    We did a claim with 2-10 for our AC and they sent out very nice contractors. They were helpful and friendly. We were happy. But I was wondering if they were going to come back. I thought they might do that and check if the problem was resolved or not. I was a little surprised because they put in an extra return vent at my expense to help expedite the cooling down, but it didn’t do quite what I had anticipated. I have no knowledge of whether the AC's doing it efficiently or taking too long at times. But it eventually does cool everything down. Overall, 2-10 has been excellent and my experience has been good.

    Our water heater made horrible noises and there was a lack of hot water that really ticked us off. It's a 50-gallon tank. It just wasn’t doing it and it took a long time to even get it to heat up. I submitted the online claim with 2-10 on Saturday and the emails were already rolling and by Monday, I had a call. It was awesome. The contractor made the appointment right away. Then the technician came out and looked at it. He said that there was definitely a problem there and he had to replace the whole water heater. It was 12 years old and we didn't know that. They had to come back and install it. We had to wait but it wasn't to a point where we were frustrated or anything like that. The new water heater is awesome. It's working better and there's no noise. I’m so glad it’s fixed.

    Submitting a service request with 2-10 is easy except sometimes they don't research where you live because the last issue I had, they were gonna put it over to somebody in Columbus. And I just called them up and I said, “No. I’m gonna use the plumbers that you usually send out here,” and they did change it. The plumbers they sent out were great.

    I've filed two claims with 2-10. One of them was taken care of almost immediately. Our refrigerator had stopped working. The tech said the compressor was damaged, and it was beyond repair. It would cost more to get a new compressor than it would be to get a refrigerator. So he recommended to replace the refrigerator. It took him about 20 minutes, so it was fine. 2-10 replaced it. I took the cash and got another refrigerator. But I’m still working on the other claim. Our tub is slow draining and backed up. But 2-10 couldn’t find a person in their system to do what I needed to have done. So, they told us to find a plumber, but we couldn’t find a plumber that could get out and wasn’t extremely expensive. We just found one that’s gonna come on Friday. So I'll just pay the guy, and then submit the papers to 2-10, and then they would reimburse me.

    2-10's claim process was easy. I submitted a claim for the compressor of my Freon split system but then, I hate their contractor, Webb's Heating and Air. When we first moved in last year, Webb's had to put a compressor in. This was the same exact issue. Also, they are about an hour away from our house and there are way closer ones. We only live like 10 minutes from a big city and their rep is really rude when they call. When they first come out, we knew what the problem was. The tech said he fixed it but he didn't. That was on a Friday. We called back and their rep said that they couldn't get back to my place until Monday. But, they didn’t call until Monday. So, we still went without air conditioning for that whole weekend.

    On Monday, their rep called and said that they would not give me an appointment until two days later. When the tech came back out, he found out that what we told him was wrong was the issue. So, he had to order a part, which took three more weeks. I don’t wanna deal with them. When they finally got everything fixed I called 2-10 and told them not to ever send those people to my house again. When I told 2-10 I didn't want them to have to deal with this small contractor out of LaGrange, and to call someone in Columbus instead, because I'm sending my claim from Columbus and there are probably 150 contractors compared to the 2 in LaGrange, the rep told me that I would have to pay my $100 deductible again. So, we just stayed with Webb's. Still, 2-10 has been really quick at trying to resolve my issue.

    2-10 is great. I have had no problems since the nine years we've been with them, but some of the workers they get are horrible. I had a little roof problem, so I needed it repaired and a contractor came out. First, I paid him the $60 and he looked at the roof. He said he's gonna get in touch with 2-10 then he called me back and said he lives too far away. I looked up his address he gave in the beginning and told him he only lives 15 minutes away. I think he just wanted to get on it so he can collect 60 bucks and make the contract. After that, 2-10 Home Buyers gave me what I needed and took care of me well.

    We bought a new home in January and it's an old one. My daughter-in-law had 2-10 and we took it out too for our home ‘cause we would never know. My wife submitted a claim for the gas water heater since the tank evidently started leaking on it and it was leaking all over everything. So, the contractor came out, put a new one in, and changed everything out. It was done in an hour and we were really satisfied. Having 2-10 is a good deal.

    I sent the claim for the washer in September and while I'm not completely without it, they've had the wrong part ordered at least four times. Luckily, I can rig the washer sometimes and it will work. I have to close it up, plug it in and out every time, just making it work. Yesterday, I waited all day for the service people to come, and someone called me at 5 o'clock to say that they decided they're gonna replace my washer. But I've yet to hear from 2-10 so I'm still waiting for an answer.

    The contractors have always been great except for this first time that it's one thing after another. I've always had a good experience in the past and we've had 2-10 for eight years now. Customer service has always been nice as well. Each time, they're like, "I'm gonna talk to my supervisor and expedite this," but then another week would go by, and I won't hear anything. They were perfectly pleasant, but they weren't getting the job done. So, they should respond in a timely manner. If they know something wrong, they should call or email me and I shouldn't have to be the one calling them to find out what's going on.

The tech who came was very knowledgeable, and he had no problems doing whatever he had to do. He came out two separate times 'cause he tried to see what was wrong with it, and after that, we found out that we had to get a new one. He put that on for us too. The replacement has been doing great thus far.

    It's very easy to submit a claim to 2-10. I make a phone call and it's done. I’ve always had really prompt service with 2-10. I’ve never had any issues when I’ve needed to use my warranty. They've sent pretty good people. There was a contractor that we had used for the AC, but 2-10 was no longer using them. So, they sent another contractor, and that one was not so good. I let 2-10 know how I was treated because I didn’t figure they would approve of the contractor being the way he was with their customers. They were very quick to get another contractor to me, and then we got things taken care of. But other than that one time, it’s been good. It’s always an inconvenience when something isn’t working, but 2-10 makes it as painless as they can to get things fixed. I’m very satisfied.

    I'm a property manager and have taken over properties, which have had 2-10 for multiple years. I have to go through hoops in order to use the warranty for all these properties. Sometimes, 2-10 is good but we've had bad experiences with the vendors not calling on time. We had a hot water heater claim and not having hot water is a big deal. It's an emergency and it needs to be taken care of. But it took two weeks for the home warranty company and for the vendor to reach out. The contractor didn't reach out before until after we called and canceled him to do the service. It took three weeks to get the part and when I called the warranty company, they couldn't get ahold of him. His number was disconnected on any number that they had. But everything is good now.

    We also had to use them before to replace the water heater in other properties and the communication with the contractor really sucked. It's not necessarily 2-10's fault, but it reflects on them. It takes a long time to go through them to get stuff done and the contractor gets to it when he gets to it, which doesn't make sense. When a furnace went out midwinter, I contacted them. They assigned a vendor that can't get out there for a few days. That was ridiculous. The follow-up from the home warranty company needs to be better. Also, I instruct them to go through the tenants. I give them the tenant information but the vendor still calls me.

    But they have gotten better with the vendors reaching out quicker and when I use them for inside stuff. Then when filing for a request, I prefer to call them because the automated machine and trying to figure out everything takes way too long. I always go for the operator and we direct each of the operators to make it a lot easier.

    The first rep that I talked to at 2-10 said that I didn't follow the protocol and I didn't use an authorized contractor to do a repair. She said there was nothing she could do and that it wasn’t gonna be covered under warranty. I kept explaining to her over and over again that it was an emergency. There was water pouring out of the ceiling. I couldn't wait 24 hours for them to call somebody and have them come out. I needed it fixed immediately to prevent further damage to my home.

    I requested to talk to somebody who actually knew what I was talking about and I got a very helpful guy. I explained to him what the problem was, and what the damage was, and he said that he was going to talk to his supervisor and recommend that I be awarded the maximum warranty claim for this type of claim. And he said that the maximum amount was $500. But it cost me about $1500 to have it fixed. A couple of weeks later, I got a check in the mail for $400. I emailed the representative back and he said maybe there was a $100 deductible. He didn't know, and didn't mention anything about a deductible to me, and I just dropped it at that point. It wasn’t worth $100 of my life.

    I've had coverage with 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty since the purchase of the house, approximately two months. I’ve had two claims with them. The first was for plumbing. I had to have a recall on that because they attempted a repair instead of a replacement. On the follow-up, they replaced the problem I had with the plumbing, and everything’s fine now. The second claim was for an appliance problem. They gave me the option of just buying new and giving me a rebate on the claim, which worked out. The technicians were fine. I’ve had very good experiences thus far.

    Phone-wise, the 2-10 reps were pleasant and seemed to know what they were doing. They were pretty prompt on returning phone calls. There were two claims and the claims process was a little redundant. We had an air conditioning unit that had a pipe that, apparently, had come apart and leaked and damaged the ceiling downstairs. That didn’t have anything to do with the AC repair. But at the same time, when I put in a call for the AC repair because the unit had quit working, then I had to call them back and get them to do another order number for them to look at something else on the same machine. That sounded like it was a little crazy, but they took care of it. The other had to do with the garbage disposal. They coulda put in a smaller unit, but I didn’t want them to do that. I wanted to replace the three-quarter unit with a three-quarter, not a three-quarter with a half. So, we just had to wait another week for them to get that unit.

    It seemed like their grasp of the issues was not as good as it could’ve been. You can’t fault them for not having the right-sized garbage disposal on hand, even though you would think that they would have more than just a half horsepower on the truck when they were out servicing. They should know what they're gonna get, if it’s a half or a three-quarter or a full horsepower, so you’re not dragged at another extra week waiting on that part to come in, and then, another day or two for them to actually get back and do the change out.

    When I bought the house, the lady said she would throw in a one-year warranty on all the appliances and the pipes. I'm not gonna turn down something for free when I spent all that money on the house and I’ve been with 2-10 for about a year and a half. I call in my claims over the phone and I have one pending now. The original plumber that came out said the leak was underneath the cement and they don't tear up cement. He contacted 2-10 and then they contacted another plumber who came out, found the leak and fixed it for me. Everything has been fine as far as that goes but it appears my toilets are still leaking a little bit.

    I called in and the rep said it was covered and the plumbing who came out here first should be in contact with me. It has been about a week but I still haven’t heard from them. So, I'm not too happy about that. 2-10 has helped me out twice so far but the second time, the guy said it has a cap on and I don't remember seeing that in any type of contract that I got. They never really sent me one and that’s another bad thing because they said it was renewed.

    We had just purchased a home, and a friend of mine recommended 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty. We purchased their coverage and submitting claims has been very time-consuming. I call them on the phone and it normally takes a couple of days then I get different contractors. Sometimes, I get three or four different ones 'till one gets approved and wants to come out.

    Once I have filed a claim and the contractor has come out and something needs to be done, that's where all the issues come from. I can't get a hold of people. There is back-and-forth and my claim was not being filed in a timely manner. Still, every contractor I've had, their service has been pretty good. They know what they they’re talking about and they’re very interactive with me or my husband. They tell me what they’re doing, what they need to do or what needs to happen and send that back to 2-10.

    2-10 came recommended as a home warranty company by a co-worker. I like them, I don’t like them. They’re average for a home warranty repair company. They try to repair something than replace it. Things that I think should be covered aren’t always covered. It takes multiple calls, sometimes, to get something fixed. It’s like a band-aid fix, and then when you do call back, there’s a second or third charge at times.

    When you speak to somebody, they’re professional and pleasant. It’s just that the companies they’re aligned with, are not the best. We haven’t been really happy with the repair. They do respond and the service is good. You call and they’ll schedule it. It’s easy. They’re not doing the work. They have negotiated agreements with electricians or pool service or plumbers. Everybody’s trying to make a buck, so the guy that comes out is trying to get it done for as cheap as he can, then charges what the fee is. We don’t feel that they’ve ever gone above and beyond. They do what the basic minimum is to get the job done and out of here. And sometimes, the basic minimum doesn’t last.

    When we contact 2-10 after somebody has not done the job that we were hoping that they would’ve done, they’ll send the same person out. We have two policies with them. On one policy, we called for a air conditioner repair. They’ll go out to repair it, it’ll work for 45 days, and by the time I call back, they’re like, “Your 60 days pass when you put the initial claim in, so it’s a new claim.” Even though it’s technically not a new claim, the band-aid fix that they put together didn’t really fix the problem permanently.

    Sometimes, there’s a lag in the response from the subcontractor if you're anywhere near the weekend. They just claim they didn't get the work order until three days later. I had already hired another contractor by that time to come in and fix the air conditioning because it was in the middle of summer and I couldn’t wait for a response. I tried to call them and I left messages, no response. They're supposed to respond within 24 hours. This was a Thursday, and by Friday afternoon at 3 o’ clock, I hadn't heard from them. And so, I hired another contractor.

    The drain was plugged in the air conditioner and it kept shutting it off, so it was just a matter of cleaning out the drain. The local company charged me $223 to come out that day to clean out the drain and get the air conditioner back working. The contractor that was supposed to call didn't call me back until Tuesday of the next week. By that time, I had already had the thing fixed. I submitted the claim minus the $100, which I would have had at any house for reimbursement, and I haven’t heard anything back on that. I’ve contacted in writing because every time I got to call there, there’s no answer. You can’t get anybody on the phone. It’s almost like they're no longer in business.

