    I was generally satisfied with the ease of filing a claim and the responsiveness to reach final resolution. However, I was not satisfied with the payment issued to cover replacement of my appliance. CHOICE was only willing to pay me what they termed "Actual Cost" which is in fact what COICE would pay for the appliance, which is significantly less than retail cost that the CUSTOMER will ACTUALLY have to pay. This equates to half the price of what replacement of the appliance will cost ME, the customer. I find the warranty coverage advertised to be misleading and misrepresentative of what customers actually receive, which is a fraction of the actual cost it will be to replace broken appliances.

    We had a water backup and I expressed the urgency of getting it fixed as we could not run any water. We waited 20 hours and made two phone calls before any tech reached out to us, stating they'd be to our house FOUR DAYS later. In order to use our own plumber, there were more hoops to jump through which were not conducive for an emergency situation. We ended up paying out of pocket, but because we couldn't wait for the back and forth approval process, and had to get the work done before awaiting pre-approval, we will not be reimbursed.

    Previously, we had dishwasher issues and were told we would get a new one. we were given only $246 credit in the form a LOWE'S gift card, which we are yet to receive. The amount would only cover the installation of the dishwasher. I am convinced that your company makes claims so difficult, that people give up and you don't have to pay out. For all the touting of how well you allegedly take care of your clients, we have yet to see evidence of it. Once we finally receive our pittance gift cards, we will be cancelling our policy. HIGHLY DISSATISFIED.

    The technician who came to my house, did NOT have the full work order of items I had requested to be looked at. He was able to fix the leaking knobs in my shower, but only after he waited an hour to hear back from CHW about covering the cost of new knobs. He was also able to provide a recommendation on how to fix my fridge that wasn't making ice, it was a simple twist of a knob! I'm so glad I didn't have to pay another service call fee for this because I knew it was something a plumber could fix.

    It seems to me every time I make a claim they come out and the first thing they say is the part I need isn’t covered under the warranty, so I pay a 65 dollar copay for nothing. This has happened twice now, so for me this warranty is useless and when my warranty expires I will not be renewing. One time the technician gave me a 4 hour window and never showed up. No call or nothing..

    What Choice Home Warranty offered was the most comparable. They laid out everything, the cost and what it covered and didn’t, and it was a locked-in price for four years. The agent sent me a packet in the mail and there was a card in there. I got that card on the refrigerator, so if I have questions, I would just call that number. You better call Choice and get signed up and not mess around.

    We had one claim where Choice Home Warranty came out to fix plumbing in the bathroom up front. And they came out on time. I was a bit concerned, because when I checked on the reviews for that, they were all negative. But they came out, it was a little easy fix. The guy that came out was polite. He was quick. Went and got the part, came back and fixed it. And it's working fine. So, I'm a bit concerned about how Choice chooses who to come out.

    I also made a call a month ago on our fireplace. But the lady that I talked to said that was not covered. It was the first time we've had an issue with it, but I've never tried it with the prior people we had. It was put in when the house was built, so I was surprised that that would not be covered. I looked through the papers at the time, because I thought, "No way." But I couldn't find a list of what is covered and not covered. We ended up going through the phone book, and they're coming out today to fix it. We just can't get it to light. I'm hoping it might be something super simple because it's gonna cost. So, we're keeping Choice. Hopefully, we don't need a period. But the next time we have issues, I'll switch.

    I'm not having a good experience with Choice Home Warranty. I didn't understand their contract. I had a garage door opener go bad. It went off track. And I didn't know it didn't cover it if the door fell off track. They only cover the motor of the garage door opener. And they asked, “Didn't you read it?” I didn't. But they told me that they would give me half my money back if I just put in a thing. And the guy that I called out wasn't connected to them. It was just a mess. That was two months ago. And I still haven't got half of the money back. But they keep on saying it's coming. Once this ends, I'm not going back with them. It's not worth the hassle.

    I had a problem two months after I had Choice. It had to do with the expansion manifold in my heater. It's the part where the flame is dispersed from. Choice said that their technician said that it was preexisting. I said, “How can he say that when he's never even seen my furnace? How can it be preexisting when it worked perfectly fine until it didn't?”

    My technician said that there was no way to tell if it was a preexisting condition. He asked if it was working and I said it was and we never had any problems with it the whole time we've lived here. I said, “It just started doing it where it would stay on for a little while and shut off.” He told me that that is what happens when they go bad. They crack and they start doing that. That meant that was not there before.

