    I just submitted a claim and the appointment to fix it was scheduled for 3 days from now. This is unacceptable. I’ve been a customer for a long time and I make timely payments so I shouldn’t have to wait so long for an appointment to have my problems addressed.

    We choose Choice Home Warranty because they had the best reviews and they have absolutely not lived up to them. We even approached the salesperson after having issues with customer service who sold us the warranty and her answer was "I'm not in customer service". It was a huge red flag for us. We had an issue with our bathtub and without going into too much detail they sent out a company that is registered as a home care for the elderly not a plumbing company. To make matters worse they misdiagnosed the issue which we only found out after we had a real plumber come in and do the repair. Don't waste your money or your time with them, there are far better home warranty companies who will treat you with respect and only have reputable contractors sent to your home.

    Typically, I am quite understanding of thankless job that customer service entails. However, this was difficult for me to overlook. When it was below 20 degrees, my furnace decided to go out. I called in to report a claim. Spoke to a service rep that took all my information and said that someone would be in touch. After an hour or so, the online claim status did not show any progress so I decided to call to get an update and found out that the claims department was closed. As a result, I went back to the "new claims" department (I guess the after hour service) that originally created the claim. The "supervisor" showed no empathy for the problem that I was facing. However, she was happy to read a statement that basically said "if you don't like the response, you can call your own service person and deal with reimbursement."

    Although I understand that policies and system/process limitations. I was completely taken back that someone in a "supervisory" position had NO ability to connect to another human being and did not even make an attempt to understand the situation. Hopefully, the recording of the call can be used to train future employees that might actually provide customers with service rather than reading off a statement.

    On their website it says they cover water heater. Mine went out. The tank started leaking. I put in a claim and they said it’s not covered. Only certain parts, but not tank. What! What is a hot water heater without the tank?!? Anyways sure enough if you read the details of contract they only cover certain water heater parts. OMG... what a joke. I told them I know other warranty companies would cover this. They said that may be true but they have a higher service fee. I told them I would gladly pay a higher service fee to know my warranty would actually covered what would be expected. I think this company is good for little things but if you want to get good coverage, pay a little extra and ask the warranty company, "If such and such happened would the entire appliance be covered?" This will give you peace of mind.

    Home furnace completely stopped heating, even with twice yearly maintenance. Inducer motor locked, cracked heat exchanger, blower motor not working. The furnace was no longer operative. As instructed, the furnace tech communicated the analysis to Choice representative. After Choice review, the decision was they do not cover these items, as one led to the other??? Choice also indicated it's stated in my contract that this would not be covered. There is nothing in the contract which speaks specifically to the items causing my furnace to fail. Choice would have had to cover expenses for a new furnace, which, I believe their techs would in no way make a determination in favor of the customer. Will not renew and will never use again.

    At the beginning, I chose Choice Home Warranty for a peace of mind, also because their rate is the cheapest. Now I know there is a reason that their rate is “cheapest”, and I have made a big mistake. Two months after I ordered the plan, one day I found my refrigerator stopped cooling, and I called CHW for an inspection. Technician came and detected condenser fan blade and control board problem, charged service fee and said would come back to repair after one week. One week later, nobody called us, no any follow-up, we had to call the company to check status, after over one hour waiting and transferring, finally one manager answered the phone “oh, we were just trying to contact you, and your claim was denied”. When I asked the reason, he said “your refrigerator problem takes many days to develop, so we can’t pay anything for your claim”. So which appliance problem doesn’t take days to develop?

    This is the most unbelievable excuse I heard from a home warranty company. It seems to me that CHW only wants my money, but refuse to pay any claims. Now I understand why it’s cheaper than others, obviously they don’t pay anything. After my denial, I checked CHW reputation online. It’s a pity that I only started checking Choice Home Warranty review after they refused to pay any claim. On BBB, Choice Home Warranty has over 86% negative reviews! I should see that before ordering CHW plan. Also interestingly, the review rate went downward sharply in year 2018, I saw a lot of unhappy customers like me, a lot of 1-star ratings. I even saw comments that CHW refuses to pay any claim higher than $300, which was true according to my experience with CHW. I am writing this just to advice future new homeowners, if you choose CHW, better pray yourself won’t have any repair beyond $300.

