My husband and I were happy with the experience that we had with the technician, Daniel ** that came out to inspect our AC unit. He called ahead of time to set up a time that he would be there. He was punctual and found the problem quite quickly. He had our AC unit working properly in about 30 minutes. Thank you for your wonderful service!

On a 90 degree day, my AC went out. I contacted CWS and within hours a technician came out. He cleaned the unit and also replaced the bad capacitor. Only cost my deductible of $45. Normally this would have been $200 to $300 repair with labor and parts. It's good to have peace of mind with appliances in my house.

This was my first time using the warranty service, and I have to admit that I was a bit nervous - It seemed too good to be true. Well, it wasn't. Within two hours of me submitting the issue online (that my AC unit was not cooling) Choice had called and sent me an email to schedule for the technician to come out. They came out the SAME DAY and fixed the problem. The technician was extremely professional and courteous, and gave me advice on maintaining my AC unit after he repaired it. Absolutely would recommend Choice to everyone I know - well worth the monthly fee and I am so glad that it worked out. What a fantastic investment!

We turned on our AC for the first time and there was this loud thumping that started. It sounded like when you dry gym shoes in the dryer. The blower is the same for the gas heater we have. We had to wait a few day because the service tech had a number of jobs, but it was still cool in the evenings, so we could bear it. When he came out he was polite, knowledgeable, and efficient. He diagnosed it and fixed it in under half an hour. We used him again with a non-covered repair and he was really inexpensive, which was a relief.

I had a plumber sent out from you a little over a month ago, and they unstopped my clog, or so we thought. Well 6 weeks later the same clog happened. We called Choice and they waived the service fee call since it had only been 6 weeks. We later found out that the first company just put a band-aid on our trouble. The next company that came out precisely diagnosed our issue, and we are getting it taken care of correctly this time. It was not Choice's fault that the first plumbing company that came out didn't properly diagnose our issue, but...

My AC has not been working properly for the past week. It's been 100° heat index where I am at. I filed a claim with Choice Home Warranty. They set me up with a technician from Dave Fant Enterprises to come out and service my AC. The company did not honor my appointment nor did they contact me to reschedule. Choice didnt contact me either. This company is very unprofessional and can care less about their customers. I've called Choice and Dave Fant Enterprises that is suppose to provide the technician and can not get any answer at all.

The report of trouble went into Choice on Thursday, 6/6/17. The serviceman was at the home the next day, as promised in spite of the high temperature (over 100* F).

New homeowners beware. This company makes fraud statements. I called in a claim, a technician came out, made the diagnosis, fixed it however not even 24 hours later the same problem existed. Technician returned but this time Choice Warranty would not approve the repairs. They claimed it was because of lack of maintenance however their statement says, "New homeowners welcome regardless of year of appliances/units age". As a new homeowner you're told to get a good warranty company to cover these types of issues that may arise, however choice home warranty should not be the company you go with!

Tim (I don't think that was his real name) from CHW called me this morning. It was a New Jersey number. I had been looking for a new company to have appliance insurance with over the weekend and CHW came up as top rated on ConsumerAffairs. Tim was very tenacious and really wanted me to sign up with their company. However, I told him that I was still shopping around and I also had to speak to my husband. We make all of our decisions together.
Well Tim was not hearing that, he really wanted to sell me this policy. He even said he could get me a Memorial Day pricing which was great, however, I told him that I needed to speak with my husband. He didn't want to hear that. I said, "Please Tim let me talk to my husband," and he basically started to give me ultimatums. Saying that if I didn't sign up now there would be no guarantee that I would receive this great deal if I called back. I asked him to quit being rude and let me go so I can speak with my husband. To which he said, "Whatever" and hung up the phone. He sounded like a telemarketer or one of those people that call you up trying to get you to pay your credit card bill. Very rude and disrespectful.
I called back and spoke with Ken (again probably not his real name) who was supposed to be a manager but sound very much like Tim. He apologized for my experience and told me that if I decided to call back and go with their company that the deal Tim gave me would be honored. However, initial impressions are important to me and this first impression just totally turned me off to getting a warranty with this company. It is so sad because they came so highly rated.