    My experience with 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty has been terrible. One of the bathrooms was completely clogged up and had a leak. I had to have the water shut off in my house because there was no shutoff valve on the shower. I called 2-10 and they sent a plumber out who supposedly fixed the leak, but when the guy left, it was still leaking. I called and he came back and supposedly fixed it again, but when he left, it was still leaking. I called, but he never came back, never returned my call, and he delayed for three days. I kept trying to be patient, but he never responded to any of my calls, voicemails, and texts.

    Then, I called 2-10 and they dispatched another contractor who never showed up. I called 2-10 again and they sent out the third contractor. The third contractor came out to my house, took a look at everything, and said he was going to the hardware store to get a part, but we never heard from him again. I paid the first contractor $486 out of my own pocket because I needed pipe modifications and 2-10 told me they would not cover it. I would like for them to give me the $500 for the services that were never done so that I can then have the issue resolved on my end.

    My AC wasn't keeping up this summer and I called 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty. They said that they had found a contractor that was gonna reach out to me. After a week, I hadn't heard from the contractor, so I called 2-10. They said that they were getting me on there and they were doing the scheduling. They would get in the schedule and call me in the next day or so. Now, the week goes by and I hadn't heard anything. So I reached back out to 2-10 and they said that I could go ahead and find a local contractor and then send them the paperwork. I'd pay for the contractor to do the work and the would reimburse me.

    The process started out where I couldn't find anybody. People wouldn't even talk to me when I said I had a home warranty, not even if I was paying them. They weren't getting paid by the home warranty. But I eventually found a company. They came out and looked at the AC. A cooling stuff would have to be replaced with the AC unit, and they also looked at my heater. They said that there were three major cracks in your heat exchanger and they shut our gas off because it was a hazard. I also asked them for a quote to replace the furnace to see if it would be covered by my warranty.

    2-10 said they wouldn't replace the furnace because it was only the heat exchanger that was broken. They would only replace the thing. So, the company ended up having to go back and get another quote to find a heat exchanger. They were able to find one, but I couldn't get them to call me back. After a few weeks, it was starting to get cold and I called 2-10 back and asked them to find a contractor. I'm on the road a lot, my wife is at home alone with no heat. They found somebody who came out and submitted a quote. Then I got a phone call and they said that everything was approved and it would cost me $100 out of pocket. I told them to go for it and get this thing done.

    The contractor was getting pushed back. I was in contact with him a few times and he said he had some girl that he talked to who had a bad attitude and was trying to nickel-and-dime things. At one point, he said that they were trying to cut him out of $500, so I told him that I would give him the $500 difference 'cause I needed heat in my house. Then, I got a phone call from 2-10 saying that was approved to fine an out-of-network contractor on my own and I could just send them the quote. I already had a contractor, so I told 2-10 that they would need to work with him and figure this out.

    Long story short, the repair ended up all getting done but the process took a little over three months. We live in Central Ohio and we ended up buying some space heaters because it was getting down in the 40s at night and we had to heat the house somehow. I didn't think it was ever gonna get done and it almost came to me just biting the bullet, spending the $5,000 or $7,000 and doing them myself. If I had kids in the home, I'd had been livid. I also tried calling multiple times and I was on the phone over 30 to 45 minutes and there were multiple times where I had to just hang up. I can't stay on the phone all day waiting for somebody to answer or bounce me to multiple different departments. I will never go with them again.

    I've had 2-10 for just a year. I also had one other claim with them when my sump pump went bad. I always thought the deductible was supposed to be the $100, but it ended up costing me $175. I could have gone out and bought a sump pump and installed it myself for cheaper and got better equipment. But I made the mistake of calling them instead of doing it myself.

    Our refrigerator stopped working and to 2-10 sent out an appliance company. That company had to wait a week while they order parts. They returned to “supposedly fix” the refrigerator. it was not. We contacted 2-10 and they said that the appliance company will be back in a few days. The appliance company came back and said they need to order parts again and would be back in a week. After a week we have not heard from them. We contacted 2-10 again and they said let them get in touch with the company again. Call back the next day. Instead of taking seriously the fact that we have not had a refrigerator for almost a month now and sending someone else to remedy the problem 2-10 is not taking our hardship seriously.

    2-10 is better than average and I have been with them since September. The representatives are good but they can only do so much and so, I try to be patient and just in exercising my claims. If I were in administration though, I would replace some of the contractors that they are dealing with on the local level because some of them lack the expertise and the professionalism that they should have.

    The actual plumber who came out for the water heater did a very good job but I was not pleased with the office people because I had to call several times to find out the disposition of my claim, if indeed everything had been approved and if I was on the schedule. They did not respond as quickly as I would have liked them. I was told they needed to order it and yet, after it was ordered, it took a while for me to get on the schedule with the contractor. It took almost a week. I had a leaking hot water heater but they told me that was not an emergency, and I beg to differ with that. But once the contractor for the water heater came out, the old water heater was uninstalled and taken out, and the new water heater was put in. I’m satisfied that it has been resolved.

    My heating system was setting off my carbon monoxide detectors, and 2-10 got somebody out there to look at it. The technician put his carbon monoxide detector on it and said there was a crack in the heat exchanger. He highly recommended replacing the whole furnace because it was 36 years old, but 2-10 still tried to replace the heat exchanger. I wasn’t the most pleased with how it was handled. So, I took a buyout and just replaced it myself. Also, when I had a water line break, I tried to make a claim and was told they would have the whole thing replaced. But when the people came out, they said I wasn't covered. So, I don’t really have the best experiences with 2-10. You should do a little bit more investigating before you settle on a home warranty.

    I've had 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty for 11 years now. I got it as part of the home purchase, and I just maintained it. We’ve got a couple of really major things going, and the service from them has been great. The contractors always haven’t been great, but the service for the warranty has always been well. The biggest issue we had was with our air conditioning a few years ago. The contractors came out. And in my opinion, they were trying to do just a patch work rather than actually fixing what was going wrong. So, we had to have three or four different visits before, finally, the last person they dispatched said, “You need a whole new unit.” We got the unit replaced. So, it might be that they just don’t want to do the job. 2-10 was great during that time as they kept dispatching somebody different until we finally got someone who fits the job. But we ended up paying the co-pay a couple of times, because every time they come out, there’s a $75 copay.

    I have filed claims online a couple of times, but I get better response when I do it over the phone. Because when you get to speak to somebody, it seems to move quicker that way. I just had a situation with them that I wasn’t happy with. I had an appliance that had broken and we had a contractor come out. I paid the $75 copay, and then found out that the cost of repair would be their maximum. They offered just to cut me a check for a flat amount to purchase a new appliance, which was what I ended up doing. I wish that I would’ve been made aware that that was a possibility before I had a contractor come out, because it ended up costing me $75 out of my pocket, plus another $1,500 for a new refrigerator. It would’ve been nice if they would've just said, “Just as a reminder, you got a $400 limit. These repairs tend to go over that. Just so you’re aware, this is how we’ll handle it.” But that was not stressed upfront.

They didn't have the part and they thought this was a new request. They ended up re-scheduling a couple of days later for when they would have the part for him to come back out and fix it. So, we weren't happy with that part. We knew it would be at least a week because we had an issue earlier this summer with our air conditioning and it took about three weeks for us to get a part.

Then, the other day, my friend who also have 2-10 was furious with whoever they sent out for her dishwasher. She said she offered the guy a bottle of water and he took it, then he said that there's nothing wrong with the dishwasher except, “You have to run hot water before you turn your dishwasher on all the time.” And I’ve never heard of that.

    When I started with 2-10, it was really good and they were sending out wonderful people at first. But then it started getting worse.

Two days later we called them back and said, “Hey, it’s still not working.” So, he came out, checked the Freon and a couple of things, made an adjustment and left. He didn’t even talk to us.

As it turned out if he would've just checked the whole unit on day one he would've found that there was a wire from the heating unit touching the wires from the cooling unit. And both the heater and air conditioner were running at the same time. So, all of the expense that he and 2-10 went through was just a waste of time. The air conditioner is still not fixed.

    In July, we had an issue related to the indoor water dispenser not working and the freezer not remaining cold. Different pieces and parts have been replaced to attempt to resolve the issue and in each instance, the refrigerator seemed to work while the repair person was in the home. Then they'd check the box and leave. But by the time they'd get to the entrance of my neighborhood, it would not be working. And for the most recent repair, for some reason, the error code on the refrigerator suggests that the fan blower motor for the freezer unit should be replaced. That's the diagnostic code that shows up on the display of the refrigerator but that piece, to my knowledge, has not been replaced. And that code has now returned after the recent repair on the motherboard where the computer system, essentially, of the refrigerator was replaced.

    The two different companies that have attempted to repair my refrigerator have not been successful and in the most recent repair, it’s reasonable to believe that between the fan blower versus the computer motherboard, the motherboard has a significantly higher repair cost that that vendor had billed back to the warranty company. Other than the computer component, the thermostat had been replaced as well as the icemaker. But the part that the code continues to tell us is the issue has not been replaced. And if it has, they've not assured me that it has or confirmed that it has.

    Then, separate from the inability to complete the repair, the two different companies that have been dispatched for this issue exude very little confidence in the consumer. The techs that came out rolled up in the driveway in a personal vehicle, not in a marked vehicle, and had no logos on their shirts or a decal from the company. They had nothing that legitimized who they were and were not like the FedEx guy who comes in a huge white truck and has a uniform on, or the UPS guy who is wearing a brown uniform and driving a brown truck. With these two, you have comfort that they're who they say they are. And they aren’t coming in my home, they're just dropping something on my front porch. But these folks are coming in.

    And on one occasion, I was not able to get home, so they came in with just my wife and children there, which was not very comforting when they were not really identifiable by uniform or by vehicle. Fortunately, no funny business has happened. But just the optics of it as well as their inability to perform the task to completion don't really give a lot of confidence in the company. And 2-10 is the company because they're the ones that are dispatching and vetting, to some extent, these companies that come into their clients’ homes.

    Other than that, the timing that it takes to dispatch someone is part of the reason this dragged on since July. The last phone call we had with 2-10 was on Monday evening where we explained that the refrigerator still wasn't working and we requested a callback from the department that would explain what the options are going forward.

    It was clear that I don't have confidence in either of these two companies coming back, so I asked if I could go outside and pick my own company locally and have them repair it, then be reimbursed the expense. It was explained that that was an option but with little detail because the agent was not able to speak for that department. There was something about a buyout or a buyback where they’ll help purchase an entirely new refrigerator and I wanted more information on that option before we took the next step and made a decision of finding a local contractor of my choosing or figuring out how much 2-10 would contribute towards the purchase of a new refrigerator.

    It’s now Wednesday at 11:40 eastern time and I’ve not heard anything back from them. In this time, after each time they claimed to fix it, we began using the freezer because it was assured to us that everything was working. And we have now lost an entire freezer of meat, chicken, red meat, steak, and other frozen breakfast items that we kept in the freezer. So we’re out not only the months of the system not functioning and the frustration that goes along with that, but we now lost groceries as well. And that’s not a good place for anybody to be, certainly not when you are told that the system was functioning as it should, when clearly, it was not.

    Despite this issue, however, we had positive experiences with 2-10 in year one. Our home is eight years old now and we pay $700 annually for the agreement. Aside from that $700, I have now paid $100 twice in three months and still have a not fully-operable refrigerator. I could have already gotten close to buying a new refrigerator had I not even had the warranty. I’m already in this for $900 bucks, but if they only say they'd give me 900 bucks towards a new refrigerator, and to replace it with a comparable unit is not for $900, the value of the service really doesn't improve at all because the replacement cost is more than the investment to take out of my pocket. And I’m fearful that that’s what that conversation is gonna be like where they’ll offer something towards not a replacement value or a comparable new unit. But as a track record with this thing, and it not being fixed, one would hope that they'll choose to do the right thing.

The dishwasher wasn’t putting water out, the soap dispenser didn’t work, and the rollers on the top thing didn’t work. The warranty called and said that everything was covered on the dishwasher, but when the technician came out, he told me it was $367 because the soap dispenser and the rollers weren’t covered. I called the warranty company and they said that it was not covered and that they didn’t know why somebody told me it was.

    We didn’t pay for the two issues to be fixed. The tech told me to throw the soap in the bottom, but it leaves a residue all the time and the dishwasher doesn’t clean as well. The things that were wrong with it added up to more than what the value of the dishwasher was. If we had have known that all this stuff was wrong with the dishwasher, we would have taken the first $100 towards buying something new.

So, a lot of the coverage that I was looking for was not there when I went to use it because I didn’t have the superior policy, which is only $10 a month more. For example, with the new HVAC system that they put in, if it had been on the superior system, it would have been fully covered. But because it was on the standard plan, I had to chip in $450, which I didn’t have available. So, it was a real mess. I’m thinking about changing companies.

    The AC unit inside was making a rattling sound and I didn't want to keep it on running. Either air condition on heat, whatever I run was making a rattling sound. So, I stopped it, I called 2-10, and for them to just send somebody to come and look at it was six days apart. They came and I knew they were gonna look at it and not gonna fix it. Obviously, they may not have a part. But to come back again, it's going to be another six days. So, it's a two-week waiting period for anything to get fixed. Right now, it's very, very cold and we don't have heat in the house. I'm kinda really disappointed.

