From initiating the claim, to me having to reschedule, to the service performed; everything was awesome. Didn’t believe in the home warranty system but it has worked and is paying dividends. I couldn’t be happier and will recommend this service to anyone who is considering going this route!

We noticed a problem with our clothes washer on 10/14/2022. It took a little while but Friday evening we were notified of an appointment for a technician come out and take a look at our dryer on 10/17/2022. The technician came out on Monday and that a great experience. Once selecting to receive a Lowe's gift card to replace the broken washer I was made aware that it could take up to 30 days to get the gift card emailed to me. This is quite horrifying as we spent $80 at the laundromat yesterday. I have no idea when the gift card will come within the next 30 days. I don't know how a family of 5 can go without of a clothes washer for a month. This does not seem reasonable and not what I was expecting when we enrolled in this service. I wonder how long we would have to wait to get service and repair/replacement on the heating system in the middle of winter in Minnesota. The only response I got from their customer service was that they only batch out gift cards once every 30 days.

Other than the time of response/visit, which had a two day delay, other things were good and smooth. He visited and checked all potential sources of the issue to find the actual cause. The plumber was nice and attentive to the questions.

The man who came to fix my washing machine did an excellent job. I gave 3 stars - not because of his effectiveness - but I had a 10 DAY wait time for my appointment to filled. That's too long a wait to get a washing machine fixed. He was very nice and competent.

Scheduling a week in advance is marginal but the hour delay of technician is inexcusable. They don’t consider homeowners time! Technician, Sebastian could have alerted or prepared for claim buy out - and it’s minuscule compared to replacement. Overall, I’m not content with our first claim.

I recommend the repair service man that came to my home for the prompt service he provided me. I was going on a trip (October 13, 2022) and my dryer had a squeezing noise and burning smell while drying my laundry on October 10, 2022, so my husband made a call to Choice Warranty to have my dryer repaired before we leave for our trip. The original date that the repairperson was to come to my home was October 17, 2022, but we needed the repairperson to come earlier so he called customer service to see if it could be rescheduled to an earlier date due to our short notice and we were going on a trip to the mainland.
Apparently, the repairperson called my husband that he could do the repairs on October 12, 2022 after he got through with the customer in Kapolei and since he was in the area he would be able to do the work. He gave my husband a certain time he would be at my home and saved me from taking my laundry to the laundromat that was pretty far away from my home. My husband talked to the repairperson to see what else had to be done with the dryer after he got through fixing the problem and the repairperson said that he needed to change the heating element and will order the element and my husband will call the repairperson when we get back from our trip.
The repairperson went out of his way to complete my job and I would recommend the service to anyone who is looking for a warranty company. We got your company by the advertisement on TV and decided to try it out and we like it. We had Sears Warranty before because my husband was working for Sears. Their service was also good but they only did repairs on certain things and we wanted something that covered the whole home such as plumbing, electrical, air condition, refrigeration, etc. So I would recommend your company to my 2 sons should they be looking for a Home Warranty Company. Thank you and ALOHA.

Updated on 10/31/2022: After the tech submitted his report CHW notified me that my stove would be replaced. I was given $669 to accomplish that. I tried to replace my stove but the cheapest model I could find was $1399! I contacted my claim adjuster and was told there was no alternative. $669 take it or leave it and if I kept the stove I couldn’t make a claim on it until 2023. My contact says $1000 maximum but CHW reneged on the contract. I’m NOT HAPPY.
Original Review: I called in to report that my electronic panel on my stove was warped and not functioning properly. There was a wait to talk to a customer service agent but the automated phone system said they could do it and they did. I gave them all the information and they set me up with the claim. Gave me a claim number and now I’m just waiting for a call from the service technician when he comes. It’s just a co-pay no matter what he does and if he hast to come back there’s no co-pay for that.

Choice Home Warranty really is a good company. They do offer the best prices around. Even if there is an elevated price later, it's still affordable. A person can get just about anything fixed they need in their homes and not have to pay the huge prices in the end.