Again an item not covered by technical terms. The valve that controls the shower went bad. Because the valve has an insert Choice Home Warranty decided it is not covered. This is the third time I have attempted to use my warranty and have not been able to use it because of a technicality. When they say they cover plumbing you better read the fine print. The same goes for pools. My pump was not covered because it functioned other items. I will not be renewing when the policy expires.

Choice Home Warranty will work hard to maximize their bottom line at the expense of the customer. They'll deny a high cost claim and then offer "goodwill" compensation to cover a fraction of the total repair. They denied my plumbing claim due to PVC piping that was "improperly installed" 14 years ago and then offered me $150 as "goodwill". I called a number of other warranty companies, and ALL of the other companies said that this plumbing issue would have been covered under their plans. Choice Home Warranty may cost less than the competition upfront, but you'll end up paying more over time. Choice Home Warranty is the worst, and I don't recommend them to anyone.

The dishwasher in the condo we purchased no matter what we did for maintenance upon us moving in, the cleaning of the dishes just kept declining. At first there was a miscommunication about the make and model not covered because of a recall but after we called Maytag they were able to send us a letter to provide Choice Home Warranty stating that our model was not part of the recall. So a compromise was made after of course paying my $45 copay for the tech then Choice Home Warranty met me halfway based off what the tech wanted to fix the dishwasher with a check for $162 made out to me.
With that reimbursement and a sale at Sears we were able to buy a new dishwasher with a Sears limited one year warranty. For $168 pretty wow! The dishwasher was on a deep discount because of a small scratch on the top and no box. So it worked out great. We have a brand new dishwasher originally $400. Thanks to Choice Home Warranty and because of a little cosmetic scratch. Everything worked out great. Now I just need to put the check in my bank LOL! I am so happy we purchased Choice Home Warranty when we bought our condo. It has been a real life saver. Thank Choice Home Warranty. We will definitely be renewing our policy next year.

I paid for a warranty for our newly purchased home and filed a claim when the top of my oven quit getting hot. The warranty place sent a company out called GT Air Conditioning and Appliance Repair. He didn't even know where to find the model number on the oven. Then states he cannot locate parts for it so the company only paid the amount for which a part would have cost if he could have found a part. In June my air conditioning stops working. I call Choice Home Warranty, they dispatch this same company and the same person that came for my oven shows up to look at my air conditioner. This shows me he is not specialized in anything and since he could not find the model number for my oven this worries me.
The next day Choice Home Warranty doesn't even call me, they email me to call them. I call them and they state that the claim is denied because we must have not performed routine maintenance which is a lie. They state they only use licensed technicians and that is what their technician stated. I asked them for the license number and they will not provide it.
Per the Florida licensing website and the Florida EPA website, Giovanni ** nor GT Air Conditioning and Appliance Repair is licensed for anything. Choice Home Warranty is a fraudulent company that is hiring unlicensed people to write up false information so they can deny claims. I have also requested all information that he has submitted to them however they have not provided that either. I have filed a complaint with the BBB as well however CHW is just stating they won't provide anything to me. This shows me they know they are in the wrong otherwise they would be more than happy to provide it.

This company is completely bogus. I have made 2 claims. Hot water heater valve leaked. They said it was due to lime buildup and wouldn't cover. The tech THEY sent said, "Valve couldn't be repaired because heater was so old and needed to be replaced," but Choice would not. We called at least 5 times and each time we were promised they check into it and call back. They never did. Finally they agreed to give us $300 but new heater cost almost $900.
Most recently we called about our air conditioning not working properly. THEIR tech said the condenser needed to be replaced and that the unit had been properly maintained but could not be repaired. With 15 minutes of his visit I got a call from Choice asking me to call them. I did and woman said unit overheated because it wasn't maintained. Claim denied! Getting through on the phone took me 20 min and then my call was "dropped" twice by the cancellation department. What a nightmare and a huge waste of money!

