    We’ve been using them the entire time we’ve had the house in California. So, it was excellent. The claims process is fairly straightforward. I would go online, put the claim in, and I would get notified relatively quickly. Back when we had tenants in the house, the heat pump went out in January while the tenant was pregnant. That didn’t go as smoothly as I had liked. It took quite a while to get the parts that they needed in and then the same thing happened a couple of months later when the AC went out.

    It went great with the swimming pool claim. The contractor went out to the house and diagnosed it. 2-10 offered me a buyout of 925 which we accepted, and all was done. The house is a rental and we didn't have anyone in it for three months. So, we didn’t have a rush on the claim. Once the contractor diagnosed it and turned everything in to 2-10, it was probably less than a week. I’m in Arizona now and I couldn’t get 2-10 here. Otherwise, I would have. 2-10 was much better.

    We're here in South Florida. We made our claim on October 1st, and we didn't get it settled until October 20. And it was 90 degrees every single day. We got the runaround from everyone, from 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty. In the end, we didn't get charge anything from them. They took care of everything but we were not satisfied with the process and the length of time it took. That was not how it should have been. I'm a Realtor and I refer people to 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty, and now, I am doubtful.

    We filed the claim on a Thursday morning and two hours later, I had a local air conditioning tech call me and he said he was coming to my house to take a look at it. He came over, got in and diagnosed the problem, what we think was accurately. He called 2-10 purchasing department and told them he had the part here in town that was exactly what they needed and gave them the part number. However, 2-10 went researching on their own which took five days. On the third day later, they finally located it and then they mailed it, shipped it down to Florida for us to use. That was six days when we finally got the part but they ordered the wrong part. They didn't take my air conditioning's tech advice to order the specific part.

    I had no less than 30 phone calls into 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty to get updates and to talk to supervisors and whoever. I got so many calls and messages. I got so many people that said the part was gonna be delivered that night and the tech was gonna be called and they were gonna fix it the following morning. When the next day came and nothing happened, I called back and I was informed it was still being purchased. This happened three times. Three weeks later, we finally got the part in. Because of the delay, the blower failed. 2-10 stepped up and paid for that right away and took care of it. I didn't have to file another claim where I did, but that was before I had to pay the additional $100. And they actually refunded my initial $100. So, I was not out of pocket. In the end, it worked out. It's blowing cold.

    We have two air conditioners for this house and the other one was working just fine. So, we got to sleep in that area of the house. Having one air conditioner kept a majority of the house at least, not above 82 degrees which is livable during the day. However, had I had only one air conditioner, we would have been living in a hotel. And then we would have been probably going to 2-10 with litigation. They offered to buy me out. They were offering to give me $400 towards that part. I said we had the part and it was three miles from where I live. But they would not pull the trigger and buy that part. They want to ship in their own part. That was really annoying. Overall, it's been pretty good with 2-10 except for this last deal.

    The contractor 2-10 sent us for the lights was great. The guy was very professional and was open to communication. I also liked his cleanliness. 2-10 was very proactive in getting someone out and they would answer any question that we had. Sometimes, when you have a service like this, you’re not sure about stuff even though it’s on the paperwork. And there's really a lot of paperwork, as with any company, for a consumer to read. It’s so much easier when I’m able to call 2-10's office and ask if they are able to cover a problem. And they get people out immediately. On this claim, they sent a good one and then they followed up to make sure he came in and the job was completed.

    The heating coils were bad and the thermostat wasn’t tripping the way it should. It was only going on when the blower was on instead of auto. When my girlfriend called 2-10 to get the service set up, it ended up not going through. I don’t know if it was just a mix-up but when I called and got it all set up, the reps I talked to did really well and the techs were out here within about two days. They were from Holder’s Heating and Air and they were extremely professional. I work third shift, and they had to come in during the day, so I left a note on the window saying that I was sleeping and they got the job done. They also left me a note letting me know everything was done and they locked the doors up behind them.

    Everything is going great with the system now. But I had to call them out once after they originally came out because the thermostat had acted up again. And it ended up just being a loose wire, so a tech came out and fixed that. And we haven't had anything since then. So, I'm very pleased with the way everything was handled.

    I only had one claim with 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty and the experience was very unsatisfactory. We bought the new house and we had some repairs that we were trying to get done, but only one was covered. With other home warranties I've had in the past, it didn't matter if the issue was pre-existing or not. We paid out whatever fee and their contractor came out and they did what they had to do. There was never a question of whether it was pre-existing condition or not. We had one issue that popped up after we purchased the house and the shower would not turn off either. It was determined to be a concealed repair because he had to go behind the wall, in the wall, to get to the pipes, what needed to be replaced. I've had numerous other plumbers come out since this repair, and I got charged around $800 for the repair. Everybody else said that should've been a $200 to $300 repair. So, I'm not happy.

    Additionally, their plumbers don't do drywall repair for whatever reason. And so, I don't understand how I can use my home warranty and only get half service. I have a hole in the wall in the closet where the plumber came and did his repair work. I don't understand why it was not a complete repair, including the drywall, especially at $800, which was obscene.

    I had a claim done with 2-10 when the water heater stopped working. On the first day that the tech came out, he checked it out, diagnosed it, and then he left. The home warranty then ordered the part and as soon as it came, about five days later, the guy came back and installed it. Everything is good so far, and I hope it goes like that forever.

    Our gas water heater claim went fine. The rep was very good when I called the claim in. The contractors were always very strong on letting me know when they were going to be coming and then when they were on their way. They were the ones that were doing some other work for me and noticed that the water heater was making a screaming noise. I wasn’t familiar with that and they worked with 2-10 to come up with a solution. 2-10 was providing the unit. The contractor picked up the equipment then they came and installed it. We had a little problem with certain parts. The connectors wouldn't fit with the heater, and so we had to wait for a second visit. The connectors that were supposed to be used were not in the package. When they got those parts, they finally came out and installed them. So, it’s been done and it's working fine. And I was lucky that I wasn’t without hot water for a week and a half.

    We made a claim for our refrigerator. 2-10 arranged someone to take a look and they decided the replacement. They gave us the lowest model that we didn’t like. We had to take the buyout offer. I got a check of 800 bucks and if I minus 100 bucks I paid off and the insurance premium I paid off which was 500 bucks, I only got 100 bucks. That’s not much. I recommend 2-10 for a new homebuyer, but not for people who already live in a home. I only have two months with 2-10. It’s okay, but I’m not going to renew.

    2-10 was who our realtor recommended when we bought our house. When our AC went out, and the reps that we spoke to were so unknowledgeable. I had to ask specific questions to drag answers out of them. They weren’t forthcoming with anything. 2-10 needs to train their people better on the knowledge of what they are discussing with the client. Eventually, I stopped dealing with 2-10 and only dealt with the contractors. It was not a good experience at all. Their contractors, nevertheless, were great. They ended up replacing the AC.

    My experience with 2-10 has not been wonderful. We got the warranty because we bought our house as is, and we had a house before that was an older house that needed things done on it, and it seemed like the smart thing to do. They were highly recommended to us by somebody else that has their program, and they had good success with them, but that has not been the case for us.

    We have to submit an email to submit a claim. My husband always submitted the tickets for us because it’s easier for him to do that. Typically, when he has put in a claim, somebody has called within 36 hours from the contractor’s office with an appointment. The HVAC companies were stellar. There’s been one company that has been sent out for the dishwasher and for the refrigerator, and I would not recommend them to anybody. Neither appliance were working when we purchased the home, and they came out. At first, with the dishwasher, they said that it needed a new gasket and they had to order it, and I told them it was fine to order the gasket. So, they ordered the gasket, they came back, they went to install the gasket, and then they said that they couldn't complete the installation because the floor underneath was not level, and that’s what the problem was.

    The gentleman that came out was very polite, but he did something to the refrigerator. It worked for a couple of hours, and then, it stopped working. So, we called back, and they came back the following week with the gasket to install the gasket. He did something with the dishwasher and said that it was working. I ran it once because it had been sitting idle for a while, just to flush the lines and stuff, and it didn't drain properly. There was an inch and a half of water in the bottom of the dishwasher, and that’s not sanitary. So, I called them back again, and they said it was because the floor wasn’t level underneath.

    They said they would come back out and they were gonna replace the compressor on the refrigerator. So, they did that. It again worked overnight and it made some ice once or twice that time, and then, it stopped again. Then, they said they were gonna replace the motherboard. So, the guy came out, did some stuff, and left. He came back the next week and told me he was here to retrieve the motherboard. And I asked, “What did the guy do last week? He goes, “I don't know, but he didn't get it.” And when he pulled the refrigerator out, it scratched the brand-new floors that had just been put in the house the week before. They have yet to contact us about the floors, the refrigerator still is not working, and the dishwasher still is not working. It’s been a nightmare.

    My husband called 2-10 a couple of days ago and spoke to somebody on Thursday, and told the guy what was going on. He had been told that they were gonna go ahead and buy us out of the refrigerator, and that they were gonna give us a price to purchase a new refrigerator, which is what the plan is supposed to do. If they can’t repair it, they're supposed to replace it. The guy from 2-10 said they were gonna send another contractor out here to look at it. And my husband told him that they already told us that they were gonna buy us out and that he needed to speak to a supervisor. He asked 10 times for a supervisor. And then, the guy put him on hold for 5 to 10 minutes, and came back and said somebody would call him back, and my husband's waiting for the call still.

    My friend bought her first home over a year ago. I finally visited as she lives a little farther than me. We were talking about her home and she mentioned getting a few things fixed through her home warranty. She then told me about 2-10 and how great they were and what they cover. I was amazed because I never heard of this. So she referred me and I signed up thinking that it is great to have. Something break and need to be replaced and my husband works very hard to fix them. I thought it would be great to have have this peace of mind. Well just 4 short days after I could start using my warranty I noticed that my heater was not working right, just my darn luck of course. It was 29 degrees outside and really cold inside.

    So I made a claim, they sent out a contractor two days later. 2-10 got the diagnosis and then denied my claim that the heater needed to be fixed and was out of Freon. They denied it because the problem was there before my contract started, even though I was unaware of it. I mean my heater worked just fine until the 10th. They also said that it was denied because my coils were dirty. Well I have someone do maintenance on our unit every April and every November. I had someone scheduled to clean my unit today on the 15th, I called my guy on Halloween to schedule a time for him to come but he said he was very busy and cleaning it wasn’t that important right now so I said the 15th was okay since I am off of work. So if you need anything fixed shortly after you can claim something, wait a while I guess. They do not want to pay for something if they don’t have to apparently. Going to a different company.

    The claims process with 2-10 Home Warranty was excruciating. For water heaters, 2-10 has a warehouse that they have to go to. Their contractor has to look at the situation first, determine whether or not they need a water heater, then they come back the next day or two later to install it. And I don't care for the length of time it took, from the time the person showed up until the water heater was installed.

    The first company 2-10 sent out, the person showed up and said he doesn't install water heaters. That was another delay of two days, so it took seven days for it to be rectified. Alex was the guy who installed the water heater, but in less than two months, it failed. We had to go through the whole thing again, which took five days. This time, Alex had to go out and determine if it was a failure on account of the manufacturer, which it was. He had to contact the manufacturer to get permission to put a new one in, and that took time.

    I switched all my properties to 2-10 on July 1st and I've had six or seven claims. Every problem I've had was with plumbing, and 2-10 would have to work through their contractors because when some of them go out, they claim that they don't do regular plumbing, while others claim that they only do water heater installation. Others say they only do plumbing and not water heater installation.

    And aside from timeliness in terms of getting things done, 2-10 also has to improve on answering their phone in a timely fashion. When you call in to file a claim, they don't have enough customer service people. So I'm on the phone, typically, for 20 minutes. Now, granted, they want you to file a claim online, I'm not an online person and I'm on the go. I sell real estate, and I'm never in front of my computer. And then, when you have a problem with the person that showed up and you call back to their customer service people, they can't handle the claim. Fortunately, because of my position as a real estate agent, I have a direct channel to their sales rep. Most of my clients who I sell the 2-10 warranty to don't have that opportunity to call somebody. There is no system in place that's adequate for when a problem arises, the customer can call and get ready access to the solution.

    I have a client two weeks ago with a plumbing issue, an attorney with a plumbing issue and myself with three apartments, so that's five plumbing issues. I have another client with an air conditioning situation that had she not stopped me in the middle the road, her frustration with 2-10 Home Warranty, she would have graded them zero. But because I have the back channel to the people that are in 2-10, I'm a hero with these three clients of mine, and got the air conditioning situation for her worked out. Customer service follow-up is awful with 2-10.

    Our gas water heater claim with 2-10 went well. They got their adjuster out quickly and helped us. The only thing that was a little frustrating was the hot water heater we had when we moved in here was old. And so, when we had to get the new one, we had to have some of the piping moved, and that cost came out of pocket. But that wasn't necessarily 2-10's fault. It just wasn’t covered. But overall, they treated us well during all that. And the hot water heater contractors were good. We also had some garage door issues a year or so ago, but the people they sent weren’t that great. Unfortunately, our garage door wasn’t opening. When they came out, it did open that time. They told us that we owed for that, and next time, we should’ve checked it before they came out. But overall, their contractors are good. And their customer service has been good and fair with us. They have helped us out with a couple of things we’ve had.

    I had a roof leak repaired through 2-10's contractor, and they did it while I was at work. I don't know if the roof was fixed but I'm sure somebody was up there because there's a white piece of paper hanging from my roof that wasn’t there prior. Also, the stain on the ceiling isn’t getting bigger, which would’ve spread by now, so it did seem like it was fixed.

    Now, I’ve been calling the roofing company at least once a week so I could pay them but no one is returning my calls. It's either they will call me back to get the payment over the phone, or someone is gonna come back to my house when I am there to patch the leak from the inside and repaint the ceiling, and I could pay then. I’m still in limbo right now but I’ll just keep reaching out to them. I will give them the benefit of the doubt because we had a storm here in Florida so maybe the roofing company had a lot on their plate. And it's not 2-10's fault.

