I was told everything was covered. According to the contract, many things are excluded. This is dishonest in my opinion, and I sincerely hope it does lead to cancellation. Exclusions were never mentioned—just tried to sell me a longer plan.

Last February our oven stopped working so we filed a claim with CHW. They were very responsive and sent a technician to repair the oven in a timely manner. We renewed our contract a couple of months later and unfortunately our oven broke again in November. We filed a claim in December expecting the same level of service, but have been VERY DISAPPOINTED in the level of service we've received with this second claim. CHW sent a technician to assess the oven, but after submitting his recommendation for the necessary repair CHW determined the technician (one that they had selected) to be "unqualified to trouble-shoot ovens".
After numerous emails and calls with extremely long hold periods to follow-up on the claim, they finally sent a new technician to our home for a second opinion (1 month later). The second technician submitted his findings and now CHW is denying the claim stating that the technician has reported multiple issues needing repair which the warranty company deems outside of the "normal wear and tear" policy (even though one of the issues is with the same part CHW's technician replaced in February). After being on the phone with multiple representatives they cannot provide an answer as to why certain repairs were covered under the exact same plan last February, but not covered now which leads me to conclude CHW uses loopholes in the contract to enable them to avoid payment of repairs. As a result, I would NOT recommend doing business with this company!

My A/C unit broke a couple months ago and I am still trying to get reimbursed. CHW originally denied the claim stating that mold was the cause of the failure after a tech said there was some biological growth inside the unit. I paid over $400 to have a mold test done which came back as being negative for mold. I give CHW the results and then they change their mind and say the unit failed because of rust or corrosion.
I had two different A/C companies come look at the air conditioning unit and both verified that rust or corrosion was not an issue and did not cause the failure of the evaporator coil. The A/C company even called and explained to the representative this very thing. This company was not even the contracted company. They had nothing to gain and everything to lose being they would lose business if CHW honored the claim. CHW also refuses to give me anything in writing for my records. They always want me to call even after I explain to them I want written correspondence for my records.

I was so upset when I called to place my claim. But, your Representative was so very nice and patient while she listened and took my information.

The claim assistant was just great. She was able to answer all questions, even those not specific to this claim. The only problem I have in speaking with her then the conversation with Lewis ** is the discrepancy in information they gave me concerning when your company actually request maintenance record. It is a great concern of mine in respects to my other contract **. I was going to cancel this new policy due to worries I had in this respect.
My father has for the last 50 yrs or so actually installed and maintained A/C, Heating, and electric and even some plumbing systems and has maintained all these years. I'm worried that if they need repairs or even replacement that they would be denied as my father has never kept such records. It is not a question of him no longer maintaining said equipment but one of age. He is now over 100 years old and I don't want him to have to do repairs himself. Lewis insisted there was nothing to worry about that records were really only requested when the contract is fairly new.
At this time I see no need to call in any claims as everything is currently working fine. So after all these discussions I agreed to not cancel the contract. I will be extremely upset, if when your services may be needed for that contract that it will be denied due to lack of said records. Either was both of the people I spoke to today were friendly, patient and seemed to be very knowledgeable concerning the questions I had.

The representative from Choice Home Warranty was very professional but personable. He thoroughly explained to me how the warranty works regarding service calls and the monthly charge for the warranty. He was very considerate of my time and agreed to call me back later that day to finish our conversation as I had a doctor's appointment I needed to go to and did not have time to finish our conversation. I especially appreciated that he was not high pressure. He was honest and gave me your rates and left it up to me. I have told several friends about Choice Home Warranty and several have asked for your number.

I have 27 contracts with Choice Warranty, every time I file a claim they find a reason to deny the claim. A/C unit is too old, water heater has a rust spot, etc. I am paying thousands a year for their service and after I pay the service call I am denied any repairs, I then have to go and pay for repairs myself. So I pay for the contract, pay for the service call then I have to go pay for the repairs myself. This company is a total SCAM and I will cancel all of my contract with them this week.
Updated on 07/11/2018: Choice Home Warranty once again turned down a a/c repair, they claim my unit has a rust spot on it. They are HORRIBLE. They pay for NOTHING and cover NOTHING. Here is the letter they sent to me so they can not dispute what I am saying; "This letter is in reference to your Air Conditioning claim. We have been processing your claim for coverage and a determination has been reached. During the coverage period, our sole responsibility will be to arrange for a qualified service contractor to repair or replace, at our expense, the systems and components mentioned as "Included" in accordance with the terms and conditions of your contract so long as such systems and components:
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. Your claim was submitted on 07/09/18 and was assigned to Arrowhead AC on 07/09/18. After the appointment date on 07/11/18 the technician submitted details pertaining to your system failure.
It has determined the cause of failure of your system is with the evaporator coil, which is leaking refrigerant and must be replaced. Evaporator coils that leak have been exposed to corrosion or acidic materials that have infiltrated the air stream and air flow throughout the house and have damaged the integrity of the coil. The acidic agents cause sections of the coil to become corroded and/or rusted which are weakened and develop tiny pinhole or microscopic leak. Please refer to your terms and conditions section F number 1; we are not responsible for malfunction or improper operation due to rust or corrosion of all systems and appliances."