    Also, when they send out the people and all, they need to have better communication when they come out and give us enough lead time. And if there is a certain time, they need to try to come in that slot. They usually don’t and that makes it a little hard, too. Sometimes, I understand. There might be a problem. But that's my only issue with 2-10 and other than that, it's going okay.

    The heater was doing some weird things and it was a little odd that the company that 2-10 sent out couldn't diagnose the problem entirely the first time. The motherboard on our heater was replaced and then it stopped working again, so I called 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty. The guy’s coming back today to install a flame sensor and he thinks that that’s gonna take care of it. But overall, the experience is fine, so long as it gets fixed. This company is family-owned and is obviously smaller. But they're nice and professional people. They're taking care of it until it’s done, and they're getting back to us promptly.

    There was also a little bit of a gap. The company came out promptly on their initial visit and then they needed to give 2-10 some feedback and 2-10 needed to get some additional information from them. There might have been a little bit of a delay in 2-10 getting the information from the contractor to get the circuit board replacement approved. I felt like there was about a four to five day period where somebody wasn’t talking to somebody and I had to start calling to make sure that the two folks were talking to each other. That was a little annoying but once I made sure that the two were talking to each other, it was fine.

    We also had an issue with our air conditioning in the summer, we called 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty and they said that they would send somebody out but it was gonna take three weeks. My wife called 2-10 and told them that it was not gonna work and we needed somebody sooner. So, 2-10 actually dispatched a company that was out like within a day or so, but we had to call up and ask for somebody more promptly.

    My computer crashed so file claims over the phone. A claim that I just had for the furnace, American Heating & Air Conditioning, went awesome. The other one, Jack's Plumbing, I didn't care for him. He was very arrogant and very everything. And then, I had an emergency plumbing problem and Stilwell Plumbing & Drain never showed up so I had to get it fixed myself. And then, they still haven't come for the other problems that I have in the bathroom with the faucet and the tub.

    The reps were very nice and they were supposed to be helpful, but they kept telling me that they were gonna email me the information and they never did that. I never got an email from them, and I had to keep calling back. I don't have time to keep doing that. And then one lady was telling me, "Well, we don't have anybody else in the area to come to your house. You're gonna have to go with somebody else and pay out-of-pocket." "I don't think so. I paid for a home warranty out of my money for a year. So, I'm not paying out of my pocket when I have a home warranty. Can you get me somebody else?" They'd tell you somebody is supposed to come to your house and never show up, never call you.

    And then, you would have another one who's gonna tell you, "If you would have called me right out, your water heater would have cost $1,500." "Don't talk to me about that. That’s not my problem, okay. I have home warranty. I have what I'm supposed to pay you and that's all that need to be said right here and done." When you call them, they're supposed to give you an email and all this other stuff that you never get, and then when they come in, you gotta pay them $89. Then they have to have it approved by 2-10 Warranty, they hear back from them for them to come back again. That's ridiculous. Nobody explained that to me. My Realtor didn't explain that to me.

    If stuff need to be fixed, it needs to be fixed. I gotta call 2-10 every other day to get the stuff fixed. I gotta go to work too. At the time I was going through that, my mother was very ill of cancer. She just passed away on the 29th of October and I haven't got time for all this stuff. I paid for a warranty, and I wish I got out of it and went with somebody else. But I know I can't. I would never go with them again.

    I've had 2-10 for almost two and a half years, and I've always had a good experience with them. I've never had a problem. They've always been pretty prompt and I have not had any reason to renew with them. I prefer doing my claims over the phone. Their reps have been great. When they had to replace the floor motor on our furnace, the overall process was pretty quick. It was within seven days. The contractor came out to diagnose it then he had to let 2-10 know what it was, see if it was gonna be approved then he called us and said it was. He came out a second time as soon as it was in. The work was great. The furnace is fixed and he said it's in good shape. It must've been going out because I don't have to have the thermostat as high now.

    With a home warranty, it's a lot easier to come up with 100 bucks than 1,000. I just save enough money. Even with what I paid in the premium and a few times that technicians have come out, what they replaced or fixed would've still cost me more than what I did for the premium for the whole year. I think it's worth. I tell everybody that I know that they need to keep a warranty. 2-10 has sent out people twice for my air conditioner and twice for my furnace.

    When we purchased our home, the mortgage company and the lien holder set us up with 2-10. We've been really happy with it and continued with it. When I find a problem, it’s at home so I usually call to submit the claim. It’s easier. Once, I had a problem with the customer service rep. They didn’t have the correct information. But they worked with me really well and when they sent the contractor out, they waived the $60 fee. We have a pool sweeper called a Polaris and one afternoon, it wasn’t running when I got home. It was humming though. It had frozen up so I put a claim on it. The contractor came out and then took a few days to order the part. When it came in, the tech came back and fixed the pool sweeper.

    We were also having problems with the dryer. When we turn it on, the lights in the whole house dim. Also, sometimes the dryer would not completely dry the clothes. I didn't know if it was the plug making the light short like that and causing the dryer not to work halfway or if it was something with the dryer. At first, AHS put a call in for an appliance situation. They said that if it wasn’t the appliance, it was electrical. Then they called an electrician out without the service fee because we did the dryer and found that it wasn’t that. The tech thought it was electrical.

    About a week later, the electrical guy came out. He spent probably three hours trying to figure out what the problem was but he still couldn’t locate it. The electrician pulled the panel off and said everything was on tight, but we’re still having problems with the lights flickering when we turn it all on. He suggested calling Oncor, the electrical company, to have them come out and do a power check from the meter to the house. We did, but they said it could be 15 to 30 days. We should have an answer by Monday the 11th and if they show that the power from the box outside the house is good, then we have a recall to the electrical company to check our breaker box one more time. Other than that, we’ve had really good results with 2-10.

    The display tab in our gas oven dimmed down to the point where I couldn't see the numbers so I filed a report and 2-10 sent someone out to fix it. The repairmen fixed the actual display portion of it, but in the process, the valves for the knobs were not lining up appropriately on the left side of the range itself. The valves were twisting at an angle and were catching on the side. The repair company ordered new valves and they came out yesterday to fix it again. The knobs were working a little bit better but it was freestanding. When they left, they said that we're gonna have to talk to our warranty company 'cause they don't think they're gonna be able to fix it.

    Thirty minutes after they left, I noticed that there was gas coming out of the valve so I left it alone after messing with it back and forth to get the gas out. I went upstairs and came back down but it still smelled like there was gas. I tried to turn the knob on and off a few times to see if that helped but it didn't. Then it started making a noise like it was leaking so I turned off the gas and called the repair company.

    I'm not very impressed with the contractors 2-10 sends out and although the process of filing a claim is easy, getting anything done and fixed has been painful. I had a claim with the same range a year and a half ago when there was a gas leak. It was a similar process where it took a month to get it fixed 'cause they got to find parts. I also used 2-10 for my AC service to come out and get other stuff rolling but it kept being hot in my house and they didn't do anything about it.

The oven has a difficult time finding the temperature that’s set, and it constantly just reheats and beeps constantly. Then, the refrigerator makes a consistent knocking noise when one dispenses water. The claim process has gone smoothly, but one thing I have a real complaint about is that the contractor came and made fixes to both of them, and it felt like it improved for a little bit, but they're pretty much the exact same now. So, they're not fixed and I’ve gone in and I’ve resubmitted the same claim. We’re working with the company but they're on a vacation break right now. I’ve chosen not to go with someone else ‘cause I figured they’ve already seen both the appliances, so they probably know more than a brand-new person showing up. So, the service is still open for both appliances right now.

    On July 19th, 20th, we closed on our house and we got linked with 2-10 when we bought this house. We call them when we have a claim and it's usually fairly easy to get things started. 2-10 answers and they take down the information. The problem has been when we're supposed to get connected with the contractors to come out. We had a pretty rough experience with our refrigerator and dishwasher claims. The dishwasher was the easiest to handle but it was because we had such a bad experience with the refrigerator issue. Based on the agencies that 2-10 is contracted with, we waited seven weeks for somebody to finally come out and look at the refrigerator. I have two kids that are under three and one of which I'm nursing and pumping for. I didn't have anywhere to put breastmilk that I needed to store and ended up having to utilize a neighbor. We got to a point where we finally had to go out and purchase a fridge.

    One of the companies 2-10 sent out was AirFAST Heating & Cooling. They were very nice and they polite when they came in. But I don't think they were actually looking at the problem. They were just trying to find the fastest solution to get it all taken care of. The tech spent maybe 20 minutes the first time looking at the refrigerator and he said it needed to be replaced. The second guy from a different company did the same thing. A group associated with Sears came out seven weeks later. They took two hours to take everything apart and look at all of the different issues that came up with a consensus on the diagnosis aspect.

    2-10 also tried to say we had voided the warranty because we had the old fridge that wasn't working out and it was just a lot of chaos. The dishwasher broke within that timeframe. I had spoken with Katelyn from customer escalations and she kinda took that and handled it as quickly as possible. We just submitted the receipts and everything that we were asked for. Katelyn helped me out a lot. She, unfortunately, had to deal with me when I was pretty frustrated and frazzled. But she was great and professional. She ended up getting us the best deals she could. I appreciate her. She was part of the saving grace of the situation. We just submitted a couple more claims for a water heater and propane tank system. I haven't heard anything about the newest claim that we put in.

    My experience with 2-10 has not been too terrible, though it's concerning sometimes. With the water heater, I had to go out and find a company to do it. They didn't have a plumbing or water heater tech already available. There are so many companies in my area, yet they don't have them. With the company that I used, I know they had worked with 2-10 before, and they had mentioned that they were trying to get on as one of 2-10's preferred contractors. They showed up first thing and didn't take them any time to replace the heater, and everything went super smooth with it. I had to come out of pocket for the full thing initially, but I did get the refund check afterwards. I've also been having issues with my AC, and after the first time online, you have to call in for the follow-up if you've submitted a claim for that system once already that year. Otherwise, everything has been pretty straightforward. I've recommended at least a bunch of the people that I worked with.

    Updated on 11/14/2019: My air conditioner crashed after moving into my newly purchased home in August. I live in Tucson, AZ so our summers are pretty hot. It was around 105 degrees when the AC unit blew, I was TDY to Fort Huachuca, and I had a pregnant wife in the house. 2-10 sent their contractor who determined that it was a pre existing issue and quoted us a price for repair twice what is common in our area. They quoted around $9,000 and we wound up paying $4,300 for a brand new unit. I say this because we had to pay. 2-10 HBW dragged out the process with a pregnant woman as long as they could to avoid covering the cost of the air conditioner.

    I disputed the claim as we had a previous inspection report stating the air conditioner was in fine working order. It took 2-10 HBW two months to review a one paragraph statement from out inspection report. They never contacted us back despite the emails I sent. In fact, they only contacted my wife after I posted several negative reviews. Then they claimed we were not costumers in publicly visible review sites while pretending to examine our claim. It is my impression that they pretended to evaluate our claim because the day after Veterans Day they sent my wife an email stating they read the report, but could not contact the inspector, or the contractor we previously utilized to inspect the AC unit. Essentially, they denied our claim without even investigating its validity.

    The insult to injury was sending a veteran of four combat tours, pending a disability claim, this information the day after Veterans Day. I would say it was coincidence, but 2-10 HBW contacted me through Facebook so it is likely they knew. I doubt they would admit to doing this on purpose. They tried to scam us into paying twice the market value for a midrange AC unit. They called their contractor to confirm the information they already had and disregarded what we submitted entirely.

    Original review: I was TDY with a pregnant wife stewing in a house without AC in Tucson, AZ during the summer. When we purchased the house we had the air conditioner inspected. The report noted it was in good working order. It broke within a few weeks of us moving in. The warranty company sent a contractor to inspect who gave us a report contradicting the previous report and stating the condition was a preexisting issue. The contractor then offered to fix our unit for twice the price we wound up paying out of pocket for to get it fixed. They have not responded to any of my emails requesting a re-evaluation for refund. They called my wife once a month after I sent my last email. Basically, they tried to pressure cook my wife into paying one of their contractors an exorbitant amount of money to fix the air conditioner while I was half a state away for work.

    We’ve been told that it's good to have a warranty when you buy a new house. We wanted the sellers to pay for it, so 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty was part of the closing. Submitting the claim with them was fine, but having a recall done is not. I still haven’t gotten the follow-up done for the half-bath toilet. The toilet just wouldn’t flush very well before, but now you’d have to try it three times before it finally flushed. They replaced some stuff on it and it would just run incessantly. It’ll run for a long time then you jiggle the handle and it’ll quit, but it’ll start up again five minutes later for no reason. So, I just turned the water off on it.

    We had the plumber come out and give a diagnosis on the bathtub faucet. It was loose and leaking around it. They said that something had been cut in there and that it was a previous repair. But it was not 'cause I asked the person that owned this house before and she said that it was the one that the builder had installed and it just got loose and started leaking. I had another plumber come out, but it was not on the same ticket. I was told that if I requested another plumber to come out through 2-10, I would have to pay another $100. The plumber I had come out said that the seal inside connecting the spout with the pipe was not there.

