    Total Protect is fine. My experience with them is almost great, no problem. We just ended up with the wrong person. We got somebody else and he came out and did it perfectly. They might want to try to start screening their people a little bit more. The guy who talked to me on the phone was really nice.

    I first heard about TotalProtect through the bank when I took out my mortgage. I acquired a home warranty for security and safety, to make sure that if something happens, I will always be covered. It took a little while but in the end, it worked out really well. So I’m pleased with TotalProtect’s response and the turnaround. The staff was very helpful. Sometimes, it’s not as easy to find a service person in the area. Sometimes, that takes a little while but overall, I would say it’s good. The technicians are usually very good, too. Overall, I would recommend TotalProtect to a friend.

    It has been very good. I first heard about them when I received a letter in the mail telling me about the program and inviting me to join it. And it was in a Regions Bank envelope. I have two daughters that works at Regions. One of them, which is the local branch manager, says she heard good things about it, and so I enrolled. I've used it twice since.

    Sending a claim has been fairly easy. The claims reps were very professional. The technicians they sent were very knowledgeable of what they were here to do, very professional, very friendly and courteous. The quality of their work is very good. They have to keep up the good work and treat the people like they treated me, and they have a good thing going.

    Total Protect has sent out 3 separate service providers and have refused all three estimates for repair/replacement as being too high. 2nd tech was 6 hrs late and caused further damage. Now we are being told to wait until they can find a service provider that will replace for the cost they deem appropriate. We've now been 4 weeks without heat with <32F temps constantly dealing with them. Their guarantees/warranties seem useless at this point and there is and has been zero follow through or care for our well being regarding a situation they created.

    Everything has been excellent except lately and it has been a nightmare. The electricity went out in the house about a month ago. Approved Electric got assigned and their tech called me and said he will be there this afternoon. We had somebody at the house the entire day, and that night about 8:00, he hadn't shown up so I called and he says that his other job ran late and that he'll be here in the morning. We had somebody there in the morning but he never showed up or called. The next day, same thing. Finally on Saturday, we called to get another company, and he sent me a text about two hours after I called to get another company and said he's on his way. Approved Electric is unprofessional and I don't want them there again.

    The next company, Noasis, showed up when they said they would. They said it was a bad breaker and had to replace it. A week ago now, same problem happened. Same plugs and garage door went out. I called and they gave me Approved Electric again. I went out and looked; there are no new breakers. I don't know what they did, but they didn't do it right. I called and left a message for the tech. The next day, TotalProtect sent him a work order when I called. The next night, I hadn't heard from him nor had he returned my call. I called, he doesn't call me back, but answers TotalProtect's call. The tech said he never got the work order. I'm sure he got my message regarding the work order, so that's not an excuse. He told TotalProtect that he would get back with me.

    Wednesday to Monday I called to get a different company because TotalProtect said that Approved and Noasis were the only two that were approved by TotalProtect to do work. It took a couple of days but they found another company that would come out; they can't come out until Tuesday, but called me and told me that. They said they would be there between 11 and 1, Monday, on the 8th, which is fine. But not calling at all is totally unacceptable in my book. Everything else has been taken care of and we've been using TotalProtect for 12 years. TotalProtect is worth every penny we paid except this last time, and it's just this one company.

The second one did an excellent job and he was a very pleasant person, very polite and knows what he’s doing, was very flexible with my hours, not his hours. He was trying to please.

The company that came out twice was Dempsey Oil and I’ve been please with them – they were fantastic. But I’ve had one company, Spry Plumbing and Heating, come out once and would not have them in my home again.

    Submitting a claim was very easy. I just go into the computer and it walked me through it. Then they call later on the day or the next day and we set up a day and time for the repair person to come out and do what needs to be done. The claims representatives were very courteous and willing to work with my schedule. That's great because that's what I need.

