Our kitchen sink faucet was leaking and worn out. All the bearings have gone to pot. Home Warranty of America's claims process was pretty good up to a point. I was talking to them, and the one guy that I was filing the claim with said that I could call someone else and they’d reimburse me. I told him that wasn’t gonna happen because this is what I was paying them for. If I was going to do that, I could have done it on my own and not pay them. I was starting to get ready to cut them loose if I had to go that way, but we came to an agreement. He said, “Well, it'd be a couple of days.” I said, “Well, I know. Every time I’ve had call-ins before, it had been a couple of days.” I don’t mind waiting a couple of days, but I didn't like what he was telling me. Other than that, the technicians who have come out have been great.

As you mention, whenever there is not an available service provider, we have a dedicated team who is in charge to secure one as soon as possible ensuring our homeowners have re-established the peace of mind that comes with having a trusted home warranty company working with them. Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback. We hope your day goes beyond as you planned. Sincerely, The Digital Care Team.

We've had a claim where we had to go with someone on our own then requesting reimbursement because HWA was taking too long to get somebody to come out. Now I'm submitting all the paperwork for that so that we could get reimbursed because we paid out of pocket. I've spoken with a couple of different people at HWA. Some of them were helpful and some were not. I've asked for a copy of my policy and I still have not received it.

Following up on your contract, did you already receive the copy of it via email?

Over the years, my experience with Home Warranty of America has been great. We had trouble with the AC a little more than a month ago and it was kind of fixed it. But even the technician said, “It's not going to last. They're gonna have to replace everything now because this house is too old.” The AC worked for a while, but after a month, it broke down again. So we called and the same technician couldn't make it. Another company came out and the technician sent all the information. Since it’s more money than the warranty has to accept to pay, it takes a little longer. So we’re waiting on that. But that’s the only issue so far right now. Normally, the process is very quick. Once in a while, one of the third-party contractors is not too good or they take long. But then, they do it. Overall, I'm very happy with Home Warranty of America.

When I first went with Home Warranty, I was very pleased and it saved me money. But I've been very disappointed with my recent claim. I have multiple sclerosis, and I've tried to get my air conditioning fixed for weeks. They keep pushing it up saying they had to get somebody else but they can't find anybody. They still have no one, and it's a nightmare. Also, I’ve been trying to get my dishwasher fixed. Home Warranty previously sent a company that would work on my type of dishwasher. I kept that man's name and gave it to Home Warranty to call because my dishwasher was high-end, and they had trouble finding anyone. But they never call those people back. They just keep saying they can't find anyone. So it's been weeks of no dishwasher, and it’s over 100 degrees some days and I have no air conditioner that works all the time.
Someone finally did come out for my air conditioner and told us what was wrong with it. But then we never heard from them or Home Warranty again. I repeatedly called and I got hung up on. They don't answer me. Yesterday, someone told me that the people who said they could do my air conditioner, can't do it. Everyone that you speak to at Home Warranty are very polite and nice. But they start all over again, from the beginning. Nothing gets done and I’ve been on the telephone for hours.

Thank you kindly, Phoebe.

The claims submission process with HWA was very easy but the most recent company they sent wasn’t at the level that we’ve had other companies come in. Home Warranty said we were going to have an appointment on this day. Then the company said that we were gonna have to wait till the next week. When the guy came in, he said that it was an easy fix. He was on his cellphone and he waved like he was done. He was distracted by taking another phone call. So, when I went to turn the knob again on the stove, it wasn't fixed. I had to call and wait another week for another technician to come fix it. But HWA is a good company and they stand behind their policy and their customers. So, I have no complaints.

The washing machine wouldn't drain out. I sent in a claim on July 19 and the vendor came out today. So it's been a week and for a washing machine, that's not good customer service. Water has been in my machine from July 19 until today. Home Warranty of America needs to do better with putting vendors in place because now, the washing machine is no good. It's not repairable. So now, I have to wait to hear from Home Warranty of America.
When we had an air conditioner issue, Home Warranty of America sent several vendors out. The unit needed to be replaced. But they were just passing it up and sending different vendors out to do different things. So we had to come out of our pocket with $10,000 to replace the unit that we were paying home warranty for. Home Warranty of America is not good at covering you with a lot of things. You pay them, but they try to get out of paying you. So it's not a good experience. But we need it.

Cordially yours, Phoebe/Digital Care.

This Company is quick to take you money but not quick to help with a claim. I have filed two claims with them one for electrical (causing my well pump, washing machine and much more to continue to go out). They still have yet to send someone to my home for this claim and it's been about a month now, secondly one for my hvac system. My home has been hot for multiple days now and they stated again it would be 2 to 3 weeks before they can send someone. After calling and speaking to a supervisor they still have not send someone for my electrical and the person whom they got into contact with for my hvac stood me up and did not return my calls. When reporting this to them their response was we can try to set up another appt with them but it may be 2 weeks out. Finally they got the hvac person to come out and stated they don't even cover the basic motor for the unit!!!
They could not find techs for my location when they are supposed to have multiple vendors and they kept stating that they will continue to work on it but come back with the same responses. Why have warranty coverage for my area if you don't have vendors to cover it!!?? It's not the first time this company has been reported. After seeking advise from my attorney I found out they have over 21,000 claims against their company with the Better Business Bureau!!! I strongly recommend you to do the research before using this company or else you will be spending money for nothing!!!

Ever since Home Warranty of America transitioned to a new system, they've been having a lot of issues with scheduling a technician. We have multiple contracts with them and when we call, I tell them to not send a technician to the house in another state because I'm assuming the person on the lines is not from the US. I used to be able to log in and submit a claim online. But now, since they got a new system, I'm not able to log in because they screwed something up with the email system. So when I log in, I could only see one property address and not the other three properties. I called to complain about it but it never got solved. They wanted me to use another email address to solve the issue. But that's just silly. The email address that I'm trying to use never worked. So I’ve never been able to successfully log in even with the other email account to put in the claim. So I have to call every time now.
I really like some of the people that Home Warranty of American sends out. There’s an older gentleman that usually comes out and if I see his name or company right away assigned, then I know he’s gonna do a good job. But sometimes, if the claim gets assigned to someone that I haven't used before, I'm a little leery on it. So as soon as Home Warranty assigns my claim, I go to sites to check on reviews. If the contractor has really poor reviews, I ask Home Warranty to reassign my claim to someone else in their database. You don't get to pick the contractor. But I have a few people that they called out that I would rather assign my tickets to because they do things right. But overall, my experience with Home Warranty has been fair and solid.

The reps at Home Warranty of America try to be helpful but sometimes, there's nothing they can do. I like having the warranty around in case major things break but it takes a lot of time to get things fixed.

I don't like the way they have a different person to come out every time I have a claim for my air conditioner. I've had to deal with this for six years in a row and Home Warranty of America is not handling it properly. Every year, I'm coming out with more and more money, and I've had to fix something on my air conditioner unit because they won't replace the whole thing. I'm always out of $1,000 to $3,000 every year. So I don’t understand the point of having them. They're taking my money every month, so when I call with a problem, they need to get the problem fixed so that I'm not having to come out-of-pocket every year for the same service. Also, the English of some of their customer service reps is not that great.

Hello Sherry. Thank you for sharing this feedback. We are sorry to hear you have been experiencing every year an issue with your air conditioner.

Home Warranty of America would not pay for a service that was needed. Then any time I had an emergency, it took forever for me to get a contractor out here and they wouldn't let me use somebody that I knew. It was always some type of issue. I just have to wait until they could find one. When I had an issue with my heat, I needed somebody out immediately because it was in the middle of winter. It took them almost all day when I could have just got on the phone with somebody else and have them come out and then have them bill my home warranty.
There was one contractor that HWA had that was good. The other one, not so much. They left on their own and didn't perform the job. I had to call back and HWA had to send somebody else out. Overall, they need to work on their communication skills and they need to find a different method of hiring contractors for emergency situations, instead of just waiting all day or only responding to faxes from companies, what have you. My experiences were not good, which is why I don't have them anymore.

I filed a claim on Friday because our AC went out. Home Warranty of America gave me a number of the company so I called them and asked if they had received the work order. They said they had not. So then, I called Home Warranty of America back on Monday and I was told that they had not sent it yet. But they would up it to an emergency status because the weather has been so hot. It had already been three days at that time. I was told that it would be sent by the end of the day on Monday. This morning, I called the service provider again that they assigned me and they said they still hadn't gotten it. So they called Home Warranty again and they basically have no info. They just said, “We're doing it as quick as we can.” But we're now on day five since I filed the claim.
I also used Home Warranty for my garbage disposal and I had to do three different claims to finally get one to stick. I thought the service provider wasn’t calling me. But then I filed another claim and Home Warranty assigned me a new service provider. So it was probably Home Warranty not sending the work order, like they have done with my AC claim right now.

