    It was a bit stressful to kinda go through the claims process for the water heater. There was a lot of back and forth. The HWA people were telling me something different than my service provider. I also had a problem with my faucet and my shower. So, the process has not always been smooth.

    I had a microwave issue that started in January. The first time HWA sent somebody out, it went well. But then the microwave went back out, and when it finally went down, it took about four months to get it resolved. They said they didn't have a technician in my area to work on it. They allowed me to go out and find a technician, which I thought was odd. They were supposed to be the warranty company and they tasked me to do that. I found someone that they had originally given me seven months before and was still contracted with them to do the work. We finally got that resolved. They gave me a payout so I went out and bought another one.

    When it came to my washer, HWA sent somebody out, it didn't work. They recommended that they give a replacement. They gave me a date of December the 11th that it would be delivered. I didn't know at the time that deliver would mean it'd be delivered to the warehouse so I didn't get a callback. I had to call them several times and they said that I need to wait three to five days after that before it's going to be delivered to me and I would get a call from the individual company, GE. Well, that didn't happen. I called back and they gave me a date, 28th of December, instead of being the 11th, it got pushed back, and they gave me a number for GE saying it was the order number. Well, it wasn't the order number.

    When I called GE, they had no clue about the number. Somehow I ended up getting all the way routed by getting information from HWA that I was talking to Home Depot. I asked to speak to a manager and they said they didn't have one available. They said they have to put it in. Every time I called back, they said they're gonna go back to purchasing, and it takes 24 to 48 hours. I didn't get a callback within that time, then I called back again. I was constantly waiting 24 to 48 hours. All during that time, we don't have a washer in the house. I put about $300, $400, $500 just in washing clothes in a commercial washer.

    After they didn't give me a call on the 28th, I waited a week before I called and they didn't get back with me. I got a lady on Thursday, Monica, saying that the case was transferred to her and she would call me back the next day. Well, I didn't hear from her on Friday as well as on Monday. Yesterday, I called and got a guy named Roy. He was excellent. I've spoken to him twice and he just happened to be the technician to answer the phone. There was one other individual and he was good as well. Those are the only two customer service reps that HWA had that showed like they care.

    They would tell me at the last minute that they're going to give me a payout after they promised me that it was going to be there. When they agreed to do the washer, I said I needed to go in and purchase a dryer. I asked them if they could purchase it and I just pay the price and they could deliver it. They agreed, but I paid an upgrade fee for it to get different colors because they wanted to give me white when I didn't have an original white washer. But when they tell me now that I'm going to get a payout and I can't get a washer for $612, that's crazy. I'm forced now to go out and spend about two grand out of my pocket to find a washer and dryer to try to get it done.

    Then about a month before my policy was to end, I provided them a credit card to renew my warranty. At some point, I got an email that came about a month later saying it wasn't there. I had a zero balance on my card. I had already upgraded my card with the new numbers before I gave it to them. The gentleman that reached out the purchasing for me to get it looked at it and said my account is good. Last night, I got a second notice saying that they've been trying to reach me, but via email. They called me when they wanted me to renew it, however, why not call me to say they were having trouble with my card. And so now, I may not even be covered for the current policy.

    Customer service has been pitiful and I'm frustrated. Communication is terrible as well and they don't reach out when I call and trying to get answers. It's just painful that I have to go through so much just to try to get things done on several claims I've had. I'm dissatisfied. When I first started, they were like Johnny-on-the-spot. I was generally getting called back whenever I put a claim in. I called them up, and that day, somebody came out because it was so early in the morning. Then, all of a sudden, it started going downhill. I still believe in the concept of a home warranty. Right now, I'm just having a hard time with HWA. I thought American Home Shield was terrible and it was hard to get that low. But right now, I'm feeling like that and I don't get it.

    I moved to my new purchased home about 4 months ago. As part of the home purchase, I received a year of this home warranty. I recently called for service because my water heater was not working. Plumber came out after 9 days (as they have been swamped with service calls). He finally shows up, takes a picture of the water heater and tells me this is an old water heater and it needs to be replaced because parts are not available any longer. He leaves, does not try to fix anything or inspect anything. He did try to reset the unit

    The very next day, I call Home Warranty of America and they tell me my claim is denied because the water stopped working because it has not been maintained. I'm almost sure the plumber that came out does not want to work on my unit, maybe he was busy with service calls that pay better than what HWA pays them. I got a second opinion through another company, after almost 1.5 hours, it was determined that the pilot is not working on my unit, but cannot be changed because parts are unavailable and water heater needs to be replaced. I asked HWA to send another technician for a second opinion, and they said the decision is final. This company is a scam. Why do people get home warranty insurance when they purchase a new home? for these specific occasions. If you want a reliable and fair warranty, do not purchase this one.

