I spoke with Kris, she was kind, thorough, funny and very may genuine. I'm happy that I was able to speak with her as she was very helpful in setting up my service call. Thank you for having helpful, knowledgeable, friendly associates on the other end of the phone to assist those of us who may be a bit frustrated with our appliances.

This is the second time I have had this warranty. I haven’t used it yet but I hope when I do use it that I don’t have any problems. The price seems fair. I spoke to a guy and he gave me a good service fee price.

The technician was good & was thorough in trying to find my problem, however I very dissatisfied with the choice warranty because they sent me an email denying the claim because I'm told it not wear & tear. If you have done nothing to cause a problem & something breaks for use, what do you call that. Very disappointed.

We received status that our claim was covered and nothing is being paid except labor. What is the point of having a warranty if you’re not going to cover anything that you say is covered. I’m so very sorry that this occurred because I can’t explain to my husband the reason for keeping this policy if we’re being denied with no explanation.

Hi, We were offered a free inspection by our Electrical Company. When they came, they found that the “run canister”, was not operating and it needed to be repaired. So I made an attempt to speak to someone at Choice to see if it would qualify for a repair. I could not ever get a person to speak to, so I set up a claim, thinking I could talk to the person when they called to set an appointment. The call to set up the appointment was also a voice mail, so I canceled the appointment, thinking I would have to pay $65 to get my question answered on top of repairs if it wasn’t covered, so we just paid the electric company to repair the a/c. Needless to say, it was a frustrating situation. Please give your customers a way to speak to a person with questions, and not just a computer.

Great prompt service. Professional service technician. Communication was excellent. Kept the customer updated on arrival time. Problem solved without complaining. Payment was made easy. We’ll certainly recommend this company. Other repair and maintenance companies did not find the gas shut-off valve. This technician located it immediately without too much effort. Made recommendations to add louvers to the door to allow fresh air intake in order to keep the water heater pilot lit at all times otherwise it will go off and will have to start with another service call and arrange for another appointment. So the part was replaced without any complications and now we have hot water.

They have failed to come through as they should have, most recently with the Air Conditioner condenser coils. The plenum got wet, so they denied the claim on the equipment that was causing the plenum to have gotten wet. This is the first review I plan on putting out there, unless they rectify this. Prior to renewing my home’s “warranty”, I asked specifically about it covering the air conditioning system, and I was told they would, well, that has been a lie, thus far.

I've had this warranty almost a year. Did not expect any problems, but unfortunately our dishwasher died. I had to find someone and pay the bill myself because they couldn't find anyone. The dishwasher was beyond repair so they offered me about $250 to buy a new one. You can't touch ANYTHING for anywhere near that price. They finally agreed to give me $600, which still wasn't enough. Next my fridge stopped chilling. They sent out a great technician from Sears Appliance Repair who quoted just over $800 to fix it (retail cost to fix would be almost $3,000). They flat out denied it claiming that we misused the fridge causing a part to break and that caused other parts to go bad.
We are retired adults who know how to use a refrigerator. We believe that when a previous repair was done on the fridge (several years ago), that technician probably broke the piece but it was never noticed. Then, several years later, the unit starts breaking down. But no discussion, just a flat out denial. We have one other claim that a tech is coming out for this week. Guess we'll see what excuse they use to deny that one, too. I would recommend anyone looking for a home warranty company to find a different one. I will not be renewing my warranty when it expires.

Having Choice Home Warranty, I like being able to get things fixed. Sometimes it's not as quick as I like for it to happen, but it eventually happens. I haven't been dissatisfied, but twice, I got dissatisfied with their service. But overall, it's doing okay. I had a problem with my air conditioning. It took them two weeks to get it back up and running. We were suffering in the house with heat for a couple of weeks. Once they came out, they diagnosed it and then they had to order the part. But once they got the part, they came out the next day. I had to make a second call 'cause something else happened after the first people came out. So they had to come out again a month later. It's doing okay right now.

Don't waste your money on this scam company. They will most likely fix your faucet for $85 service call fee which you could pay directly to some handyman and get the same fix, but if some major stuff blows out forget about it. Water collection pan in my AC air handler rusted and leaking water which eventually shuts down the unit. Tech who came didn't bother to check the pan material even though I insisted and put his notes that it "cracked" assuming it was plastic.
CHW was happy to reject my case due to "damage or misuse/abuse" stating if plastic cracked it was due to some damage. No matter how I tried to convince them it was a steel one indeed, nobody cared - they had a formal reason to decline coverage. I heard many baseless statements from their service managers about "non-moving parts not covered", "that part not covered" etc which was lies since their agreement boldly states "all AC parts are covered if failure occurred due to normal wear and tear".
What is rusting if not wear and tear? How can you prevent a metal piece exposed to water 24x7 by design from rusting? What kind of maintenance would have prevented this? Nobody cared to pick up a phone and actually call that tech who put initial notes in. Assigned case managers were helpless, not sure what their function is if they have neither interest nor power in the claim process. To wrap it up, they will make up any silly excuse you can or can't imagine to deny your claim if it's significant.

Technician called and stated 15 mins away, arrived on time. He diagnosed the issue, took the appropriate corrective action. He also looked at the cold air return filter, made a suggestion. Collected his fee, and left. Tech was clean, courteous and knowledgeable. **As for the CHW itself, they need to get their act together in regards to purging data, so as to NOT assign a company that no longer works with them. The 48 hour rule is not hard and fast, and when you try to get to a decision maker you are promised a call back in 24 hours... another day wasted... then they are offering to reimburse you, if you pay out of pocket and will take 30 days... So what am I paying for.**

The plumbing company and Technician were great! I was just surprised about the value that Choice Warranty puts on items that need to be replaced. When I purchased the warranty the sales person over the phone told me that they would place an item with the current value but I don’t agree that Choice does that. I was also told by Adam the sales person that on an HVAC system that Choice would replace the system at a 100% if they couldn’t fix it and when I questioned that, he said yes a 100% but when I got the contract it states 3,000 that Choice would pay out the most. I felt that I was given incorrect information on how this warranty works but I thought this situation was handled well and I am pleased. We will see how the next situation is handled. Thank you!

The appointment wasn't made until Monday morning (4 days after). I asked if I could call around and make an appointment on my own sooner and be able to submit it through the Warranty claim, but they said no which I thought was poor customer service due to the urgency of the situation.

This is the 4th time, (that I can recall) Choice has sent a technician. I spoke with 2 case managers within the last month and I have been very disappointed with the service I have received. From choice denying payment of freon upon technician's assessment, to them approving a week after I had already paid for the insertion of the freon myself and the same case manager telling me that if the unit were lacking 15% or more of freon then they would pay for a leak check and that she would check with technician but did not get back with me; to a different case manager telling me that approval of a new unit had been decided and is needed, however a leak check is not needed.
Btw, the last technician came yesterday and said the unit had TOO MUCH freon by 2 lbs which coincidentally is the exact same amount the previous technician put in. For some reason Choice is either sending incompetent technicians or they have surmised that I do not know anything about HVAC systems. With all of these service visits, no one has been able to determine without equivocation, what the actual problem is. The same unit has had "pressure" issues according to 3 different technicians but no one has done due diligence to ascertain the problem and then 'recheck' the pressure after they have supposedly fixed the problem and this is all very frustrating.
