Everything from start to finish went well. This was my first call to Choice Home Warranty. Within minutes the appointment was made..then confirmed ..and the repairman (Matt) called when he was on his way. Very nice and professional. So much easier than trying to find service on my own. Matt deserves 5 stars and I'd give him more if I could. Thanks CHW for your fine service.

I was amazed that a technician was scheduled the SAME DAY I contacted Choice about my dishwasher issue. The technician was very thorough and did an excellent job. I am extremely pleased with the quality of service. I am a new customer and have had terrible service with another company. Choice is the way to go.

Have waited one week with no air conditioner! I understand COVID delays the process; however, if a CHW rep told me "this will take more than just a few days, maybe up to 5-7 days," then I would be much more satisfied with my CHW experience. Communication was extremely poor. I contacted and was much happier with the company who will be fixing my AC, she communicates WELL. Also, I have to pay $525 - ??

Mervin's A/C & Heating came out and found my unit was low on freon. This is the THIRD SUMMER I have had to get someone out to put in freon. The inside unit (coils) needs to be replaced, NOT recharged every year! Mervin's submitted paperwork indicating the coils need replacing. When the freon is low the coils freeze over and condensation drips everywhere causing more damage. I pay CHW monthly in case I have problems with things. IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED CORRECTLY ONCE AND FOR ALL! It will eventually destroy my heating unit costing double the cost. I'm NOT HAPPY RIGHT NOW!

Updated on 08/15/2020: I posted a review of this company the end of last month. I stated that our air conditioner needed to be taken care of and was service on July 7th. It was determined that the air-conditioner needed Freon which is no longer available. We paid Choice Warranty $994.00 on July 13 to take care of our air conditioner. Since July 13,2020 to date, we have had no response via email, text, or phone from this company. Both my husband and I called daily. My daughter called. Since my first post resulted in THE ONLY response from the company on July 30, 2020. (They said they would be looking into resolving this problem.), I felt that I needed to inform the public about our experience. Consumers need to hear how they treat their policy holders claims.
We are 70 and 72 years old and are living in Florida. The heat index has been over 100 degrees for many days since our air conditioner stopped functioning. Since it is obvious that they don't care, or plan to do anything, we are requesting that they refund our $994.00 and home warranty money that we paid in June for this policy. We request this money in the form of a check (we have closed the credit card account it was charged to). With the return of our money, we will be able to at least purchase some window units so we can tolerate the rest of our summer.
Original: Our air conditioner went out a month ago. The service technician told us that it could not be serviced because it required a certain type of freon which is no longer available. After many, many, many calls with many, many people one of them agreed that if we paid them $900 that they would fix the air conditioning system. We sent them the money. We haven't been able to reach anyone regarding the instillation date. We still do not have an air conditioner and we are out $900. We live in Florida. The heat index has been over 100 degrees outside. They obviously are hoping that we go away. I will continue to leave messages on their answering machine. Hopefully, whoever reads this review will keep this in mind when they decide to take out a warranty with them.

During these uncertain times, when my air conditioner stopped cooling I was concerned how long will it take to get it repaired. After submitting a ticket on Sunday evening 7/19/2020. I prepared for a long wait. On Monday 7/20 CHW contacted me letting me know they was working on getting service personnel out as soon as possible. Much like I expected. But I never expected it to be the very next day. Wow sure enough a service personnel from Tristar HVAC & Maintenance was scheduled to repair my unit 7/21. I could not have been happier. The repair person was on time, courteous, efficient and I'm sitting in a cool home despite the uncertain times. Thank you CHW for going above and beyond my expectations.

I initially completed a claim online for a service call for my water heater which was 18 years old. After the 2nd call for no hot water it was determined I needed a new unit. My assigned plumber did a great job getting everything coordinated with Choice Warranty and within 48 hours I had a new unit installed.

Dishwasher was apparently working (according to Home Inspection) just prior to us purchasing our town-home. We finally decided to run it the other day, and it did not function at all. Repair crew took unit apart and determined that water from this 14-year-old dishwasher must have leaked into the electrical panel and ruined the circuits. Our claim was DENIED due the "water-damage", even though it from an internal malfunction. We are very, very disappointed by this ruling.

