    If you haven’t allowed years to build up with them before you place an order they won’t cover anything!! It’s best to join Choice if you have a brand new house. If your house is an older home like mines. With things expected to already be old and worn when you start the service with choice. They will not cover anything at all!!! Due to the item already being old and worn out!! Which makes no sense when it’s an older home. Go somewhere else. Choice isn’t it for me and my family!! I had a WAY better outcome with Landmark. I just didn’t care for their some of their service providers. But I never experienced these issues.

    Not pleased with the lack of care and concern by CHW regarding my complaints about the previous company that came out to service my washer. To add insult to injury after saying I did not want that company back out, CHW sent the work order to them and they NO-SHOWED on May 29, 2020. I thought that maybe out of good faith that company might would make things right but they did not. I guess my time isn’t as valuable as others.

    Hello! I have contacted CHW multiple times with detailed accounts of my A/C not working. I receive more times than not, generated messages as the response. In addition, the company CHW sends out, Lynnco, HAS NOT accurately diagnosed the problem. The first time Lynnco came, they said the unit needed a new power board. When they came the second time to install the power board, they determined it was not the power board. Over a week later, Lynnco came again and said it was low voltage. CHW dispatched an electrician. The electrician said the voltage was absolutely fine and there was nothing wrong with the voltage.

    After CHW made the third claim between the original AC company, followed by a electrician [the electrician refuted all the claims of the AC company], then another claim with a AC company located in another state was made, who was unavailable for an additional 9 days, placing the timing way past a month! I FINALLY was contacted by an employee of CHW who is going back to the original company (Lynnco) who has misdiagnosed the AC TWICE now, giving them one more opportunity to correct the issue. Fortunately, I will not have to pay the service fee for this call. We have a large family (7 children), and the summer months are upon us, with the AC out in 4 of those children's rooms, including an infant. It is truly uncomfortable for small children, and they are not sleeping well at night, due to having to sleep in different rooms because of the AC being out.

    This is why we purchased a home warranty, so we would have a plan for the unexpected. I truly expected better customer service from both CHW and the aforementioned contracted company, Lynnco. My AC has now been out for a month, and it is still not fixed. We signed up with CHW in good faith, as we heard it was the #1 home warranty company in the nation. This has been both disappointing and disheartening, as the bottom line is, I feel I have not been heard as a customer, and there is certainly an overall dissatisfaction with my experience. I am not currently aware of any reason listed in my contract as to why my AC cannot be fixed at this time.

    The detergent tray was not draining as designed. Detergent tray would continue to stay full and even fill up with water and not circulate threw when the wash cycle was on. The first tech from (Priority Appliance) arrived as scheduled did some checks made some adjustments washed off a float put it back together said it was repaired, charged me and left. Didn't bother to run a cycle test. Thinking it was repaired we started to wash and after the first load we checked and behold the detergent tray didn't drain and now accumulated even more water.

    I contacted the repair service and explained what happened and they said that they would re-send him out the next day. Day 2 and the tech arrived walked in and began to check everything again and stated that everything was fine and working and that the problem was that the detergent tray was too high and that it need to be shortened. I told him that we had no problems since we purchased it 5 years ago. So he said that he would need to cut the plastic tray supports down. I asked him are you sure you should be cutting anything on this machine and that I was not sure he should be doing that. He stated, "Oh yeah we do this and that," he has done this to other customers.

    After cutting he put it all back together, my wife stepped in and told him not to leave until he ran a cycle to see if it were fixed. He waited we watched and same problem. Not draining. The tech said he didn't what to do my wife stated to him that it needs to be repaired, you were already paid. The tech said that if we were not happy that we could call another tech or another service and left. I contacted CHW and explained to them what happened and they quickly dispatched another service (Ben's Appliance). He arrived the next day, I explained to him what the problem was with the machine and with the previous tech and he looked at me in awe, stating that in his 8 years of service he had never heard of anything like that.

    Ben quickly found the problem told me that he would order the parts and return when they were in. Ben returned a few days later being the weekend quickly made repairs and no more problems.

    This was my first repair call since joining Choice. This is my second time with Choice, I originally joined and never used the service. My son had service with another company that did not have a service fee. I canceled after several months. I did not receive any type of compensation which I sort of expected. I rejoined after my other contract ended, (company no longer offered services). I had researched and discovered that Choice was highly rated. My first visit was not what I hoped it would be. It has been a warm summer and I was told someone would be out on Tuesday five days after I phoned. It was disappointing having to be without air conditioning for five days. The good news was the technician showed up a day earlier than expected without any prior notice. I overlooked that minor inconvenience because I was happy he came early. He was courteous and resolved the problem. I have no complaints.