    A warranty company would want a second opinion if they were asked to send another plumber out, but 2-10 just went ahead and denied the claim on our bathtub. I really want to get things fixed. We did get the buyout on the kitchen faucet and we went ahead and replaced that ourselves. But I wasn't really impressed with the plumber. They didn't know what they were talking about and they made things worse.

She said then, "Okay then, we're not gonna do it." And then that kind of didn't go anywhere.

    And then this guy came in and diagnosed the problem. He understood what was going on and said, "I need to order three different parts. They are expensive parts, so I'm gonna turn this back to 2-10, and I basically need to know if I'm buying the parts or they're gonna buy it and send them over to me. Because sometimes they get them cheaper." So, that again took like 10 days or something like that. And then he got the parts. And then I was traveling, so I couldn't call him over for a few days after that, but then he finally came in. He fixed everything and knock on wood, it's working okay now. But the whole process was over a month. I was without an oven for six weeks.

    My only comment would be to kind of just take this feedback and do it so it gets routed to the right person. And then when it comes to the vendors, I don't know if it's just setting the right expectations, if it's training them, but that lady was outright rude, who said that she needed the payment upfront. The only other thing I have is their wait times are ridiculously long. So, every time somebody doesn't show up, I'm trying to follow up and I have to call 2-10. It takes like 40 minutes before I can actually talk to someone.

    My recent claim experience worked out great. Long Company did it for $89, which is the regular deductible. I scheduled one time, got them out there on time, they tried to fix it but they couldn't, and they replaced it with the like kind. The claim was for a ceiling fan-light fixture combination. It had a multi switch on the wall. When you turn the light on, it would come on and go off. When you click to turn the fan on, you could hear that beep that it makes, but it didn't start. So, we tried reversing it, and the reverse didn't work. So, we tried the lights, and everything else worked on it in terms of power on and off, and so it worked. They had to replace it because the switch there was bad.

    Submitting the claim through 2-10's website was fairly straightforward. We were then given an estimation when the contractor would come. However, I found that their estimation has always been inaccurate. It can take several days to get a contractor out. Their contractors tend to provide fairly standard service. For this particular event, the contractor's interaction was typically fairly straightforward and moderate. However, we were dissatisfied, not with the contractor's quality of work, but with how they carried it out.

    Our faucet was leaking to the point of causing green mold and the contractor put in the new faucet without clearing with us. They claimed that they talked to 2-10 then they demanded that we pay for the faucet. We ended up having to talk to 2-10 on our own and eventually, identified that the contractor had not talked with the 2-10 office. As a service, 2-10 does do what it claims to do, but the quality of the contractors they send can be very varied. Sometimes, the contractors can be straightforward and sometimes, they may not be.

    Our house is a little bit of an older one so we went ahead and got a warranty. Overall, it's been worth the $500 a year because there have been things that we have been meaning to get fixed that probably outweighed that $500. However, it does seem like 2-10 sends some sketchy people. When you call in and make the claim, you don't get to choose whoever you want to come and service your stuff. They also seem like they're willing to do anything and everything humanly possible not to replace something. Where somebody might think an air conditioner is 100 years old and should probably be replaced, they're going to do whatever to keep it limping along. So in another a month or two, you have to call them again.

    Then when our dishwasher died, a guy came and ordered the part. The part came but we decided against having the guy come back to our house. He didn't really do anything. He was just creepy. My husband got a bad feeling from him and we weren't comfortable with the guy coming back in our house. So we ended up not fixing the dishwasher. We just got a new appliance on our own. I figured nobody at 2-10 really cared, because they're sending who they're sending, and they have to know who they're sending.

    I’m not very happy with the claim that I’ve had with 2-10 since September. We came back from a trip on the 6th of September and found our refrigerator was not working. Everything inside was spoiled. So, I made a service request on the 7th, which was a Saturday, and 2-10 sent somebody out on Monday, the 9th. The technician troubleshot it and said that he looked at everything he could and I got a wiring problem inside the cabinet, which was not fixable, so we needed a second opinion. He called 2-10 and they sent somebody out the next day, which was the 10th, and the guy said I needed a part. On the 17th of September, somebody called and said they couldn’t find the part, it was no longer being manufactured, and there was no action.

    I went out of town for a little while on a short trip and I made some phone calls when I got back and I asked if anybody was gonna fix my refrigerator. I was five weeks by then without a refrigerator. I was told by the repair folks that they've closed out the work request at the direction of 2-10. I called 2-10 on October 11th and they said there was a misunderstanding. They said they told the contractor on the 17th of September to get the part and the part was on order. For some reason, it got dropped and they would place it on order. I said okay and I called back Friday and I said that I asked for the status of the part order when it was done, and that I didn't receive anything. On Monday, the 14th, I called and said that nobody has told me the status and I asked what was going on.

    Finally, on Friday of last week, I called and said that nobody has given me the information I asked for. The parts people said that the part was not on order and they placed it on order on that day. In the meantime, I was five and a half weeks without a refrigerator and I asked if they could expedite it. They said they would try, which was not a very comforting response. I called again Friday and I got a hold of somebody who wanted to try and help me. Apparently there were two parts, one part got shipped and was received on Friday by the repair folks, and the other part had been shipped and was due to be received on Monday.

    Reliable Appliance, the repair folks, prioritized me to be first in line this morning. The part was received yesterday afternoon, it came this morning and we placed the part. Six and a half weeks later, it finally looks like the refrigerator might be working, although we won't know for another 24 hours or so, if it does. Nobody seemed interested in servicing the loyal customer and I got conflicting reports. My confidence level has ebbed considerably on how well 2-10 is gonna support us.

    The claim with the water heater was okay but I wasn’t happy with the $400 that I had to pay to bring the water heater up to code. The only thing that I saw different was that they put a collection tray beneath the water heater. I should have been told what was not up to code and the contractor should have been able to enunciate what the deficiencies were and their plan to correct them rather than making a blanket statement. That might be okay for those who are not engineer-minded but for someone who has a decent understanding of those kinds of things, no explanation is not optimum and I'd like to have that changed. The water heater has been replaced and it has been working fine since then. I was very satisfied with the quick response and that they took care of the issue. But I was dissatisfied with the lack of information flow as to what was wrong and what was done to correct it for $400.

    The claim for my water heater went brilliantly. It was done easily and inexpensively, but it took a little longer than I wanted it to so I was out of hot water for two weeks. The plumbers had to get approval from 2-10 to make sure that the water heater was covered. Then once that was cleared, it was a few days on the part. I was concerned about disposal and clean up afterwards, but I didn’t need to worry about a thing. They took care of it all and I was thrilled about it. They were very friendly, quick and professional. I would highly recommend 2-10.

    I walked into my closet to find the carpet was soaking wet when just hours earlier it was dry. I knew I have a leak somewhere and needed to get it stopped and fixed to avoid additional water damage to my home. I immediately contacted a well known local licensed plumbing company and they had a plumber at my home in an hour and the problem diagnosed and fixed in two. The bill was several hundred dollars.

    A day later, I contacted 2-10 to notify them of the problem and ask them to reimburse me for the cost minus the standard call fee. They denied any claim stating I needed to call them first and have their contractor come out, assess the problem, gain their permission to fix it, then come back out and fix it. In my experience with other claims, that has taken days, time I did not have with water damaging my home.

    Their website and Service Agreement say that they "can expedite emergency claims and ATTEMPT to initiate service within 24 hours." Again, with an active water leak, that is not a viable option. I will be cancelling my contract with them as I do not see the value or purpose of having it if they will not honor what they agree to do.

    I’ve been with 2-10 for eight months and part of my experience has been trying to figure out how the process works. The refrigerator claim was a little more uncertain because it was the first claim that I filed. The stovetop was a little more contingent because I had had the refrigerator experience. But now, I’m trying to work through the process and it’s almost like it’s all over again. This claim has been open over a month and we’ll manage and we’ll get through being without a stovetop for over a month but I’d like to move this on. The stovetop that we have cannot be fixed. The parts are not available from the manufacturer so now, we’re looking at alternatives. We’re gonna get something new and it’s just a matter of what, when, who’s gonna pay and how much they’re gonna pay.

    I called yesterday and 2-10 was experiencing high call volume. I got transferred four different times trying to get to the appliance replacement team. I kept getting bounced back to the root level of the call tree and the problem was, I kept getting a new individual and I kept having to go through all the same steps just to get transferred. I finally just said to the fourth person I talked with to check the notes because that was where they were going and they were just gonna try to transfer me there. So, that's a frustration, because that's my time, and my time is worth something.

    Overall, my experience has been good. They have been somewhat responsive but having this experience, I would advice anybody who’s looking at buying a home warranty to be sure they understand the limitations of the policy. Don’t go into the policy thinking that they would replace it with what you have. That’s not how the policy is written. It’s just a matter of being aware of what you’re buying. Once you have that in place and you have an understanding of what that limitation is, 2-10 is a fine company to work with. It was just the expectation going into it that I’ve had to adjust.

The companies that 2-10 sent out for our fridge and the AC unit were both very good. The AC unit is fine now but the fridge is not performing. The contractor said that we had to let 2-10 know that they exhausted all possible options to fix the fridge. I’m not happy about that because I don’t wanna go through another replacement.

    When our dishwasher broke, a contractor recommended getting it replaced. Our dishwasher was all stainless steel, but 2-10 was gonna send us a white one. I didn't want a white one. The difference between the stainless steel and the white was $100 and I told 2-10 that I was willing to pay for it. But they just cut me a check for $400 and I had to cough out double that to get a dishwasher. They were also gonna get me a size that didn't fit, so it would've cost me work to cut the countertops. That's why I'm very upset that the contractor couldn't fix our fridge because I will have to go through the same experience again. They will send me a white fridge and then I'll have to pay $2,000 for a new fridge.

Then, I had to pay $100 for them to come out. And so far, 2-10 hasn’t made me want to continue with their insurance. It didn't leave a good taste in my mouth.

    We had so many claims put in for our dishwasher because we couldn't get people to come out and service it. Those that did come out, came out one time and we never saw or heard from them ever again. The guy came out, looked at it and said that he was gonna order the parts. Almost a week and a half had gone by and we couldn't get in contact with them. 2-10 was able to reach him one time, where he told 2-10 to have us call him, which made no sense because we have been calling him. He scheduled an appointment but he never showed up. 2-10 called him abut six times, even sent him an email. He answered and when they mentioned my name, he hung up the phone, and they could not get in contact with him again. We were dealing with it for the longest time.

    We had done three deductibles on it but 2-10 ended up giving me the deductible back. We paid out of pocket to have the motherboard done and 2-10 reimbursed me some of the money. We were supposed to get over $300 and I only got back 200 from out of it. But that was an out of network ones. I ended up taking a buyout on the dishwasher, but the check was nowhere near what it will cost to buy it. I spent $700 on a warranty for me to keep getting these contractors but it just ended up costing me so much more money because I was losing more money from taking off work.

    That experience was really, really bad. I've had 2-10 for a while, but that one really surprised me. Every single contractor that they had was really bad. The experience that I've had with 2-10 has been, for the most part, good except for when it came to that dishwasher. This stems back from June all the way through. Some of the contractors that they keep sending out to us, and this is across the board regardless of the appliance, they keep giving us one-man band contractors and a lot of them don't seem that professional. They just seem like they're just regular neighborhood guys that come in and fix something real quick. Also, the price has been going up. When I originally got 2-10 with my first home, I paid $500. I just renewed it in August and it was almost $700. It has gone up drastically and I haven't seen any increase in the service or increase in the quality of it.

We placed a call to 2-10 and the claims process was straightforward and simple. The contractor came out within a couple of days, looked at it right away and confirmed that it was leaking and we needed a new one. It was so old that a lot of the piping was out of code and they needed a reservoir tank and a pan installed.

    I was given a tally and I would have to pay $350 out-of-pocket to fix all the stuff that was out of code. It sucked to find out I would have to pay that much out-of-pocket, but I get the whole thing. We took the cash out option because my brother-in-law’s a plumber and we ended up paying exactly what they cashed us out for, for the parts, and then I gave him 100 bucks for the install, but he told me that people are charged $1,500 for a job like this.

It was 90 something degrees every day, and I had to go out and buy air conditioners just to cool the house down.

There was some loophole in the system where the air conditioner counted as being totaled so we could only get the payout, which was a lot less than replacing the air conditioner. We didn't have a choice because there was no repair for this type of air conditioner.

    Once I made the decision that it was gonna be totaled, things happened quickly. Going back and forth and speaking with them, happened quickly as well. Not everybody who answered the phone was great, but some were knowledgeable, knew what they were doing, and could explain things well.

The door still will not stay closed. The contractor replaced a door hinge which came apart. The contractor also replaced the compressor. A different contractor had previously replaced the evaporator coil and thermostat. Fridge should be running like new. 2-10 customer service people developed an attitude and basically blamed me for not taking their advice to hire my own contractor or taking the buy out. I JUST WANT MY REFRIGERATOR TO WORK!!!

    I purchased my first home on 10/15/2019. First night fridge stopped working and defrosted and flooded kitchen. I did not know the power cord was spliced. It sparked and tried to catch fire. My garbage disposal also stopped working but would still turn on. I called the next day, 10/16/2019, to make claims. The people I talked to were at least nice for the most part. They immediately dispatched contractors. Someone came out for fridge on 10/17. He said that he has to follow protocol and suggest replacing power cord but will recommend replacing whole fridge due to age and doesn’t know what got fried.