The prior home warranty company, American Shield contacted Meyagie's Services (817) 849-2066 & they changed out the A/C unit with a brand new unit. Aug. of 2017 I also have photos of the Meyagie repair guys on site working that had replaced it prior. The unit began having problems again of not cooling. I turned in a claim with Choice Home Warranty since I was now contracted with them.
They sent a company out to see the issue (I don't recall the name of that company though but I am sure Choice would have it on record) and I was told by the two repair estimate guys that came that Choice would not cover it due to rust and the guys who came out stated they could take care of it for me just to help me out if I paid $1500. cash directly to them and they would do it on the side (sounds crooked to me). I contacted Choice and they asked that I fax them the repair from Meyagie of Aug 2017 in which I did Nov 2017. I have not heard from Choice to date and it's Jan 27 2017. I sent them another email.

Discovered yesterday that my hot water was leaking from the bottom into the overflow pan and thru the drain tube and on the floor. Called your office at 6am for a service call and received an email explaining that you do not cover corrosion! I feel that I have been represented. The sales person told me all of the appliances that you cover and your contract clearly states on page 3 you cover hot water tanks but makes no mention of reading the rest about exclusions. It was also my understanding that at purchase I was buying the best plan you have, but try to use it for the first time and no coverage! Please stop my payment plan this month. BTW I work in the plumbing department at Home Depot. I will be sure to tell all of my hot water tank customers as to how you mislead the consumers.

The first repair company did not show up or call me to let me know they weren’t coming. You then waived the service fee as a courtesy and set me up with another service company. Dishwasher was repaired by a “mom and pop company”, not very professional looking service people and no uniform shirts. I have no idea if they did a good job or not since dishwasher motor doesn’t sound like it’s working properly now. Don’t know if they put a new motor in or a refurbished one. New motor should not go bad so quickly.

We've had 2 problems since being with this company. The 1st problem... leaky hot water tank. Took 3 days till someone came and if I hadn't called CHOICE back on day #3 (night before Thanksgiving) to get a special other phone # of repair company, Turns out-they had forgotten about us/the repair, it would have been several more days till the repair was made. Last week we lost our home heater. Choice got someone assigned immediately, but it took them 3 days to get to us (in the dead of winter). I spoke to the repair tech (the day the claim was assigned) and until the repair was made, he said/we suggested to heat our home by boiling pots of water on the stove. Thanks to the tech, our home was warm and cozy until the repair was made.

Our heating went out on Jan 1 this year. Temps were at an all time low for us... teens and below. We reported outage and waited. After waiting 55 hours we called and were told we could call our own provider as no one had picked up the ticket. They explained reimbursement process. Turns out it only cost $220 for repair (combustion motor). Wait time for auth was horrible. Our technician could not wait for the 40 plus mins it took to get a person. I explained and was directed back to another dept. She emailed me forms which I then faxed in. I faxed papers several times due to one form they kept saying was cut off. I called Fri 19th to be sure they had gotten a clear copy. Rep told me they would contact me if there were any more problems.
On Sun morning when I checked email, there was one saying that after repeated attempts to contact me were unsuccessful they were closing the claim! (I still have email.) When I called rep said they could not process claim because they had not talked to a technician. I explained what happened, asked would they compensate the technician for his time to call them again and was told no. I'm ashamed to say I did lose my temper. I was so frustrated that there was no way found to resolve my situation. Also the rep told me I just wasnt hearing what I wanted to.
Keep in mind I have worked in retail mgmt for 30 years... I know there is always a way to help a customer who has had a verifiable situation that doesnt fall under "the rules". I'm just thankful the technician was honest and didnt gouge me in my emergency. I paid for 4 years upfront for this coverage almost 3 years ago and this is the only claim I've had except for a washing machine repair last fall. VERY disappointed. I originally sang their praises after my 1st experience, but now know it's not always so. I'm not sure how long they thought we should go without heat, but I think we were reasonable. (We bought and borrowed electric heaters... which scare me). Three days was rough. Dont think I will be renewing my contract with this company.