    I’ve been a customer for about three and a half now when I purchased the house. Filing a claim seems to be pretty seamless. I had water heater issues, and they didn’t have any in-network plumbers, which was kind of odd ‘cause I do live in a bigger city, Toledo, but they allowed me to go out-of-network. I hired my own and all I had to do was send 2-10 a picture of the bill that I paid, and I got my full refund a week later. Typically, I go online to put a claim in. Their website is very seamless. If I’m not 100% sure of something and it’s multiple claims, like this last time I had multiple issues that kinda tied into each other so I wasn’t sure if it should be one or two, then I will call 2-10. A couple of years ago when I had my first experience with them, the contractor himself had issues getting the proper model number of exactly what 2-10 would have supported. He kinda cursed home warranties in general right off the bat. But towards me, he was very friendly.

    I've had 2-10 since end of June. I prefer submitting claims over the phone and so far, the reps I've spoken with have been fine. In a day or two, they'd send a contractor out. So far, those they've sent out have all been fine. The techs communicated well, trying to find the problem. The first time we called 2-10 for the garage door opener issue, the tech came out, thought he knew what the problem was and he fixed it. A couple days later, it didn't work. I called them back. Then, they said they’ll send a senior tech out. They did and he did a couple more things. Now, I’m on the third time.

    I just talked to 2-10 again today and told them that the problem has still not been solved and that their technician has to come back. And reviewing their notes, this time, they're asking for new sensors and new wiring, which is what the technician had stated if the problem wasn’t solved. The contractor said they had to get permission from 2-10 before they can schedule, even though it’s a recall. Each step, if you wanna try something different, they have to go back to 2-10 and go, “Mother, may I, may we do?”

    The only thing I must say, and I have no idea if it’s just 2-10’s practice or if it’s the industry’s practice, let’s say I’m allowed over $1000 for a particular appliance and I have a $100 deductible. And the service guy charges $900 for the work and I pay the $100 out of my pocket. Why is that $100 being deducted from the 1000 that I’m entitled when I’m paying for it. It’s like I’m being charged twice for it. That, to me, is not fair. That shouldn’t go against the allotted amount of money because it’s not coming out of 2-10’s pocket, it’s coming out of mine. For the most part, I let people find things out for themselves. If it’s so tremendous, I’d have gone out and go, “Hey, you gotta use this company.” But not with 2-10.

    Whenever I had to submit a claim with 2-10, it goes smoothly and they take care of it very quickly and efficiently. To me, it's pain-free and that's the most important thing. Everybody that they’ve sent out has been very professional, thorough and efficient. They’ve helped me with how I can prevent stuff or maybe do some home maintenance, so we don’t have to file claims in the future. They do excellent work and we've had zero issues after. I actually think that everything is better than it was even before it broke. My only thought is that it would be convenient if 2-10 had a mobile app. Right now, everything needs to be done on the webpage.

    I have a condo with a fridge that has a failed compressor. I paid the $100 deductible fee for a tech to come out. He replaced the compressor & when adding refrigerant, it wouldn't hold. Apparently there is a pinhole somewhere. I sent 2-10 some photos of an area that appears to have rust/corrosion (inside the freezer), however, Because parts for this fridge are discontinued, 2-10 is telling me they cannot replace it. I asked for a 2nd opinion & when they dispatched Sears, Sears told them they aren't familiar with the brand WOODS & won't service it. 2-10 then told me they don't have any other appliance contractors in my area & I have to find someone to diagnose it. I explained that if the parts are discontinued & the fridge is no longer made, I don't want to pay out of pocket for another tech to come out & tell me the same thing. This is my 1st experience with 2-10 and I do NOT recommend them. I plan to file a complaint with consumer affairs as well!

    I had two units out of three heaters that completely froze and flooded a part of the basement. So, we called the current company that serviced the house, and they told us that we had the service plan, and they could charge us a fee to come out. They can’t do anything until it unfreezes. So I hung up, and we mopped it all up. My husband got on to Google and it said to put the fans on, and then turn the thing off. That’s pretty much what you have to do, so we did that. The company came out the next day, and said that one unit had to be replaced and the other one had a leak but they didn’t know where the leak was. In order to find the leak, they've got to take it apart.

    My husband remembered that we got some warranty with the house, so we dug through the paperwork, and I called 2-10. They’ve responded great. The contractor came out, they added Freon to one unit. What needed to be done was just a patchwork for as old as the unit is, and because we’re in winter, we couldn’t take the risk of replacing it. But with what the repair would’ve been, we’re just replacing the unit. So the service was great. For actually not knowing anything about 2-10 and their service, it was a pretty painless experience.

    My wife has had 2-10 since she moved into the house 15 years ago then I moved down here about two years ago when we got married. Being given the runaround is probably the most favorable response that I could give for this organization. Of the six different plumbers they sent out, none of which were able to or willing to resolve the issue that we had. In fact, the first guy that came out said there was nothing he could do to help me and I was gonna have to take it up with my insurance company, and then he collected $75 and left.

    To say that I was dissatisfied is an absolute understatement. If I knew for a fact that they were in the bad with all these organizations that they work with, I would love to find out who set that up and have that person held accountable for what they did. But at least they're getting some type of kickback from these guys by coming into these houses, taking off the cover charge and not doing any work. And then the ones that actually came in and did some kind of work, created a bigger problem than the ones that didn't do anything. The fourth guy that came here and took the toilet bowl off to fix the clog said he fixed the clog, and then half hour later, I had more water pouring out of the open hole because he didn't put the toilet back on than when I had the original leak. So, 2-10 Home Warranty and everybody they work with are a bunch of criminals as far as I'm concerned.

    Up until the 11th time that I called them with an issue here, absolutely nothing was done except referring me to other plumbers. First, they referred one that was in Alabama. We live in Georgia. Next, they referred me to one that was approximately 100 miles away from our house and refused to come because why. Finally when we got to a person that helped resolve the issue, it took me several hours on the phone and talking to associates and then supervisors.

    At the end of the day, this whole thing that was supposed to be covered by my deductible of $75 wound up costing me over 1,000, which is still unreimbursed. They reimbursed us for the last $550 of it because I said to them I was taking them to small claims court and I would win because all they gotta do was look at the fact that they did not solve this problem, and I was still cleaning up after the mess. And then, I was reimbursed for the last plumbing expense where I had to go out of network to find someone to take care of the issue for that.

However, a couple of days later, I got a call where they said, "Oh, no. He's another $1,200 and some." I'm not sure where the miscommunication came from because the rep that called me was pointing a finger at the vendor saying it was the vendor's fault that they have decided to up the quote. Then, when I talked to the vendor, the vendor was saying, "No, it's the home warranty company that's changing things." So, that was a little frustrating because I did not know who to believe.

    The claims process with 2-10 is very difficult. I had a leaky water heater that was leaking onto our floor. And they said they had 24 hours to contact a service provider. Then they had weeks until they come out and diagnose the problem, and then they were gonna order the parts. And so, I was left with the unrepaired item for weeks. That is the system. The contractors contacted us. Unfortunately, what I have come to find is that what they do is they have agreements, and I've actually had two claims. I had one on the air conditioner problem, and one on the water heater that went out. In a really brief amount of time, we had a lot going on. They have contracts set up with local service providers, plumbers, and these service providers are generally small companies that say they'll do it at a really discounted price.

    The people I've had respond were not quick to respond. With the AC people, the first guy they sent out came twice, and I called and told them not to send that guy back. They finally sent a decent person. And rather than just replace the parts, they had to go through a series of just try this, try this, try this. Meanwhile, it was 90 degrees in our house, and our AC was not working. And so, it's a system set up to where they try to Band-Aid and Band-Aid and Band-Aid. And then, finally, I repaired it myself. And I just got them to cut me a check for part of what I spent. In the end, I did get $1,000 on each repair, so it's better than having nothing. But it's a really tough system to work with for the homeowner.

    2-10 is an affiliated business partner of Long & Foster, the brokerage company that I work for, and I've been with them since July of this year. Recently, I had a leak that was discovered in the ceiling of my main floor bathroom. I have the two levels above grade and then a basement. At the time, I had overnight guests on the lower-level unit and they texted me saying that they saw a stain on their ceiling. I was trying to figure out where was that coming from and it turned out that the stain was coming from the main floor bathroom. On that very same night, my daughter came upstairs to my room and said that there was a bubble in the ceiling of our bathroom. That was on the main floor and there was something going on on all three bathrooms.

    Instead of trying to place the claim online, I called 2-10 and spoke to a person. I asked if there would be three separate deductibles since it was a plumbing repair and the rep said if one trade person would come out, it would be one deductible. So, I explained everything that I was seeing and I was immediately assigned to All Star Plumbing.

    Then, two techs came out and took a look. They said that the issue with the upstairs bathroom is a matter of caulking and they showed me where it was. They said that they looked in the wall behind the shower diverter. They also cut a hole in the main floor bathroom ceiling and could not see where any of the leaking was originating from a joint, in any of the pipes. So, they cut an 18-inch by 18-inch opening in the ceiling, where they could see the drain to the shower, and they could see some of the plumbing from the faucets in the shower. So, they deduced that upstairs, it was as simple as caulking. And for whatever reason, the guy said that he would do all of that when he came back.

    On the main floor, he said that it was the diverter in the tub and as opposed to most tubs that has it on one end where there's also a tub spout and on the short end of the tub, mine is on the long wall. That's where the tub filler is and that's where the faucet is. That's also where there's a separate adjustment for temperature control and they cut a hole in the wall behind that which is in my daughter's closet and he immediately could see where the active leak was originating.

    He said it was coming from our faucet and that we have faucet coverage, but the kind of faucet that the warranty company would have him put in was not going to be as good as our faucet. He said that a lot of customers who need a faucet repair would just go out and buy their own faucet. They'd install it then the warranty company would pay for it. So, I said that that was what I'd do because I knew that I had a different kind of faucet. But he said that he may be able to order the piece in our faucet that was broken. So, I told him that'd be great as I didn't have to replace the faucet. He also said that either way, I was covered. He then got on the phone and when he came back, he told me that I didn't need to buy a faucet as they could find the piece. So that meant that there was going to be a return trip. And I figured out what was going on in all three bathrooms, so I was feeling pretty good.

    But that company originally came on a Thursday and said that they'd be back early on the following week. But on Monday and Tuesday morning, I didn't hear from them. Tuesday afternoon, I called All Star Plumbing and got voicemail. Wednesday, the same thing happened. I didn't call on Thursday but Friday morning, I called them again and this time the voicemail had changed. It said that they were closed almost as if the company was no longer in business. And the voicemail said, "If this is a call regarding a warranty, call your warranty provider."

    So, I called 2-10 and they said they were sorry for the inconvenience and that they'd have a different company come out. They assigned me to a second company called Smitty's. So, I called Smitty's and their tech came out the next day. It was an active leak and they upgraded it to an emergency service. When he was here, he said that he had to start from scratch because he was a second vendor, so he had to get approval. Then, I got a phone call from Smitty's explaining that in order to stop the active leak, he could cap both lines but my warranty wouldn't pay for that. And if he capped both lines, I would be paying him out of pocket at $100 per line. I agreed and told him to do that because I didn't wanna cause more damage to the ceiling below. So, I paid him $100 for the hot line and $100 for the cold line.

    Then, I got a phone call from the warranty company saying that I have faucet coverage. By that time, I called Delta because all of the faucets in my house are Delta faucets and they're supposed to have these limited lifetime warranties. I realized that the faucets in the main floor bath was so unique in its placement and in the fact that it had three separate pieces where a lot of them has just a hot and cold then the tub spout. Delta told me that they had it set up where they will send you a text, the text enables them to access your camera, then you can snap a photo of what you have and they can match it. So, we did that and Delta said that they don't make that faucet anymore, but they were going to send me a replacement of what is similar to that. So, they were going to now send me a free faucet.

    I figured with Delta sending me a faucet and Smitty's saying that the warranty company would allow him to install the faucet because it was a warranty covered repair kinda thing, he could cap the lines, so that would stop the immediate leak, then as soon as the faucet comes in, all I had to do was call Smitty's. I then got a phone call from 2-10 and the woman that I spoke to confirmed everything that Smitty’s told me. She said that I have faucet coverage and that since the faucet was going to be repaired by manufacturer warranty, they were not going to provide the faucet, but they would provide for the installation of the faucet once I receive it. So, once I get it, I should just call Smitty's.

    When the faucet came, I called Smitty's and I was told that the tech could come out on a Thursday, between 9 o'clock and 12 o'clock. So, I took the morning off from work. But at 11 o'clock, he was still a no show. At 11:30 o'clock, I called and went into voicemail. But I got a text response saying he was on the way. But at 1:30 o'clock, I called again and got no response. I then texted him to give me an ETA but I got no response. I called again, and again, and again. Finally, a gentleman answered. This was the same number of the gentleman who was at my house before. I saved that number, so I was calling directly. But the person that answered said that he was on his way to D.C. and I told him that I don't live in D.C.. I asked if he could he give me an ETA and he said he didn't know what time he was going to get here. I reminded him of our appointment but it fell on deaf ears. So, I was in tears.

    I then called the warranty company back and explained to them the whole trilogy. They said they were so sorry and that they were gonna get me another vendor. They said they were gonna escalate my claim and make it urgent. But they had given me one number and when I called that number, that person said that they were booked solid for the next couple of weeks. I called back and they tried to give me a second number but I asked them to call and find out who could come. I told them that instead of hanging up with me, they could put me on hold until they get somebody. So, they found a company but they said that they would not be able to come out that day but could come the very next day.

    When they came, they took a look at everything that was going on then said that they almost had to start from scratch and that they had to get approval. But I told them that they already had approval and I have the faucet. All they needed to do was install it. But they said they couldn't do it at the time and they had to verify if the insurance company would pay for it, then they had to schedule to come back out. Since they explained it that way, I took them at their word and agreed. Later on that day, I got a phone call from the warranty company telling me that my faucet coverage was $1,000 and I had exhausted all of my coverage because they had spent all of this money paying these other vendors who didn't do anything. And now, the only thing that was left was $150.

    But I told them that the first company was the one that I paid my $89 to. Then with Smitty's, my deductible was waived because I already paid it. For the third company that came out, my deductible was waived because again, I already paid it. But apparently, the warranty company paid all of these other vendors to do the work that they said that I was covered for and when I finally found somebody who could do it, they didn't wanna pay them because I only had $150 left.

    So, when all was said and done, as of November 27th, I still have a bathroom that is non-functional on the main floor and there's a hole cut in the wall. But to date, I have a check on my counter for $150 from 2-10 because the woman finally said that all they could do was send me a check for $150. So, I've spent $89 for the deductible and $200 to have my lines capped, but somehow, I've got a check for $150 and still a bathroom that's not working. Apparently the only way to get things fixed right now is to pay for the repair out of pocket but I don't know when I'm gonna be able to do that.