    The technicians are on time and they call. They have been very nice and very courteous. They told me what's wrong with it and they tell me if they could fix it. The last time, he said, "What you really need to do is get an electrician to come out and look at the plug-in because that's probably what it is." He was very nice about it. They knew what the problem was. Like when the guy came out for the dishwasher, he knew exactly what it was after looking at the problem and he fixed it.

    Having TotalProtect for my home warranty has been a great thing. They've been so nice. I wouldn't drop it. I am single and don't have anyone to help me repair things. I don't have neighbors that are close by to recommend people to repair things.

    When we bought the house five years ago, we thought Total Protect would be a good idea to protect stuff. They were more clear on what they covered and how much they covered, and it was reasonably priced. Some of the other offers we got were hard to understand and I didn't feel comfortable with them. I liked the fact that Total Protect was straight out there.

    I submitted a claim and it was great! Just made a phone call and it was taken care of. The claims representative asked me a few questions, I answered them, gave me a choice of two people to come out, and I told her who I wanted, and that was it. It was very simple. The next day someone was here and the guy went out of his way to help me get my dishwasher fixed. All I had to do was pay the $75. The technician was very nice. He called me to let me know he was on the way, called me to let me know he was on the driveway. I'm alone during the day, so it was comfortable to know that that was who it was. Took care of the problem, knew exactly what it was, had to run out to the hardware store, went and got what he needed, fixed it and cleaned up after himself. It was great. Dishwasher's working fine now. I got the help I needed and I couldn't be happier. Total Protect is easy to understand and use.

    As far as the service is concerned, everything is fine. But it has some flaws in it. You just never know because you take a chance on when you think something is covered and they come out here and you find out it's not covered or part of it is not covered, so they won't pay but then you have to end up paying $75 and still end up getting the problem fixed by an independent contractor.

    It's a learning experience because in the beginning I didn't know what to say other than just tell them what's going on but now when I call, I know what to say. I have to trick them to get a correct answer out of them. I’ve used it several times on several things, and what I’ve done is I’ve had to press them really hard to tell me – "This is what’s wrong, is this going to be covered?" That’s the tricky part about the coverage.

    We had one issue where there was a lot of confusion because it was a new water heater that was put in and there were some issues that happened that they have to find out. They have to follow back and find out who was really responsible. It ended up actually being that it was pipes from the floor from when the house was built so it really wasn't their issue and they were still kind enough because of all that back and forth that we did that they waived our deductible to even get that one fix. We thought that was really, really nice of them to do that because we've been with them for a while.

    We feel like their price is the best. We used to be with another company that did not cover hot tubs, and they do. And they've been very, very good about sending people out, taking things real quickly. We've had a couple people come out that we weren't that crazy about. But still, they got the work done.

He checked the unit and told us that it's an older unit and it's up to us what we wanted to do, whether we wanted to cash out or if we just wanted it fixed. We wanted it fixed, so they ordered the part. However no one called to tell us "we ordered it and it's on its way." I had to call today to find out where we were.

    I put a claim in for my refrigerator. They sent out the service company. They misdiagnosed problem but paid for service that was done. Unfortunately, because they sent out incompetent service team I had to call Kitchen aid myself and have them come out to diagnose problem. They got diagnosis correct and the sealed system was problem. Kitchen Aid would pay for parts but labor was on me. I called Total Protect and they said no problem set up a new claim and just send bills in and they would take care of it up to$1000.

    Well I did that. Spent over $1000 on Labor when I sent bills in they delayed payment until I kept calling them. They informed me that they were making it part of my original claim and deducted that claim payment from the second one.

    So I was held responsible for them sending out an unreliable company to diagnose the problem. That Cost me $425 which they reimbursed me. But they deducted that from second claim even though the error was on their original companies diagnosis.

    They lied to me and did not deliver what they promised. Look at other companies as I am now. There seems to be better companies out there.