    I had to pay $100 service fee. I also watched him finish claim and submit to 2-10. I heard nothing from the company. Another contractor came out today, 10/21, for garbage disposal. Again had to pay another $100 service fee. After the contractor left he too immediately sent in the recommendation notes. I was told by contractor before he left that I have a 1 hp motor and a metal piece was bent keeping it from working. I called to get update on fridge claim. Was on hold for like 10 minutes after getting through about 3 minutes of prompts. When I finally got a hold of someone they told me that they see the notes and recommendation from fridge contractor. They then forward me to another rep to find out what’s going on.

    The different rep then told me that there are no notes and the contractor did not send anything in. I mentioned that the first rep just told me she saw the notes and recommendations. Then he said, "Oh well I’ll call and leave voicemail" and get back to me. Then I get email stating that garbage disposal claim was denied due to being a pre existing issue like others here have stated.

    The contractor called me back to tell what was going on. He told me they denied it not because of pre existing issue but because I made claims so close to the policy purchase. He stated that they tried to say they will just replace the disposal with a .5 hp motor and the contractor told them no it’s a 1 hp. Then they said, "Well we just going to replace it with smaller cheaper one." Then the contractor told them, "No you replace like for like." Then I get notified that my fridge claim was denied as well. So when I called and asked why I got forwarded again.

    This time the lady told me my garbage disposal was denied because of the wires being spliced. I said, "What? You have the two confused." Then babbled and said, "Oh your fridge was spliced and that is why it was denied" and that my disposal was denied because it was obvious it didn’t work beforehand. I told my fridge worked and then stopped working. And I even have home inspection stating that it worked before purchase. She then tried to tell me, "Oh, well they don’t check the fridge" and she just bought a home and they didn’t check the power cord either. I didn’t care what she did. I have a 3 year old with no fridge to get food and take care of. So I then asked, "Well would I get my money back for the service fees since I got nothing out of the deal." She then put me on hold for the 4th time, came back and said, "Well I can refund $50 for the service fee since you asked for that." I asked for a refund not $50 back.

    I said "$50 total or for each claim." She then put me on hold again and said, "Yes I can refund $50 for each claim." I then asked if I cancel the warranty would I be refunded the price paid for warranty. She then stated that she doesn’t know and I got forwarded again before I could ask how will I be getting my refund. I asked the next rep and they said I would be pro rated. I am disgusted with this company. What’s the point of having them if they will not fix anything? I’d be better off using the money to buy another fridge and disposal. Stay away from this company. I am cancelling them tomorrow.

    I called 2-10 and they messed up the claim initially. They put me down as having a heater malfunction and they initially told me that I wasn’t covered for the hot water tank. And then, the lady was reading the list of things I was covered for, and she mentioned water heating. She said hot water tank, and I said that was what was broken. She was like, “Oh, yeah. I guess you are covered,”. After that, it all went fine and my wife said that the guy who came was nice. I would recommend one to have 2-10, especially if you’re buying a new house.

    The oven wasn’t heating. It was hanging around the pre-heat and it would never get higher than that. I submitted a claim with 2-10 and they called the same day. The contractor came right out. They were timely. It was a good experience and they repaired the oven. However, the contractor had to come back twice. I had given them an explanation, although I'm not an expert, about what was wrong with it. He ordered the part, came back, put the part on and then it still was not working because there are two fans and both fans had gone bad, and he didn’t recognize that. He only replaced one fan. So, he had to come back again.

    Also one of the things I thought was really strange was that the contracting company called me back probably a month later. I've received an email that said that they were scheduling an order to replace my microwave. I called them from out-of-town and said, “I didn’t place an order to replace my microwave.” The lady tried to argue with me about that a little bit and I said, “You guys repaired my oven. That’s how I'm familiar with your business, but I've never requested a replacement for my microwave.” So, then they finally said, “Okay, we'll cancel it.” But she didn’t apologize.

    And then, three day later I was back in town, and I got another call that said they were coming out the next day to replace my microwave. I called her back and said, “I told you three days ago I didn’t have a need for a microwave.” And she said, “Well, we have an order to replace your microwave and it came…” I said, “My microwave works. But you guys argue with me that I have placed this order.” I said, “No, I didn’t place an order to replace the microwave.” So then, she just said, “Oh, okay. Well, we'll cancel it." I never said anything to anybody because I didn’t call my home warranty because I knew I had not requested a microwave. So, I don't know where they got that from.

    The Realtor for the seller showed up with 2-10 the day I was moving in. 2-10 was part of something that I was told I needed to buy and, apparently, I did buy it at closing. And the other Realtor showed up with a booklet of it the day I moved in the house. I knew it would be a good idea to have a policy. When I submitted a claim, first, I talked to a computer and it never understood. And then I asked for an agent that explained what the problem was and told me someone’s gonna call. The contractors have been fine. They, so far, seemed able to fix what the problem was.

    I have a faucet claim in a bathroom. It’s the shower in the main bathroom. There is one lever that you push to the left to get hot, or push it to the right to get cold. We push it to the left to get hot, and it doesn’t get hot. Eight minutes was how long I tried it, and that was when I called 2-10. Apparently, there’s some sort of valve that’s not turning behind it, and the shower head itself doesn’t move.

    The only thing with 2-10 is that I have to talk to a computer that never understands before I can talk to someone who does. It would be better if I could just avoid that part of the process. Other than that, it’s been a good experience. I would tell my friends that, so far, they’ve sent people, who seemed to be qualified, and that I didn’t feel were creepy, over to fix whatever’s wrong. That’s why I have it. So there’s somebody to pick a contractor instead of me just out-of-the-air picking somebody.

    It has been very easy submitting claims to 2-10. I'd just place a phone call and explain to them what was going on and they'd get a provider to come out. When one of the toilets was backed up, I called them. It was the same plumbing issue so I didn’t get any hassle because they already had a record of me calling the first time. Their contractor removed the toilet off the foundation, snaked all the way through and replaced the toilet back on. The two contractors that came out were excellent and very professional. Right now, everything has been good.

    I had a plumbing issue and originally 2-10 gave it to a plumbing contractor. The contractor determined that the problem was the hot water heater. They forwarded all the information to 2-10 but 2-10 didn't deem it as urgent, which was upsetting. I had tenants who just moved in and it had been five days and they were without hot water. So I complained to 2-10 and they forwarded me another contractor that worked with them. The contractor came the next day, checked and figured what was wrong. Then they needed approval from 2-10 to do the work. But I didn't get a response back from either the plumbing company or 2-10. It was three days after that.

    I called the contractor and asked what was going on with the water heater. It has been almost a week that the tenants don't have water. They told me they couldn't do anything until they got confirmation from 2-10. So then I called 2-10 and tried to find out what was going on. After being on the phone for about an hour, they straightened it out. 2-10 made it sound like a filing or paperwork issue from the plumbing company. They weren't on the same page and it was almost like they didn't have confirmation either way. The contractor called that day I called and they ended up going out two days later to do the work.

    It would be nice if 2-10 would be able to get various contractors on board and they should get somebody who is available earlier, rather than later. If there was an issue, they should be able to reach out to a contractor who can handle it right away and if not, then they should be able to go to the next contractor. Also, they should do more follow-ups with the contractors to speed the process up. What happens is they wait for the contractor to contact them. If there's a gap somewhere, I'm not on top of it and it can go days without knowing if the work was even approved. Also, if one had something that's insured, there shouldn't be a level of when they get to it. If it's broken, they should get to it right away.

    Apart from the issues, the plumber who did the job accommodated us quickly. After everything was settled, they put it in 5th gear and worked on it fast to get it done. 2-10 buys their own parts for certain things and sometimes, we have to wait for them to have the parts come in. But the contractors were able to get the parts quickly and they did a great job.

    The water heater is very good now. There is a lot of difference between the old one and the new one. Last time, the water heater took a long time and you can hear it when it is turned on. Now, it's so fast and this saves gas for our house. A friend came into my house and said they put something on the top of the water heater for safety. There's a pipe but they put some circle that looks like a sucker on top. I didn't know about that and that was not put in my water heater. But everything is okay. 2-10 is doing a very good job.

    The electric water heater issue all started one evening with the lower heating element. That led to a call to initiate a service order on it. Getting that resolved ended up taking the better part of a week and a half. I had to make one call after another multiple times, day after day, but the service orders weren’t getting initiated over to the vendor. There was a big lack of communication between the service provider and 2-10, to say the least, and this particular experience was miserable. If I had it to do over again, I would’ve just gone and bought a water heater myself and replaced it. I would’ve come out cheaper on it. I would’ve never called 2-10 about it and I’m not sure if I’ll carry the warranty forward after it expires again.

    I think the vendor did an okay job though. I wasn’t there and had I been, I would’ve asked him to do something a little bit different in the way they routed the relief line. With the way they did it, you bump into it every time you take a load of laundry out. They probably did what was quickest. But the plumbing service provider was very prompt and professional in as much as they could be, given the lack of communication from 2-10's side. They were pretty qualified but they couldn’t put a new unit in because there were upgraded code issues and it ended up costing me almost $500.

    It’s great that 2-10 sends people out for my dishwasher claim, but at this point, I'm wondering if they're going to give me money to get a new dishwasher or are they going to just keep sending people out. I’ve got a full-time job and I have to take time away from work every time somebody would come out. They’ve sent people out five different times and the issue is still not resolved. When I ran my dishwasher after the guy tried to come and fix it again this morning, there’s a new problem because it started making a different noise this time.

    2-10 gets people out very quickly, and they’re very responsive, but the amount of times that they try and send somebody out to fix the same issue that’s been going will always be a waste of the customer’s time. I appreciate that I don’t have to worry about who to go to and I get a free pre-season tune up for my HVAC, which is great. Also, I can just go online through the portal, submit a request, and somebody is out there, but just because one person comes out trying to fix something doesn’t mean that they’re gonna get it fixed right away.

    2-10's customer service has been good and when I spoke to their people over the phone to file my claims, they have been as helpful as they could be. But the contractors they use have been fairly incompetent. I have lots of examples, but the most recent one was for the problem we had with our ice maker. It required six visits from two different contractors and it was still broken. Then on the seventh, the third contractor came in and realized the only problem was that our refrigerator needed more Freon. And he diagnosed the problem over the phone, came to the house, added Freon, and now both our freezer and our ice maker are working just fine. Then, there was a problem with our shower that required four visits to fix. All in all, the coverage is fairly inexpensive but the level of contractors that 2-10 uses has been completely insufficient and unacceptable.

    2-10 came with the house and then I went ahead and renewed it. Every time I talk to them, they're wonderful. They've always been responsive. They just don't always grab the right people. Maybe they should vet their repair companies a little better. For the air conditioning claims, they sent someone out who diagnosed it and they ordered a part. So that was two trips. Then both times I've had to have it fixed, it would stop working the way it should within a span of maybe two weeks. We found out that maybe there was a kink in the line. In one case, I had to have some sort of line replaced.

    The first air conditioning company didn't seem to know what they were doing. I wound up getting a second claim where I paid it and they fixed it. But then, it stopped blowing cold air two and a half months ago. The fellow said there was a part that was bad. He replaced the part but it stopped working again. It wouldn't blow cold air. He said there was a hose that was replaced last year and they bent it at a 90-degree angle so it leaked. Then it stopped working again. They sent another person out and he told me a part was broken. Just as he was about to settle up, he said he was looking at the wrong unit and it was not the thing he thought but it was something else. So this last time that we got the air conditioning fixed, it probably took six visits over the course of two months' time where I've gotta take time off or work from home or get my daughter. Two trips would be sufficient to fix about anything. We sleep upstairs and I'd like the AC fixed in under a month if we can do that next time.

    Cost-wise, 2-10 is great. I paid $100 each time and that's fine. Time-wise, there's an aspect where I'd rather pay the extra 400 or 500 bucks. I had to have a plumber come out to exchange a faucet which was not covered under warranty. They came out and charged me 250 bucks to replace two sinks. It was all done. I thought it'd be three or four visits, kinda what I was used to. I don't always have as much success with my air conditioning claims but the microwave was spot-on. My microwave would power on and do everything a microwave should do except heat food. The contractor was in and out the first time, like five minutes. I never had to lift a finger and the microwave has worked perfectly since then.

    I’ve been protected with 2-10 for 14 years. Lately, we are having really bad issues so I've been thinking to move. They are taking forever and then the contractors are not showing up. And then even if they're showing up, they are saying they don’t get paid for that until they take the pictures and they leave without fixing anything.

    Once the contractors say they're coming, they should give us on-time notice and then they should be able to fix the issue. We are working, so we don’t have ample amount of time for them to take the pictures and wait until they get approved. Some things might need approval, but some things will not really need approval. So, they are doing the same for everything lately. But if the customers are facing some issues like day-to-day life, they should be able to fix it once they say they’re showing up and doing it. Some contractors are good, but some contractors are bad. It’s a mix.

    We were lately very frustrated. I really hate to call 2-10 and be put on hold for so long. Also, they don’t have any connectivity between representatives. They don’t maintain the case details very nicely. I have to explain every time to whomever I’d get transferred to. So, hopefully, they should be able to put all that information. Nowadays with all the electronics, information should be transferred very quickly.

