Tech analyzed problem. My concern is why it took weeks to find a tech and the delay resulted in a hardship. It required me to get assistance to provide another fridge on a temporary basis at my cost. Because of the long wait there was food spoilage. Your sales rep said you had your own service people which was not true. In any case the tech you sent analyzed and resolved the problem.

My service man was completely helpful and fixed everything that needed to be done to repair my refrigerator. He knew what was wrong with it. He had a good attitude and was done in just a few minutes. I was happy with the labour and service done by my repair man.

The last repair was for my AC unit. The first technician didn't show up for his appointment and didn't answer phone calls. But Harold (Sears Home Service) was the next technician. He stayed in touch with me and did a great job. However, the two claims I made prior to this was for toilet stoppage and a cracked bowl. I wasn't all pleased with the way those two things turned out. So, three stars was the best rating I could give.

Michael ** was friendly, professional and informative, providing us with options about the plans and the differences between plans.

To be honest my only experience with CHW was my conversation with one of the specialist, Curt over the phone when I called to find out information about this company because I want to make a change to my Home Warranty company that I’m with right now. Curt was informational about the Choice Home Warranty company. The price he quote sounds presentable to me and was less than the warranty company that I’m with.

Terrible Experience with Choice Home Warranty. I placed a claim with Choice Home Warranty for an electrical issue, and the technician they sent out told me it was due to wear and tear. However, later, I received a call from the company stating it was a broken breaker. The technician never mentioned a broken breaker; he specifically said it was wear and tear. This company is a scam! Before you purchase coverage with Choice Home Warranty, be aware that they are just scammers. They will take your money and fight tooth and nail to avoid paying for any broken items or issues in your house. Save yourself the trouble and don’t buy their coverage. This has been my unfortunate experience with them.

I would recommend Choice Home Warranty but only for certain people, the lack of human interaction when submitting a claim and the claim process is very difficult to understand what is happening and when you will be taken care of. You just receive email contact which doesn’t really help or give you an accurate understanding of what is happening with your claim.

This company is a sham. They do not cover all the things that they claim to cover and certainly not a good grade of replacement items. The customer service options are horrible, and they force you to code in your phone number for a call back. A person calls back from a home or call center, asks questions, repeats the same things over and over as if they're going to help you. Then they tell you that they'll transfer you to a claims specialist and when they do, the same menu comes up with the same directives.
After submitting a claim via online, with my claim number, I get a call this morning from a smart-mouth so-called claims specialist who was crass, degrading, rude, and disrespectful. She told me in no uncertain terms that they will not replace my nonfunctioning ceiling fan with a comparable model and style, but a builder's grade cheap model that only sells for $70 - my fan is $325. BLONDELL is her name and she was very nasty - horrible. My earnest suggestion is that you steer clear of Choice Home Warranty - they are a sheer and complete SHAM.

Difficult company to work with. We filed a claim on our 20+ year old hvac system which was inspected before the house was bought and they denied the claim saying that they were improperly installed although they have been with the house since construction and were the same units that were deemed in normal working condition when we purchased the house less than a year ago. Now Choice wants to deny the claim even though they have run for a good 20+ years before perfectly fine and had no known issues.
The associates that work there are also the worst customer service I have ever experienced. Shauntel M. Was incredibly rude and just yelled over our whole phone conversation while I was trying to explain that these units that they claim were improperly installed are the same ones that we had inspected and they warrantied when we purchased the house. She yelled, "Well they ain’t working now are they!" And told me she was the be all end all of our claim and they wouldn’t assist us anymore with this. Considering the contact says no known defects or preexisting conditions I would say we should have gotten the repair but they won’t even discuss it with you besides being rude and over talking you. This company is a waste of money and it looks like they were asked to stop selling their contracts in Georgia because they didn’t have enough bond for the claims being submitted. All around I would avoid this company. They are sketchy.