This company is a total ripoff. I just put out 5800.00 on a new HVAC and they wanted to give us 200.00 as they said they do not pay for rust and corrosion or leaks. I asked what older system doesn’t get rust. The HVAC technician that installed our new HVAC stated that our old system was well-maintained, but Choice tried to say our system was not maintained and that is why it was leaking. Do not learn the hard way like we did. DO NOT take out a Home Warranty from this company. They will just take your money. There is also a Facebook page titled, Choice Home Warranty Ripoff, making people aware of what a ripoff they are. Awful comments - I wish we would have seen this page before we threw our money away.

I've had Choice Home Warranty for over a year or so. I've had only two claims and both were not covered under the warranty. Just recently I had a problem with my refrigerator. It took 3 days for a technician to come out to inspect the problem. He indicated to me that I had a bad compressor. He reported back to Choice that I had something installed wrong and that caused the compressor to go back. This was never indicated to me and was surprised to hear this from the Choice customer service representative. I will be researching to find me another home warranty protection plan that I can depend on and one that will give me honest workmanship from their contractors.

After 3 e-mails, Choice Home Warranty resolved the issue with the offer of a $500 payment toward the new water heater. I very much appreciated their willingness to do this since I realize it was an uncovered repair.

I sent this to Choice Home Warranty re: Uncovered replacement of water heater. I am requesting some token reimbursement for our expense since they were unable to supply their own technician to do the work at a more reasonable price than we had to pay a private contractor. I filed a claim online 1/18/2018 for leaking water heater and received a return email from you stating you were unable to locate a tech to do the repair in a timely manner. You authorized us to get our own repairman which we managed to do. He contacted you with the information and he understood that you would reimburse me for the repair, and proceeded to fix the problem.
I was then informed by you that this repair/replacement was excluded under warranty terms and that I would not get reimbursement. You also told me that if I had used YOUR technician (you didn't have one), that they would have given us special pricing on the repair even though it was uncovered. I am requesting that you pay us the difference between the price YOUR tech would have charged and the amount we wound up paying our own man since you were unable to help us per the contract agreement by supplying the repair technician. Please advise. We have been customers for many years and I just renewed my contract last week again. I am hoping you will take this into consideration and help us out with some form of reimbursement.

Choice Home Warranty is in violation of CAN SPAM laws. They send their emails under different addresses/aliases each time, and do not honor unsubscribes. I receive at least two emails per day from this poor excuse for a company, none of which are relevant to me. I have unsubscribed many times and continue to receive them.

Stay away from Choice Home Warranty!!! I'm a Real Estate broker that got a Choice Home Warranty for my own home. What a mistake. I put a claim in on my washing machine. A tech came out to check out the washer 3 days later. He told me before he could fix the washer he needed Choice Home Warranty approval to get parts to make the repair and that he would be back the next day. The repair tech never returned so I called him up. He told me Choice home Warranty denied the claim to repair. I called Choice Home Warranty and got the runaround. Finally I got someone that would talk to me. I was told since the washer was only 2 year old we must have overloaded the washer and that it was not normal wear and tear and therefore not under warranty.
We never overloaded the washer. It's just my wife and myself. We don't have big loads. So I called the tech and asked him why he thought we were overloading the washer. He told me that he put in his report that it was normal wear and tear and Choice Home Warranty made the decision that we were overloading the washer and that void out the warranty. So I called Choice Home Warranty back and got a supervisor. After some choice word with the supervisor he offer to pay 50% of the repair. I told him that would not do. Parts were about $225 plus labor. (Just going to get a new machine.)
Well my contract with Choice Home Warranty expires in about 6 weeks and their sales office has been calling me about renewing the warranty. Sorry I don't think that's going to happen nor will I ever refer them to any of my clients and I will pass this info on to all my agents and other realtors. A lost to Choice Home Warranty a lot more than $225. To all that have been rip off by Choice Home Warranty please reach out to your realtor and let them know about your experience so that they will not refer any more of their client to Choice Homes Warranty. Realtors reach out to Choice Home Warranty and let them know that we will not stand for our clients being ripped off.

