We've had 2-10 for a while and we are really happy with them. The last claim we had was for the water heater that was leaking through the top. That was pretty nice and quick. I would recommend 2-10.

I bought an older house and ended up with a lot of problems. I have a disabled daughter who is on a ventilator and the electric was failing in the house. It was a little bit more work than I thought it would be but it all worked out in the end. I also filed a claim when the refrigerator went out. I spoke with a young lady and she said they would get back with me within two hours. It was late. I called and I spoke to her supervisor. He said sorry that they dropped the ball and that they would have somebody out by the next day. The process was a lot longer than I thought it would be but the service contractor was great and did a very good job. She did everything for me and she texted everything. She also showed me it could possibly just need this one part which she had on-hand and she tried it but our refrigerator never cooled down. So, that's how she knew the next day that it was definitely the whole motor that went out.
We're trying to find the right refrigerator but they did send me the allotted money for it. So, after I flied the claim, it took a whole lot longer. My sister purchased a smaller refrigerator for me so I could make the transition. It was a rough experience submitting the claim. I did it on the phone and then, they called me that they were sending me an email that I had to look at. This was in my Google account which has this big, "Reply to this email" over it. So, I replied to the email. I patiently waited one week giving them time and then I found out that I wasn't supposed to reply to the email. Once I called them, they turned it right around and sent me a check.

I’ve had 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty off and on for about 10 years. I submit my claims over the phone and sometimes, it takes forever on hold before you talk to somebody. They need to hire more people. Also, I’ve had issues with their contractors. Sometimes, the people they send out don’t know what they’re doing. That has happened several times. They seem to have sent out people that weren’t top quality, and found somebody cheap who would do it so that they don’t have to pay a lot of money. If I looked online, then found that contractor another way, I would’ve probably used somebody better.

I knew somebody that uses the 2-10 service and has been very pleased with it. We decided to check 2-10 out and we liked what we saw. The turnaround and response have been fantastic so far. I had somebody come out and look at a dishwasher, and I wasn't thrilled with him. This was a real small job for him and I didn't think he has good people skills. I had to probe him for information that I thought would have been appropriate for me to know as a customer, even though he's contracted by 2-10. He got the job done, but I really had to press him, ask him what happens next and what could I expect. That part was disappointing. But the 2-10 reps were very friendly and thorough. They called me and said, "Here's what we'll do." It was effortless.

I submit claims to 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty online or over the phone. It has been easy and when I speak to a rep, it has been excellent. They're always friendly, always take care of the problem, and get back in touch with me promptly. I had a claim for the water heater and a contractor came out in a couple of days, on the same day as they called me. The contractor was great and they worked well with me. They had been here before. They had to replace the water heater and that had to be cleared and ordered. The new water heater is working well.

When I bought the condo, the people I bought it from has already purchased 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty. I did the first claim online and the website was fine, but ever since then, I've been using the telephone. The menu was a little tough to get through and there were always long hold lines. Submitting a claim has been a mixed experience. It’s 50% excellent and 50% very poor. I had one contractor who was totally a no-show and now, I'm another week and a half without a dishwasher so it's kind of annoying. I had one person do the inspection then, I had one person do a delivery and now, there's a third contractor to do the install. The install didn’t happen. It would be nice if they could have one person do it from start to finish instead of all of them.

I’ve been living here for over a year and I’m a renter, and 2-10 is what the owner has. I got a brand-new hot water heater but the contractor took too long in replacing it. There was a mix-up in ordering at the front office. They were under the impression that the insurance company was supposed to order the item. So, over a week went by, and no one ordered the item. It turned out that the company who was installing it should have been the one ordering it. They told us that it was what their job was supposed to have been days after. They dropped the ball, leaving me with no hot water for over a week. Although the workers were very good and the service was great, it caused me a week of discomfort.

We keep 2-10 on our Alabama house because our service has been great. We've had provider people in the area for our house down there and we had no problems. However, when we had to go through getting a new stove replacement, even the stove company people said that it was an older stove and they couldn’t repair it. 2-10 tried to locate a part and made it even longer. At that point, there was no stove in the house for six weeks and it was a huge inconvenience. $500 was ridiculously small for a new stove and it wouldn't have covered the cost of an equivalent. I told them that they were gonna replace it because I didn't agree to that. I got a new stove and a replacement. It worked out but that process was painstakingly ridiculous.
I would recommend 2-10 to anybody in Alabama and I would be the perfect person to recommend if I wanted to in Maryland but I won't because of the service providers. We didn't renew our house up in Maryland with 2-10 because when we needed a plumber one time, it took three different tries to get a plumber to come out. I've had people come out and service my HVAC system here, but at the end of the day, for as much as I pay to maintain my HVAC system, I might as well just pay out of pocket for it here. I'm a real estate agent and I wouldn't recommend them to any of my clients up here because of the ordeals I've had to go through with getting a service provider for a plumber.

2-10 Home Buyers Warranty came with the new home when we purchased it. We closed on April the 26th, so we have been with them for a little more than a month. Overall, it was a good experience submitting our claim for the water heater and things got taken care of. I did it over the phone and the claims reps were friendly and helpful. However, it was gonna be several days before the contractor could come out and we told them that was unacceptable. It was too long of a time for the service. We had water leaking from the water heater out onto the floor. They said we could choose our own plumber and we did. We paid for it and we got reimbursed so it was no problem.

Most of the reps at 2-10 were extremely helpful. I had one rep that wasn't quite personable. She was not rude but she was just the very straightforward type. The contractors were fantastic. They were very helpful and very understanding. They were on top of the issue and took care of it quickly. The only thing is when the contractors contact 2-10 back with the issue, they need to be upfront about how long it's gonna be and what kind of extra expense it could possibly be. I was expecting something to be done more quickly and it took me three days to get a hot water heater. It was a little bit cumbersome because some of the information in timing was not given to me upfront about the replacement part of it. They should have told me upfront that it was gonna be up to 48 hours to process. This will give more ease to the homeowner. But overall, 2-10 was very quick on my heater, my heat, and on my air conditioner as well.
Reviewed June 3, 2019
Submitting a claim to 2-10 was good but it took 25 days to fix the problem with the air conditioner. We filed a claim on the 7th and the contractor came and fixed it on the 31st. I called up 2-10 and the rep said that the part was on the way. I called the contractor and he said that they didn’t receive the part. So, I didn’t know which one was at fault. I wasn’t happy with 2-10, and I would not recommend them because the experience I had lately was not good. 2-10 has to respond fast and ask the contractor to do the work faster. Nevertheless, the technician did a good job and since the repair, we have had no problems.

I've been having an ongoing issue and the first time the contractor came out was about three weeks ago. They were able to come the very next day but they didn’t fix the problem in the first place. They did not do any sort of comprehensive check of my air conditioning system. They just came in, found the part that needed to be replaced, changed the part that they had available right there and then left without actually checking to see if the system worked.
When I've had follow-ups, the same people and the same company came out. They had to order a part then they came and replaced the part. But again, they did not check to see if the system is actually working. The system was blowing air but it was not blowing cold air. So they came out again, checked the Freon levels and put more Freon. The system blew cold air for about a week but stopped doing that yesterday. I finally called 2-10 again to get a different contractor out because the old contractor had come four times and did not actually check to see if there were any more problems than the ones that they found easily. And 2-10 was great. They did fine. It's the contractors that have been the issue and 2-10 has no control over the contractors working for them. I've submitted most on my claims to 2-10 via an automated system and that works all right. When I've had to speak to a representative, they were fine as well.

When we filed a claim with 2-10 for our heat and air, it went smoothly. The contractor they sent out was a very nice and knowledgeable man. He did a good job and we have air right now. Also, any time we have a question, 2-10 is always easily gotten ahold of and they answer things very well. I would definitely recommend them to somebody else.

With the company that serviced our AC last year, their technician installed the component backward. I would never use them and we told 2-10 about it. This AC was an issue in itself and it had been an ongoing issue. So I had to go through this and call 2-10 again to get it done. The company that came out this time was very good and professional, and they took care of everything. And so far, so good. The air conditioner is working, and I've called my tenant and she's happy. The work that they did seemed to be good right now. Hopefully, everything stays working.
The technician was the best guy that I had come out for this AC. He went by the book with his steps on fixing the ac and if those weren't working, he would then do different steps. I like the way he works. The company had some problems with their scheduling system and they didn't make it to one of the appointments that we had scheduled. It was on a Friday, but they came out first thing the next day. Though I was a little frustrated with that, I wanted their guy to come back out because he was that thorough. If they train all their guys to have the mindset that he does and the way he goes about making his repairs, then I will absolutely call that company in a heartbeat. They're the best heating and air conditioning company that 2-10 has sent me since I've had them. They were professional and knowledgeable. And the people that I talked to were all great.
I've been using 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty for years. They're very responsive and they always send people out. The air conditioner was a hit and miss, and you always go through a period in the summertime in Virginia when it's 1,000 degrees and the air conditioning people are very busy. But I've never had an issue with 2-10 at all. I've even used them for my own residence and I recommend them.

Horrible company to work with, they tell you whatever you want to hear to get you to sign up and pay $300 as a member.

I bought 2-10 when I built the house and I've had the coverage for 13 years. When we first started out, it was just a couple hundred dollars a year to have the coverage, so it was very reasonable. Submitting a claim is fairly easy. I either call or I go online. 2-10's reps were fine and when their contractors come out, they usually fix the problem. But I had the new AC replaced and my thermostat still isn't working properly. I’ve had them come out twice now to take a look at it and it hasn’t been fixed. Also, it’s one of the Monday through Friday services so, if it happened in the weekend, they will kinda auto-lock. That’s the only thing I don’t like about it, especially with AC matters in Florida. One time I had the AC broke down on a Saturday and I called in and I didn't get anyone out till Monday or Tuesday, which was kinda miserable.

I was referred to 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty by my Realtor when I bought a home last year. She highly spoke of their services, and she had paid for the first year. The first year, I had great service. But when I tried to renew, I had issues there. I received an email about, “Renew now and there’d be a discount.” So I went on renewing, thinking I’d get the same thing I had that my Realtor gave me. But then I learned that it wasn’t the same as that option. I had called for service for my water heater went out, but then I learned that I had to come out-of-pocket and my plan wasn’t the same as she ordered.
I talked to the guy when I had the water heater issue. And he had a bad attitude. It was maybe three weeks that the house was without hot water. I had to shower every day because I’m a street cop. So I get home all dirty from work. After 12 hours a day, I get home and I am wanting a nice warm shower. And I come and get in a cold shower. I got kids, and the kids are refusing to shower because it’s cold. The service contractor was great. I have no issues with him. He was thorough and explained everything to me about the water heater and how to set it once a year. He said, “You take care of this hot water heater, it’ll last you for life.” Overall, 2-10 has been great to me but I hated the experience about the delivery time. And then on top of that, they had to re-order my parts, which is another delay. But 2-10 made it a more expedited than normal delivery.

There was a time when my AC quit working. I submitted a claim over the phone to 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty and that went well. However, the delivery of the needed part to the contractor was a week behind. Still, the contractor was fine and now everything is working.

I’ve been protected with 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty since I bought my house last fall and submitting claims was fairly straightforward once I had the instructions. However, I didn't get a confirmation that it had been received. When I called, they said that they got it, so that was fine. When I ask for assessments or first diagnosis, I usually do it over the phone. I've done a number of things over this year. I'm glad that I had a seller who got a home warranty because there were some issues that I wasn't aware of.
Some of the stuff, like with plumbing, was more difficult when submitting a claim. We have very specific language that the representative won't necessarily know. They just have a list of items and the plumbers use a very specific term for the actual bit of the valve that's broken. They don't use exactly the right term that 2-10 uses and the representatives aren't always knowledgeable about plumbing. They're not plumbers and they won't understand that the thing is covered. So, they would tell the plumber it's not when it actually is.
Some of my experiences with contractors seemed to be fine. The person I had who came out for my HVAC in the wintertime was fabulous. He came out first thing the next morning and was really great. Then, the plumber was very nice but that was the one where it was really funny, because they wanted to order the parts, and the parts took forever, and it was really hard to get a hold of them. So that was a challenging repair, mostly because of the parts, not because of the actual contractor himself who came to the house.
For the Freon issue, I placed a request and the timing was really difficult. It was a Saturday and I was leaving first thing Monday morning for a week. I ended up calling around for as many people as I could to find someone who would come out Sunday morning to do a diagnosis. I couldn't get the person 2-10 assigned me to and they didn't even answer the phone over the weekend. I ended up going with a third party and then did an outside claim with that one. It was specifically because of my constraint that I was gonna be gone for a week, and I wanted the chance to have the part be in the works while I was gone.
Dealing with home repairs of this type is always frustrating and part of the frustration gets brought into dealing with another party. Bringing in the home warranty company just add more challenge and paperwork, as opposed to just calling up your friendly neighborhood HVAC technician and finding someone who could come out immediately. So, my experience is that 2-10 was prompt about ordering parts and giving me my reimbursement. That was very lovely and I’m happy.

I just re-signed my contract and I'm going on my fourth year with 2-10. It's easy to submit, but they don't have any preferred contractors. So, it is a little bit difficult to get somebody for my area to come out because they're not familiar with the home warranty company. But after I explained it and do some extra steps, they're usually happy to oblige. When the contractor comes out, I have to then call them along with the contractor to get authorization for whatever service I need, and then I have to pay out of pocket for the contractor and then get reimbursed through 2-10.
Having to pay $800 a year for a warranty, and then when something breaks, having the full cost come out of the pocket before getting reimbursed is kind of burdensome. It would be nice if there was some kind of way where they could send a check directly to the vendor or work out the payment directly so that my family doesn't have to always come out the full cost of repair, and then wait up to three or four weeks to get reimbursed. We pay our premiums on time every month, and it will be a nice courtesy if they're looking for ways to improve. That would be a great improvement, at least, for my family situation.

