Service was good once the tech arrived. Your wait scheduled between occurrence and repair was too long. The time was almost two weeks between occurrence and service. If I had had no heat I would have had to leave my residence.

We initiated claim to fix a broken water dispenser and a repair person was sent out. Although he was able to temporarily resuscitate the dispenser for a day, it quickly stopped working again. As requested by the repair person, we contacted them again, and the person said he would return to complete the repair properly. He never showed, but later reported to Choice Home Warranty that the matter was closed, the item was fixed.
When we tried to explain that that was not the case, and that we had text messages to show that the repair person had promised to return, we were told that as 30 days had elapsed we needed to restart the claim and pay the service charge once more. When we called to explain, the situation was escalated to a manager, who upheld the original decision to make us pay the charge again. Our experience with Choice Home Warranty was terrible. They use inexperienced contractors, and are willing to allow customers to cancel their policies rather than address issues properly. This is a sub-standard home warranty company, so buyers please beware and avoid this company at all costs.
We strive to provide the best customer experience; therefore, we regret to hear that you were not satisfied with the service provided by our technician. We are making every effort to enhance the customer experience; therefore, we have submitted your feedback to the Director of Vendor Relations, who will review this matter accordingly.

My Heating unit was blowing cold air so I placed a claim with Choice Home Warranty. Less than 24 hours later, my problem was resolved. The online claim submission was easy. CHW responded quickly. The technician (Rutledge Refrigeration) arrived at my house during the window they stated. Brian was very professional and well-equipped to fix my problem. Kudos to CHW and Brian.

Our 20 year old furnace stopped working due to cracks in the heat exchange. The failure occurred In the dead of winter in Chicago. CHW denied our claim based on a theory that water leaked in exchange and cracked occurred as a result of corrosiveness. In my opinion, CHW used this allegation to avoid paying a claim. I've of other customers having the same experiences as me. I'm done.

Two weeks into the job and I am still waiting for the repairman to come and take care of this problem. He promises me a 3 hours window every time and then not show up. Lenny came to my house last Saturday. Opened by my Dryer and left unfixed. Currently I have a dismantled dryer sitting in the house and nobody to fix it. I am sick of hearing his sobbing stories and how he is tied up with another appointment or he is in the hospital. He tells me that he has a forty years of experience. I can only feel sorry for all the people he has serviced. This has been my worst experience with Choice Home Warranty. Please take this repairman of my job and have someone serious enough to come and address this issue.

I paid almost $4,000.00 in cash in advance, to protect my property when emergency occurs. Every call becomes an stressful appeal process, in my opinion some of their technicians are incompetent criminals including Home Choice, they request me to pay more in deductible than my contract stated they don't submit quotes for home choice then it becomes a long stressful process scheduling with several technician for a simple repair, my mother 80 years old have, she has over 2 months on and off no heat. They also send 3 different technicians to repair a microwave a year old previously replaced by Home Shield warranty. My previous home insurance comp. They can't fix the microwave. The filter keep blowing a fuse inside the unit. After talking to these idiots they place a long process for an appeal.
Every process become a nightmare, a horrible experience, I end up fixing out of my own pocket many repairs due to the emergency situation that need to be within hours Not weeks or months. My drain pipes clogged. A big mess in my basement. I place a claim. Has past two months no one has come. I hired a friend to cleaned it twice. This company must be shut down...

Just want to let you know that I am not happy at all with your company. Every time I have a claim it always seems to be something that is on your exclusion list. This last one was for a microwave that went bad. You attribute it all to a bad magnetron and you are not covering. The tech said it was due to the magnetron being weak and the arcing was just a secondary problem. Anyway you can you tried to use your exclusions to the detriment of your customer.