In late October of 2017, Choice Home Warranty denied a claim on a 13 year old AC compressor because failure was deemed "not normal wear and tear" as per their disclaimer. Have had their Warranty product since March and at the time of this writing I still have it. The fact is, an electrically-shorted, hermetically sealed Trane Compressor cannot be diagnosed for failure type unless it is cut open and examined for root cause of the electrical failure. Technicians from two different HVAC companies have verified and agree with the aforementioned statement. Choice cannot and will not provide, in writing, the type of compressor failures which are considered "normal" wear and tear because this will obviate their ability to dismiss ALL claims due to the "normal" wear and tear clause.
I purchased their product because, according to their marketing/advertising materials, it is supposed to provide "peace of mind". It has done anything but. I now have to cut open the compressor and determine root cause of the failure and document such, get signed statements from the two technicians, file complaints with the BBB and the NC Attorney General's Consumer Affairs/Fraud Division and submit my "evidence" to Choice for their determination yet again. In the meantime, I have spent $1350 to replace the compressor and get the system running again. I would give them ZERO stars but the rating system doesn't allow for it.

On October 30th, 2017, I called Choice Home Warranty because my heater was not working. I was scheduled for an appointment for Tuesday October 31st, 2017. My claim number is #**. The heater contractor Cedric ** came to my home on Tuesday October 31st at 5:00 p.m. and looked at my boiler and said that there was nothing wrong with my boiler area but I needed an electrician. I scheduled an appointment on Wednesday morning November 1st for an electrician to come out to my home, my claim number is #**. I called the electrician J. Morgan Contractors and he said he could come out on Wednesday at 1:30 but came at 5:00. When he got there he worked on my boiler for approximately 2 hours, he went to the store and bought 2 transformers and came back and started fixing on it again.
After he got frustrated because the transformers he purchased burned out, he said he had to call the company because what he needed to do was not in his contract and that they were not paying him enough money for what he had to do. He left my house with all the wires hanging and open and the boiler apart never stating that he will be back to complete the job. I called Choice Home Warranty and talked to Latasha and she stated for me to call a manager the next day. I talked to a manager on Thursday, 11/2/2017, Charmine she said that the electrician J. Morgan Contractors will be out to put my boiler back together on Friday. I waited all that day Friday for J. Morgan Contractors to call me back and he never called so I called the company back at 4:00, and talked to another Manager Gregg. Gregg got J. Morgan Contractors on the phone he stated that he will return to my house at 5:00 p.m.
When he returned to my house I thought he put all my wires back together but he didn't. I called another boiler company (Polar), spoke with Jerry and he scheduled for Saturday from 12:00 to 3:00. A contractor came out and looked at my boiler and stated that the people who worked on your boiler did not put all the wires back together and they did not want to touch my boiler or be responsible for what Choice Home Warranty started. They suggested that we call the people who installed the boiler to complete the job.

My furnace went out one week after I moved into my home. Over one month later, my children and I are still without heat. Choice Home Warranty sent two techs out that did not even service the type of furnace that I have. One tried to do something to it and left. Finally someone capable came to fix it, but two days later, the furnace quit again. There was a part leaking oil, so the tech stated that due to the leak and the age of the furnace, he recommended replacement... First, Choice Warranty tried to claim that the leak was at the storage tank so it was not covered. I told them that didn't even make sense, because my storage tank is outside, and the leak is under my house - at the furnace.
Then, they claimed it was the lines coming from the storage tank, and since storage tanks aren't covered, it still isn't covered. The name of the person who supposedly told them that didn't even match anyone working at the HVAC company. The tech called back again and told them that they needed to stop jerking us around and again explained that the leak is at the furnace. Now they are denying the claim because there is hazardous material involved which excludes it from coverage. Any oil or gas furnace involves hazardous materials, so they could use that excuse to get out of paying for most furnaces.

The only thing I can say good about Choice Warranty is that the salesperson who convinced me to drop AHS and switch to Choice was brilliant. She sold me so well that my sister in DC switched also. She has better sense than I do, she has switched back to AHS. Each claim we have submitted has been a struggle. Even emergency are not responded to timely. I had a toilet overflowing and was asked to wait 2 days for a repair person. I ended up hiring a company to come out that day to perform the repairs. I have an electrical issue in my daughter's room. We were told that Choice would pay for the part that was inside the ceiling but they would not pay for the work it took to get to that part nor would they pay for the replacing the parts damaged to get to the covered part.
In September, I submitted a claim regarding my ceiling fan. No one called me to say anything. When I checked the status it said to call for more details. I was told that Choice would not cover a light bulb. I told your representative that if it was the light bulb, I certainly would not need to pay a surcharge for a $5 bulb. When I have a problem with the faucet in the kitchen, I ended up paying the guy $260 to replace it. He said that Choice didn't cover the cost of the new faucet. This policy is really a joke. It really doesn't matter that your company charges less than AHS if every claim I submit is denied.

