    As per Murphy's Law, my AC unit froze. It was not cooling and was dripping a lot of water inside the house. I called Choice Home Warranty and they dispatched a tech from Unico AC who diagnosed and repaired the problem in short order. He was very polite and proficient. Thank you, sir.

    Had my HVAC go out and they sent the repairman who determined it was a bad capacitor. Since my HVAC is a Trane with a 20 year warranty on its 17th year, Choice Home Warranty would neither cover the part nor labor, leaving me hanging high and dry. This caused all sorts of issues with the repair company because they had never encountered such a situation with another warranty company. Normally, the warranty company authorizes the repairs and gets reimbursed by the manufacturer. After several conversations with both Choice and the Repair company and being with AC for a week in the Florida summer, I finally had to go to another company to fix it.

    I will say that Choice offered me 2 months free to make up for this, but the risk of another HVAC equipment malfunction that Choice would arbitrarily decide they would not cover will force to cancel and go to another warranty company. So although Choice has very competitive pricing and decent customer service, I would caution potential buyers on their coverage policies.

    I changed home warranty providers in January 2017. Last week was my first experience attempting to utilize this service. I put in a claim on Thursday May 11th. I did get a generated email that it was processed. After 24 hours and not being able to reach the assigned contractor I was assigned a new contractor on Friday. I again attempted to reach this contractor with no luck. I again called Choice which included a 20 minute wait to speak with someone & again told a contractor will call. It's now Monday I have heard nothing. It's 1pm. Again called Choice twice. The first time on hold for 15 minutes so hung up. Now called again with only 10 minute wait. They are saying no one can come out until possibly Wednesday.

    My 3 yo Kenmore Elite dishwasher broke (continually ran). I contacted Choice, and they immediately established a ticket for a service repairman in my area. They also followed up to verify that contact was made, and I was satisfied with their timeliness. Repairman suggested replacing the control panel, but Choice felt due to age, etc, the unit should be replaced. Initially, the amount offered was not acceptable by me, but we worked out a mutually acceptable amount. They sent the check as promised. No hassles! They do live up to their reputation! Stick with Choice, but avoid Kenmore products!

    I was hesitant to get a home warranty based on hear-say. I went with Choice based on reviews and their #1 status. I can see why they have great reviews and #1 status! On a Thursday evening I noticed my air conditioner was not up to par - it was set on 74 degrees and struggling to maintain 78 degrees! I called & got a claim # and was told a tech would call me the next morning after 8 am-8:10 a.m. I got the call from the tech and he arranged to come between 8-11, within minutes I got a call from Choice at my work phone, home phone & cell phone giving me the tech's name & number that was assigned to me! Tech arrived 10:30 and checked out the air conditioner-changed a part, made sure it was up to par and left. Air is working great and I am impressed. I am not easily impressed!

The day the service tech was scheduled we received an enormous amount to of rain resulting in severe street flooding. I called the service company to postpone due and they reguested I call back mid afternoon and let them know if the rain stopped and the water had receded. I called back around 2:30 and told them the rain had stopped however the water was receding however there was still about 18" of water in the street. They called the service tech that said he would try and he came with about a foot of water still coving the street.

    This company clearly wants to collect for initial contracts and look for ways to either reject claims and/or collect additional monies. At the time of enrolling I was very specific about the appliances in my home. When I called for the first and only claim, they asked so many questions related to my a/c unit and came back with a rejection since I was misquoted for the number of AC units in my home. They refused to honor the agreed-upon contract and try to collect additional monies from me. Sharif was rude, condescending and demanded I pay additional for my contract to be valid before authorizing a service call.

    I am not sure why there are many good review of this Warranty Company. Based on my experience it haven't been so well. The two times that I called the company for a different problem they look for any minimum reason to not cover the damage. What is the use of paying when you need the service it is not given as expected. It is actually a rip off. Both request was for the pool. The 1st one was the filter that wasn't working which they couldn't cover. Something that I had to pay out of my pocket. Now I have the problem with the motor and after a month dealing with all the paperwork with the warranty company finally a technician came and determine the motor was not working. When I called the Company after 3 days waiting for response they indicated they can't cover the motor because it is a secondary damage. They only could fix the diffusor. Another expense coming out of the pocket. Honestly, is it worth investing in this company. I wouldn't recommend. Too much hassle and at the end no solution.