I just renewed my CHW contract. I thought long and hard about what I wanted to do. There have been so many times that CHW has pissed me off for their lack of honesty about their contractual agreements. The bottom line was that I actually had more repairs than what I paid for the contract. The other thing I want to mention is that there have been many, many times that I never bothered to call CWH for an issue that happened at my home. I just didn't want to hear the BS from CHW. That's right, BS! Things that were actually agreed to in the beginning that mysteriously became items not covered in the contract. To top it off, when pushed into a corner, CHW would refer me to their bottom line.... that they reserved the right to pay or not pay for whatever item is being discussed. One other thing is that there is a dollar limited on the items, another small detail that was never mentioned during the initial sales call at the time of purchase.
The biggest issue I had was this past year when my well pump went bad. We had no water. For two days, I waited for CHW to call me and to give me information on who was going to repair the well. At the end of the second day, I was called and told to get my own well company. We had lost yet another day without water. Finally it was repaired and then I was told it wasn't a covered item. We discussed this along with paragraph E-3. It seemed pretty clear to me that I was owed $500. The lady I spoke with was trying to say that I didn't take care of the pump which is why it went bad. The pump of course is down in the well and it isn't something that anyone does or can do maintenance on. It either works or it fails. The bottom line is CHW covered it, paid me the $500 allowed by the contract and we called it a day.
Having said that, I can also say that some of the repairs were very pleasant experiences. I called CHW, they called a repairman, the repairman came out and did the repair, I paid the initial fee and the repairman left. The process can be clean, effective, and done without anyone getting upset. That's how it should be every time. Again, looking back over the past six years, your record isn't perfect, but it's acceptable to a point. There's no doubt in my mind that there were times when I wasn't going to get any results or satisfaction.

I have warranty through this company. I recently filed a claim for heating that will not work. The tech (HVAC company) that came out put in a claim to have my air handler replaced but Choice denied the claim. I was not aware of this because Choice emailed me and told me that the tech's diagnosis was no mechanical failure and no repairs needed. Mind you my heat is still not working. SO I get upset with the tech thinking he was trying to scam me and all along Choice is aware that I need an air handler but keeps telling me the tech said no repairs were needed.
It wasn't until the owner of the HVAC company reached out to me and send me screenshots of all the communication with Choice that I found out that Choice was trying to play me. When I contacted Choice again in regards to this, they still tried to deny the request was made. Choice even tried to play me against the HVAC Company but didn't realize they weren't talking to me...they were bad mouthing the HVAC company to the HVAC company.

I recently bought warranty from this company and signed for 4 years. The sales person mentioned lots of things and I thought I will give it a try. But all their promises of warranty went off as soon as I submitted my first claim of plumbing. It was a minor issue like replacing expansion tank on a boiler and they made a big deal and I am still struggling with them. It has been a week and it still has not been fixed. They came back saying, it is an old existing issue. I am surprised to get that feedback from them, because no one can keep leaking boiler for 40 days. I have decided to cancel this policy. I have warranty from AHS on my other properties and they worked well so far. I will take another policy from them.

If you do not mind working with techs who are new to the industry or field, building experience and business off your back, or those that should no longer be providing services because they should have retired years ago, this is the place to go. After a month, I finally got my washer fixed. Each visit (4) in total, things were replaced, would work for 5 minutes and then boom, out again. Parts that he put on that he thought would fix it, wasn't and he would remove the new part and replace it with the old part he saved, moving on to what he thought was the problem next, and when it wasn't removed the part, replaced the old and so on.
Got that kind of time? Most folks don't have a month of laundry mat trips. Good luck in canceling their services cause it will take more than one time despite assurances it was done. Doing it of course after you are billed again. And if you WANT to cancel, well that will take a lot of talking and debate besides long waits on the phone to talk to ANYBODY and it is always the wrong department. I went back to my old provider who cost more but I never had such problems with.

I am disappointed with the coverage provided with choice HW. My GE built-in microwave went out. The technician determined that it needs to be replaced, since no parts are available for repair. Since it cannot be repaired, Choice HW give me some money for replacement. I have 2 problem with this:
2- Even when I take this small amount of money, I have to pay someone to install the unit!
I would have thought, even if I accept the small amount of money and by the replacement unit, the technician who came to do the diagnosis would come back to install the unit. This is not the case according to their contract. I have to take the small amount of money they offered and I had to pay for someone to install it. They should at least have the technician come back and install the new unit. He would have to do that if he was actually going to repair the unit, why not also install the unit as well. Why make me pay for another person to install it!!!