This is my first claim, and I am starting to regret switching from AHS to Choice. The contractor who came to my home was extremely impolite and seemed primarily concerned with charging the service fee. He didn’t diagnose the cause of my problem and said he couldn’t do anything if the problem didn’t occur in front of him. I had to beg him for feedback, and when I asked about the next steps, he only said he would notify Choice, and they would decide what to do. After he left in a hurry, the problem happened again, so I recorded a video to send to him. When I called to ask if he was interested in receiving the video, he showed no interest. I sent him the video, but he didn’t reply. I am very disappointed. With my previous insurance company, AHS, the contractors were at least polite and attentive.

DO NOT BUY!! We bought this home warranty after reading some reviews online. All I can say is they must have been bought and paid for reviews. I spent THOUSANDS on this warranty to "cover" my home for 6 years. They literally cover NOTHING! They claim they will when you buy it. But when you make a claim, as I have made several, they find any abominable reasons not to cover it. We paid extra to cover our pool, and our hot tub. Made a claim, they had no technicians that wanted to do the repair for Choice rates. So No one would accept the ticket to do the repairs. So I ended up doing them myself. My washer broke, needed bearings, they wouldn't cover it because we must have abused it, or overloaded it for the bearings to go bad. My AC went out. Nope. Wouldn't cover it either. DO NOT BUY. Find a company more reputable if you must have a home warranty. Choice is a scam. Save your money.

Choice is great, until they're not. I gave them $2,500. I recently filed a claim for a dripping bathroom faucet, paid my "co-pay" to the plumber when he showed up, then Choice wouldn't pay to fix it. Now, I'm out $60 and STILL have a dripping faucet. The first couple of years, Choice was okay. But once you reach a certain number of claims, or once the repairs go beyond what you gave them up front (in my case, $2,500) they start denying even low cost repairs after that. Such as replacing a $30 faucet. If they won't replace a $30 faucet then don't expect then to replace a major appliance that goes bad and can't be fixed. They'll come up with any excuse they can pull to avoid paying out. That's apparently Choice's business model.
I also have a jacuzzi bathtub in my master bathroom that the jets stopped working. Filed a claim the same day as the dripping faucet incident. Same plumber. Same trip. He would have to saw through my sheetrock to get to the motor. But after Choice denied replacing a $30 faucet, there was no way I was going to have him cut a hole in my wall, then have Choice deny repairing that too. I would've been out another $60, a hole in my wall, and STILL be left with a jacuzzi tub that doesn't work. Then, to add insult to injury, Choice had the gall to call me on the same day they denied my dripping faucet claim to ask if I would like to sign up for another $2,500! Seriously??? A co-worker of mine, just by coincidence, asked me later that day if I had any recommendations for a home warranty company because he was looking for one. I told him, "Yeah. I have a recommendation. I recommend you DON'T get Choice Home Warranty!"

Our claim for the replacement of a failed AC unit was denied by CHW based on a loophole in the contract language. The failure of the unit is age-related (originally installed in 2005) and not due to any subsequent leaks of refrigerant and any water damage. In my opinion, CHW used the determination of a CHW-designated contractor to deny our claim. I was offered the opportunity to appeal the decision. I chose to be proactive with a different vendor rather than endure the appeals process though our summer months.

CHW had three different technicians come out to service/inspect/diagnose the A/C unit, the fourth one never even called to say he could respond to our request. Each had to conduct their own diagnoses of the issue. There was very poor communication between the technicians and CHW. None seem to be able to share the A/C information such Brand, model, nor what the problem was. The process took over six weeks to final get the A/C working properly. Two of the technicians stated that Fan Blower needed to be replaced, CHW wanted to replace the blower fan with an aftermarket Blower Motor.
Two technicians said that they would not recommend aftermarket replacement parts as they have a history of NOT holding up. The last technician stated that it wasn't the blower fan at all the wiring was not set right thus causing the problem with the blower not provided enough power to cool the rooms in the back part of the house. Not very happy with end results, yet I have been bombarded with solicitations from CHW about renewing my account. Doesn't make much since does it.