It hasn't been a good experience so far with HWA. In the few times I've had the need to fix something, the experience has never gone smoothly. The last one that happened was they looked at the work that was to be done, and they told me that they cannot provide the full amount. They said that they couldn't find a particular label on that particular piece of equipment. Since they can't find that label on that equipment, it means they can't cover it. I eventually had to pay everything out of pocket.

I tried to make one claim on a plumbing issue of leaking pipes. It was time-sensitive and it just totally fell through the cracks. HWA charged me $100 fee upfront and assigned some plumber in a completely different state, so I had to cancel it. I just did it myself. Then it took a week to get my $100 credited back. I’ve had claims before on my washer and dryer, my hot water heater, a plumbing issue when I first moved in the house, and those experiences were all good, simple, straightforward, and got done.

HWA put my account on suspension. Nobody knew why and nobody could fix it, so for five months, I was paying for services I couldn't use. It took seven or eight phone calls every single day for about a week for them to get it fixed. Then our latest claim for our air conditioner was a horrible experience. They sent somebody out here and he claimed nothing was wrong. Then within hours, my whole air conditioner broke down and HWA refused to fix it because they said there was nothing wrong with it. We live in Arizona, it was the middle of the summer, and they thought it was okay to just drop the ball and nobody cared. My family was without air conditioning for 48 hours, before I could finally pay for someone to come out because HWA wouldn't help us. Overall, my experience with them has been pretty sad.

Every time I put a claim in, it is simple. I had a couple issues with refrigerators and Home Warranty of America had someone fix it. The week I moved in, my dryer broke, and they covered half of it because I've only been here for a few days. They weren't sure. They gave us a 30-day grace period, but overall, everything's good with them. The only claim that bothered me was for my garage door. I told them I broke a spring. They sent somebody to repair it, took my $100 deductible and said, “Home Warranty of America doesn't cover springs.” It would have been easy to tell me that over the phone.
When they came to repair my water heater, there was asbestos on the line and nobody would fix it. If I don't have an eco-friendly system, they have to change it to the best one and I paid all this extra money to be upgraded, but they just sent me a check for the machine. They're not paying for the labor to connect it, and that's $2,000. It almost defeats the purpose of having the warranty for me.

I've had HWA for eight years and I've never had a claim until this year and it was terrible. My air conditioner went out and they could not give me a provider in my area. They tried twice, and one of them didn't go to the area. The next one didn't accept the work claim. So they had trouble finding a provider. Then, we got emails saying they were looking for another one, possibly five days. I said, “No. I'm in St. Louis. My air conditioner is out.” Finally, after nine days, they said that I could find an alternate person. So I did. They came out within three hours of calling them. Then I had to submit my invoice and, then I got an email saying that they would cover $500 or if I could send my invoice. I said I’d submit my invoice, which I did. It was $464.
I submitted it through the email address. As of now, I still haven't gotten my reimbursement. It hasn't been 10 days so I’m not expecting it right away, but it would have been nice to get some response saying that they received it. But what really upset me was the timeframe of how long it took them to provide a provider. I understand providers are very busy right now, and they want somebody that they can get retail from, but that's not my problem. They repaired it, but it's just a Band-Aid on it and I'm going to need probably further assistance down the road. So I'm just hoping I'll have a little better luck next time. But I've been very happy with them up to this point. They cover everything well and I'm very confident in the coverage they're giving me.

I love the service of HWA. When I used it, it was an easy, swift process. It made life easier because there were no hidden gimmicks to use it. Then, I ended up calling my sister and I told her, “You're about to buy your house. Look into this.” And now, she has it. At one point, my microwave door wouldn't close. So, they had to come in and repair that for me. The dishwasher wasn't draining and they came and repaired that too.
Their contractors make me feel comfortable. They’re not weird. They're very professional, polite and knowledgeable about their jobs. I also don't think I've ever waited more than 30 minutes to have something repaired. When I did, it was for my microwave, but it was a part that needed to come in. Also, one of the techs that came in for my dishwasher said, “If this ever goes out, we'll come out.” And I was comfortable. It's nice to know that I'll have a repeat person come through because they're already familiar with me.

Home Warranty of America helped me when I had a water heater went out, then when I needed a fix on a dryer, they were able to just reimburse me for one. They also did work on my air conditioning unit. It can take a couple of weeks for a contractor to come out but it depends. With my water heater, they were there the day of. On the other hand, my dryer was a couple of months' experience, but that was also part of a shortage.

We put in a claim with HWA for our AC. Since the last time we used the claim process, it's changed. It used to be, before, you log your claim and you can do everything online, which was nice. But now, it doesn't seem like you can do that. You have to call and then talk to somebody, explain your whole situation. The guy made it clear that they didn't have a whole lot of people that could come out at any reasonable time. It's summer, it's hot, and our conditioning isn't working. So he said that we could find our own people and have it reimbursed. He told me he was still going to work on finding somebody. That day, I had assumed I would hear something, but I didn't really hear anything. The next day, we couldn't really wait any longer, so we hired somebody to fix it.
Then we went on vacation for about a week. I really hadn't heard much from HWA. Then all of a sudden, I got this random text when I was on vacation, saying that somebody was en route to our house to fix our air conditioner. This was a week and a half later. I was like, “We’ve already got it fixed. But thank you.” So, when I came back, I called back in to make sure that we could get our claim reimbursed. So they gave me directions on how to do that and I emailed everything. But I haven't really heard anything back. So I hope we can get it reimbursed.
We also had another air conditioning issue last year and we also went through HWA and we waited a long time. But before that all happened, everything was good. We could do everything online. It was usually the garbage disposal issues we had before this and it was always taken care of very promptly. So I don’t know what’s changed, but it definitely has not been a change for the good.

I’ve had Home Warranty since 2014. For the most part, they've sent professionals over for the in-home visit, but whether or not the few issues that extended from this were on the professionals or on Home Warranty telling the professionals to do as little as possible, I do not know. In terms of customer service, normally, HWA is good at being timely in getting someone out to find the problem. The issue I've had is the solution didn't always stick.
I've had AC trouble for a good four years, where it was every year they come out, fiddle with it, and it would solve the problem for summer. The next summer, it would be an issue again. Until finally, my AC blew up and they had to fully replace it. If they can see a problem is going to not get better, and it's going to be three years of making minor fixes before it'll eventually not work anymore, they should be more proactive, especially with longtime customers who are specifically asking for it (to make a full replacement sooner).
People definitely want a home warranty, especially if they have appliances that were at the home before they were because they don't know the history. Knowing people that they can ask to give them a nonbiased review of their appliances as well outside of the home warranty is a good idea. That way they can have an idea if their home warranty company is not being forthright with them.

Putting in the claim is the simplest part and Home Warranty of America gets the vendor to come out. But once the vendor puts in their diagnosis, the follow-up on that takes forever. With the washer and dryer, they said they needed another opinion as the diagnosis wasn’t clear. Well, they needed three opinions of people until we were able to replace it. It took two and a half months. Then our washer and dryer is stackable. We have an LG on the bottom. They said we could order whatever and we ordered a GE. The GE appliance came, and then it didn’t stack with LG, so it had to go back. In the meantime, we're taking our laundry everywhere.
We also had something with the fridge and we ended up being without it for a few months. Then when they couldn't fix and couldn't replace things, they did a buyout, stated the amount, and said to let them know if we want it. We called back and told them we wanted it. But then, it still took two months to process that. So, it’s the length of time after putting the claim in that sometimes can be annoying. If HWA can fix it, it's fine. Nonetheless, I have peace of mind that if something breaks, I don't have to start thinking that it's gonna cost me money. I pay my monthly, then I pay a copay when the vendor comes out, and I know that I'm not gonna have any additional fees.

It's simple to submit claims to Home Warranty of America. The process kind of depends on the nature of the claim. We've had some that have been addressed pretty quickly, and other ones have been very slow, and some have been less than ideal. Their customer service is pretty challenging to work with, and they don't give out direct lines to follow up with a specific agent or a manager. Having contractors who have quicker availability would be good. Some of their contractors at least has gotten assigned quickly, but it has been three weeks before the contractor can get out. Making sure that whoever they're partnering with has that availability will help with the overall experience. As far as the contractors, they are very detailed. I would encourage people to really read the fine print about what's excluded because a lot of things that you're thinking would be covered aren't.

