This was my first time using Choice Home Warranty. The compressor in my AC unit stopped working... July in Texas. We submitted our work request on Sunday afternoon at about 4:30 PM and by 1:00 PM on Monday the problem was fixed. Technician had to replace two parts and I only paid my service fee. Very Happy.

We have had Choice Home Warranty for five years. Used them twice before. Now though they won't honor our claim. Saying that we didn't do proper maintenance to our air conditioner... WRONG!!! I immediately called the service technician back and he told me what he told them and immediately tried to call them back as well!!! We were both blocked and they will not take our calls!!! I am furious with this company and can't even reach someone in their consumer advocate office either!!! So I am totally ready to go to court. This is awful!!! How can you not be responsible for part of an air conditioner when the book says they cover air conditioners???

Returning from a trip to Cancun Mexico, I walked into a blazing hot inferno in my house. The outside temp was in low 90s. The house temp was low 100s. The air conditioning system was blowing hot air, I after suffering through a day of this I call Choice. The process was quick and easy, I received a phone call from the company assigned to my issue. They were able to come by that day. Checked the system and found the issue (conductor was broken) they fixed it and within 20 mins the house began to cool. They gave me some maintenance tips since my cooling system is rather old to help prolong the life of the air conditioning system. In short, they did a fast and thorough job. I was so happy to have changed my home warranty provider to Choice, it was one of the best moves I've made. I would highly recommend Choice to both friends and family.

Worst company ever! I paid upfront for 5 years and when I filed a claim for my ac not working it was denied!! The tech they sent out stated it was normal wear and tear but Choice Home Warranty said it wasn't so denied, that's it. They said they are not covering it! Their own tech said he wasn't surprised because they deny every claim and are the worst warranty company around. They have many complaints with the BBB (over 2,900!) and a class action lawsuit was filed in New Jersey because of their illegal practices as well. Buyer beware! RIPOFF!!

A little over a year ago I tried to get service from this worthless company and finally found someone and paid for it myself. I tried to cancel it then and was talked into giving them another chance. Stupid on my part. Today I turned in an Air Conditioner problem and they said it wasn't covered because I described it as a leak. Then I was told the cancellation department was closed today. I doubt that I will ever see a penny from this bunch of crooks but I am going to try to cancel and get my money back tomorrow. I will advise on how that goes as well.
UPDATED ON 07/12/2017: After waiting on hold for 25 minutes "Sam" answered my call and told me the service I received Monday was unacceptable and said he would re-imburse my expenses. And wouldn't let me cancel my warranty. He said he would e-mail me and I should receive a check in 2 weeks. I will add comments at the end of the 2 weeks to say whether I received payment or not.

We bought our home in May and had it inspected. The dishwasher was one of the appliances tested and it worked fine. A couple of months later, the dishwasher started smoking at the control panel. I called in a claim. The dishwasher still works, but it smokes really bad so the power has been turned off to the unit. Choice Home Warranty declined the claim stating that they don't cover damage due to "fire." I'm trying to cancel my account, but have been put on hold and can't seem to get through to a rep in the cancellation department.

I called CHW because my water heater started to leak on Friday afternoon. They sent down a technician to verify the claim. When I called them on Monday morning, they said we were not covered. They claimed that the water heater tank is not covered! How can a warranty of a water heater not cover the tank? I feel that CHW is a fraudulent company that claims to warranty your appliances and when a claim is made, they find a reason to disqualify your claim. I will never renew my contract and never recommend them to anyone. The more people I spoke to about this, the more I learned that CHW is a fraud. My friend had the same experience as I did. Any other home warranty company would have honored this claim. They are a big fraud. It will cost me $1500 to replace the hot water heater, and they claim it is not covered! The plumber will replace it today, and I can send in a photo of the bill later on today.