I’m a licensed Realtor and our company is now endorsing 2-10. I've had their service for about a month now. I was very disappointed at first with 2-10. I had an issue with my air conditioning and I know that’s a big ticket item, but it was totally gone. I called it in on a Saturday and I knew no one would come out on the weekend. They sent a technician on Monday, which was great, but he said that it needed to be replaced. They told me that they were not gonna be replacing it but they thought they would try to fix it and I was without air conditioning for about two weeks. 2-10 was still looking for parts for it and we were having temperatures in the 95-degree. Finally, 2-10 called me and I spoke with their rep and my broker spoke with him. 2-10 re-evaluated everything and they contributed towards the new air conditioner even though I had put it in myself, which I was very, very thankful for. It was a period of almost two weeks.
The cost to me was 4,700 and I put a warranty on it through the company that installed it for me. It came with a 10-year warranty, but I put a warranty on it to cover refrigerant and a technician if it needed any service and that was for 10 years. So, it’s guaranteed for everything for 10 years now. And 2-10 contributed 3,325, so I was pleased that they came around in the end and gave something towards it at least. I’ve sold two more warranties to customers and I’m still suggesting. What I had to go through beforehand was very disappointing. But 2-10 kept in touch with me. It was just frustrating when they were looking for parts for something that was 30 years old and the technician had said to them he couldn't find those.

It's been easy submitting claims to 2-10. I haven't had any snags. They would take the claim and somebody would call me the next day who would fix whatever was wrong. I hadn’t had any trouble with their contractors. They were friendly, and they do the job. They let me know what was going on and what they were gonna have to do. They would call it in and let me know how much it was gonna be. The only thing I don’t like about 2-10 is that they don’t let you choose. They will set you up with somebody instead of saying, “We’re going with these people. Is that okay with you?” Because they send the same people out from the same company all the times that I've had to have them come out.

I filed a service request with 2-10 and the customer service at 2-10 has been great. They sent a service contractor who diagnosed the issue and said that my refrigerator was messed up and that we needed a new one. But the people that they purchased it through, which was Lowe's, kept changing the schedule. It was three weeks before I ended up getting the fridge. In the end, Lowe's brought it out here. They told me that they were gonna be at home at 6:00 PM and then called me at 4:10 one day telling me that 6:00 was too late. And so, I had leave work early and rushed home. It was not a good time with Lowe's by any means but everything was good through 2-10.

I submit claims online to 2-10 and as long as it’s working, it’s easy. When it's not working, which is 25% of the time, it's very difficult. The drop downs wouldn't work, or it would freeze and won't let me submit it. It could be a day or two to get the contractor out and it depends on my schedule too. So, it can be fast. It won’t happen on the same day but within two to three days. The last time, it took two days and when the contractor came out, he quickly looked at my dryer and said that the computer board was dead and had to be repaired. He looked it up and the part wasn't available locally, so he said he would have to call me back or 2-10 would have to try to find the part on their behalf. That was when it started to be a long process.
I called the next day to check in and 2-10 was having difficulty finding the part as well. They had to escalate it to the parts department so then, I waited and waited. I called back a couple of other times and finally heard back that the part was no longer being manufactured. So, they offered me either a replacement or a buy-out and I ended up going with the buy-out. I looked at the reviews on the options that they gave and it wasn't one that I would have purchased. Plus, it was not going to be compatible with my current washer because I have a small space and it's a stackable unit, and that wasn't going to be feasible. I found out that due to the washer being a couple of years old and due to safety concerns that they can't just put a brand new dryer, even the same brand on top of the old washer, I have to replace both units and not just one.
I've ordered it and I was hoping that 2-10 will work with me because I had to replace the washing at that time too. I was upset because it was not what I intended but it was not safe. So, I ended up having to get a new stackable unit that works together and can be bolted to each other. It wasn't a good situation all around. I've used 2-10 for several, different things and I haven't had any issues but this time around, I had some issues and I wish they would be more receptive to my situation. Anybody that came out could tell you that and now, I'm out-of-pocket more so than I would have liked.

The realtor gave me the number to call and I called up, told 2-10 there was a problem and they worked pretty quick and gave me a number to call the plumber.

I called 2-10 for a claim for the air conditioner and it was very good. The only downside is, and I understand the limitations on how long it takes to get approval, that it kinda dragged out longer than necessary. And living in Florida with a crazy heat wave that was going on and no air conditioning was very uncomfortable. The contractor looked at the unit on a Thursday and within 10 minutes, he had his diagnosis. Later on that evening, the company submitted it to 2-10 and it started getting processed the next day. But the company didn’t hear back from 2-10 until the following Thursday. It was almost a full week before the approval process. But the contractor had great service and attitude. The tech was very knowledgeable and professional. In the long run, the unit got fixed and I'm appreciative for that and overall, I'm satisfied with 2-10’s service and what they provide.

That was the air conditioner in the upstairs part of the house where all my bedrooms are and it was starting to get hot. It went out and 2-10 kept sending people whose shop is two hour away from where I live. Three weeks went by and my air conditioner still wasn't fixed. We were sleeping on an air mattress downstairs and they weren't really doing anything to fix the problem. So, I just ended up coming out of pocket and buying a new one and telling them to forget about it.
2-10 needs to get some new contractors. Another time, my hot water heater went out in the middle of winter and it took them almost a month to get that fixed. I probably won't renew with these guys. I might shop around and see what I can find. While customer service reps at 2-10 are nice and helpful, I won't be recommending this company to anyone.

The air conditioning stopped totally and I did that claim over the phone. The contractor was able to come out within a day or so, and they did a really good job. They kept me informed. They actually had to come out once and they fixed the problem. The issue was a compressor and they put something on to help it but the compressor itself was bad. So even though the problem was fixed for about two hours, all it was was a band-aid for a part that was going out. So they had to come back out that same evening and they realized that the compressor was gone. So then they had to contact 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty and that was the longest process – waiting for the part to be approved. But everything is good now.

I was impressed on 2-10's services when I called them initially. Then the first time I called them for a claim, I had a problem with an oven and they said that the company would reach out to me to schedule everything. They discussed my deductible and I said okay. The next day, I realized there was problem with my refrigerator as well so I reached out to them and the lady at 2-10 said they were gonna put everything on one ticket so that way, I would save a 100-dollar deductible. That was awesome. Then the company came out and they were unbelievable. I actually spoke to the people at the company to tell them they did a nice job and how easy it was to deal with them.
The only other thing is that the hot weather is here and I just recently turned the AC on to find out that it wasn’t working. I called 2-10 up and bang, they set me up with a guy. That was funny because the lady was typing the order in then she asked me if I had any questions and I had a couple of questions but on the other line, the AC guy was calling me already. So it was good. It was quick turnaround. It was as if the lady had handed him the phone and said, “Here, take this call.” The guy said that everything is done through the internet and he had it there on his computer. That was awesome. I’m very happy with 2-10.

2-10 is very good. I've been with them for at least 7 years and I’m gonna keep them for a long time. I’ve really liked their service. At 2-10, it's always positive with the claims reps and submitting a claim is very easy. I just give them a call, and they get in contact with the contractor. Pretty soon, the contractor is over here repairing the issue. The time to get someone scheduled out after I make my claim varies. Sometimes, it’s the same day. Sometimes, it’s the next day. And in one case years ago, it was maybe two days. But it’s never been a problem. I just give them a call back and they’re right on top of it.
The last time with the contractor was very good. They gave me what I needed. It was an air conditioning problem and though the repair wasn't pretty fast, they did take care of it. There’s only been one contractor, and that was years ago, that was not very professional. But everyone since then has been very exceptional as far as their service, availability, and courteousness.

We submitted a claim to 2-10 online and got a call the next day. That was pretty easy. The guy came over the day after that and then the water heater was in about three days after that. It was good working with him. When he came and took a look at the water heater, he was here for about five minutes then he said the water heater definitely needed to be replaced. He was really kind and he was good at communicating with us. He was in touch with us four times, telling us he was coming over or calling to ask if he could schedule an appointment. Then once we had the water heater, he called to confirm another time. The experience was pretty simple overall. That was good.

Submitting claims to 2-10 Home Buyers is generally pretty easy. I normally do it online because the customer service line takes a little while to get through. Then, it's kinda seamless from there. With the contractors, some are better than others. It's the luck of the draw who they send. Sometimes they're great and sometimes they don't seem like they wanna do too much. I have called people out for the same issue. One person said it couldn't be fixed and the next person that came spent five minutes and had fixed it.

After escalation, I was contacted by Hannah with the home office and she was phenomenal. She called on schedule, followed up with the contractor, assisted me with a temporary cooling solution, and maintained contact until we verified the issue was resolved.
I also had a pleasant experience today with Nate ** in the Claims Mgmt Team.
My most recent experiences with 2-10 have been substantially better than the first few experiences with them and their contractors. It shouldn't have to take being escalated to the highest team before good customer service is delivered but I'm glad I finally received the service I'd been requesting with a "superb" touch.
I'll see how the remainder of the contract goes and if all is well, I will definitely consider renewing for a year to give 2-10 another chance.
Original Review: May 31, 2019
I've had nothing but horrific experiences with 2-10 and their "trusted service contractors". These contractors are the most unprofessional, unknowledgeable, inconsiderate contractors ever. I've had one contractor (A&S HVAC & Home Maintenance) come out and have not a single idea as to what my issue was. The contractor had to call someone else for them to tell him what was wrong! And they STILL didn't get it right. He then Lied to 2-10 saying it was improperly wired and tried to change his resolution to something more expensive but something that would've been covered by the warranty but they of course refused due to his initial diagnostic. He said the furnace didn't come on, it worked FINE once I used 'em. Heat and he claimed all I truly needed was a different thermostat. But not ONCE did he address my heat pump using heat, which was the issue. The heat pump would fail.
I requested a second opinion (Adanac Air) who falsely claimed I stated that I wanted to use my gas furnace instead of my heat pump which in fact is what he advised me to be a resolution when it was truly a fluke for not identifying an issue with the heat pump! Of course, he never followed up! Why? Because 2-10 still denied the claim due to the first diagnostic. So why would they even let a second company come out? To waste my time.
I also had a plumbing issue and 30 days after the contractor came out, the issue came back but 2-10 wouldn't honor the resolution due to them not honoring camera inspections. What does this company do?? I scheduled yet another appointment but this one for AC. The service contractor contacted me TWICE to confirm the appointment, then I find out I've been assigned a new contractor on the day of my expected appointment AND the new person is!!!! Adanac Air. I REFUSED to let them come back out and IGNORE diagnosing my issue.
I called 2-10 to inquire further and they claimed Resultz First (initial contractor who confirmed twice) DECLINED my appt due to being overbooked!! HOW UNPROFESSIONAL!!!! How can a company deny an appt after confirming twice and deny it on the day of the appt!!! I waited THREE DAYS for NOTHING!!! It's been 4 days since I requested someone and now I'll have to WAIT more days for someone to contact me to schedule another 2-4 days out AFTER they contact me (who knows when that'll be!) and it's already the weekend! 2-10 trusts unprofessionals, they are unprofessionals, and I will NEVER use this warranty company again in this life or the next.

When I first tried to file a claim 2-10, I called them on the phone and it was easy. But the contractor's timing was awful. The first time, he told me that he was gonna be here between 4:00 to 6:00. He didn't get to my house until 8:45 PM when I was putting my kids to bed. But I still made him do whatever he needed to do. Then, he had to come back and he told me that he was gonna be here between 11:00 AM to 3:00, which was great. I left work early but he didn't get to my house until 6:30 PM. And on both times, they never called. They just showed up. I don't have an issue with 2-10, they're great, but they need to work on the vendors that they choose.

We called 2-10 when the central air system stopped cooling but the first person who was supposed to come out never came out. Then the next couple of guys they gave us came out and fixed it but it went back into the same mode where it stopped cooling. Someone came out after Memorial Day to fix it and that was when it was fixed the first time. But that same night, it went down. I gave him a call but he hasn’t been able to make it back out. I’ve been calling to find out if they’ll be able to come back out and take a look at it again to see what the situation is, and it has almost been a total of a week now. It’s so hot and I have a five-year old and with him being in the house with the heat, it is starting to get to him. I’ve also called back to 2-10 for three days to see if I can have something done but it keeps going to the automated system and I haven’t talked to anybody after that.
But this is the first time I've had difficulty. I've had 2-10 since 2016 and the claim is handled pretty quickly. The reps take care of it. 2-10 does their job. It’s just the people that come out. I always prefer that if someone comes out and then they can’t get back to you the next day or the day they say they can, they should at least give you some type of heads up. The communication with the people who are fixing the houses and appliances should be a lot better. Still, I’ll recommend 2-10 to other people.

I have a continued coverage for a year with 2-10 but I’m still in the process of an actual claim on my AC. I submitted it over the phone because there was a question I had that couldn’t be answered online and the process was very easy. The contractors that they sent out here have been pretty knowledgeable and very friendly. I feel like they were considerate because it was very hot here. The AC went out last year and another one went out this year, so I had two different contractors and they both did the job adequately. So far, I’m very pleased with 2-10 and it seems like they got right on it each time. It also seems that it was only the contractors and the ordering of parts that I needed to wait for, but it was immediate. When I had a need, they were right there.

The rate for my warranty with 2-10 has been going up every year. So I'm trying to figure out what options I have with that. For now, I just stay with them because every time the renewal comes up, I just pay it. Unfortunately, we haven't had to use the warranty too often. I am gonna be calling them to find out if they'll allow me to renew at a lower rate. Because there's a lot of other home warranty companies out there that have great reviews that are quoting me a lot less than they do.
Recently, our water heater went out and in the process of that, two things happened. One is the company that they contracted with came out and said, "Oh, yeah, your water heater's bad. We need to replace it." They ordered a new piece. It came in and then they had some type of issue with one of the employees. He couldn't come out and help install it. So they had to push it back almost a full week. I said, "You already have the diagnosis. You already have the part. If they can't get the people out, why can you not subcontract it out to a different company to come out and install it?" And they said, "Well, in order to do that, we have to send out a whole new contractor. And then they have to decide if there's something wrong with it. And then they have to submit the claim." I thought that was ridiculous.
I get it if that's just how they do things and it is what it is. But it's not a very good system to have. If you already have the ability to have another company come do it, just contract them to come do it if one company can't. They made it into an issue like it just wasn't something that was possible. So that bothered me. It didn't help the fact that I still had young kids that needed to take showers and we had no warm water. So that aspect of it was frustrating. In addition to that, I don't know who's fault it is, and I haven't followed up yet, but they told me I was getting one water heater, and then a completely different one got installed in my house.
I don't know if I got a better one or a worse one, but I was a little bit frustrated because the one that I was told I was getting, I did not end up getting. But other than that, making the claim is fairly simple. I just go online and it takes less than five minutes. I haven't had any major issues with the people that they've sent out. I had one where he just didn't respond, so they sent out somebody else. Everybody who's ever come out for any of our calls has been good. The first guy we ever had to come out was for a blown water line behind our fridge and he was phenomenal. He was so nice, so helpful and was willing to do anything he could do to help us out. So that I really enjoyed.