My claim was denied on a technicality costing me $$$$ right before Christmas. Why am I paying Choice? The technician was shaking his head and stated "this is why I don't do warranty work". USELESS CONTRACT!!! The technician needed access ahead of the clogged drain NOT JUST from the clean out. My claim was denied because he didn't specifically state "clean out". Since I grew up in the plumbing business I know this is a total SCAM. Most plumbers are willing to go the extra mile to clean out the drain in both directions since it will prevent a REPEAT VISIT. Thanks for screwing me over right before the holidays CHOICE. And NO he couldn't go through the P-trap under the sink because I didn't want the entire side of the house dumping water in my kitchen.

I would like to say this. I bought this warranty confident that they would hold up to their rating however they absolutely have not. Just like most warranty companies if you don't read the fine writing they find a way to sneak out of any coverage if at all possible. For instance I called in a claim for my dryer and they agreed to cover it. They then showed up a week later to fix it. The tech was given the wrong piece and left my dryer in pieces. I then received an email back a couple days later stating they were no longer going to cover it instead would offer me money to replace it.
Now it has been 2 weeks without a dryer. The amount they offered me to replace my $1400 high capacity dryer was $299. There isn't a dryer out there that can be purchased for that. So now I have to call the warranty company to discuss with them their quote and I get this manager 4 days later that proceeds to tell me that the money is not to replace but to fix it. Huh. That's funny. Isn't that what you guys are supposed to do? So now after our conversation they agree to fix it and it has now been almost a month without a dryer???? Mind you I have 3 kids and this is around Christmas.
So I'm taking all my kids clothes to the laundromat spending my money to wash and dry my clothes because they can't get their ** together. It's sad that these companies think it's normal practice to screw their customers. Thanks Latasha for the great customer service. I would recommend finding a new profession. Customer service is def not your forte. To all the consumers out there do not use this company. They are a joke and have so many exceptions in their policy that they literally don't cover anything.

You can check any order # associated with my account. My experience is the same. I pay month after month, but the two times I sought coverage my claim was denied. You can reference contract sections and sub-sections, but it doesn't change the fact that CHW takes my payments every month and then, cleverly, figures out how to deny coverage. I pay for appliance coverage, but the refrigerator ice maker isn't covered. My HVAC is covered, but not the gas valve, etc...

One star is too high for this organization. BUYER BEWARE! I would not recommend this company to anyone. I originally filed a claim on 11/13 because our furnace was not working. Choice initially scheduled a visit with a technician quickly and the technician came out and shared that our over 40 year old furnace would likely need to be replaced. He submitted this information to Choice along with an alternative solution of a new circuit board and new thermostat which is the option Choice funded.
The technician came back to install these parts and that still did not fix the problem so they told Choice a second time the furnace would likely need to be replaced. Instead, Choice ordered further diagnostics that identified a multitude of problems: Surging blew the new circuit board so that needs to again be replaced but the entire system needs to be rewired so it stops the surging that blew the board and it also needs a new blower but the technician again shared that with a furnace this old this solution would likely not work and stated the system needs to be replaced as the root cause for all of these issues cannot be fixed due to the age of the furnace. Choice sent the technician out a third time to take pictures to verify what they had in their report which they did.
Instead of processing the claim for a new furnace Choice ordered a second opinion stating that the technician's notes stated they could not diagnose the problem so they could not fix it. This is a lie because the technician walked me through everything he was entering in the notes (the problems shared above) as he was reporting them to Choice. No new technician has been contracted by choice and it is now December 18th and about 20 degrees outside. They have not appropriately escalated or expedited any of this (we are now over a month into the process since the claim was originally filed). I would never do business with Choice Home Warranty again nor would I recommend them to anyone. If you are looking for a home warranty avoid this company at all costs as they do not follow through with the "Service when you need it" claims that they make on their website.