When they came back, they figured out that the compressor of the fridge was not working and it was the same problem that wasn’t fixed to begin with. They said I didn’t have to pay any fee for it since it was within 30 days and they would come back. They took almost a month to bring back the part because they said it was a back order.

    Eventually, they claimed that it was two months by then and that I would have to pay for it. I asked them whose fault it was since they didn’t have the part and we had to wait over a month. They originally said that it was the same problem within 30 days and I asked why all of a sudden, we would have to pay. They said that I could either pay or they were gonna have to reschedule me and I would have to wait for another month. I was disappointed. I couldn't have my tenants wait for another month without a fridge, so I ended up paying for it. I notified 2-10 about it and they said that it was unfair that it was the same problem and that the contractor didn’t fix it. Since the delay came from them, 2-10 would reimburse my money.

    We've been covered with 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty since July of 2016. I did not have a claim until earlier this year in the spring and their claims process has been horrendous. My air conditioner quit working. I’m in Missouri and it gets really hot in spring and summer here so I was worried. When I made my claim, they told me somebody would contact me within 24 hours, but I never heard from anybody. They couldn’t get anybody to come out and look at it so 2-10 told me to go ahead and go outside the network. I did and I gave them three estimates. Three and a half weeks later, while I’m in the midst of summer, the contractor has not done anything. They wanna piecemeal my air conditioner together. When 2-10 finally found somebody to come out, that person came out and said exactly what all three of my people said. After the Fourth of July, I finally got air conditioning. But my well pump went out.

    Now, I understand I only have $500 coverage for the well pump and I’m responsible for the contractor’s part of it, which they, again, couldn’t find anybody to come out. They authorized me up to $250 service fee for a contractor to come out. I went with a very reputable company that did my well when I was married and they did other wells too for many people I know. They’re amazing. They came out, did the whole ground work, looked at my electric panel, and they couldn’t find anything. But the problem had to be the pump. The only way to know it’s the pump is to pull the pump. So, they came back, pulled the pump and 2-10 said all they were gonna pay is $500. They deducted the contractor fee and only gave me a check for $400.

    Also, during the whole air conditioning fiasco, 2-10 promised me that they would give me up to $250 for some type of window unit. They never did. I have so much mold in my basement from going through a very hot summer without air conditioning. It’s like I’m gonna have to demo my basement and pitch a lot of stuff, which I’m just starting to do right now because I’m off work. Also, their reps have horrendous customer service skills as far as notating accounts. They should note in their system when they tell a customer it’s okay to go outside the network because they denied it then.

    I’m a bartender and a server, I really can’t be on my phone, but for almost two hours on and off on hold, I still got no resolution from 2-10. Thankfully, my girl friend had come in for lunch, so she stayed while I was on hold and would come get me so that I could answer a question if I wasn’t busy with customers. I lost a lot of money on those people because I had to take three separate days off work to have those guys come out and look. And as a bartender-server, I don’t get paid if I don’t work. I wanted to have my bases covered because I figured if I give them one bid, they’re not gonna like it. So, I went outside the box and I had three different bids. I took days off work for the people to come here and they just acted like I was completely insane.

    I kept the warranty thinking it was gonna help me out for when I was in a bind and it has not. It’s been more of a nightmare than anything. I have wanted nothing more than to contact Better Business Bureau about this. It’s been one thing after the other since the air conditioner. The air conditioner, then it was my hot water heater, then it was my well pump, and then my place of employment caught fire, and then Steve who lives with me has been going through cancer, so I don’t have enough room on my plate to deal with these people. I’m at the point where I’m gonna cancel them.

    We had to do two claims with 2-10 but they did a very good job. The first one was for the main water heater. It did the kitchen, the laundry room, the showers downstairs and upstairs, and it was about three weeks. It was a pretty long time. And then when they came and replaced it the tech looked down there and he said, “Well, that’s not the one that needed to be replaced.” But apparently, it was leaking. And so then, another one had to be ordered, and then it had to be sent to wherever our plumber had to pick it, so it took a while. But the guys 2-10 sent were very nice.

    2-10's wait time when you call them up is sometimes quite annoying because the call takes forever. That's one of the worst experiences. Their portal is also not up to date sometimes. So the process can be improved. If they can respond to customers on the tickets, that would be real helpful for the customers. But overall, it's not that bad. 70% time, their contractors are okay although sometimes, their contractors are not that good.

    I had an experience where my AC unit was not working and it was really hard because there was a contractor who showed up and gave all kind of estimation saying the unit had to be replaced. Then I got a call from 2-10 Warranty saying that the claim was not covered. They were not gonna replace it. That was a pretty bad experience. They gave me a hundred reasons before I pushed them hard and they agreed. I had to have a kind of an argument with them before they would cover the stuff. Then another contractor came in and the issue was simply a clogging in the AC unit. It was clogging the water and water was dripping out of the tray. But sometimes, you have to be pushy with 2-10. I felt that way with them.

    I bought the house in March and my realtor provided 2-10 for me. Recently the refrigerator was not getting down the temperature as the Freon was leaking, and the contractor that came was less than desirable. He was very friendly and helpful, but he rescheduled on me five times. It really prolonged the experience. He attempted to fix the compressor in the back with hopes of solving the leaks. It didn’t, so then he had to submit an “unable to fix” claim to the insurance company. 2-10 had to replace the fridge and I accepted the cash they were trying to give me, but I haven’t received the check yet. It took about a week to get back to me on whether it would be the fridge or the check, and I picked the check on a Friday. I’m supposed to get the check today, Tuesday.

    For the most part, every claim I’ve had with 2-10 thus far has went well, except one time with my dishwasher. I was using one particular contractor and when I called 2-10, they said that they were not using that contractor anymore and that they had to send another contractor out. Once they told me that, I called the first contractor and they told me that that wasn’t true. So, I got the feeling that 2-10 was trying to get out of fixing my dishwasher or buying a new one. It took months for me to get that resolved but 2-10 still bought me a new dishwasher. Other than that, I had no problems with any other service I have requested and I haven’t had any issues with the contractors. And I’m satisfied with 2-10 as long as I don’t have that issue again.

However, finding someone to do the repair work in our area was challenging. I waited a couple of days and I got a text or email back saying that 2-10 couldn't find anybody in my area and I needed to contact them if I wanted them to keep looking. That was annoying. I called them back and they finally found somebody. But then, the repair person they found was in my area the entire time. I don't know why 2-10's system couldn't find that repair guy. They offered the option of selecting my own contractor but since I'm new to my area, that didn't really help. I would probably choose a differently next time I work with a warranty provider.

    I've had 2-10 warranty since the initial purchase of my home and that’s over 20 years. It was a new home so it came with 2-10 and I just kept paying it. It’s easy to submit a claim but after the submission, the follow-up is the piece that gets a little wishy-washy. I can submit a claim online but I still have to call after. I've done it before and I know but someone who hasn’t used it would just be waiting probably longer than me for the business to call them back.

    When you submit the claim, they tell you to wait for the business to call you but I proactively call the business because sometimes the business is too slow for what I need. When I contacted the business for my gas water heater claim and made the appointment, at first, the rep said that she had to wait for the products for the gas water heater from 2-10. When 2-10 would tell them it was available to pick up then they would call me back and tell me they can go get it. That was fine because it was all within the time frame but again, that’s because I know. It’s not my first rodeo. I would be like, “No. You need to call them and make sure ‘cause that doesn’t sound right.” It just depends on the contractor you get, how proactive they are, what their familiarization is with 2-10 and what their process is. However, the overall experience was positive and expeditious, done in a timely manner and resulted in what I expected.

It’s not necessarily the product, it’s more of the person. But sometimes, when I hear that I got a tier three contractor, it’s a little frustrating. Then, when that one can’t be resolved, they send a tier one or tier two contractor. But there's a different pay for each tier and I don't like that part about it. But 2-10 has better options. At the end of the day, if, in fact, they simply can’t get somebody out to your location because of distance, they’ll say that you can have somebody else come look at it as long as that person agrees to accept their rate. Then, if that doesn't work out, they have a buyout program and I like that.

    We've been very pleased with 2-10 warranty. We've had them help us with the air conditioner, the heater and the refrigerator, and the process is very fast and professional. There have been a few issues with the contractors though. They're all independent contractors so some of them have a tough day or have issues. But at the end of the day, they finally get the job done.

    It took forever to deal with Ambient Heating and Air and we made a few complaints to 2-10 right in the middle of a claim. It was summertime and our upstairs AC unit stopped working. It took Ambient a week just to come out and check it. Then they said that they would submit the claim and it took a lot of time for them to submit it. From the time we reported the problem to the time they got the equipment installed, it had probably been a month. Luckily, the house has two air conditioners so downstairs was cooling and upstairs was not. We had our kids sleep in the living room for the dog days of summer. But it was a long time that everybody was camping out downstairs.

    When we'd call up, they would blame it on 2-10 saying 2-10 hadn't ordered the part yet or the part that had come in was the wrong part. But I really doubt that. I think they were a small shop and they were very overwhelmed by getting way too much business during the summer. They were just looking for ways to not lose the business. We even asked some other questions. We asked if they could find out what it would take to cool this house efficiently and they said they didn't have time to do that. They said they had too much going on and that they could do it some other time but right them, what they could was just order the equipment and then work us in once it came in. So I think Ambient Heating and Air just didn't have enough staff.

    When the technician came to do a follow-up, he came with an attitude too, probably because it was on his own time. The way he had installed the piping was way too high. It was a tripping hazard. I called him to work on that and while he was out, I asked him if he could check the cooling capacity because it seemed like it wasn't cooling very well yet. So he checked it and he agreed that the AC was not cooling the house as best that it should and that he'd have to do some additional. I thought he was gonna do the additional stuff but when I complained about him not running lines low enough, he talked with an attitude. He went back up to the attic and said he had to go get his tools. He pulled his stuff together then when I asked if he was gonna measure to find out what it would take to get the upstairs cooling properly, he said maybe some other time then he just left.

    Then the next morning, the upstairs unit would not come on. So we called 2-10 and mentioned how the guy was just out here and doing some things. He had been up in the attic and then the AC wasn't running that night but it had cooled off at night and we didn't notice that the unit was not running until the following day. 2-10 scheduled another follow-up but Ambient denied to come out. We got notified that another contractor was gonna come up and we asked why. 2-10 said Ambient had turned down the dispatch.

    So another guy came out and of course we paid him the $75 even though we didn't feel right about it because it was a follow-up. In fact, when the new company came out, they saw that the last guy had not reset a switch or a fuse. It was a real quick fix. This technician clicked something and we were up and running. I complained to 2-10, saying I didn't feel right paying $75 on a follow-up when it was a problem that the previous technician had and then he came up with an attitude and declined to come back out. But 2-10 was real good about it. They said they were sorry that they had charged us $75 on the follow-up and that they would credit it back, which they did.

    Since I had that $75 credit, that covered the claim when we had heater problems about a month later. 2-10 sent out the latest guy we had and when he came out, he was able to adjust something, fix something and get the heater up and running. We were good to go. So I don't have anything negative to say about 2-10. The only downside was that particular contractor. But 2-10 is professional and very fast. It is a very good company. Sometimes, it's the subs that they need to maybe do a little bit more follow-up on. If it's me and a whole bunch of other people complaining about Ambient Heating and Air, then maybe eventually, they could be taken off the list.

I wasted nine hours and finally got a good rep, Brandy. Once she saw what we were going through with the vendor situation, she took care of the issue. She took the bull by the horn and said that things were not right and that 2-10 was going to straighten it out.

    I'm not gonna recommend 2-10 to a friend until they get these issues straightened out. I don't want my friends calling me saying that the warranty company I gave them is this and that. 2-10 needs to show more speed as my claim has taken too long to get stuff done.

    Claims with 2-10 takes a long time so it's really difficult, personally, to submit claims to them. When I call in, the initial person that I talk to is fine, but it's really difficult once it gets given to the contractor that they use. Because I don't have liberty for them to call me. I had a claim for my gas cooktop because the top and the boiler inside were not working correctly, and the claim took 3 and a half weeks to get everything handled. That's a long time. 2-10 got the refrigerator fixed quickly but they got the washing machine fixed at the same time. The contractor had to order a part for the washing machine and that took a long time to get then for them to come back as well.

    I had to talk to three different levels of people before we decided to just take the buyout on the stove. Then I had asked if they reconsider the amount that they're giving us 'cause for as much money we had put into it, the stove is a very expensive stove, and all they were willing to pay me was $300 for it, and I still don't even have it. They said they were sending me the check but I still don't have it. I don't even know where that check is. So, it's a little frustrating. I would just like them to follow through and pay what they said they were gonna pay.

    Previously, when we've had issues with the furnace, we got really good service and the people who came out were really fast. That was a really positive experience. But for the heating and air components, they need to have more dependable contractors in the area. That part is dread. Maybe they need to pay them more because one guy told us that since 2-10 pays so little, they become the bottom priority for the list of work that he has. It's only because we have built a relationship with the heating and air people that they use, so it would not be hard to get them to come out.