They claim within 24 hours you will get a service email for an appointment. I called in on a Friday for no AC. I ended up having to hire my own company come in and pay out of my pocket. I called in three days later to have someone come out and complete the repair that’s costing $2000 and still five days later I still don’t have a service guy to fix my AC. They want me to pay it out of my pocket and they will reimburse me.

On Tuesday afternoon our air conditioner quit working. We were doing some remodeling work and he had turned of the breaker. I called Choice Home Warranty and told the representative That I had a special needs son and really needed it fixed ASAP. They sent me a name and a time frame for the repair. The repair man called me before 10am and asked if he could come early. So when he got there he did an inspection on our unit and then he wanted to see our electricity Box. And he found out there was a mistake in labeling the breakers. I bought a 5 yr plan and have been happy with them. Sue **

The tech was great, arrived in window. Choice Warranty, however, placed a date of parts arrival of a week and a half for a refrigerator that was not cooling below 64 degrees. A rush should be placed on parts for such an item, as it is an emergency. The service turn around after they receive the parts is two days, earlier if they get the parts. All in all, we will be without a cooling refrigerator for almost 2 weeks. Not ok.

He replied promptly and answered my questions without any pressure selling, which allowed me the time to make the decision that I did and subscribe to your service.

I've been a customer for years now but on the verge of finding a new warranty company. My experience has not been great. My most recent visit the technician was very pleasant and knowledgeable. However, it took 6 days to have service. In the past I've had no show technicians, technician diagnose the incorrect issue, etc. Covid did not cause the delay in getting service because this seems like the norm for Choice. I've experienced this since having this policy. If you want to improve your customer service experience change how the technician responds to request. If a technician pulls the order and can't provide service within a few days it should be left opened for someone who could. Service response times is very important to a customers and they shouldn't have to call customer service and request they reopen the ticket because they need service more immediately.

Updated on 08/15/2020: I posted my Choice Experience with reimbursement on July 27 and was immediately acknowledged by Choice who elevated the complaint to Director of Consumer Relations. There has been no follow up since. In short Choice lowballed a dishwasher replacement and did not cover the installation.
Updated on 08/07/2020: Posted complaint on July 27.... Choice responded immediately to acknowledge and kick upstairs to consumer affairs.... there has been no response from consumer affairs.... I did get a phone call back to follow up on an issue reported 10 days prior. Was told that consumer affairs closed the file.... I informed agent that there had been no contact from consumer affairs and they really needed to contact me by phone.... no additional contact has been made.
Original review: I purchased a 5 year product for approx $2,300. Have had 2 claims in 3 years... water heater replaced but Choice did not cover installation..this claim was a 4 year old dishwasher. Tech came out quickly replaced board and motor. Recommended replacement which Choice agreed to. So far so good. The unit is an Electrolux which I have the paperwork and cost $880 for unit without installation/tax. Today it retails for $1,400. First offer was $535 which I rejected and spoke with caseworker Yvette ** who was excellent however her hands are tied.
My points of disagreement is your contract states you pay for installation. I purchased from Lowes a Bosch for $678 plus parts, installation and taxes come to about $850. In speaking with Yvette Choice did not choose their option to replace and install and placed the burden on me. In short that's the second time the installation has been rejected by Choice. You offered a wholesale price and placed the turd in my lap to fix. I am not happy. I accepted the offer of $585 and was told I could have a check in 3-4 weeks. I believe you have made poor choices as to the remedy of the issue and should adjust further. Also the old dishwasher is in my house with new board and motor that could be returned for credit. I am done now.... if you care to discuss further I can be reached at **. Steve

The customer service representative and technician were very helpful. But, I feel that the coverage was misleading... your ad states that the unit will be repaired or replaced no matter the age or brand. THAT STATEMENT IS NOT TRUE. I WILL NOT RENEW MY COVERAGE AND I WILL NOT RECOMMEND YOUR SERVICE TO ANYONE. You did not pay for freon, coil, duct, copper, drain, flush, filter, driers, drain, disposal. Surely all of these items would be necessary in the full replacement of the unit. VERY MISLEADING...

I've been using CHW for more than 5 years now, mostly good experiences. They hire local vendors/technicians to get the job done. Most vendors are good to work with, but you'll always get a few technicians that are less experienced (or don't want to do the job), and doesn't accurately pin-point the real issue, and your claim gets denied by CHW, and then you're forced to hire a contractor yourself. I guess this is the nature of the business.