Choice Home Warranty has turned out to be a scam. Very deceptive practice. It was fine for small plumbing needs but whenever time came for something bigger Choice Warranty has always backed off. When they refused to cover for my central air conditioner unit issue, I lost it seeing their deceptive practice. According to their contract, my AC unit should have been covered. When the AC unit stopped cooling my house and I called Choice Warranty, they dispatched HVAC service guys who came and we found out that the AC unit was tripping, initially the HVAC guys thought it was the capacitors so they ordered new ones, week later when they came back and installed it, the AC unit was still tripping so capacitor issue was ruled out, then after further troubleshooting and ruling out other issues when they disconnected the compressor the AC unit was no longer tripping and the fan was running fine so it clearly indicated the issue was with the compressor.
The HVAC guys determined that the AC unit would need to be replaced and were confident that Choice Home Warranty should cover that, but to my surprise when I called Choice Warranty back the next day, they tell me straight up that sorry warranty won't cover it and I will have to pay to replace the AC unit out of my own pocket! I wish I would have done my homework researching Choice Warranty before signing up with them. Now that I'm reading more into them, I'm finding out through many social media sites, review sites, news media coverage that Choice Home Warranty is known for such deceptive practices. And from reading other places, I'm pretty sure now as I will fight this they will come up one of the following three excuses as an easy way for them to escape out of their responsibility.
Either I'll be told that it was a pre-existing condition, or it was due to lack of maintenance on my side, or simply because they do not cover the specific issue I had due to some hidden little clause. And I know none of these applies to me but from reading others experience this is how I expect for them to respond. Can you imagine how much money they are making off of people everyday signing up with them? Only later majority of folks not being honored? I will not just give up this time. I will report this deceptive practice of theirs to all social media sites, BBB, including reporting them to State Department of Insurance as well as the news media. This unfair deceptive practice must stop.

Purchased home warranty on 5/23/17. Was told that warranty was refundable and prorated. Was NOT told about a cancellation fee. Closed on house on 7/6/17 and received a warranty with closing, so called to cancel Choice. Even though Choice knew that I would not own the house until closing, they still charged me a cancellation fee and one month prorate on a house I didn't even own yet. Sales rep was not forthcoming on this information. I was told the warranty would not start until closing... WRONG! In essence, it cost me about $300 for a one month home warranty on a house I didn't even own! Buyer beware!

When getting insurance, check the exclusions. I paid for water pump which is extra. Check the exclusions. They lied. It only covers the pump not the parts of the system. Or labor of pulling or reinstalling the unit, or the pressure tank or pressure switch or anything else. I had to read it after they sold me the policy. As far as I'm concerned they are guilty of fraud by deception. I think the US ATTORNEY GENERAL should check into their business practices.

Choice Home Warranty has denied 4 of my claims; all items that show on their website as "covered". Refrigerator is covered, but not the ice maker (read the fine print). Plumbing is covered, but not toilets, faucets, or anything that leaks outside the wall. AC is covered, but not the Expansion Valve (which is inside air handler and costs $500 - $2300 depending on freon). AC coil leak is covered, but not the leak detection test (fine print again), but when I had the leak located by the Tech Choice sent out they will not approve the repair because the evidence is insufficient. But the tech refuses to come back a third time to provide the needed pictures and Choice refuses to send another tech. So, my air has been broken for over 4 weeks and there is nothing I can do to get it fixed.
Today they recommended that I call my own tech and pay for the diagnosis myself and then send them the information. After that they will "tell me where we are at" with the repair. They take no responsibility for their "certified" tech and will not reimburse the cost of the second tech or approve the coil repair. I call Cool Blue and Effertz Air in Phoenix and they say that Choice never approves repairs greater than $200, so they no longer do business with the company; TOTAL SCAM!

Don't ever buy this warranty! Go with American Shield. Decided to go with this company because of roof protection, worse decision ever made!!! Having ac problems. Got their tech out. Ac was working before he came but was tripping breaker. Called for service. After the tech came out ac doesn't work at all now! They are denying claim saying it's a maintenance issue. Even got a second opinion and they are still refusing to pay. The new company agrees it is clearing not a maintenance issue. Company denied claim again. Then they dispatch their original tech back out who finished off totally breaking ac unit. They also emailed an reimbursement form, and now they are claiming it's a mistake. And the tech dispatching for the second time is a mistake as well. The company is like a three ring circus act! Taking them to court! They offered a partial refund of 346.00 from 576.00 that I paid.

Once Choice confirmed that the breakdown was within the warranty timeline, they promptly scheduled a service technician to come out and fix the washer that was just about seven months old but out of the 90-day warranty! He ordered the broken part and scheduled to come back in two weeks. Of particular note is that Choice called me to check on the progress report to make sure not only the work was done, but that I was satisfied with it. When they called, the technician was to yet come to complete the work. The schedule he gave had elapsed two days! Choice promptly called them and the technician came back within 2 days to get the work done. If this is the norm, then I say a big KUDOS to Choice! If not the norm, then why not?