    With the amount of money that I paid to 2-10, paying $80 a month for more than 14 years, I would expect that they would have covered a new stove or at least pay it half. I get that it's an older stove but we've had very few claims, and we've done nothing but pay them. So, it's kind of frustrating that way. If I would have just put in a bank account $80 a month that I've been paying to them, then I would have a significant amount of money. I could have gone out and bought in all new appliances.

    The reason I still keep 2-10 is because of things like the furnace and electrical things, which wouldn't be such an easy fix. Having 2-10 is a good plan for those. But as far as my appliances, I'm not sure if it is worth it. Right now, I don't feel like I've gotten a fair shake on it. Maybe if I would have gotten the check right away, it would have been one thing. I would have felt differently. But the fact that we went through all that and I still don't have a final one they said on it then I don't know. My husband and I are deciding whether we are gonna keep them or not, but we wanted to give them a fair chance to get the claim on the cooktop finished. And still not having the check is not helping us decide in a positive way.

    2-10 was purchased for us by the seller when we bought the house three years ago. We upgraded the coverage a little bit. The appliances were mostly original to the house, and we have a pool and the AC, one of the units was original to the house. So, that's why we kept it. Most recently, we opted to use our own pool service to perform the service rather than to use the warranty's service people. We had found that with their policy like anyone else's, they prefer to keep repairing and then replacement is the very last option for any equipment you have. And when you've got 20-year old equipment, repairing it is not an option and that was why we chose to take the cash in lieu. Even though it didn't cover all of the replacement of the pool pump, which is what we had to replace, we weren't going to throw good money after that in repairing the old pump. And we got something towards the new one. We knew what we were getting.

    We had one of our AC units started acting up pretty badly in August. Unfortunately, their vendors are busy. We weren't savvy enough to know what we needed to do, and had we known that it was gonna take this long, we would have asked also for cash in lieu on that, but by the time we got to that point, we had spent all our money on repair instead. So, we again opted for cash in lieu with the balance of our funds and had a private contractor come out, and they were here in three days. So, we were a little upset that they took so long.

    The entry-level people from 2-10 on the phone are amazing. They do everything they can for you. The middle level, I'm not crazy about them, but the top level, once you get to them with your issues, they are very quick to do what you want them to. Cash in lieu is not 2-10's favorite way to go. It does take a little persistence, and I'm not talking about getting rude with people, but you do have to just keep saying, "Okay, I need to speak to someone else." They're not offering cash in lieu. I didn't even know they did that until someone asked us if we'd like to. So, once you know that's an option, you'll stop spending your repair budget on repairs and you can go out and you can replace what you need to have replaced.

    Still, they fixed everything they said they were gonna fix. We got our garbage disposal and our garage door openers replaced without having to spend, but the other things, we replaced. You just need to read the policy and know when they say replace, they're not going to replace what you have no matter what. Our AC unit cost us $6,500, and we got cash in lieu of under 1,000, and with that, I can't blame anybody but ourselves for not thoroughly reading the policy. People really need to read the policy, and to understand what it is they're saying. I've owned other homes and I've never even used my home warranty before, but it seems like in a place where you've got bigger things like with AC and a pool, you're going to run into this kind of stuff.

It was always at least a 30-minute process, which I didn’t mind waiting, but I have a five-month-old and sometimes, he just tends to cry a lot. And the reason I had to call was because I submitted something for a reimbursement check and I hadn’t heard back through e-mail. Recently, I submitted a claim with them online and it was much easier than having to call in. Everything was pretty quick and very thorough. I was not left second-guessing about what was going on. Unfortunately, they didn't have a contractor in my area to do the water heater so I had to choose one. But the other gentleman I dealt with that was chosen through 2-10 was excellent.

    When we bought the house, 2-10 came with it but I am not happy with them at all. We ended up having to replace the entire septic system, tank and field drain lines. I paid $75 to have somebody come out and look at the tank, with the toilet, and the first guy said it was just a blockage and then, somebody else had to come out, and that guy said it was completely new filter in the field lines so he didn’t even do anything. And the first plumber that came out took the toilet off and didn’t fixture it back on, so that was an issue that I had. One of the toilets is still gurgling for some reason. I don’t feel like it was very efficient, effective or beneficial with 2-10.

    I had to pay $10,000 out of pocket for the septic tank and every time we had to call, it was another $75. I’ve paid quite a good amount of money on service calls. I'm overspending money and I cannot spend any more money, only for them to tell me that it’s a different problem. We called one person out because we had a water leak and that didn’t really get fixed. My husband was able to fix it himself.

I had two electrical issues over the year and those were pains in the butt but the dryer situation went great because it was all easy and seamless. There was a while when I was really upset with 2-10 and I didn’t like what was happening but when I found out more information and learned more about the process, it wasn't that bad.

Sometimes, they use people that are not as responsive as others. The contractors might get with you that day or more than a day. And you couldn’t necessarily rely on them to get immediate attention. I live in Houston, Texas and it’s hot most of the year. If our AC goes out, I'd try to go through 2-10. But I don’t know if it would be the best for urgent issues.

    My claim was terrible at first. I had put my claim in on a Monday and it was a holiday when we came back. The next day, a guy showed up but he didn't do anything. He just went in and said he doesn't do snaking. Then he asked for the deductible but I said I would pay it to the next person if they come and do some work. We couldn't even use the water because it was overflowing from the toilets and everything downstairs in the tub. When the second person came, he said he did not want to take the toilet off of the floor because it was a mess in there. So he went into my laundry room and cut the pipe but couldn't clear it. He just didn't want to take the toilet up. But that’s where he should’ve snaked that. Then he never put his notes in.

    So I called 2-10 again and they put me up with Hallelujah Plumbing. But I didn't get a phone call and we waited all morning. I called the company and the guy said they didn't even know they had a work order. He said he hadn't gotten a chance to look at the work orders yet. I was like, “Wow.” He said he would look at it and call me back. But he never called me back. I called 2-10 back again and told them that the guy didn't look at his work order and to send somebody else out. So I had to wait another day for somebody to come out. Finally, when the last people came out, they took the toilet up and then snaked it until they got it done.

    I’ve had good experiences with 2-10 also but this was a horrible experience because I didn't have water for a whole week. I guess these home warranties use anybody that’s qualified to go do these jobs. The only one that was great was the last one that came out there because they actually did the work. I’ve been with 2-10 for a long time and they keep sending out mediocre people. They need to vet those people a little bit more. I first had 2-10 at the other house and when something broke, they sent out a guy who looked at it and said he had to order a part. When I called a week later, he said he had the part coming. But then he came over to the house without the part. He said that he had to schedule somebody to come and do the part. I cancelled it right then and there. Then I went with another company, which was American Home Shield, but they were horrible also. You try to go cheaper but sometimes, cheaper isn't good.

    Submitting a claim to 2-10 is easy, but it would be a little tricky for a first-time user because you have to go through a lot of links to get to where you need to be. When my washer's cycle wasn’t being completed, 2-10 contacted their people very easily. However, the people they were dealing with gave me an appointment after a week, considering it as a non-urgent issue. It was an inconvenience because if you go directly to somebody, they get you in right away.

    When the contractors came, they did very well. However, the pipes were not put together securely and it came apart causing a leak through my basement. The water went through the ceiling and the floor, the ceiling. I had to get tubs and go through that whole thing myself. Although 2-10 told the contractors that it was an emergency, I had to wait another week. When the contractors came in, they resolved the issue, which was just a matter of putting the pipes together.

    2-10's air conditioning contractors need to be changed out, which is where the problem is. The contractors give appointments way out. AC is an urgent matter in the summer, but they give you the runaround because it’s a very expensive issue to fix. Twice, I’ve had to pay $5,000 out of my pocket despite having insurance because 2-10 deals with mom-and-pop stores as opposed to big contractors. The mom-and-pops are not reliable and give solutions that are not sustainable. So for my AC issues, I’ve always paid out of my pocket and 2-10 would give me 500 as compensation, although I have receipts to say that I paid 5,000. 2-10 is excellent with the plumbing, the dishwasher, and other minor stuff, but with big problems like with the air conditioner and refrigerator, there’s a problem with the contractors they deal with.

Submitting claims as well as getting to find the vendor is easy, but if you have to get a part, that's where all the dissatisfaction and hold-ups are. The vendors aren't able to get the parts locally. They have to wait for 2-10 to order them, and they come from a warehouse. For instance, if the compressor goes out on an air conditioner, I had people without air conditioners for three weeks in 100 degrees in Georgia and that's common. The problem is having to wait for them to ship the parts.

I wish we have other options of other companies that could provided services, because when I reviewed that particular company, they had really poor reviews on staff and on not fixing the problem. So, I was very nervous about them being in my home.

    When the contractor first came out, they were unable to fix the issue, which was understandable. They had to get it approved, where they had to knock out the tile and do more of a repair from that. The original plumber called me wanting to set up the time to have them to come out to do that expensive repair, and I had asked if Saturdays were available because I was at work. He said, “I’ll have to check and I’ll let you know.” But he never did. That following Saturday morning, I got a phone call that they were 20 minutes out.

My realtor had to get involved and 2-10 sent somebody else in who then said that it was the thermal expansion tank that needed to be replaced and not the water heater. If somebody comes in and tells me that my water heater needs to be replaced, I'm gonna trust them. 2-10's contractor was not trustworthy and I spent days upon days calling 2-10 to fight this. I don't think I will be renewing with them. Their customer service was rude too.

    I had a plumbing claim with 2-10, of which I wasn’t happy at all. The first company was Melton Plumbing, and they told me it would cost $750 and go outside to do the work. A friend told me that that was not the case. So, they tried ripping me off. I then closed it with them and they gave me my $100 deposit back. After that, I called a different company and asked them if they could run the snake. They did and they told me they would be at my home between 11:00 and 2:00.

    Nobody called and notified me from the second plumbing company on that day they were supposed to come. So, I called them at quarter till 3:00 and said, “Where are they at?” They eventually arrived and they ran the snake inside the house. I was in and out of the house, in the back, and in the garage, but they told me that they had ran the snake 30 feet outside. They said they were inside on the main line, and I did see them running that one. So, they took care of the sink issue and everything’s okay now.

    We got 2-10 warranty when I bought the home last month and I’m not satisfied in my whole experience with them so far. I was given a check for the windows to be replaced and I still ain’t got that done. The chimney people have told me twice that they were gonna call me but they haven't. It has been past 60 days that I’ve been trying to get the window and roofing company in, so I’m not happy.

    With 2-10, it seems like it takes quite a while sometimes to hear back from the contractor. Last year, a contractor made a really bad repair which resulted in the overflow of the drain pan in my upstairs AC unit. And because he had left so much insulation in my pan when he kicked everything around, there were handfuls of insulation in the pan and the insulation stopped up the drain line for the pan. So, I had water running down my walls and it flooded my house. He didn’t wanna make right on it and 2-10 said that was between me and the contractor. So, I really didn’t like that part. But I got with my personal insurance agent for that. He got me the details and I was able to file a claim against the contractor under his liability insurance. He ended up replacing the attic portion of the air conditioning unit because of the leak. Other than that, I recently had an issue with the hot water heater and my claim for that seemed to go pretty smoothly. It was all covered.

    On 10/8/19 I reported an AC out at one of our properties that we manage. It took two days for them to send a technician out. Then, apparently, the technician didn't do exactly what they thought he needed to did, so they arranged for another contractor to go out on 10/22/19. We live in the south where the temperature reached 90+ degrees on any given day. This tenant will be out of air for over two weeks. I have been very patient, however, my patience is slim to none now. We are a real estate company who sells Home Warranties weekly. I will NEVER use 2-10 again. Like any insurance agency, they bank on there being no claims; however, this homeowner did not pay $425 to not have the service expedited in a reasonable amount of time. All involved are very dissatisfied!

    We were given a 2-10 home warranty when we purchased our new home. We made a claim on our furnace system and 2-10 denied our claim due to the problem being a "pre-existing condition." I spoke with a representative who informed me that the contractor had stated that this was "100% a pre-existing condition and had to have been broke for quite sometime." After this phone call the contractor actually called me to see what 2-10 had said. When I told him what they said, he stated that he told them that in his professional opinion this was not a pre-existing condition and he never told them that it was.

    I called 2-10 back and confronted them about lying to me. This representative then admitted to me that the contractor reported that this was not a pre-existing condition and that we needed to move forward with the claim. When I spoke with a supervisor she also stated that the contractor did report that it was not a pre-existing condition, but that they reserve the right to deny any claim. 2-10 will pull any dirty trick to keep from performing the services they claim they cover. They are a scam and you should stay away.

Our valves went bad underneath our sink and there was no way to cut the water off. The plumbing kept leaking and leaking for over a month. My husband called 2-10 and contractors came out. The first plumber who came wasn't professional. He misdiagnosed the whole ordeal.

    The plumber was supposed to come back out but 2-10 told them that we didn't want them at our house when we never said that. So, they decided not to come and our stuff kept leaking. We had to call and pay for plumbing ourselves to get it fixed out of our pocket because 2-10 as well as their plumbers failed to do their job. Also, 2-10 said our toilet is not replaceable and they won't fix it. Their contractor refunded out $100 and said it would take 10 to 15 days. Now, we have another insurance claim that we have to claim and we have to pay a deductible again for no reason because 2-10 failed to do their job.