    I had an AC that wasn't working before we moved out of the our old house, and I’ve had a good experience and a much better experience with 2-10 than the previous company that we had for warranty. I submitted my claim to 2-10 online and they got someone out quickly. It was an easy process. The contractor came out and he fixed it. When we had a toilet once that needed repair, it took the other warranty company, American Home Shield, three weeks for them to get someone to come out. At that point, because it was taking so long, I went ahead and had to pay out of pocket and then get reimbursed. Then I got another instance where it took them a couple of weeks to get someone out. The service was horrible. So, based on that, we decided that anybody will be better than AHS.

    When we had a home inspection and there were some things that needed to be done. They found in the home inspection that there were several times where we needed them to send someone out. And each time, it was quick. So, I highly recommend them. It was a friend of mine who recommended 2-10 and who had a pleasant experience, too.

    We had issues with our stove and refrigerator last year, right at the holidays. We got someone who came in, said the stove was fixed, then wrote down something differently. They went back and said something else in reference to the part. So, we had repeated fixes until the circuit board could not get fixed. We had to end up getting the payout which was really frustrating because 2-10 wanted to deduct the money from the payout, which already was not gonna pay for what I needed anyway.

    With our refrigerator, the contractor said that it couldn't be fixed but they told their employer that they could get another part. They also told 2-10 that they were gonna fix it. So it’s contradictory. 2-10 thought that the contractor came and got the circuit board, but they never came. So, we were sitting here, waiting, trying to figure out when they were coming. No fault of their own, but no one was really checking. Even once it was fixed, it still didn't work. Over the last couple of months, we ended up not having a refrigerator in our kitchen. We had to use one in our garage. So, we just received the payout with that. Just this past Friday, I finally received a brand-new refrigerator. They were only paying us $300, but the refrigerator costs $2000. I was not gonna buy a white one when everything else was stainless steel. I wanted something decent. The product that I had that broke wasn’t high-end but it was still a very good product.

    I don't wanna say it’s always the contractor, but there are definitely issues with some of the contractors that 2-10 provides for their customers. We’ve just been going along with it. I don't know if it’s the same ones that come up but whenever we hear the contractor's names, we’re like, “Oh, shoot.” We actually have had a change mid-stream where one came out and we asked 2-10 to send somebody else out. But that means we have to pay another $75 if it’s somebody different.

    We’re always trying to figure out what’s the best thing to do as far as the money and the service. Customer service is huge when they're coming to your home and you're expecting great service. I expect courteousness, punctuality and for me to be told the truth. We’ve had one where our time was between 12:00 and 5:00. It was almost 5:00, and no one showed up and no one called. We didn't know if they were gonna show up. We took off work to be here in order to meet the service people and we had to do it again. So, a lot of those things became frustrating. I really wanted to change warranty but my husband is the one that renews it. He did not wanna be bothered with having to start all over with a new company.

    When we had all the other issues, I was getting all the service people that we were dealing with on the line, and it seemed like they did not understand our frustration. But this last couple of times, especially with the refrigerator payout we just received, we had someone that totally understood and was very courteous. We really appreciated that. 2-10 really gotta try to understand the customer’s issues. They need to stay more in communication with the customer. They could have the repair person write something out before any work done so that when they go back and say that they told us that we needed a certain part, we could say it that was not what happened.

    I had an issue where the motor had burned out on the furnace because there was a faulty fuse. The contractor 2-10 sent out came the next day. He was very efficient. We texted back-and-forth and he gave me updates. But he initially texted and said that 2-10 needed to supply a motor which was gonna take a week. If he ordered it, though, he could get it in a day. It was below freezing and we were in the house. It was really cold so I called 2-10 and asked if there was any way that the contractor could supply it as opposed to them doing it. They put me on hold, got the contractor on the phone, and confirmed that he could get the part. They approved for him to do that which was great.

    Initially, I was really bummed out thinking 2-10 would leave me without heat for a week. But after our call, 2-10 resolved it. The contractor was able to come out. We were about four days without heat, but it could have been a full week if 2-10 didn’t let the contractor order the part. It would have been great though if 2-10 let him do that in the beginning. I’m not sure what the interaction was with the contractor when he first got in touch with 2-10. But since they were saying that they wanted to order the pump and knowing that it would take a week, it would have been good if maybe they could have gotten in touch with the homeowner directly and just told me the situation. I then could’ve immediately said it was below freezing where I live and that we had no heat.

    I think it could have been a lot less stress and hassle for me having to kind of take the initiative on my own and go back-and-forth with the contractor then call 2-10. With that, we could have saved a step. That could be an improvement for 2-10. If you’re in Texas and your air conditioner goes out, that would be a more immediate need than it is in December when your air conditioner goes out. If you lose your heat in this winter, it’s cold. But in the end, I was happy with the result. I understand 2-10 was also trying to control cost.

    2-10 has a pretty hands-on system as far as the online submissions and they engage with the technical support in a timely manner. They let you know promptly once a company has been assigned and who that is. However, same with other warranty companies, 2-10 is limited by whatever contact information is given by their contractors. They also lower their price to get you in, and then they raise it when it’s time for renewal. Other than that, my engagements with them when I call the support desk, as well as with the contractors, have been great.

    Our hvac system went out. Because of the fine print, they’d only cover the $800 furnace. We still had to pay $1500 to the contractor. We had to sit in our freezing cold house for a month and a half before the furnace 2-10 ordered was delivered. Then, we discovered they ordered the wrong size furnace and wouldn’t cover the cost of their mistake. So we had to pay an additional $200. This home warranty is NOT worth your money.

    We bought an older house and some things just come up. We got 2-10's home warranty and it's nice to be able say that you pay $75 then somebody comes out and fixed the issue or do regular everyday maintenance. That’s cool and the people that they have sent out so far were fine. But when you start getting into the nitty-gritty, I'm thinking that the money I paid 2-10 could have been put over something else.

    2-10's claims process sometimes can be a bit confusing because when I was explaining what the problem was, certain representatives thought they knew what I was saying instead of just listening. And when they were trying to put in a work order, I was telling them that I needed to know which worker was it because they were talking about a co-pay of $75. So, if you're sending me a plumber, that’s one thing. If you're sending me somebody else that will fix something else, that’s a whole other thing.

    So, I need clarity in making sure that the people that I'm really needing and can get help from are sent. I also need clarity in what is actually covered for me and the issue is on the knowledge of the person I was speaking to. I read the contract and when I called to ask to verify what the coverage is, they said it was right there. But I could not understand what was actually covered from what I read and that was why I called them for guidance. I am also confused when we get into those gray areas such as when the techs have already come out for an issue and it was the same thing they came out for but it really didn’t get fixed, and because of that we were having some other issues. When I call for clarity, I would like to talk to someone who can give me that or read back to me what I'm reading on the paper. But 2-10's reps weren’t unprofessional, they just didn’t know.

    The last thing I called about was the plumbing issue that we're still trying to figure out, and I told the rep that I needed to know what was covered and what was not covered. At the moment, the problem is really becoming worst and in my head, I'm thinking that if I have to figure it out on my own, why am I paying 2-10? If I have to call another contractor and I have to do this, why do I have a home warranty? I get that there are certain things that they won't cover, but I need to know if they don’t do hydro jetting. Aside from that, we have an extra thing for this septic and I wanted to know if there is a cost for that. I need to know that that’s an expense that I would have to pay before they even start working on it. I don’t wanna be on the phone with the insurance company while I've already got the septic people out there, because I have people coming in for the septic eventually.

    It's funny because when the contractor initially came out, he could not figure out the issue. In my mind, I thought I just paid somebody $75 to come and troubleshoot but I didn’t get an answer. He said it could be this or that, and both things that he told me were not covered by 2-10. So, I don't know if it's the septic and if I do the septic and I still have the same issue, that's not necessarily on 2-10 and I'd have money that’s going out. So, I need to know what part of the work will 2-10 cover if the tech does the septic. They said it needed to be cleaned and if we cleaned it out, we were gonna be the ones to do it because that’s not covered by 2-10. It's only covered if the septic is broken or something is wrong with the tank itself.

When we first started with 2-10, we had awesome service and we had an awesome rep named Emily who was visible. When she was there, we didn't have any issues. Now, that we have a new one and we haven't seen that one in years. When we call, we don't get any response. As a real estate agent, I usually tell customers about my personal experience when I try and sell warranties to them. Lately, my experience with 2-10 has been not satisfactory and I'm losing confidence. The last claim was pretty difficult. They just wanted to put a Band-Aid on something that they needed to repair. It just wasn't handled in a proper fashion. We got it taken care of but it was not an easy process.

    Also, they fixed the AC once about a year and a half ago. Again, they put a Band-Aid on something that should have been replaced. It was a mismatched system. They put a three and a half-ton condensing unit with a four-ton interior unit. It was constantly tripping our breaker. It finally fried out the outdoor compressor. When the technicians came out, they said it's still under warranty and they were gonna fix the compressor or the fan. I told them the existing problem that they did from the beginning. Finally, I got a supervisor to realize that it was a mismatched system and it wasn't efficient. It was gonna cost 2-10 more in the long run that to fix it the proper way, to begin with.

    The 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty's claims process was easy. It was all done online. And as long as you do a bunch of things in one, it’d be reasonably priced. The interaction I’ve had with the contractors so far has been good. I didn’t run into problems of not being able to repair things in the first go-around and not having the right spare parts. And they even had to find a new dishwasher for us because they couldn’t source the parts. They took care of that and that seems to have worked out well.

    It took a while though but once the technician came out and unidentified that it was the main board, he went back to his house and the next day he said, “I can't find that main board. It’s not available and I’ll send in a thing to the…” It took an extremely long time for 2-10 to agree to pay for a new dishwasher. When you’re hand washing dishes for a family of five and you're used to a dishwasher, that gets a little annoying. All in all, it took six weeks for them to finally come to the conclusion that they would cut a check for a dishwasher. They selected the dishwasher based on our model, and then it was either you take the one that they were gonna buy for you, which we felt wasn’t a like-for-like, or we take a payout option. We took the payout because what they were offering wasn’t what we would want installed in our kitchen.

    We had another claim out for an electrical panel but the contractor that 2-10 reached out to never contacted us. It is not 2-10's fault though. It looks 2-10 only had one local electrician on their list. Maybe they could try to get more providers on their list in the Columbia area, at least for the electrician category. But 2-10 told us to go ahead and contact our own contractor and that's what we did. He came by and we're just waiting for him to send over a written diagnosis and quote so we can contact 2-10 again to see if they would be willing to reimburse part or all of it.

If we get a 2-10 on it, let roll with 2-10." I have a lot better experience with 2-10 with my buyers and they all seem to love it. When we moved in the house, the inspection came back great. Luckily we had our warranty with 2-10 in place. After this cold snap, the heat, for some reason, didn't click on. It was kind of an easy fix. We were laughing because it'll probably be three years before it even comes up. But we had three incidences come up. When we submit a claim with 2-10, they go through the process. Sometimes, I'm not even barely off the phone and I've already gotten a response. They would email out the confirmation.

    As far as the subcontractors they use, they've all been great. They keep us up-to-date and set the appointment right away. They've all been very polite. They seem to know the process really well. They obviously do a lot of business for 2-10. But our recent claim with the plumbing when we had the hot water heater incident, the guy said, "2-10, I'll call them, but typically, they're not gonna cover preventative maintenance. And because it is producing hot water, they are gonna want it flushed first to see if that takes care of the problem," which was an additional $75. So we're paying an extra fee. But he made it clear that if it's not working, then they'll take it a step further. I'm not gonna have to repay it. They did a good job of explaining it and letting us know why. I love 2-10.

    I had one positive and one horrible experience with 2-10 Home Warranty. One claim was for the plumbing and when the contractor came out, they uncovered some issues. They weren't sure whether they were gonna be covered or not covered. It took almost two and a half weeks of us not having a toilet. It was brutal. I escalated it on three different occasions. It went from one vendor dropping it because they said that 2-10 didn't handle it properly, to another vendor picking it up. When the other vendor picked it up, they said it wasn't expedited so there was no way that they could expedite it. They received it as a standard call. And at that point, we had already lost a week, not having it working.

    Long story short, I was livid. And I wasn't going another weekend without a toilet on the main level. So, I did a buyout, and basically forfeited any rights that I had if the toilet were to ever break again. But that was the only way the toilet could get fixed. And that was for a $300 toilet. It's something that should have been rectified and fixed within a day or two. There was no communication and no sense of urgency.

    The other claim was for our Sub-Zero refrigerator. 2-10 did not have a contractor for it, so they told me to contract it out. I contacted somebody, who then came out, did the estimate, outlined everything and submitted it. The vendor said they won't deal with a home warranty company but they will give me everything that I need to present to get the claim processed. I paid around $2,500, and then I called and gave the girl at 2-10 all the details. And she was wonderful. She processed everything, including the reimbursement check, and I had a check for the full amount within a couple of weeks. That part was great. It was like I was dealing with two different companies. You would think that the $2,500 repair would've been the challenging one, and not a $300 toilet.

    One problem is that 2-10 contracts with mom-and-pops, and a lot of times, the mom-and-pop contractors who are trying to grow their business don't necessarily have the capacity to carry product, this, that and the other thing. The other problem is they're given 48 hours to reply, but there's no sense of urgency. So, if you put a claim in on a Wednesday and they reply on a Friday that they don't have availability till next Thursday, then you lost a week to a week and a half. That has been typical of other home warranties that we've had as well.

    Also, if you call back and you're given a random person, then you have to explain everything again. And then when you ask for a supervisor, they say that there's not one available and someone would call you back in 24 hours. But if you're wanting to expedite it, you do not want to wait 24 hours. I did that three times with the toilet. And I was willing to pay a plumber and get reimbursed just because I had the ability to get somebody out and 2-10 didn't. They said that the vendor knew the contract and the vendor said they misrepresented what the vendor said. It was a whole he said, she said, and it was not pretty.