The ice maker stopped working and the spout in the front wasn't working either. Though for that it took a couple of weeks to get parts, the people who came in to fix that were very nice and they cleaned up after themselves.
More recently, we had no light or electricity in the living room area and down into one sidewall. The problem was that there was a break in the line in the attic somewhere.

I’m a Realtor, so I tell everybody about 2-10. When I first bought my house, I had 2-10 for 10 years or so and then I didn’t have it, and then I've had it again for about four years now. My company had a rep that came to see us all the time. I was very familiar with her and the convenience of getting people signed up. I've had good experience with my customers that have used 2-10, so it was the only way to go. There are others on the market, but I've had good success with 2-10. I feel comfortable using it.
I call when I submit my claims and that is frustrating because I see on the internet that if you don’t have the number handy, it wants you to just log in, and I really wanna speak to a person. So, that part has bothered me a little bit, but eventually I get a hold of somebody and that is great. I like the fact that when I make a phone call, I get a hold of somebody. And I like the convenience of being able to call and the person on the other end of the line is very compassionate and concerned. That is very important because even though my problem can’t be solved right then, I've had good expectation on the other end of people giving me comfort because they sound like they care. It’s not their problem, but they do connect and they do make you feel like they are concerned. I had a really bad contractor two weeks ago. But you can call 2-10 and they make things better.

They said they would cover up to 200 to 250 and then I would have to pay the difference which turned out to be 80 bucks.

I called 2-10, but they told me not to call 2-10. They said, “We got 30 days, so call us back in 30 days.“ It never did come on. So I called 2-10 back and they sent the other man. That man would not leave my house until he made sure my house was cool. They kept taking the temperature and someone said they would wait till it gets to a certain temperature before they would leave.
I’m gonna call them back though. They fixed it, but I think in one of the rooms, air is not coming through good enough which can be a little hot in one room. For the other part, he told us that if it didn’t work, call him back ‘cause if it didn’t, he still had some new unit or will do something after so many days. But so far, it’s still working.

When I purchased my home, 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty came with it. I just went ahead and renewed it with them and I've been with them for around two and a half years. The process to submit a claim is not difficult. They contract somebody and the contractor would set up an appointment. But the wait between the contractor and going back and forth with the contractor and 2-10 can be a headache sometimes.
The first time I had a claim with them, the contractor was fairly in a reasonable time. The second time, which was for a washing machine, a contractor came out in a reasonable time, but to repair my appliances took about three months. The holdup was a part. They explained to me that the circuit board had to be made and that was what was taking so long. Supposedly, the part was on order, then it became backordered, and then they said they had one, but then they ended up not having one. It took about three months to get it in and that was very frustrating for me because I have three kids and we have to wash clothes. I had to go to a laundromat and I have a newborn at the time. It was very difficult for three months.
Also, the claim with the central air conditioning was terrible for me because there was a lot of back and forth. During that time, we had up to 90-degree weather and I had no way to cool the house. It was miserable in here. Also, as far as customer service, the contractor was terrible because they would never answer the phone. It would go to voicemail and I would leave a voicemail but majority of the time, there wasn’t a callback. That’s the only downside about the contractor. The process took two and a half weeks. If it wasn’t as hot as it was, it would have been tolerable. Other than that, as far as politeness, with 2-10 and when the contractor reached out to me, they weren’t rude.

I called 2-10 and nobody there really knew how for me to get reimbursement for the toilet we purchased. So, I just said, "Forget it”, and then he took off. That time, we paid $100 for that guy to walk in and say that we needed to replace our toilet. He didn't even remove it or do anything.
Another time, we had to have our AC worked on and 2-10's contractor replaced the coil. But then, we're still having trouble with our AC. I made further calls to 2-10 but there is still a language barrier. Furthermore, we can't get a supervisor.

It's real easy to submit a claim to 2-10. I prefer to call them. I think it is a little easier. Most things I do online but actually calling is just so fast. They pick up almost immediately. The issue is that the contractors come out and look at the issue first then they come out and do the repair later. I called 2-10 for a water heater claim on Monday and there was a pretty quick turnaround. I liked that 2-10 put in the emergency status but the company didn’t really recognize it too much. They came Wednesday to look at it and then came mid-day Friday to actually do the installation. It wasn’t unreasonable at the time. But when you run out of hot water, you don’t want to wait the whole week. We had a one-week-old so it was kind of rough.
It's a general thought that when a water heater leaks, you replace it. There's no fixing it. But he came out, looked it, said, "Yup, you need to replace it," and basically left. I was like, "I told you it needed to be replaced." He could have been a little faster. It felt like the contractor felt pretty secure in having 2-10's business. So it's like they would come when they would come. But it wasn’t the worst experience. There was a little bit of wasted time there but that was the biggest thing I've had. I've had mostly very small things. I just wish 2-10 would vet their contractors a little bit more, look at higher reviews and see what people are saying about them. If you look this contractor up, they're rated a 2-star. It's not great.
There was also once where a claim was put in but I had to follow up a couple of times with certain larger orders and I called the contractor out on it. Something else a contractor did was tell me they put in something with 2-10 but I called 2-10 and they hadn’t put it in at all. So they lied to me to keep me placated. But 2-10 called them directly at that point and tried to verify what was going on. The contractors are generally lackluster and they're all different businesses. But they get the work done. The water heater, for instance, has been great since the repair. The contractor did the work fine. It was just going between them and 2-10 and then the constant calls. The 2-10 personnel themselves are really great too. I wouldn't deal with 2-10 too harshly. They've been fine and I'd like to have them in my pocket just in case something happens.

2-10 did their job like they were supposed to. They were very nice. But the contractor was irresponsible and did whatever he wanted. He came out, didn’t even do like five minutes and said, “This is our lunchtime. Let me get your credit card to take the $100.” 2-10 said they couldn't find another contractor so I totally understand. They already sent some parts to the guy and he told me, “As soon as I receive the part, I’m gonna come and fix the air conditioner unit immediately.” I called them, they called him, and he said, "It will be another two to three weeks."
I had to ask 2-10 if I can get a guy. I said, "Just send me the check, whatever you guys approve, and I’ll just pay the rest out of my pocket." So, that’s what ended up happening. I got a guy that came in the next day. He came and fixed the unit, and it’s functioning and working excellently. Everything’s taken care of. I'm very satisfied with 2-10 and I would recommend them to a friend.

It was really easy to submit a claim with 2-10. I did it online and the contractor that came out did a great job. They were really good, knowledgeable, kind and respectful. We still ended up paying about $800 out-of-pocket, which was a little surprising, but it could have been double that. Plus the experience with 2-10 was fast.

I’ve had coverage with 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty for two years and they have been great to work with. I’ve had zero difficulty in submitting claims. One day, my air conditioner would not come on and I called them. They immediately dispatched a contractor in a day or two. The HVAC guys were prompt. They got in contact with me and scheduled, at my convenience, when they could come out. The timing was fine and the guy came out and had a look. He was very nice, polite and professional. He determined that it was an electrical issue with the electrical panel. The electrical service was not providing enough power to the AC unit. Then he left, and the electrical company came.
2-10 gave me the name of an electric company and I called them. We couldn’t get anything scheduled for 14 days and because it was a sub panel and potential issues, they called 2-10. They said that it was their earliest appointment and if we needed to call them back, we could do so. We could also call 2-10, who would help us out with another electrical company. They had no problem with it. I called 2-10 back and I told them what was going on, and they hooked me up with another electrical company, which came out by the end of the week. It was a few days, so it was great. They determined the problem were the sub panels in the house. They took care of everything. I would recommend 2-10.

Everything went just wonderful. The plumber that came was very efficient, very quick and very good at contacting us and following up. And then, there was a little problem.

2-10 was purchased at the time that I bought the condo and I've been with them for a year. Some of the contractors that 2-10 has sent were large businesses and they knew the game pretty well.

We are so dissatisfied with our home warranty experience. 2-10 does everything it can to get out of covering your claim. Our A/C went out at the end of the summer. It took weeks to get a repairman and then the one they sent had ** scabs all over his body. He was so scary, I would not let my daughter be at the house when he came. He eventually just stopped coming and another, nice young man came. 2-10 sent a replacement coil that was nowhere near the correct size, expecting him to refit it - of course, on his own time. When he refused, we had to wait another several weeks for the right part to come in. By the time it was all back in place - more than a month later, the weather had changed and we never got a good test of the repair.
Now that it is springtime and we have hot temperatures again, the system is right back where it was, freezing up again. 2-10 contacted the contractor, telling him they expect him to fix it. He told us they never give them the parts or time to do the repairs correctly. When they told us we would have to pay another $100 claim fee to a new contractor and wait days until they could come, we decided to cancel our 2-10 warranty and go with a real contractor. With >90 degree days for the rest of the week, we don't want to mess around with another incompetent contractor. It may cost more, but not in irritation. Having a home warranty kept us from getting a reliable contractor to fix the problem right the first time. We will never go the home warranty route again.

I’m fortunate enough to have used them only twice and in the middle of one of those experiences now. 15 to 20 minutes phone calls. No easy way to communicate via email or secure message. My second claim on a central AC unit was due to smoke coming from the unit throughout the house. Was weeks before an HVAC tech made it out, first contractor never responded requiring a new one be sent, same pattern I saw about 10 months ago when reported unit not cooling effectively. The motor burned up, so I have diagnosis. Call warranty company, they need me to wait for them to assess diagnosis they don’t have yet. I had it in my hand, could fax or email to them.
Lady I talked with seemed dismissive and kept repeating script, always repair units vs. replace. Repairing my unit apparently will require removing a wall to get to the panel needed... so not happening. I asked about options to take estimated repair costs and pay to me to help reduce cost of just replacing the unit (a good option for us both since they just had me Renew for another year and would be on the hook for whatever breaks on it next). Not asking for thousands of dollars, just a few hundred (far less than I paid for this warranty). She was dismissive, repeated script and when I voiced concerns about the this being worth what was paid she repeated a line from script about repairing always being preferred and frustrated I asked to cancel the extension I just made 4 weeks ago. She’s clearly not concerned about that and I transfer into what after a 5 minute wait a voicemail where I left my info and Request and complaint.
Maybe other warranty companies are better, this one is really not worth it. I get the payment and repair policy, but the delays getting diagnosis and indifference to your home being uncomfortable (or worst when hotter outside) is unacceptable. Knowing it’s 2 weeks before you even get a diagnosis and then they have a review period, I’m sure will insist on tearing out a wall at my expense and so on makes it worth nothing to me. Maybe if they acted like they cared or would be flexible even slightly I could see some value here.

First off it's $100 PER visit!! This is the first thing you need to ask. This is an outrageous price!! I had a home warranty where it was $25-50/visit depending. I put in my request yesterday for my AC that broke and my disposal. I called the AC company they referred me to today -- didn't come into the office until 9 am. They can't come out until tomorrow while temps are 100 degrees! We are melting and have a child and dogs. So no big concern there for 2-10. Called the plumbing company. They put the work order in and they have NO RECORD of my work order.
I already regret having this home warranty and do not plan on renewing unless things turn around big time. I will update for every single work order for I think companies that are bogus should be shut down. Get your act together and TAKE CARE OF THE CUSTOMER. I have now been on hold for 10 minutes to try and find out where my work order is for the disposal!

The homeowners we bought our house from got 2-10 for us. They paid the first year warranty and I gotta renew it this month. I found it easier to do a claim on the phone. You talk to somebody and tell them. I do most of my stuff online but their website is kinda confusing and navigating is not as easy. We had an air contractor that was not very professional but I contacted 2-10 and they set me up with somebody else right away. I haven't had any issues after the repairs and everything has been great. I have recommended 2-10 to new home buyers.

We've had 2-10 for almost a year now, but we are not renewing with them. We’ve had a couple instances where I’ve called and I’ve talked to people. We have had one garage door claim, where the springs broke, so I couldn't get out of my house. But there was a timing issue, so the contractor wasn't gonna be able to get out there. Then, we had sump pump failures, and I’m in the Kansas City area, and we’ve had 18 inches of rain. When I called 2-10, we had two inches of water in the basement and they said they might be able to have somebody out in 48 hours. My furnace could've been ruined if I just allowed that water to come out. So time is of the essence there. But 2-10 has a timeliness issue, especially with critical things. When I have water pouring into my basement and then somebody tells me, “We’ll try to get with you within the next 48 hours,” doesn't cut it because if I had actually waited, it could have ruined so many more things.
With the air conditioner claim, 2-10 did okay with that. I wasn't too terribly disappointed. At first, they had a Real Estate company that had some side-business for air conditioning come out. I was told they would be contacting me some time through close of business tomorrow. I called 2-10 back at 2:00 and I told them that I didn't understand why they were sourcing somebody that was a Real-Estate company to come look at my things. I talked to this lady, and she said that was messed up, so she changed it and sent out somebody new.
I live in Linwood, Kansas, and the people that 2-10 sourced to come out and do an assessment of the air conditioner were from Blue Springs, which is literally over an hour away. So I sat there and clarified to the rep that there was nobody within half an hour of where I live that can do an assessment of the air conditioner. She said she would look again, and that there was somebody within three miles. But the Real Estate number that they had was a computer company. It wasn’t even the right number. So, 2-10 sent out an electronic notification to a company that effectively doesn't even exist. It was real comedy of errors that makes you just don’t wanna be doing business with 2-10.
We had them look at the furnace as well, and the heat exchanger. I’m out of town on business back then but I did get a picture of it where the heat exchanger was ruined as well. The tech said it would have been red-tagged to where we cannot use it because of so much carbon monoxide and it leaked out. So, not only did we lose our air conditioner, we also lost our furnace. But by the time I knew about it, they already had my furnace hauled away.
Once the air conditioning guy submitted the information to 2-10 about all the stuff that needed to be replaced and what was wrong, he said it was toasted and it was not worth the cost of it to replace. 2-10 had to go talk to somebody else. Two days later, I told them the maximum that they were gonna give me for this was $1500. I asked them if they could give me that money. The rep asked his boss about it and then he came back and he told me they would cut me a check for $1090. Once we got that approval, 2-10 sent the check promptly, and that part was great.

2-10 was purchased for me when I bought my new home which I've been in for about nine months. They're very apt to tell you something might not be covered. The very first time I called them, they told me, "It's probably not gonna be covered." The second time I called them for another problem, they said, "Some things may not be covered." I didn't particularly like that. It was more about, "You might get a bill for what gets done," as opposed to saying, "We'll send someone out there to take a look at it and find out what's going on."
First time, it cost me $100 and 2-10 didn't do anything but take $100 out of my pocket. I had just bought my house and the AC wasn't working like it was supposed to. I was told by my realtor to call the warranty company if something didn't work, and 2-10 told me it was not covered. If they're gonna give a home warranty with the purchase of a home, there should be no waiting period or they should send someone out to confirm everything is working properly before they offer coverage.

