    Positive: 1. Easy to create work order. 2. Repair tech came for first repair visit within 48 hours of creating work order. Not fantastic, but certainly acceptable for this type of repair. 3. Repair tech competent. 4. Repair tech and company friendly, good customer service attitude. Negative: 1. No feedback/email from CHW on whether or not they authorized repair vs. replacement. Repair tech said waiting for parts, so I'm guessing repair was authorized. 2. When I check online status of repair order, it shows status as "closed". But repair is not completed yet. How can it be "closed" if the repair is not completed? 3. No notes online if repair/replacement authorized. 4. Online status showed problem as "mot hiring". What does that mean? The problem was the dryer was not heating up/not drying. What is "mot hiring"? Summary: I think it will all work out in the end. But communications from CHW is both incomplete and incorrect.

    Do NOT fall into this company's trap of a worry free warranty company. The 3 years I used this company they weaseled their way out of covering the item(s). We called maybe 4 times in the 3 years we had them. Each time they would say it's NOT covered according to their contract. The technicians they send are the worst and most unreliable. This company was sued by the N.J. Consumer Affairs and lost for their fraudulent practices. Appears nothing has changed. The ONE star rating is not even adequate for them. STAY AWAY!

    While the price is cheap, so is the service. Our dryer broke a few months ago and someone came out to fix it. The Vendor charged us more than our service fee and it took 2 weeks for him to come back and fix it. The same dryer that they "fixed" broke again a month after. Choice Home Warranty sent a different vendor out to fix the issue. That Vendor charged us and then told us it wasn't his issue, we needed to call an electrician. The electrician came out, charged us and then told us it wasn't his issue, we need to call the Dryer vendor. The dryer vendor came out and told us he couldn't help us. The multiple times I have called Choice Home Warranty to discuss, they tell me there is nothing they can do to help us at this moment. Waste of Money!!! By the time I am done paying service fees, I could just buy a new dryer!

    I placed a claim stating that I had a gas leak coming from the back of my stove. The gas company for my area had to shut off the gas to secure the leak. I had to wait one week before CHOICE got a technician to come to my home. The tech was from Todd's Electronics. I reiterated to him the problem when he arrived. He said he didn't smell gas fumes so it probably wasn't serious. I explained again that the gas was turn off to the house and the gas company said I needed to have the hose replaced. He checked the stove and said I have a loose fitting. He put some tape on the fitting and tightened it up and I was good to go.

    I asked again about the hose replacement, he said he didn't do that because that would has to be done by a gas line person. He was courteous and all but he didn't take gas readings before he left to be sure there was no gas leak. He collected my money and left. When I woke this morning and went downstairs it is filled with distinct gas fumes. Now I have to call the gas company again to have gas shut off and have someone else come to repair the gas line. I WANT MY STOVE FIXED. AND I WANT MY MONEY BACK. I AM NOT A HAPPY CUSTOMER!!!

    First the appointment was made without even confirming with me that the date/time was good. I simply got a voicemail stating when the appointment would be. I would think you would want to confirm the date with the customer. Second, the claim is closed and the issue is not resolved. I don't ever feel a claim should be closed until the issue is fixed. If the issue is not fixed and it requires another vendor to fix, why aren't you referring it to an electrician? Why would I have to open a new claim for the same issue that wasn't resolved?

    Our dishwasher went out so we called the tech... After he determined that it was the circuit board he said that Choice would be reaching out to me to handle the claim for a new dishwasher. Choice then sent me a low ball email offering me $250 for my $800 dishwasher. Choice will look for any way to get out of covering your appliances. We had our garage door stop working a month ago so we called someone out... Long story short: they wouldn’t replace the $100 fuse unless I put new ball bearing wheels on the door. I spent $340. Choice covered the $100 fuse... They should be replacing your systems with the same quality and brand instead of low balling you to save some $$. As soon as I get my low ball check in the mail, I will be canceling my service and switching providers.