Luke ** was the salesman who spoke to me over the phone and convinced me to get the 3 yr. pkg. He's a very good salesman; my realtor had recommended your company also has the 3 yr. package and raved about what good service she got when her washing machine broke and 'Choice' replaced it with a brand new machine.

I just signed up for Choice Home Warranty, so I can't really comment on all areas of their customer service just yet. However, I will say that the process of establishing this service was extremely easy and quick. The representative helping me was friendly and very helpful. Based on my experience so far, I will definitely recommend Choice Home Warranty.

Choice Home Warranty does not have anyone who can fix my garage door or refrigerator, rather, Choice Home Warranty wants me to find someone myself, pay for it myself, and then submit a claim form and wait for reimbursement. Choice Home Warranty did not have a problem selling me a warranty, but they have a problem finding technicians.

Don't purchase a policy from this company. They have not covered any claims that have been submitted. One claim, my dishwasher, they gave me $165.00 to replace my dishwasher, without an option to have it repaired. This company is a rip-off. If you are looking for a home warranty company, use a different company. I know three people that also have home warranty policies, and their claims are all paid.

I have contact with Choice Warranty. My cooktop could not be fix. The ofter to give me 300.00 dollars. Parts were not available. Found a new cooktop for 1731.00 at appliance store in Huntsville, AL. They said they would noted anything but give me the money, I said, "Send me the check so I could get on with my cooktop." They said it would be 30 days or more before they could proceed with the check. They would not replace my cooktop. Think their warranty is worth the paper it is written on.

Be sure to read the fine print because they basically don't cover anything. Of the 5-6 claims I filed, only 1 was covered. I wasted money and they didn't fix anything, just took my money for the service calls only to tell me that what I needed done wasn't covered. If interested in more, my A/C repairman even said that is was fraud the way they sold me on their coverage yet wouldn't cover anything.

I was annoyed by the phone in service for claims, since I got the "unusual incoming number of calls and long wait". If that is the case they should retain additional service call operators, however, they do direct you to the website to place a claim. This was easy to do and straightforward. The website has a "view status of claim" hyperlink that you can follow its processing status. I have yet to see how fast the processing is carried out since my request is loss of refrigerator.

Scheduling service request thru online was very simple and took less than 2 minutes. Received acknowledge email almost immediately and service appointment was scheduled within a day.

My dryer stopped working on 12/30, so I placed a claim with CHW. They assigned the claim to a company that was supposed to arrive between 3:00 and 8:00 pm. They arrived at 8:15 pm. The technician did no troubleshooting, but said I needed a new connection for the dryer to the gas line. He proceeded to ask me if I wanted to go with him to Walmart to get the parts. Then wanted to know where my husband was (I live alone). After not fixing the original problem, he left saying the dryer was working fine. A day later, it stopped again because it had never been fixed.
I called CHW, told them it wasn't fixed and that I didn't want the original person to come out because he was inappropriate. They reassigned the claim to a ghost company (no presence online, not even Google) who no-called, no-showed times. I had to take off work and had received email confirmation for all 3 appointments. So CHW reassigned my claim yet again. It has been almost 2 weeks since I've had a working dryer, and I still don't have a solution. This has been a waste of my time, energy, and money. I will be switching warranty companies when my contract expires. This is the worst customer service I have ever received.

Today when the repairman came, he explained Choice would order the parts and I would have to reschedule an appointment to repair my dryer. I could be a week without my dryer. I do laundry for my brother in a nursing home, so now I will have To go to a laundry. This summer I called Choice Warranty because my air conditioner stop working during the night. I had to cancel my order due to the fact it would be three days before a repairman would be here. Now I realize it would been longer if parts had to be ordered. Due to my Mom's health I had to call a repairman myself and pay full price. Not sure what good Choice Warranty is. I would not recommend them to anyone. I'm going to cancel as soon as my contract expires. Very disappointed!

After both of us getting hung up on numerous times after being put on hold an hour later he was able to speak with someone who could not grant anything to be covered because they needed a home inspection report but did not provide me with any info on who or what fax number I am supposed to send it to.