    To get somebody out and be reimbursed, it has to go through authorization. For the toilet, we had a vendor come out and assess everything, then they submitted it for reimbursement and what needed to be paid. 2-10 said that they were not going to cover all of it, which is fine, but they should have some ability to say they authorize up to $200 or whatever amount. But what 2-10 wants is for the vendor to be on the phone with them and tell them what the issue is. And vendors don't have time to wait up to an hour and a half on hold to tell 2-10 what the issue is. So, what I did was I got on the phone 45 minutes before the vendor needs to speak with them and literally sit through the whole process. And by the time the person actually gets on the phone, after I've been on hold, the vendor can talk to them. But then, that's wasting hours of my time being away from work that I shouldn't have to do.

When we moved into the house, we started sorting through all the things like getting services for the garden and the pool. About two months after we had moved in, we came across an issue with one of the pool equipment things. They gave us a hell of a time and went through two weeks. There was an immediate disapproval. But what really frustrated us was that it was very evident that 2-10 really didn’t put much thought into the denial of the claim. Their rep hadn’t contacted the contractor and spoken to him personally. She hadn’t looked at any of the documents we had sent through. They just didn’t care and it was like, “Okay, let’s give all of these claims a disapproval and then if the people really fight for it, then I’ll look at it.” Isn’t this why we have them for when something is broken down?

    Then, they finally approved it. And the guy they had sent out was their recommended technician. He was great and did a good job. He said there was no problem and that something has just gone out that 2-10 was not aware of and that it should be covered. We had to prove with the home inspection that it absolutely was not identified there. It was just murder and was very off-putting. I was thinking we chose the wrong warranty.

But I liked the people who worked with me on the hot water tank that I just got. I didn’t like their professionalism though. It took me over two and a half weeks to get my check and for somebody to follow back up on it. Plus, they never uploaded my paperwork and when they did, they sent it back and said that I owed more money to them.

There’s still one little part that the contractor is waiting for and although that little part may make the refrigerator a little better, it’s functioning okay without that.

    They were recommended by the realtor and we never intended to renew with them. And now, this is our third year with them. 2-10 has been exactly what you think they should be and they’ve exceeded our expectations. It’s mostly online, but over the phone as needed when I file a claim and the experience is outstanding. The website can be a little confusing at times though like I know my wife, sometimes, can’t find things immediately. They could make it more user-friendly, a little more direct and dummy-proof. When people go to the website, they’re generally in distress and they should immediately be able to initiate a claim, or follow up a claim.

    We’ve only had great experiences with all the service providers that they sent out. We never would’ve used them because we didn’t know about them, especially the last one we used. The plumbing company we used for our water heater was excellent as far as customer service and working with us ‘cause we had no hot water. We were pleasantly surprised the quality has been very high.

    I had an issue with the ice maker and the freezer door was not shutting correctly. 2-10's contractor came and looked at the refrigerator and determined what was wrong. He then told me that he was going to submit the parts that were needed and 2-10 would determine whether to order the parts. The contractor called and told me that they had gotten the parts and he came and replaced everything. And it has been working fine since. With any warranty company, I don't like not being able to pick the contractor that I want to work on my things. But being in a new home, it's still financially beneficial to have it at least in the beginning. I would just like to have more options as far as the contractor to use.

    We've been with 2-10 for 20 years and like the cost savings on major work that we’ve had to have done. We just have to pay the deductible. Calling them means to sit on hold for quite a while so we submit claims online. One of my concerns is the quality of work. 75% of their contractors are okay. But often, if you ask for a vendor that you liked before, they’re no longer participating with 2-10, which is a hassle. You get somebody new a lot and I’m not sure that the contractors they work with are all good. When they assign a contractor, I look up the contractor online and see the rating. I have called back a couple of times and asked for somebody else.

    We have a Sub-Zero and people that are qualified and certified on Sub-Zero don’t wanna deal with warranty companies. We've had 2-10 send somebody out who wasn’t certified on Sub-Zero but had worked on them, but there’s a big difference. Those units are very expensive and you don’t want just anybody working on them. The tech supposedly fixed the ice maker, but they didn’t. They came out twice and it didn’t work. Finally, I talked to 2-10 and I said that I gotta have Tri-City, who is the local specialized, certified Sub-Zero vendor. 2-10 agreed to pay the claim on that one and it was good to know that they were willing to work with us.

They give the contractor my name, and they also give me the contractor's number for if I don’t hear from them within 24 hours, but they usually call me right away. There is only one contractor, a plumber, that I asked 2-10 to not send to my house again, but other than that, I’ve been happy with everyone that has come out. And the ones I like, I have them on the refrigerator. My latest claim was for a leak and I had a contractor whose sticker is on my refrigerator. There was some miscommunication, but that was the front desk, not him. He had two gentlemen come out. The guy was very good and reliable. He was really busy, though. He came in the morning, and then he had to go somewhere else, but he came back by the end of the night. They worked into the night, but they got it done.

    When the evaporator tube leaked, it led to a freeze in the indoor unit. Then when it defrosted after that, the water in the pan cut it off and it grounded the condenser out. The same thing happened in the other unit. A private contractor did everything and out of the $15,000 I paid, I got around $1,500 back. I wanted to recoup whatever parts broke and about 30% of what I had paid. But the lady just gave me the cost of the Freon and one condenser.

The tradespeople don’t seem to like them very much, though. Part of their process is calling and getting things authorized, and they wait on hold for a really long time to get the authorization. When they're trying to complete a repair or need to order a part, there’s a long period where they apologize and say that they are on hold but are doing the best. They are amazing tradespeople, and we try to be flexible. But recently, I’ve engaged with a couple of other warranty companies, and they seem to do things a little bit faster.

    I bought a home about 10 months ago and 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty was advised from my Realtor to have, so I agreed. But I had a couple of issues with them. I had two claims to solve and unfortunately, every time I had to solve something, the issue was pre-condition so we needed to change it. Basically, I needed to change the item and not to repair it. So, if I’m going to buy another item, I will have a warranty from the producer. And if I have a warranty from producer, I don’t need 2-10. Also, when I had a problem with the dishwasher, 2-10 sent me an unprofessional contractor. But, it was not their fault. They wanted to change the contractor, but I just calculated the cost and it’d be $100 every time just to diagnose or do the initial assessment.

    I had another issue a couple of weeks ago with the central heating. Again, they sent me a guy who told me, “We could repair it but it’s not going to be a good repair, so you need to change it.” He talked about that but 2-10 didn’t agree with the change. They just covered $300 and I needed to change the whole unit, which was 6,500 bucks, more or less. So, even though 2-10 has a very nice and easy to use website, every time you have a real issue, you better have the original warranty of the item and go to the original warranty provider, not with 2-10. So, I don’t think I’m going to renew the contract and use them again.

I’ve had a lot of claims this first year that I’ve lived in this house. Everybody has been really responsive. There was only one issue one time, and they resolved it real fast. I had a plumbing issue, and I didn’t know exactly what was wrong. I just said that there was no water coming out of this line. The customer service representative said that they needed a plumber who can snake, but they didn’t have any inside of their network, so I had to get my own plumber and they would make the claim. I said okay.

    When the guy came, he told me that I didn’t need a snaking. It just needed a new filter, but 2-10 told me that they didn’t cover that. I told them that they were the ones who diagnosed it with snaking. They were the ones who said to do it. After that, they apologized and covered it.

I've had a total of three claims, where one has been successful, and two had issues. Both of those experiences were involving large waste of my time, involving calling 2-10 numerous times asking very direct questions that I got incorrect answers to, and it wasn't 'till down the line after spending all this time, then I get told that it wasn't gonna get covered.

    I got a work order number for one claim and then down the line, they said they would not cover it. There was another time, they brought someone else and said they would not cover it. In that latter case, I have my second AC system in my home that was a split level system, and I talked to multiple people because it took me a while to get a service contractor that could work on that system to begin with. Every time I called 2-10, I've asked if the system that I have would be covered. Everyone said yes until the contractor came out, looked at the system, and then 2-10 came back to tell me that they don't cover it.

    My Freon split system unit stopped blowing cold air initially. There was a company called Max Air that came out and took a look at it, and said that the blower unit had gone bad. So, they came back to reinstall the blower unit. But as a result of installing that unit, there still wasn’t cold air being blown out. During that time, the weather had changed, so we had a need for warm air. And that wasn’t working, either. So, they kept coming out numerous times to try to make adjustments. The same technician came out to the house every single time and he didn't honestly know what he needed to do to fix it, and he’d be on the phone with someone from his office, trying to get it solved.

    But it eventually got to the point after two weeks, where we weren’t making any progress, and he had kind of given up and said that we would have to have an electrician come in to rewire the wiring to the thermostat that I had reached out to a different company. In talking to Michael at 2-10, he understood my frustration and said that I could go out with a different company, and they could come out and perform the repair. That was what I did.

    They had to come out twice, but they were able to make the fixes. He said that my unit was a 220 or a 240, and Max Air didn't recognize or realize that. So, when they started redoing and reworking stuff, they were working it as a 120. And that was why the voltage to the thermostat had died. There was also some kind of board that they needed to replace. That was why they came back the second time to make the fix. But the unit’s working fine now.

    I thought 2-10 was phenomenal. I was really frustrated with Max Air, but Michael really quickly identified my frustration and just started working with me and trying to, the first couple of times, reschedule Max Air to come back out. When we realized that we weren’t gonna be able to get it accomplished with the company that 2-10 was trying to initially contract with, he was ready to kinda keep me updated. He offered to give me an allowance to go buy heaters, which we ended up not needing to do, but that was good.

    I would certainly tell 2-10 not to use Max Air again. But that may have also been that one technician and just sheer bad luck. But Max Air certainly wasn’t willing to take any responsibility, or realize that things weren’t working with the same technician. So, the company that 2-10 was using was terrible. But 2-10 itself was great in keeping me updated and following up with me.

I contact 2-10 over the phone and most of their reps are pretty good at their job. They know the processes. A lot of it is a little bit of redundant information. They ask you over and over, but I understand. They’re reading off of a script. And because I’m not the homeowner, I have to reiterate who I am a couple of times.

    And then of course it’s not directly property management related so there’s not a place for the tenant’s name and contact, phone number. So, there’s always a bit of a sticky wicket. But overall, they’re very responsive, very helpful and can help choose the vendors that we prefer to work with. The majority of the time the vendors are very professional, very courteous and easy to work with. We have had one or two vendors that we tell 2-10 we don’t want to work with. And 2-10 is very good about not issuing that dispatch. Plumbing and appliances claims are always tricky because you can resolve one problem that is troubleshooted only to learn that there's something else. But on a whole, 2-10 has been pretty good.

The process took a little bit because they had to order parts, which is understandable, so the whole thing took at least three to four weeks.

    2-10 should send out somebody experienced, and not one who cannot work on an LG refrigerator, or whatever brand it might be.

    I called 2-10 and it was a very painful process, ‘cause I called and apparently it was five ’til closing on a Sunday night. So, the guy was telling me he didn’t have anybody to send out to me because he had no approved people in my area, and that if they had to put in a request, it would be 48 hours before somebody got there. I told him that wasn’t acceptable because I had sewerage backed up in my bathtub and I had no idea how it got there, so waiting to call somebody was not an option. He told me something about needing to call into a number for authorization. I tried to do that and either the system wasn’t working right or I wasn’t working right with it. It would tell me I wasn’t doing something right, then it would bounce me to a ringing phone number telling me it was gonna connect me with somebody, which would promptly tell me that the office was closed and I needed to call back within working hours and then it would hang up.

    I proceeded with the water clean up people because there was a leak. They also drained and sanitized the bathtub. Then the plumber came because I had tried to explain to him that since I don’t know how the sewerage got there, I just couldn't have him drain it. I needed to have something done so that I could flush toilets and do things, and I’d be comfortable that sewerage was not gonna come pouring out of my bathtub. I called the next day said, “This is what happened and this is what I did.” The first person that I talked to said, “I don’t know if they’ll pay you ‘cause you didn’t get prior authorization.” And I was like, “It’s not that I didn’t try. I called, and this is what happened.” She then put me through to somebody who, when I talked to them, was like, “We’ll pay you $55 on this and then a little bit on the other claims.”

    So, we were gonna do three claims, one for the emergency call out and one for plumbing, and one that they were calling either concealed or not concealed. The rep was like, “I don’t know if it’s a concealed pipe because the restoration guys had come and they cut a hole in the drywall to see where it was leaking, and then hooked up the dehumidifiers and the air sanitizers." I was like, “It was definitely a concealed pipe. It’s just not presently concealed." He would submit it as a concealed pipe, and then at that point I’d get around maybe $700 or $800. I was not happy about that. At some point, somebody talked with the plumbing company. The plumbing company kept writing that it was not installed properly. I said, “It can’t be ‘cause it’s been working". And so, that caused a problem. I went out to my car and somebody left a message and told me I was only gonna get $400 back. So, I got irritated.

    I got some information from the realtor and he put me in contact with two home warranty people. I had already picked another company within a couple of days, and then a guy named Brian called me. He thought we could get more. They had settled on x amount of dollars, close to $1,400 for all the claims. At that point, I was told I had been mailed two checks. I was like, “I don’t have two checks, I only have one check.” And so, I called again and I got a person who seemed to have some knowledge, and so we figured it out that there was another check for two total amounts. I ended up getting things settled, so I didn’t walk away with $400 out of 2,000 that I spent that night.

    I was real happy with the keying though. 2-10 paid that and I had spent a lot more money on it. It was upfront about how much money I was gonna get back towards rekeying, so I was glad to get anything. But overall I'm dissatisfied. The website is stupid as it doesn’t really let me see anything. It’s like, “Here’s a service claim,” but I can’t go in there and see where this is at. It’s just these blocks of service claims and it just says service claim. Plus they charged me a weird service fee, which I didn’t appreciate, for using my credit card.

    I made a claim for my water heater that was not working and using the website was easy for me. The tech was really nice and he took care of the problem that I had. He went here twice, one for the inspection of the water heater, what was wrong with it and if it needed to be fixed or replaced. He told us it needed to be replaced since it was a pretty old water heater, so he replaced it for us. It didn't take that long. He came in on a Thursday, and then I called 2-10 back that we were gonna do the replacement, and he came back on a Friday. Now the water's heating perfectly like we like it to be heated.