Over a year and a half, I haven't been able to file claims online through Home Warranty of America's portal system. It always has to be through customer service, so it's pretty inconvenient. Why have a website if it's not gonna work? I've mentioned this to them a few times, and it was always like, “Oh, I'm gonna send an email. We'll figure it out.” But there's never a follow up. My only care is that the claim gets through. So, after that, I don't care. But once I'm ready to file another claim, then I can't do it through the computer. I just keep calling through.
Other than that, every time I've called, I've always had a great time except for this latest time that I filed a claim. The claim prior to this was for the dishwasher. We had the top racks and the bottom wheels that needed to be replaced. So, we filed a claim back in April with this certain vendor, Local Home Appliance. The tech has already been out here before, and we didn't have an issue with him. Everything was fine. But this time around, he said, “Oh, the parts are kind of on a backorder. So, it might be a couple of weeks.” Then, it ended up being almost two months of a wait time, which was completely inconvenient because we were washing dishes by hand. What's the point of having a dishwasher if you're not gonna be able to use it?
This time around, the dishwasher’s having a leak. So, I called to file a claim. Home Warranty of America knows of my experience with Local Home Appliance. I kept saying, “I don't wanna work with this vendor again. How do we solve that issue, so when I filed another claim, that I don't have that same vendor?” They said, “Well, then you just request another one.” So, I filed a new claim for this dishwasher that has the leak. Their customer service rep was very adamant that their policy supersedes anything and whatever they say. So, I said, “So, you're giving me just two options, either I cancel my home warranty, or I have this vendor that I don't want in my house come over.” And he said, “No, I'm not saying that you have to cancel, but I'm telling you that I can’t get you another vendor.”
That same day, I was ready to cancel and I do have two policies with Home Warranty of America. I have it on rental property and the house that I live in. The one that I needed service one was for the house that I live at. I was ready to just cancel both of them. I spoke to their retention team. They said, “Absolutely, you can request another vendor. And we don't even need to know the reason why. That's totally your prerogative,” which was great. The person that I spoke to was great. I didn't cancel, and they’re working it out. The vendor came out and they said that we need a new pump. He’s gonna order the parts. He said he'd have it in a couple days. I haven't heard since. But so far, so good.

I have a problem with my septic tanks. I called Home Warranty of America yesterday and that's almost the third time the claim got filed under the wrong address (I have two contracts with them). I had to call back and it took almost two hours just to solve that problem. I thought that somebody put the right address in, and I paid the $75 fee, but they pulled them out now. This morning, the septic company called me and said they have a work order, but there’s also a cancelled order. I said, “That was for the wrong address. You should have another one.” “No, we don't.” I called back HWA and paid another $75. I was on the phone for one and a half hours and the rep just hung up on me. I called back again. The next one called me a **, and I had to pay another $75.
I hope I get the one tech that's not being used. I wasted more than three hours yesterday and today with this company, and I don't even know if somebody's gonna come out. For the wrong address, I had a company right away. For the address I needed the service at, all of a sudden, no company is available. I said, “These houses are three miles apart.” “Well, the system don't let me assign you one.”
Please don't sign up with Home Warranty of America with septic. Everything else was fine. I never had a problem. It’s always the septic, and it doesn't matter if it's been this house or in my other house. They're either mixing up the addresses or sending people that don't even pump septic.

Generally, the customer service of HWA is good. The last customer service agent I spoke with was very polite. But it was very clear English wasn't her first language. She also had a really bad stutter. I currently am unable to use any of the showers in my home and I filed my claim immediately after the 4th of July holiday. Because I knew that things happen over holidays and there would probably be a backlog of claims and I needed mine to be gotten to a little quicker, I called a follow-up on that and everyone I've spoken to at customer service has been very polite and kind.
I called the first plumber they assigned to me and he said, "I can't even get to you till the 13th to come and look." I said, "Okay," They said, "You might want to call and have someone else come out that can." I called HWA to have someone else come out and they were pretty responsive to that. They couldn't do it in that same phone call, but they said, "I'm gonna email someone and they'll call you." Someone called me and said, "It looks like we can get somebody else out there a little sooner." They gave me that company's number and that company was polite, lovely and wonderful.
But that company also warned me, which I super appreciate, "We can come out this Friday." 4th of July was a Sunday, the next day was a holiday so no complaints. So, between Tuesday and Friday was when I can first have someone out, which honestly is fast for the warranty company but for the fact that I can't use my shower, not that great.
The company came out, but they also told me that, "If it's going to cost more than $250, we're gonna have to get approval from the warranty company." I said, "It is definitely, 100%, gonna cost more than $250 because I have a two-story home, all of my showers on my upstairs." I asked them, "Who can I call? What can I do to help expedite this?" But they said, "We can't submit the claim. We can't do anything until we come out, and then again, we have to wait on the warranty company," which I get. They're about to do a big job in my house and they want to get paid for it.
They made me aware that if I wanted to, I could just call a plumber and then try to get reimbursement. But, if it takes HWA this long to get someone else through them, I don't really trust them to not be a big pain to reimburse me. So, I'm waiting on them to get approval. I called Tuesday and asked, "What can we do to expedite this?"
I was made aware very politely by a girl who stuttered a lot, that this takes three to five days. I said, "Yes, I understand. This takes three to five days, but I also can't use my shower in my house. If we can move this up a day or two, that would be great." She put me on hold, which was very polite, and she came back and said, "Yes, we're super sorry, but it absolutely takes three to five days, and so, we'll shoot for making it three days." I would have pushed harder, but I could tell that she had a stutter. Also, I've never had an issue resolved in less than three weeks, even when it was simple things like replacing my garbage disposal. Their booking time is really long.
But on the plus side, HWA has always sent me someone. I also love that I only have a $100 call fee. When they've sent me someone I don't like and I've had an issue again, and they tried to send me the same person, anytime I've said, "I don't like that contractor, I don't want them back here." they have always been very responsive to that. They've always done what they said they would do.

If I had gotten to understand when the program with HWA was up before the year that it was up, I would have switched. It's been really not pleasant. We would get one person and then they would tell us one thing. Then we would get someone else, and they would tell us something totally different. When something big is wrong in the home, it's like, “We cover that, but we don't cover that part of it.” Or “We have this. But according to your contract, if you don't have this part, then we can't do that.”
In the beginning, I had one package. Then I upgraded to a different package because they said that something else was not covered. But it was covered on the upgraded package. So I did that. That was two years ago. I had to pull the whole contract up because when I called to get something else done, the rep said that it wasn't covered. I had to read the contract to her to let her know, “What does this mean then if it's not covered?” She said, “Okay, I don't see that on my end.” I said, “What do you mean, you don't see that on your end? Aren't you calling me from the home warranty?” So if I had not had my contract in front of me, I would not have been able to get anything fixed.
Right now, we found out that they're not going to cover fixing the drywall. They only cover the drywall if they have to go into the wall to fix something, not if there was a leak that happened. They told me that I have to call the company back because they are the reason why the air conditioning leaked. Then they took so long, I still have yet to call the company back to say, “They're not going to cover it. What do we do now? Because they're not covering it because they said that it's your fault the air conditioning leaked down and caused the drywall to peel back.” I'm waiting to do that because I'm totally exhausted from talking to them, and them taking almost two months to tell me that they're not going to fix it.
Then the manager was supposed to call me back. But she did not call me back. I ended up calling back two weeks later and then finding out that it’s not covered. I'm so done with HWA. I was so close to being with COUNTRY Financial until I found out that the program had started over on the 1st. So I have missed it. I'm stuck with them until another year. So I just have to wait out another year and pray and hope that nothing else breaks down, or drips, or causes my ceiling to cave in, which is what looks like it’s getting ready to happen. Because I have to get the drywall figured out. I'm really not happy.

I've had service with Home Warranty of America for a long time, and it’s been good. The worst experience I had is where I had to keep on calling for updates, versus them calling me. That only happened on my last claim though. They said it had to go to their underwriting team then the next time, “Oh, yeah. It needs to go back,” and it hasn’t. My claim took a while and when it finally got done, they forgot that I have the better coverage that if I replace anything, it’s the Energy Plus. When they offered me whatever it is, it’s not even energy efficient. I said, “Hey, don’t forget, I have this plan.” They had to go back to submitting it for a review and I had to wait for that process again.
It didn't have to wait another week for the back and forth that has to get submitted if they would have caught it the first time. Besides that, HWA has been awesome. I love them. My first claim was really smooth and from this home, I've gotten help for a dishwasher, a fridge, a dryer and a toilet leak. On our prior property, we had the same, and they did plenty of stuff as well. People should definitely get a home warranty. I don’t use it that often, but I have peace of mind. When I have something happen, I have it.

Overall, it’s been a fair experience with HWA. However, I don't like that now they make you pay a service fee upfront. Also, I did have a really bad experience that almost made me leave them. When the pandemic hit, I waited the whole summer and no one ever called to get the vendor out to fix the air. I had to keep calling them. It was to the point where when I had called them back, I might just go ahead and cancel it. I ended up having to get it fixed a year later because they said everyone they had was stocked up.

I'm sorry to have to write this, but pls be careful with this company. Imagine having a stove/range -- perhaps the most essential appliance -- go unrepaired for five months. That's our situation. We purchased a warranty with HWA, filed a claim when the burner went bad, and a local contractor has come at least three times without fixing the problem. To the contractor's credit, they replaced a part each time. But the problem was never fixed. Then the contractor went away and dead silence. We heard nothing for two months, twice. Every time, we had to call them back, or call HWA to ask them to intervene again. Still, no resolution.