I think 1 star rating is too much. Looks like a total scam to me. Every time I make a claim they reject it by either saying, "You didn't maintain it or it's a part of normal wear and tear." Then after appeals they pay like 50% of the cost of the repair every time I made a claim. My current repair was also declined. I just want them to refund the insurance premium since they aren't going to process any claims ever. The only claims they actually refunded were some bathroom clogging and you don't need an insurance company for that normally. It would be interesting to see how many claims they actually process in a class action suit and audit. Reminds me of the movie The Rainmaker.

The seller was very kind and nice explaining everything and trying to give me their best price. The ONLY thing he didn't mentioned was the Service Call Fee of $65.00. I don't like that because if something covered breaks and I call you for service, it is because I don't know what caused whatever problem there is in the equipment. If it is easily fixed with just a few dollars, they still I have to pay $65.00 for that repair and that is not fair to me.

This is the worst company ever. 3 claims none paid. Doesn’t offer repair folks for reasonable response time. Does not pay claims. Does not send customer service communication as stated, still no email or forms to complain after multiple calls. They call you with automated response for appointments but no such appointment exists with technicians so then you wait another 24 hour period for response.

First, understand that warranty companies only make money when the amount you pay for the agreement is less than what they have to pay. With some customers they lose, and with others they come out ahead. I understand how businesses operate; on average, they need to make money to stay in business. If you are signing up because your house is old and has a lot of problems, realize that many of the needed repairs will likely be excluded. Don't expect to get new appliances when one breaks down. Before you sign up and pay, read the agreement in detail. If you understand the problems in your home, you can make an informed decision. I can understand they can't cover everything, so if you do decide to get a policy, realize they only cover a specific subset of issues; There is a very high likelihood that the repairs you need covered will NOT be covered.
My mistake was not reading the fine print closely enough. I knew there were some exclusions, but I had some claims denied due to exclusions that were debatable. Some exclusions are fairly clear, others not so clear. The first repair we had was a water heater that started leaking. It was actually an excluded item because it was due to corrosion, but they paid a portion anyway when I told them I simply wanted to cancel the policy. I thought that was nice. Other repairs were declined. Freon leaks for refrigerators are not covered, failure due to age or corrosion, plumbing leaks in the foundation/slab, Also realize what the refund policy is; I didn't read it closely enough. We purchased a five year plan for $1,750.
We spent many, many hours on the phone trying to get CHW to cover some repairs, and finally in frustration we cancelled about two years into the agreement. We ended up getting nothing back. I figured we would get some money back, but the fine print says that the refund amount will be the pro rata amount, less any service charges. Had I known I would not have cancelled. It would have been nice if the person who "helped" us with the cancellation had let us know we would get nothing back. For CHW, they get to keep the full amount paid with no further obligation. The only cost is another frustrated customer who might post a negative review.
Overall I would have been better off financially if I never signed up; at best for us it was break-even. If I place a value on the frustration from dealing with the claims process and the MANY hours wasted trying to get them to cover charges, this was a colossal waste. Some of the people at CHW were polite and professional, but others we spoke with were just plain rude, and failed to respond to emails and phone calls.
Some people might have better luck than me, but I do NOT recommend Choice Home Warranty. I do acknowledge my lack of attention to the details of the fine print contributed to this, but in the end, it was the unprofessional manner of some in the claims process that led us to make another irrational decision and cancel when I am SURE they knew we would get nothing back. They said NOTHING to us about getting nothing back in the cancellation. We had to call to be told this. There was no other communication with us that we were not entitled to a refund.

We have had Choice warranty for a little over two years now and to say they are horrible is being humble. They are the worst. First, it has taken them at the very least a week to send out a technician. Every single technician we have had has been unprofessional and clueless as to how to fix the problem. Second, they almost cover nothing, the policy states that they cover a lot but when it comes to getting something fix there is a clause that prevents them from covering it. I once had a claim that took 6 weeks to get resolved. Lastly customer service is not any better, they always refer you to a manager who seems never to know how to resolve any of the issues.

