My A/C unit wasn't cooling the house. The air coming out was warm. He is a very professional gentleman. The job was done quickly. He called the morning to inform me he was coming today. He arrived on time and it took him less than 30 minutes to fix the problem. Great job!

I called for service because the main drain to my house was clogged. One hour later the repair woman was at my house. She snaked the drain. It took about an hour. In two hours from the time I called my drain was cleared. You cannot ask for better service than that. Thank you, this was the fastest repair service I have ever received.

CHW was unable to find a plumber in the area to repair a toilet & advised me to find my own plumber. I did so & when the plumber arrived, we waited on hold for over 20 minutes for someone to authorize the claim. Since the toilet was on a recall list, they were unable to authorize a repair & told me to contact Kohler directly. Kohler referred me to the company that was handling recall claims to try and get some type of reimbursement. Meanwhile...toilet still didn’t work so I paid for a replacement toilet myself. CHW is not worth the price of the insurance & I will not renew.

I filed a claim for a water heater replacement on April 22, 2019. I specifically asked and was told the water heater was covered. Not so true. The CHW was unable to find a plumber to accept the call. I chose to arrange my own and get reimbursed. The plumber called in for approval with the cost and CHW would get back with me on the decision. The claim was denied related to item D6. Item D6 is below. The heater was 17 years old and rusted out. I did appeal on April 23, 2019. No luck. I don't understand how CHW can list water heater replacement on the items they approve/cover and the ~15 exclusion including the water tank they don't. I am an adult who didn't do enough research. Take heed to my loss. BTW I'm out 1614.12. I could have replaced it myself for 400.00. I will not renew and will not give recommendations for this company.

I've had an account with Choice Home Warranty for a couple of years and called them to file a claim today for a microwave that broke. I learned that the microwave wasn't covered because it was not a built in. Ok, no argument there. However, I was then told that my account would be coming up for renewal soon, and if I renewed TODAY, they would waive the $45 service call, replace the microwave with a new one (even though it was a stand alone), and they would add an extra free month to my contract. The rep seemed to be having a little difficulty with English, and I repeatedly asked her if she was sure of her information. She repeatedly replied "yes."
When I asked her to send me an email confirming what she told me, she put me on a lengthy "hold," and when she returned she said all she could do was waive the $45 service charge, but could not replace the microwave if it couldn't be fixed. In addition, I would have to pay for the repairs if it could be fixed. Sorry, Choice Home, but you've lost my trust!!!

Water heater had small leak in tank last week and their exclusion stated do not cover holding tanks even though they say the cover water heaters. A water heater is a holding tank is it not? No resolutions. Had to pay myself. Next an air conditioner had Freon leak. Again, exclusion stated does not cover a leak as leaks occur through corrosion and rust. Even if I get leak fixed they will not cover the Freon replacement because leak was from rust or corrosion per their exclusion. Not seeing the value of pay monthly payments to have them deny any large ticket item due to "exclusions". Claim specialists either would not call my property manager back or are not willing to assist on any items. Is this really worth it? Not in my experiences.

The condenser fan motor blade of our AC unit cracked and broke off, this caused further damage to the coil and the motor to run off balance. The coil damage led to refrigerant loss. Choice Home Warranty is claiming that this is not a failure that occurs under normal wear and tear conditions and refusing to cover the claim. Both myself and the technician who inspected the AC unit explained to the rude and unhelpful CM assigned to our case (Yvette **) that metal fatigue routinely leads to cracks in moving metal parts such as blades and causes fractures. I have requested that my complaint be escalated to Yvette **'s boss to no avail. I have filed a claim with BBB and will also file a lawsuit.

This company advertises that they are the answer to high HVAC bills; however, they have a multitude of exclusions which, in effect, render their insurance null and void. This has happened to us with our HVAC system and with other minor claims which we attempted to file. Their stock and trade answer is: "That is due to normal wear and tear and is therefore not covered." Warning: It's too late for us, but prospective buyers, READ THE FINE, FINE PRINT and ask about specific situations which might come up with your situation. When we attempted to cancel our contract we were told that there is a high cancellation fee. In other words, we're stuck!