The unit has been maintained and is old now. Vendor sent in request the day they came out 6/18. It has been 11 days.

Now HWA is saying the Vendor HWA sent does not know what they are doing and they want to start over. They want to send another vendor. They don't want to replace the unit as requested by the first vendor.

We had a claim when our AC went out at the end of March last year, just as it was getting warm. HWA kept saying they don't have a claim for that, they would move me over to this department, and they would have a supervisor call me back. But no one ever called back. Then, they sent us to this AC guy and they didn't have the part. We went to the next AC guy and he had to call and fight them.
They threw me through so much. My husband ended up in the hospital with an infection and MRSA because we didn't get the AC taken care of until a week before my birthday - and my birthday is July 23rd. He can't be without AC and nobody cared. It was horrible and I was ready to cancel. But this year when our water tank went out, we paid upfront for the guy to fix it and we sent in the paperwork.

Then, when the guy found out that they had been assigned, he told me that they can't come out until Wednesday to do the repair. He said HWA just sent them an email and never called to check if they were available to do the repair.

We've used Home Warranty of America a few times. We had our washing machine go out on us. They assigned a local company to come take a look at it and assess it. We have to pay $100 to get somebody to come out and see if they can fix it. There's no additional repair cost at that point. If they fix it, it's a $100 flat fee for us to get that fixed and the peace of mind knowing it can be fixed.
The washing machine was beyond repair that it wouldn't make sense to even fix it because of the cost though. The repairman had to itemize everything that had to be done, and then sent that back to Home Warranty to make the decision if they want them to fix it, or if they were just going to give me a replacement cost value for it. In that case, HWA ended up giving me $500, which is decent for a 25-year old washing machine. It went well. We also had our dryer go out, which was the same process. They had a local service provider come out and take a look. It was 100 bucks and they fixed the dryer in that instance.
Everyone has different needs, but for the cost of the home warranty and the age of some of our bigger appliances like our furnace and our AC, it’s $550 a year and all that stuff is covered. For me, Home Warranty of America is worth looking into. The claims process was easy. The only complaint I had was with the contracting company. The first contractor did a great job, but it was right in the middle of COVID. She walked in with her shoes on and walked through the house. We asked her to put a mask. She didn't. It was a struggle because that was the first time we used that service. We were just happy to get the washing machine fixed. We live a little farther out from our metro area, so we don't want have a lot of service providers out this way that they contract with.

However, sometimes, the service is slow and it used to be a lot easier to submit claims with them. You could just fill out the information and forms online, which were available 24/7. But they stopped allowing you to do that within the last year and some other policy changes that they had where you used to pay the service provider via check when they arrived to do the work. Now, they make you pay for it ahead of time over the phone before they'll even process your claim.
I've had some good service providers and some not so good ones. Some of the ones that I've had the most trouble with have been small businesses versus some of the major people like the commercial-type contractors. They tend to take a long time and are hard to get on the phone usually. I've had to call Home Warranty of America several times to give the same information for them to escalate to get it resolved. I've had a claim open since April that I'm just now going to get somebody here to fix. Instead of selecting who their contractors are for the consumer, Home Warranty of America should give the consumer options where they can choose who their service provider would be based on some reviews. I don't even know the process by which they select individual organizations to do contract work. But at least allowing for the consumer to have some feedback in that would be helpful.

The overall service is not great. It takes weeks to get someone out here to fix anything. In the beginning, it was good. It would be a week which I can take. Two times, that was good. Since then, it's been bad. We went a month and a half without a dryer at one point. They fixed the dryer reportedly. A month or two later, it broke again. We just went out of pocket and hired someone to fix it. Now, it works great.
The contractors are terrible. When we call Home Warranty of America, they say, "We've given your name to a contractor. They'll be calling you." But they never call us so we've had to call them over and over again just to get someone else to show up. Part of the issue is they come out to our house and they say, "This is wrong. We gotta order it." Then it's another two weeks before it comes in. Then it's not the right part and they gotta do something. We've gone out of pocket to fix things the last couple of times for someone else to do it. We just haven't had the time or just energy to change providers.

At first, I wasn't pleased with Home Warranty of America at all because usually, I could hardly understand what the reps were saying because they sounded like foreigners. Then, when I put in the claim, it took them a while to send somebody out. At that time, I was having problems with my air conditioner but they sent someone and I finally got it straightened out. Aside from that, I also had a claim for my plumbing. I wasn't too satisfied with HWA at all. They need to change the companies that they deal with in people's areas that they work with.

I’ve used Home Warranty of America a couple of times and the first time was super smooth but the second time was a little less smooth. The third time was a little bumpy but it wasn't necessarily because of them. The companies that were being used were inadequately reaching out to me and solving the problem on their behalf and on the later end, it seemed like there was a little bit of a hiccup between the company and whoever was handling the warranty. But the warranty people were always helpful.
At one time, it was a little frustrating. I got passed to somebody else because one company was not answering the phone and HWA wasn’t helping me at all. So, the operator that I was using passed me to somebody else who was able to put an end to the problem. In my most recent claim, the tech came and took care of my air conditioner. Something was wrong with my evaporating coil and HWA helped me get that done. I came from apartment living and having that sort of security with HWA is extremely comforting. I’m very thankful for it.

I'm happy with Home Warranty of America. Anytime that we've had a claim, it's been handled properly and quickly. If something breaks down, we call them and they send somebody out to come look at it and fix it or replace it. They absorb the cost of how much it is going to be for us to have to pay out of pocket. I like their contractors too. There was one contractor when we were living in Meridianville in Alabama that we kind of had to get them to come out a few different times because they didn't want to work or decided to cut corners. But as soon as we made that known to Home Warranty of America, they sent someone else who could get the job done.

HWA probably needs to update or get different contractors to come down but HWA is always prompt. When my fridge was not cooling, they sent several people to try to fix it. But it was kind of during this pandemic time so they were unable to fix it. They couldn't get the parts and ended up having to replace the fridge. But they could never get a fridge so I ended up having to take a payout, buying one and paying the difference.

The submission part of the claims process is good. The only problem I've had in the past is they would give me numbers and then I will call the contractor or they will call me and say they're no longer dealing with HWA. I've had it happen on two occasions. HWA should get their contact updated, who they deal with and who they don't deal with. When I had to get a new hot water pump and system downstairs, instead of paying 8,000, I only had to pay around 650. So the warranty helped out a lot. I would recommend HWA because it's really cheap. It's $55 a month. Also, the $100 deductible is good.

The most recent claim I had is for the refrigerator. It had an ongoing problem for a year and a half. They've come over and fixed something. We were just really frustrated because we wound up buying a basic refrigerator and sticking it in the garage as a backup. We were taking stuff out of the fridge, putting it in the other fridge, back and forth, and they'd fix the little thing. It'll last for a couple of months and it’d start to malfunction again. But finally, they fixed the thermostat that was bad. It's been about five months and the refrigerator has been good so far.
But I wasn't too impressed with the guys who came for the garbage disposal. They got it fixed and it's been working but they were kind of questionable. They came in and they had to come back. The garbage disposal had a leak. HWA said they weren't going to cover it because we didn't say it upfront. The guys put eyeballs on it, they should have known what to add. I had to wind up paying for something and I thought that was kind of unfair.

I just renewed my HWA policy but I got a better coverage plan. I wanted to make sure more things were covered than the previous plan that I had. I did have a dishwasher problem and a contractor came out and fixed it. But I've had problems with the washer, dryer and refrigerator and when I was issued this warranty, it didn't cover them. The last claim was for a plumbing issue. There was sewage water backing up into my tub and shower, and the toilet didn't flush right. The water was seeping into my bedroom and the carpets were wet. When a contractor came out, they said they would fix the blockage problem but the carpet was a separate issue. But I gave all of this information at the same time and it was all related. They did resolve that blockage issue but it wasn't fully remedied. They did as much as they could to fix that one problem without fixing the whole problem.
I'm not dissatisfied with it but I wished that the whole problem would be resolved instead of trying to make me pay the same the $75 to get something fixed. I'm sure that it was more than $75 worth of work that they did when they did fix the blockage. But for them to say I would have to file another claim, have a different person come out and it'd cost me $75 again, I was thinking it was that one leak that caused this problem so it should all be covered. I didn't know if that was Home Warranty of America or the plumbing company that said that but I was not happy about that.