Six years ago, an individual contacted me from Choice Home Warranty and gave me the sales pitch that this would be perfect contract for my residence and several rental properties that we own. We had seven contracts. I have fought these people on paying claims and this week was the end. Our air conditioner went out in our main residence. I called Choice and they said they would have someone out asap. I asked if I could have a say in who looks at the unit and they denied. The tech came out. No markings of any type of his credentials or a commercial business vehicle. He looked at the ten-year-old Trane and within minutes informed us there had been a wiring burned out and there is no coverage. He then offered to put a new system in for us at a discounted price.
I used to be in the insurance business and know that they just were finding any loophole to not pay the claim. The tech said the compressor was shot. Today, I had a local professional company come over and in thirty minutes he had it fixed, no shot compressor. He found several items the initial tech had screwed up. AND Choice is denying the claim? I would never buy a contract from them...

We have had Choice Home Warranty for several years. This policy has been used several times including dishwasher repair, refrigerator repair etc. All minor repairs. Here comes the issue. The central AC system went down. We called and as usual a tech came out in 24 hrs. He informed us that the outside unit compressor has failed due to normal wear since the unit is between 15 and 20 years old. Parts are no longer available and the unit must be replaced as well as the inside unit so the system matches and operates properly.
The claim was denied and CHW offered $200 for our troubles. The EXACT reason for denial according to CHW is "No compressor can fail due to normal wear and tear." The failure must be because of lack of maintenance, lightning strike, Act of God, low freon, obstruction etc. They literally read every exclusion to deny the claim. If you want a policy that might pay for minor repairs this is for you. If you have a big claim expect a fight or outright denial. The customer service and supervisors are pros at knowing how to deny claims. Let the fight begin.

I signed up with Choice Home Warranty for my new home. Having previous experience with American Home Shield, I chose Choice Home Warranty because they covered septic systems for more than one year. I paid for the policy in 3 month payments. My furnace quit working, they sent out a company who diagnosed the problem as the motherboard and said they would order the part and be back. Several days later, they showed up with the incorrect part. They then said the warranty company wouldn't cover the 'upgraded' part and I should call them to negotiate. I spent hours on the phone over a period of weeks, all without heat. Choice Home Warranty then told me they would only pay for the original part if it was available, not the refit (the furnace is less than 10 years old). They offered to send me a check for $300 to cover what they allowed.
Week 4, I contacted a local HVAC company who came out and said the transformer was bad and probably not the original problem the contractor sent out by Choice Home Warranty. I had already ordered the new motherboard so they installed that and the new transformer (which was only $120) and got the furnace working. When I called Choice Home Warranty again to alert them to the fact that their service provider incorrectly diagnosed the problem, said that wasn't their problem and I couldn't get the $60 service fee back I paid. I called to cancel my policy having gone back to American Home Shield, they applied the $300 check they sent me to my annual premium that was paid and stated there is no refund despite being covered until March 2018 (this is June 2017...). I would not recommend this company to my worst enemy. Run far, far away and choose a different company to entrust with such a large investment as your home.

Currently, I placed a call on June 1. When I called the repair company they gave me, they didn't even answer the phone saying they were a repair company.
The repairman was here on Sat, June 3, and left needing to order another thermostat. A thermostat is a pretty standard piece of equipment a repairman should carry, but not with this outfit. It has to be approved, then ordered (I just called and they get 3-5 business days to do that), then the repairman will recontact you and set something up, usually within a week, to do the actual repair that the local repairman could have done in 15 minutes. Customer service was of no help. The person I spoke to was very difficult to understand, and couldn't care less that I was dissatisfied with my service.