    I used to be with American Home Shield and I switched to Choice because of the lower deductible fees and what a mistake it was by me. Pretty much any claim you make will be pre-existing and they will not cover it. I placed two separate claims for my AC and fridge 6 and 8 weeks after my initial purchase and both got denied. They question you about the broken appliance to death trying to see if you are responsible for its being broken. Afterwards, when they send the technician, they will claim that the broken part became defective long time ago prior to your purchase of the policy. In my case, they even lied to me about my fridge and said that it was the compressor that was broken and it takes a long time for it to be broken.

    However, after I spoke with the technician, he denied that and said it was an electrical circuit board and an overload relay that needed changing. So when I called them about it, they said it's still pre-existing and will not fix. After complaining again about the case two months later, a resolution manager offered to pay half of the costs only because I caught them lying to me about the diagnostics. I cancelled afterwards and will go back to American Home Shield as they never denied any of my previous claims. They are a fraud company and most of the people that gave them good reviews got paid for it. Go check BBB and see what they say about that.

    I purchased my policy on Jan 4th. I was sold the policy explaining all the wonderful benefits and everything it covers. Last Night Feb 5th about 3:30 pm we realized we had no heat. I immediately was relieved remembering we had Choice Home Warranty. I called and filed a claim and was amazed at the fast response. They set an appointment for 3-10pm the next day. With below 30 degree temp we figured we would stick out even with 3 kids in the house. The next day the technician comes, diagnosed the problem as a valve and circulator pump and leaves. At this point I am furious. I was under the impression he came to fix my heat. I call Choice and they tell me they have to wait for the technician to call in the problem and then to see if they will approve it and if so they will send him back when he is next available to fix it. So another night no heat below 30 degrees out.

    They then call me back and tell me it is a preexisting condition. That this part does not just go. It goes over time. I ask then what is covered because in reality everything breaks in time. They told me to call back the technician. I call back the tech who tells me that is not true. That this part can go at any minute and they told him they were denying the claim because I have only had the policy in effect for 2 days. In effect to me means in effect. I also called another plumber and asked the same question about the parts and was told both those parts can go at any minute and it is not something that goes over time. I called Choice back and was told it is what it is. It is denied. I explained that they are denying the claim for something that is incorrect.

    They very clearly stated it is what it is by a very nasty supervisor. I am extremely disappointed in my first attempt at using this policy. I was mislead when told it covers my heating system and would like to know how it was too soon to file a claim if the policy is in effect and was purchased over a month ago. I am wondering what their policy is on how long you must wait. They insinuated that it was preexisting and then waited 30 days in sub 0 degree weather in NY to file a claim. When as of 3:30 on Feb 5th I had heat and I purchased the policy Jan 4th. This company is a scam!

    I bought a 3-year policy and every time I submit a claim it's either not covered, if they can't fix it they give a small monetary concession that is nowhere close to the replacement cost or they use a bogus technicality to put the burden of cost on me. This is the worst company I have ever dealt with. I'm in sales and if I treated my customers the way these people have treated me I would be out of business. I could never recommend these people to anyone.

    Worst company stealing money from everyone. I signed up for 3 years and was told if I don’t like service I can cancel anytime and will get full refund. I called this company twice for service. Both time they said they don’t cover. Finally I decided to cancel my service and was told by company manager I will get only $237 refund. Originally I had paid more than $1500. I told the manager person who signed me up he told me I will get full refund. He said no and I asked him to listen to the conversation we had before I signed up. He said, "We don’t have any recording." People don’t waste your money on this company. Salesperson to supervisor to manager they all are uneducated people.