I'm not gonna re-up with HWA. They take a long time to get somebody to come out to the house. They contract with certain repair people in the area and frequently, those repair people are very busy and don't respond. Also, sometimes when they come out, they're really poor-quality people. There have been times when I've had to argue with the claims person as to where in the contract it shows that they should be paying for the issue. That's a problem too. Ultimately, they end up paying it because I could point to the contract and show where they had to pay it.
One time, I had trouble getting them to have somebody come out to fix my air conditioner. They didn't have anybody. People were refusing it. I finally had to get somebody and then, submit a claim. I got my person and they had to call up HWA and tell them what the claim is for. I had to wait for HWA to say whether they'll cover the repair or how much they'll cover. Then, I had to submit the receipt and it took 60 days before I got a check back. Also, they're supposed to be 24/7 service and there have been many times where something happened after hours and I couldn't get in touch with anybody - even just to submit the claim.

Home Warranty America has to be one of the worst companies I have dealt with in some time. For the fourth time this morning we have called to find our claim for repairs has been cancelled and the case closed. We had a microwave looked at by a HWA certified technician and our $60 deductible collected. Technician says a part is needed. It will be ordered. A week later we call and HWA has closed the case without any repairs being completed. A new claim has to be opened with HWA expecting another $60 deductible that they "waived as a courtesy." The second technician allegedly fixes the microwave and two weeks later it goes out again...HWA closed the case. A third case is opened and another $60 is paid because "it may be a different problem." I explain that it seems like the same problem, the thing doesn't work. Third technician comes out and explains that the microwave needs to be replaced. He would put the order in.
Today, we call for status on the new microwave and would you believe, "all repairs were completed and that case was closed." The HWA representative had to send an "escalated" case to a supervisor who will call tomorrow. By the way, they have never returned a call, never. We will have to call back tomorrow. This company deliberately closes cases on unfinished repairs, deliberately closes cases when replacement items are necessary, and never follows through with work orders or communication. Realtors beware, this company will give you a bad name. Buyers beware, you are wasting your money.

HWA had affordable rates and they covered a lot so we did it. They've always helped me a lot and I definitely recommend them. Whenever they contract a company, I go and do my research on them. They usually contract 5-star people for the most part. The work done is always top-notch. However, I submitted a claim almost over a week ago and I haven't even been assigned a contractor yet to come check out my house.
The contracting company that they had chosen said, "We got someone that’s gonna come and give an appraisal for the issue at your house.” After 24 hours, I hadn't heard from that company. I called them and they were saying, "We haven't received a work order from HWA yet. However, there's nothing that we could do even if we did get a work order from them." I asked why and they said, "There's a block on their account." I had tried calling HWA back but my time that I have to be on the phone is very limited. I was waiting to get put through to a representative for almost three hours. I still haven't heard back from them and this is the second time that's happened.
There could be more communication when it comes to a claim, having HWA check in with the customer asking, "How's your claim going? Have you heard anything? Is there an update? Has the contractor reached out to you?" Once the claim is submitted, they kind of just wipe their hands off it and that's that. There's not really any follow up or follow through with HWA. Also, when they can't find a contractor, they just tell you to go find a local company on your own then send them the bill after you pay it. That's not my job, that's theirs. If they can't find a contractor to come, what makes them think I'm gonna find one? They have more networking resources than I do.

I’ve had three claims and they went through. But it took about a month and a half for people to come down here and fix the issue. All three of the claims was like that. Home Warranty said they couldn't get to me and I had to wait in line. While I was waiting in line for the first claim, I had another claim that went out. So when I called them, I said, “Can I file a second claim for this one also?” The rep said, “Sure.” So I went on and paid the extra $100 for the second claim. Then I had to wait another three and a half weeks for the people to even come out. During that time, Home Warranty did not try to help me deal with those people to try to get them out here in at least half the length of the time that I was down.
When my hot water heater went out, the contractor came out here and put a brand new one in there that lasted two days. I had to write a claim on that one, so it took another three weeks for the contractor to come out here and look at it. So I’m not too happy with how the process is working. When I talked to one of the reps, I was told, “We’re gonna examine our process of getting people out there to help people.” But then Home Warranty doesn’t even follow up. I never heard no more from Home Warranty till I filed the second claim. Then I had to end up filing the third claim. But the guy who came out on the second claim saw what the issue was and he fixed it. But he said he had to wait for another part on the second claim. It’s been all messed up. The process is just bad.

We have had some issues that would have cost us a fair amount of money that HWA fixed. They take a little bit of time to send someone, but once they do, they're okay. I had some issues last year, like they sent contractors who would not perform a service. There was inconsistency with the contractors they sent but we still get charged. That was something I was not pleased about. But this year, it's been fine. They answer on weekends, which I didn't really have before, and they send someone within a day or two. They try to find individuals who can come as soon as possible. I would like it to be sooner at times with plumbing issues, but it's fine.

It's been a mix of experiences when I submit a claim to HWA. Sometimes it's good, but sometimes they're way too difficult. Sometimes I’ll call and I don't hear nothing back and I have to call again. My claim wasn't processed all the way. I have to go through it over and over. Sometimes I'll call the company or I'll wait. But if the company never calls me and I call them the next day, they always tell me, "Oh, we haven't received anything from Home Warranty."

I'm very disappointed in HWA. They are incredibly unresponsive. They no longer can allow me to submit and manage claims online. I have to call every single time and even when I do call, I never seem to get to the right department. I'm transferred at least twice. It’s not worth the cost. The only reason why I still have the service is because I'm gonna be submitting a reimbursement claim. If I cancel the service, they’ll go ahead and cancel my claim. As soon as that's resolved, I'm gonna be cancelling the service immediately.
8 out of 10 of their contractors are incompetent. We had a leak that was leaking to our crawlspace and it turned out the leak was in a pipe that was in our wall. HWA sent out one of their contractors and I've never seen a person so lazy. He didn't wanna do anything. He said, "I don't know what we can do about this.” If I hire a plumber to come to my house, I don't wanna hear, “I don’t know how to handle this.” That's ridiculous for a licensed plumber to come and say that to you. We asked, "Do we need to repipe the whole house?” He said, “ I guess I'll submit it.” He was just real casual about it.
A week went by and we heard nothing from him or from HWA. We didn't even know if it was submitted. We called and was transferred 14 times. One day, I spent three hours on the phone with HWA, going back and forth, being transferred while they figured out which specialized department needed to handle my call because that claim came in after some cut-off in their system. There was some madness that had nothing to do with me as a customer.
We had success with a plumber we used through them two years ago so we called them to come out to give an assessment. They gave an assessment right away and told us what needed to happen. I called HWA and they made me submit an invoice which I did. They said, “Your claim is in another department and we're waiting to hear back from them. You need to keep calling back.” I called every day for a week. I finally talked to someone who said, "Even though this is a contractor that's in our system, because you called them directly, it's probably not gonna work out. You might be better off doing a reimbursement claim.” I got the information on how to do that and we just paid everything ourselves at that point because it was getting ridiculous. I'm gonna submit it for the reimbursement. I'm sure I'm only gonna get like $1,000, if that, or they'll make up some excuse to say he doesn't qualify or some other excuse to screw us over. Then I'll put the whole thing to bed by canceling the service.

The last time that I sent in a claim, I didn't like the process because Home Warranty changed the policy where instead of paying the vendor after they fixed the problem, we had to pay upfront.

When I got the house in 2019, I had to come out here to look at the air conditioner. I was told to contact the contractor, which was what I did. The repair guy fixed it so it worked last year, 2020, during COVID. This year, it’s impaired again. So I called Home Warranty of America and they gave me somebody in South Holland, Illinois. The appointment was for the 9th of June. On the 8th of June, the contractor called me and told me that they would not be able to come and that it would have to be on the 18th. So I explained to them I have Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and I needed air conditioning because it was hot in the beginning of June. They said I was gonna have to call HWA. I did not tell them to set that appointment on the 18th. So when I called Home Warranty of America, they told me that they would try to find me somebody else within 24 to 48 hours.
No one ever called me back. So, on the 17th of June, I called the people who were supposed to come out here to fix the air and they said that they had already cancelled me. So, I called Home Warranty that day, which was the day before they said the contractor was supposed to come out here. I gave them the contract number and I told them what happened and that I would like to have my money back.
The rep told me it would take 14 days from the 17th to get my $100 deductible back. It’s been some days now. I had another contract with HWA on my hot water heater. They couldn’t fix it but they partially replaced it. They gave me $700 and I got the runaround. Their customer service wasn’t very good. I was gonna put them down to get Home Shield or Choice or someone else because I don’t like HWA.

When we purchased our home, we had a 13-month Home Warranty of America plan that was purchased by the previous owners as part of the sale for us. We renewed in May 1st. There was one claim very shortly after we moved in. One of the outside air conditioning unit stopped working and it was a simple fix. The person came the next day and replaced the part and then the AC has been working fine since then.
Our most recent claim with them was for the ceiling fan in our bedroom. It smelled like it was burning. They sent out an electrician to check it out. I was not exactly pleased with the electrician because he didn't really do anything. He just said, “Oh, well, if that's what you smell, then the motor is going out.” So, I let HWA know about that and instead of having the electrician come out to fix it to replace and put a new fan in, HWA offered to just do a payout, which is what they would pay to the electrician to do it so that I could have it done myself by somebody that I chose. So, we took that option.
Our experiences can be a little challenging at times. When the electrician came out, it was a $100 visit fee but they charged 161. So, I let HWA know and it took them a long time to get me the 61 back. I had to remind them about it like two different times. So, when things are a little out of the norm, it seems to take them a while to get things done. Sometimes, you have to stay on them to make it happen but it does get done.