    My parents used to have 2-10. And then, we ended up buying a house and the seller bought 2-10 warranty for it for a year. After it expired, we just renewed it. I filed a claim online for a dryer that stopped working. It's easier to use their website than talking to someone on the phone because everything is just there. 2-10 sent a contractor out in two days. He was one of my buddies that works for the company. Their company is really good. We've always used them, like my parents always had. I just told 2-10 if I can get to talk to them. So, that was what they ended up doing. However, one part was backordered, but when they had all the parts ready, the dryer was up and running in one day. We ended up calling about the microwave because it was doing some weird thing, where it wouldn't stay on over seven minutes. They ended up fixing that too.

    When my washing machine stopped working, I called 2-10 and they got somebody sent out. The tech was here within a couple of days. The washing machine was filling with water but it wasn't doing any of the washing parts. He said that he was gonna recommend replacement because it was pretty broken. The process for the people to look over it and decide whether to replace or fix it took longer than I expected. I finally called in and they said that it was approved to be replaced. I wasn't too happy with the item that was gonna be replaced so I took the cash option.

    The lady who authorized to send the check said that she was also gonna submit a $75 reimbursement for paying for the technician. She told me it would come in two different checks, but that they should be sent on the same day. I am still waiting for the $75. It's four days late, but, not past the 10 to 14 days that she gave me. However, on Monday, I got my check for the amount of 365. The model that I had was a $700 washer, so getting 365 for it was like a kick in the groin. Things worked out in the end though. I found on Lowe's nicks row, that the top-of-the-line GE was at around $440 and it was even better than what I was trying to replace. So I paid the tax and got it. All in all, 2-10 was extremely helpful.

He didn't even patch it, repair it or put the shelf back in. He came back several times because certain things weren't working. He did the job, but he didn't finish the wall.

    I had something in my heating system that all of a sudden stopped working. And then, initially, there was some switch that was gone. 2-10 sent somebody who replaced that and then they transferred one over, then again it was shut off. Then they diagnosed it and there was one more problem. There were multiple occurrences and multiple problems in that issue.

    Overall, 2-10 has been pretty good. But every time the contractors come and diagnose the appliance I pay 100 bucks anytime for one hour. It was like Friday and there was no availability, so they came back on Monday. The whole weekend I have not had the heating. They came back and then diagnosed a separate one and again they charged me $100. So, it was kind of a compass back and forth process. The contractors seemed to be okay with the process. They said that it is their process that we have to get in touch with 2-10. If it is anything other than heat, you can go back and forth. But anything related to heating, which is in winter, it’s most common factor that at least the process should be more regulated.

    We called 2-10 when our gas water heater was leaking and they sent out a plumber. But it took about two weeks to get things scheduled. The claims process was difficult. I had to go through many different prompts to finally get someone on the phone. Then it took a few weeks to get someone out and when trying to determine what type of water heater was going to be installed, that was unclear for a while. I was initially told I was getting one brand of water heater, and then later was told a different brand, and then it ended up with the brand I was told the first time. It seemed like anyone that I spoke to at 2-10 had not really understood what was going on and there wasn’t any clear communication, and I was told multiple different things along the process.

    The contractors that come out are certainly like a minimalist type of thing, someone who has limited amount of experience and isn’t going to do anything extra compared to if you brought a plumber out who might change all of the shutoffs for the water heater as where they’re gonna leave as much existing piping as possible in order to save the most amount of money. I ended up getting a new water heater out of the deal that didn't actually save money, but it’s like 2-10 goes the cheapest route possible. We used them for our furnace. Ironically enough, it broke two weeks after our water heater. That process was also very unclear. So, after dealing with them for a few processes now, I think I would consider another company, and after doing a little more research, other companies seemed to have cheaper deductibles and more reimbursement available for the money.

    2-10 is not organized and I had been led to believe several things that were not true. It seemed like everyone was unclear on what was covered or what cost would be when I had to reach out to them. There is certainly a place for things where it can save you money. However, I think in the long run, if you’re going to stay in a home forever, you may be better off just spending the money getting something done yourself, getting quality work, and that will probably save you more than using 2-10 as a warranty company.

    We had our HVAC system fail and a contractor said that our panel was burnt and it needed to be corrected. What that led to was some wiring underneath the house. That failed to all the outlets in the front of the house that were not working -- they actually have not worked at all since we bought the house. They did a good job with that. That was our third usage of 2-10 since we had the home warranty. So, that one went pretty smoothly.

    But, about our HVAC, it was 100 degrees down here in Middle Georgia at the time and they sent a contractor out and then we waited on them to get back and get it diagnosed, and then it turned out that they could not do it. So, it got transferred to another company and the whole process had to start over again. So we had to wait another week for somebody to come out to diagnose it, to do the same thing as the previous contractor had done. From the time I made the first phone call to 2-10, it took a month to get a new system, and it took three different contractors. The first one could not do it and second one did not want to do it. The third one did not want to do it too, and then the fourth one finally did it.

    It does not seem like they have a lot of contractors who want to deal with them. And, it was frustrating because 2-10 was sending contractors from an hour and 15 minutes away, and you would think they would have some other available people. Also, the first time we used them was right after we bought the house. We had some plumbing issue and it took a little bit of talking with them to get them to cover it. They eventually did. So, overall, our experience with them has been okay because the things got fixed.

    2-10 Home Buyers Warranty was a good recommendation from someone I trust. I'm on my third year with them and they've been easy to work with, so far. It has been really simple to submit a claim to them if it's a normal, everyday kind of claim. I'd just go online, I'd put in the request and they'd give back a confirmation and a work order number and the name of the supplier that would be contacting me. 95% of the time, the contractors that they've sent out have been very good. But once in a while, we'd get someone that just didn't meet the standards that I'm used to receiving.

    With the swimming pool issue, the contractor handled it very well. He stepped in on my behalf, spoke to 2-10 and we worked out a resolution to that issue. He's still in the process of finishing up the work because it's no longer pool season. We didn't pressure him to make the change and to get new piece of equipment in, but he'd start doing the work and it will be completed this week. If it was summer, he would have had it completed weeks ago, but with my personal travels and everything going on here, it wasn't a big priority.

    The personnel that answered the phones and that I dealt with were reasonable and friendly. There'd be times I'd have to wait. If the claim I had put in was not an ordinary claim and they gave me a provider that I didn't wanna use because I have a preferred supplier, then getting on the phone takes more than I would like it to. But when I did get people on the phone, they've been cooperative and very professional.

While submitting my claim to them was fine, my issue came when there was some confusion about the electrician part of it which made for a very frustrating day. I have an electric tankless water heater. The one they sent required three circuit breakers rather than two that were currently installed. So, an electrician had to be sent out to install the extra circuit breaker and run that wire. There was some confusion and they disallowed the electrician at first, to do the work. They tried to send it back to the plumber and the plumber can’t touch the circuit breaker panel. It took a few hours on the phone to get everything straightened out. Luckily, the electrician was able to come back that afternoon and do the work.

For example, I submitted a claim for a microwave oven that had knocked out power to my house because of its age. The electrician was sent quickly, but it took four weeks in total for the process from start to finish. A technician had to come out, assess the problem, and submit it back to 2-10. 2-10 then had to investigate and make sure that this was something that they would do.

    I'm a real estate broker and I sell the policies of 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty. I also have one for my home for more than 10 years now. Initially, I got the warranty because of the sales agent that sold it to me. She was very sweet and very helpful. I felt like if there were any problems in the future, she could help me. So far, I've submitted claims with 2-10 and with the last process I went through, they have gotten better than they were because I was on the verge of canceling them earlier this year. When I had a problem with my AC, it took six months to get resolved. And call after call, the contractor would say they were coming and they would not come. 2-10 did not help me at all where that was concerned and I was furious with them. No service call should have taken that long and there was no reprimand for the company that was doing it.

    Aside from that, there were times that I had to be on hold for an hour and a half. But this time, it wasn’t like that. I was on hold for a while, but not for an hour and a half. So evidently, somebody is working to try to make 2-10 better because it had gotten really bad and I heard that from other people as well. The contractor I used this last time was great, too. He did a really good job. But as far as 2-10's personnel are concerned, some of them were very nice and some of them were as rude as rude could be.

    I have a couple of issues about a year into my 2-10 warranty. The air conditioner went out in my home and I tried several times to call 2-10. And I just got a recording. They were saying that no one was there to answer their phone. I never got a callback. I thought they went out of business until there was another deduction taken out of my account for my premium. And so, I had to buy an air conditioner unit myself even though I had the insurance. And all they did was give me a free service visit the next time I needed service.

    Recently, my furnace kicked off and a guy came out. It was gonna be $800 out of my pocket because they were gonna rebuild the whole thing out of sheet metal instead of just replacing it. But after he left, it kicked back on when he reset it after he came up with all these things that he needed to do, and he submitted it, and I just forgot about it. It took at least a month, and 2-10 called and said that it had been authorized but it’d be $800 out of pocket. But I had called and told them before that the guy that came out had made all these estimates and everything when all he did was just reset it and it’s been working fine since.

    The fan wasn’t working in two of our tenants' rooms. A claim was filed with 2-10 and the whole thing was bad. First, the electrician came out and he diagnosed it. He then said that he would come back, but then he wasn’t following up. I called him and asked when he was coming back out. He said the tenants who live in the house said it was okay. I told him that they obviously were not too concerned. But I paid for this home warranty and it needed to be fixed. He just blew me off and didn't follow up. I had to call 2-10 back and get a new person to come out.

    With 2-10, it's impossible to get ahold of anyone. If you wanna file a claim, you have to wait on hold forever. You then have to go to a claims specialist. Once you file a claim and you wanna call and follow up on the claim, you can’t just call a claims specialist. You have to call the main line, wait on hold, talk to someone who really doesn’t know what’s going on, and they say they would transfer you over to a claims specialist. I already filed the claim, but I have to wait on the line if I want to check on something really quickly. And every time with the new person, it's like they don't see the notes and they don’t know what’s going on. I would have to explain it again. It has been like that with everything.

    I've had 2-10 for three years. When we bought the house, the furnace didn’t work right the very first weekend. I called 2-10 and told them about that problem and how our tenants just moved in. It was a Saturday and 2-10 said they couldn't have anyone out until Monday. I told them that it was 40 degrees and they said it was just a couple of degrees off from their policy. I’m like, “You have to throw me a bone here. It’s not like 70 degrees. And I can’t have my tenants sitting in the cold.” But they apologized and said the soonest they could have someone out was Monday.

    I had to call someone else and pay for the repair out of my pocket. I got frustrated and didn’t use them for a while. But I need to use them because there really are things wrong with the house. It’s just a pain and it’s like they prevent you from wanting to use them, which I guess maybe is the goal. I'd tell others not to get 2-10. We have our primary residence and we had a warranty on it when we first bought it. I would find the name of that company and recommend them. The hassle was nothing with them compared to 2-10.

    I also paid to upgrade to my roof policy for a leak with 2-10. When I called to make a claim, they said they didn't have any contractors in our area. I was gonna have to go find my own contractor. I had to do all of that legwork when I paid for a service. And when the contractor tried to call in to give the diagnosis to 2-10, he had to wait on hold for 45 minutes and he was pissed. The phone systems then went down so it disconnected him. When I finally called back and got ahold of a 2-10 lady, she said, “Well, your contractor, he’s interesting.” I was like she should realize that she should be apologizing to me. It was just a mess.

    The AC motor was still running. However, the system was not cooling anymore. A 2-10 contractor came out, checked the pressure valve and put coolant in. He did a wonderful job and everything went well. After I got it fixed, the weather changed, so I haven't really had to use it. I've been with 2-10 since April, about eight months and so far, my experience has been good.

    The plumber that 2-10 sent didn’t work. They said that they needed to do some re-plumbing and they were charging way more than what 2-10 would cover. They were charging $400 more just to re-pipe the whole thing, but it’s just taking it off and putting it back on. So, I went to go check it out, and the burner itself was super clogged up. I cleaned it out for now, but it’s gotta be swept out. It doesn’t need re-piping. They just need to take it off and put the brand-new one right there and tie it back down.

    When I called for the water heater, 2-10 must’ve called different people and they would say yes, and then they would call me, but they would tell me that they don’t do gas, or they don’t do this or that. But how did these guys get referrals from 2-10? The first contractor that they sent didn’t even bother trying to go. He just said to send him pictures. I asked him to check it out since I'm renting out the house. He had already gone to fix the plumbing, so he knew my tenants. He said that he was calling them because he remembered the address. But my tenants said that they never received a call or a message from him. And then he told me that it was pretty far for him and that to just give him the information. He said he needed to talk to my tenants rather than just talk to me because I was not the one there. I told him that I already talked to my tenants and they’re gonna be there. But he was kinda rude. Other than that, the other guys wanted to overcharge.

    It’s good to have some warranty and I have 2-10 for two homes. When I called to get my refrigerator fixed in my other house because it wasn’t dispensing the ice, the contractor made it make ice but they didn’t make it dispense it. I called 2-10 back and then they said I gotta do another claim. So I just left it like that because I don't have time and then my wife started working so nobody could be home. But other than that, 2-10 has been treating me fairly good.

    In our claim with 2-10, the guy they sent literally just came into the house and said, "Yup, there's a leak." He came to check, took the $100 the day, and then left. He didn't attempt to fix it. I called 2-10 and apparently, he had to go get approval from them to cut into the wall. So, he came back, cut four holes into the wall, figured out where the leak is, and then said, "Well, I gotta call 2-10 because that leak's in the bad spot." Then he leaves again. A week and a half later, he came back and it finally gets fixed. But it ended up being $625, which is $125 over the $500 max. We had to pay him $125 on top of the $100 for him to come out.

    We have also gone back and forth on the line with 2-10. Two days before the guy came to fix the house, we were on the phone with them and they said, "Yeah. Whenever the guy gets done, just call us, let us know. We'll get the holes in the wall fixed. We'll get someone out there." We said, "Okay, sounds great." So when the guy got done doing his plumbing, we called 2-10 and they proceeded to tell us that because it was over the $500 max, then they could not put any money towards fixing the walls. This is after somebody before that had already told us they could. So it was a big, long debacle on that part. Luckily, I know how to do that kind of stuff and my work gave me time to fix it, so I fixed it myself. Then, an assessor came back out today, looked at it, and said everything looks good, good to go, to include the walls. All in all, except for this one, "Hey, we'll fix it. Hey, no we won't," that got us, everything before that has been perfectly fine.