We purchased Choice Home Warranty and unfortunately were talked into buying a 2-year plan. In searing heat (90s) our air conditioner stopped producing cold air. It has been 2 weeks and every day I receive an email that they are still "searching for a tech." There are many, many companies in the Denver, CO area. I've called 17 local ones, and all are available for immediate appointments and quick repairs (none work with Choice). Obviously Choice does not work with any local companies. They also refuse to give me the name of any local providers, though they say they exist... At this point I will initiate a chargeback with American Express for the $1,190 I paid for this warranty and $400 for my condo as Choice is not providing techs for claims if no tech is assigned by this weekend. It is absolutely unacceptable to let people sit in their home for 2 weeks with a broken air conditioner in 90+ degree heat.

I filed a claim on May 16 because our air-conditioning stopped working. Choice sent out the technician. The technician tried to repair the air-conditioning unit on May 29 and determined there was a major leak on the unit that was 20 years old and needed replaced. Choice did not contact me until June 5 by email and stated that the technician cannot do the work because of a Covid related illness. I was very concerned that someone with Covid was in my house. The customer representative at Choice did not think the email stating that was a big deal. I called the technician myself and he stated that he did not tell Choice that anybody in the company had Covid and that he submitted a claim stating that the air-conditioning needed replaced.
On June 5 I chose the reimbursement option and had my own technician come in and look at the air-conditioning unit because Choice sent me several emails and could not find a technician in our area. The technician came out on June 5 and said the air-conditioning unit needed replaced and we scheduled a date of July 20 to have the air replaced. Choice was informed of this that day. From June 5 until today July 23 choice continues to give me the runaround and keep stating they don’t have a diagnosis for the invoice from the technician. I emailed diagnosis and invoice on June 23 I have email confirmation from Choice. From June 5 to June 23 Choice played games with the reimbursement claim link on the email and it took them that long for someone to contact me for me to submit diagnosis an invoice to Choice.
I heard nothing from Choice until July 1. I received an email stating the Nicole ** was the case manager assigned to the claim. I called and left a voicemail and emailed Nicole ** every day until she finally returned my call on July 10. She stated that she did not have a diagnosis or an invoice. I explained it was already submitted on June 25 and I received a confirmation email. After getting the runaround from her explaining that the air-conditioning was scheduled to be replaced on July 20. I submitted her diagnosis and invoice again to her on July 10 and received an email confirmation. I also asked to speak to her manager.
Nicole said the diagnosis was not enough and I gave her the name and number of the technician at her request. Nicole spoke to the technician on July 15 for 40 minutes and the link that she asked him to click on and complete the diagnosis did not work. She took the information from the technician told him she had everything she needed if she didn’t she would call him back. She called me on July 17 and told me that exactly. She also said that they would have a decision on the claim in a few hours. I did not hear from Choice although I sent her emails and voicemails everyday until today July 23.
July 23, Latasha ** called me and she stated she was a manager. LaTasha let me know that they did not receive a diagnosis!!! She said there was no records of any of the conversations that went on with Nicole **, although I sent her all of the emails. I was very frustrated speaking with Latasha and I forwarded her the email was sent on June 25 and July 10 with the diagnosis and invoice. Latasha was very rude and condescending. She kept saying the diagnosis was not sufficient and there was no record that Nicole spoke to a technician to get this. She kept saying the diagnosis was not sufficient and then there was no record that Nicole spoke to a technician to get the situation clarified. I sent the diagnosis and invoice to her for the third time and requested a different manager call me back.
Latasha was incredibly rude!! I had to hang up on her three times and three times she called me back and tried to argue, but I refused. Latasha now has the information and is reviewing the claim again and I’m waiting to hear from Choice. I am simply asking that Choice honor the contract that we have and pay for the air-conditioning to be repaired!!