    We were experiencing problems with two burners on our Whirlpool ceramic glass cooktop. Called in to make a claim to get it repaired, was told timeframe contractor was going to be there, didn't get a chance to schedule time that might work better for me. Repair man reviewed problem with the cooktop and submitted report to Choice Home Warranty (CHW). Then CHW informed me that my cooktop would need to be replaced. So far no problem, then everything started going south.

    They offered $230 allowance for a new cooktop, which I rejected, because we were suppose to get a like product. I had to then phone back and talk with a supervisor (Brad) whom said he would see what he could do. He first tried to deny my claim because I said I had a glass cooktop and they didn't cover glass. After more conversing, he said that he would attempt to get a higher allowance. I informed him at that time that I had gone online and reviewed a number of the stores around and found that the cheapest for $404, but that $450 was common low price.

    He came back with an offer of $350. Again, I said that the lowest priced cooktop was $404, so the $350 couldn't buy a replacement, and he further stated that within the contract the replacement was their call, which I had no problem with, it was the allotted amount I had issue with. He then said that they could purchase a ceramic cooktop for $350, so that is all we would be allotted. I said fine, buy the replacement cooktop and have it installed. He then informed me that they were on a purchasing freeze. I asked how long this was going on, he said that it was indefinite from when it began to when it would stop. So I asked then if it was on when I purchased my agreement in 2016 and he quickly adjusted his answer that it started in December.

    I asked him directly if this might not be a little bait and switch, since I purchased an agreement for repair/replacement and I can't even get what it will cost me. Additionally, I had to pay for the service appointment and now will have to pay for the installation. CHW is not keeping their end of our agreement, and they are pushing costs onto customers, like me.

    November, bitter cold, my heat quit working. I called Choice Home Warranty and within 2 days I had a reputable service company at my door. Said my system was old but in remarkably good condition. Something stuck in the condenser. Fixed and went on his way. Lasted about 3 weeks. Same issue - blowing cold air and making high whining noise. Again bitter cold and approaching a holiday weekend - Very difficult time getting in contact with Choice Home Warranty. (Story for another day) Several days later (bitter cold and I'm an old lady) a fellow comes to my door with NO CREDENTIALS. Said he drove more than an hour to get there. - Not even a hat with logo. Thought the heat pump was fine until I mentioned the outside part! He said unit is old and a part was rusty.

    Called Choice and was advised that they don't cover rust (real reason is the parts are obsolete). Also said I had a Freon leak but he had no Freon with him. Was there for hours (I also had to pay another deductible) and was advised that rust isn't covered and I could get another opinion at my own expense. I did get another opinion at my expense. Unit is old, but no Freon leak. Can now only maintain an inside temp of 62-63. Yes better than outside but not comfortable inside. I submitted all documents to CHW and was advised I should hear something within 24 hrs. So here I am 6 days later, still bitter outside and very cold inside and haven't heard a peep. Also I live in what's considered Metro Atlanta, so why did they send a tech from 70 miles away? I have COPD and this whole situation is not good for my health either.

    Tracy M from CWA was kind enough to resolve this misunderstanding.

    Original Review: Feb. 2, 2018

    Update on 12/31/2018: It has been a very frustrating to deal with CHW regarding hot water heater claims. I had an issue with lukewarm water in master bathroom. Plumber determined it was a non-working check valve between recirculating pump and water heater due to normal wear and tear. CHW denied my claim stating they are not liable for sediment or chemical related causes of hot water heater related issues. You will always have potential sediment or chemical related issues as they exist in the water. So be careful if you think most hot water heater repairs are going to be covered because CHW has many exclusions. BTW, this was the second claim they denied as they used the same contract denial clause to deny fixing the thermostat control value on the water heater. I will not be renewing as this is literally money down the drain. The cost of replacing the check value exceeded the cost of the service contract so I have a double loss.