Submitting a claim to Home Warranty of America was painless. The problem that we had was the repairman getting to us. I filed a claim for the furnace in the attic and another for a busted pipe from the furnace. That was due to the excessive winter weather that we had. The contractor got to us fairly quickly when the furnace broke down. It was turned off during the winter weather because the pipes had frozen the condensation it produced.
In the first call we placed for the claim over our garbage disposal leaking, the contractor came out and replaced it. But they did not put the pipes in correctly and I ended up having a huge leak in the sink because of it. It took them several days to come out. This does not necessarily reflect on how Home Warranty of America wants it to be but the service that we got from the repairman they sent out was subpar to crap. If I wanted to do a side project and I needed to hire someone like that, I wouldn't go with any of the people that HWAS has provided us with.
We just pay our call fee and this may be the nature of the beast and that is how HWA has their program set up. But for instance, the sink was leaking and I said it appeared to come from the garbage disposal, the repairman took it as the garbage disposal needing to be replaced. He didn't seem to check anything else underneath for any sort of leak. He was not the best customer service I’ve had but then, he fixes pipes, not people. We were debating about going with another warranty program because of the call service provided. HWA pays their tradesman the call fee, but however they go about doing that, they’re only getting this much for X amount of work. It's a $500 job repair but they’re only getting $100 cash and then, they got to wait for Home Warranty to pay them out the rest. Maybe that's the issue with the tradesman.
If I have to submit a warranty with HWA, I expect a journeyman tradesman to be out. If not getting out that day, there should have some form of contact from them telling us that they’re three jobs away from getting to my place and that they’ll be here tomorrow. The only form of contact that we have is to Home Warranty of America. Until the tradesman called us, we have no idea who to call such as for knowing a timeframe. For instance, when the sink is leaking, I need to know how long I'm going to be without that sink. I need to come up with a workaround so I can put water in it. Because with something that's water leaking, especially in hot and humid Oklahoma, I can have one small problem turn into a huge problem.
If we're paying 60 bucks a month now or whatever the fee is flat out for the service, it sucks that we have to wait so long to at least know when someone's going to be out to help us. That's a huge thing. Home Warranty of America and their call centers do a great job. The customer service is great as well as answering the questions. But the tradesmen journeymen that they hire suck. They bring the rating down.

Home Warranty of America's customer service is okay. But I had issues with the vendors and the communication of the vendors coming out. Usually, there's no follow-up, and I usually have to chase a lot. Most recently, I had a claim for a plumbing issue. They sent somebody out. They took a look at it and said they can't really do anything until the wall is taken down. So, I had to call insurance separately to take the wall down. Without knowing that there's a plumbing issue behind, it came back and forth. Then the plumber was no longer available. It’s like they closed the claim, and so I had to redo the claim again, repay the initial upfront fee again, and then had somebody come out again to take a look at it.
I'm still waiting to hear back from them. Since that time, it's been a long time. So, I still haven't been able to use the restroom upstairs for almost seven months. I also had a claim for the microwave before. That also took about seven months. An AC claim took three months as well. So, it takes a long time to resolve anything.

The service with Home Warranty of America has been up and down. When I first got the service, my online profile worked fine. I usually go on the phone or computer and file claims. The old system used to let me even choose which vendors based on three that I used to have, the plumbing or anything AC related, and those things tend to break a lot in Vegas.

To this day, nobody on the phone in Guatemala City can give me my username and password back for me to file my own things, leaving me having to call every time that I have a claim. The response times when people answer varies and a lot of people wait up to an hour but it got better slightly.
HWA sent a vendor recently for plumbing who tried to upcharge me for $3,000 for a fix. They never completed the work and I had to spend an hour or more on the phone at Guatemala City. The guy was able to switch me to a smaller company that did a better job in the past on plumbing. My last service call went okay but overall from when I started with them and the ease of self-help online to now, it's gone significantly down.
Anyone else I know who had the problems I've had probably would have canceled and went somewhere else. But I’ve had HWA so long. I recently retired from the Air Force. So, I'm home now but when I used to drive to work for 40 minutes a day, I'd call when I get in the car. Most of my drive to work would be the wait time waiting for someone in Guatemala City call center to answer. Then, I would have to rush them through the call because I would be almost at work and I couldn't stay on the phone. I probably spent hours on the phone for a couple of fixes just to get things done right. I'm only with HWA because I've been lazy not to find a different company.

I really liked it when Home Warranty of America could do things online. It was a lot more convenient that way. But they're having a lot of issues with their website right now. For my most recent claim, the rep I was on the phone with helped me file it really quickly. That was done Friday and she said it would take two business days. I've yet to be called.
I've had Home Warranty of America cover my air conditioner a few times. Tecnicians always come in and they're super nice. They are very clean and they leave everything cleaned up. Home Warranty of America has pretty good coverage as far as everything that goes on inside the houses. The only thing I'm worried about now is nothing outside is really covered as far as roofing or fencing. That's probably because I'm in such a windy area. Other than that, I'm not dissatisfied at all.

Home Warranty of America was pretty good until I had to wait months on end for an air conditioner. They told me it was gonna be a $75 fee for the deductible. That ended up coming out to be $300 because my warranty company didn't cover internal lines and moving ductwork. I didn't know about that. I waited and went two and a half months without air conditioning throughout the summer. The warranty company was having issues with parts and they couldn't get a coil. When they got the coil, the condenser wasn't there. They got the condenser but the coil wasn't there. The unit got fixed months later.
The final guy I talked to was awesome. He called me once a week to check in and see how we were doing because he knew that I was pissed off. Overall, the home warranty is great to have. But my experience with the air conditioner was a horrible. I'm actually looking into getting a new warranty. I've been up in the air on if I want to go with Home Warranty of America again.

I had a line that leaked and I should have cancelled Home Warranty of America after that. If I was on a crawlspace, it would have been okay because they paid to have the leak fixed. But since I was on a slab, they sent Roto-Rooter out who jackhammered to the foundation and tore up my floor. I had to pay them $1,300 for the jackhammer and the floor. Then, I had to pay somebody else to replace the floor in the room. I paid $2,600 for it. So, HWA’s service is worthless. It looks like the service has lapsed. I’m glad that something happened with the credit card and it didn’t go through. I don’t wanna pay HWA any more money. I've already paid them too much.

Home Warranty of America is usually efficient at getting back to me and coordinating somebody to come out. Typically, they let me know who it would be and that they will reach out to me.

I have an older home so I don't have to have a ton of money in the bank if something goes wrong. Because stuff does. But I've been lucky so far to only have one claim with Home Warranty of America.

The flusher was mounted to the side as opposed to the face, which was a completely different setup. The previous homeowner had installed it incorrectly causing my water to run continuously. So, the contractor had to special-order the part for a side flush and come back. Since the repair, the toilet has been working flawlessly.

Home Warranty of America is a great way to provide you with home maintenance for the first year after purchasing your home. But they should have a better claim service. The process is easy when you submit it but complicated in terms of getting someone to go out there and try to arrange that process. HWA will contact you within two to five business days but there’s no button if you need someone out faster for emergencies. The interaction with the representative is typically fast although there was a time when we had to wait longer. In all the times, we always had a good experience, except for one. They had an emergency maintenance issue and trying to work with their customer service team was a nightmare.

They've all been pretty helpful. The service guys that they have sent out have been really nice. It's really easy to submit a claim online. Then HWA sends me an email with whoever it's been assigned to, and if I don't hear back from the contractor within 24 hours, I just call them. The last time we had to have someone come out was for electric work and the tech exceeded my expectations. He had to cut into the drywall in our ceiling and our wall. I totally expected to come home to a complete mess. But he cleaned everything up when he was done, and even screwed the drywall pieces back in the ceiling to where it didn't look like a total disaster. So I was really impressed. Overall, it's been a great experience with HWA. I would recommend it. I like having that extra peace of mind, knowing that we won’t have to file a homeowner's claim because we have the home warranty. For what it costs, it’s definitely worth it.

I've dealt with HWA a couple of times and they've been good.

He called me back, to the day, a month later. He went ahead and processed my renewal but I was waiting. I had to keep the money in my account because I paid it in my head. I had given him my credit card information and I was waiting for the charge to come through. I was checking my bank account, making sure my balance was right. It did not go through until my renewal date another month later and I wish they had just gone ahead and pulled it.
HWA has done right by me at the least. If someone was asking about something like this, I'd tell them who I have and how they've done. The technicians that HWA has hooked up have all done the work really well. They've always been professional. The vetting there is good.