We had 2-10 when we first bought our house and we extended it. We’ve had 2-10 on the house that we live in going on eight years. Then, we have two rental properties and we have home warranties on those. Last year, the AC unit outside the house gave us issues and a technician came out. He said it needed to be replaced and he was going to notify 2-10. From there, we heard back that they weren’t gonna replace the unit outside. They were just gonna replace the compressor on the inside, which was the main piece. Even at that point, the technicians were shocked that they would put a new compressor in a unit that was 20 years old.
A year from then, the compressor acted up and 2-10 said the same thing that the technician said. The compressor has gone bad and the outside unit needs to be replaced. He will report it back and 2-10 should be putting in a new one. A couple of days later, we heard back that they were not gonna replace it but they were gonna replace the compressor for the second time. That threw us through a loop. So, we were starting to get concerned with that. They did what they ended up doing in replacing the compressor.
A week later, our AC froze so, we had to call again and have somebody come back out to see what the issue was. We were calling the company, R & S Heating and Cooling Solutions, for over a week without a response, and we could not get anyone to call us back and give us a date and the time when they were coming to fix the unit. We had to call multiple times every day. Finally, my wife called from a different number and they happened to pick-up, and she was able to get them to come out, but it’s almost like we had to be sneaky to try to trick them in answering our calls. That was annoying but they were nice once they spoke to us and came. They finally came back out and fixed the leak but it took about a week.
At one point, even 2-10 was saying they were gonna send us a whole different company and start all over. We have a newborn in the house and a three-year old. It was just too much. We told them not to do that. We had this issue before. It was an ongoing thing which lasted all summer before it initially was fixed and so, we felt like this was gonna happen again to us if we switch companies. It was not a good experience.
The AC is working now but our fingers are crossed it doesn’t go out on us. It just keeps giving us problems. It’s probably gonna go out on us again. The technician originally said that if he would replace the compressor, he didn’t know how long it was gonna last, which was why we were frustrated with 2-10. They did not replace the whole unit outside, two technicians told us that it needed to be replaced, but went about fixing until it can’t be fixed anymore. We’ll just wait for it to break down again. I have someone coming out to one of the rental properties today to fix stuff. We use the warranty but the headache one would definitely be our AC unit. Also, it’s difficult to submit a claim on the phone. You’re on hold for a very long time.

2-10 was recommended to us and we’ve been with them for almost a year. My wife submitted the claim for the dishwasher by phone and she had a lot of interaction with the rep. They went back-and-forth around the decision to either cut a check to replace the appliance or to repair the part and to try to come up with a reasonable solution. The service contractor was great. We had a little communication issue around the timing for him to make the delivery but it was not a negative experience. We followed up with the appliance provider and they responded immediately. He was very through and very helpful in getting the appliance installed correctly and working properly.
2-10 uses a lot of re-manufactured parts and they tend to end up preferring to repair as opposed to making a replacement. When you look at the total cost, sometimes, it might be less expensive for 2-10 to actually replace the appliance. So, it’s almost like you have to negotiate with them to get them to do a replacement on something that they may end up having to repair again and incur additional expenses. The dishwasher was a good example. The replacement was very close to the cost of repair so, we got it replaced.

I submitted the claim to 2-10 online and it took me a minute to figure it out because I’m not super computer savvy, but once I figured it out, it was totally easy. There was a little bit of miscommunication between technicians. The first technician that came out diagnosed the issues and said that my compressor wasn’t working but couldn’t initially identify why hot air would blow out whenever I turn my thermostat to cool. The technician and I, working together, discovered that the reason that was happening was because my thermostat was also damaged and was turning the heat and air on at the same time. So, it was kicking heat on which was why super hot air was coming out of the vent, which totally baffled us.
When the second technician came out this morning to do the repair, he had no idea that was the case. So, the first technician didn’t communicate that either to them well or something was lost in translation. I had to tell them that the thermostat was also damaged and they ended up having to relocate it. I did a little bit of drywall repair, which wasn’t a big deal and was totally worth it for being able to have AC now. The technicians weren’t all that great in communicating to us what exactly they were doing. I do building maintenance and construction so, I kinda had an idea what they were doing, but as far as time frame and stuff like that, we didn’t know what was going on most of the time. Other than that, everything else was great. If they didn't have to wait so long for the part, I’m sure it would have been done way sooner than it was.

However, when their first contractor got out to my location after 36 hours of filing the claim, he couldn't fix my problem.
So, 2-10 had to get another contractor out and they did so a week later. That company took several weeks to replace the whole system. Still, they were very good and worked through the heat. They weren't expected to but the installers decided so. It was about 140 degree in our attic and they were working in there for hours.

The contractor was very professional and he did a great job. We felt good about our experience with 2-10.

2-10 was recommended to us. We bought the house in December and we've had them for six months. Submitting a claim has been relatively painless. I spoke to a rep when I filed one for the AC and it was very straightforward with the rep. There were some issues with the supply chain as far as getting the part it was no fault of 2-10 or the maintainer that came to fix it.

I had a water heater fail, and I called 2-10 and got a new one. The process was fine. The only thing is the water heater failed on a Friday, so I had to go without hot water until Monday. And I was told by the plumber that the lack of hot water wasn’t considered an emergency, so I had to wait for a business day. They said if I had no water, that would be an emergency, and they would come out to me on Friday night or Saturday. So, that annoyed me.

I called 2-10 and told the rep what was going on, and they pretty much told me that they were gonna get somebody in my area to come and look at it. Submitting a claim to 2-10 and getting everything through was quick and painless. The contractor was nice and friendly. When the tech came out, he told me what was wrong, and then submitted everything and ordered it. It sucked that I had to wait to get everything done because of how hot it was. But overall, I didn’t have to do much, so it wasn’t bad. I would recommend 2-10 if anybody ever asked.

I've been a customer of 2010 since 2001 when I first built my house and I maintained the warranty coverage with them for almost 19 years. There are other options, but I had had good experience, the price seemed reasonable, and they offered to some level the coverage that I needed. And up until this time, my experience in submitting claims with them were great.
Recently, I called their 1-800 number and I told them the problem. They assigned me a work order number and it went downhill from there. This is the first time I've had a bad experience with them and I was really shocked. So, my air conditioner went out on May 7th and I contacted them early on May 8th. Three days later, I saw the first contractor that they assigned the work order to. I know it could take a couple of days but when the technician came out, he let me know that he wasn’t a repair technician. He was a diagnosis technician. But I told him that I didn’t need a diagnosis. I needed someone to repair the AC. This was on a Saturday and at that point, my air had been out for four days. He said he'd have to go back to my company and they’d dispatch another team to come out and figure out what was wrong and repair it.
So, on Sunday, they were closed. On Monday, I never heard anything. Then on Tuesday, half of the day passed and I still never heard anything. So, I called 2-10 and at this point, it has been a week already. They let me know that they’ve never got the diagnosis report from the technician that came out. So, he never went back and wrote up whatever to send to 2-10 to determine what the insurance would pay for and what I would have to pay for. By then, I was sick because it was at 95 degrees and that was mother’s day week and my mom was here. I had to send her back home early because it was too hot. So, 2-10 said that they'd find another contractor that could do the work and I had to start the process over again.
With the second company they assigned my work order to said that I would not have to pay the $75 fee because I had paid it to the first one that didn’t do anything and didn’t respond. They assigned a new work order number, I got my confirmation email, and the company was supposed to call me within 24 to 48 hours. I waited three days and I never heard from the company. So, I called 2-10 again. I let them know that about the issue and that I have been trying to reach the contractor they gave me because I know they were busy and it was weird because the company name didn’t even have a voicemail that says, “You have reached XYZ HVAC.” It was like a personal cellphone number that have the sound of Verizon. So, I asked 2-10 to put me on hold and call this company number so they'd see what I was saying. It didn't even seem like a real business.
2-10's rep did that and when she came back, she said that she got the same thing. She said it was like a personal cellphone and it didn’t even mention the business name or who the business owner was. It just says, “Please leave a message.” So, I told her that it's been three days that they haven't responded and that was not gonna work. Once again, 2-10 said that they'd close out the work order, I wouldn't have to pay another fee, and that they've reassigned me to company three. At this point, I was concerned about the people that 2-10 are contracting to do business with.
But we've gotten progress now. The third company was assigned on May 15th and I finally got somebody who had a real company that really answered their phone. The guy came out and did a diagnosis of what he thought was the problem on May 16. He wrote up everything and sent it to 2-10. Then he was waiting on 2-10 to order the parts. So, the parts were ordered and they finally came in. He came to install them on Thursday, the 30th. We made arrangements for my husband and I to be home and the tech came at 10 o’clock that morning. He ran into all of his snack but he was at my house at 10:15 to after 6 o’clock.
But he had to come back the next because there was a part of the repair that he needed to get someone to help him with. So, he came back on the 31st with another gentleman and supposedly, the issue was fixed. In fact, I had air running on the 31st and we thought we were done. But I noticed that my air was running but it kicks on and off once it gets to the desired thermostat temperature. I wanna keep it at 75 but the air never cut off. By Sunday, I thought that my bill was gonna be crazy and I had to do something. So, I turned the whole unit off with my thermostat and even though it was on off, the air was still blowing. So, at that point, my system was running for two days straight, never turning off, and I had it on off.
So, I shut it down and my husband did it too. And even thought it's shut down, I'm still getting air off the vent. Something is not right, so I called the tech up and he said he’d be there first thing Monday morning to look at it. This was yesterday and he said that one of the parts that he had gotten was burnt out. We now know that he put a refurbished part in, not a new part, and I don't know how that happened. It was some kind of board that burnt out and he said he had to get a new one. He told us it could take two or three days and at this point, my husband is furious.
Someone called from 2-10 today to follow up on our repair and we let him know about this last problem, which they had no clue about. They said it could take until the next Monday to get this new part and that’s when my husband blew a gasket. So, the gentleman came back today, the last couple of hours, with a new board that’s supposedly gonna fix the issue. I'm hoping it was done. But it's been almost a month and to me, that’s so unacceptable.
I've always had good experiences with 2-10 but as an almost 20-year customer, AC is a common thing. They need to get me somebody that can fix it. With my last claim, I've been so patient. Also, some of the customer service reps I've talked to didn't seem to care that this was going on for weeks even though I told them what I was going through. All in all, this situation has made me second-guess the services that I expected from 2.-10 I understand they're out west and they have the contract, but I'm not sure of the vetting process that they used with this contractor and that makes me wonder who I'm letting in my house. The second one never called back or responded to the email, and 2-10 couldn’t get them. It made me feel creepy and I didn’t even want that person, whoever it was.

We’ve had 2-10 for two and a half years, which was when we bought the house and then, we just continued with it. I submit my claims over the phone and it is automated so, it’s fast. In my claim not quite two years ago, the original person they were trying to send out never contacted us, so we ended up going through somebody local. 2-10 was accommodating in that way and it was smooth.
One time, I had a wall oven that was a certain size and the replacement that was gonna be acceptable didn't it in the hole. But that was all they were gonna pay toward it. So, that didn't seem logical if I couldn't get one and it left me trying to find something else and just taking the buyout. That was a little frustrating. It took forever to get the oven taken care of. They continued to try to repair the part and rebuild the board. Then, they finally said that they were gonna have to replace it. I went two months without an oven, which was challenging. I get the steps that they need to take and that they don't wanna replace something right off the bat. It just seems like it took a long time but probably that’s just the process of the contractors. On hindsight, it’s better to just replace it right away and not go through the hassle and replacing all the other stuff.
2-10 just leaves the service up to the contractor that they dispatched. Once the people has come out, has figured out what was wrong and has diagnosed it, they would let 2-10 know about it. However, it would be nice to be alerted by 2-10 on what the contractors are doing, what the next steps would be and what to expect. I usually end up calling for status, and they would say that they have approved the materials and it would take five days to order it. So, I would just be sitting here and not knowing that if I hadn't called. An email or whatever is less cumbersome would be nice.

2-10 was cheaper and better compared to other warranty companies and when I submitted a claim for the AC issue, it went very easily. Sometimes, you gotta talk to somebody else to get things done but with 2-10, I didn’t have to complain or get to a supervisor. That was great. I just called and spoke to the representative. I got a call on the same day. It was on the weekend too. That was surprising. Then a contractor was out the next day. It took him a week to fix it but they had to find the part and since then, the AC has been running great. The contractor was really polite and nice too. They tried to help with what they could, given the situation. All in all, I was very satisfied. I will recommend 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty in a split second.

I had two claims with 2-10 and I think they can streamline things. The first problem I had was the toilet. I had to wait for somebody to come out, to get that 48-hour period before they show up, and they did. They looked at the toilet, and then they left. And then you get a call from 2-10, and then they tell me the toilet can't be replaced because of crystallization, and I'm like “Are you kidding me? I've only been here a couple of days. I didn’t crystallize.” So, I had to call my realtor, Michelle. She contacted some supervisor she knew because she does a lot of business with 2-10.
The plumber was back out and had the toilet replaced after Michelle spoke with somebody, who I think was a supervisor on 2-10's end. So, she sent an email, and then sent me a copy. That whole thing with the toilet took two weeks, which was aggravating. And then, the second claim I had to call in, and they gave a number of the vendor, and he showed up. I paid him the $100 like I did for the toilet. He showed up and said, “I can tell you right now, you're probably gonna need a new coil pack.” It was about $1,500. It was the big part. He said, “But 2-10 asked me to put Freon in here, do a pressure check,” that he did. It was real low. He thought there were leaks, and then they said, “But I'll put the Freon on. They want me to do it this way. So, I did it.” He wasn’t gone two hours and the temperature in my house really never got below 78, and it was 84 that day inside my house.
So I called back up 2-10, and they said, “Okay. We'll send the man back out.” He comes back out and looks at the part. He said, “Yup, it's what I thought it was.” He had to order it. That whole fiasco took two weeks and it was brutally hot in my house. It reached as high as 88 degrees. I called and spoke to about three people. One other lady was nice enough because I asked to speak to a supervisor and she tried about four times, but she couldn’t get through, and she said, “Look, I've got other clients I gotta work with. I can't really stay on the line. But I'm going to pass you in and just let it ring.” Finally, that lady spoke to me and said she couldn’t get me a number of a supervisor, but that she would pass the information in to whoever it was to get the part. I wasn’t left on the phone for 48 minutes to have somebody tell me they can't get me a supervisor. That’s crazy. I know there's a supervisor available somewhere.
I called back the man doing the air conditioning. Whoever called up 2-10 asked for the wrong part. At this point, I was just exhausted mentally and physically. I called up Michelle and I said, “Look, I'm sorry to bother you. I know it's been three, four months, whatever it's been, since I bought the house, but is there anybody you can contact on my behalf?” I explained everything and she contacted somebody at 2-10. Within a couple of hours, somebody from Colorado called me, apologized, said the part will be reordered again, and the air conditioning man will be in tomorrow. He came in the next day, fixed the air conditioning, and it's been working fine since.
When you've got enough COPD, you can't breathe as it is, living in North Carolina and you're in the middle of a heat wave, there's gotta be a way to streamline the claims process. There's gotta be a hotline number. And if you asked to speak to a supervisor, you shouldn’t stay on the phone for 45 minutes. That’s crazy. And I did. I stayed on the phone for exactly 48 minutes.
The work itself when it finally got done was quality work by the vendors. It was just getting approved through the insurance company to get all the stuff done that’s just a hassle. And then, I had to pay a cost that I wasn’t aware of besides the $100. I had to pay $170 disposal fee, and I didn’t know about that. I live on Social Security. And at that point, I was thinking, “Well, maybe somebody would at least labor that or something,” and they didn’t. But anyway, it took me all that time.