    Original: I filed a claim for my water heater soon after my coverage policy started. They originally denied my claim stating that it is a pre-existing condition. The water heater temperature control valve can go out at any time especially during cold weather. The plumber agreed and said there was no way to determine if it was a pre-existing condition. I was on the phone with the claim supervisor who vehemently said it was a pre-existing condition. I was able to get them to pay $150 of the $685 bill which they said was a good-will gesture. Anyway, don't waste your time or money with these scammers as they will try to deny all your claims. I will not renew my coverage.

    Last February our oven stopped working so we filed a claim with CHW. They were very responsive and sent a technician to repair the oven in a timely manner. We renewed our contract a couple of months later and unfortunately our oven broke again in November. We filed a claim in December expecting the same level of service, but have been VERY DISAPPOINTED in the level of service we've received with this second claim. CHW sent a technician to assess the oven, but after submitting his recommendation for the necessary repair CHW determined the technician (one that they had selected) to be "unqualified to trouble-shoot ovens".

    After numerous emails and calls with extremely long hold periods to follow-up on the claim, they finally sent a new technician to our home for a second opinion (1 month later). The second technician submitted his findings and now CHW is denying the claim stating that the technician has reported multiple issues needing repair which the warranty company deems outside of the "normal wear and tear" policy (even though one of the issues is with the same part CHW's technician replaced in February). After being on the phone with multiple representatives they cannot provide an answer as to why certain repairs were covered under the exact same plan last February, but not covered now which leads me to conclude CHW uses loopholes in the contract to enable them to avoid payment of repairs. As a result, I would NOT recommend doing business with this company!

    My A/C unit broke a couple months ago and I am still trying to get reimbursed. CHW originally denied the claim stating that mold was the cause of the failure after a tech said there was some biological growth inside the unit. I paid over $400 to have a mold test done which came back as being negative for mold. I give CHW the results and then they change their mind and say the unit failed because of rust or corrosion.

    I had two different A/C companies come look at the air conditioning unit and both verified that rust or corrosion was not an issue and did not cause the failure of the evaporator coil. The A/C company even called and explained to the representative this very thing. This company was not even the contracted company. They had nothing to gain and everything to lose being they would lose business if CHW honored the claim. CHW also refuses to give me anything in writing for my records. They always want me to call even after I explain to them I want written correspondence for my records.

The only problem I have in speaking with her then the conversation with Lewis ** is the discrepancy in information they gave me concerning when your company actually request maintenance record. It is a great concern of mine in respects to my other contract **. I was going to cancel this new policy due to worries I had in this respect.

    My father has for the last 50 yrs or so actually installed and maintained A/C, Heating, and electric and even some plumbing systems and has maintained all these years. I'm worried that if they need repairs or even replacement that they would be denied as my father has never kept such records. It is not a question of him no longer maintaining said equipment but one of age. He is now over 100 years old and I don't want him to have to do repairs himself. Lewis insisted there was nothing to worry about that records were really only requested when the contract is fairly new.

    At this time I see no need to call in any claims as everything is currently working fine. So after all these discussions I agreed to not cancel the contract. I will be extremely upset, if when your services may be needed for that contract that it will be denied due to lack of said records.

    It has determined the cause of failure of your system is with the evaporator coil, which is leaking refrigerant and must be replaced. Evaporator coils that leak have been exposed to corrosion or acidic materials that have infiltrated the air stream and air flow throughout the house and have damaged the integrity of the coil. The acidic agents cause sections of the coil to become corroded and/or rusted which are weakened and develop tiny pinhole or microscopic leak.

    The prior home warranty company, American Shield contacted Meyagie's Services (817) 849-2066 & they changed out the A/C unit with a brand new unit. Aug. of 2017 I also have photos of the Meyagie repair guys on site working that had replaced it prior. The unit began having problems again of not cooling. I turned in a claim with Choice Home Warranty since I was now contracted with them.

    They sent a company out to see the issue (I don't recall the name of that company though but I am sure Choice would have it on record) and I was told by the two repair estimate guys that came that Choice would not cover it due to rust and the guys who came out stated they could take care of it for me just to help me out if I paid $1500. cash directly to them and they would do it on the side (sounds crooked to me). I contacted Choice and they asked that I fax them the repair from Meyagie of Aug 2017 in which I did Nov 2017. I have not heard from Choice to date and it's Jan 27 2017. I sent them another email.