My colleague and I both bought a house at the same time. She went with a different company and they have been much more quick to respond by replacing the broken items as opposed to continuing to service. I have a fridge that is gonna go on its fourth repair for the exact same thing. There's something wrong with the board that governs the water and ice maker. Home Warranty of America has had people here at least three times to replace it, as opposed to finally just saying, “Look, we're going to replace this.” When my hot tub went, they spent thousands on fixing parts, as opposed to biting the bullet and saying, “Hey, we're just gonna replace this.”
The fridge situation has not been a positive experience for me. I'm glad it wasn't a dishwasher though. It's not a big deal if the fridge was offline for a little while. It hasn't been essential, but it works, and then it stops working, works and then stops. That is annoying. Part of the reason why I haven't called back to have it serviced yet again is because we're not making headway. Also, what happens is, it's four months in between, so they were new claims every time.
Sometimes Home Warranty of America is slow as well. We've had some issues with finding service providers in our area. Our ceiling hasn't been repaired because it was left for me to determine how to make it work within the budget they gave us and I've been negligent on that one. We're on our third year with HWA right now and it's worked out well enough for us that the monthly fee relative to the repairs that have needed to be done were definitely worth it. I've submitted several claims and whenever I get someone on the phone, they're helpful. They try to help me resolve my issues. When they have a service professional around, it ends up being a really easy, positive process. They ended up replacing a heater for us too.

The process for submitting a claim is straightforward, whether I do it online or speak with someone. However, I run into some issues with the vendor assignment. Once a vendor is assigned, automatically there is a window of 24 to 48 hours for the vendor to call in. Now, it's quite likely that the vendor calls in to say they're not available for another 10 days. I don't want to wait for 24 to 48 hours to be told that they're not available for a longer period of time. What I end up doing is, I keep looking at the vendor that's been assigned or the text message and then I reach out to the vendor directly and say, "Hey, this is a ticket that was open, and I'm trying to schedule an appointment." This adds up to my pain.
I have HWA, but I don't want to use it. If I have to use it, it's critical. At that point, if I have to look around to get someone and schedule things, that becomes a little crazy. Reaching back out to HWA and asking them to change the vendor or get a vendor who might be available is easy though. They're always very supportive. They have me hold on and they reach out to the vendors and get things done.
My experience has been overall positive with HWA. They have always kept their commitment, but there are two things that I find which can be improved. One is, the overall time it takes since I open up a claim and by the time a person comes in is significantly high. It can be addressed. The second thing is it's very expensive. There are a few things that HWA covers and a few things that they do not. For example, I was getting my boiler changed, and they covered the boiler but not installation. This was not made obvious to me. The vendor privately disclosed to me that HWA does not pay them for installation and they have to charge it from the customer, which seems not right. Both HWA and the vendor came back with a significant cost for replacing the boiler, although it was covered. Things of that sort seem a little out of ordinary, but other than that, it's generally a good service.

It was about a week and a half because we had to wait for the new furnace. The technicians were great. Unfortunately, sometimes the hold times are bad, but people are breaking down all over the place. Other than that, my Home Warranty of America experience has been positive.

HWA came out a couple of times for a capacitor change for the AC. The techs themselves are good. However, online, not so much. The equipment was new, so I don't think I would even use HWA anymore because there’s obviously an issue with the database. Also, for what we are getting, it’s too much. I was trying to make changes to my policy last time and the website did not let me. I called someone and they said, “Oh no, you cannot call this number you have to call some other number.” We waited and gave up. I tried to call again and they were closed. I was like, “Screw this. I’ll just keep the policy active.” Next thing I know, it was auto-renewed. I was like, “Okay, I’ll just keep it this way this time. And next time, I'm not gonna continue.” The reason I have it this time is because I was too lazy to call back and cancel it.

My AC went and it's under warranty. Usually, it's 24 to 48 hours to get somebody. But I waited three days and HWA kept giving me names of people who no longer work in my area. They kept saying, “We don't have anybody to service you.” I had just renewed the contract. I said, “If you told me you no longer have anybody to service me in this area, I would not be paying $59.95 a month for this.” It was ridiculous that they would take my money and not have anybody to come out to fix my AC. I said, “If I go and get my own person, would you pay for it?” They would give me the runaround. But then they finally said they'd pay for it. I also never had problems with the contractors. They were very nice.

My first claim with Home Warranty of America was terrible. We bought the Home Warranty in February. We're in Utah so there was snow everywhere. When we went to turn on the air conditioning at the end of May, it kind of was working and then just died. The outside condenser just died. I went online. I submitted a claim. They ask you a few questions and I answered one of those questions wrong, and they denied my claim. We were in an appeals process, and it was not very good experience. They ended up denying my claim. We had to, out of pocket, buy a whole new system. In the meantime, we were uncomfortable until I saved up enough money. Home Warranty of America offered me 500 bucks, which was a lot less than I ended up having to pay.
We had to go buy window units for my house. So, we probably spent $500 on that. It was ridiculous. The reason why they denied the claim was because I couldn't prove that the AC was working. They asked me, “Has it worked at all in the season?” I felt like they were working really hard to find a way to deny it. When I tried to explain the situation, they said it was up to me to prove that it was working. They asked me to prove that it's been serviced. I'm a property manager and I have my guy that works on all my furnaces and ACs. He came out and did the regular service just like he does it. In Utah, you don't have to be certified HVAC to provide service on it. Then they started saying, “Well, we need to see his credentials.”

Our refrigerator stopped working after 15 years. When we called HWA, they sent out a technician that confirmed the refrigerator could not be repaired. We watched the technician call this in to HWA but HWA has refused to give us confirmation of this. Here are the tactics they have used to refuse to pay:
2) They will ignore your emails.
3) The kicker, they wait for you to get rid of the appliance and then claim that the appliance could in fact have been repaired and they’d do so if only you kept it, so your cash out option is something like $200, an amount that barely covers the taxes associated with the new appliance.
4) They refuse to give you a report stating the appliance could have been repaired, because of course that would be inconsistent with the actual report.
Basically, you have no leverage. My advice is to keep your broken appliance or never admit to them you got rid of it. That said, I believe there never would have been an offer (they would have continued to ignore my emails and hang up on me) without this information. They did eventually pay us $600 for a broken washer/dryer but that was before the refrigerator and it was a time-intensive process.