    Our gas water heater was leaking and it stopped working on me. It happened on a Tuesday. That Tuesday morning, I woke up and there was no hot water. I went down and looked at the unit and it was leaking. I submitted the claim to 2-10 right then over the phone. The contractor didn't call me for another two days, and by that time, it was a Thursday, and he said, "We won't be putting it in till after the weekend. The earliest would be Monday." So, I was at work on Friday and I got this message on my phone that he was at my house to put it in. But the door was locked, because I told him he was supposed to get in contact with me the date before he was gonna come out and do it. I guess, the water heater came in and so he went to my house that Friday

    When I called the company, the receptionist told me, "You didn't leave the key out. If you had left the key out..." And I said, "Hold on. He told me it wasn't gonna be done until the earliest Monday and someone was supposed to call me." And then, his van broke down on Monday, the day he was supposed to come to my home to put it in. So, it was another couple of days till they put the water heater in and I was without hot water for over a week. I wasn't real happy about that. But once it finally got put in, everything was fine.

    To make the long story short, I still haven’t received the check that they’re supposed to send me to purchase the new stove even when I told them that I would be fine to just buy it myself as long as I got the check because it’s Thanksgiving, and we need the oven for that. I will not receive it in time for Thanksgiving for sure, so I had to redo everything with my family. We had to make last minute decisions, and so I am not happy with 2-10 at all.

    We've got plumbing issue that has been continually going on for the last three months. At one point, it starts clicking and then the burners fail. I put in a work request to 2-10 and they sent somebody out. The man said it was broken and he couldn't find the parts for it. They don't exist anymore because the system is so old. It took them half a month to do the research on their own and then it took another month to get the parts to another guy to come out and look at it. It was just recently fixed, but this morning, it starts clicking and that's the point where it stops working.

    I have a real problem with it. I talked with the claims guy and I reminded him about the Georgia 30-day law that if they can't fix something within 30 days, then they're obligated to pay for it. They told me no and that that's not the way they're gonna do it. They're gonna send a guy out again to warranty the labor and parts he put in it. But 2-10 sent him those parts. It's a big, silly circle there.

    I've had 2-10 about a year. December will be the end of the warranty. They're usually quick to get on something. But I'd like to see them replace the item instead of me, waiting another two, three months without a stove to use. And we have Thanksgiving coming up, so it's ridiculous. The first guy that came out was real apathetic, lethargic. He looked at it and did some research. I had to call him four times to get him to answer. He'd never answer to me. When I told 2-10 that the guy never came back, and they'd already sent him the parts to fix the thing, I didn't get an answer until 2-10 got a hold of him. The service was just that bad, I've already signed up for a different home warranty company.

    The only frustration that I had with 2-10 was they sent out an AC company that wasn’t equipped to handle the claim. I'm a first-time homeowner and I assumed that if I owned a two-storey complex, they would've known I had a two-storey town home. I asked the HVAC company if they wanna go buy a ladder and the technician flatly responded that they had no interest in buying one. They didn’t own one and that wasn’t a great first impression. The second company that showed up was alright and I didn’t feel uptight with the technician but he was almost too relaxed and then, the repair took a week. It turned out to be a special-order motor but I got the vibe the ball was dropped somewhere. It took Trane, the company, five days to get the part in, which seems like a long time for a massive company like them to get an engine in or a motor.

    I did not realize that HVAC companies existed that didn't have ladders for people that has their HVAC system on a two-story home. But if that's apparently a thing, it might behoove 2-10 to identify which of their customer base has a two-story home and then be sure to communicate that very well to the company. The company was supposed to come on Thursday and when he called to confirm, I asked if 2-10 told them that I have a two-story home because when I called 2-10 to respond to the first cancellation, I told them why this was cancelled and to please make sure that the next company that comes out knows that I've got a two-storey home.

    The guy said there was no mention or no report that there was a two-storey home and that they did own a ladder, but that the one ladder in the entire company was housed in Plano on another project. So, it had to be pushed back another day. He claimed that 2-10 didn't advise them and it ended up being like a whole extra week. Had it not been a special order, it would've been just one additional day. The reps at 2-10 were polite although I don’t know if the guy I asked to make sure the second company knows was helpful in communicating that or if 2-10 contracted the only pot-headed HVAC company in town and they just forgot.

    Overall, I was without AC for close to a week and a half to two weeks, and I thought the whole process would move a lot faster than that. The call was done on a Monday when I reported it to 2-10 and I didn't get somebody that was willing and/or owned a ladder out to my house until Friday. I'm a Dallas, Texas resident and it was hot as hell when my AC broke. I paid the $70 deductible and I saved some money and I would still recommend 2-10, but the whole process was frustrating and disheartening. It puts me a little on guard if something else goes wrong in my house whether it’s gonna be a week, week and a half, or are the people that are gonna be sent out equipped to work with it and/or be able to purchase the supplies to be a company that can handle this type of maintenance issue.

    I’m not always happy with the providers that 2-10 send out. We found a leak in the wall and the wall was all moldy. The leak was where the water heater was and the water heater needed to be replaced. They had a young man come out to fix the leak but he refused to do the job. I was on the phone with the warranty representative at the same time, and she said, “I’ll have somebody else come out and we’ll waive that $100 fee for having somebody else come out.” So then, they had a guy come out and he was here for three hours but he still didn’t fix the problem.

    For three days in a row, somebody came out but the water heater job still is not completed. They didn’t ever finish it and they never came back. The water line is supposed to be three quarter inch water line, but all of the nipples are less than a quarter each amount of water that can go through them, so the water pressure isn’t right. And I spent all kinds of time talking to the guy but it didn’t do any good. We have a brand-new water heater but the water only gets to 110 degrees, which isn’t very hot, and we got barely any water pressure. The guy never finished installing the electrical properly and he never put the drain line on. So, these are things that my husband and I are gonna have to fix ourselves because I now don’t want some idiot in my house that can’t do the job.

    My husband and I both know how to do plumbing because we totally rebuilt the house in Seattle that we sold before we moved to our current home. There were lots of conversations about the codes and the proper materials being used. So, there was plenty of communication throughout. And while I was told that I wasn’t gonna have to pay $100, I still ended up with the fee anyway. I had to pay two separate $100 service fees because two separate places had to come out to fix one problem that should’ve been fixed by one person. Still, with all considered, everything’s been fine with 2-10 so far and we’re considering to renew for the next year.

    I had several systems on the house that I just sold and through the latter stages of my ownership of that house, there were several months that passed where I was having some issues with units not running properly. I made a couple of different service calls with 2-10 and I had people come out. They worked on the condensate pans that had supposedly gone bad and I’ve had refrigerant added to the units. I was repeatedly told that that was it and that that would cover the issues, but the problems persisted.

    Over a period of several visits and months, I ended up having a different contractor come out because the second to the last contractor was non-responsive. When the last group came out, they said I got rust in there and on other units, I got damper motors that had issues. Then, I ended up having to pay for certain things which could've been prevented if those proponents had been analyzed properly. I’ve also paid somebody to fix them the first go-round and I shouldn't have had the residual problems that I ended having to pay for. Aside from that, I was frustrated by being told that the service wasn’t covered and having multiple people who were unable to properly diagnose the problem. I looked at 2-10 to only certify qualified contractors and that was a very big source of frustration. And it cost me several hundred dollars out of my own pocket to get the house to where I could sell it.

    Other than that, in filing claims, 2-10's system seems a little too automated and it doesn’t seem that anybody at 2-10 takes true ownership of making sure that the contractor show up and perform. It seems like it’s rubber stamping it and they just assume that the contractors are gonna do their job, but oftentimes, they don’t. I deal with residential and commercial contractors all the time and you have to stay on them. You have to ride them and know a little bit about what they’re doing to make sure that they’re doing their job.

    But with 2-10, I was paying $1,000 a year for warranty coverage and I was paying $100 on top every time somebody came out there. In retrospect, I shouldn't have paid that fee to 2-10 because the routine maintenance should be covered as well for the $1,000 I was paying a year. There shouldn’t be charges for the spring and fall tune-ups because at the end of the day, I probably paid $1,500 to 2-10 a year after all was said and done, and that can buy me a lot of maintenance. So to me, it wasn’t worth the bang for my buck.

    We have a claim on the dishwasher and 2-10's contractor came on October 14th. On October 15th, I talked to them and they said that the part is ordered. When it's ordered, they will call me and then fix it. Nobody called me for two weeks. So, I called 2-10. I left a message with the contractor's office. Nobody answered the phone. I called 2-10 on the 30th, two weeks from the time the contractor came. The rep said that the contractor just sent the report back, two weeks after they told me they were gonna order the part. The part was not ordered and then 2-10 said they will approve the order then get the part ordered. It's now is the 7th, so it has been a week, and I haven't heard anything yet.

    Once in a while we get a contractor who's responsive. The plumber we had was very good. They called and came. But my dishwasher is still not working and the contractor is really not responsive. We also had AC people, and they were not responsive either. 2-10 needs to stay on top of their contractor and really get things moving. They should have a procedure like when contractor go there, they should have a feedback in 24 hours. And once they give feedback, they can approve or disapprove it. They should tell the contractor they have to keep moving, not just keep it hanging there. I think they have no procedure to control how contractors work with the issue - maybe don't pay them unless they finish the job. If it takes that long to fix one thing, it's crazy.

    We have been paying for the 210 home warranty for 5 yrs. Last Tuesday our heat was blowing cold air so I contacted 210 for a service request. Here is what happened. I was told someone would contact me within 24 hours. (Never happened.) I called back on Wednesday to check on status. (Service rep was extremely rude and still could not offer us a appt time with a contractor.) Finally got a appt set on Thursday for Friday with contractor (appt time was Friday between 8-12). Contractor never called or showed up on Friday.

    After no one showed up I called the contractor and they said 210 had cancelled the appt. (By this time our house temp had been around 52 degrees for the last 3 days.) I called 210, they said they never cancelled the appt and that the contractor was lying to us. At this point I explained that all I wanted was someone to come out and fix our heat, I was told that I would have to wait until Monday before it would be possible for another appt to be set. I explained that I have a family with children and we could not wait till Monday to have the heater issue resolved, 210 could have cared less and said since it wasn't an emergency I would have to wait. Completely unacceptable!

    I asked to speak with a supervisor and was sent over to another claims representative, long story short, got nowhere with them as well. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS TYPE OF COMPANY! DON'T WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY AND TIME! BEWARE: Please read other reviews, we are not the only ones who have been disappointed with this pathetic company and their lousy excuses.

    My air conditioning system stopped blowing cold air all of a sudden. I put in a warranty claim on a Sunday to 2-10 and I called the company that was assigned to us on Monday. They came out that Friday and the technician found the leak, fixed it and refilled my system with Freon. The tech was here for maybe an hour and did a good job. My 2-10 warranty covered everything. Everything's been really good so far with 2-10. The two issues that we've had have been fixed in a timely manner. Good reputable companies have been assigned the work.

    My experience with 2-10 has not been very good. We've had 2-10 since 2009. When I signed up for service this time, their rep didn't tell me specific details when we talked about the HVAC tune-up that I kept asking questions. I've already filed complaints about it. And when it was time for us to have our unit serviced, I called to place a claim for the HVAC tune-up. The rep said it would be $85 deductible for each unit. I said, "You didn't tell me that when we called to have our HVAC system tuned up, that I'm gonna have to pay $85 on each unit, both times of the year. If you have told me that, I would not have signed up for the HVAC tune up." So they waived that.

    So, I had my HVAC guys come out and 2-10 was being very difficult. I wanted to speak with a supervisor and the reps said, "All the supervisors are unavailable." I was getting the runaround. And then I said, "I know that they're available, and I know that I can talk with them, and you're not helping me." So, I finally spoke with the supervisor and they waived the fee for the tune-up.

    And then, when they tuned up our second unit, they found that our unit wasn't even cooling. Our evaporator coil had a hole in it, so it had leaked out all the Freon. They said, "You have your HVAC tune-up. The whole purpose of your tune-up is to be checked, to see if you have a problem before you go into a season." And then, they told me that I had to pay $85 again because there was a problem. They didn't tell me that I had to pay $85 every time I'd have tune-ups and if they find a problem, I'd pay $85 more. That's $180. So, might as well not have the HVAC tune-up and just submit a claim when something's not working, then I'd just have to pay $85 once.

    We submitted the claim on the evaporator coil three weeks ago and 2-10 ordered the part. The contractor got the part today, opened it up and it was the wrong part. The contractor called me because he was trying to get in touch with 2-10 and he wasn't getting anywhere. He waited on hold for an hour and he was frustrated. It has been three weeks and we still have no heat. I called 2-10 and we did a three-way conference call with the contractor. I told 2-10 that they ordered the wrong part and the contractor gave them the right part number. It has to be expedited to another team for that other team to be able to order it. Right now, I still don't know when we're gonna have heat and I'm not paying $85 deductible again. It's just poor customer service with slow turnaround time. They sent me three emails asking me if our service request has been completed, which they should know. Every time, I said no. Their quality team is terrible.

    The electronic display on the fridge was showing an error code, and when you open the fridge up, the light wouldn't come on. We tried to unplug and replug the fridge. We waited till the next morning and realized that this fridge was actually off. It sounded like it was on, but really it wasn't. So, our food was falling out.

    2-10's contractor came out that day, but they didn't have the part. They just verified everything I had read online about what happened. They said they were gonna get the parts in. And now, the fridge has been working great. We have food in it. The experience has been very helpful, efficient and affordable. Overall, it's successful for us. It was a big repair that we didn't necessarily have the money all at once. So, to have 2-10 be able to repair it instead of having to replace it was very helpful. And we're glad we're paying for the warranty for when this happened.

    I'm a real estate agent and I sell 2-10 all the time. When I see 2-10 saying to people that a claim was done, I’m like, “Great.” But whenever I have called them, I have had issues. I had a claim on my furnace last year that did not go well at all. I get my furnace serviced by 2-10 every year but I ended up having to pay for another contractor to come out last year. My furnace was not working at all and I had no heat. It was January when that happened and it was one of the coldest weekends of the year. I filed the claim on a Friday, but the warranty people would not come out until Monday. Suburban Propane was the one who gave me my propane gas so I called them to come out. They took 5 minutes to find out that it was a fuse problem and I had to pay $250. This year, I also did a service call for my furnace just to get it checked out before the winter month. But I don't know how that went ‘cause I haven’t gotten any response from 2-10 with this service call.