The sales person told me all of the appliances that you cover and your contract clearly states on page 3 you cover hot water tanks but makes no mention of reading the rest about exclusions. It was also my understanding that at purchase I was buying the best plan you have, but try to use it for the first time and no coverage! Please stop my payment plan this month.

    Original Review: Jan. 24, 2018

    Our heating went out on Jan 1 this year. Temps were at an all time low for us... teens and below. We reported outage and waited. After waiting 55 hours we called and were told we could call our own provider as no one had picked up the ticket. They explained reimbursement process. Turns out it only cost $220 for repair (combustion motor). Wait time for auth was horrible. Our technician could not wait for the 40 plus mins it took to get a person. I explained and was directed back to another dept. She emailed me forms which I then faxed in. I faxed papers several times due to one form they kept saying was cut off. I called Fri 19th to be sure they had gotten a clear copy. Rep told me they would contact me if there were any more problems.

    On Sun morning when I checked email, there was one saying that after repeated attempts to contact me were unsuccessful they were closing the claim! (I still have email.) When I called rep said they could not process claim because they had not talked to a technician. I explained what happened, asked would they compensate the technician for his time to call them again and was told no. I'm ashamed to say I did lose my temper. I was so frustrated that there was no way found to resolve my situation. Also the rep told me I just wasnt hearing what I wanted to.

    Keep in mind I have worked in retail mgmt for 30 years... I know there is always a way to help a customer who has had a verifiable situation that doesnt fall under "the rules". I'm just thankful the technician was honest and didnt gouge me in my emergency. I paid for 4 years upfront for this coverage almost 3 years ago and this is the only claim I've had except for a washing machine repair last fall. VERY disappointed. I originally sang their praises after my 1st experience, but now know it's not always so. I'm not sure how long they thought we should go without heat, but I think we were reasonable. (We bought and borrowed electric heaters... which scare me). Three days was rough. Dont think I will be renewing my contract with this company.

I asked what older system doesn’t get rust. The HVAC technician that installed our new HVAC stated that our old system was well-maintained, but Choice tried to say our system was not maintained and that is why it was leaking. Do not learn the hard way like we did. DO NOT take out a Home Warranty from this company. They will just take your money.

    After 3 e-mails, Choice Home Warranty resolved the issue with the offer of a $500 payment toward the new water heater. I very much appreciated their willingness to do this since I realize it was an uncovered repair. My issue was that they were unable to furnish me with a tech to do the work at a reduced price, but I am satisfied with the reimbursement and will continue to use their services as we have for the past 6 years.

    Original Review: Jan. 23, 2018

    I sent this to Choice Home Warranty re: Uncovered replacement of water heater. I am requesting some token reimbursement for our expense since they were unable to supply their own technician to do the work at a more reasonable price than we had to pay a private contractor. I filed a claim online 1/18/2018 for leaking water heater and received a return email from you stating you were unable to locate a tech to do the repair in a timely manner. You authorized us to get our own repairman which we managed to do. He contacted you with the information and he understood that you would reimburse me for the repair, and proceeded to fix the problem.

    I was then informed by you that this repair/replacement was excluded under warranty terms and that I would not get reimbursement. You also told me that if I had used YOUR technician (you didn't have one), that they would have given us special pricing on the repair even though it was uncovered. I am requesting that you pay us the difference between the price YOUR tech would have charged and the amount we wound up paying our own man since you were unable to help us per the contract agreement by supplying the repair technician. Please advise. We have been customers for many years and I just renewed my contract last week again. I am hoping you will take this into consideration and help us out with some form of reimbursement.