I had a leak at the bottom of my kitchen sink and I thought it was the faucet because there was a lot of water. I called a plumber to come to the house. Then, I called 2-10 Warranty to make sure that they were okay with having this contractor come in and do the work. The first representative said to go ahead and move forward, so I did. And then the contractor said he needed to get this money upfront and I said my warranty would be covering it.
I called back 2-10, got a separate representative, and talked to her for a few minutes. Then, I got both the representative and the contractor on the phone at the same time, on speaker. I wanted to make sure that everybody was on the same page, that I was clear in saying that I am given the contractor permission to do the work, and that 2-10 Warranty would do 100% reimbursement on all the stuff in the invoice. The rep said yes. I gave them the actual quote of 800 dollars and they acknowledged before I proceeded.
However, I got another follow-up about a week ago, saying that that process was not the right process, but I would still get reimbursed for all those that were done. It's a little bit confusing on the representative's side and it was definitely confusing on my side. I got acknowledgment from two representatives to make sure they both understood what I was saying. Other than that, everything else is good. All those difficult part of it is done and I've submitted my invoice to the customer support. Now, I'm waiting on the check.

They seemed very knowledgeable and friendly. It’s been very painless and the customer service has been excellent. So I’ve been happy and continued to stay with 2-10. Submitting claims was pretty easy as well. I ended up cancelling the one claim I submitted but it went real smoothly and they were able to get the electrician I needed. He contacted me but after talking, I figured it wasn’t really an electrical issue. It was more of a user-issue of some light bulbs. There was some weird connection that wasn’t happening with one of the can lights. I had replaced a bulb and it blinked on and off for about 24 hours. That was why I thought I should call the electrician but of course, right after I did that, it’s been doing fine. I haven’t had any other issues of turning on or off.

My experience submitting a claim with 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty was okay. I felt that mine was a different situation because my home has a split AC unit. So, explaining what was going on to an automated system wasn’t really helpful specifically. I ended up having two separate problems that Ready Heating and Air was able to take care of for me. I was a little bit discouraged at how long it took being that it was an AC problem in getting the authorization for parts to be consigned and shipped. It took close to a week and having no AC. I understand when I called, it was a Friday afternoon, so I knew there was gonna be some delay. And then it was coming before a holiday weekend, so I can only imagine the amount of volume. But I was discouraged that the solution took a week when parts could have been easily handled on the service provider’s part and then reimbursed instead of having consigned parts.
I work at a field that also deals with insurance and consignments, so I understand it’s part of the relationship there. But altogether, I was satisfied with the end result. But that was solely on the part of Ready Heating and Air. After the initial claim, I don’t think I heard anything from 2-10 at all about the part consignment, the work authorizations, or really anything. I ended having to reach across for a customer service rep because I had a split unit. And then, talking to the service rep about the coverage details and limitations was a bit frustrating. It was kinda like pulling teeth to have them tell me why I wouldn’t have coverage. It ended up being consequential damages.
My lower unit stopped pushing cold air and caused my upper unit to freeze over. Before we knew it, it ended up dumping out a lot of water onto my master bedroom ceiling. And so, that was what we were trying to communicate with them to make sure that things are being handled in an expedient manner. We had already gotten towels and tried to dry everything up, but once drywall gets wet, it’s wet. So, trying to get some understanding on why coverage was not provided for that was a bit taxing. But the lady that I spoke with was very professional. And as far as I could tell, to the best of her abilities, did a wonderful job at handling the claim and the interaction.
I kept telling her that I wasn’t trying to be difficult and I just wanted to find out why. I’m looking at either filing another claim for the water damage in my wall, which she didn’t tell me I could not do because of the nature of the damage. So, I ended up having to use my homeowners insurance rather than the home warranty for that because of the consequential damages. Even though I did what I could to mitigate damage, it had already been done. It happened overnight while everyone was sleeping. In the end, she was able to provide me with a satisfactory reason for that and was even able to point out the section/paragraph of the coverage document. Still, she wasn’t able to provide me that, which I thought was a bit unorthodox. But then again, she wasn’t able to do an outbound email portal, so I understand that.
The service contractor did everything they could to expedite the service. They even had to come back out because once the new pressure system has been in place, it actually blew out one of my other ducting in the bottom half of the house. And the service tech came out on a Saturday night after he did a full-day job in Montgomery. So, he had been on the road all day and still took the time to come out and make sure everything was right on his own time. He was fantastic.
He made this whole experience bearable because we’re talking about an Alabama summer of 100 degrees everyday. And having to wait a week and having them explain why parts aren’t in because they’re not consigned or they’re in process of being authorized and then delivered was very frustrating. I understand that in a warranty situation, you have to make sure that everything is being handled properly. But I think the expedited process should be something that should be more productive.
I understand that there are limitations that 2-10 has to go through, but I’ve had other friends and coworkers that have had similar situations. A lot of other different agencies have handled this. It’s AC. It’s occupancy standard, especially in the summer here in the South. My home was technically unoccupiable for five days, but we had to deal with it because of timeliness standards of 2-10.

I was really disgruntled and unhappy with the claims process. From the time I initiated the claim, it took about 3 weeks before any repair was done to my house. They had to wait for the parts to be delivered and no one ever contacted us. I had to reach out to 2-10 to figure out the status or when someone was coming out. I called the repair place and they said they had been trying to reach me. Whoever 2-10 is contracted to does not provide emergency situation because I had a pregnant wife at home and we couldn’t stay cool. The AC wasn’t cooling. I had the temperature set for 72, but it would not get lower than 76 degrees. We had the baby that following Saturday, and we had to come home, and again, the AC was not fixed.
They told me to try to go with somebody else. I had to go through another whole process of trying to get the work approved. 2-10 should have somebody on standby for emergency situations like that. I had no choice but to wait ‘til the contractor came and we stayed at a relative’s home for at least a day or two. With our kids, that was overwhelming. It wasn’t enough space so it was a real inconvenience for us. The repairs were at least completed but it's a $100 service call and after that I still had to pay additional $173 for some uncovered repairs. So, that defeated the purpose of the service call since we had to come out and pay more. Other than that, I'm pleased with the whole process.

My water heater blew up and initially my claim with 2-10 was fine. They sent a company out to evaluate the problem. But it wasn't the smoothest process because they didn't treat it like it was an urgent issue. The whole house was without hot water for about four days, rather than giving me the opportunity to go out and just buy myself, and then just reimburse me back end. I don't think I would work with 2-10 again because they just drag their feet every step of the process.
First off they told me, "We have 24 hours to send you somebody." But the first person that they chose bailed. And so then it was an additional 24 hours before somebody would come out and assess the problem, which I already knew the problem. But they have this weird situation where they had to have one of their broker people come out and make a diagnosis, like they're doctors, and then once they get the diagnosis then they make the process of ordering the new parts. They told me it could take up to five to seven business days to order the new part because they wanted to go and shop out the cheapest option. I get if that is what it's about. But at the same time what's the family to do?
And then they said they would cover everything for the install. But when it came actually down to it, they refused to pay for parts of connecting the hot and cold water pipes because they consider that to be modifications rather than part of installing. So, I ended up having to pay additional $180 out of pocket to the person that they selected to do the work because they denied it as part of the warranty that they were covering, which was insane to me.
The receptionist was fine. But the guy who did the work kind of did a half-ass job because one of the things he was supposed to do was connect the drip pan and drill the drip pan drain line outside of the room that the hot water tank was stored in, and he charged me to do that and didn't actually do it. So, he put the drip pan in with a direct line draining out to hit the floor in the same room that the original water damage occurred in, rather than run the line outside of the room as he was paid to do.

Our air conditioner compressor had broken and setting up a claim was very confusing because we were told that we didn’t have the coverage that we thought we did, and the vendor was given misinformation. It turned out that our services were covered despite what they originally told us. Eventually, it got straightened out and things got fixed. But we live in Florida and we were up in New York at the time, and it was a difficult situation to handle from a distance. The service people were great and they really advocated for us. The tech realized that the people at 2-10 were giving us the wrong information, so he pushed to make sure that we had the service that we were entitled to. But that shouldn’t have been his job. It should have been up to 2-10 to realize that they were mistaken. They had us down for a different policy other than the one we had paid for, so that was a faux pas on their end.

I made a claim one time on a Saturday before they opened and because they're on Mountain Time rather Eastern Standard Time, I had to do it through the automated system. But I was promptly called back. The contractor came right away that day because when I said it was leaking 100%, it had exploded in our garage. So, he was prompt to come but then, he said he could come back by Wednesday. I said, "But we're leaving Thursday of next week." He never indicated that he was coming back after that. It had to go through 2-10 for them to cover it. We were as quick as we could have been, and it was almost two weeks before he could come back out.
When I called back to see when he was gonna be able to come, he asked for us to contact the city to mark our water meter. We did that and he said, "I'll let you know." Then I called him back again and he said he had forgotten about us. Luckily, it was 90 and 100 degrees last week and the week before so cold showers were not horrible. Still, it wasn’t convenient.

That contractor never picked up the phone no matter how many times 2-10 and I called.
Then, they asked a different contractor to come. The contractor looked at the situation and submitted a request to 2-10 to install the new water heater. It was okay until then, but after that, this contractor was horrible. He left all the mess here and his workmanship was terrible. My bathroom was all flooded because he just left water all unattended and he left some wires uncovered. Also, he tried to extract money from me for transporting the water heater to my place. He said that those are uncovered expenses and I have to pay in order for them to install the water heater. I told 2-10 about it and they said that because he wants it, I gotta pay. 2-10 could have suggested somebody else. I had to pay $300 to this contractor in order to get my water heater fixed because it kept on delaying and delaying. I just wanted to have it fixed. Other than that, the water heater is working okay now and I'm getting hot water without any problem.

Our air unit stopped working last Saturday. We called immediately and a technician came out on Tuesday. His report was submitted first thing Wednesday morning. I have called every day for updates (because no one was communicating with me) and tried to be patient. I explained each time I called that it is 100 degrees here and I stay home with my kids. This is a big quality of life issue for us. Every person gave me the same response that they are "doing all they can." I trusted they were until Friday midday when I called to see if our part had come in. They said it was scheduled to be delivered the following Thursday.
Again, I asked if there was anything they could do to speed this up. They said that since the part had already been shipped, there was nothing they could do. I replied that I had told them in advance how important a timely repair was, to which they replied, that there was nothing they could do now that the part had shipped. I am incredibly disappointed and would not recommend this company to anyone. I could have had this fixed days ago if I didn't have to wait on all of their processing.

I submitted a claim with 2-10 over the phone for my dishwasher and that process was easy. The contractor came out, assessed it, and ordered the part but they never came back to fix it. The problem has been going for a month now and the contractor hasn’t called me back on it. They contacted me three weeks just for them to get the part.

There was a clog in the toilet and we used plenty of stuff that didn't work. It was hard to get appointments with 2-10 and so, I’m super disappointed. I called them up on Monday or Tuesday and then by Tuesday, 2-10 said no one could come until Friday. The toilet was stinky, so I had to call someone else. I ended up spending money out of my pocket for a same day appointment. I was unhappy. I paid them the $700 and then I paid $400 from my pocket. I don't know if 2-10 will ever reimburse or not, but I would try it.

I submit my claims to 2-10 online. I've also had to do it over the phone and the customer service is not great in comparison to other companies I normally work with. But it's not like what I expected when I got involved with a warranty company. Also, the response and working with the contractor is slower than what it should be. For instance, in this particular case, my issue has still not been resolved. Our first contact to 2-10 was the end of April and it will be my third visit about the same air conditioning unit. The AC quit cooling a day before yesterday. We just paid to have it completely filled with Freon, which cost me almost $250, and it froze up. Usually, the reason it freezes up is that it doesn’t have enough Freon in it. So, obviously, there’s a problem. The first time we can get a guy out to take a look at that equipment is June the 3rd.
Also, we’ve had different things fixed. They send the same workman out to look at it. We’ve had the compressor replaced and it still wasn’t cooling. We had another visit that we had to wait a week and a half to get a contractor back out here. He looked at it again, said that it needed a part to kickstart it when it stops so he came and replaced that part.
If you had someone that is contracted to come out and do the job, they should do some kinda follow-up and make sure that the work is right instead of us having to wait a week and a half every time it’s not right. They don’t even get back out to check the work that they did. We’re not their first priority. They’re doing other customers and we have to wait at the back of the line to come back to the front, which is ridiculous. I’m sure if 2-10 really cared about customer service, they could do something about that. I’ve had other issues with them and my overall impression is it can be a whole lot better, but in the end, I was glad that I had the insurance.

We had a 220-volt outlet in the laundry room that didn't work and there was no washer and dryer here that didn’t get picked up on our previous home inspection. When we went to fire it up, the wires were missing. So, the team that was sent out traced it down and found the wires and reconnected things. Now, we have a working dryer in our laundry room.
Submitting the claim went easily and the only question was whether or not it would be covered, and 2-10 said they were covered. The electrician that 2-10 sent out was very personable, knowledgeable and did a good job. He came out and took a look at what the situation was, and even worked through some adverse conditions, or very rough access to the attic. The other guys were able to climb up into the attic, over and under some other things, and figured out what wire should have gone where, and where the wires needed to be terminated. They went above and beyond and it was hot that day too. I would have liked to have known quicker that it was covered but we’re grateful for having 2-10.