They thought they repaired it, but they haven't. I'm gonna stay on top of that 'cause I only have 60 days but so far, so good.

    We got the policy at closing which was paid for by the people that sold us the house and they probably knew they had some things wrong. I haven't really had a lot of issues but I was disappointed. Within a month, I have not received anything from 2-10. I had to call my realtor and told her that although I had the insurance policy, I didn't have any paperwork. He showed me the receipt that happened at closing, which I was glad to see 'cause that was proof. Although our experience has not been perfect, it hasn't been bad either.

    We've been covered by 2-10 for almost three years now. We have submitted two claims with the most recent being last week. And that was more difficult than the first one because we didn't get an immediate response, so I had to call back. They had to transfer the service to a different service person. Everything through the website is pretty smooth. I just wish the execution was a little bit better. And then with the folks that they used, one of the guys who came to the house couldn't speak English. So, we were using a translator app in some cases. I was on the phone with his boss in a couple of other cases. So, the communication wasn't there like I would like it to be. Everything was resolved, but it took longer than it should. I couldn't get straightforward answers.

    The guys who came out and did the claim were thorough. When he was cleaning the fridge, he broke one of the glass mounts in there, so then they had to buy one and order one and bring it by the house, so they did that. But that's not 2-10's fault. I just hope 2-10 would be more proactive on how they communicate the status of a claim even if it's via text like, "Hey, we got your claim. We're on it. Look for a note from us soon" or "We've assigned a vendor. Click into your account." It gives you more real-time access into it.

    My dealings with 2-10 have been relatively straightforward and smooth. But there were times when I wanted to speak with someone and I couldn't get through to a representative. I hope they would make it more consistently seamless to connect through a representative. Whenever we have a problem with the house, we want answers right away. So we want to know that there is an illusion of progress and that things are happening right. Then we would have some difficulties with some initial stuff and getting the people to come out right away. The people that were within our network weren't always available, especially on weekends, so that was a bit tough. Besides that though, everything has been great. The contractor they sent for our garbage disposal was great and he came out the next day. A metallic piece got stuck and lodged in it. It wasn't worth taking it out and in the end he replaced the entire unit. He did it quickly so everything was good.

    2-10 does not have any contractors in my area to handle that type of thing, which is somewhat disappointing. I’ve had that issue with them before with plumbers. So what they did was they approved me to go out of their network for a plumber. But it took me two or three tries before I found somebody that would accept the job. Once I did find somebody that would accept it, things went okay because he came out and fixed it. He put in a new garbage disposal, and I had to pay him the full amount and then 2-10 reimbursed me. Everything went fine with the claim. But I’d rather have a contractor come out and fix the issue.

    As it turned out, 2-10 only covered up to a certain amount of the garbage disposal that was put in. So, I had to pay the difference. Plus when I got it all approved, the person on the phone at 2-10 told me that the maximum approved amount was $400. And then when I got the reimbursement check, it was $325, which I understand, that it was the 75 deductible. But they should have told me that on the phone.

    To make a claim at 2-10, you call first to get an authorization number, and then you submit the paperwork online. Luckily, the company that I went with had emailed me all the invoices so I was able to just forward it. Initially, the claim was written up wrong. They put it in as an electric water heater, so the company that came out didn’t service the type that we had. I still had to pay the $100 fee.

    However, I was pleasantly surprised with 2-10. Once they reevaluated everything, they let me call whoever I wanted, and they reimbursed me for everything, except for the diagnostic fee that the company charged me which was less than the initial fee. It really worked out in my favor. The company had to come out twice ‘cause there were two different issues, and they didn’t find the second issue until they were fixing the first issue. So, I was able to get both the first and the second issue taken care of through the warranty company. I would like to continue to stay with 2-10 for the next several years.

    Somebody had recommended 2-10 and they said that it was better than other companies. The guy that came out yesterday really knew what he was doing and did a great job. He was knowledgeable and very professional. He got in and out within 40 minutes. One time I called and I wasn’t for sure if the rep was gonna understand or know what was going on, but she did and she said, “Okay, we’ll have somebody out.”

    We had a number of plumbing leaks immediately after the purchase of a new home. After a phone call with 2-10 we had our plumbers come out and fix the leaks ($1k worth of damage) and then submitted for reimbursement, per their suggestion. When we submitted for reimbursement, we were met with silence. After finally getting ahold of someone, a manager spitefully told us we were idiots for not using someone in network, and that 2-10 wouldn't contribute a single penny towards our repairs.

    I have had this warranty for a few years now. I went with a a.c for over a month in July because they insisted on fixing my 18 year old unit that still cost me over 600 dollars. My bathtub leaked and a tech came and fixed it for it to keep leaking and then cancelled his appointment with me for over a month that led to a wall under the bath to leak. I have had a pipe that would overflow and have had 4 different plumbers out over it. One of the 1st ones cut into the cast iron pipe saying the washer pushed to much water out to fast.

    The Warranty company covered it but the pipe still overflowed. Then we have snaked it a few times and today the plumber told me that a different pipe needed to be cut and warranty would not cover it. So my same warranty plan that's went up in price over the last 2 years now picks that the exact same thing would not be covered. They have a lot of questionable techs that comes to your house and the same covers that you've had since day one continues to change.

    Made a claim to 2-10 on 9/24/19. A contractor came out, made a diagnosis but failed to send it in to 2-10. Once he did I was told it would take 5-6 days for approval. I waited (my error) and when I called I was told that the contractor was unable to complete the job. Now I have to go through the entire process again! Another diagnosis, another week to wait for approval. If I had been called this review would not be necessary.

    I filed a claim to 2-10 over the phone for the refrigerator. The rep who assisted me was good. This experience was better than the last one I had with them a couple of years ago, and I was pleased with that. Compared to the first time I needed them, the second time was very different and much improved. The contractor came out in a couple of days. He was excellent. He checked the ice maker and told me exactly what needed to be done and when it was gonna be done, so I had a plan.

    I had a plumbing issue about two months ago. The toilet tank was leaking and there was another leak in the bathroom sink. There were 3 or 4 leaking copper pipes and small leaky things. We can close them but they will hold the water, so the water will flow down if we release. I called 2-10 and told them. They put the different claim numbers, but it was one order all together. I asked for the same contractor who fixed my water heater last year because I liked them and their work and honesty. They accommodated that and so the same plumbing company replaced the pipes and solved my problem. It was nice.

    The electric water heater was leaking hot water in our garage so I filed a claim with 2-10 online and that went okay. But they were telling me to bring the heater up to code. They had to install a bunch of things that were not included in the home warranty. So the total bill was going to be more than if I had just gone out and bought a new hot water heater. 2-10 did have a buyout option though, which I took, and I did receive the check. But it didn’t buy a new water heater. The amount only covered half or so.

    I went to use the garbage disposal one day and it started to make a humming sound and it stopped completely. I called 2-10 and they were prompt in having a technician come to the house. He looked at it and said that there was a lot of rust buildup inside the motor and that it needed to be replaced. He replaced it and it's working fine now. I typically call 2-10 or do it over the automated phone whenever I file a claim, and it has been a very easy process. I've used them twice within the last couple of months and in both times, they were very prompt in getting back to me and following up with me. I was pleased with the overall outcome and the service I got from 2-10.

    I’ve been paying the premium on 2-10's warranty for 3 years and I’ve used them for the first time but it wasn’t a good experience. I went for over a month without any light in my kitchen. I had to move a lamp in my kitchen to have lighting while they worked on the claim, which I don’t understand. I had to call repeatedly to get them to give me an answer about the fixture. I called and waited almost a week until the contractor could come out. He came out and they said they had to send it to some review board because of the type of fixture it was. Then they said it would take 5 to 7 business days. On the eighth business day, which was almost a third week in, I had to call them and I was put on hold and bounced around. I was on the phone for over an hour, during my working day, just trying to get some sort of resolution and for people to make up their mind.

    I had a light fixture in that kitchen when I bought the property, and 2-10 agreed to insure the stuff in there. If my furnace would go out or if this were my hot water heater, would I go a month without hot water while 2-10 tries to decide what they were gonna do. It is a light fixture and I could’ve hired my handy guy and he could’ve put in a better grade fixture for the same amount of money that I ended up paying out of pocket on top of my premium for the year. I could’ve fixed that light fixture and paid my own people and still come out ahead instead of paying 2-10's premium and having to wait. It was almost five weeks by the time the guy got back out. Only because I was already in deep with the guy so I had to continue on with them. They were not even a union shop. The guy was telling me where he used to work and he had little electrical background. Yet he was working on the wiring in my home.

    Also, 2-10 didn’t even near cover my expenses or replaced what I had. I received two separate checks, which was very confusing. It was an imported light fixture that costs a little over $300 and they did not even give me enough money to replace it with a fixture and pay the labor to have the other one replaced. I decided to paying the $100 co-pay on it. I also had to put out an additional $50 out of my own pocket on top of that to have a $300 light fixture replaced. So, I ended up paying almost as much as that fixture cost for them to handle it for me. And I didn’t even get a light fixture equivalent to what was in there. All in all, I wasn’t very happy nor pleased and I have no intentions of renewing. If it’s gonna cost me out of pocket like that, I can hire my contractors. I don’t see the point of having 2-10 and I’m definitely not staying with them.

    I’ve had 2-10 for over 12 years. Submitting a claim is fine but the contractors responding whenever they feel like it is another story. When I submit a claim, the contractor will call. On the last claim that I did for my air conditioning, the contractor called me right away, which was kinda cool. He asked what day do I want him to come out. I asked if he could come out that day. He said he could meet with me the next morning. I told him I couldn't do the next morning. It would have to be after work like 6 o’clock. He said, “Okay, between three and six.” I’m like, “No, I said six.”

    I got to the house at 6 o’clock, and 7:30 came but this man was nowhere to be found. So, I went back to my hotel room, and then he called me at a quarter to eight and told me he was at the house. But I told him it should be at 6 o’clock. And then the first words that came out his mouth when I got here was that my deductible was $75. This contractor was a piece of work. The rental plumbing people came out, and they were smoking in front of me. I don’t smoke. Me and my husband were pissed about that.

    Also, they never came back to finish the work. It's been a freaking mess. I’m over it. And then, the lady that I spoke to from 2-10 Warranty told me, “Well, you can never file a claim like this again because we paid out the max on this claim.” The same issue happened again. So, last month, we put in a claim for water damage. The contractor clearly didn’t do his job because he was supposed to have a plumbing company come out here and do the plumbing work. He never did that. When I flush the toilet, the water is backing up into the house again. So, I couldn’t call 2-10 because I was told that I can’t file another claim like that again. I had to call Roto-Rooter and come out of pocket with money. I’m really less than impressed right about now.

    We've been with 2-10 for 11 years or so and they ain’t doing us right. One time, we had some things to be repaired and we had to pay some money out for them to put a faucet thing in the bathroom. The quality of the contractor's work was okay but we didn't have to pay for anything because we pay every month. At another time, the water in the bathtub didn’t run out of it like it was supposed to. Plus, the hot water in the faucet downstairs and in the washroom dripped. So, my daughter kept the hot water turned off in both faucets. 2-10 didn't cover the repairs for those and I don't know why. But they put a thing on the shower and all they had to do was set that back up there. All in all, I was satisfied with the service that they did for some things but they don’t do everything that they are supposed to.

    My most recent claim with 2-10 was for the electric water heater. Submitting the claim was okay, except when they were here working on it, I had to call in and talk to a representative, so they could okay it. It kinda makes it hard because they wanna get their work done and go. But they had to stop and talk. And then it took forever to get someone. The call volume was pretty high during the work period time.

    I had 2-10 for 10 years and at first, they were very nice. But they got nastier as it went and the very last claim I had was for a hot water heater that went out. They wanted $740 to replace it and I thought that was what I had a policy for. But they told me that it was for this and that. Finally, I gave them so much trouble, I got them down to $340, and they rebated me the $100. I wound up paying $240. The last person I talked to was their claims department and they were the ones who gave me the better price. But it was very frustrating and at that point, I'd already gone through hell for days with them.

    I’m 80 years old, diabetic, and a heart patient, and I didn’t deserve that kind of treatment. I pay my bills on time and I knew I deserved better treatment than that. They got the customer over a barrel and they know it, and that was their whole attitude. One of the plumbers that does the service told me that they didn’t like 2-10 either.

    At the time, they were in a position where they could make that whole thing go away but they didn’t do that. They just screwed me around to where I was crying and upset. It was terrible and I don’t like the way they treat customers. I was in a place where I didn’t have much of a choice and I had to get it done. I couldn't just go around forever without hot water. And I was lucky that it was in the summertime. It would have been worse if it had been in winter. I also paid a a carpenter to come and put the door frame back on the door on the wall. So that was another $125. Somebody should rebate me the money for all the craps that I went through. After that, I’ve cancelled the policy and I switched to another policy holder because I don’t wanna go through that again.

Once someone was sent out, they were supposed to have someone call me from the vendors to collect the service payment but they didn't do that. From there, it was approved and kept going. I was supposed to pay the 70 upfront but I didn't end up paying that till about two weeks after they caught their accounting glitch and called me so I gave them the credit card.