This is only the second time I have had to make a claim. The first time was a terrible experience as well. I purchased the appropriate ice maker coverage for my refrigerator last year and I am just now using it. The ice maker stopped dispensing ice. The repairman came out after I had already dismissed the issue and Gave him the answers. He called in and the claim was denied. I received a letter of denial which stated it didn't fall within the appropriate guidelines as follows:
Are located inside the confines of the main foundation of the home or attached or detached garage (with the exception of the exterior pool/spa, well pump, septic tank pumping and air conditioner); and Become inoperative due to normal wear and tear; and Are in place and in proper working order on the effective date of this home warranty contract. This contract does not cover any known or unknown pre-existing conditions. Coverage is for occupied, owned or rented residential property.
The broken part that controls the lender to dispense ice absolutely falls within these guidelines as having broken under normal wear and tear circumstances. I have the broken piece right now. There is no other way to have failed. Despite the common sense behind it I was denied. Of course AFTER I had already paid my $60 deductible (which should be paid after the claim is accepted/denied. Not before). So now I am out $60. I could have bought the part and replaced it myself for $80 but I figured I have this specific coverage and a warranty with the repairs so I made the claim and paid it. Now because of some ridiculous ambiguous loop hole this company denied me and I will have spent $140. I'd like to know what they DO cover.
I will attempt to speak with a manager tomorrow to rectify the issue or get a refund on my deductible. If a satisfactory resolution is not reached I am dumping this company all together. Truthfully I should have dumped them after the first fight I had to make with that LEGITIMATE claim. I, at this point, would highly discourage anyone from contacting with this company.

Very dissatisfied with my experience. What's the point of having a warranty program if they won't pay for what they are liable for? Called about our a/c not working on 4/9/19-claim submitted. Technician came to our house the very next day-which was great! Tech had poor words to say about this company which was a huge red flag right off the bat. He stated that the control board would need replaced. He stated that the cost for the part alone would be $500, took our $60 check for the service call and said he would be getting in touch with them right away.
The next day he said he spoke with them and they felt they could get the part cheaper through their purchasing department. Eventually they said that our claim was approved via e-mail. However the same day the tech called and said that our particular model of Trane furnace required a kit that included the control board and other items in order for the component to work together-the control board is not sold separately.
That same day we received 2 denial e-mails stating the reason for the denial was because they don't cover "modifications." They were willing "as a goodwill gesture" to pay first $200 then (in a second e-mail) $250 towards the claim but that at the time of the work, we needed to pay $864.00 to the tech. Wait, what?! I called a Trane manufacturer and confirmed that this is not a modification-this is the fix for the control board.
We submitted an appeal and included the written information from the manufacturer. To no avail-but their offer did increase to $400. Please note that the average cost of a control board replacement including labor is $400-$600. Tashay **, our case manager told me that their contract with their technicians for this type of job is only $300. Based upon what the tech told us on day one-the control board itself is $500- so from the get-go we are getting taken advantage of. Apparently, the tech can then charge the homeowner whatever they want...
Here is the math: $1174 total for the job (according to the tech although I have seen NO paperwork), $864 for the part (according to the tech) and roughly $250 to install. I called Trane again and the part is only $611 plus the $250 labor. As I sit here now writing this-nearly 2 weeks later-I can say that I have spent roughly 3 full days working on this issue over the last 2 weeks. I am out the $60 and our a/c still isn't working and hasn't been repaired.
Today the case manager accused me of arguing with her when I question her math or challenge her position. Really? I am a customer and consumer and I know b/s when I see it. From the very beginning our experience with them and their tech has been very frustrating. We have paid our monthly premium for two years and they arbitrarily throw out a random number for how much they will pay on a claim for a system that was covered. They get the make their own definitions of "modification" and have a denial for every claim. This is what they get paid to do. This company is fraudulent and I will be reporting to the BBB and department of insurance.