I felt that I could trust David for his sense of sincerity and knowledge that he provided to me. He answered my questions and I felt comfortable in going with Choice. Secondly, the price of the plan was the most reasonable. I appreciate the additional month and the $75 service call.

So far my experience with Choice Home Warranty has been excellent. When we made a claim and they had a hard time finding a technician, they gave me the option to find my own technician, which allowed us to get the needed repairs much sooner.

The electrical company was extremely professional and tried to troubleshoot the issue. However, I was very dissatisfied with CHW decision not to approve repair that I understood to be under the contract. Their explanation was not clear and appeared to be contradictory. Their offer for me to appeal was a joke. Although having a home warranty should bring some ease to customers, paying $ almost $700/year and not knowing if an issue is covered is costly, especially for retired seniors on limited income.

The technician arrived late because of extended time needed at a previous appointment, but he was friendly and competent.

I've had a couple of claims with Choice Home Warranty. I'm not really happy. They make it very difficult to get in touch with a live human being. And then unfortunately, a lot of times, there is that language barrier, too. It would be nice if I would speak to somebody who actually lives here in the United States. There's a lot of outsourcing so it makes it very difficult when I'm dealing with my home, and then I've got to call 5,000 miles away. It gets to be frustrating when I can't call near my own home.
Another issue with Choice is that a lot of their vendors do a no call, no show. Then when I call back to change the person, they wanna call the people and it takes my claim that much longer in order to process. I just had a recent claim on my garage door opener yesterday. A guy came out, and I visually watched him. I paid the $85 fee. I told him that the remote control's battery was changed. He said, "Well, I'll adjust." He didn't want me to be outside with him when he was doing his work. He said, "I'll let you know when I'm completed."
I looked through my window at the back there. He said he adjusted the two sensors and he checked everything over. How did he check anything over with no ladder? It was hard to get up there. I purposefully left a couple of spider webs around there to see if anything had been done. Nothing had been done. He told me everything was fine. He told me he made adjustments, and I watched him. I didn't see anything.
I've received mediocrity for $66 a month for a home warranty. They did replace my furnace. The furnace guy from M and W Heating was a nice gentleman. He came back a couple of times on his own accord without me having to go back through Choice warranty and never charged me a dime when they replaced my furnace. He told me that if I had any problems, I could give him a call directly. He never charged me to come back out when I was having this ticking noise. The ticking noise was the issue. There was a manufacturer defect inside the blower motor. When he came back out, what he found was that there were double screws, and the unit was sold that way because the unit is less than a year old.
They charged me another $85 fee, but he didn't charge me the additional for the labor to take everything back out in a park. They said that the $85 fee was to cover a warranty cost. My thing is this is the manufacturer that they chose to send me. Why aren't they bearing the cost for the part itself? It's under warranty, so why are they talking about warranty deductible? They told me it was a warranty deductible. M and W Heating was wondering what deductible they were talking about when it was less than a year old.
I've never known a company to charge a deductible on a manufactured part that's less than a year old. That should be 100% covered. I ended up having to pay him because they said, "Oh, well, within 30 days, if you have a problem with that. This is a new problem." It's a new furnace. This is a manufacturer's defect. Why am I paying $85 for a part that's less than a year old and it's brand new? They charged me $85 for that issue which was baffling to me because this could be 100% covered. Fortunately, I did get a good guy that came out. I have sent Mike from M and W Heating to other people that don't have warranty because he's fair and he saved me a lot. In the middle of the winter time, I was having a blower motor that was keeping me awake. It was horrific, and he came right out and told me what the problem was and got right on it.
As far as the process of submitting a claim, I don't care for it because it's either you do it on the phone or you have to do it online. And when you do it online, there's always miscommunication as to what's going on. I said, "No, it's not my AC. It's my furnace." Overall, communication is bad. Also, after filing claims, there's no follow through to say, "Hey, is everything working good?" They need to really look at their vendors that they use more. I'm gonna be shopping around again for a home warranty in other companies.