You guys had not even looked for a technician after a week when applying warranty, I’ve been without a water and a/c over a week. I had to go and find a technician who was great but don’t take credit for me doing CHW job. Still now I was supposed to be called back by supervisor but no call from CHW has been returned to mess promised. I’m not allowed to upload photos, and CHW refuses to go forward with repair or further correspondence. I am a tetraplegic, I should not have to do your guys' job plus I had to pay 100 dollars for tech instead of 60 dollars. Reimbursement would be nice. Having the repairs done would be better.
I’ve been over a week without water or a/c. My arms and legs don’t move. Why am I being treated like this by corporate? I was going to cancel because of treatment of earlier case of trying to turn in these maintenance issues but was rudely treated over the phone. Hung up on by CHW numerous times. Technician I got was great. Corporate handling of situation leaves a lot to be desired. Would recommend technician. CHW command structure not so much.

Technician assigned and appointment set. Technician made an assessment of the problem and ordered a part(s). I called to ask if there was anything else I needed to do and I was told a different technician would be assigned and the service co-pay would be waived for the new technician. That was over two weeks ago. The water heater is still not fixed. No other technicians have contacted me nor has CHOICE with any sort of an update. I then receive an email that states the repair/parts are unnecessary without another technician nor the original technician ever coming to the house. And as of this posting my hot water heater is still broken. I have paid well over the cost of either parts or a new water heater over the years I have been a customer.

This review is of Choice Home Warranty NOT the company they sent to repair our garage door. Choice would not confirm with the repair company if the repairs would be covered... The repairman waited approximately 20 minutes for someone from Choice to call him and then asked us to try calling. We called and were told it was, "still in the system to be reviewed" and if no one called the repairman in another 20 minutes (ridiculous!) then the company would have to come back another day to fix the issue. This is absolutely pitiful customer service. It is also not our first negative experience with Choice. Do not get your home warranty from this company. Look elsewhere.

The technician that did the work did fine. No complaints as of yet. The issues: they tack on a service fee if you pay by card. Wasn’t aware until my card was charged. Then the company could not figure out how to refund my card same day. So I paid cash but no instant receipt - had to wait on a texted receipt that came 30 minutes later. Another issue- technician has to call headquarters and read card number aloud in order to pay by card. So much for security. Not sure I would use them again because of payment issues. It’s 2022. Just give technicians a square to use for payments with the already issued company phone.

I filed a claim for my sink leaking and because I did not state that it could be the faucet leaking I have to file another claim for the faucet. My kitchen sink has been unusable for over 4 days now. Instead of filing the additional claim, the service member closed it out after assuring me that it was done and I would not have to pay the additional $65 for the second service call. I called today to find out why I had not heard from the service provider and found out the claim had been closed. I then had to file another claim for the same service. Choice Home Warranty owes me the cost of the service call if I have to pay it. I would and never will recommend this company to anyone. It is always the same, no claim ever goes smoothly or accurately. If you ask for a call back no one ever calls including the specialist if the claim is questioned.

The technician that came to my house would be highly recommended, however, the denial of my claim by CHW has left a bad taste in my mouth. The technician says that my electrical panel is a fire hazard and needs to be replaced ASAP. CHW claims it is a pre-existing condition and therefore not covered. What a scam! Everything can be claimed to be pre-existing if not brand new! Technician was great!

Contacted Choice Home Warranty via the website, only had to inform them what the problem was and shortly thereafter received a response to my service request. An appointment date and time was set up at that time with a local company. They arrived at the earliest time covered by their time frame. Beats waiting hours within the given time frame. Once the technician arrived he quickly discovered that the whole unit would need to be replaced. The unit was replaced with a "same as" unit. He was courteous and professional. Thanks, Choice!!!