Updated on 7/28/2020: I am still trying to get our money back due to the fact they never sent service out to our house to fix our air condition unit. Had to plea with a company who service the air condition at my husband job because since we cancelled our warranty on our unit to use Choice Home warranty we had no one to rely on except Home Choice Warranty. All others in the area were not taking on new customers. We waited on Home Choice Warranty from July 12th until July 23rd. With the heatwave while waiting on them we had to purchase 2 window units and with having a big house they still didn't do as they should. We paid someone else to come out and service the until on the 22nd and they came out on the 23rd.
After getting in touch with the BBB and posting a complaint they told us again they were sending someone out after we had got it fixed. They refuse to give us back our money and want to give us less than what we had to go through financially, physically and mentally. My Dr. appointments increased due to the fact that I have COPD, LUPUS, Heart problems and was in the hospital in May and June. My husband works 3 jobs trying to keep me alive and healthy. I am on disability. We told them all we want is what is fair and that is all the money we paid to them for all these years and this was our first time calling them and they failed. They broke the contract not us. They told me they couldn't do that. By the time we pay medical bills and with what we spent in units and healthcare well exceeds what we have paid. $44 a month since 2017. Now tell me, am I asking too much.
Original review: I have been having this contract since 2017. Called on July 12 for service with my air condition and still have not had any service. They keep telling me someone is coming and no one ever comes and they will not help me with my problem. They want me to do the leg work for them and they still are lying about someone coming. I don't want to but I have to other choice but to sue for all the years I paid. On top of that we had to go buy 2 window units because they will not come and most of the local companies are not taking on new clients. I had a company but let them go to deal with this company who will not service. I wish I had kept what I had in 2017. I am old and sickly and the heat has made matters worse.

I called your company to report broken A/C unit. A claim was processed and technician reported 21 July. He performed troubleshooting and found a leak in the compressor coolant line. He reported that cause was wear and tear, and after an hour waited for response from CHW. Your company disapproved repairs and stated for reason that CHW felt the cause was not due to "wear and TEAR", The technician refused to repair. I am a disabled American veteran with bad heart and have been told the HEAT is bad, and it is now 96 F in my house. I have borrowed a room A/C for my bedroom and cannot handle this heat. I called a supervisor to discuss, she could not help and said it would be referred to case manager. I called on 22 July and have not heard back.
If CHW is denying coverage because you claim it is not Normal Wear and tear? Then what caused the line to leak! In other words if you are claiming something else, then what are you claiming caused the leak? Why didn't you allow the technician to repair leak and finish diagnostics to find actual CAUSE???? Your company is denying a claim and you caNNOT TELL ME WHAT caused the leak.... and I am left in a house that is unbearable for my health. If I have to I will file lawsuit to complete troubleshooting and affix repairs and then report this to the BBB and I will document on Media (internet) what you have done to this ELDERLY VETERAN....

A couple of things;
1. Highly satisfied with Douglas as he helped me with my renewal. He did an excellent job!
2. I had a situation with claims that I unwittingly failed to get authorization for. No exception was granted for a reimbursement. I understand that the "policy" is that authorization needs to come from you, but someone else called Roto Rooter on my behalf and by the time I found out, they had already come out and done the work. The amount was $196.50 and I felt that with the small amount of reimbursement ($196.50 - $65 normal service charge = $ $131.50) that there would be an exception made. I was seriously disappointed when I spoke to two different representatives and they gave me a cursory response that nothing could be done. I just signed up for a 3 year extension and have been a good client so far, so I would think that as a matter of good client service this wouldn't be a big deal. I want to stay with you all, but that hurt your chances. Thank you.

I am extremely dissatisfied with Choice Home warranty. My first claim was denied because they said my air conditioning unit did not break from regular wear and tear. The unit was from 1981. My next claims were my washer and dryer. Choice told me I would only have to pay one service fee for the same technician to come on the same day. They charged me the fee twice. The dryer couldn't be repaired, so they offered me $299 to replace it. I can not find a gas dryer for $299. I tried to dispute this and could not get in touch with my case manager for a week. I accepted the $299 because I can't wash clothes, only to find out it will take 30 days for me to receive a check. I have had Home Shield in the past and loved them. I would never use this home warranty company again.