Said pollutants cause the corrosion that lead to the leak. Is any homeowner spraying pollutants on their evap coils? Do we even know what that is to do that? I don't think so. If it is corroded, it happened as a result of natural use of the home and should be covered. They told me they won't and won't even pay to put Freon in it to get it going temporarily.

    A big WARNING folks: stay away. The scam works this way: you have 30 days 'to try and cancel the insurance if unsatisfied'. Within 30 days, you can't actually put a service request. So you have no way to know what awaits. After 30 days the nightmare starts. You put a request, long delay to get the technician to your place (7 days), technician is often uncertified, the claim is promptly denied. You are upset and now you want to cancel the contract, but you cannot anymore. The contract says that CHW can deny your request and they will. Because they just want to hold onto your money.

The cost of the policy plus the cost of replacing at $10,000 ac unit just does not add up to me. Plus I had to pay a $45 service charge on top of the $10,000.

    Air conditioner not working. We were very disappointed as far as waiting time to have it serviced. One of the reasons, if not the main one, was that when I, Isabel, called to get information about your services and changed companies was that I was told that you have prompt service when we call with a problem as we are disabled persons with heart condition and being that there was no air in the house we had problem BREATHING and I was told that persons with emergency problems that you will consider that and that we would be served on the same day, especially with the air conditioning not working and they refused to send a technician the same day.

    From what I see that was only a tactic on your part to get us to change companies. Like I said even when I told the person that was taking the information to come to our house, she did not pay any attention of our health condition and we had no place to go and was very inconvenient to leave the house. Very disappointed. You treated us like a customer with no health conditions especially when inside the house was well over 80 degrees.

Choice assured me that their turn around time was usually less than 24 hours. I was skeptical, but yesterday they were put to the test. My AC went out in the afternoon and someone called that night and was out to my home in the morning. I am glad they kept their word and lived up to their claims.

    We submitted a claim for our tenant's microwave, which was having issues on and off. They have been having to unplug it so the fan doesn't run or so it doesn't go on and off by itself. Sometimes it just wouldn't work... weird stuff. Sometimes it would work fine but it had been a constant battle for them the past month. At first, the response from Choice was timely and we felt good about the service. We received notification that the repair company would be out a couple days later between the hours of 3-8pm, which was a little frustrating due to our busy schedules, but manageable. Then, the repair company postponed our appointment last minute FOUR TIMES before finally getting to the house.

    Not only did they postpone several times, but the notification was by email only. Our poor tenant had to move her life around for an entire week waiting on this guy. Then, when he finally got there yesterday evening, he wouldn't do anything for the microwave because it was acting fine during the 5 minutes he was there. He told them to leave the microwave plugged in and call again when the fan turned on or it started having issues again, but that is very unrealistic if it takes an entire week for them to come out in the first place! Not sure what we're going to do, but we would appreciate a timely response in the future.

    This company was helpful as I signed up for a warranty on my newly purchased home, and that's where my positive comments end. My hot water heater broke and they sent someone out to look at it. That person showed up an hour after the 4-hour appointment window, overturned a bucket with water in it directly on my basement floor getting personal items wet, and "fixed" it. It broke again, they came back and said the whole unit needed to be replaced "because it was old" but it wasn't covered. I called a second technician (outside of the warranty) to get a second opinion, and he told me the unit was fine and only needed one part to be replaced.

    Despite Choice Home Warranty stating they would honor this report, and the part being explicitly listed on the "covered" items in the book they gave me, CHW refused to cover this. In fact, they knowingly falsified the report in my file THREE SEPARATE TIMES saying a different, non-covered part was the cause of the unit to break, none of which was true. I spent hours upon hours on the phone with various people from CHW, trying to correct their intentional mistakes, to the point of being in tears because I could not believe any company could be this awful to customers. Their last tactic was to say that because my water heater did not have an expansion tank, it was not up to code and therefore they wouldn't cover replacing it.