tl;dr: They're covering the replacement of my furnace, but gave me the run-around after a misleading link caused me to approve paying $900 with no additional information as to why.
It was easy to submit a claim and the tech was great. Choice approved the claim to replace my furnace, but I was told I needed to pay $900. Clicked a link that said "learn more" and it said I approved the charges. Took about 5 hours on the phone with Choice and tech to figure out what those charges were for. There was no way to see through the customer portal what the charges were for, and no way to directly contact someone who could tell me - I had to call support who had to put in a request with a case manager, who then emailed me to set up a time to have a phone call, and all of this was after clicking a misleading link where I tried to learn why I was being charged $900 only to be told I'd approved those charges.
Now that I understand it, I am agreeing to the charges (Choice is paying for the furnace and labor, but not any of the changes to ducting, etc. necessary to install the furnace because those items aren't covered), but the quality of the customer portal interface and the service was not great. Still waiting on the furnace, and the tech said Choice can take a while on that as well. If it was just the extra charge, I'd be willing to give 5 stars. I get that warranty companies have to draw a line somewhere on what's covered. But the quality of service drops it to at most 3 stars for me.

We have 3 experiences using our Choice Home Warranty. Accent Homes is an awesome contractor that serviced our swimming pool. At 1st we were assigned to Neal's swimming pool service. That is probably the 1st and last time he has ever been referred to anyone. Long story. Choice reassigned us to Accent Homes. JR and Casey are awesome. 5-Star! Accent Homes should be the only contractor that is referred for swimming pool repair in our area. Our dishwasher broke down and we were assigned to County Refrigeration. Tony, Joe and Dayno are great. They replaced the motherboard which fixed most of the problems and will now be putting in a new heating element.
We had an issue with our above-ground hot tub and found out that the above-ground hot tub was not covered. We had bought the 6-year plan. The resolution department very quickly and very easily refunded the entire amount for the spa portion. From my memory, they might have refunded more than what we had paid for the hot tub coverage. That refund more than covered the cost of the repair to the hot tub.

My water heater went out in one of my properties. My tenant moved out 9/30 but reported seeing water before they left. I advised them to continue moving and I will fix the issue after they leave, to avoid anyone being in the way as they moved. As soon as they left, I called Choice Home Warranty and made a claim, but it was immediately denied in less than 24 hours. Since the house was vacant when the plumber that they contracted arrived, my water heater was not covered by Choice Home Warranty due to the property being unoccupied. I tried to dispute this decision but couldn't get anyone to call me back.
I was consistently told that my situation was escalated and that someone would call me back same day and then 24 hours. The “no callbacks” were a major inconvenience as I am having a new tenant move in 10/15. This happened twice before I decided to cancel my policy as it didn't make sense to pay for a policy with no coverage being rendered. My husband believes that home warranties are frauds, and I was hoping to convince him since I believed all our properties could benefit from a warranty. However, this was a complete let down and I will never do business with Choice again!

We just switched to Choice Home Warranty after being customers of American Home Shield for 18 years. We decided to shop around since our monthly fee was raised significantly for this next contract year with AHS. We waited out our one month after signing with Choice Home warranty for coverage and then cancelled our contract with AHS. Within a week, we started using our heater due to dropping temperatures in the evenings. Within a few days, we noticed our heater no longer heating and we called Choice with our first repair claim. We received a service provider within a few days. He had to locate a part to come back to finish the repair. Once he replaced the part, it worked for a little bit and then stopped again.
He realized the problem was a part that had a crack in it. Because the unit is older and the part was irreplaceable, he put in a request to Choice to replace the heating unit. He got back a denial, within minutes, while still at our home. We had the option to dispute the claim. We submitted a statement for dispute and were assigned a “dedicated” case manager that we had a phone appointment with. We received the phone call, not from our case manager, but another lady who I believe was listed as a coordinator for the phone call. As if by a script, she continued to say it must have been a preexisting condition and that the unit must be in working order to be covered and, therefore, they wouldn’t cover it.
This is after explaining that the unit was in working condition up until the day it stopped and we called them. We also explained that we had a home warranty for 18 years and always had maintained and kept it in working condition. There is no way to say when the crack occurred, but apparently it’s not their problem. So, we are now buying and installing a new furnace, out of pocket, for replacement. It’s unfortunately that we decided to switch from American Home Shield and very disappointing for our first claim with Choice. It looks like if there’s a loophole to not provide service, they’re going to use it and stick to it.