    I would not recommend this warranty company. I purchased this warranty to feel a little better about items breaking down in the home and they make it worse by giving you the runaround. I placed a claim in July for the air conditioner and they denied saying the unit needed maintenance, I used the company they sent out to do the maintenance and now the heat is not working and they are saying it is not maintained. How is this when the company they sent to my home did the maintenance they said needed to be done prior to them covering anything is irrelevant now! How does that work? That tells me that the companies they send out they do not trust? I put trust in the companies they send out or any company I may use on my own and trust that they are performing the work they say and how do I know if they are not properly performing the work I am being charged for when I am an average person that lacks the knowledge of ac/heating mechanics. I have received the pass around and put on hold time after time each day I called in to check the status of my claim because they have yet to place a call to me to tell me my claim is denied. I have been told it is going through approval, they are getting part specifications and when I talk to the company they recently came out they told me they are waiting for Total Protect to give them information and Total Protect tells me they are waiting on the company to give them information but in the meantime I am being told the claim is denied. Another call to the supposed office of the President got me to we will replace what is under contract that can be replaced and to contact the company to schedule the repairs. The next day same old thing the claim is denied and the company is waiting for Total Protect to provide information. I have maintenance receipts to prove my system is and has been maintained and they are not interested in reviewing these only to say the company told them the breakdown in the system due to lack of maintenance. I was told I could get a second company to come out and do a second opinion and if they say the system has not been maintained I would have to pay the $85 service charge. What is this warranty really about? I speak to someone else who then tells me what the repair company called in and reported to them and I look at my invoice and says something totally different. How does that work? I was then told to fax the invoice to Amber ** and when I call to check on the status of the fax they inform me it should not to go that person I should have emailed support services. I keep getting the runaround and I am very tired of the lack of concern or willingness of this company to get this resolved. They do not offer any solutions just the claim is denied. I am totally frustrated and have had to keep my temper under control day after day of people basically saying your maintenance receipts do not matter but that is why we are denying the claim because of the maintenance. If I am showing this work has been done what is the problem. I will not give up until my system is repaired or replaced as I was told when I purchased the warranty. It does not matter how old the system as long as the system has been maintained it will be repaired or replaced as long as it is a covered item. Well I am not getting what is covered under contract fixed just a denial of the claim. I will keep on this until resolved.

    It's incredible! I highly recommend it. It's very easy to submit a claim by phone or online (although I prefer using the phone if I had a couple of problems at once because then the rep is better able to batch it) and the people whom they send are just amazing. The quality of the folks that they brought in are the people that you’d want to research to bring in. And when it came to our appliances, the person that came out was the Sear’s maintenance person. That’s why we use Total Protect. We may have had one person last year that we didn’t think much of, but since then we’ve asked to change and someone else came which we just love. So I’m gonna renew next year. We have five water heaters, I’ll be renewing that as well. I’m just very pleased and we’ll continue to get it wherever we move to.

    I heard about TotalProtect from Bank of America; I was considering repairs so I acquired home warranty from them. We submitted a claim for the microwave and it was easy -- the tech came to fix it. But I called that particular company three times but the microwave door still wasn't fixed. We also have another claim for the dishwasher which I was also not happy about. I can't base a total experience on those two techs because others were good. I've been satisfied with the interactions with them but not with their work, but I would still recommend them to a friend because it saves money.

    My brother who lives in Texas has been talking about one for three or four years now and he had gotten one. He was quite satisfied with his and we hope just like life insurance, that we never have to use it. But we did on one occasion and he was very satisfied with the response and all that. So we had gotten TotalProtect.

    It was very, very easy to call a claim in to TotalProtect. We've only used it once but we went from there and the contact with the company was very easy, very pleasant, and very professional. The contractor they sent was fine. Some markets, there's not going to be as much to pick from and we are fairly small, larger than a town but smaller than a city. But TotalProtect was very accommodating saying if we were not satisfied or if they didn't come at a certain time, to call them back and they would get somebody else. The only thing, which wasn't TotalProtect's fault, was that it took the contractor about a week to get to us. So that's not too good and that’s probably due to where we live.