The first person sent to fix my stopped up toilet damaged the toilet but was able to get it unstopped. Unfortunately the solution was only good for a couple weeks. A second person said he couldn’t fix it because his equipment wasn’t long enough. Then Choice tells me it is outside their contract. It is in the plumbing line within the house boundaries. Very very disappointed and feeling like the warranty isn’t worth the money I spent on it.

My husband and I are senior citizens and on a fixed income so I thought we needed a home warranty to protect us in case anything went wrong! My husband got sick (Dementia) and my Mother just died of Dementia, I was happy with my home warranty even though they were expensive and Choice kept calling me to tell me that I could save a lot of money and all I saw on their site was "NEVER PAY FOR COVERED HOME REPAIRS AGAIN" "CAN YOU AFFORD TO REPLACE YOUR AC AND HEATING SYSTEM and "IF WE CAN'T FIX IT WE'LL REPLACE IT" so I thought well my old one was good so they must be good! My big Mistake, they lie over and over again!
I went with Choice and 3 months later my AC unit went out for the first time so I called them! They sent a tech out that I had to pay $60.00 to tell me it was the coils and my fault! BTY, I have never heard of coils then he told me that it would not be covered because Choice never covers anything but small claims. I was denied and was given a case manager! It was so hot in the condo that when I called the doctor about my husband not sleeping getting agitated and being confused he told me to go to the ER and make sure that he didn't have a stroke. It was all from the heat. I called to tell the case manager and she offered me $200.00 that I turned down.
I filed a claim with the BBB and via the BBB they offered me the $200.00 for good faith AND & 1250.00 which I was going to accept but I just wanted to know if they were offering me both or just the $1250.00. That was a trick because the next day the case manager called me to tell me that the $1250.00 was an error. How do you make an error like that? They only cover small claims no matter who you are or what you pay! It is a scam and false advertising! I just want what was promised to me! I think the CEO of the company should sit in a condo for 2 weeks in Florida with no air and maybe he will change! We don't have the money to get it fixed or to buy one and they lied to us I never got a contract. The sad part is my old warranty would have covered this and I would be sitting in AC!

In November 2018, I called Choice Home Warranty for warranty insurance for the condominium unit at **. Wayne from sales took the call and sold the plan to me. I was very specific of not being tied down to a contract and agreed to pay only if I had the right to cancel anytime without penalty. He confirmed to me that there was no catch and that I was free to get out ANYtime without fees or penalty. It was on these contract terms that I gave my credit card as payment. I paid for other properties as well. I already had insurance with another warranty company for those properties and subsequently decided not to break those contracts and cancelled those and continued coverage only for NY property.
I paid 1,750 for 60 months coverage from December 30, 2018. Wayne said that I would get an additional year for free and hence technically the payment was for 72 months. I have had the contract for 4 months December 30 2018 to April 16 2019 and am unable to utilize since the contractors they use do not have adequate insurance or workers comp. The building has refused every single contractor that this company sent. I had to finally get outside contractors to do the repair work and had Choice Home Warranty approve, authorize and pay for the work done. Hence it is not working out for me and called to cancel the policy today (after 4 months) and asked for refund for remaining 56 months.
The prorated refund will be $1,633.34. They also have a balance due to me for $121.76 for work that was completed by an outside contractor. Today when I called to cancel and ask for refund the terms stated were different to what Wayne and I had agreed on the day of payment. They said there will be administration fee of $50 and the monthly dues will be calculated by some other formulae and the balance refundable to me would be $500 less. I believe this company is taking consumers’ money under false marketing and sales tactics. I am requesting refund on terms that I agreed. On one occasion the contractor that was assigned to do the repair had a felony and an alias name and since I scrutinize all contractors before they enter found this out. I am questioning the company’s guidelines and procedures on security, license and insurance checks as well.