I am dissatisfied with this company's protocol. I recently purchased a home, I have no idea of how the original owners took care of things. However I needed to make this house my home. So with that mindset I purchased regular house insurance and additional insurance because I wanted to stay on track and have no unexpected costly repairs forced upon me. "We believe Choice Home Warranty home warranties are the most comprehensive, flexible and value-priced on the market. We do everything we can to help you get back on track - that's the difference." Above is their mission statement, which is 100% inaccurate.
My issue with this company is they advertise the age and condition of the item is null and void, yet when there's an issue age and condition is the deciding factor. This is a scam, I can't provide maintenance issues nor do I know of any known or unknown conditions when purchasing a home. Per my inspection report everything checked out. This should be bold and advertise on the site. You don't cover aged units such as and it is probably best to go through you guys, for a fee, to set up an inspection on known troublesome mechanical items.
Now my experience: I purchased a house in April of 2017, AC was working and per my inspection report everything checked out. Around May and June the unit slowed down a lot. Come to find out after having a technician look at it, it needed a 250V condenser contactor, replacement of 2 core valves, vacuum the system, and a lot of R22. Initially when I purchased I explained this is why I needed the coverage for unexpected repairs like this.
Don't let these representatives lie to you, nor let this company fool you. They deemed these items as not normal wear and tear and denied my claim. So me still paying monthly, had to dish out $450 to repair these items. AC was cranking now, but I'm out of $450. Then on July 2th my compressor goes down. I call and again not normal wear and tear. I explain to them this is why I got the coverage and their response is, "According to this article F (make sure before saying yes you read article F)." They don't mention this when you enroll.
So now my 3 year old daughter, 6 year old son, and 6 months pregnant wife are forced to endure a hot house because we were misled upon enrolling with this company. These statements right here, "We don't cover known or unknown" and "We only cover repairs on regularly maintained items." Think about that before you decide to go with these crooks when buying a house.

Purchased the Choice Home Warranty several months ago as our appliances were reaching the 5-10 year age. Our dishwasher would not drain and we were contacted by one of Choice's preferred vendors for repair. They were promptly on time when they said they would be there and as soon as the problem was assessed they contacted Choice to get the approval for the parts and labor and received immediate approval and parts were ordered the same day. The parts and labor were inexpensive but saved us from paying a much higher price for the repair or buying a new dishwasher at a much higher cost. Although it is the first time we have used the service it so far is worth every penny to have the ease of mind of working with a quality honest company that does what they say and say what they mean.

I had been with First choice Warranty and decided to switch to Choice Home Warranty because of the rates. I cancelled First Choice and the contract expired June 29, 2017. Choice Warranty became effective June 30, 2017. My pool guy (who comes weekly) came on June 30th and informed me that the spa wasn't staying on. I went to call First Choice but realized Choice warranty was effective. I called Choice warranty. They sent someone out. I paid the 60.00 and the report came back stating this is preexisting. How do you determine it was pre-existing.
I explained to them that I had never had issue and there had been a 30 day waiting period to even begin services. First Choice warranty offers pool services and if there was an issue prior I could easily contact them. They refused to pay the claim and talked to me in an unprofessional way (basically called me a liar) so I cancelled my contract and they refused to pay me back the 60.00. If they felt it was preexisting then WHY would they send someone out? If my plan is effective on June 30th then they should say that we have to wait another month to file a claim. I am going back to First warranty. The report from the pool services clearly states normal usage.

He called me after few days and I was told that they denied the claim. I called the Choice warranty, they told me it's an existing issue. They can't do it. THAT IS THE WORST CO TO WORK WITH.

Have had this home warranty for 1 1/2 years. Each year our old AC needed Freon. The only good thing about them is a service provider usually can fix a problem within 24 hours. AC kept leaking Freon. We had that filled each spring. Had new leak in ceiling onto wood floors. We told them it wasn't a plumbing problem but AC. They said they did not cover any of the possible reasons for the leak. Due to disability reasons my husband and I are unable to climb into the attic. We had to call an independent service company. They said the coils were rusted, pan had water and leak and this had been a problem for quite some time, clogged drain, AC unit itself was dirty.
Now their previous service people who had just been in attic and putting Freon in May never said a word or offer a cleaning at additional charge. Now we have to change whole HVAC system. Since everything will now be new we called to cancel and they told us there would be no refund on the 2 remaining years. We paid over $1100 for 3.5 years coverage. The senior person was rude and kept talking over both hubby and myself. She would not listen to anything we were trying to say and kept saying she was trying to help us. A total waste waste of money.