    I cannot tell you enough how horrible my experience with the warranty company has been! From having to wait an entire week for service then to find out at the actual appointment time that the company was not going to come because they would not deal with your company due to not being paid in a timely manner. Then had to takeoff work again! Spoke with supposedly the head of customer service and was not allowed to talk to anyone higher than him. He was not what I would consider to be customer friendly!

    I think if your people would put themselves in the Customer shoes and realize that you have to takeoff work for people not to show up that of course we are going to be upset! Now my unit needs to be replaced and I will need to wait for that but I will say that the gentleman that came out was the best experience with your company I have had.

    First let me say that Keisha ** is a terrific sales person and worked with me to insure that I got the coverage I needed, at a price that I could afford. The 5 year program, though a good sized outlay upfront, seems like a great program. After a year with American Home Shield, which was very disappointing, I'm glad that I made the switch. My primary home as well as my 2 family rental are now covered, with no worries for the next 6 years! Hopefully their service will be as good as their sales people. If not, I'll be here to update my review, but I'm feeling confident that communication is going to be far better here than it was with American Home Shield. If you're considering both companies, RUN to Choice.

    The repairman was promptly sent. When he said dishwasher needs replacement, I was immediately sent a cash offer from Choice Home Warranty. Unfortunately, the amount was 179.00, only enough for delivery and installation. I called to decline this amount. I was given someone to look into claim. She didn't contact me. I called her twice. She did end up getting increased amount of 299.00. Not enough to replace a dishwasher. I'm still waiting for the check. She did say it could be 8-10 weeks. I was hoping to wait, and do review then. I would have rather had them replace the dishwasher with something comparable to what I had. It still costs me 150.00 for delivery, installation and haul away of old one, plus remaining cost of dishwasher. Maybe I misunderstood the coverage.

A month later we had still not heard from him.

    I called Choice and told them and they called the place that had came out and I had to wait 24 hours for them to be able to call me back, which never happened. Choice did get someone else to come though and they were very nice and fixed it that day. The only thing I thought was wrong with what Choice said was, if we did not wait 24 hours for them to call me back, I would have to pay the 85 dollars again when another company came out. That is very unfair, it was not our fault that the first one that came out was crooked, they are the ones that use him.

    Stove broke, Had repair man come and look at it and they could not get the part. Repair man submitted for replacement and did a great job. Received an email stating that I was approved for replacement and authorized $449.00. A comparable replacement unit is at least $989 + Tax (wall oven 24WX30H). I declined the offer and it took me three days from that point to get in touch with someone. 1 day once a case manager was appointed, Lori was able to increase my offer to $599, I accepted as I needed to move on at this point. My oven had been broken almost two weeks. I feel like the company was just trying to reduce their exposure and move on by offering me $449 to replace a $1000+ unit at replacement cost.

    The plan gets purchased at $500, the stove breaks and then it is $65 to look at It & I am offered $449, you have to figure that the repair man charged about $100 to look at it so by offering this the company walks away without losing any money and just comes up with whatever excuse they feel like to justify it. I basically purchased an insurance policy and the company did not want to follow through with their end of the deal, they just want to mitigate their risk and move on. I was also told the slow customer service was due to COVID because they are working from home. Choice must have most of their staff laid off if that is the excuse because you can answer a telephone from home just as well as you can from an office.

    The service agent which checked the unit explained that the unit should be changed. The report from Choice indicated that they want the servicing company to change coil and some minor parts which most of the cost (over $1,000) of service will have to be paid by me. The unit is bad (based on your service agency) and should be replaced, now it seems like, due to the cost of changing the unit, you are trying to do a temporary fix and transfer most of the cost to your client (me)! I hope that someone from your company contact me this week since this will not be acceptable! Thank you.

    Very disappointed! Only way to connect CHW is by email, but received fast response. First company assigned to me had a D- BBB rating with over 5,000 complaints, I refused them. Second company assigned that came not much better, first tech could not figure out what failed & in fact may have caused additional damage. Always on phone with someone. He left & company emailed a senior tech would come the next day to confirm problem. This tech was at the wrong breaker box, claimed air handler was in garage in his report. Both wrong as he was at wrong breaker box & air handler as we have two units. He was however checking correct outside ac unit. When he left he left door open to breaker box in garage (correct box was outside on same wall as ac unit). Panel cover to ac unit leaning against ac unit & all screens missing. Did not replace covers on two boxes where wires came into from breaker box.