We filed claim on our Kenmore Elite side by side refrigerator with Grab-N-Go door that it was not cooling and compressor was running. It was installed in October 2014 and cost $2,800 on sale. We were pleased to get an appointment with service technician the next day. He came and confirmed compressor needed to be replaced. That is when our dissatisfaction and disappointment started. Choice Home Warranty received technicians repair request. Within hour or so I received a call and email noting I had great news. The company indicated it was best to replace vs repair and offered me $600. I immediately declined and shortly received a call from Case Manager explaining the basis for their decision and repeatedly told me they had sole responsibility to make the decision to replace. Yes, this is written under limitations of liability.
The cost to replace compressor was $800. To purchase a like refrigerator is in range of $2700-$3000 plus tax depending on sale price. I finally agreed to have them send me $600 and we are repairing. Hopefully, I will get a check within 30 days as noted. I am assuming they are saving $200 and more importantly we will be unable to file a second claim on our refrigerator. Very disappointing considering sales pitch to purchase Warranty. Ask questions regarding limits of liability before purchasing.

Secondly, I want understand why so quoting the section of the contract is great and you do that well. Thirdly, in the event your staff has misunderstood the situation, I want a way to speak to someone to ensure I fully understand any nuances provided by the particular situation so I can understand why it was not covered.
In addition to this, the reimbursement process is simply not fair to suggest the worker has to stop what he/she is doing and wait on hold for 10-30 minutes so they can explain the details to a CHW specialist.

When I submitted this claim on 4-3-19 it was assigned to Contractor Plus. The service tech who arrived was very friendly and seemed knowledgeable. He agreed with me that the problem with my washer was the cold water intake valve. I then paid him the $45.00 co-pay. He said he would return the following day with the replacement between noon and 2 p.m.. At 3:30 p.m. I called him to see if he was coming and he said he would be at my house within a few minutes. He never showed up!
The next morning I Choice Warranty and resubmitted my claim. This time I was put in touch with a company called Zaki-HVAC. They were fantastic! I gave them them the model number of my machine and the next day their tech named Rod arrived with the replacement valve and installed it within an hour. Both the gentleman I spoke with on the phone at Zaki-HVAC and Rod were very friendly and extremely professional. I am impressed! Should I have another appliance issue I hope Zaki-HVAC is the contractor assigned. My rating of 4 would have been a 5 if Zaki-HVAC would have been the initial contractor for this order. The agents I spoke with at Choice Warranty regarding this order were also very friendly and helpful. They are equally appreciated. Thank you.

Filed claim for microwave, repair person promptly assigned and appointment scheduled. Repair person reschedule 4 times over, 3 weeks, never showed. Second repair person scheduled, showed up when scheduled. Microwave not repairable. Choice offered me cash which was way below cost to replace. After accepting cash offer, Choice said takes 3 to, 4 weeks to issue check. So by the time check is received it will have been 2 months from first filing claim. WHAT would happen if heating system fails in winter?? TWO months without heat. It does not take 3 to 4 weeks to cut check. Totally wouldn't recommend CHOICE.

I purchased the Choice Home Warranty 9 months ago. I payed 1050.00. The first time I had an opportunity to use the warranty I was very disappointed. This is a ripoff. I would never recommend Choice Home Warranty to anyone. For what I paid for the Choice Home Warranty I could have repaired my own appliances without the hassles and headaches.

The salesman was rude. He tried several times to sell me more although I told him several times I only needed 1 year coverage. Then he told me they will up the price next year if I don't buy 3 or 5 year coverage. I also wish they have a monthly payment plus the price on the website was cheaper than the salesman said. When I asked he said the website hasn't been updated in years.

UPDATED 05/31/2019: AC problem - not cooling. Choice was quick to assign service provider of high quality. He diagnosed the problem and approval was obatained from Choice for the fix. The fix was approved without a hitch. The part was ordered and installed in a couple of days. Good Job Choice. This issue was handled quickly with the utmost professionalism.
Original Review: Changed Home Warranty companies this year by deciding to give Choice a try. You have to be a technician to understand all their exclusions but their marketing drip leads you to believe they cover all major component of Air Conditioning units. They don't. There are many internal parts within an AC that can wear out over time…. like the thermal expansion valve. For unknown reasons they have excluded this. Mine went out and therefore they will not cover. IF you go on to read all the exclusions.... there are many unfamiliar parts to most people they exclude. Yet their marketing dribble leads you to believe "you're Covered". The list of exclusions are long enough that I think they probably have an exit point for most problems. You have to almost be an HVAC expert to understand if the coverage is truly worth it given all the exclusions.