Their options are better and they give you higher repair costs. I like what they offered over what Choice did.
When I was with Choice, filing a claim was a fight sometimes. On my pool, they said they wouldn't cover the one thing that was wrong and it showed that it should have been covered in their prospectus thing. Evidently, it wasn't. I argued with them and they told me I could have another tech come out and look at it. The first one that came out said it was a short. We haven't had any here at all and it never affected anything else. I've got a house full of electronics and it affected nothing inside or outside. They told me to have another guy come out, which I would have to pay for myself. And if the outcome was different, they'd consider paying for it. That really pissed me off. I had it to pay things that were covered, not to argue about it. I had a toilet problem and that did get taken care of and the people were nice.

My washing machine developed a leak and I called Choice right away. I did not use the Internet, I used their phone in service request. Within two hours they had responded to me and I had an appointment set for service within four days. This was my first time using choice for service, having been a Sears master agreement customer for 30+ years. At this point the repairman has already been out and we are awaiting part to fix the machine. Sadly as seems to be the case after Covid, it will be two weeks before the part gets here. But considering, great service so far.

Am having the worst experience with CHW Insurance while living in the West Coast Bay Area. Maybe they are good on the East Coast, but my experience has been frustrating. I usually don't write reviews, but I felt it was important to share my experience so others won't encounter the same issues. I am currently dealing with a leak in the ceiling (claim #**), and the earliest appointment I can get is a week from now. They have no way to prioritize my request based on the urgency of the situation, and the vendors they recommend are unresponsive and careless.
I have been trying to reach the number provided by the insurance company, but no one picks up. The insurance company just says to keep trying, claiming they cannot do anything if the vendors don't respond to calls or messages. I have to wait until they show up, even if the house ceiling falls apart in the meantime. The worst part is they won't allow me to choose a vendor and get reimbursed. I just have to wait, wait, wait until they decide to show up.
I had another issue in the past with the same experience (claim #**). The technician couldn't identify or resolve the issue, and he claimed it wasn't covered by the insurance policy. CHW did nothing to support me as their customer, even though I provided all the details and mentioned it was covered by the policy. They don't care if your house is falling apart; they work on their own terms, and if they cannot resolve an issue, they will just say, "Not covered by the policy terms."

I even told him that he needed to stop pushing this program or he was going to lose the 1 year contract.
He would not stop and kept saying the same thing over and over so I told him to cancel the policy and hung up. He called back and apologized and then practically demanded I listen to his plan to save me money. I became very agitated and hung up again. He called back and I told him he had one last chance to shut up and take the 1 year sale. He finally did but it was really irritating. At this time with card rates being what they are, I did not want to charge over $2000 and possibly not get it paid before the interest hit.

Choice is good most of the time when you need service and normal service, BUT if you need an appliance replaced this is just not the best, they drill the technician like he is lying that an appliance needs to be replaced then they don’t actually replace the appliance. They give you very little towards a new one, like $323 for a washer, lol… What kind of washer can you buy for that? Then they don’t give you a check like they use to. They send you Lowe’s gift card which takes about 30 days to receive it, not sure why it takes so long, so you can’t even shop around at different stores to get the best price. You have to go to Lowe’s if you want to use the gift card, the only reason I keep this warranty is because it is cheaper when just needing service.

First of all, I do not like the process of getting a technician. I do not like that when you request a technician, Choice simply sends an email that has an appointment already set with a time window. This has been an ongoing issue. I feel the provider should call and discuss WHEN and WHAT TIME would work with the customer. Email is NOT the best form of communication when setting up service. I do not always check my email daily....and the service email jas gone undetected in the past. Having a provider just show up is not acceptable. AND worse, not being home when someone shows up is worse. This would not happen IF a phone call had occurred to establish an acceptable time for service.
Second, this provider had come to the house previously regarding the same issue. Last time he tried a quick fix without explaining the reason for the issue occurring. This quick fix worked for a while but ultimately led to a repeat of the issue. This is inconvenient and, I feel, unprofessional. The real issue could have caused a fire...as the electricity was "popping" the outlet and causing a small amount of fire to come from the outlet. Plus, 2 calls is very inconvenient.