    Bottom line CHW seems to deal only with unqualified companies needing work from my experience. Claim was denied saying unit shorted out & that is not normal wear. I have called twice leaving a call back number that was 4 days ago. Still no call. A second call I was on hold for 35 minutes & at 4:59 the call disconnected! It is now 4 nights without ac here in Florida & I have had to schedule on my own a company whom I know to be qualified at my expense to come on Tuesday, 6 days after failure. The only positive thing I can say is when I appealed by email I was assigned a case manager who did call me. However, all I was told is to email tech’s report in & it would be reviewed. The unit failed in the middle of the night. I have insurance for that reason. Seems CHW looks for any excuse to get out of not paying. I can not recommend CHW based on my experience!

Then I had to prove to Choice what the diagnosis was and how much which turned out to be $750, this took weeks of time before Choice offered me $279 for a new microwave which was insulting since the unit cost me $1299 new and would now cost me $750 to fix.

    I am not at all pleased with the Home Warranty. I had a home inspection completed. Home inspector found some things about the AC he didn’t like. As part of our closing agreement an HVAC technician came out. He worked on the oil heat and checked over the rest of the system saying all was good and within standard specifications. He didn’t document and pressure or anything for Freon leaks. Fast forward, we move in everything is working for a few weeks and the A/C stops. The warranty folks send one of their folks out to look at it, and he finds its frozen and must be out of Freon.

    CHW in protection of having to replace the HVAC in my house, are saying it was preexisting. Therefore they do not have to warranty it. If a licensed tech says it works after a home inspector who isn’t a licensed HVAC guy finds a problem. It shouldn’t be preexisting. I wouldn’t recommend buying a warranty from them unless you have a newer home that has no problems. Thankfully my home owners insurance has equipment replacement and looks after its customers more than refunding their $65 dollar service fee.

    Paid in full for two Total Care Service Warranties for two rental properties for 6 years. Salesperson stated that with the Total Care Package, all appliances and systems will be insured for 6 years on both properties. I informed the sales person that my Air Condition units were very old, and the Freon was the R-22 rated Freon that is no longer made, nor is the industry longer allowed to replace the equipment for R-22 Freon. Salesperson assured me that the A/C unit would be replaced once it no longer functions correctly. Within four months of the coverage date, one air condition unit stops working; so, I made a claim with this company. I had two independent contractors go out to the property before and after their 'technician' to get more quotes on the equipment, and better understand the problem. Choice Home Warranty denied the claim citing the arbitrary 'maintenance' clause in their multiple 'Exclusions' section. (Often cited).

    The technician the company used was not cooperative in explaining the situation behind the company's denial, but stated the equipment was very old and needed to be replaced. His words were 'Dirt and Debris', and sounded routine and well-rehearsed like the rhetoric used in the company's denial. I asked for the pictures he sent to the company, and he stated that he did not want to get in the middle of the dispute, because he did not want to lose their contract. I filed an appeal, and was given a 'Case Manager' who took way too long to review the appeal, and return my multiple calls, and emails. (All the while, my tenants were going without air conditioning!) When the 'Case manager' finally contacted me (out of an office 8 hours away), he spewed the routine "Based on the 'evidence' (pictures taken from their technician), we will no longer go forward with your claim."

    He went on to say that the unit did not appear to be maintained properly (a condition not conceptualized or disclosed in their contracts or disclosed from their salespersons), and therefore allowed them from honoring their contractual agreement. This case manager could not answer my inquiry, when begging the questions "Do you know the last time I performed maintenance on the equipment?" The case manager could not answer the question. The case manager did not want to answer my inquiries as to what constitutes 'maintenance'.

    This case manager could not guarantee that the pictures (for which I pay for with my contract agreement) he reviewed were my unit. This case manager refused to disclose any information utilized in finding his determination. This case manager could not disclose any reasoning behind his determination, and when I asked to speak to a supervisor, he stated that there was no supervisor, and that he was the final say in the appeals process.