    When I bought this policy representative told me they cover all old or new appliance and for that's what you need to buy warranty. And when it comes to reality they don't help you at all. Even the customer rep girl was talking like have no sense to talk to customer and when I said I need to report for this company she offered me $100 for repair. I have already paid them $40 to diagnose and now $100 not gonna help me to replace my washer. This is ridiculous. I would say better buy somewhere else these guys gonna help you for things which are probably under $100 and charge you $40 to $70 to diagnose. So doesn't make sense to buy this policy.

Choice Home had contacted Sears in Rockport but they could not send anyone for 2 weeks. Mr. Appliance sent a technician out the next business day (Monday). The service technician from Mr. Appliance in Corpus Christi evaluated repair to cost over $500. It was not cost effective to make repairs on an 11-year-old appliance. I requested that they close the ticket and notify you of his finding. It would have been a better experience had CHW contacted Mr. Appliance, as we had to get approval while the tech was on site and presenting me with his bill for more than my contract indicated.

    I purchased a Choice Home Warranty earlier this year. Last week I noticed water around the base of the water heater. I have the total plan which clearly states that water heaters are covered. So I called Choice, they were responsive and a tech came out the next day. He determined that there the water heater needs to be replaced. The company would not pay anything because they claim the holding tank is leaking and it is not covered. This is a sealed unit. So in effect they really do not cover water heaters since they exclude the major component. It seems that when a company says they cover water heaters it should include the entire water heater when it is a single unit. I would love to know what they actually cover. I tried resolving this with the company. I spoke to a supervisor and even asked to speak with their retention department. All to no avail. I am very disappointed with the lack of customer service.

    My Jenn Air microwave stopped working. I called Choice and set up a technician. He said the touchpad was broken and needed replacement. Problem is they don't make that part anymore and it's not available. My $2300 microwave was un-repairable. I was thinking they would want to replace it with an inferior appliance. They only wanted to pay me for the cost of parts and labor for repairs. They gave me money for a part I cannot purchase and for labor that will not be done and the total was $330 which is nowhere near what it was going to cost me to replace it.

    Buyer beware, when your stuff breaks and you think they will replace it they won't! It says in the contract if parts are no longer available then they don't have to replace it. They just give you money for a part you can't buy. You are better off saving your money in a savings account than giving it to these scam artists. I wish I never gave them any money at all. I've had 2 claims (dryer and microwave) and nothing but a fight on my hands to get any reasonable compensation back and they've never replaced my broken appliance.

We again were facing the problem and requested them to send the technician today. The technician came. We were contacted by the Care and Service Team and they were saying it's a preexisting condition and they would not cover it. We don't not understand because it clearly stated in the agreement and emails that they would repair if there was a repair and also replace the appliance if there was a issue with the appliance. Now as the problem is recurring and we contacted them they were saying they did it for courtesy sake the first time and it's preexisting and we need to bear expenses from out of pocket.

    The thing is that we are paying insurance amount every month and we are in contract. That is their obligation to repair/replace the appliance when there is need but they are using this preexisting clause and cheating us, if it's really preexisting why did they repair it first time? Our life is becoming hell without hot water, it's lot of problem for myself as I am working and this disturbance is causing a lot of mental stress for me. We feel cheated, we buy insurance because we will have a mental peace knowing that if a problem comes up we don't need to get surprise expenses but the whole transaction make me feel that I am being cheated and they are not fulfilling their part of the contract.

    I have had AHS for more than 20 years. I had them on all 3 of my houses. I really didn't have a complaint about them. They didn't cover everything, but at least I had a reliable repairman. Choice called me out of the blue and said they had the same service quality as AHS for a lower price. I switched all three houses to a 6-year prepaid plan. Their cancellation policy means you get no refund. BIG mistake. They pay for virtually nothing and their techs are iffy. There is one paragraph in their contract that allows them to escape from paying any claim they don't want to pay for. If you question why they won't pay, they refer you to that paragraph.

    I paid for extra for three AC units at the Georgia house. Two of them stopped working so we called. Neither of them had a manufacturer warranty in place. Choice said one had a warranty and would not cover it. The 2nd unit they said had a leak, but wouldn't cover it because it was outside. A two-part AC unit contains an outside unit and an inside unit. How can I put both inside? Oh, I should note that another AC company was able to fix both units for about $300, but they do not deal with Choice.

