Your insurance company along with Your claim form. Purchase Security provides coverage on an “excess” coverage basis, meaning it does not duplicate coverage, but pays for a loss only after valid and collectible insurance or indemnity (including, but not limited to, homeowner’s, renter’s, automobile, or employer’s insurance policies) has been exhausted. At that point, Purchase Security will cover the loss up to the amount charged to Your eligible Account, subject to the terms, exclusions, and limits of liability of the benefit.

This benefit also pays for the outstanding deductible portion of Your insurance or indemnity for eligible claims. The maximum total limit of liability is up to ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) per claim occurrence and fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00) per cardholder. You will receive no more than the purchase price as recorded on the eligible card receipt.

When a protected item is part of a pair or set, You will receive no more than the value (as described above) of the particular part or parts, stolen or damaged, regardless of any special value that item may have as part of such a pair or set, and no more than the proportionate part of an aggregate purchase price of such pair or set.

Extended Warranty Protection

Product warranties can be inconvenient and cumbersome to use. Let’s say You purchased a great gadget about a year ago, but it just stopped working, and You can’t find Your sales receipt and warranty information. For all too common situations like these, Extended Warranty Protection can help.

Extended Warranty Protection provides You with valuable features that help You manage, use and extend the warranties for eligible items purchased on Your covered Account and/or rewards program associated with Your covered Account. Services include Warranty Registration and Extended Protection. You are eligible for this benefit if You are a cardholder of an eligible card issued in the United States and You purchase either a portion or the entire cost of the item using Your Account and/or rewards program associated with Your covered Account.

Here’s how Warranty Registration works

When You purchase an eligible item that carries a manufacturer’s warranty, You can register Your purchase by calling 1-800-848-1943 or call collect outside the U.S. at 1-303-967-1096. You can also register Your purchase online at www.cardbenefitservices.com.

The Benefit Administrator will tell You where to send Your item’s sales receipt and warranty information, so they can be kept on file should You need them. If You choose not to register Your item, be sure to keep Your monthly billing statement reflecting the purchase, the itemized sales receipt, the original manufacturer’s written U.S. warranty and any additional warranty in a safe place. These documents will be required to verify Your claim.

Here’s how Extended Protection works

Your warranty coverage can be doubled up to one (1) additional year on eligible warranties of three (3) years or less. For example, a manufacturer’s warranty of three (3) months would be provided with an additional three (3) months of coverage for a combined total of six (6) months of coverage, and a warranty for six (6) months would be provided with an additional six (6) months of coverage for a combined total of twelve (12) months of coverage. However, if the manufacturer’s warranty is for three (3) years, it would only be extended one (1) additional year.

This benefit is limited to no more than the original price of the purchased item (as shown on Your credit card receipt), less shipping and handling fees, up to a maximum of ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) per claim, and fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00) per cardholder.

The benefit covers purchases made both inside and outside the U.S. The eligible item must have a valid original manufacturer’s U.S. repair warranty of three (3) years or less, a U.S. store-purchased dealer warranty, or a U.S. assembler warranty.

What Extended Protection does not cover

  • Boats, automobiles, aircraft, and any other motorized vehicles and their motors, equipment, or accessories, including trailers and other items that can be towed by or attached to any motorized vehicle
  • Any costs other than those specifically covered under the terms of the original manufacturer’s written U.S. repair warranty, as supplied by the original manufacturer, or other eligible warranty
  • Items purchased for resale
  • Real estate and items which are intended to become part of real estate including, but not limited to, items that are hard-wired or hard-plumbed, garage doors, garage door openers, and ceiling fans
  • Rented or leased items
  • Computer software
  • Medical equipment
  • Used or pre-owned items (Refurbished items will be covered as long as it has a warranty with it and would not be considered used or pre-owned.)

Filing an Extended Protection claim

To file a claim, call the Benefit Administrator at 1-800-848-1943 or call collect outside the U.S. at 1-303-967-1096, immediately after the failure of Your covered item. Please note if You do not notify the Benefit Administrator within sixty (60) days of product failure, Your claim may be denied.

The Benefit Administrator will request preliminary claim information, direct You to the appropriate repair facility, and send You the claim form. Gift recipients of eligible items are also covered, but they must provide all the documents needed to substantiate their claim.