    My technician says it wouldn't work right if it was cracked. If it was cracked before, he said it would do the same thing. What it does is it lets out too much heat and the thermal shut-off kicks in and it shuts it off. There's blowback. The flame comes rolling back toward the exhaust or toward the manifold that's supplying the flames. He said, “When it rolls back there, there's a thermal protection that's designed specifically for this. Because this happens in units that are old. When they crack, the flame rolls back. It gets too hot right there in the area. And to prevent the house from burning down, it shuts off.”

    I talked to Choice and they still denied the claim. I told Choice, "Why don't you call and talk to my technician that came out here and looked at my furnace?” They said they didn't need to as they have technicians that have been in the field so long and they consult them. I asked them, “What do I need you for? You said you cover stuff like ceiling fans and other things in my home. I put a claim and, willy-nilly, you could just say, ‘Well, that was a preexisting condition. We're not gonna approve your claim.’ So, this does me no good to have this.” Also, they did not even send anybody of their own people out to look at the unit. They were just calling from the desk and it was ridiculous to me. I canceled my warranty and told them to give me my money back.

    It was the coldest day of the year and I called Choice to help get someone to fix my heater. They gave me a runaround and said they can't do it for two weeks. I had my family there freezing and Choice wouldn’t help me get someone in an emergency to come in. When you have an emergency and you explain the emergency to the people who are supposed to be helping you, they should try to help you. Choice didn’t even try and that was the only time I used them. I was really disappointed with my service. My family's safety is paramount and they didn't seem like they cared one way or the other. So I showed them that I don't care either.

    Choice Home Warranty has chosen to not pay the technician to remove the tile in our shower to access the leak and put tile back. He has to remove the tile on the front wall and possibly have to replace it. Without doing this he can’t fix the leak. No one has reached out to me to try to resolve this matter. So if he can’t access the leak, he can’t fix it. And I certainly can’t blame the technician because he should be paid to do the work.

    I bought my policy after a real estate agent recommended it. Unfortunately, I don’t think the policy is worth it. Of course Choice Home Warranty cannot cover everything but I didn’t expect to pay 1300 dollars for a policy only to pay another 65 (service fee) to be told the company won’t fix my appliance, nor will they replace it.

    So I’m to be fair and accurate. The snake oil salesman promised in kind replacement of appliances and we bought it. Repairman recommended replacement and offered us $246. to purchase an equivalent dishwasher. That amounted to sponges and a case of Dawn. When I challenged the offer I began to research compromises at Frigidaire. Of course I could not find a $246. Dishwasher. I listed the features of my current dishwasher and a lovely Frigidaire employee actually found a dishwasher that had 5 of the 7 features of my current appliance on sale for $300 off and at Lowe’s at $546. I was willing to accept this. I was told no. I was told that this would cost Choice would pay for a dishwasher. I was adamant that I was willing to accept a dishwasher with less features. After a brief consult with a supervisor the Choice representative offered $346 in Lowe’s cards to be delivered within 30 days.

    Well the $300 sale was expiring on the 8th and supplies were limited so we used our credit card to purchase the new dishwasher. Don’t ask about our boiler that hasn’t worked since the middle of January despite us hiring a repairman, submitting the same invoice 3x, broken appts. to discuss the issue and a temperature of 49 degrees in our main bedroom last night.

Asks me to identify the system at issue from their list. There it is, Pool/Spa. Asks for specifics from list. There it is, Salt Water Cell. Claim placed. Guy comes out. Pay the 85$. Says it's definitely salt water cell, but all out of stock, back order up to 6 months. Says he'll call.

    Fast forward to end of January. No word, no salt water cell. Check my what's covered link to verify coverage, lists Pool and spa. Cool. File another claim online. Choose pool spa. Choose salt water cell from list (it's still there). Get a new guy scheduled Feb 1. Shows up, yep salt water cell is bad, they're in stocks! Have to get approval. Pay 85$, he leaves files for approval.

    Get email within 15 minutes. Denied. Reason? "We don't cover salt water cells. Read your coverage." But I did. It's even on your dropdown menu. Why offer it as an option if you don't cover it? Why not cancel the claim with explanation of non coverage instead of letting me pay 85$? Twice! Turns out Choice is bad. The real "what's covered" is very well hidden on website.