I had a repair for a dishwasher that required a vent cover seal replacement. Cost was $130. CHW denied the claim even though the part wasn't excluded in their contract. They initially denied the claim because they consider the vent cover seal to be identical to the door seal gasket, which is listed as excluded. After speaking to a human and showing that VCS was a distinct part, they changed their rejection to say that they don't cover doors, and the VCS is a component that is between the out and inner doors. Their agreement states they cover all dishwasher components except what is explicitly listed, and the door is listed as an exclusion, not the VCS, and not anything "Connected to" the doors.
When I asked for their reasonable basis for that interpretation that a part would be excluded simply for being connected to an excluded part. They clarified that electronic components connected to the door are covered, but non-electronic components are not. Once again, this difference is not explained in the user agreement. After I filed a BBB complaint, CHW went back and forth between rejection reasons - Each person I spoke to gave a different reason for rejecting the claim. CHW offered a full refund to close the BBB complaint, but to date I have not seen a cent.
I believe CHW was deceptively vague in their user agreement in order to gain me as a customer. Then re-interpreted their agreement when I filed a claim to avoid payment, to an interpretation that no reasonable person or repair technician would reach. I do not believe they acted in good faith, and had I known their position, I would have never done business with them in the first place. I highly recommend you avoid them and go with a more reputable company.

On yesterday I called Choice out due to my a/c not cooling properly. Upon the tech arriving he spent about 10 mins looking at my unit and he advised me that I had less than 2 pounds of Freon in my unit which means I have a leak. He then told me leaks were not covered under warranty and that it would cost me $200 for him to find it. Very confused and not feeling comfortable with this diagnosis, I asked could refill my Freon under warranty and give me some time to think about dealing with the leak. He then advised he could not provide me Freon under warranty due me having less than 2 pounds of Freon which indicates a leak. I would need about 5 pounds of Freon at about $90 per pound. I was perplexed and confused. Did he think because I was a woman he could take advantage of me? I told him I was unhappy and needed another opinion. At which point he advised he needed to get his gauge and check the unit.
Wait, how did you determine I had insufficient Freon if you hadn't fully looked at the machine or used a gauge? At this point I'd lost total confidence in this tech. He came back in and told me that my compressor was bad and that the unit had Freon. Smh. At this point I paid him the trip charge and he called the diagnosis into Choice. At the same time I was calling to complain about the visit and lack of confidence I had in the tech. I was told my complaint would be noted and if the claim was approved they could not reassign a new a/c co. About an hour later Choice called me advising the tech reported the compressor issue was due to lack of maintenance and they would not honor my claim. I then advised I had kept of maintenance and wanted a second opinion. I was then advised they do not provide second opinions and that I could do so on my own. Furious and hot I asked for my complaint to be escalated.
I hired an a/c tech to come out this morning. Guess what, no leak and the compressor is good. Only the capacitor needed changing. Totally annoyed I called Choice who advised me again they would not honor the claim. I asked for a refund for the bill by the third party and a refund on my warranty. I was told by operator Luis ** that he could either give a partial refund on my contractor or a refund for the third party service, but not both. I asked to speak to a manager, he claimed to be a manager with no one else to help me. I opted to accept the partial refund but feel based on the poor services and bad diagnosis I still should be entitled to a refund for the repair I paid out of pocket. I'd never had an issue with Choice before but I'd never had a major equipment failure either. I guess it's their policy to deny big claims for maintenance and never ask for proof of service or to provide excellent customer service. Choice I have other choices!

A-1 Garage Door Service - The service was excellent. It was a holiday weekend when the garage door opener quit working. Choice Warranty scheduled an appointment for the very next business day, and the service person was there at the earliest time on that day. I received a text with a picture of the service person, and the company's information minutes before he arrived. He was competent in his search for the problem, and when found, contacted Choice Warranty with the details, and the work was performed in a timely manner. This was my first claim, and am very satisfied with the prompt and courteous service.