    Stay away from Choice Home Warranty!!! I'm a Real Estate broker that got a Choice Home Warranty for my own home. What a mistake. I put a claim in on my washing machine. A tech came out to check out the washer 3 days later. He told me before he could fix the washer he needed Choice Home Warranty approval to get parts to make the repair and that he would be back the next day. The repair tech never returned so I called him up. He told me Choice home Warranty denied the claim to repair. I called Choice Home Warranty and got the runaround. Finally I got someone that would talk to me. I was told since the washer was only 2 year old we must have overloaded the washer and that it was not normal wear and tear and therefore not under warranty.

    We never overloaded the washer. It's just my wife and myself. We don't have big loads. So I called the tech and asked him why he thought we were overloading the washer. He told me that he put in his report that it was normal wear and tear and Choice Home Warranty made the decision that we were overloading the washer and that void out the warranty. So I called Choice Home Warranty back and got a supervisor. After some choice word with the supervisor he offer to pay 50% of the repair. I told him that would not do. Parts were about $225 plus labor. (Just going to get a new machine.)

    Well my contract with Choice Home Warranty expires in about 6 weeks and their sales office has been calling me about renewing the warranty. Sorry I don't think that's going to happen nor will I ever refer them to any of my clients and I will pass this info on to all my agents and other realtors.

    In late October of 2017, Choice Home Warranty denied a claim on a 13 year old AC compressor because failure was deemed "not normal wear and tear" as per their disclaimer. Have had their Warranty product since March and at the time of this writing I still have it. The fact is, an electrically-shorted, hermetically sealed Trane Compressor cannot be diagnosed for failure type unless it is cut open and examined for root cause of the electrical failure. Technicians from two different HVAC companies have verified and agree with the aforementioned statement. Choice cannot and will not provide, in writing, the type of compressor failures which are considered "normal" wear and tear because this will obviate their ability to dismiss ALL claims due to the "normal" wear and tear clause.

    I purchased their product because, according to their marketing/advertising materials, it is supposed to provide "peace of mind". It has done anything but. I now have to cut open the compressor and determine root cause of the failure and document such, get signed statements from the two technicians, file complaints with the BBB and the NC Attorney General's Consumer Affairs/Fraud Division and submit my "evidence" to Choice for their determination yet again. In the meantime, I have spent $1350 to replace the compressor and get the system running again. I would give them ZERO stars but the rating system doesn't allow for it.

Called back again. Was in the phone for 15 minutes. Still didn’t speak to anyone. Finally went in the website. Didn’t see anything that said to cancel a claim so I went to the area to check the status of my claim and sent a reply to cancel. Also called the company to cancel.

    On October 30th, 2017, I called Choice Home Warranty because my heater was not working. I was scheduled for an appointment for Tuesday October 31st, 2017. My claim number is #**. The heater contractor Cedric ** came to my home on Tuesday October 31st at 5:00 p.m. and looked at my boiler and said that there was nothing wrong with my boiler area but I needed an electrician. I scheduled an appointment on Wednesday morning November 1st for an electrician to come out to my home, my claim number is #**. I called the electrician J. Morgan Contractors and he said he could come out on Wednesday at 1:30 but came at 5:00. When he got there he worked on my boiler for approximately 2 hours, he went to the store and bought 2 transformers and came back and started fixing on it again.

    After he got frustrated because the transformers he purchased burned out, he said he had to call the company because what he needed to do was not in his contract and that they were not paying him enough money for what he had to do. He left my house with all the wires hanging and open and the boiler apart never stating that he will be back to complete the job. I called Choice Home Warranty and talked to Latasha and she stated for me to call a manager the next day. I talked to a manager on Thursday, 11/2/2017, Charmine she said that the electrician J. Morgan Contractors will be out to put my boiler back together on Friday. I waited all that day Friday for J. Morgan Contractors to call me back and he never called so I called the company back at 4:00, and talked to another Manager Gregg. Gregg got J. Morgan Contractors on the phone he stated that he will return to my house at 5:00 p.m.