    First, that had nothing to do with it breaking, and second, my water heater was installed before an expansion tank was required by code. I know that because I had to extensively research the make and model online, look through installation instructions to that specific model year, then threaten CHW with a lawsuit. In the end, the reimbursed me for $200 of a $1,200 new unit. When I tried to cancel my policy (because they tell you you can cancel anytime and get a refund), they told me the way the payments are set up, I had already "paid" for my remaining 2 years and couldn't get any money back.

    As if all of this isn't enough, I've been getting phone calls, text messages, and emails DAILY, for over a month, from CHW begging me to renew my policy, even though I've told them at least 5 times to remove my phone number from their list. One cheerful sales representative kept transferring me to customer service, where I'd be put on hold. I called back and asked to speak to his manager, and he transferred me to customer service again. When I called again, he sent my call to his voicemail. On the 10th attempt, I spoke to a very friendly gentleman named Tom who apologized for his coworkers behavior and said he could help me and removed my number from their call list. In my experience, this company is unethical and disgraceful. I will NEVER use or recommend this company, as it is honestly the worst company I have ever dealt with. I recommend others stay away as well.

On Sep 4th, Tommy calls with $3,550 cost ($1050 Appliance + $1,800 labor + $700 Choice Home will reimburse) for 16 SEER unit. I agreed with cost and provides my credit card details.

I paid for the Total package which is SUPPOSED to cover appliances as well. I have made 2 claims so far. Right after we moved in, the A/C stopped cooling. We called it in and the claim was denied. They said that it was pre-existing so they won't cover it. That cost me $750. The 2nd claim I made was because my freezer stopped working. Their excuse this time was that the part was under warranty by the manufacturer so they won't cover it. After calling the manufacturer myself, I found out the part that I need is actually NOT under warranty but since the tech that came out THOUGHT it was, they sided with them without doing any more research. Now I am having to pay for the part and labor plus I had to pay the $65 service fee to their tech that did nothing.

Bottom line, they need more people answering phones. This time I chose to pick my own contractor because they couldn’t find one quickly enough. The contractor was supposed to get preapproval before the work was done. He tried for an hour to get a hold of CHW, and couldn’t. That is unacceptable. After an hour, he had to leave or risk his job. I tried for an additional hour to reach them. When I finally did, I was bounced around to five different people before anybody could answer my question or give me the information I needed.

When I called CHW I was told this was correct and would take 3-5 business days for parts to be received. I requested that this be expedited since water on the floor was a safety hazard to me. I was told all this was in acceptable guidelines for CHW. The agent was polite and apologetic but I wish she had gone the extra mile to help me. I do look forward to getting my freezer fixed.

    Air Conditioner Blower Wheel came apart. Choice refused to cover the claim because of normal wear and tear. Blower Wheels do not wear out. I called Lennox who stated the wheel is not a part that experiences wear and tear. Over 9 years we have changed the filters so often the technician stated, "the unit looks new and no dust on the blower wheel."

    Earlier this year the refrigerator went out. Choice refused to cover the claim because the 3 technicians they sent were not certified to work on our model. What does their failure to have certified contractors have to do with us being without a refrigerator for 6 weeks? After 12 visits from 3 Choice referred companies and finally having a certified LG technician make several visits, Choice refused to honor their agreement and would not replace the unit as stated in the contract. We paid for the repair out of pocket. Two sides to every story. My side is the Gospel Truth. Texas would do well to prevent Choice from conducting business in the Lone Star State.

    On another occasions a technician intimidated my wife trying to get her to pay extra which is against Choice Policy. I was out of town on business and asked the technician to work through Choice HW as stated in his contract. The technician knew he was caught so he left without repairing the AC during an over 95 degree day. Eventually Choice had it repaired. If you make a claim, stick with it because more times than not Choice denies the claim under "Normal Wear and Tear" exclusion. Choice makes unsubstantiated judgments in hopes you will not ask for a review. Remain engaged.