Worst decision ever! I bought 3 year contract with them and every time a technician comes in they collect the 45 deductible and say the warranty company do not cover this. They did send me one check for $200 for microwave and $150 for my sprinkler. My AC was not covered. It was due to lighting. Thank God for my insurance company (AMERICAN RISK) they covered the AC. When I called to cancel they said "you paid 1050 for 3 year, your refund is $102. Because we paid you 350 for claims and every time we send a tech to your house we pay them 75." I told them "you charge me a deductible for 45. What is that" and the response was "it's different." All their technicians say they don't cover anything and then I had to pay from my pocket to fix things and then their tech would also claim.
Garage Door. I paid the guy $45 deductible plus another $100 to fix the garage door. He said as it's not covered. The warranty people say they paid the guy $75 to fix this. Microwave. This was my first claim which was suppose to be FREE! They said they paid the guy $55 to come and fix it. Since he can't they send me check for $200 which they deduct from my premium originally paid. Sprinkler. They let me put the claim in the tech. Charged me $45 and then CHW said they never cover the sprinkler. And said we had to pay the guy $50 to come and see it. Breaker. They send me tech who charge me $45 to fix 2 breaker that cost $10 each at home depot and on top the tech told me I had to pay him cash as a tip??? The breaker went out again and their tech never picked him their phone and came back to fix it. AC. They came in to see my AC and said that the compressor is bad which is not covered. So $45 to see and another $3000 to fix this.
They charged to $45 every time a tech would come in and then CHW claims that they also pay the tech even though the check I write is for the CHW. In the end I had my policy for 6 months. Paid $1050 to buy $350 was my claims check and in the end they refunded me like $100 some odd dollar saying all the time tech came in CHW pays them. STAY AWAY!!