I made a claim over the phone and I wasn't too impressed. I'd made claims several times before when purchasing other properties, so I expected that the person from 2-10 would be a little more knowledgeable about their offers, and that didn't happen. When we asked for them to come out and check out the washer dryer unit that we were having problems with, they said that if it's functional, they couldn't come out and look at it until it broke. That didn't make sense. I also asked if they could come out and check the HVAC because the season is changing and we wanted to make sure there's enough Freon, and they said they couldn't come out until it broke. He wouldn't make that phone call to request the service and I ended up getting a warranty with Sears. He has to be knowledgeable and a little bit more sensitive to first time homebuyers.

I’ve used my own contractor, because any of the contractors that are in network for 2-10 puts me at the end of their schedule. So, typically, if I wanna get serviced, it’s two to three weeks of wait. Also, I had a hot water heater that just went out, and to replace it with the like model, it was $1,700. And 2-10 offered me a buyout of $1,000. 2-10 said that it wasn’t their fault that their contractor was two weeks out, that they couldn’t do anything about that and that it was just kinda the way it went. And that’s easy to say when you’re on the other line and it’s not affecting you. But I had a brand new baby in the house, and we had no hot water. I would say, "We’d work with you a little bit more with contractor," or they would have contractors that would be available, with more than just one option. That would be nice.

I had 2-10 when we bought our house two years ago as recommended by our realtor. I had the warranty for the year and then we had let it drop. But recently they helped us sell my husband’s grandmother’s house and our agent was saying, “You should really look at getting it back.” And it has been worth it so far since they need to replace the entire ac unit for me. Normally, those things cost several thousand dollars. The people themselves has been great, but they also have some kinks in their system.
I originally put their service request through the website, and it was because both of my air handlers were having trouble. So I had somebody come out and look at both. Before they could complete the work, I had to call back in and get a second claim number because there was one separate for each unit. I didn’t even know I had to do that until the AC guys informed me. They couldn’t do it themselves. So I had to call in. That was kind of an inconvenience. I specifically listed two units when I put the ticket in online. Why didn’t anybody inform me or why wasn’t it split into two claim numbers at that time?
2-10 had our downstairs unit replaced, as well as the coil on the upstairs. And when they checked again there appears to be a leak somewhere in the line on the wall that wasn’t apparent when they first came in. It’s a smaller leak. So, I’m still trying to figure out how to get that done because the AC guy suspects that when we had our siding installed last year, somebody may have punctured the line with a nail. So, I’m also trying to work with the siding company
2-10 has to be the one to order the part and it takes longer. I’ve been without AC around a month. And from when I checked in with the AC guys at one point, they said that a part had to be reordered and that it was cancelled when they ordered it.

I don’t like 2-10's overall claim process only because they use off-brand providers. It’s just a bad process when one does business with people that have really low rating.

It’s never an easy conversation. It’s long and drawn out. I have to have an hour and a half to call them.
If a company comes out and does a bad job, there’s no process to fix it. There are some instances where you have to pay the deductible for another provider to come out, or they’ll call another low-rated company to come out. It has happened to me before where I’ve had bad experience after bad experience after bad experience because 2-10 is getting people that are really ranked at the bottom of the barrel. You’ll call a plumbing company and it’s just like a shadetree mechanic. I'm not even sure if some of these people are licensed. How they get on with 2-10 is beyond me.

It would ask me which system I was gonna submit a request for and when I would pick a system, it would have a list of things to submit for. Then, if the specific item that I wanted to submit a claim for wasn't in one of the options on their lists, it wasn't always clear how to submit my different claim.
When I would have to contact them via phone, it was a very frustrating phone system to go through. When I actually got a hold of a person on the phone, they were all very nice and helpful for the most part. Still, they should make the process a little easier to get a hold of a person on the phone when submitting or asking questions about a claim. I would have to go through the phone and choose options that I know would send me to a person, even though those are not the actions that I needed. Then, when I got to a person on the phone, sometimes I had to be transferred to the appropriate one.
They also told me that the contractor has 24 hours to contact me and that they're supposed to come out within 48 hours. But I had an issue once with somebody calling me when he was supposed to contact me in the first day or two. I contacted 2-10 back and they sent the claim to somebody different. Other than that, all the contractors who came out were good.
All in all, 2-10 wasn't great but they weren't terrible. They were just kind of indifferent. The warranty also served its purpose for what I needed for that year but I wasn't necessarily eager to renew with them. In fact, I hadn't renewed in any home warranty and if I were to renew again, I'm not so sure I would go with 2-10. I would pick somebody else.

I’ve had a horrible experience with 2-10. We tried contacting them. ‘Till now we’ve had several issues that have not been rectified completely. We’ve had out-of-pocket expenses that makes the cost of owning the home warranty essentially worthless. 2-10 has been useless. It’s been a waste of time. We’ve wasted our money.
We had a hot water heater replacement and we had two sinks that needed repair. We had to forego one of the repairs alone just to cover the cost of one sink repair. They wouldn’t cover the cost of replacing the water heater so we came out of pocket for that. Also, our HVAC has been serviced six times but we still don’t have a functional HVAC. We’re living in unfit living conditions and it’s 90 degrees in Georgia. They told us the first time they could come out would be the end of this month which is another two to three weeks away. We had first called in for service in April, and we’re talking about getting this HVAC repaired in June. It’s unacceptable. We have poured at least $500 into this HVAC already and it’s not been repaired yet. That’s probably more than the cost of the warranty itself. I’m in a position that everyday I’ve been off, I’ve been hounding companies and trying to get the right answer and the right things done.
The customer service is awful. When I call in and try to say, “Is there any way we can expedite this HVAC repair?” They say, “Sorry. Read your contract, we don’t have any promise or guarantee on the timing of your repair.” which is disgusting. They didn’t give any information. They didn’t answer any questions adequately. They charged us several occasions to visit and they said they could only reimburse one even though they’ve misdiagnosed. They sent out technicians that gave us the wrong diagnosis that led to this delay. When we told them there was a leak, the technician insisted there was not. We paid him and we’ve had to pay two other contractors over the weekend to give us emergency assistance. I would strongly recommend everyone to stay far away from this company for their home warranty. It is an excessive disappointment.

Hi Julie, we are concerned to learn that you are scheduled for service so far into summer. We appreciate you reaching out to us on Consumer Affairs. Our escalation team has taken over your claim, and an escalation specialist will contact you soon. We hope we can remedy your experience promptly.

Our home is an original build year of 1996 and with homes that are a bit older in age, it seems to be a more standard practice with home buyers to acquire a home warranty. We were using standard market practice of acquiring a home warranty at the time of purchase. The home seller selected 2-10. Submitting a claim with them has been convenient. It’s been simple and I like that 2-10 has the tendency to offer a voucher or a refund towards the replacement of the appliance. It's kind of leaving it at the discretion of the consumer. A home that’s old also has a tendency to have older appliances. So, that’s been a convenient feature of 2-10.
So going to the future, if I have to make a choice, that’s probably one of their market differentiators. And I would choose 2-10 almost exclusively because of that benefit of giving the consumer the option to replace appliances at their discretion versus having to go through a long deed of process of break-fix. We’ve had that experience with a different home warranty supplier. Every time that I had a problem with an appliance, it was not for a repair. I just opted immediately to replace the appliance, and that was really convenient. It saved a lot of time of having to go through and have someone come out and troubleshoot, and then essentially, wait to see if the appliance works.
I would like to see the voucher extend to every single appliance under the home warranty. So for example, I wanted the over-the-range microwave that I also wanted to replace to match the range that I selected to replace. There is nothing wrong with the microwave that was originally there. I just wanted it to match the room. So I didn’t had option with the microwave. I only had the option of having a technician come out. So in order to not falsify any information in regards to the microwave, I did not put any input for the microwave and I just kind of paid full price for the microwave. Other than that, 2-10 Warranty is a fantastic service. Our overall experience is very good.

When we bought our house, it was 15 years old and the appliances were probably 15 years old too. So, we thought we ought to get the warranty. We got one from 2-10 and we have them for two years now. The service was really good. You call in about a problem, you get somebody out, and it gets fixed. There’s no hassle and the process seems to be very smooth. Everyone’s always wanting to help which is not always the case like with a health insurance company. Their first thing is always deny then you got to go fight and all that kind of stuff. So, it was a breath of fresh air to have a company that stands by what they're selling. We don’t want stuff to break, but if it does, we’d like the assurance that it’ll get fixed on a timely basis, done right, and you don’t have to go fight tooth and nail.
Recently, we submitted a claim online then somebody called us. It was easy and it didn’t take very long. Then, the contractors came out within a couple days. It was the exact repair we had the previous year where there was a leak in one of the lines of the air conditioning where the pipes are soldered. The first contractor soldered that back up and added the Freon to it. But that seemed to last about a year and this time, the guy came out and couldn't find a leak. He figured that there was a small leak in the system somewhere because it was down to 8 pounds of Freon. So, he put in a sort of an inner tube sealant like you put in a tire to keep a slow leak from making a tire go flat, then added the Freon. Hopefully, it’ll find wherever that small leak is and fix it. Otherwise, we’ll just be back at it again next year and adding Freon every year. But so far, everything’s working great.

When we called for my most recent claim with 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty, it wasn't a very good experience. The person whom we talked to asked us if our microwave was a total failure. We told him that our machine works but then there's a loud sound emanating from it. He never told us that our claim would be denied because the machine was still working. So, we went through the process and we had a contractor come out. The contractor said that he would be back with the part within a couple of days. He said we had his word that we were gonna go get the microwave fixed.
We paid them $100 for 8 minutes during which he didn't have the part to fix the issue only for them to call us back two days later to say that our claim was denied because the machine was working. We're trying to look into another home warranty company. We're pissed 'cause the first time something broke down in the house and we were asking 2-10, we were calling and calling but nobody was getting back to us. We had to go through three people. For the microwave, Andrea put in a claim and didn't hear from anybody. Then, I put in two claims and didn't hear from anybody. Finally, somebody responds after the fourth time. This year, 2-10 has not impressed at all.

Hi there. We can understand your frustration with this claim experience. Unfortunately, unless there is a failure with a unit, your contract prevents us from providing service. If you end up having a failure, we would be happy to assist in getting your unit fixed. We apologize that this was upsetting for you both but we must adhere to your contract.

My experience with 2-10 has been terrible. When I call them I'm on hold forever. There are delays in getting back to us as well. Previously, they sent an AC guy to us to look at our AC. He didn't call for three or four days even though I called them several times. When the tech came, he said that this and that needed to be changed. He said that they will send the request to 2-10 and I should call 2-10 and they would approve it.
So, I called 2-10 and their reps said that they haven’t received the information yet from the contractor so I should call the contractor. I did that and the contractor said that they have already sent everything and that everything is fine. I responded by telling them that they said that they told me everything was not fine and that they said that things needed to be done.
I called 2-10 again and they said that everything was fine. In the meantime, I got another person independent of 2-10 to look at our AC because the temperatures are rising and we have 2 young kids in the house. I called 2-10 back and said that I got another person and told them what that tech was saying. I asked if they could accept that tech's recommendation and act on it. Their rep said that the tech I got would have to call them and they would have to send another person. I’ll have to pay again the service fee to that company. That's when I said that I was done with 2-10. I got an email from them yesterday that they’ll send out a service request to another company. Nobody has contacted me yet.

I've been satisfied with 2-10. It's definitely worth having. They were just more delayed than if I were to do it myself. But it's worth it in the long run. I'm a Realtor and they are referred in our office a lot. I refer them to all my clients and I want to use them myself. I like to call people so I always call them. I'm never on hold for a long time. But there was a miscommunication a couple of times when we were trying to do our dryer and they ordered the wrong part. But then it was fine and the other one were decent. A couple of times, they had to get two opinions before they replace a system. But that's understandable. Like right now, we're without AC. But it's gonna be replaced on Monday.

2-10 is a professional company. They have been around for as long as I can remember as a real estate agent and I’ve been doing this for 30 years. We have several properties that we manage and some of them have 2-10 warranties. When we have a claim, we either go online or call in to submit it and the reps we talked to so far were very polite and cordial. We didn't have any difficulty dealing with them. Normally, we'd get an expectation of when the contractor’s gonna call us, which is about 24 hours, and that would be met depending on the claim. For some plumbing and AC claims, it depends on what the contractors' schedule would be and some of them have been very lax and didn’t get to us immediately. We also normally call 2-10 and complain if we don't get a good contractor.
As for the service provided, we’ve had some very good service and some very lousy service from 2-10's contractors. But they would normally fix the issues for us. The last one that we had was for a plumbing issue and the techs from C & P Plumbing went out to the property and did an evaluation. They were very responsive and good contractors. Right now, they are waiting to go back because they needed access to a pipe they couldn't get to and we had to hire another contractor to give them access.

When our air conditioner went out, my husband was really impressed with the gentleman who came out. We expected the worst, and the AC guy was awesome. However, when our water heater kept going out, 2-10 sent somebody out and I was told I was going to get a refund if they couldn’t do anything for it. They couldn’t do anything for my water heater and they kept procrastinating. The contractor kept telling me, “I can't fix anything until I get approval through 2-10.” They also tried to tell me that it was gonna be $700 or $800 to replace my water heater. There was no coverage. It was like I might as well have just purchased a water heater and had somebody come out and do it myself.
I have two young children, a one-and-a-half-year-old and a five-year-old, who had cold showers and bath for over a week. We didn’t have hot water. We were having to constantly go out and relight the pilot light that would only warm up and that’s for a lukewarm bath in the winter. Trying to get through to them and get somebody out to fix the water heater, I found that out to be absolutely unacceptable. It was a really frustrating feeling with 2-10 on that end.
The water heater guy wasn’t very responsive. When I had questions about my contractor why he was charging so much for things, he was, “That’s the price. If you don’t want, call the home warranty company.” There was no walkthrough on anything. I would have liked to have seen the whole water heater experience taken a little bit more seriously. They didn’t want to replace it. It still ended up costing me a good junk of money out of pocket. It was more about the dollar money for them rather than customer service. It would be better if it was more customer service-related.
Our dishwasher is starting to leak and I’m not looking forward to calling. I’m not looking forward to dealing with this again. Getting through to 2-10 and being able to speak to a person takes about 30 minutes. I'm dreading the back and forth with them. I'm gonna have to pry someone to get out here in a timely manner. I'm gonna have to pay a bunch of money. I don’t see the point in having 2-10 if I’m still paying a lot of money.