I had to call CHOICE FOUR TIMES to get my running toilet fixed within a 6 month period, and they charged me $45 each time. They sent some guy who admitted he was not even a plumber, and he kept putting the old piece back in each time.

First technician was unable to come work on my fridge. Your customer service responded immediately. I had waited a day or two to find out about the first tech and was not real happy. They got another tech who came out later that day. He was professional, effective and efficient. He had to order a part which arrived wrong. He reordered and still had my fridge up and running again within 3-4 days. I was now a very happy and satisfied customer. By the way this repair happened during my first month of coverage.

We have had various problems with our air conditioners, bathrooms and now our refrigerator is not cooling or freezing. Called CHW on May 16th and great an appliance tech was send out to our home. Called CHW on May 18th to confirm when should we expect for our fridge to be repaired? CHW agent said, "The part should arrive in three business days; which would be by Monday, May 22nd." We waited until Monday, May 22nd, 23rd, nothing. Called the appliance company on Thursday, May 25th why they had not stopped by or even called us, they said that CHW ordered the part and they were also waiting. Called CHW to see what was the problem, they tried to give me the runaround, but I work for a shipping company and know that three day delivery is possible here in the good USA.
Finally the reason why we had not heard from them was that they dropped the ball and ordered the wrong part for our fridge... But they did not bother to call the tech or us to let us know. Then they promised that a senior manager would be emailing us a tracking number for us to track the part that was suppose to arrive to the tech on Saturday, May 27th just before Memorial weekend. We are not happy campers at this point... Do not trust in all of their false promises... They will take your money very gladly, but when it comes to getting the work done... It is like pulling teeth.
Regarding our bathrooms... We called one of the plumbers that came out once to provide service for us on CHW referrals, but they would not come out to assist us because CHW had not paid them from that time that they came out and did the work. This is not right... If they have a contract with a company they should pay them for the work they do. That company did a great job when they came out to our home.
CHW has many loopholes and I would tell you to beware of they tactics... They have and make lots of empty promises. Not having a working fridge is not fun in hot weather. We have lost a lot of food because of a broken fridge and it is very expensive dining out not to mention that we have my elderly parents staying with us... I pray that they have followed through with shipping the correct part to the tech so that he can finish his job at our home and that he gets paid for his job from CHW. Will be waiting to see what happens on Tuesday, May 30th 2017.

I chose this service even after talking to my husband who disagreed with it. I filed a claim on May 23 because I had a leak in my garage ceiling. My husband pulled off the sheet rock to see it was coming from our shower. I placed a call in and got quick response from company called Icon Mechanical. The guy came out couple days later, assessed the problem. I was told he was going to call it in but is pretty sure it will be covered. I paid my $40. Well, I was about to leave to pick up my car at the shop when I seen him pull out. I was not told anything so I assumed he was going to get some supplies.
After waiting a couple hours I get a voicemail and email from CHW to call them to discuss the claim. The lady told me it was denied due to pre existing condition. Now, to my knowledge if the home isn't brand new everything is pre existing so how can I be told when this has happen. I was confused and frustrated. I will be canceling this service.

Ever heard of the domino effect? Well I learned something new. If something goes wrong and any other part maybe caused it to go wrong it's called a domino effect by Choice Home Warranty. They assured me my AC would get fixed. Wrong. Tech puts me off for a week. Text me all hours of night. Reschedule after reschedule. Then he comes out, looks it over and determined it was the blower wheel and motor. They will cover the wheel but not the motor. That makes no sense at all. I pay for a full home warranty not a half one.
So I get a quote from the tech for $500. But then I'm told by home warranty I only pay $250 or so for the motor because they are covering the wheel. Yeah no not playing games so I cancel the tech coming back. Then the tech texts me that he got a message saying I will get my own tech and says he will come do it for $360 now. Haha yeah no. I'll get the motor myself which is $70 and the wheel for $40 made by Trane! And install myself if needed. Do not waste your money with this company. BTW this was my very first claim! What a joke.