Choice Home Warranty denied a claim to repair or replace A/C unit last fall using the reason "improper maintenance or no maintenance performed". They came to this conclusion because the compressor ceased and stated that the only reason for this was due to improper maintenance (which is actually not true at all). First, regular annual check-up/maintenance was performed by one of the top 3 service providers in my area just 5 months earlier. The unit was 16 years old (installed in 2000) by our builder when our home was built.
After they denied with this blanket statement, they didn't even ask for proof that I had it maintenanced. I called and told them that I, personally, replaced the air filter every 3 months as required for premium filters or monthly for standard filters. I have been the only homeowner and have maintained and serviced it regularly since we moved in. When I told them that the last service date was June, they told me that it must have been for cleaning only. What? How does a company get away with making false claims about whether a customer truly maintained their unit or what a qualified service provider performed with absolutely no knowledge or facts? They told me to fax or email what service is performed when this company, RJ Groner & Co., does their annual service. I called the company and they told me a complete checklist of what they do is listed on their website, to see if I could send this to Choice.
I emailed the webpage to them. They emailed back to call them. When I called, they said that this cannot be accepted because the maintenance performed had to be listed on some sort of invoice with my unit, date, and readings recorded. I told them, this was the first time they even asked for the invoice! I told them I would scan my receipt from the HVAC company, RJ Groner, but that the actual readings from the unit was not on the invoice. Just a short description of the service, a statement that everything was working normally, full cleaning and maintenance performed, and the price paid. Choice emailed back to call them.
When I called, they said their "techs" reviewed the invoice and the claim remains denied as the readings of pressure, amperage, and specific unit details such as the model # were not recorded on the invoice. Really? Where is it written in any HVAC manual, local or State law, or in my contract with Choice that this is required??? So my proof that I properly performed regular maintenance as a homeowner was not good enough. The service/cleaning/maintenance that RJ Groner includes on their annual check-up appointments as detailed on their website and advertisements are not good enough. And even after calling back to Choice to speak with the claims representative WITH RJ Groner on the line, a licensed, bonded, and insured company who is one of the top three companies in my area who have provided A/C Heating and Plumbing service for many years... not good enough.
I asked the claims rep where was it written in our contract that the service provider or homeowner had to RECORD the readings of the unit and list the full checklist of services performed on the invoice, and she said that "This is what companies do." RJ Groner was on the line and they replied that they only list specific readings on the invoice for repair ONLY if there is a problem. When all readings are good, a blanket statement is made, maintenance and cleaning both performed, and their job is done.
They went further to state that their own technicians are required as a part of their job to see what unit they are working with so they know what refrigerant, pressure, amps, etc., they are dealing with. None of this information is recorded or saved if everything is operating within the manufacturer's specifications. However, RJ Groner would be happy to supply them with the specific readings for normal operation on the invoice if a statement were needed from them. They said that they stand by their work and that many companies do not put all of the readings on the invoice.
The Choice agent said I could send this in to them. RJ Groner typed the readings specific to my unit (they provided the minimum reading if there was a normal "range" since the actual reading was not saved). I provided the new copy via email to Choice, even though, none of this requirement or stipulation is listed anywhere in our agreement. This goes far beyond the normal, standard, and reasonable effort needed to prove that regular maintenance was performed by a qualified technician. Choice emailed back to call them. The Choice agent said they would not accept since the numbers were entered AFTER the service was performed. Again, what? They told both me and the RJ Groner employee to do this on our last call! So now, Choice won't accept the invoice without the readings or with the "normal range" readings since they were entered manually on the invoice after the fact.
They obviously didn't accept RJ Groner's professional statement or qualified opinion either... because apparently, Choice has ultimate say on what is proper maintenance and what is not. The Choice agent went further to state that if proper maintenance was performed (even though I reasonably already proved that it was), the compressor would not have ceased. Really? I am no qualified technician, but from everything I read online about ceased compressors can come from any number of reasons including 1) age, 2) overheating due to blockage, 3) faulty reverse valve on heat pumps, 4) unknown source of sudden external power surge, or 5) overheating due to maintenance not being performed.
After speaking with RJ Groner, Air Dynamics, and a Sears tech, it is certainly possible that any of the reasons above could cause a compressor to overheat and fail and any of them could have occurred several weeks or months after giving a "normal" or good readings during a maintenance. Any reputable company would stand by this and back-up their service as being true, reasonable, and in compliance with market practice and all laws and regulations. Choice simply will not make any effort to repair or replace the unit. Because the compressor failed, we were told by Air Dynamics (the company Choice sent to diagnose the unit) that the compressor could not be repaired. It overheated, ceased, and is "arching" and only a new outside unit or a total replacement of the entire system was needed.
As the homeowner, I am making a statement and am happy to provide a signed affidavit to these facts. In addition, I can also obtain professional statements from Air Dynamics, RJ Groner, and any other company needed to support the normal, market, professional process, opinion, and regulations as required by law. I maintain that Choice has committed a full breach of contract and that by making additional undue requirements and unreasonable claims, is falsely advertising that they will provide a service and "peace of mind" when they have tricks like this up their sleeves to get them out of paying claims.
If the requirement to record normal and good readings and manufacturer/model # is a requirement even if a statement that everything passes and there are no issues found, then Choice must stipulate this in the contact along with the exact readings being requested, all static information required such as who took the readings, manufacturer, refrigerant, model/serial numbers, date of install, etc., etc., and how often and how long maintenance records need to be kept for X years. I could see a homeowner being denied because the model number wasn't recorded, or they had 3 years of records, but maybe Choice wants to see 7 years of maintenance. Whatever the case, none of this is in the contract - only that the homeowner is required to perform regular maintenance. I did this.
Steer clear of this company. They are rated well for Customer Service only. I'm sure they sign up a lot of customers and when something goes wrong, look for any reason they can come up with to put the blame on the customer so they don't have to pay! I had to replace the outside unit myself, which cost me $1,300.00 labor and USED parts. I could not afford new, and since my unit uses the old refrigerant, a completely new system was needed. This would have cost me upwards of around $7-8k. No wonder Choice made up those requirements to avoid paying!
Besides this review, I am sending this to as many consumer boards, Better Business Bureau, State of Pennsylvania insurance dept, and word of mouth to as many people as I can. I don't want family and friends having to go through paying out over $500+ to them to only have to pay thousands more and NOT be covered as expected. I wouldn't wish this nightmare on anyone!

My first claim for the garbage disposal was seamless. The call to the claim center was answered within a few minutes. The representative was courteous and an email followed shortly with the contact number for the repair service. Once I called the repair service to schedule the service, they actually showed up the same day. It was determined that a new disposal was needed and the new disposal was installed the next day.