If You received or purchased a service contract or an extended warranty when You purchased Your item, this benefit will be supplemental to, and in excess of, that coverage.

Fill out and sign the claim form the Benefit Administrator sent You, then submit the form within ninety (90) days of the product failure, along with the following documents:

  • A copy of Your monthly billing statement (showing the last four [4] digits of the Account number) demonstrating that the purchase was made on Your eligible Account and/or rewards program associated with Your covered Account

Cellular Telephone Protection

Cell phones have become an everyday necessity for the average person, which means if Your cell phone is damaged or stolen, getting it repaired or replaced is not optional.

Cellular Telephone Protection provides coverage for damage to, theft of, or involuntary and accidental parting of Your cell phone.  An involuntary and accidental parting is the unintended separation from Your cell phone when its location is known, but recovery is impractical to complete.  This benefit is available if You are a valid cardholder of an eligible U.S. issued card enrolled in the Cellular Telephone Protection benefit and You charge Your monthly cellular wireless phone bills to Your eligible card for the billing cycle before the month in which the incident occurs. Eligible cell phones are the lines listed on Your most recent cellular wireless service provider’s (“cell phone provider”) monthly billing statement for the billing cycle prior to when the incident occurred.

What is covered?
This benefit is supplemental coverage, which means that it will reimburse You for theft of, damage to or involuntary and accidental parting of Your cell phone not otherwise covered by another insurance policy (for example; cell phone insurance programs, or Your homeowner’s, renter’s, automobile, or employer’s insurance policies).

If You do have personal insurance that covers theft, damage or involuntary and accidental parting for Your cell phone, this benefit reimburses You for the deductible portion of Your cell phone insurance. 

If You do not have personal insurance, the benefit reimburses You for the covered theft, damage, or involuntary and accidental parting for Your cell phone.

Once all other insurance has been exhausted, Cellular Telephone Protection will provide coverage up to $500.00 per claim less the fifty dollar ($50.00) deductible, with a maximum of two (2) claims and $1,000.00 per twelve (12) month period. If it is determined that Your cell phone requires replacement due to the theft of, damage to or an involuntary or accidental parting of the device, You will receive the replacement value subject to the fifty dollar ($50.00) deductible and the benefit maximum. The replacement value is the lesser of Your cellular wireless service provider’s suggested retail value of a similar model replacement cell phone or the actual cost to replace the cell phone. 

If Your cell phone is repairable, You will receive an amount as determined by the diagnostic to repair the cell phone subject to the benefit maximum and fifty dollar ($50.00) deductible.

Note: Electronic issues, such as inability to charge, mechanical or battery failure, where there is no evidence of physical damage, are not covered under this program.

When does it apply?
Cellular Telephone Protection applies when You make Your monthly cellular wireless phone bill payment with Your eligible card. Coverage begins the first day of the calendar month following a payment of the cellular wireless phone bill.  

If You fail to make a cellular wireless phone bill payment in a particular month, Your coverage will be suspended. Coverage will resume on the first day of the calendar month after the date of any future cellular wireless phone bill payment made with the eligible card.  

If Your cell phone is stolen as a result of criminal activity, You must file a police report.

What is not covered?
This benefit will not provide reimbursement for the following: 

  1. Cell phone accessories other than standard battery and/or standard antenna provided by the manufacturer
  2. Cell phones purchased for resale
  3. Cell phones that are lost or “mysteriously disappear,” meaning that the phone vanished in an unexplained manner without evidence of a wrongful act by a person or persons

  6. Cell phones which have been rented, borrowed or are part of prepaid or “pay as you go” type plans

  8. Damage or theft resulting from abuse, intentional acts, fraud, hostilities of anykind (including, but not limited to, war, invasion, rebellion, or insurrection), confiscation by the authorities, risks of contraband, illegal activities, normal wear and tear, flood, earthquake, radioactive contamination, or damage from inherent product defects 
  9. Damage or theft resulting from misdelivery or voluntary parting with the cell phone
  10. Taxes, delivery and transportation charges, and any fees associated with the cellular wireless service provider
  11. Losses caused by or resulting from a Cyber Incident