    In my latest claim, while the contractor who came out to look at my refrigerator was good, he took stuff apart on it and there was dirt all over my floor. I asked, “Do you have anything to clean that up with?” And they answered, “Well, no.” So, I had to end up cleaning up grease and stuff on my floor. Then, they said, “I’ll have to get back to the warranty people.”

    I didn't have a refrigerator for over a week and a half before they said they were gonna buy me out. The claim went fine but it took more than one time to call to get it taken care of. It finally got to the right person after a couple of tries. The first time I called, they were willing to only give me $100 rebate and my $89 back. I was like, “Well, my fridge is dead.” And I also had been eating out for that week and a half because of it. I then had to go to someone else and get it further evaluated. It was after I finally got someone in management who contacted me that it got taken care of. So, overall, this was a good turnout for the claim process.

    Our seller paid for the first year of our 2-10 home warranty, then we decided to re-up for the second year because it was a good deal. Usually, submitting a claim with them is pretty easy as long as I remember what's broken and I use the website on my phone to do it. The service contractors they sent out have usually been really good, too. Recently, we had a plumbing claim which took longer than expected, but that was okay. We filed it on a Tuesday and the techs came out originally, but they were waiting on a part, so the supply house was a little slow. I had to call and make the arrangement myself to get them to schedule it. But the issue was resolved and they did a great job.

    When we were buying our house, our realtors gave us the option of getting a home warranty and the sellers were planning on paying it for us, so we said okay. We've been with 2-10 since April and submitting a claim is very easy. I went back to the pamphlet we got from the realtors and then followed the steps. I went to the website and then it was easy to find out how to submit a claim and it also walked me through what was going wrong, what appliance was off and stuff. However, I didn't like how I couldn't pick the contractors. They picked it for me, so that was annoying. Still, I enjoyed the process and everything worked out.

    Our claim with the heating system was resolved and everything went well. We called on a Tuesday and the contractor came for the first time on the next day. He thought he had fixed it, but it was not fixed. When we realized it still wasn't working, we called on a Friday but he couldn't come till Monday. Because it was a weekend, we were without heat for about two and a half days. Luckily, the weather wasn't terrible. So the contractor came out again and since then, the heating system worked wonderfully.

    The AC wasn’t coming on and it wasn’t blowing cold air. Initially, 2-10 told us it was gonna be a few days for someone to come out. It took three days for the contractor to come. And then they had to come back, and 2-10 wouldn’t authorize all the parts that needed to be replaced. The tech told them that there were other stuff that has worn out that should be replaced, and 2-10 just did the very minimum. But I didn’t have to pay out-of-pocket.

    2-10 gotta have somebody on the weekend, especially if they're gonna cover things like air conditioning or plumbing. If you get a pipe that burst, I can't have water pouring through my ceiling for three days. If it happens on a Friday, you're screwed because they don’t answer the phone on the weekend. There are companies that do a lot with business than they do that have people that answer the phone on the weekend, like an emergency number. So they need to have someone on the weekend, especially, if you have a little one and you live in a place where it's 112 degrees and the AC goes out on a Friday. I really can't wait three days to get that fixed.

    I bought a house when I was in Louisiana, and it was through my realtor that I knew about 2-10. The claim process with the gas water heater was fine. But, there is an issue with the feedback on the open contractors, and they need to improve on that. I was not satisfied with a few of them prior to this one. Although it is not in 2-10's control who works in that area, it is in their control to make sure they provide the feedback to the contractors to make them work better with the customers at the end. Some of the contractors were really rude when you work with a home warranty to when you work with them directly.

    As this recent claim had a 30-day period where they have parts and labor warranty, I called them saying that the water heater did not look straight and I asked them if someone can come take a look at it. But all the contractor said was, “If it is straight, you’ll have to pay 55 bucks.” So, for some reason, the contractors sometime working with the home warranty companies are not customer-oriented. Probably, they do not care if I will get them back in my house or not. It was the same with the furnace guy who worked on the furnace last year twice. The problem was not resolved. I called them again, they came again, did the same exact thing, took the money away, and did not fix it. So, I did not get my money back because even it was deductible, they should resolve the issue. 2-10 does their job, but someone should also call the customer.

    The heat worked for four days and then it just stopped. It happened on a Friday and we had a whole weekend of cold weather and no heat, except for a little electric heater. I called 2-10's number and requested the service. The first contractor they ordered was Bennett Heating & Air, and they were horrible. They called and I told them we were having to leave to go down upstate for my step son's funeral services and I would call them them back Friday to have them come back out. So, I did and I could never get ahold of anybody. I finally got them on Monday and they let me know since I didn’t schedule right away they were gonna have me wait for about three weeks.

    I called 2-10 back and told them about Bennett. I asked them if they could find a more appropriate contractor, so they changed it and the contractor was really good. I was able to call and get ahold of them, and get them scheduled. They did have to come out three separate times and order three different parts. But the heat stopped again.

    At first, I called the contractor when it stopped the second time, and they told me that they had already closed the ticket out. So I called 2-10 back and I asked them if I would have to pay the service fee again because this was the same issue. That was my concern then because the way I looked at it, if it’s not working and they come out three times, they should be able to assess it and do whatever they need to do to fix it. The contractor haven’t called back to tell me that they ordered any parts, so I don’t know if it’s completely resolved yet or not. Usually, when they come out, they’ll call me. I haven’t heard anything from them this time, but the heat has been working again. So, I’m just not gonna worry about it.

    My claim with 2-10 on my gas water heater went okay. I just was waiting a long time to hear back from 2-10 because they had sent out a request. We live in Pennsylvania and there are not a lot of service contractors were responding and saying that they even do that. They were reaching out to plumbers apparently, and they were getting rejected from the outside people. I was without hot water for like six days and it was cold in my house. I have three little kids, and I was freaking out. By the time someone did come and took a look at it, he had to report his findings to get approved. But when it was all said and done, it was fine. It just seems like a little bit too long of a time in- between the claim and when it really got resolved. It was about six days. And my guy came immediately.

    The person that we hired put the hot water in and it must have bumped a pipe. The next day, when I came home, I smelled gas. And I called the gas company, and they came with their truck and sirens on and told us not to turn switches on and off and exit the house immediately. And they went in the basement and found a gas leak. So, we had to wait outside and he had to find the main valve of the gas and turned it off completely.

    Then we had to have a contractor come back the next day and replace a piece of pipe in. So, we had to pay an additional amount for this person, and that wasn’t covered. The one who fixed the issue was an independent person that I found to help us. 2-10 couldn’t find anybody to help me with my problem, therefore I had to find my own and he had to be licensed and insured. 2-10 could improve the availability of service contractors in my area.

    I've been using 2-10 since 1999 and claims seem to get resolved quicker when I call in than when I do it online. However, some of the reps I spoke with were knowledgeable and some of them were not. With my most recent dishwasher claim, it took three days for the contractor to come out. When he first came out, he thought he had diagnosed the problem correctly, but he never pulled the dishwasher out. When he did, he determined that additional parts would be needed and that took another week to wait for the additional parts to come in.

    Based on how much stuff they needed to replace with that dishwasher, I called 2-10 and just asked for them to buy me out of that and let me purchase a new one because I didn’t want to put the dishwasher back in there. I was afraid that I was gonna have another water issue. It took another week after that to get approval for the replacement. The dishwasher was over $1,000 when I bought it four years ago, but they only gave me half the value of that which caused me to pay the other half for the new dishwasher to put in my house. And I waited a long time for that. I filed the claim in the beginning of October and I’ve only had that dishwasher for two days now.

    I had a leak, a pipe break, from the toilet on the second-floor bathroom. And that leak dripped through the ceiling on the first floor right through the living room. I called 2-10 and a plumber came out but he wasn’t allowed to do anything. He was only allowed to do assessment but not repairs because they always have to get authorization for it. So, he had to come out again and he fixed it. But my claim is not fully resolved because I have a hole in the wall. I need to follow up to see who is gonna fix that. I haven't received any communication from them and that was about two weeks ago, so I have to follow up at this point. I've just had 2-10 eight weeks ago, since the purchase of the house, and I don’t really know how it functions. But what’s a little frustrating is to get a four-hour window to be home and they come out twice. It’s difficult when you work full-time and you have to be home for four hours.

    The heating system was leaking gas and it had molds on it. The gas company came out and condemned it and said that it was unsafe. I submitted a claim to 2-10 and the people they sent out didn’t do their job. 2-10 needed a report from a licensed contractor for heating and air to tell them what was wrong with it so that they would know what they could cover and what they couldn’t but the guy who came out didn’t write a report. He went off of what I told him that I thought was wrong with it and 2-10 told me that they could not use that because they had to have a written report.

    2-10 allowed me to use somebody that I knew to replace the heating and air unit, so that was fine and the guy that I used wrote up what was wrong with the unit when he took it out and they used that.The customer service was okay although it was kinda frustrating trying to get a hold of people but I eventually got through. I called up the lady that I was speaking to and she emailed me what they could cover and I emailed her back. It was about five days before I heard back from anybody.

    My experience with 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty has been a bit frustrating because in the situations where I made claims, both instances, they had a hard time finding a contractor to come service my claim. In the last one with my boiler, we had no heat for about a week. We live in Michigan and it's cold, so being without a boiler for a week is a long time. I had to go reach out and find the contractor to do it because they said there was no one local in their network. I live in a major metropolitan area so that was a little frustrating. But they finally got it resolved since yesterday.

    There was one person at 2-10 named Caitlyn who really stepped up outside of the box. She was a supervisor and after I vented some of my frustrations, she took it upon herself to make sure that she went above and beyond to be a single point of contact to make sure that it got handled. And I did appreciate that, because even the contractors tell me that they don't work with warranty companies because they're on hold. I've been on hold with 2-10 Home Warranty for hours too. So, it was nice to be able to have somebody I can call directly.

    Also, 2-10 Home Warranty replaced a dryer of mine which was nice. However, I have a white washing machine and when they said they were gonna replace the dryer, the lady on the phone from 2-10 said, "We can only send you a black one," which doesn't match the washing machine. I said, "Well, I don't want a black one." She said, "Well, if I have to change it, it would be a lot of paperwork, and we'd have to start the whole process over." I said, "Can you just send me the cash? I'll go buy my own." And they did. That was frustrating to go back and forth.

    Originally said they were gonna replace my washing machine. My washing machine has a touchpad issue and touchpads on these new machines don't last. The mechanic that came out replaced the part and said, "You're gonna run into the same problem in another year because we see these things go all the time when the touch sensors go bad on them." So, it was frustrating that they changed their mind after they said they were gonna replace both. We ended up replacing the other with money. That was frustrating. But overall, I'd recommend a home warranty for anybody. I'm gonna keep it going just because of the costs involved.

    I initially made a claim to 2-10 for my refrigerator, it was good and it was really fast. I got a phone call the next morning and they sent someone out. It was very quick. However, it took five weeks to get a decision on my refrigerator. I put the claim in on October 1st and I didn’t get a resolution until the 30th of October. At first, they sent someone out to fix it, and they did their thing. And the way that it was explained to me was, the company who came out to fix it ordered three of the parts that it needed, and 2-10 had to order the other three parts because the authorized service company couldn’t get those parts. So, 2-10 ordered them and ordered the wrong parts.

    I waited two weeks and never heard anything. I called the service company, and they said that 2-10 ordered the wrong parts. So, I had to call 2-10 and nudge them along to even look at it. Because they already had the information, they just didn’t do anything. Then they ordered the right parts, which took another week to come in. The service company came out on a Monday. The tech put the parts in and it didn’t work, so he immediately stopped at that point, because he said that the warranty company wouldn’t cover it if it didn’t fix it entirely.

    The tech called 2-0 to tell them, and then they called me and I was told that they needed another five to seven days of processing time to research it. So, I had been without a fridge for five weeks, and they didn’t really seem too concerned that I didn’t have a refrigerator. There was no sense of urgency. They just said, “It’s on you to have another refrigerator again.” But if I would’ve purchased a refrigerator, then that wouldn’t have been covered because that wasn’t the appliance that was in the home when I moved in. It only covered existing stuff that’s there.

    The folks that I talked to on the phone for the most part were nice, friendly and kind. They did what they were supposed to do, forthright with information. I didn’t really have a problem until it was four weeks in and then they said it’s gonna be another five to seven days of research. At that point, I got a bit heated and asked for managers. My wife posted something to their social media account, which tends to get people’s attention very quickly. And the local person in Columbus, Ohio called me two days later and was extremely attacking and rude and just blaming the whole thing on me. I was not thrilled with that.

    Our water heater leaked and it flooded the master bedroom closet. I submitted a claim with 2-10 around 8 o'clock at night, and at 5:00 the next morning, I already had information as far as somebody going to the home. The contractor then scheduled an appointment, then they got there and checked it out. The guy tried to repair it but he noticed that didn't stick. He stated that this should be a replacement, and then went ahead and talked to 2-10. He was back in a day or two days to replace the heater. I really like how fast they were able to respond to my request.

    The filter of our pool was broken. I submitted a claim over the phone with 2-10 and the rep I talked to was very helpful. Things also went very well with the contractor that they sent out. He had to replace the filter and the repair was done in one visit. They ordered it and he had it when he came out. The work was excellent, too. All in all, 2-10 did what they said they would do, which is quite novel these days.

    The gas water heater was leaking and when I submitted a claim with 2-10, the process was easy. The contractor who came out also did an awesome job. Prior to that, another contractor, American Appliance, came out for my refrigerator. It is the side by side and has a middle drawer inside the side by side part. There was water under there and the first time that the tech came, he didn't pull out the refrigerator from the wall to see what the issue was. So, whatever he did to correct that, I had to call right back because there was that issue with the water at the bottom of the drawer as well as the icemaker. He told me I had to keep dumping the icemaker but who buys a refrigerator and keep dumping the icemaker? That was a lie and he didn’t fix what the issue was with the water underneath.

    The freezer also started frosting up from whatever he did, so I had to call back again. He said a piece of plastic was in between the freezer when you close it, so it broke when closed. But that’s totally a lie as well because I have an alarm on my refrigerator where if the doors aren't shut or the door to the freezer isn’t shut, it dings. But it never dinged.