    My dishwasher's heating system failed. A tech was sent out the next day which was great. He said that the heating element and control panel were broken. Choice said it wasn't worth fixing and that they would only give me a check for $260. I sent Choice the cost that it would be to replace a similar unit from Home Depot with links to the costs. It is going to cost me around $700 to replace it, have it installed, and the old one carried off. The low end at Home Depot would cost around $330. The manager said they don't provide funds to replace it for a similar machine. I feel like since Choice decided not to pay to have it fixed, they should give enough money to buy a comparable one. I requested more money but the manager said no. I am pretty much stuck with a home warranty and a $700 bill minus $260 to get a comparable machine.

    Heat pump continuously turns off. AC runs for hours. Temperature never changes as unit is running. The only time it changes is when the heat pump is not running and the temperature goes up. When the heat pump does work, it takes up to four to five hours for the temperature to get to the setting on the thermostat. The thermostat is set at 78 degrees. The AC will come on with the temp at 78 degrees and run for 30 mins and the temp never changes. The temp is still at 78 degrees when unit turns off.

    Technician came here last night about 9:30. Told me that the water line was clogged. I told him that I had already clear that earlier and still had the same problem. He clear the line, placed some tablets in the unit and said that would fix the problem. He paid no attention to what told him of the unit running for hours and no change in temperature. After he left, the temp in the house was 82 degrees. He left at approximately 10:30 PM. It took the unit over 3 hrs to bring the temp to the setting of 78 degrees. I tried calling him today and got no reply. Left him a message. The unit is still doing what it was doing prior to him fixing the problem. The problem is the same and I paid $145.00 and still have the same problem.

Had to have plumber come back for same problem (water kept running in bowl). Another time toilets were backing up. Said they would have to go on roof and they don't do that and told me call Roto-Rooter. So I called them and their plumber knew right away it was the main and snaked it out, which cost me $500. When I complained this was covered they only gave me $180 refund. Now air conditioner problem. They send someone that tells me it’s my variable speed motor, not covered but he could replace it for $325 on his own. Found this suspicious so called a reputable Company used before and told me not only did I not need a new motor, (real cost $1,600 and still under warranty) he had switched my wires so things in outside unit would burn out.

    Since then I have had to have service to outside unit quite a few times and would not think about calling Choice Home Warranty. Was told I need a new unit as this one is about 10 yrs and going. Thinking maybe this is covered by Choice Home Warranty, I have call for a service call. Scanning their book it looks like they will only replace a 13 seer unit which most homeowner in Florida need at least a 19. The salesman Eric made this warranty sound soooo good that I bought a 3 yr contract. When I inquired about cancelling I was told since I used them a few times and got the $180. They take that all off your payment $1,975 plus they charge a percentage so I am not entitled to any money back. Read their contract book carefully, which I wish I had done. Most things excluded are probably what you will need. I never write reviews, but this company needs to be shut down.

    If I could give zero stars, I would. This company is just a scam. They are in it for the money, and not willing to work with you on anything. When you try to make a claim, they make it nearly impossible for you to get a hold of them, no company wants to contract with them due to their terrible customer service and wait times, and when you do finally get a hold of someone, they refuse to repair the issue because there is some small print somewhere that gets them out of doing anything they claim to do for you. I have had them for less than a year, and have had 3 claims... CHW has NOT COVERED A SINGLE THING!!! On one issue, they couldn't even get a company to come out and look at the pipes, because every business in the area has dropped them due to their terrible customer service and failure to actually approve a claim. No one wants to work with them.

    The 2nd claim, I finally got someone to come out, and CHW wouldn't answer their phones to deny or approve the claim, so I had to wait a week (trying everyday to get a hold of someone) until I finally was able to talk to someone, and the claim was denied anyway because of the small print. They cover all plumbing issues, except everything in the small print, which is a ton.

    The third claim I had, they refused to even have someone come out and look at it (garage door broke) because they said that only the motor of the garage is covered. When I signed the contract, they make you think that since the garage door is covered, everything about the garage door is covered. They are sneaky and underhanded people who will worm their way out of paying any kind of money for a repair. Do not do business with these people!