    But I would recommend TotalProtect. It's like meeting someone. The first impression goes a long way, but that person could turn out to be your worst enemy, but could be your best friend for life too. I've had that happen. So initial experience, very, very good. I don't anticipate any problems. I hope there won't be a reason for another call. But if we're in it for several years, you have to expect that there would be. But right now, overall satisfaction.

We were totally frustrated. I was ready to drop Total Protect because of the idiots that they sent. It took over two months to fix our washing machine because of the first guy being not knowledgeable enough, saying there's nothing wrong and then my wife heard a conversation he was having with another guy on the phone and he said something to him... to the point where the next guy came and ordered a part. Two weeks later, the thing got worse and we called the guy up to repair it. He came over, ordered a part. The part finally came and we had to wait two more weeks for the guy to show up to put the new part in and somehow it got broke putting it in or a chip broke. So we had to wait another two weeks for them to ship another one... It built up and I was mad as could be. We were upset with that.

I told her she can just look around to see if she could find a shop; somebody that can come in that same day to come take care of it. It took her about an hour or so, but she found somebody and they sent the person down and she called me to let me know.

    The only issue that I had was with one of the technicians that was sent down to take care of an issue that I had. We requested a plumber because we had a leak. The guy came down and he identified the issue being the furnace. We had a clog and we asked him if he can take care of that; just look at the clog for us. Worst case is that we'll pay him if we needed to. He had no interest in doing that. He came, identified the issue, it's not his problem and he left. It felt a little funny.

    I learned about TotalProtect through U.S. Bank. We had a home that was fairly new. It was only about eight years old and we had the water heater go out. It cost $1,800 to replace so I thought about it and went ahead and got a home warranty. We've had TotalProtect now for six years and they had very good results most of the time. We also picked up a second property since we have an 18-year-old and he's finishing his masters in Manhattan. He couldn't drive to and from college so we bought a second home and got it on TotalProtect as well and we've used it about nine times between two houses. Usually, it is for the heater or air conditioner.

    Other than one bad experience, it's been great. One time, their person was supposed to call and didn't follow up and it was in the middle of winter and we had a heater go out. In our case, it worked out fine because we have a second home. We just went over there for about four days till they got hold of someone to repair the heater. So overall. it's been fine. When we sat down and did a financial analysis, we've actually broke even back or are ahead between the two houses. We have had a washer and a refrigerator go out and these were fairly new appliances so that was surprising. We had the heat and air conditioning in both houses fixed twice. So financially we're ahead by about $200 or $250. I would recommend them.

And then, just recently with our microwave, the guy ordered the part and instead of saying that he would come back, which should have been free of charge to put the part in, what he did is he told my husband he could put it in himself.

    To whom it may concern,

    I wanted to express my heart felt gratitude to Stefany ** for assisting me with a recent claim. In short, Stefany is a rock star and here is why.

    My claim was for a dishwasher and one blunder after another occurred in getting a technician out to my home, then the part arrived at the vendors office and they had no idea who it went to. The order was cancelled and sent to another vendor, I called the original vendor and he had the part and wanted to install it...long story short after 4 weeks someone came out to replace the part and it did not solve the problem and another part was ordered. I was told it would be at my house in 5 days...2 weeks later the part never showed up. Fed up I tool to social media (Facebook) stating my displeasure. This is when I met Stefany. From the very beginning she was extremely apologetic and very eager to resolve my issue. She determined it would be best to replace the washer citing costly replacement parts and time. She ordered the DW and it arrived as scheduled, coordinated the install and all is well and I am doing the dishes once again.