    These operational practices are borderline felonious, due to their sales department making lots of promises that their maintenance/operations/claims department appear to almost always dishonor. I highly advise to not waste your time and money on this company because their claims process for major issue problems are indicative to drain you, their client, consumer, and customer, down with unfair appeals processes, lack of disclosure to their determination materials, and their common, yet very nebulous "Exclusions" parts for all their 'covered' appliances and systems strategically inconspicuous when discussing warranties with their sales representatives. Again, I highly advise to not utilize this company if you are wanting to get fair coverage on high dollar equipment.

    Choice Warranty sent a company that completely misdiagnosed my AC issue and they subsequently denied the claim because of it. AC company refused to call back with explanation or estimate to repair. Reputable company diagnosed within 5 minutes the correct issue which would have been covered by the warranty. Now I'm out over 100 dollars plus the fee they originally charged for coming out only to misdiagnose the issue. Filed complaint. Have yet to hear back about compensation.

    I’m very disappointed with the handling of my claim. Yes, it was approved right away, but to make my family wait two days for a replacement water heater is unacceptable. Maybe all of you reading this would like to TRY and bathe in cold water out of a pot with a wash cloth. Seriously?! Why couldn’t the techs go immediately to their warehouse or a Lowe’s/Home Depot and get one immediately to install. That is not customer service. I’m sure my claim will slow down even more after you read this and if that does happen, I will cancel my membership and find someone else. I was told Old Republic looks after their customers better than this. NOT HAPPY. Also having to pay for other small incidentals not covered doesn’t make me happy. Almost $200 it will cost me. When a person gets coverage, a reasonable person would expect COVERAGE. Not this nickel and dime crap.

They decided it would be replaced. Yet didn't pay enough to replace it, $600 out of the actual $1050 it cost to replace. Our most recent claim on ac unit was a cheap simple fix.

Please consider adding a live chat feature or an email to contact someone for help if you are not providing phone support due to COVID.

    BEWARE! STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!! I paid the monthly fee for a year and when I reported a problem for the very first time with my AC, they denied it. They said it was due to ineffective maintenance even though the unit had been worked on last year.

    I originally spoke to Neil. When I called back to place the order for insurance, I spoke to Andy who was very professional and help me with the best plan. He offered me a very good and affordable plan that my husband and I was very pleased with.

    To date we’ve contacted CHW regarding three separate system failures. The first time I had to file a claim with CHW I wasn’t sure of what to expect due to several unpleasant experiences with a different home warranty company. To my surprise all of the systems were covered, and repaired. The process to file each claim was easy whether I filed online or by telephone. The claims were processed within 24 hours, and the local contractors who completed the repairs were phenomenal.

    The compressor on my air conditioner had to be replaced which I had to pay out of pocket. I’ve never had anything paid for by Choice Home Warranty but when I worked with American Home Shield they covered a lot more than you do. I will probably be canceling out my warranty with you.

    Septic alarm activated at 05:00 am. Filed claim for service at 08:23. Received email from CHW informing me they were having difficulty finding service technician in a timely manner and giving me the option to find my own service co. I hired a local septic service and they came and diagnosed failure of my septic pump. I was unable to obtain authorization for work as we were not able to contact CHW by phone and technician had no computer available to file authorization request. I elected to have technician replace pump as I did not wish to add to my woes with backed up sewage. Reimbursement for service was denied because no preauthorization was obtained. Had I saved all the money I spent on premiums for the home warranty I could have paid for the pump 10x over. Lesson learned—home warranty useless. Save your premium payments and pay for repairs that way.

    Your communication is poor. You need to update the customers on status of order. You have not at all, but the company you sent out has been excellent. You guys not so much. I am really disappointed. You offered us 349.00 for a new washer. I did not find any that cheap in the store.

    Only 2 things we have had worked on since we had the contract! The guy who came out on a/c didn’t have the right tools. Had to use my husband and was dressed as if he was going to the beach. Not impressed with him. The 2 guys that came out on fridge explain everything as they were working on it. Very professional.

    Dryer. The technician who came out was very good. However he couldn't fix the problem but found the problem. So I called back to Choice and they told me it's not covered under warranty and I should find my own technician.

    I'm writing this review at the moment because I received an email asking for one, however we are still weeks into a claim with no progress. Choice has been very inconsistent with responses and has changed and canceled technician appointments. I have received multiple different appointment times from Choice that do not match the appointment the technician set up. Also, Choice is now requiring a test to be performed which they do not cover. Very disappointing that after more than 3 weeks we have had nothing other than the initial appointment where the technician made recommendations, still waiting for Choice to react. Depending on how the rest of this process goes we may be moving to a different warranty company.