    The water heater started leaking. They said they don't cover water heater leaks. What else goes wrong with a water heater? The water heater replacement was about $1000, so much for saving money. The heat pump went out at another house. The parts needed were no longer in mass production, but Carrier said they could make the parts for $250 plus shipping. They refused and instead offered us $200 for a system replacement. The replacement cost was $4900. We have yet to receive the check for $200. On the third house, the AC unit stopped working. They said they would reimburse us the $700 in labor costs if we paid the technician. We are still waiting for the check. That has been almost 2 years. We send them the receipts (and copies), and they deny receiving them.

They refuse to repair and pay for almost everything that is requested with the most obtuse (con man excuse) reasons. They refused to pay for 2 Air conditioners that the compressor pump had failed by saying I must have had someone incorrectly service the unit with bad Freon (it had worked fine for two years and no Freon was ever added during that time). Worse of all they refused to repair a compressor on a 4 yr old air conditioner because it was too new and the manufacturer should cover it. (Manufacturer warranties typically only last 1 to 2 yrs). So if you have a new house don't expect anything to be covered because they will say the manufacturer should pay for it.

Quickly afterward, we received a call from the repair technician and scheduled the appointment. The HVAC tech arrived as scheduled, quickly diagnosed the source of the AC issue and repaired the problem component. The repair was included in the warranty policy. We are happy customers.

    The call in customer service was excellent however the service call was slow and wanted me to buy an expensive water heater out of pocket. Overall the service call was good but the heater leak was discovered on Thursday morning and fixed on Monday. I will add I had HWA for years and they were always superb but started shopping when the rates went up. I went to Colonial/XPD which seemed like a scam that wiggled out of everything and I fixed on my own. This was my first experience with Choice and I was interested how you would do. On the weekend a friend told me he bought Choice for his 4 houses for 3 years after I recommended, a while ago, so customer service is very important.

    As a first time homeowner, it is scary to think that you will be faced with a large cost in repairs if and when something breaks. A few days ago, I noticed that our a/c unit was running constantly (19+ hours in one day) and not cooling our home as it should. I logged into my account and submitted a claim explaining what was going on. Seconds after I got up from my computer, I received a phone call from Choice Home Warranty. I spoke to an agent, that was professional and courteous, and we discovered that I had selected the previous year of 2016 rather than 2017. Eek!

    No big deal for CHW, the kind woman on the other end of the line corrected my mistake and said that my claim would be assigned to a contractor shortly. Within two hours, I had an appointment set up with an a/c repair company. I am still in disbelief at how smooth the claim process was. My husband and I are so glad that we chose Choice Home Warranty; we are so much more at ease knowing that our home is in their hands!

    My Kenmore Elite Washer Stopped working. The repairman said it would cost over $700 to fix. CHW senior Claims adjuster said they would only pay $300 dollars toward the replacement or repair. She told me they did not want to repair because it could break again, so they would cut me a check and put in the mail for $300. She tried to make the decision for me. I told her I will call back tomorrow with my decision.

    I read thru the contract. Nowhere there is a limit for an amount for a Washer or Dryer Appliance. She said they do not have to match the brand. I will refuse their offer and take them to small claim court if I have to for deceptive trade practice. Because what she said was not mentioned in the warranty agreement. It clearly states they will replace or repair an appliance if it stops working. She told me I could buy a top load washer from Sears outlet for $299. Then I told her I have a Front Load Red Set. She said they do not have to match the set or the brand. Then she said I could get a Front Load washer for Sears Outlet for $419. After doing some research I see a new Kenmore Elite Washer is over $1,200 and to repair the old one is over $700.

    How can they say they are only going to pay $300 toward the repair or replacement? In Texas that is deceptive trades. They sold me a warranty agreement but verbally telling me what they are going to cover, when the warranty agreement state they will repair or replace. Would love to hear other people bad experience with CHW. I am quite sure they are not going to honor their agreement.

    UPDATED ON 06/09/2017: I filed a complaint on this site last month. I emailed my dispute to Choice with no response. I also mailed my claim. They did not honor their agreement. I have been a customer for nearly a year. This contract is deceptive. I have allowed them 30 day to contact me about this issue, they did not acknowledge my dispute. Now I will be consulting an attorney.