    In conclusion what Stefany did was amazing...she did it with a smile (yes the customer knows when you are smiling), with professionalism and care. I knew right away she wanted to help resolve this as quickly as possible. When I look at the core values of CCHS this is how I would grade Stefany:

    Listen - A+
    Value Others - A+
    Promote Improvement - A+
    Reject Status Quo - A+
    Embrace Passion - A+
    Act Like Owners - A+

    Celebrate Success! - I hope she celebrates

    Customer service can be thankless at times, its a grind and I know this from personal experience. However if you enjoy what you and enjoy who you are doing it for it makes all the difference. Clearly Stefany takes her job very serious and is committed to exceeding customer expectations. As a result of Stefany's awesomeness you have a customer for life and I plan on consolidating my home warranties from my investment properties (5) to CCHS before the end of the year.

    Generally speaking, what you have to do to submit a claim with TotalProtect is pretty foolproof. No problems with the process. They do as advertised. Technicians came, they fixed what the issue was or told me that it wasn’t covered and went on their way. A couple of times they’ve screwed up, but they’ve always corrected it.

    I got insurance and started paying Over $50 a month for a gold plan. After a year my Home A/C Coil developed a leak. They send technicians twice to add freon. Later they also changed a capacitor, charging me $60 twice towards the deductible while the coil kept on leaking and would hold the freon only for a day! Finally they told me that the leak is because of corrosion and is not covered under their warranty. So I had to call another company and had the coil replaced paying the full amount. Total protect only covers you for minor failures and the company should be avoided!

    So far, my overall experience with Total Protect is good. My only issue is with the contractor they deal with, because last time I called for an AC job, the guy who came from the first contractor didn't know what to do. So I called again, and they didn't fix it, and I called again. The second guy came and fixed what the previous one messed up. They should be careful about the contractors they deal with, contractors who don't have the experience or the reputation. I'd recommend Total Protect.

    Very satisfied with all the claims. The only problem I experienced is on these recalls recently, but TotalProtect and the provider were very good about taking care of it and made sure I was satisfied. They were very diligent and the technician even gave me a personal phone number to check back with him because they had to come out on a recall a couple of times, and then they finally got it fixed. To be very truthful, the technician wasn’t even sure what he did, but there was some kind of a blockage in the line and evidently cleared. Once it cleared, then they got the thing balanced out and it’s working fine. So I was very satisfied with the service that I got .

    The only suggestion that I have that I’ve experienced that I think would be great for them to apply is some sort of a mandatory preventive maintenance program where we would have to share the cost but there would be a preventive maintenance program like on the air conditioning systems and things like that. That’s always a question that is asked when they come out to service your equipment (“Have you had preventive maintenance done?”) I think if there was an opportunity to do that through the insurance even with an extra co-pay, it would be a great enhancement to the program.

    I've been with Total Protect for a long time - ever since I bought my home except for one time where I must have missed a payment and they cancelled me because they said my contract was over. Then I had to redo it again. But it's very easy to submit a claim and every time I ever had one with them, it has always been good. I had one plumber come out one year when I had something go wrong. When he got done, he wouldn't open his window up. He made me put the check through the window opened only a crack like some kind of animal. That was the only bad thing I ever had. Aside from the plumber, they all took care of me and have been good to me.

    Things were getting older in the house, so I figured it would be a good thing to have a home warranty. Submitting a claim was very easy and the people are very cooperative and they helped out as much as they can. And I really like the whole plan; it's great. The last time I had a serviceman come in for the electric, I was having a problem. He was very nice, helpful, and explained what he was gonna do and what the problem was. He got here on time and finished up quickly. If you have a problem and it's not resolved, they will help you with it - like my washer went bad and it was too much for them to fix, so they actually helped me to purchase a new one. I have recommended them to other people.

    The man from Total Protect came here and put apart the parts, coz it was really hot here that day. Then he put a temporary part on it, went back to Jackson and picked up the real part and came back and fixed it. I was very thankful they didn't take any time. It was only like a couple of hours from the time we talked till they came out here and fixed it. It was really great. I was glad that he came out and fixed it that day.