I've had two claims with HWA. One was the water heater and then the other one was a leak in my wall. Submitting a claim was not bad. It was quite simple. It was just the follow-up stuff that was really annoying. Then, they picked and chose what is in the contract, what's covered, and what's not. My first claim was for the hot water heater that wouldn't stay lit. For plumbing, they only have two plumbers that they use. The one plumbing company would never really call me back. I called to get a second plumbing company's opinion. That one, when I called them, they said that they don't even work with home warranties, so they were not sure why Home Warranty of America gave me their information.
So, there's only one plumbing company they use, which I didn't like. They eventually got everything fixed, but the first part of it was that my hot water heater was still under warranty, but nobody even came out to look at it. They just went off my word. I told them that my pilot light wasn't working. Going off my word, they said, "We need to call the warranty company and you need to ask for this part replacement." I said, "Okay." I did that work. I called them. But they were mailing it to the plumbing company. They never told me when it was coming. It was 5 to 10 days I was without hot water. That was when I found out that I wanted to get another company.
She called me because Home Warranty of America ended up closing my claim. She said, "Why did you close your claim?" I said, "I'm just trying to find someone that's going to come and look at it because I don't even know that's the issue, and I've been without water for five days and a whole nine." So, miraculously, because I told her all that, she sent someone out that day. Miraculously, he just came out here and fixed it and left.
But then, a month later, the hot water heater went out again. If they would have done an inspection the first time, then I probably could have got it fixed the first time, and then done. But they ended up just replacing it, which was fine. But they said that the drip tray wasn't covered and they weren't going to put it up to code. It was just half done, sadly. But I have hot water now, so that's all it matters.
Then the second claim I had in the same room, in the laundry room, there was water leaking in between my walls because a pipe had broken in two spots. The person that they sent out for that was a part of the same company, which I was really unhappy about. But this guy was really nice. He came out. He said that he needed to go buy a camera to see where the issue was because he didn't want to have to break into the wall unless he had to, which made sense.
I had to wait for him to go get a camera and come back. When he came back and got the camera, he showed me right where it was, took pictures and videos. The company told me that they don't pay for them to get into the wall, but they will pay to cover up the wall. I said, "Okay, that's fine, whatever it is." He came here and was here from 11:00 AM until 8:00 PM, finally got it taken care of, and he left the hole open, which was fine, because somebody else needs to close it. I know he's not a carpenter. He said, "All right, have a great day. See you later." But then, the company called me back and said, "We need to collect $50 from you." I said, "For what?" And they had already taken the $100 deductible.
They said, "It was to open the wall." I said, "But I was told the opening the wall is covered, closing the wall isn't?" She said, "No, it's the opposite. You have to submit another claim to them to get your wall closed up whenever you get an invoice for that and we don't cover them opening up the wall." I said, "I'm not paying for it because you guys took all the time you did. I've had a terrible time with your company." She said, "I understand. If he didn't tell you, then we'll let it go." I said, "Good." That was on a Friday.
That next day, somebody from Home Warranty company called me and said, "Did they come out and fix everything?" I said, "Yeah, they did. He said he submitted everything off to you. So, I'm just hoping everything's covered." She said, "Wait, he already did the work?" I said, "Yeah, everything's done. I'm just waiting to get it closed off now. I was gonna call you guys on Monday since it was Saturday." I guess he wasn't supposed to do all the work right away. He was supposed to submit it to Home Warranty, make sure it was covered, then come back to me and tell me what I was gonna have to pay the difference. He never did. He just did all the work and left. She said, "I'll take care of it on this end. He wasn't supposed to do that." I said, "I need to get this hole covered up because it's a two-foot by six-inch hole in my laundry room."
She said, "Yeah, that's no problem. What we'll do is you just submit a claim for the carpenter worker. We keep it open for you. You don't have to pay the deductible again because you already paid it for the original issue. So, you don't have to pay them too. You just send it to us and send it back." I said, "Okay, that's no problem. Can you guys give me a couple of companies to call?" She said, "Okay, let me look." Came to find out once again there were no carpenters in the area that works with Home Warranty of America. I said, "Okay, whatever." She said, "I guess in this scenario, since there are no carpenters in your area, you can use your own and you just submit the invoice."
My carpenter that came out said, "They're only going to cover the wall or whatever it may be, but like painting and everything else won't be covered." I said, "That's fine. It's no big deal." I submitted the whole invoice for that and sent it. Now, I'm getting denials saying that they're not going to cover for this because he wants to put an access door there so that he can get in if ever a plumber needs to do repairs, it can get done. I know that's not covered, but the drywall and the labor to get it done would be because that's what it says in my contract.
They told me that I need to submit another invoice from him. Unfortunately, because of unseen circumstances, he can't come out any longer to give me another broken-down invoice. Now, I'm just stuck in this rabbit hole with him. I still have the hole in my wall, nobody's covered it. There's no carpenter that can come and help me. I really don't recommend HWA to anyone. If anyone wants to use this company, it's a lot of work on your end. It's not like you pay your deductible and your hands are clean. I was calling the warranty company and I was chasing down the plumber. It was all on me, which made it very frustrating.

I've been happy with Home Warranty of America. I've had a few times I've had to call and it’s generally never a problem. I get referrals. I call plumbers and they call me back. Everything works great every time I've had to use them. However, I had two situations that struck me poorly. I had an issue about a year ago where they billed another account that was on file which caused all kinds of problems. There was a reason I didn't want them to use that account, which is why I gave them a credit card that they should be using. I get it that somebody in their queue messed up. But it shocked me because I asked them how they could go and bill. They should have called me first and ask permission. They should have verified what the issue was. That caused some issues at my bank that I had to unwind. It all got fixed in the end.
Then recently, we discovered that our sump drainage line was backing up. We made a claim and we found out that we didn't have that coverage. I have a platinum plan, so I thought I had the best and the most expensive one that covers everything. The rep said that would be a rider. I asked how much it would cost me if I had that. He said it'd be $9 extra a month. They never upsold me nor told me about it.
I had to pay $479. Somebody showed up, blew a hole in the line, then gave me a quote of $1,000 to do something. That was ridiculous, especially since I didn't have insurance now. I said that I'll just dig the hole myself and lay a new drainage pipe, which may not be what to be done long term as a home warranty provider. But because we didn't have this rider, I've eaten the $479, which, by the way, $90 a year, times three and a half to four years, would have at least been a good ROI and breakeven on the expense.
It would have made me happy if there were additional expenses that HWA covered to do this thing right. The first quote was $3,500 to lay new PVC all the way down the street. I said no and that there should be a cheaper way. I'm the homeowner, as a partner of the insurance company. Insurance companies like to control their costs, by us working together, having some skin in the game. A $100 premium or deductible would have done that. But HWA didn't come through.
This whole issue is about communications and sales, and not even knowing I didn't have anything, and I still don't have that coverage. What could have been done better is as the policies change, it's emails and stuff sent to customers saying the policy is right there, clearly in the ranking, and they show checkmarks that say this isn't covered. In which case, they failed to call the customers to get additional coverage.
HWA should do a better job of upselling to inform me because I've given them a wonderful way to upsell and get more revenue. But if they don't have the team in place that's doing that, and if I was the CEO, I’d say that it's a lot easier to get additional revenue from existing clients who like the warranty and make sure they're totally covered and protected, as opposed to firing the warranty and then spend marketing money to find new clients. If home warranties are disposable, and they come and go, and most basically only last a year, then so be it. I'm a consumer who's generally been satisfied, but as of right now, is somewhat dissatisfied.

I have not been happy with Home Warranty of America. Our air conditioning-heating went out in February. HWA could not find a unit. After several weeks, they finally let the contractor find one for us instead. But it was almost two months without air conditioning and heating. We had a leak in our washing machine and when we called HWA, they had no service provider in our area. So we ended up having to call on our own and we paid the $75 to have somebody come out. Then it turned out that they would not pay for the whole job because we had to call on our own. But we had to call on our own because our garage was being flooded and HWA would not help us.
We also had a claim for the freezer fan that's out in our refrigerator. Sears came out three Mondays ago, and it's still not fixed because they can't find the part. HWA don't have any other contractors to work with to have options. So we have not had a good experience. I'm kind of waiting for some time to pass and I'm probably going to go back to a different company as soon as things kind of settle down.
When you are in a situation and you've called HWA for about six times, you always get somebody different. Nobody calls you back when they say they're going to investigate. It gets really annoying when they say, “I'm sorry, you're having this experience. I understand.” They say this over and over and over. It gets almost patronizing because no, they don't understand. Because it's not happening to them. I understand why they have to say that. I even asked them not to say that again but they still did. It was very irritating to me.

Whoever I dealt with at Home Warranty of America made it easy for me. They were pretty understanding about everything that was going on. They don't really hound with 1,000 questions on every little thing that was wrong. I got my money quickly and I was able to start the renovations.

Considering the pandemic last year, I had a little trouble getting somebody out there, but I don't think that was truly Home Warranty of America's fault. Other than that, they’ve been good. They replaced my microwave because it stopped working. They had to come and fix my washing machine too. The washing machine was the one that I really had the issue with because when it goes out, I can't wash. It took them two weeks to get someone out then once the repair guy got out there, it took another two weeks for him to get the part that he needed. I can't blame it on Home Warranty of America though. It was the circumstances that caused it to happen. So overall, I'm satisfied. Considering expenses for your home can be very expensive and come in untimely times, having Home Warranty was definitely a help. I could have had to replace that washing machine or find someone to hook it up.

I had my washing machine replaced one time and I had a hard time with that. When I put the claim in, Home Warranty of America said to get a new washing machine. I kept talking to different people because I never could get anywhere with it. They supposed to have passed the information on every time I call them, update them, or talk about it. Somehow, it got mixed up. The phone number that I told them to always call me at, they called me on another phone. My other landline phone wasn't working properly so I told them to always contact me on my cell phone and I gave them my cell phone number.
People came out and said I needed one and they'd put it in, but I wasn't contacted. I was supposed to do the rest of the work. I tried calling Home Warranty of America and they said that I had to choose another washer and then they have to call me and set up an appointment to come and put it in so that's where the misunderstanding came in. They had the wrong phone number. The people that were to come and install the washing machine also had the wrong phone number and they couldn't get in touch with me. But they didn't tell the home warranty that because I kept calling them and they were saying that they didn't know what was going on. I asked them what phone number they were trying to call so they told me and that was not the correct phone number.
In the meantime, I got some not so nice people on the phone. Everybody else was saying that I have to call back or they don't know what happened. Finally, I got one person that sounded young and she went to investigate everything I told her. She asked other people, she took a long time, and that was how it got solved. Once that happened, they put it in, and everything was okay.
I also had another issue, but it wasn't a big deal. I had a faucet that was more expensive than the one the contractor want to put in. They said they only pay $120 for a new faucet and mine was 200 and that they don't usually replace it with the same one. But I would like to have the same one I have. They called somebody at Home Warranty. The rep said that since I was a good customer, they would do it this time. Then recently, the furnace was not working properly when I first turned it on. The technician came out and went down to see what the problem was. He found the problem and he fixed it.

Hello Bernice. Thank you for the time you took to share this detailed review. We are sorry for all the hustle and frustration you had with your washing machine.