    The first claim was for the pressure regulator located in my garage by the water heater... NOT COVERED. Second claim, my Kenmore washing machine drum developed a leak and I was told it could not be repaired. They cut me a check for $300 which is less than what I paid for it 14 years ago. Choice will lead you to believe coverage will replace the appliance and the cheapest top loading Kenmore costs $380 on sale, $539 regular price. I didn't expect them to pay tax and delivery which adds another $80 to the total. So basically you will get what they think you will pay for a used appliance, not a new one. Furthermore, the agent that communicated the decision not to repair my washer was extremely curt and condescending. So far this coverage has not saved me a dime. Never again will I do business with this company.

    If you are thinking on getting this insurance, read the fine print in their contract first. At the end, you may be paying an expensive insurance that covers almost nothing. We had two claims and both were denied. They advertise that they will replace your appliance when needed, but it is all misleading as they have fine print in their contracts that gives them a way out from approving a claim. They just want to patch things up regardless of the conditions of the appliance. In addition, the technicians that they work with are not real companies (all their emails are gmail.com, yahoo.com, etc.) and do not carry enough insurance or are not bonded. Do not waste your money, the concept is good, but this company is in only for a profit.

We were told Choice Home Warranty would need to approve the replacement but once they did they, he would reach back out to come do the work. We never heard anything back. I called CHW, they deemed the technician unresponsive and reassigned my claim. Had another appointment set up with a new technician who called the morning of the appointment saying he couldn't make it and it would be another week before he would be able to come out. Called CHW back, they again reassigned the claim. Had an appointment set with technician number 3. I called the general office line (the only number I had) to reschedule. No one answered so I left a message. No one called me back to reschedule.

    I spoke to a supervisor today and he was on the defensive, essentially blaming this on me because it took me a month between the non-responsive call and now. Yes, I could have called sooner. However, I have a full time job and a family. Making sure you hold up your end of an agreement is not my top priority. I pay a fee every month to have a certain level of service that I am not currently getting. I should not have to micromanage someone that I pay for monthly. And the fact that I've had 3 (now 4) technicians really says something about the technicians that they have partnered with. Maybe it's an issue with the technicians.

    The accuracy of when to expect to be contacted by the furnace repairman was right on. There is a slight problem because he had to contact your office to give a quote for the repair and didn't come back or call. I don't know if he couldn't reach you because of the time difference or if he had another repair call. He didn't answer the message I left on his cellphone. I expect him to return tomorrow. I'm glad the weather isn't too cold. If you could add an emergency claim for extreme problems, that would help a lot. Thank you.

    Called Choice Home Warranty, (CHW) 27 April 2017, to report water heater will not light and leaking. My claim was denied because of excluded items. I paid 1 year in advance the amount of $450.00 thinking if something such as this happen my family covered. I ask for refund of the remaining months. I was told by representative there is $50.00 cancellation fee. I only had 4 months left to end of term that meant I would receive $22.00 refund and I never used the policy. I feel so cheated out of my hard earn money. BTW I'm a Navy veteran. Please don't buy from this company. This is the ripoff you don't need. Just think there is more excluded than included.

    Choice Home Warranty allowed a company to come to my house that, when contracted independently, took my money and did not do the repair. I have looked into this company and they are not even licensed in my state. Choice insists that they submitted a copy of their license and referred to them as an "authorized" technician. When I complained, they denied any wrongdoing but admitted that this company has been removed from their list of technicians. Why would they do that based on one complaint and regarding independent work unless they found something to confirm what I am saying?

    Choice Home Warranty is by far the worst company I have ever been with a part of. It's to the point that I wish I stayed American Home Shield. I have been with CHW for almost two years and I had to put in a few claims nothing major but when my AC unit went out they were no help at all. Apparently, the compressor to ground short is what cause the damaged from what I was told and then was informed that they would not cover it because it's not considered normal wear and tear. I asked, "What is considered normal wear and tear?" The response was "abuse, misuse and neglect". "Really, you don't read that in the fine print," I stated.

    I asked them, "What happened to the money I put into this because I have been paying for services and now when I need you nothing." I explained to her that I'm deployed and overseas right now and her response to me was, "Well I didn't sign up, you did." Wow, really I couldn't believe that. I asked for the record conversation and transcript of this conversation and was told no it can't be given out. CHW thank you for making this easier for me. I will no longer be a part of your company and I will let every military person I know as well as the BBB that you like to take advantage of military while they are away fighting.