    Submitting a claim with Total Protect was expeditious and problem free and they got right on it. The claims reps were excellent. I had two interactions that weren't quite pleasant but were taken care of. Twice we had one issue with the dishwasher. The measurement wasn't the standard measurement for the amount that I received to get another one. That was last year. This year, our air condition went out. The service technician misdiagnosed the unit not functioning properly, and we wound up going with another company because I couldn't wait as it was in the middle of summer. They're a good company and I would stay on board. It's a great service, quick to help me with the claim or going to detail any information that I may not be aware of.

    The cold water valve feeding my washing machine went bad. Called Total Protect and a knowledeable and efficient operator took the information and notifed a plumbing company. A technician came out that day, assessed the problem and fixed the problem. I have to say that I am completely satisfied with this encounter with Total Protect and their plumbing agent. This was a small problem and I hope if have a larger more complicated probelm the encounter will be the same. Thanks Total Protect. As far as a decription of the problem, the plumber removed the broken valve and replaced it with a new one. Any debris that was generated (minimal) was cleaned up by the technician. Totally satisfied with this encounter.

    I reported the issue with my in-built Microwave on August 8th, 2014. My microwave looks brand new from inside and outside and we keep in extremely clean. The microwave was switching on but not warming up. After my complaint, they advised someone will contact me with-in 24 hours which didn't happen. I ultimately had a technician come over from Fox Appliance (Igor or someone) who was extremely rude and blunt. He looked at the unit , opened screws and mother-board. Within 5 minutes, we closed everything and asked me for $60 co-payment. I asked him if the system is working. He said "No". I asked him what he found and what's the next step. He rudely told me that whatever he found, he'll let the insurance company know (Total Protect). He collected his $60 and left and we had no idea whats the next step. I called the insurance company and they said that they'll get a report from this guy based on which they'll let me know the next step. It took them (not 24 hours) but a week and few follow-ups from me. To my shock, they came back with the most absurd decision ever. They said they won't cover it in the warranty because the tech found grease inside the system when he pulled the motherboard out. This grease caused the failure of the mechanical system. Is it my fault if there is some grease rooted inside the system? As any other end user, I can only clean the unit from outside or inside (opening the door and removing the turn-tray). I don't open the screws to take the system apart and clean the entire set of mechanical parts each time I warm up something. Nor was I taking any Grease Bucket Challenge and dumping grease into the system. It is a normal built-up due to the fact that its right above the cooktop and this is bound to happen. They wouldn't understand or cover this. I am totally frustrated at their attitude of not accepting the fault and do the needful repair.

    My advise to any policy buyer is to stay away from this company. No wonders they are cheaper than most companies......whatever they are getting from the customers stays in their pocket. I am reporting them to BBB and heading to small claims court. I'll also put up the review on as many websites as possible to warn prospective customers to stay away from this un-professionalism.

    Appliances were getting older and TotalProtect Home Warranty had a good policy so I went with them. I've been with them for about ten years now. So far I've used them several times. It's easy to submit a claim and the techs have all been fairly good. I had one that worked on the air conditioner that wasn't too swift and he had to come back and do the same thing over again. But other than that, no real problem at all. Overall it's been very good... I had good service, I had good contractors, I had no qualms whatsoever.

    I was stupid for years, I didn’t realize that something like a home warranty existed. This is my first home so unless somebody tells you things like this, you don't really know. So, my brother and I were talking and he said "Oh, honey, you need to get a home warranty. Call TotalProtect." He went over it with me. Then they sent me information, that's when I signed up with them, and it's been wonderful. Every time I have something wrong, they're just right there for me. But this last experience was horrible for me. It was the air conditioning and the people that we chose. But it wasn't TotalProtect's fault. TotalProtect was right there and I appreciated them so much. I would never want to go to anyone else.

    I’ve been with TotalProtect for about 7 years or so now. I never had a home warranty before. At the time, I was just looking for ways that I could possibly get back closer to a stable income. I had been retired for a couple of years and if I had certain things happen, it wouldn’t quite fit into my budget - and I was trying to find a way to do that, and that has helped.