I have not had the best experience with Choice Home Warranty. I was with another company for many years and I heard about this one through a recommendation so I thought I would give them a try. Well, I wish I hadn't because nothing is covered. There are more exclusions than coverage and when I did finally file a claim where something was covered, of course they are trying to find a loophole to say it is not covered.
The Case Manager I am working with advised me they do not assume damage and rely on their technicians that come out to report the situation. When that happened, they are basing their decision on pictures and telling me what the technician reported and what I am telling them happened, could not be. They are going against what the technician sent in and what I am telling them happened. When I questioned the Case Manager, her words to me where "Common Sense will tell you that the damage is not due to how both the technician and I am describing it". Now, they are in the business of assuming as she stated they were not from our first conversation.
Although the claim was partially denied, they want to offer $200 to offset the cost as a consolation prize. That is just a ploy to try and not cover the full job. They did however approve one piece of the claim but denied the rest which makes no sense to me. I have been told by several of the technicians who they sent out on one of my three claims that I haven't been with them long enough for them to cover big jobs, you have to be with them more than a few years for them to get their money worth. Out of the three claims, I got one partially covered when it should be fully covered. I would not recommend this company based on my personal experience with them.

My claim was a front load washer on pedestal. The replacement they suggested is a different brand (a good one) which doesn’t bolt to my original pedestal. So that has to be replaced also.

Updated on 11/06/2020: Choice Home Warranty refused to pay repair expenses on a brand new AC Heating Unit that they selected to be installed in my home July 23, 2020. We recently discovered that the heat was not working due to a defective gas valve and control board. Choice denied the claim. The following rationale was provided by Choice Home Warranty.
"Your claim was submitted on 11/04/20 and was assigned to ALLSTAR HEATING & COOLING INC. on 11/05/20. After the appointment date on 11/05/20 the technician submitted details pertaining to your system failure. It has been determined that there were no failures with the air conditioning unit at the time of service. The gas valve in the furnace is defective. Failure of the gas valve has also damaged the control board. Valves for heating systems are not covered under this user agreement."
I spoke with a manager at Choice Home Warranty on 11/6/20 at 2:00 pm explaining that the AC Heating Unit was purchased in July - through Choice Home Warranty. Choice Home Warranty continued to deny responsibility for repairs. During this conversation on 11/6/20 the manager (Gina) stated that the claim was denied because an incorrect gas valve was installed on the unit! Again, we did not select the unit or the contractor! This was done exclusively by Choice Home Warranty and we continue to suffer the consequences. Choice Home Warranty refused to pay for associated repair cost. My overall experience with this company has been a negative 5.
Original Review: CONSUMER BEWARE! I submitted a claim on June 25, 2020 for AC repair. Choice scheduled a contractor to inspect AC unit on June 29, 2020. On June 30, 2020 we received email notification that our claim was approved for repairs/replacement, and we acknowledged expenses we would have to pay ($700.00). On July 2, 2020 we received another email from Choice Home Warranty that listed additional expenses which were significantly more than what were provided in the June 30, 2020 email ($1787). We immediately inquired about the additional expenses and was assigned a case manager, who was impossible to reach!
After a week of unresponsive emails and voice messages to the case manager, she finally called with an explanation of additional charges. The payment was made during that phone call. We were told that the equipment should be delivered no more than 3 days. Today we are still without AC in our home, and it is nearly a month since we submitted the claim. I have called and emailed Choice Home Warranty daily, and no one has provided an explanation for delays. One of the representatives that I spoke to on July 13, 2020 indicated that the equipment was delivered to the assigned contractor on July 10, 2020. I called the contractor, and their office indicated that they did not have the inventory and would have to research the matter.
The latest explanation given today (July 21, 2020) was, "We don't know, and will need to contact the distributor." I asked to speak with someone who could tell me when I could expect the AC unit to be delivered and installed. No response provided. I also inquired about a refund and/or to speak to the distributor and was told those were not options! I would not recommend Choice Home Warranty to anyone. Aforementioned, we have been without AC for approximately 1 month, and without reasonable answers from Choice Home Warranty. I am so frustrated with this company, and have exhausted every means to have the matter resolved. No one in this company seems to care that I paid annual fees for the last 4 years, plus additional fees for the purchase of the replacement AC unit and installation! I have been given a huge runaround, and there seems to be no end in sight! I will no longer do business with Choice Home Warranty.
In a recent review of your claim, our records show that your technician has confirmed an appointment for 7/23/2020.

Purchasing Home Warranty. The agent was very helpful and knowledgable. He helped me find exactly what I need and explained all of the benefits. I would recommend this company to all of my friends and family. It is a great deal for military veterans.