This was my first experience with Choice Warranty. I was impressed by the immediate assistance and resolution to my claim. Timeliness of service and assistance I received was exceptional compared to my previous home warranty company. I'm glad I made the switch. I wish I was aware of them from the beginning since I had home warranty coverage for a few years already. Thank you.

On-time, technician showed up for repairing the oven stove cooktop. Excellent service. Doesn't have to follow up on the appointment day or time. Response was quick and timely. Analyzed the problem and ordered the replacement or defective part immediately. Can't ask for better service.

I purchased six years policy (payment for 5 years but one year free) which is the biggest mistake I made by paying for 5 years. (I bought, 5 years policy, Of course, because of high pitched, very hot sales preaching). This company did not cover any warranty on my Home water heater, air condition repair or any other repair. Everything goes into exclusion: Their exclusion list is very long which you can read on. Basically, Choice Home Warranty did not cover anything for me. On the top, when I canceled policy, they charged me more than 50% of policy. Customer service is very poor. Technician comes from repair company had very poor knowledge about repair service.
I do not recommend anybody to buy this company policy. Never buy the 5-year policy. Pay monthly so you won't lose 3 years of money when you canceled your policy. If you want to try this company policy, try only for short period of time so you can cancel out your policy without losing too much of your money. Do not pay any money without reading every word in their policy. Asked for their written policy, before signing any papers. Do not recommend 30-days money back guarantee. May need the lawyer to interpret their policy.

On 1J a repair man came out and said my control panel was out and CHW ordered the part and we never heard from the repair man, we called and called no answer. CHW called another company on 23 of July and he came by the next Monday. He disassembled the dishwasher and ran a test only to find out the panel was good but one of the lines were blocked, he vacuumed out the line and the problem was solved.

First time to use the home warranty. I call them on a Saturday morning because my refrigerator stop working, they told me that a technician is going to call me back in 24 hours to schedule an appointment but nobody call or email me back. I end up paying another company to fix my refrigerator. And on top of that the call every day to see if I want to renew the policy even when they never help me solve my problem.

My hot water tank failed and even though the policy did not cover it, CHW gave me a courtesy credit of $100.00. The entire process was timely and friendly. And, although I was not technically covered, the $100 offset my replacement cost.

I had an issue that needed a professional electrician to evaluate and repair. The gentleman that was hired to do the job did an excellent job. He was on time, accurate in his assessment, and performed his duties very well. He assured me that his work was warranted for one full year. He wasn't pushy, aggressive, or tried to upsell any service. I am very pleased with my first Choice Experience. I hope the rest, if any, are as positive.

Technician came within few days - ordered a part needed, however, part was out of stock, took sometime but essentially they determine that the machine should be replaced. They paid the appropriate amount for the replacement of the new machine. Overall, very good experience - took a bit longer because of out of stock item but eventually it was done in perfect manner!

AC unit went out Saturday so we called for CHW for service. Customer service folks were very polite, professional and seemed genuinely concerned about issue. The HVAC provider called and explained the cost if they came out on the weekend. He said we would have to pay up front but he would get approval for work on Monday and Choice would reimburse us. My wife and I opted to wait until Monday to have the repair done. RHR the AC company was on time, diagnosed the problem and fixed it in 45 minutes. Best service from a warranty company and their contractors we have had. Glad my Dad told me and my 2 brothers to drop AHS and get Choice Home Warranty.

My AC went out and since I live in AZ I needed it fixed right away. The temperatures were climbing and inside my house was getting hotter. They sent out the order but because it was on a Sunday, no one was answering so the nice person at CHW told me I could get my own service person and CHW would reimburse me if the fix was something that they do. The work was done and my reimbursement is on its way. So very accommodating in such an awful situation. Thanks!

Clogged shower drain. The plumber was on time and knew his trade. He was able to explain WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS and do the repairs to my satisfaction.

Our A/C went out and we called to get it repaired. The mechanic came out and said the air coil inside the furnace had rusted and cracked over the years of it cooling and heating. Unfortunately Choice Home Warranty did not cover rusted components and we had to cover the cost ourselves but they did give us $300 dollars toward the cost to fix it. Overall the customer service was great but disappointed it didn't cover something that was out of our control and should have been covered since it was an internal part of the system.