    I’ve had several calls placed with TotalProtect. I’ve never had any problem getting an answer. All the services I’ve had have been within a reasonable amount of time. I haven’t had any problems with the claims representatives. I’ve either called in or gone online to place a claim and I’ve gotten answer back within a couple of hours. That’s good for an online service that I had. I’d say about two hours, I would have a call either from them or from the people that would come out and service the equipment.

    I had one technician about 3 weeks ago when the heat and air system went out; I had no air conditioning. I placed a call online. I got a call back from the people that had the contract. They told me that I would hear from his contractor that was gonna come out and service the equipment. I talked to him within about 3 hours. We arranged the date for them to come out and work on the air conditioning system. It took two or three days because it’s on a weekend and I did not request it to be an emergency because I was the only one here and I really didn’t care if the air conditioner was on or not that much. They came out and the fellow fixed the air conditioner within a matter of an hour or so, and I’ve had no trouble with it. Overall, you know what your expenses is going to be up front, and everything gets done the way they advertise it. That’s all I can ask for.

    When I purchased my house five years ago, I had a home warranty for the first year and then I decided to just keep one but I wasn't satisfied with my home warranty so I went with Total Protect. I haven't had any issues submitting claims to them. The only issue I had was last summer when we had difficulties with my AC and I was left without AC for about two months while in a dispute with Total Protect Gold as far as what was covered and what wasn't. In the whole dispute, I had 3 different technicians that were sent out and they all had different diagnoses on the problem. I ended up using an outside vendor and paying them out of pocket, and Total Protect Gold reimbursed me for a portion of it. That wasn't a pleasurable experience but I still kept them around for some time being.

    I communicated with them both through email and phone call. Their reps are informative; I just didn't agree with what items were and weren't covered because I ended up being out of pocket about $1800 to get my AC back up and running and made me wonder why I was paying for a home warranty service to begin with. Other than the AC issue, they've been pretty quick and responsive and they've been able to repair everything. I’ve had a few calls here and there, like my most recent one which was a light fixture that went out and that was pretty quick to be taken care of, and a dishwasher that wasn’t heating right and they replaced the heating elements. Everything was handled pretty quickly and with no headache.

    Our mortgage company sent us a flyer about TotalProtect and we went ahead and took it out of our mortgage because the one we already had was about to expire. We've submitted a couple claims with this company and this last one was real easy. They did what they said they were supposed to, were told everything that was gonna happen step by step the whole way, and they were very friendly. The technicians showed up when they were supposed to. It couldn't have gone better. They have done a good work. I highly recommend it and have already recommended TotalProtect to several people.

    We’ve been living in this house for a long time and we like our house to be kept up. I heard about TotalProtect Home Warranty from City Mortgage. Then, I thought, because of our age, I’m 80 and my husband is 85, this TotalProtect would really help me in the long run. It was the first time I have heard of home warranty and we decided to get TotalProtect.

    All of the people we interacted with at TotalProtect have been very nice and polite, and answered all our questions. The times when I submitted a claim, the first person I spoke to was the claims representative and she helped me out. Then they got in contact with a contractor, either a plumber or electrician, and I heard from the person right away. Before I know it, the job was done. If I needed it, they did it. If I didn’t need it, they told me. They did their job and left everything clean. From the first person to the last person that came to my house, they were excellent. So, I’m very, very pleased with TotalProtect. This was the best company. I’ve never had home warranty before, but to have all of this was very nice.

    It's easy to submit claims to Total Protect. I do it on the laptop and it automatically gives me all the information real quick. The claims representatives call me and I call them and they're very prompt and give me the information on a very prompt basis. I had an air conditioning system that was malfunctioning and the technician was very helpful and fixed it very quickly - there were no expenses other than the deductible. There was a claim on a built-in microwave and they needed a part. That did take like about a month to get the delivery but they came back and installed the part and fixed it to a new condition. There is one problem: I had a dishwasher that was a Maytag that needed repair and they couldn't repair it so they replaced it with a different brand that was not as good as my Maytag.