My heating system quit working one Saturday morning. Choice Home Warranty was pretty good about setting up a appointment for a tech to show up and look at the unit. The tech got the unit working but advised me the gas valve and a igniter cable were bad. The valve and cable needed to be replaced in order for the unit to continue working. Choice Home Warranty denied my claim based on the fact the contract would not replace valves. This unit was approximately 30 years old and the tech was unable to find a gas valve or igniter cable anywhere. The heating unit is now worthless and not working because of its age and the unavailability of parts.
I live at 3150 foot elevation, so it’s fairly cold during the winter and spring. As parts are not available, I was under the impression Choice Home Warranty might offer some assistance or possible direct me in a way that I might get this unit working. I received a E-mail telling me they were denying my claim and how to appeal. Very cold, and direct to the point, no compassion or any hint of helping out. I have not contacted Home Warranty yet, but I will. I am very dissatisfied with the manner and tone of how this claim was handled. I will file a appeal and see what happens. I don't suspect much will take place.

I don’t think your reason for rejecting my claim is fair or valid. The only reason that most of your customers (assuming they are like me) pay for your service is to not have to worry about or take additional time to rectify the problem. Your protocol in processing the claims only lengthens the process and adds to the problem.

I tried using my Choice Home Warranty last year for a problem with my AC then I tried using them again for a completely different problem and BOTH times my claims were denied. I was given some lame excuse for the denial. I am not an AC technician and cannot predict the future and that's why I purchased their Home warranty. I am waiting for my appeal to be processed and if it is denied, I will cancel my warranty protection. I was duped into thinking that this process would be painless and easy, but I was wrong.

I have been without water for 3 days. Yesterday a MR Plumber employee came to my house. Checked out my pump, never mentioning they did not work on pumps. He said the next time he came back there wouldn't be a service charge. He also said someone would call me within an hour. After 2 hours I called Choice to find out what was going on. They couldn't tell me until the report came in from MR Plumber. I called MR Plumber and they told me they don't do pumps. I called Choice and was told they would get someone else. It is 6:30 pm and I haven't heard anything. So I guess you could say I am very fed up with Choice.

Choice warranty does not live up to the promise of: "If We Can't Fix It, We'll Replace It". If the technician comes out and cannot perform a covered repair, CHW will replace the unit". The customer service is poor and if we disagree with their claim determination there is no appeal process. The case manager told me that I can not speak with the next level manager nor make a verbal or written complaint. She was the ultimate authority and the 2-options she gave are final. Although it was on the website - "In the event that CHW makes such payment, CHW will provide written notification of the basis for the amount of the payment", she would not give any explanation nor written notification of basis other than saying that it was their cost.
I was offered $600 for heat exchanger repair for broken furnace (which neither Choice Warranty nor the technician they sent would repair) vs the market cost of heat exchanger repair of approx $1500 (as quoted by the repair technician). The claim process itself is too slow and I would not recommend this to anyone! Just we were lucky that it happened at the end of winter, so it was OK to be without furnace heating for few days and wait. What could have happened if this to happen in the peak of winter. I have paid the premiums for last 4 years and needless to say that I will not renew with them!

iFirst of all no thanks to Home warranty and that I could be not typing this letter because of the circumstances. A month ago I got up to go to work and had no hot water so I went outside to look at the water heater and smelled a strong odor of gas coming from the area. I then proceeded to call Choice Warranty and they called me back a week later in which I could have been doomed by then. The washer and dryer quit working so I again notified them on Monday and they did call back on Tuesday and told me a repair person would get in touch with me. Here it is Thursday. Still no one has called so I had to buy me a washer and a dryer because I need clean clothes. So my experience so far is I could be dead, I could smell bad. No bath and I could be wearing dirty clothes. What a experience.