I purchased a contract on a home I bought that was foreclosed on. I had never had a contract with Choice Home Warranty but internet review seemed positive. First call was for a refrigerator that quite running. It was about 2 weeks before a technician came. He said it couldn't be repaired. After a couple more days I was informed it wasn't covered because of poor maintenance. Next the nice looking dual fuel range door latch kept locking and unlocking. The technician assigned y couldn't look at it for over two weeks. Since I had new tenants paying good rent I got my own technician who told me the main board failed causing the latch to malfunction and the parts were no longer available. He talked to authorizations and told me they would allow $400 but I almost immediately was told it was denied as the door latch burned out the main board and doors are not covered.
The third was a water heater that would not stay lighted. The technician said it needed replaced. The claim was denied as they said the technician said there was a leak in the tank and the water put the flame out. Tanks are not covered. There was absolutely no water leak. I appealed each time and was immediately denied and the original reason for denial parroted. The technicians offered to talk to them but that was not entertained. It seems the findings are spun so that the claim can be denied. I then checked with the Better Business Bureau and found there were more than 5000 complaints!

The heating portion of my HVAC stopped working on Saturday afternoon. Called Choice Home Warranty on Sunday morning. They took all my information and within 3 hours I had a response setting up a local company to handle my issue for Monday morning. Local tech was very polite. After telling him the circumstances of the no heat, he went right to work and narrowed the possible problems. Did what he was trained to do and even double checked possible causes to the part failure he replaced. Tech was knowledgeable and very thorough. Made sure everything was running correctly before he left. Upon arriving the tech also took time to meet my pet and made sure my pet was relaxed and comfortable with him in the house. I was impressed!

I would be very careful about using Choice for your warranty needs, they denied a claim on a 17-year old AC unit claiming it was not normal "wear & tear" even though the on-site tech advised that was the case. When I attempted to escalate/dispute with Choice management they dodged my calls and never returned multiple attempts to reach them via email and directly over the phone. I later discovered there is a class-action lawsuit in AZ regarding this company for misleading consumers regarding claims and denying services so I have included myself as part of this suite. I will never use them again nor recommend to anyone.

Our initial experience with Choice Home Warranty was positive. We had a good and friendly salesperson who informed us of discounts available for us and did not try to hard sell us on what we didn't want or need. Our first negative experience was at the end of the first year when our water heater went out. It was an older unit, and we could not fault Choice for the fine print of our contract which stated they would not cover failure of a water heater because of corrosion brought about by age. We didn't like it, but we understood why the claim wasn't covered. We moved shortly thereafter, and we decided to go with Choice again. We began to regret it at once.
This time, we had a sales agent who was one of the rudest salesperson I have ever had the displeasure to deal with. Not only did he try to sell us what we did not want, but he was aggressive, disrespectful, and would not take no for an answer. When I told him firmly we weren't interested in his sales-pitch, he spoke in a derogatory manner and hung up on us. We almost canceled.
Now we wish we had. We had a routine service call for a leaky washer during which it was determined that there was an abnormal tear in our washer boot-seal. Apparently, Choice's default mode is to consider any failure of equipment that cannot be repaired on the spot as "normal" wear and tear for which they aren't responsible. In short, they rejected our claim. This leaves us wondering what they actually will cover, although technically all our major appliances are "covered" by our plan. Apparently, their reflex mode is "Sorry, not our problem." I would encourage consumers to call a few service companies in their area to determine what locals consider to be the best home warranty service.