The company could not find a service person to make the repairs & offered to have me find my own which I did. In order to get reimbursed the tech had to fill out information online & submit then wait for approval. The tech filled out the information several times but the submission would not go to the company. An error kept popping up. After several tries the tech and me making a phone call to customer service to no avail the tech had to leave & I paid him. I made another call to customer service and they called back several minutes later & had no idea what the problem was. He said he would find someone to help but I got disconnected & tried recalling only to be told AGAIN to wait for a call back. This system of reimbursement does NOT work and CHW can’t expect technicians to wait until the form goes through (which it didn't) then get approval for repairs. Ridiculous!
I’ve used CHW two time before with the company finding a tech for me & all went smoothly. I understand the Covid issue but CHW needs to understand the technical issues & wait times does not provide the customer with an outcome for reimbursement if the submission online & customer service is no help! I hope CHW understands if a customer is lucky enough to get service in a timely manner these days someone from customer service needs to be there for approval without submission online. I have previously given a 5 star rating but am not happy at all with CHW. The technician had it diagnosed & fixed within minutes. Had this been an expensive repair he would have had to leave without fixing it!

Dishwasher issues. It was easy to get the appointment. The tech was on time, efficient and thorough. He gave a suggestion that I followed up on two days later. Good experience. I have no complaints. I am very satisfied. You are pushing your luck now.

I really appreciated the friendliness of Eli and that he was not constantly telling me about how highly rated the program is in comparison to others. I do wish the policy was slightly cheaper and that perhaps there could be a brief discussion of common issues that people discover later as not part of the policy. It is difficult to read through so much information, and therefore just having a couple of common ones available to know is incredibly helpful. For example, I asked about roof coverage, which was well explained, and I wish more items were available in explanation in this way. I hope I made the best decision and that if I need to use my policy, Choice does not let me down.

Just purchase a policy for a rental property. Salesman was polite & professional. Not as aggressive as previous salesman. That goes a long way with customers. It would have been a no deal for me. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY TO ANYONE who are in need of home coverage. The prices are GREAT. It ONLY TOOK TEN MINUTES TO COMPLETE.

This was the 1st time I needed Choice. Worst experience I have had. The plumber never showed up or called. Your customer service rep did nothing until I finally reached a manager who also did nothing. All they do is read your policy and refuse to help until I said I will call the president. I stayed home all day waiting for this plumber who never showed. Your people never cared about that. Finally after being on the phone with your manager for about 1 hour he agreed if they could not get find another plumber in 24 hours they would agree to allow us to find our own technician.
Luckily a plumber who just joined on with Choice called and showed up on time and did the repair. This technician was excellent and very professional. You're not doing your company any favors by using the 1st plumber. He has been written up by several members on a local website regarding not showing up or calling. You can find all our communication on your website that will identify all the people I talked with and the names of both technicians.

Needed to replace my old dishwasher and they did without a hitch. Received a check to get a new dishwasher which will cover half the amount of a new one. I feel this is fair as my dishwasher was over 20 years old! No arguing, parts weren't available and would have cost more than the old dishwasher was worth.

AC repair. He was very friendly, smart and a hard worker and kept me informed of all that he was working on. He told me that if things were not working, I would have thirty days to contact him, otherwise, we could make a new claim.

Choice Home Warranty responded quickly to arrange an appointment for a technician to come to our home. Green Earth Home Comfort contacted us as well as CHW to remind us of set appointment. 11-3 on Friday. Day of we were home all day. Technician had not come. At 3:30 I called GEHC to ask if a technician was still coming. I was told the technician was still on another job and it was running over and that it would be later when he could come to my house. GEHC said they would call the technician and see what his schedule was looking like and they would call me back. I never received a call back. We were waiting anticipating a courtesy call or a technician to arrive. Neither one occurred that day or the next.
Choice Home Warranty emailed saying they were waiting on the technician's report to finish processing my claim. I emailed to let them know GEHC did not come out. CHW said they would contact them. Which they did and arranged an appointment for the next day. The technician arrived promptly as scheduled. I appreciated that he went by the no contact guidelines and wore a mask and used hand sanitizer. He diagnosed the problem and it was an easy repair. He was both personable and professional.