    Whatever you do please do not purchase home warranty services from this company. They will always fail on their promises (100% GUARANTEED. That is the only thing they guarantee). Issues with this company: 1) They work with mom-pop shop run by one employee. When they assign technician, you need to waste lot of time to get hold of them. 2) They do not value your time. Recently I experienced it. Technician told he would visit my home between 12 and 3 PM but showed up at 7 PM. 3) All expensive appliances (refrigerator, HVAC, water heater, washer, dryer) are not covered by them. But they will not tell you at the time of purchase. You realize it after you purchased warranty and when you need them to address problem. 4) You cannot cancel your policy. Terms and conditions are so unfavorable it is like casino games where house always wins. They will make sure they do not have to refund any money you paid to purchase policy.

    Our central A/C went out during the middle of summer. We had just purchased our warranty after a friend recommended them and we were just past our 30-day grace period! Mind you we had a newborn at home and purchased 3 years with this company and I'm pretty sure they overcharged us. They kept taking out payments when we didn't authorize it and over-drafted our account. That should have been my first warning!

    Well, when the unit went out we called the warranty company. We had to pay $45 when a friend of mine told me that most places would charge nothing. Then the main part of the A/C unit, the condenser! I love how their contract has all this double talk! Also, after they denied us and we called back to ask why the customer service representative told us it was because we had called just after our grace period and was accusing us of trying to scam them! Like it was our fault that the a/c just went out right after we bought the warranty.

    So, I asked to speak to a manager and she stated the reason was because it was the "condenser" and they told us that part never goes out unless it is struck by lightning. I told the manager that I did not appreciate her customer service personnel accusing us. So, when the a/c guy came back he was shocked that they declined us over that. He told us that he was no longer going to work with this company because this was the 10 customer in a week that they denied claims for and that he never had this issue with any other warranty company! So, I showed him the contract and he said that basically everything that is included is cheap stuff to replace and that it was a bunch of double talk. I wish we never heard of this company. Now we are stuck with them for 3 years. When I looked into their cancellation policy- we basically have to pay $800 to cancel! The government really needs to step in and start regulating these companies!

    Not just waste of money, but I felt like I was paying to be cheated and betrayal. I am with CHW since 2014, never had a big issue. Used them twice small repairs and with payment of 45$ dollars but now when I need service and repair they are saying it's not covered. 6 days back I called to get my AC fixed because it was not cooling. The technician showed up next day of call and left saying me his boss will talk. Received a call, technical wanted to do a leak test which is 150 and is not covered. I say I pay, the technician came next day, took him less than 15 minutes to check and gave me an estimated of 2100 to fix it.

    Received a call from CHW, the sixth day, it's not covered!! Not only that they claim the AC is not properly installed. My house was built by Grand Homes, and I never had any issue for past 8+ years, due to bad installation. Later when I argued they offered me 200$ then later another employee 350$... guys I bought this policy for the peace of mind and timely repairs and not for you making me go thru this. The last employee told me their director would call me and discuss this. It was in the morning, and so far I have not received the call. I am firm though either they must repair my AC as they advertised when I bought the policy. I will update it soon when we close this claim, but this is pure deceptive marketing by CHW, which came to my realization the hard way and when I needed it most

    The worst customer service I have ever dealt with. If it is a small claim, all is well. I had 3 different technicians come out over my A/C and it never worked. I had them come out again and they gave me the excuse that it was not covered because of a grounding issue. The tech was in my living room when I called and he said that was not what I submitted and went and resubmitted. The Tech said it was normal wear and tear... Choice said they would review it. Never called me back and I called them... Still same outcome.

    I cancelled my service with them and the man on the phone said, “Why? You still have a month and a half left and won't get a reimbursement?” (His name was Russ). Very combative. Not good at working with a frustrated customer. I said I would rather lose that time and money than do business with someone that has "LOST MY TRUST" through dishonesty. Beware...

    If you are planning on using CHW I'd think again, turn and run as far away from this company as possible. They claim to cover items but when you need them fixed they are 99% items that are excluded. For example, they say they cover water heaters. You would think that when your water heater breaks they would replace it for a new one. Well, in their exclusions they don't actually cover the water heater itself but maybe components on the water heater. So $1000 later you have to pay for a new water heater because CHW will not replace the tank.

    Same happened with a plumbing issue, had a leak in my bathroom and they say they cover leaks. Well guess what happened when I called CHW?? They don't cover wear and tear, how else is a leak going to start behind my wall?! I could go on and on about this company but if I were you I would not give them your money, because they fix whatever is wrong. I bought a 3-year plan because of the "great deal" I was getting, now I just realized I gave them $1,200 for nothing. Thanks CHW, you're the worst.