    Then, when my mom was in the basement, she said that there was a big puddle of water in the basement. When I checked, it was coming directly from under the refrigerator. I called 2-10 back, sent pictures, and the whole nine yards. I also pulled the refrigerator out the day before he came and there was a hole in the back of the water line. I told 2-10 that he may not have caused it, but he could’ve prevented it because he never pulled the refrigerator out the first time. I also shut the water off and when he came, he said that I needed to replace my hose. So, if there was water in the refrigerator and the thing was freezing up, wouldn’t the water line be the first thing you'd check?

    All in all, American Appliance was horrible. I now have damaged hardwood floors that they will not fix. My floors are separating on the side of the wall where the refrigerator is, underneath where the refrigerator is, coming all the way out to where my island is, going to the other side of the kitchen. And I just had my floors done. I called 2-10 and told them that they were not gonna do anything about it. They wouldn’t even file an insurance claim. I had to go through the insurance commissioner and when they did file the claim, it was denied. So, I asked to speak with the manager of the insurance company. I called multiple times and he has yet to call me back. So now, I’m stuck with $5,000 worth of damaged hardwood floors in my kitchen that nobody wants to pay for. My thing is, 2-10 recommended American Appliance and somebody needs to help me pay for my floors. But I have not heard back from 2-10.

    American Appliance sent someone out here when I called 2-10 and told them to come back to my house, but they didn’t do their job. Aside from that, in all of my invoices, the tech wrote that when he arrived, there was water on the floor. But that was a lie. How did he know if there was water on the floor if he never moved the rug in front of the refrigerator? And if there was water on the floor, why didn’t he check to see where the water came from? I'm not boasting, but I live in a exclusive neighborhood. Why would I send them to my house and just have water sitting on the floor? It makes no sense. That contractor also came in to do my cooktop and that was fixed, but their worker had a horrible attitude. Despite that, all my other experiences with 2-10 had been phenomenal.

    I purchased my 2-10 warranty with my house 25 years ago. But I’ve only had the protection for 23 years because they removed me for two years for some reason that I don’t have any idea of and they couldn’t tell me why either. I love 2-10 and there were certainly times that I’ve been unhappy, but I don’t have any plans on changing it. I have had the supreme coverage and it seems to be that possibly the supreme coverage has changed yet they did not tell me about it ‘cause they had an auto renewal this year, and that’s the first time I’ve done that. I also feel like that they used to say if one of my appliances went out, then they would replace it. But now I feel like, only reading between the lines, if I had to replace it, then they might not do what they used to do even though I still have supreme coverage. Yet there’s nothing I can do about it anyway and they’re only gonna pay so much. My next renewal is gonna be in March but it seems like it’s tomorrow.

    I usually call to submit a claim because I like to request a particular person. I like to request a Chris and the name of his company is Total Home Repair. 2-10 suggested them to fix something of mine in the past and I like them ever since then. So, if there's any chance that I could have him come out, I will because he does such a wonderful job. And he has already been to my house lots of times. My recent claim was for my air conditioner at the back of the house that quit blowing cold air. I have three units and two of them are at my main house while one is in my basement.

    2-10's claims process was fine. I called to file a claim for my refrigerator and scheduled the appointment. My representative, Rachel, was very responsive and kept me up to date. My claim was professionally handled. The first technician came out and he thought he fixed it, but then, it wasn't making ice. So, the next technician came out and made some adjustments, and it works fine now. The first guy was really messy. We had to give him a lot of towels because the floors got really wet. But the second guy really didn't have much to do, and he was professional. They both were here when they said they would be. 2-10 is pricey though. The price needs to come down. Maybe a payment plan instead of a lump sum could make it more affordable to people who are purchasing insurance. Most people just wanna take the chances instead of paying almost $500 a year.

    I submit claims to 2-10 over the phone and I caught a lie one time in the communication. When the boiler broke, we didn't have any hot water and they sent a man around immediately, which was nice. Then, he said they have the boiler in stock and it should be there tomorrow and he would come back. So, he went back to his office and called in the insurance claim, which was what he does on a regular basis. We waited 10 days but we didn't hear anything back. I called back and asked what was going on. 2-10 said that they didn't write a claim. I called the man afterwards and he said that he did a telephone claim, which was all he does with 2-10. So, that was a little bit of a white lie and we had 11 days without hot water.

    It seemed that 2-10 was a top insurance company and they’ve got all the independent contractors working at a fantastic, customer-friendly level. I have the best policy that you can get at 2-10 that costs $4000 extra. So, I was a little bit disappointed that when a boiler broke and the whole parquet floor in the living room came off, 2-10 didn’t cover the damage in the floor. It was only the boiler that was covered. This means I have to go out and buy a new floor and I need a bit of renovation now. So, it wasn’t that much of a great experience. It’s very common that most insurances cover floor damage and when you have the superior package and it doesn’t cover the floor, that’s kinda sad. That costs $4000 extra and that’s kind of a pain. I’ve been with 2-10 for a year and it’s about to run out in two weeks. I have a washing machine right now that’s broken, so I have to call it in quickly before I renew it.

    It took 2-10 two years to get our AC taken care of. They sent eight different companies and we had a total of 24 different technicians come out. The first claim that I called on was for the heat not working in the downstairs. The heat was working in the upstairs, but our electricity bill that month was almost $800 because we turned the heat on and we had to pay that. We finally had to turn the heater off upstairs and buy space heaters. We then called 2-10 and they sent somebody out. After that person came out, the heater wasn't working at all. He swore he had fixed it though. That started the whole ball rolling.

    The tech would come and that person would say he fixed the AC, but whenever it gets either hot or cold, it wouldn't work. We've had to buy floor AC units for the summer and to buy space heaters for the winter so we could get through the winter and summer. Then we would get to the end of a season and the contractor would swear that they fixed it. Then next season would have to start the process all over with either the heater or the air conditioning. And when that next season rolls back around, we would find out that what they supposedly fixed still didn't work. Over the course of the two years, we've had the technicians cause more damage themselves than they fixed anything. It was to the point where they even cut through the ductwork for my heating downstairs. There's a huge gash where they just opened up the intake duct and I have to pay out of pocket to replace that.

    At one point, the downstairs and upstairs units were combined and they swore to me that it was a split system downstairs and upstairs. We went through everything and they ended up saying that they would finally replace it. When they came out to replace it, all they replaced was the upstairs unit saying that I had not made a claim on the downstairs unit. I found out that they had combined the claim to be two separate and one account. We had to start completely over on the downstairs unit. Rather than fight back, we did a cash-in-lieu, even though it should have been replaced two years ago. I had to pay out of pocket to replace the downstairs unit because it got to the point where it was just an ongoing circular thing.

When I made a claim for my heater, it took almost seven days for a contractor to come out. It then took three days for the repair to be completed.

    Also, the professionalism and communication could be better. Unless you call and try to find out, nobody advises you. Some of the contractors are also not so customer-friendly.

    When I purchased the new home six months ago, I chose 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty based on cost. Their claims submission process was a little slow at first. We had to escalate because they said that their claims processing was backed up. They were trying to make a determination on my refrigerator, whether they were gonna repair or replace, and the parts were not available for my refrigerator anymore. And so, it had to go to a different department to see what type of offer was gonna be made.

    The people on the phone I interacted with were very good especially once we reached someone who was gonna end up processing the claim. She was excellent. It was our main kitchen refrigerator, so we were afraid we were gonna end up waiting a long time, which for this type of failure, it wasn’t really practical for us to let it happen. The contractors who came out and diagnosed the ref were good. I got a quick call from them the day after saying that the parts weren't available for this model anymore. They said they were gonna look for parts somewhere else, but that took too long, three or four days at least, and I had to proactively take things from there. Once everything was settled, the claim was processed quickly. It just took a while to get there.

    My water heater was not producing hot water. The plumber that AHS sent out said there was no way to repair what was in there. So, we had to replace the whole unit. 2-10's claims process was far from easy because I had to upgrade the policy. The policy itself, even though it has been paid for, 2-10 hasn’t processed it in their system. So, I had to jump through hoops just to get them to recognize that the policy was in effect. And that was after I paid $100 to get it upgraded, and then another $100 to get the service tech, and then another $145 to pay for the water heater.

    Their customer service took forever to get somebody. Between the multiple calls, it was about two and a half hours to resolve that one issue. The contractor that was sent out was great. He was quick and to the point. We were sent a text message and we were able to track the text down to the minute. He was personable and helpful because he helped my wife resolve the different issues that wasn’t covered, apparently. We actually called for two issues but only one of them was covered. So, he didn’t do it for us, but he talked my wife through how to deal with it ourselves.

    I've only been with 2-10 for a month and a half and that was the first claim right out of the gate. I wouldn’t call 2-10 a warranty. It’s more like an insurance plan. If they call themselves 2-10 insurance plan or home insurance, it’d be a little different. Because I went into it believing that, at least what we were led to believe that, we call them and they solve the issue. But we have to pay $100 to get somebody to come and get it fixed. It's more of a deductible on an insurance premium rather than a warranty.

    I've had 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty for a year now. Our Realtor chose it as she was looking out for our best interest. I usually call to submit a claim. The reps I've spoken with have always been extremely unhelpful. They made the process so difficult that you actually want to just handle it on your own. Just with everything, there is always one more step that they want you to do. It's almost like they're trying to talk you out of using your warranty. A perfect example was when our dishwasher broke and the technician came to fix it. The motor was blown. He suggested that we get a new dishwasher because he did not wanna replace the motor. He said that the motor had developed black mold in it because it was sitting too long before being repaired. Meaning, there was a two-week span before they got somebody out here.

    2-10 refused his recommendation and then, called me and my husband and told us that we needed to physically take the motor out ourselves and clean the black mold off of it. First of all, if I knew how to replace the motor in the dishwasher, I would've never called them in the first place. So, the fact that they actually recommended one of their customers handle black mold on their own is amazing. And it'd be different if it was inside the dishwasher and they said, "Could you all just wipe this off?" I would've gotten my gloves and simply wiped it off. That was over a month ago and to this day, we still do not have a dishwasher. It was absolutely insane.

    2-10 wanted to do a buy-out and they did. They sent us what they said it was gonna cost to fix it, which was $176. They said that was what the technician was gonna charge with the motor and the repair. I've called three other technicians in this town. They said it’s gonna cost a bit more money which is why the technician recommended we get a new dishwasher. So, I have not been able to get it repaired for the amount that they paid. And I had to give the technician $100 service fee. So, not only is my dishwasher still broken, I had to pay for nothing to happen.

    I had worked in the real estate business so I have told three dozen real estate agents to never, ever use 2-10. It's amazing what one bad experience can do to somebody. The company is very unprofessional. I'm in sales and I've been in customer service most of my life. They have a serious issue with customer service, and I literally told them that several times. And then they get so surprised when their customers get irate or get angry or get upset and it's because of the way that they talk to people. It's amazing to me that my husband is literally the nicest, most chill dude you will ever meet in your life and they had him cussing on the phone. I have never, ever heard my husband get loud or get upset with anybody in the eight years we've been together.

    To narrow it down, it was very stressful experience. It's something I will never forget. It was a huge ordeal. And to compare it when my daughter had an accident on an ATV that we have, when we called State Farm, our agent just immediately said, "Oh my god. Is everybody okay? I'll handle this for you." We literately didn't have to do anything because that's what we pay the insurance for every single month. He handled the entire thing for us and never once did they try to talk us out of something or tell us they weren't gonna cover us. They just took care of it. In contrast, every single time you file a claim with 2-10, they'd either say, we can't do this, we're not gonna do this, you have to do this. I will never, ever go through it again.

    There was something wrong with my Freon split. The first contractor brought one part and put it but he burned it up so he needed to get another part of the same one, plus something else. He went and came back in 30 minutes, but it is not repaired. I didn’t know what he did but he messed it up again. Then he left. He’s not good. A week later, I had to call about what happened. Another contractor was sent and he found what was the problem then he fixed it. He was perfect and the AC is now repaired. 2-10 home warranty is top of the line. I've had it since 2011 and I like it, so it’s good.

    Our dishwasher wasn't working. Someone came and fixed it eventually. However, it took a few days. It took a couple of technicians or companies who actually came out to do the fix. Submitting claims is okay because it's somewhat automated. However, 2-10's selection system of vendors is not efficient. They'll select a vendor that is about an hour and a half away from where I live. It's not cost-effective for that vendor to drive all the way for an hour and a half to service my home for 85 bucks.

    I wouldn't propose someone to get a warranty through 2-10 right now as their service stands. What I recommend is try to have more personalized service. Try to think about the logistics of servicing customers. Don't select service providers that are so far out of the area where the customer lives that it's not feasible for the customer and for the service provider to interact and conduct business.

    Submitting claims to 2-10 has gone smoothly. The contractors I've had have been pretty good except for one time when I had a garbage disposal that was malfunctioning. The contractor came but he didn't really do much but put soap in the sink. After he did that, he said that it was working already. So far, having this warranty has been very valuable. It's a security blanket for me. 2-10's warranty is pretty good but then it's not as easy to get an appointment. 2-10 contacts me and puts me in contact with local companies that will help get my job done. It's a smooth transaction. I know what I'm getting. They tell me what I'm covered for so I'm not confused.

    When I was buying a house, the sellers bought 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty for me and I've been protected for one year now. Submitting the claim to them was not very hard. However, here in central PA where I live, there is almost nobody that works with 2-10 because they say 2-10 doesn’t pay enough. So, I have to go out of network to get the work done and pay out of pocket for anything above what 2-10 would pay. So, it’s just not worth it to have a home warranty if I can’t use it. I’ve had no problems with the people I hire because I only hire good people to come around. It’s just that I have to do the work that I pay 2-10 for. Overall, it has been a lackluster experience.

    The trash compactor went out and the contractor found out that it wasn’t the problem but the electrical outlet. The claim is still going on and they’re coming out tomorrow to fix that. The experience has been great and it’s better than I expected. When I had to replace the heater core in my hot tub heater, it was gonna cost me 600 out of my pocket. I asked how much it would cost to get a brand new one instead of repairing an old one and it was gonna cost me 1,600, so I went that route. They gave me a buyout of $1,000 maximum, so it worked out great.

    I would have paid $500 out of my pocket just for the heater core, and then there could have been other things that went wrong with it so I didn't want to take the chance. We put a brand new one in and it's working perfectly. The reps at 2-10 did a great job although I got charged twice for the co-pay. I paid $60 when the contractor came out and when I was sent the check for 1,000, 2-10 took 60 out of it. I asked them and we went around in circles for a half an hour about it. So, I finally told them to just send me a check.