Earlier I had posted a One-Star Review for Choice Home Warranty because of a disappointing resolution of a claim on an HVAC component. Prior to posting that review I had tried unsuccessfully to reach a more equitable solution. When it didn't happen, I turned to social media. Within hours of that posting, I was contacted by Choice Home Warranty with a very acceptable offer to "make it right". I accepted the offer and rescinded my policy cancellation. In light of the quickness of their response and their desire to do the right thing, I have to give Choice Home Warranty 5 stars. Any large corporation can and will err on occasion -- that's to be expected. But it's difficult to continue to be critical when that company is willing to correct the error and offer an equitable resolution. So I will continue to maintain a healthy business relationship with this company.
Original Review: Dec. 10, 2019
The HVAC company which installed this system when the house was built is the only one who has serviced it since that date, but they aren't on CHW's list of vendors. They do, however, perform a lot of work for other home warranty companies. A main board went out of one the units, and the repair estimate was $431. Upon filing a claim with Choice Home Warranty, they asked for the technician to give them a call, which he did. CHW gave him authorization to effect the repair -- at my expense, but said that I would receive reimbursement within a reasonable amount of time. And this happened. But the amount of reimbursement was $140, about 1/3 of the total cost.
While I did not expect full reimbursement because my vendor was not on their list, I certainly expected the amount to be closer than 1/3! I left a message on my account page regarding this issue, and if it isn't resolved more equitably, I'll be forced to cancel my contract and seek out another company with whom to do business.

We have had Choice Home Warranty for over 2 years. We have never filed a claim this year against our home warranty plan. In November we have to make over 8 phone calls to have choice find someone to correct our heating issue. After we put in the claim we continued to get emails from choice home warranty that they were unable to find anyone to provide services for the problem with our heating.
We ended up having to go to weeks without heat our home temperature was at 58゚. We finally were able to have someone come out to our home However when the technician came to the home and was able to identify the issue I made a decision that my family needed to be kept warm instead of freezing waiting for choice home warranty to provide an authorization to have the work done to repair the heating unit However because of the Fact that we had the heating unit repaired because our home was almost below 40 choice home warranty made the decision not to repair our system.
As stated previously we have had no claims this year with choice home warranty however at the rate we pay per year not to include what we pay out of pocket for our the actual service call cost that we must pay for a technician to even come out to determine the problem, they completely disrespected the help of my elderly disabled mother as well as myself in my husband who are US Army veteran servicemembers and completely disabled.

Choice Home Warranty - Water heater claim. When we signed up for a Choice Home Warranty, they convinced us to pay extra to insure our Seisco tankless electric water heater which we agreed to do and paid extra. They told us that if anything goes wrong with the heater and it is does not work, they would fix or replace it. On September 28th 2019, the heater stopped working and we called in a claim. After some days, a technician called and said he was sure it was the circuit board and he would try and find another one. He could not locate one, but came out to look at the unit anyway. He did some testing and said there was 220 volt power going into the unit, but the circuit board was not sending power to the heating elements. He also said one of the inlet sensing units looked bad which he removed and cleaned. He said it may have had some sediment on it but was working properly.
He left and said he would try and get a board, but that the Seisco company was out of business a few years ago. The claim was assigned to a case manager (Paula) and she said because sediment was mentioned in the report, Choice was not going to cover it. I told the office technicians should realize that the electric circuit board does not come in contact with any water so sediment has nothing to do with the problem. The circuit board is not working and that is the problem and a covered item by Choice. We also had our water tested and the report came back it is a perfect water supply. Paula said she would check with her supervisor. I called her back every few days, no response, then was told she was no longer with the company.
After some days I called and was told Andy was my case manager. Finally spoke to him and he would get the unit repaired or replace the heater and would talk to the technician. I called him every few days, his voice mail said he would get right back to me. Had to request the supervisor of the case managers have somebody call me. Andy finally called on November 14th to say they would not cover any repairs on the unit, claim was closed. I then had to buy a new unit (boards not available) myself and have it installed. The new installer tested the old circuit board and it was not working and when removed and drained the old unit, there was no sediment inside the unit, it was an electrical circuit problem and should have been covered by Choice.
We now have hot water after 2 months. Choice knew replacement parts were not available and they did not want to pay for a new unit. Choice did a terrible job of diagnosing the problem, weeks of delays in calling us back, and did not cover an item that they should have. Before this claim we had a clothes dryer that stopped and they sent a repair company that came out 4 different times to install 4 different parts to try and fix it and it still runs very hot during operation. Choice is very poor to deal with, I would not recommend them as a warranty company and we are going to cancel our contract with them. We will also be posting these comments on Facebook, CR, and other social networks.