However, I'm wondering what's going on with my microwave above the stove. It has been two and a half weeks. The contractor came by and looked at the microwave. He saw some burnt spots and he said that I needed a new one. He recommended it for replacement to 2-10. They just have to make sure they can find a replacement.
I have a second problem with my air conditioner and it has been two and a half weeks as well and I haven't heard much of anything. When I checked, somebody sent 2-10 the wrong number and I'm still waiting on it. Whatever is inside the air conditioning unit has been given the okay to be replaced but I haven't been given any date. I would have thought that the contractor for both the AC and the microwave would have at least called to let me know that it was gonna take another five or seven business days to locate what needed to be located and they'll be in touch by then. I can't just take off any day to be there and meet the techs.
Another issue I had was for the washer and dryer but after bugging 2-10, I finally got them to replace that but I'm still waiting on the microwave and AC. I'm trying to get these items in the house before somebody moves in on the first week of June. I already renewed for the next year. 2-10 came through for the washer and dryer. If they can come through for the microwave and AC unit, I'd do a commercial for them. I've been telling everybody to go to 2-10.

Our experience with 2-10 has been nothing short of completely awful. We put in a work order for a non- working AC upstairs on March 26. They tried replacing one part but it didn’t work. The contractor (who has been great) recommended replacing the unit. 2-10 initially said they would to both us and the contractor. Then radio silence for over a week. When we called to find out what was going on, they changed their mind and wanted to try another part. Which no one ever ordered. We were told multiple times the part was ordered, but it never was. Even the contractor couldn’t get them to order the part.
Finally in MAY they ordered the part and tried to put it, but but it still didn’t work as the contractor predicted and the unit condemned. Then they only ordered one of two parts of the unit, so here we are, heading towards June, still with no AC. I’m writing this awake in a bedroom in Georgia that’s 85 degrees. Oh, and I’m 6 months pregnant. No one at 2-10 cares. Go with American Home Shield. I’ve used them before. They actually replaced a bad furnace for me in what I thought were 3 long weeks. 3 weeks would be a pipe dream with 2-10.

!!!BUYERS BEWARE, IF YOU DON’T READ ANY FURTHER, PLEASE DON’T PURCHASE 2-10!!!! Today (5/16/2019), I contacted 2-10 HBW to request reimbursement for an urgent furnace repair. My furnace went out at 3am and I called a certified HVAC Company to do urgent repairs. It was 40 degrees out and dropping and I have a newborn. The repairs were done. They first replace the igniter, then realized I had a bad board. I paid for the repairs as it was urgent $816.00 for both items.
When explaining this situation to the customer service representative, I received a scripted response. I was informed, “I was to contact them before getting repairs.” Now, to a reasonable or at least a compassionate person you would understand that a newborn needs HEAT. No responsible parent is going to call 2-10 and wait for them to send a appraiser to authorize a repair. As other writers have complained this is a long process. THEY WANTED MY INFANT TO REMAIN IN THE COLD FOR PROFIT MARGINS.
I escalated my complaint to a Supervisor **(ID **). He gave the same scripted response and referenced my contract. I informed him I did not receive a contract, nor sign anything. This was a seller Home Warranty purchased for the buyer. He informed me “they” should have given me the warranty information. Now, what business relies on an independent 3rd party individual (not even company) to deliver information. To date, I still do not have a contract or warranty information
This is an absolute poor business model. Management should be terminated, Board disbanded, and properly investigated for fraud. They took the sellers money, added my name to the contract, but I did not sign anything nor did they forward me anything! However, when you need them they quickly find a way to escape any liability. Simply put a terrible business and a terrible business model as relayed on this message board. FRAUDULENT COMPANY!!!

Hi there, William, we would like to clarify some areas where you misunderstood our services. We can understand you doing to do what is best for your newborn baby and it is unfortunate that your break down happened so early in the morning. Unfortunately, your contract states that unless you receive prior authorization for repairs/replacement, we are not able to reimburse. Also, your contract was gifted to you by the seller of the home and covers the property. This is a very common practice within all warranty companies and is in no way fraudulent. Most warranties are gifted by the realtor upon closing and are given to the homeowner. If you would like to cancel your warranty, you are more than welcome to but if you plan to use your coverage, you are subject to the exclusions outlined in your contract. We hope this offered some further clarity into your claims, but please send us a message if you have any additional questions or concerns.

We were at work at the time but my aunt was here and she said that they were rude, disrespectful to her, and very condescending when talking to her. She also said that they told her what the problem was and that we were gonna have to fix the problem on our own because it was not covered by the warranty. But all it was was a leaky hose and it is covered. So now, we cannot have ice in our refrigerator at all because the water is leaking and if I turn it on, then it leaks all over our floor. We could go get a brand new hose on our own and not wait on 2-10, but to me, that seems pretty stupid to do when we paid for the home warranty and they should have fixed it to begin with.
We paid for the more expensive warranty, so we’ve been waiting on the techs to come back out. We’ve communicated with that service multiple times on our availability and the only time that they would come out was when we weren’t available. It’s been the worst thing and they still haven't fixed the refrigerator. But the other person that 2-10 sent out for the electricity was fine.

2-10 was a warranty that was gifted to us when we bought the house, and it was convenient that we stayed with the company. For the most part, it’s been pretty good. I just didn't like this last service that I received because they didn't repair the issue. Up until this last one that came, I was very pleased with the technician that they had sent out.
For some of my previous issues, they have been able to replace or repair my product, or service was really good. This last time, the first time my water heater went out, the plumber that they sent was not at all interested in completing the job. I don't think 2-10 should at all work with them. That guy was completely useless. You could tell he definitely did not want the job. It was too hard for him, and he did everything he could to avoid it. In fact, he pretty much didn't even respond back to me. I had to call 2-10 back two days later to say, “Hey, I still don’t have a hot water heater.”
The second one that they sent out was really good. He was the one that actually had an eye for what needed to be done and gave me some good advice. It was just a long, dwelling process that I did not appreciate. When I called 2-10 with this last issue, one representative told me this, and then the next time I called, it was something different. When we finally decided to do the buy-out, the representative said it only offered like $300. I told her that was ridiculous. She gave me an option to think about it for two days. That was emotional because I was already a week without hot water and they still wanna tell me two more days. It was horrible. Nevertheless, we got through it. I’m still satisfied.

I've been with 2-10 for seven years and every time whenever I’ve had an issue, customer service has been very courteous and helpful. They’ve always set me up with a date and time, and it’s worked out. I’ve never had any issues. Yesterday, they called because my payment was declined because I haven’t had any sufficient fund. They've been keeping me updated so it won’t affect my credit reports. I was able to pay it online. It’s a good program and I’m gonna continue to use it.
If I have an issue, I’ll just go ahead and call the 1-800 number. At that point, I get the automated telephone service. And then after that, I speak to a representative. They tell me if I haven’t heard anything within the next 72 hours, call this person and this company. And the contractors come out here within the next 48 hours and fix it. And if they’re running late, they call me up and tell me to make sure that somebody’s home and we’re not wasting anybody’s time.
The claims process is pretty good. I pay a copay, $75, which is okay. It’ll probably cost me way more money if I didn’t have any warranty like 2-10. And I’m sure there are other companies out there that are either cheaper or expensive.

I submitted a claim with 2-10 online on a Friday afternoon and they said the tech would call me back in 24 hours, but that wasn't the case. I had to reach out to him and the problem wasn't taken care of until Tuesday the following week. So, my tenants were out of hot water for almost a week. 2-10 also said that they were gonna pay for the hot water heater repair and maintenance.
But I had to pay $75 for the tech going out there diagnosing it and on top of that, there was some added expense of about $800 that I was not too happy about. I've also not been provided any kind of documentation as to what the warranty paid for and what I ended up paying for even though I requested it from their representative. I've requested it from the plumber and he said he sent it to 2-10. So, I've kind of been kept in the dark and now I paid $700, the fee was for the home warranty. But I didn't think it was that good of a value.
This home is about two hours away from me, so it's very convenient to have a home warranty where I can call in and ask them to fix something instead of me having to find a technician on my own. So I thought it was gonna be beneficial, but apparently, you get what you pay for. Now, I'm out $800 plus $700 and I also pay 170 a month, but I don't know what the heck I'm getting.

We have 2-10 since last year and we speak to a representative when we submit our claims to them. When we filed claims for our garage door & AC, which were simple ones, there weren't any issues. But recently, there was an issue with the toilet and I filed a claim online with 2-10. Then, my wife followed-up with a call which went smoothly. We ended up getting a plumber that was outside of the network, which was fine because 2-10 would reimburse us for it. We just had to pay upfront and they'd reimburse up to $500.
However, when my wife called them, she left everything about the reimbursement, even the reference number, to the rep she talked to. But when she called back because she had another question, the agent on the line wasn't able to trace back what she previously submitted. She had to spend a lot of time on the phone and she got frustrated. She even had to call the manager on the other line to get that information. We finally got reimbursed but it took a while and it took a lot from her time, instead of just a simple phone call. She was on the phone for 40 minutes, then she had to call three times. So the submission part was easy but the follow-up part was the hard one.
Other than that, our initial experience with the contractor was pretty bad because 2-10 didn't tell us in advance the limitations of the contractors even if we described the issue to them. We said that it was a plumbing issue and it was coming from the toilet. But we didn't realize that the plumber didn't really open anything. The pipes have to be exposed for them to perform their work. So if they had to go under or if they have to open something, then they wouldn't do the job. Maybe it's an insurance thing but if we knew about that, we would have done something prior or we would have just gotten a handyman.
Despite that, the techs who came out were professional. 2-10 just needed to let us know what to expect, if there were any limitations, or if there was something we had to prepare for. Because if there's an issue and the contractor has to come back, then it's a waste on their time and my time because I have to take off from work. Also, submitting a claim with 2-10 shouldn't have been this hard and we were dissatisfied with our experience.

I’ve been with 2-10 for almost two years and generally, I prefer submitting claims over the phone. However, their automated system takes forever to get through. I know they’re trying to have calls shuttled to the right place but the process is tedious at times. They should give me someone to talk to. I only had one claim last year and it was fine. This year, there has been a few and there has been a lot of confusion. I talk for a living. I’m very clear about what is wrong and what needs to be done. I paid $200 for two guys to come out here and do nothing. The guy looked at it and said they couldn’t do it and walked away. I gave him a $100 check for just walking on my door. It was the same thing with the issue I had on my stove. We had a gas leak downstairs and I smelled gas coming up. I thought it was coming from my stove. The guy came out, checked it and said it was fine.
The plumber that 2-10 sent didn’t know a pipe form a hockey stick and I ended up having to pay $500 out-of-pocket to my plumber who was able to diagnose it in about 10 minutes and fix it. It was for a pipe fitting and the plumber that 2-10 sent out wouldn’t even look at it. He walked into my basement and said he couldn’t do anything. He said that I owe him a hundred bucks and he didn’t even pull a wrench out of his toolbox. I have an air conditioning issue and the reps are supposedly coming out today. They called me yesterday to say the window was between 9:00 and 5:00, which is fine since I work from home. But this is the last shot. I’m gonna go over to Home Shield if this doesn’t work out. If the air conditioning issue goes smoothly, then I’ll stay with 2-10. If it doesn’t, I don’t know why I’m paying them.

When we purchased our home, our Realtor negotiated the 2-10 warranty into our purchase. The most recent go-around has been incredibly frustrating. We, back in September, had to submit a claim for the microwave which completely quit working. They came out and fixed it. And then, last month, it quit working in the exact same manner. We called 2-10 and got a claim submitted. Unfortunately, that process did not go smoothly. I got an email right away saying that the claim had been dispatched, but then I never heard from anyone. So, I called back to 2-10, and they said it was not dispatched and it was gonna be another three days. And I told them I had the email so I was totally confused.
They tried to expedite it and get someone out. They finally found someone. My husband’s military, I’m a full time student, and we have four kids. So, I was contacted by a contractor who said, “Yes, I can come today between this time and this time.” I told him I was gonna leave class early. I’d skip my afternoon classes and go home. I never got a call, and he was a complete no-show. Finally, I called 2-10 again, and they had to redispatch it to somebody else. So, it was set again for the next day. I had to miss more classes. And at this point, my GPA’s dropping because it was toward the end of the semester and we were gearing up for finals. So, they had it dispatched the next day, the guy came out, and complained about how far the drive was and how far away we are. And he was surprised he was sent out here. He asked why wasn’t someone else that was closer dispatched.
He did half the job and said that he would submit the work order for a couple of other things, and he made me go and buy the paint coating for touching up the inside of my microwave to cover exposed metal. Then I never heard back from anyone. Finally I called 2-10 again and told them the job was never done. It got dispatched, I didn’t hear from anyone, and I called back again. Then they said they finally got a hold of someone. And he said I was gonna have to pay the $70. I had to call 2-10 again and spent a good 40 minutes on the phone again. They had to cancel all of that out and process it again with the guy that didn’t finish the job the first time. I never heard back from them. I called and left a message yesterday and there was no return phone call. I finally called again today, and maybe he’s coming on Thursday. That was what we set up and I’m just crossing my fingers at this point. It has been a disaster.
I told 2-10 that it was really frustrating because we were fortunate enough to have the warranty built into the purchase of our home, but it’s for renewal in June, and if it’s this hard just to get a microwave fixed, why would we renew? It’s crazy. And with the customer service, it took a lot of explaining and running around. They did not understand what was going on. It took a lot of time for them to find the correct work orders. And this latest time, the gal made it into a big deal that she would need to go talk to her supervisor to see if they were able to waive the $70 fee.
As for the contractors, the very first people that came out for the original issue back in September were very nice. We had our dishwasher go out at the same time. That one was smooth. We were able to get it replaced, which was great. On the microwave issue, the first guy that I talked to on the phone was a no-show. And then the guy that actually showed up the next day ran an hour late. So, I missed a class that I could’ve been in. He was quite grumpy and not particularly friendly. And then we didn’t get any sorta follow-up from him.
I'm really not impressed with the company. And I had left them a message yesterday because they put in the work order, it must have been Friday or Saturday, and so the 24 hours would have been Monday at 4:00 or 5:00. I never heard from anybody. I left them a message because I didn’t hear from anyone. And then no callback today at all. We had to get their contractors out three times before they would replace the dishwasher. On the microwave, it’s gonna be the third time they’re coming out. And it seems like nothing has gone smoothly. I totally understand things happen. But there’s only so much running around that you can give a person before they just really lose patience and faith that you’re gonna do what you say you’re gonna do.