    When he returned to my house I thought he put all my wires back together but he didn't. I called another boiler company (Polar), spoke with Jerry and he scheduled for Saturday from 12:00 to 3:00. A contractor came out and looked at my boiler and stated that the people who worked on your boiler did not put all the wires back together and they did not want to touch my boiler or be responsible for what Choice Home Warranty started. They suggested that we call the people who installed the boiler to complete the job.

    We had to call E.S.I Heating & Cooling on 11/11/17, at this point we were without heat for 3 weeks. E.S.I. Heating & Cooling fix the boiler and left the receipt for $200.00 about all they had to do to get my heat on. I am so disappointed with Choice Home Warranty because I never used this and I had them for two years. Choice Home Warranty really let me and my family down. I am asking for a refund of $200.00 to be returned to me because another company had to complete the job for Choice Home Warranty. Thanks.

One company quit because they said they no longer want to work with Choice because they're very messy. I had to agree, messy is bit of an understatement. Companies in my area do not want to work with them so I'm assuming this may be why it's taking so long to get the problem fixed.

    When asked what was taking so long to get someone out they said no contractor was available because of heavy workload. That could be true but meanwhile I'm still stuck with this electrical problem, not to mention they had me on hold for almost a hour... Frustrating.

    My furnace went out one week after I moved into my home. Over one month later, my children and I are still without heat. Choice Home Warranty sent two techs out that did not even service the type of furnace that I have. One tried to do something to it and left. Finally someone capable came to fix it, but two days later, the furnace quit again. There was a part leaking oil, so the tech stated that due to the leak and the age of the furnace, he recommended replacement... First, Choice Warranty tried to claim that the leak was at the storage tank so it was not covered. I told them that didn't even make sense, because my storage tank is outside, and the leak is under my house - at the furnace.

    Then, they claimed it was the lines coming from the storage tank, and since storage tanks aren't covered, it still isn't covered. The name of the person who supposedly told them that didn't even match anyone working at the HVAC company. The tech called back again and told them that they needed to stop jerking us around and again explained that the leak is at the furnace. Now they are denying the claim because there is hazardous material involved which excludes it from coverage. Any oil or gas furnace involves hazardous materials, so they could use that excuse to get out of paying for most furnaces.

The technician had said the compressor had a leak and they did not cover that or the replacing of Freon. This was a total lie since the technician had said he could not check the compressor because he needed the electrical board to turn on the fridge. So, I got angry and demanded my money back which was $608.00 plus the $45.00 I paid the technician because he never the fridge.

    Their reply all I was getting was one hundred and fifty some dollars. When I asked why? They were charging me for the electrical board and so on. In the first place I did not received the electrical board the technician's company did and I don't have the electrical board the technician's company does. Yes they are cheap but read their policies real good. They cover a lot of appliances but the main things that make the appliance work are not covered.

    Glen was very courteous. Very polite and quick. I hope that my service with tech will be the same. Professional he listen without any interruption. I think my call last no more than 10 minutes. I hope to have the same prompt service in the future.

    The only thing I can say good about Choice Warranty is that the salesperson who convinced me to drop AHS and switch to Choice was brilliant. She sold me so well that my sister in DC switched also. She has better sense than I do, she has switched back to AHS. Each claim we have submitted has been a struggle. Even emergency are not responded to timely. I had a toilet overflowing and was asked to wait 2 days for a repair person. I ended up hiring a company to come out that day to perform the repairs. I have an electrical issue in my daughter's room. We were told that Choice would pay for the part that was inside the ceiling but they would not pay for the work it took to get to that part nor would they pay for the replacing the parts damaged to get to the covered part.

    In September, I submitted a claim regarding my ceiling fan. No one called me to say anything. When I checked the status it said to call for more details. I was told that Choice would not cover a light bulb. I told your representative that if it was the light bulb, I certainly would not need to pay a surcharge for a $5 bulb. When I have a problem with the faucet in the kitchen, I ended up paying the guy $260 to replace it. He said that Choice didn't cover the cost of the new faucet. This policy is really a joke. It really doesn't matter that your company charges less than AHS if every claim I submit is denied.