    Choice Home has definitely saved me money due to a bad period of appliance break downs. My last repair of my dryer took only a few days (which was awesome). However my refrigerator/freezer took 40 days that spanned over Christmas (horrible). I was allowed to change repair companies on the dryer (Sears took the job and then advised they could not come out for 9 days). However I was not allowed to change companies when my AC broke in the middle of the summer and that company had a long delay on getting parts. The initial appointment is usually quick (except with Sears on my dryer) but then ordering parts takes a long time (except with company that replaced Sears). I wish Choice Home would send me a list of repair companies and let me decide instead of just assigning whoever replies first to the service. I would definitely like Champion Appliance Repair (dryer) if something else breaks down.

    Ronald was very professional and explained the items covered thoroughly. He answered all my questions and was very cordial during the whole process. I would definitely recommend calling them. Not only are their customer representatives easy to work with but the coverages they offer are the most complete and both the monthly cost and service fee deals were the best.

    Would be 5 stars but, because your rep reads off a script, she never answered my question... which was...since it's furnace, not say stove or something easy to go without for a bit, and it's winter where I live will this be prioritized? Asked 3 times. She just kept repeating standard reply time from a technician.

    I was surfing the internet looking for a warranty company and ran up on Choice Warranty. I spoke to my husband after looking at the reviews and the agent called him after I gave the number. The agent was very courteous and patient with working with our new account. I know this will be the company that will be our choice for lifetime.

    I thought the technician Marcus was very professional and experienced. He knew what was going on with my fridge/freezer and washer. Unfortunately at the time Choice warranty wouldn't cover the freezer problem but he fixed it anyway. CW wanted me to thaw out the freezer and risk all my food spoiling! Which is not satisfactory! My washer couldn't be fixed and will need to be replaced, I don't feel the e-card is enough to replace it but that's your policy. I think it's outrageous I have to wait 30 days for the funds and be without a washer all that time!!!

    They took good care of us, sent a professional out the very next day who in the process of helping us.

    Original Review: Feb. 2, 2023

    I have been 4 days with no air conditioning. Then after day four a rude tech who Home Choice assigned to my claim told us he did not have the proper insurance to do repairs in my building. He further stated that if I my building needed him to be properly bonded and insured, I would have to pay him $150 on top of the $65 service charge.

    What building would allow anyone to do repairs without being properly insured? We told him he could not come then called Home Choice who agreed to send another company. However, henceforth, after my 1/2-hour call, I receive notice my claim would not be honored until I pay the tech for his phone call trying to shake me down for an extra $150. See Home Choice's email below.

    "CHW Posted a message on your claim:" "We are unable to proceed with your claim until the service call fee is paid to the vendor. The service fee is due once the vendor is on route to the home. Claim is closed." I then spent another 1/2 hour calling Home Choice back and had to re explain what happened to a different Home Choice operator, since the first one seemingly did nothing to fix the problem. I still have not heard back from Home Choice. I should not have to spend so much time and get stressed just trying to get service on the expensive warranty plan I paid for. I am very disappointed in Home Choice; I hope they make this right.

    My experience with Choice has not been pleasant or satisfactory. After waiting over 2 weeks for a repair man, it was deemed my dishwasher could not be repaired. After talking with several of Choice representatives, I received an e-mail saying "Congratulations" we are REPLACING your dishwasher. A $246.00 e-card to Lowe's would be given to me. Certainly that was not acceptable.. I submitted a request for a case manager to contact me. I have spoken to 4 people. Only one, (all others seem to read from a script & repeat over & over no matter what you say or ask) Dielliavissa **, was professional, listened and explained that in order to be considered for a larger replacement amount, certain qualifications had to be met.

    I complied by sending pictures requested with serial number, style, dba etc of my present inoperable dishwasher. I have tried repeatedly to reach her to talk again, with only to be told over & over, that she is unavailable. I received a call 2 days ago saying $246.00 was indeed the amount I would receive. I asked 2 different case managers if they would give me the serial number of a dishwasher from Lowe's for that amount offered me, I would buy it. They answered with the monologue written script once again....

    You asked me to be fair in my review. Now, I am asking you to please be fair and see that this e-mail gets to the proper executive handing all disputable claims. In fact, I respectfully request to hear in writing from that Executive giving me an acceptable replacement amount. Please don't insult my intelligence by trying to convince me that this settlement is FAIR so please be fair with me.