I’ve been working with 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty for at least six years. I’m a real estate agent and I handle my clients' claims with them. Lately, we’ve been setting up an online account for buyers and helping them work through submitting the claim online but in the past, I would typically call 2-10. I love their service reps. Interacting with them has been a good experience, but my experience submitting claims has been varied, mainly because of the contractors.
It's difficult stuff and I have an added layer of a challenge. A lot of my clients don't have English as their first language so I help them with the claims. They make the appointment during the times that I'm with them so a lot of times, I add myself and my number there, but even with that, they simply have a hard time making that initial connection with the contractors. I had a client from last year that had four claims and they were not happy meeting the contractors. Still, I’ve had a great experience with 2-10 and it’s better than other companies I’ve looked at.

I've been with 2-10 since June 2018 and they have great customer service. The claims process is very easy. But what I don't like is the fact that when I put in a work order, it always takes days for someone to be sent out to my home. When I call, I feel like my things are emergencies like the first time I made a claim because I had a gas leak. I had to have my gas shut off which caused my hot water to be cut off. My water had stopped for two weeks. This time, I made a claim regarding my air conditioner. The issue had to do with the AC's Freon and 2-10 sent out Adanac Air Systems. I called Monday and no one came out until Friday. I don't like the fact that the timeframes are a little messy. Other than that, everything is okay.

The issue was with the pop-up jets, which is a part of the pool system and it starts with the above ground stuff. Part of their explanation was that if it’s in-ground, they don’t cover it. So, I had to pay for a contractor to come out. I've had them for three years and this is pretty typical with them.

We are Realtors, so we have known about 2-10 professionally for longer than I can remember. I've had direct experience with other warranty companies that were less satisfactory than the 2-10 for the most part. So, 2-10 is the one we tend to promote most often and that’s the one we’ve had on our personal property for a number of years. But my last experience with them was decidedly not positive.
We have an older air conditioning system because we bought an older house. When the air conditioning system stopped functioning, so we called in for a claim. We were notified that the claim was gonna be denied because the system was too old and it had rusted out, and there were inferences that we didn’t take proper care of it. Long story short, we had to go through a long, involved, appeal process, and we finally got as a concession to our professional support of 2-10 as Realtors but not as homeowners, a settlement that was ultimately a fair one. But we had to go through three weeks of combat.

Recently, our AC was out again. Submitting the claim with 2-10 was easy. I just called in, hit two or three buttons, and it was done. We submitted the claim yesterday morning and around 6 o’clock, we got a call from the contractor. They're coming today at 3:00. So, it's not long at all for someone to be scheduled to come out. A few weeks ago, we had a problem with the same AC unit, and the same contractor came back out. We had to wait a few more days for them and it was a little warmer at the time too so it was a little more unbearable. Also, it wasn’t covered under the warranty. We will probably end up having to get a whole unit ‘cause this is the second time in two months that we’ve had to call somebody.

There were several options about filing a claim with 2-10 but I did mine online and navigating through the website was easy. The HVAC guy was not good at all and I re-issued a claim with them. I had water in my vents and the guy said that there was no reasonable issue with my service that 2-10 would do anything about. He seemed very knowledgeable of what 2-10 would and would not cover. He told me that I should probably call my home insurance company and have them do something. However, I have the extended warranty and everything that is wrong with the system is covered under it.
The guy was trying to back-door solicit. Maybe he wasn’t but that was the feeling because he told me and noted that there was a massive heat or temperature difference. He said that when he installed in his new house, he could get it within less than one degree and the 75-feet difference between the bedroom and the living room was a huge deal. We had to build fires when it was 70-degrees outside in the living room. The bedroom would be 85 and the living room would be 68, so it was like all the air was going into the bedroom. We shut off all the vents and still, it wasn’t pushing the hot air from the back to the front of the house. It was blowing out cold air in there.
The first refrigerator guy who came out was almost irritated because the refrigerator wasn’t plugged in. He said there was nothing he could do and that it was a sealed unit. It was not something he could take care of. He took my $100 and abruptly left. On the other hand, the second refrigerator guy who came in was awesome and very knowledgeable. He came in and did his job. He communicated with me what was gonna happen. Then, the parts came in and he replaced it. It didn’t work and it was leaking somewhere in the system. He also said that there was not a lot that they could do to fix it but he said they would file for a replacement. However, there was a miscommunication. 2-10 thought that he was still ordering for a replacement of the part and not the unit. Once we figured it out, it took another week. I’ve got a loaner fridge, so that was not a big deal and 2-10 got that taken care of.
One part of it was awesome and great but the other part was not. I’m satisfied 100% with the refrigerator but I’m not satisfied with the HVAC because I haven’t even heard back from anybody denying or approving anything. I need them to come back in and what concerns me more is I already gave him $100 to come out here and assess the situation. I’ve been still waiting for them to call me back to contact me and I haven’t heard anything.

Usually, I submit claims over the phone to 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty. Though it isn't difficult, I've had one bad experience thus far. Representatives told me that I didn't have to pay the deductible 'cause the claim was a repeating occurrence. But, they ended up charging me 'cause the supervisor overrode what the representatives said and no one called me to inform me. Nevertheless, their contractors get my issues resolved for me. Any time I call, I just pay the $75 and 2-10 sends someone out right away.

Submitting claims with 2-10 is difficult. I called and spoke to a representative, and they just listened, typed in whatever they needed to type in and sent out an auto-generated email. That was it. They did their process, which in the whole scheme of things is the most minimum. When you submit a claim, you have to wait until it's submitted and 2-10 gets somebody. In my last claim, there was water leaking in my house. There was water on the walls and there was water drenched in the floor. But 2-10 really didn't constitute it as an emergency until I started getting agitated and even when it was classified as an emergency, nobody showed up in four days.
In fact, we never got a service contractor from 2-10. I ended up having to pay for the repairs so that it wouldn't cause other damage to the house like mold. 2-10 even said they're not responsible for any consequential damages caused by the appliance. Well, that doesn't make any sense. So I wouldn't recommend them to nobody else. They haven't called and asked me to look at reimbursement either. We only used 2-10 last year and this year. But ever since I've been in my house in 2009, the warranty has been there and they cash my check on time when it's time to pay. So for eight years, I've given them my money and I still ended up having to replace my own air conditioner.
That time, we called them because we had a problem with the air conditioner and the contractor came out. It was recommended to 2-10 that a part would need to be repaired but they paid more to fix the parts on it. We might have needed to just get a new air conditioner in the current industry standard. So this year, when the people came out, it was because the Freon was slowly leaking out. But the pipes weren't clogged and there wasn't anything wrong. The Freon cost about $250 a pound and the fix cost about $1,200. I even still have a claim open with 2-10 regarding my bathtub. I've called the people that 2-10 had recommended three times. Those guys haven't made an appointment with me and they're like, "Oh yeah. Oh, sorry about that." That's been almost four weeks ago.

I've been with 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty for five years and have been very happy with them. I wouldn’t say their claims process is easy though. You really have to follow up and stay on them and not give in. They’re definitely an insurance company and not looking to pay for everything. But, if you hold your ground and you know the companies in your area, then it would work out. Their customer service is great. But their sales, their service, and their part distribution centers don’t always talk to each other so calling in isn’t a pleasant experience. I also tried submitting online, but it was a terrible way to go.
2-10's coverage is great. They cover two air conditioning units, my heat, and a washing machine. Although the turnaround time is not great, I’d rather have the coverage than bad quality work. When it comes to major appliances or major household systems, like air conditioning and heat, they should offer expedited services. When the heat goes down in the middle of the winter and the pipes are gonna freeze, you would think that they would want to act quickly, instead of saying that that’s the way it is. It would have been better if they covered those issues as well. My interactions with the contractors they've sent have been excellent though. Plus, the contractors were very knowledgeable.

The hot water heater went out, then our air conditioner upstairs. Generally, 2-10 sends out the contractor on the next business day. For the AC, we put the claim in on Saturday and the contractor came out on Monday. I was very impressed. They did a great job and they did it quickly. On the other hand, when the plumbers came out, I felt like they were trying to jerk us around a little bit. They told us that there was a part that was messed up. They initially came out here and reset a breaker that has kicked on the water heater. I happened to be crawling under there with the plumber so I could see what he was doing. He showed me what he reset and then, he left. The water heater went out again and it took four days for him to come out to replace that part.
The first time, he said everything was great with the water heater but the thermostat popped. Then he came out and replaced the thermostat. He was here trying to replace the whole water heater, which just three or four day beforehand, he told me everything was fine except for the thermostat. I wasn't super happy with the plumber. They eventually got it done, but it took longer than what it should have. He should have just replaced the part at the beginning instead of making my kids go without hot water for showers for a couple of days. They had to shower in our bathroom. One half of the house was still working, so we still had one shower with hot water. Nevertheless, 2-10 is good and we haven’t had any issues with them. When we first moved here, we had a different warranty company but 2-10 was a lot less expensive and covered the same things.

The first claim with 2-10 was the double oven not working properly. We contacted 2-10 and they set the repair up.

I had to end up calling them to schedule the appointment after contacting 2-10 to get the information for them. It took a little over two weeks to even get someone out here. They kept canceling appointments. Even after we paid them, it took them over a month to cash the check. So, they didn’t even close out the service request for over a month after we had paid them.
Except for that one contractor, I've enjoyed my experience with 2-10. The other claim we had was the electrical in one of the rooms that went out. We contacted 2-10 and set the repair up.

There was one time with the website that wasn't working so great 'cause it didn't have the right options or the right way to describe the claim. It kept trying to steer me back towards a plumbing claim and that was not exactly the right issue. The website generally works pretty well for the standard stuff, but if it doesn't fit in one of the molds that are on there, it doesn't work with the user. It's stubborn. So I called and when I explained it to them, it was fine. The claims reps I've spoken with have been been professional and straightforward. The contractors were good guys too. They came and did their work. They were professional and on time. They didn't leave a mess.
The coverage lapses in June and we're not sure on renewing with 2-10 yet. I'm going back and forth with my wife and we're still trying to decide. Part of the discussion is what are the other alternatives out there, what's the cost, etc. The only thing that's a little kind of irritating is they have these little sales and they're trying to get me to sign back up for another year. They'll be like, "Hey, if you make the decision in the next three days, we'll give you $75 off." It's just kind of the whole ticking clock sale technique and I don't really appreciate it.

I have been with 2-10 warranty for 19 years now and have been a loyal customer. I have had several contractors come out to fix my refrigerator, stove, sink, toilets, water heater and washer and dryer. I have no complaints on the service received until just recently. Even though 2-10 is pricier than other warranty companies, I have remained loyal. I never write reviews but this recent incident warrants one.
A contractor came out to fix my washing machine on April 26. He could not find parts necessary to get washer working so had to defer to 2-10 and their research department to find the parts. I have called several times to find out what the status was. Each time I was told they were looking for the parts and would take 3-5 business days. I have a two year grandson at the house so a working washing machine is essential. I would not be as upset if I had received follow up phone calls to let me know the status.
When you have an issue with 2-10 there appears to be no one to reach out to. Supervisors know nothing more than the person who answers the phone. I called again today 5/13/19 to get status. I was transferred to the parts department again. This time I was informed that the parts could not be found. It should not take two weeks to figure out that parts are not available. Ashley was kind enough to now pass this issue over to the replacement folks. However, I was told it would be 3-5 days before I received an email as to what the status would be... whether a replacement washer was found or I would received money to replace myself. You would think that long standing customers would receive much better service than this. SMH.

This time, I had to wait a little bit longer. The whole time, it's hard to get to somebody and to find out what's going on, I waited an hour on the phone. First, I called one department and they didn't know what was going on. They had to transfer me to another department. They kept saying that 2-10 had a long call line, so I waited on the phone until I was able to speak to somebody. My interaction with him was a relief but he had to take a long time because my case was a little different from others.
My refrigerator stopped working and I've been dealing with it for two weeks. I didn't want my food to get bad. My husband helped me put the refrigerator into the garage so I can bring out my back-up refrigerator. When we called the service guy, he didn't wanna fix it because he said that it was in the wrong place. He didn't look at anything and they were trying to charge me which I didn't think was fair. It was my fault for not reading the fine print, but if they're not doing anything, then I shouldn't be charged. Plus, it was kinda hard to do things when you're working all the time.
He had to come back and we had to do another ticket for him to come back. He was kinda rude, so I kind of reacted rudely back. I didn't like the way he talked. He came back last Monday and he spoke to my husband. He just told my husband, "Oh, they're gonna just replace it. The warranty is gonna give you a callback." Yesterday, I had to call back to see what was going on so I was on the phone all morning. That's such a big inconvenience for me only to find out that no, I'm not gonna get a replacement. They're just gonna replace those two parts. The communication part has a room for improvement. The people who come out should be reaching out and letting me know the timeframe of when they're gonna call me back, and not just say, "Oh, your warranty is gonna call you back." But aside from the wait time, everyone has been friendly and very helpful.

I originally made a claim with 2-10 for my furnace. At night, it got down to 60 degrees in the house. I had the furnace on but it wasn’t turning on. I called 2-10 for that. In Ohio, the temperature fluctuates. It could be 80 degrees one day and 50 the next. The next day, it was 85 degrees and the air conditioner wouldn’t work. I called 2-10 back and had them come out and look at the air conditioner. Since it was getting into summer, I would rather have the AC fixed then the furnace. I called Monday night.
It takes a contractor a day to call you to schedule an appointment. If a contractor is not gonna come out that day then it’s the next day. And if he doesn't call you then you have to wait for the next day. For my claim, it took three days for a technician to come out. If my furnace was out and it was zero degrees out, I would have had a problem with that. But right now in Ohio, the weather is pretty mild so I don't need a furnace or air conditioner necessarily all the time. My experience has been okay. The representatives have been good so far. But overall, I probably wouldn’t go with 2-10 again.

2-10 Home Buyers Warranty was in my contract when I purchased my home. I've been with them for over a year and when they asked me to renew, they gave me two different prices. The first was $174 a month and I said that I couldn't afford that. They called me back and another lady talked to me. She said that it would be $38 a month. The price was right and I said I could do that. I called when I submitted a claim and spoke with someone. The interaction with both the claims rep and the contractor were very good although once, I waited a while before I got a contractor out. I would recommend 2-10. It’s a good service to have for the home.