    My refrigerator first needed repair in June. The technician came out to diagnose the problem, told me it would be five days for the part to come in, and then left the country without telling anyone. Three weeks later and after me calling a couple of times to find out where he was, he came back to finish the job. The problem reappeared a couple of months later and I was told I had to pay another service fee, which I had no choice but to do (I believe the work should have a longer guarantee, but was told Samsung always has something new going wrong with it).

    The technician didn't show up, nor did he call. Choice told me they would have another technician call to schedule, which they did not, so I asked if I could hire my own technician. I was told I could and they would reimburse me. They offered $97.50 for a $350 repair, citing that the fee my technician was charging was excessive. They further stated that their agreement to reimburse was only for their standard rate - which was absolute news to me because that hadn't been communicated on the phone or in the email they sent to me about reimbursement.

    After a half hour on the phone, Sam - who works at a higher level in resolutions, was able to offer $140. I did not get that in writing, however, so I'm trusting it will be honored. I love the idea of having a home warranty so I can make a phone call and get the problem fixed.

They have so many stipulations to what is covered and not and most likely any repair that they can get away with will not be covered. I invest over 3000 dollars with them and worst decision I ever made in my life.

    Claim processing, communications, claim updates, and professionalism of the diagnostic representative. Unfortunately, the diagnostic appointment does not have the appropriate tools to remedy some common issues even after provided a possible course of action to fix the problem mentioned in the claim. Outside of that, very thorough visit identifying requirements to address//fix problems in the claim.

    The agent for Angel AC was very professional. My appointment was between 11 am and 3 pm, he arrived at 9:45 am. He repaired the broken part and he was gone. Job well done. I would recommend to a friend anytime. The service was great.

    Once again we pay to have a technician come out and they cannot get it to duplicate what we dealt with for 4 days. We finally get the damper to open and then the technician cannot get it to stick again. This is the 3rd visit we have had only for nothing to be done. Every time it has been related to the damper. The technician says if I cannot get it to duplicate then warranty will not fix it.

    The Claims Dept is trying to get out of paying for the compressor in my air conditioner outside unit by lying and saying that the service provider they sent out told them that it was repaired by an outside provider, when it wasn’t. The Claims Dept then changed their story to say that it now not covered because of excessive wear and tear. Because of the way I’ve been treated with the this claim, I filed complaints against Choice Home Warranty with the Texas Attorney General office, the Texas Real Estate Commission and the New Jersey BBB hoping it helps to be reimbursed for the compressor cost I had to pay for this AC repair.

    I lodged complaint two months before, still it has not been fixed. I called them several times. Technicians emailed to me for appointment. But they didn’t show up. I am totally fed up. Insurance company instructed me to find my own technician. But I couldn’t find out the technician.

    I saw water dripping from the pvc above my water heater and scheduled repair. The repairman saw the leak, told me I had a leak then said he had to call my insurance to see if it was covered. He then notified me that he was on hold and while he waited I had to give him the $60 deductible which I did, then he left! No repair, no explanation, he just left. You people just suck!

    Choice offered to provide funding for the replacement of my range based on the repair cost. The offer was fair considering the age of my range. I would highly recommend Choice to my friends. And have recommended them already. They have performed other repairs for me and the contractors they have sent have been very professional and timely.

    Made me a deal I couldn’t refuse. Price and value that is without flaw. For a senior on a fixed income I wouldn’t be able to match this offer anywhere on a home warranty plan. It was meant to be I’m sure because I feel confident that after the first year's experience I know what I’m getting for my money. Worked with someone who understands how important value is to me.

    Henderson mechanic supposed to have fixed my AC problem. Didn’t check the cause of the problem. Didn’t report the correct issue that caused the circuit board to go out. I had to pay 435.00. I keep calling the review rep. She called back after a week and I paid the bill. She did refund 200.00 today after I called 20 times. Monday I have AC problem again. Water damage from the Henderson company not doing a good job. AC leaking.