    Back in March of last year, my refrigerator broke and I didn't realize that it was covered by Home Warranty of America. I bought a new one and months later, I made a claim. It was a couple of months ago but I never finished it because they wanted me to pay someone to come out and diagnose the old refrigerator instead of sending one out since it was an older claim. I paid somebody but they didn't give enough information and I kept getting the runaround. HWA asked a couple times for more information from the person who came in and diagnosed the refrigerator, but I couldn't get anything. So, I stopped contacting.

    I submitted claims to Home Warranty of America for several different things and they didn't respond to me. It was the time when COVID started. I couldn’t get through and I had to pay for stuff myself. I put them for reimbursement. Home Warranty of America was nasty at first then I put it on paper. They called me and said they would look into it but I still haven't heard from them regarding those claims.

    I had another claim and thank goodness that the company Home Warranty of America assigned it to took the lead. I was able to get my furnace fixed. If I had to wait for Home Warranty of America, I’d still be waiting. It took me 10 months to get a part for a stove from them. They kept telling me the part was being ordered. They said the appliance place that was fixing it didn't receive it then they said they received it. It was back and forth.

    I've submitted several claims through Home Warranty of America and the most recent one was the water heater. It was a four-month turnaround. I wanted the water heater flushed, which was a very common thing. The plumber that I hired to come out said that it was too old and he couldn't fix it. He couldn't flush it. It's got all this buildup. So, I called Home Warranty of America. I put in the order and they never sent anybody out. I called back to talk to them. It took forever for their plumber to be able to come out and look at my water heater. We got into a back and forth but finally, I got a new water heater. But it wasn't working and it had to be replaced. I didn't wanna go with anybody that HWA had recommended or they would put to do the job, so I got the payout instead and then had the job done myself. They covered a very small portion. It's been a rough experience with them but they can do better.

    My deductible has gone up. Then I had two instances where I had two separate repairs on two different things, and I was out of pocket $600 plus the $100 deductible each time. HWA was very fishy on how the exact same amount I had to pay out of pocket. They don't cover keeping up with safety standards. It's a hit or miss, depending on who I get and the situation. I'm not happy with them and not sure if I trust them.

    It's usually relatively easy to go online or call Home Warranty and put in a problem. Within a day or two, somebody would call to schedule an appointment. Most of their vendors lately have been really great. We had an electrician that I really liked and a plumber that I called out recently on my own for other problems that weren't covered by the home warranty. It was nice to have good vendors. A couple of years ago, I had a problem with an appliance repair person. He took my deductible but told me that I needed to contact the manufacturer. They couldn't do anything to help, which was really frustrating. I told Home Warranty about that and they sent me a refund. Hopefully, they knocked off that vendor.

    Home Warranty is worth it more as an insurance against anything that goes wrong with your house. It's almost like a budgeting tool. If something major like my water heater breaks, I wouldn't know if I'm actually saving much or coming out even. But it's nice having that peace of mind that most things are covered by the warranty. Home Warranty is really nice to have because my husband and I are totally not handy whatsoever.

    I've had several issues that Home Warranty of America took care of in the home. They were very prompt taking care of the issues that I had. They were very efficient. With the air conditioner, it was a little iffy at first. But that was also through Corona, when everything got shut down. The supply chain got messed up, so that wasn't really their fault. But anything other than that was taken care of immediately. I had an electrical issue, it was taken care of within days. And that was on my schedule. I called in on a Friday, the rep called me back on Saturday, the repairmen were there Wednesday to fix it because that was my day off. Everybody that HWA has sent to the house has been amazing.

    Everybody should have a home warranty. I had to have the whole air conditioning unit replaced. If I didn't have the warranty, it would have cost me big bucks. It cost me $2,000 out of pocket. What I had to pay for were things that I would have had to pay for anyway, that I knew needed repaired. Like the shut off on the outside of the house needed moved, which I haven't had done, which they did when they replaced the unit. I am more than pleased.

    When I bought my new property, the homeowner did not want to do an in-depth inspection on major appliances. Part of the negotiation is that they would purchase a one year home warranty policy for me on the major things like the HVAC, fridge and dishwasher. That was purchased by them in my name. I called the HVAC person before COVID hit and they dropped the ball a bit, as probably did everybody in America or the world. But then, they pick right back up to send someone out here. It wasn't even my air conditioner unit that caused the leak. It was actually the unit from the girl upstairs. But I went ahead and had my unit serviced while he was here. And then, I used it for a plumber. On my to-do list, I will call them about my doorbell time. It's not working.

    The HVAC company's work was fine. They were good. But I loved the plumber. It was Eagle Plumbing. He owned the business, which showed me he gave a crap about his business. He was super polite, "Yes, ma'am. No, ma'am," wore a mask, and all but bowed to me as he backed out of my apartment. Super nice guy. Because of that, I have kept his card up here on my bulletin board.

    When I got the breakdown of my policy, it even covers my microwave, refrigerator, washer and dryer. For $100 service call, you can't beat it. That's how much you would pay anyway, then Home Warranty of America covers anything above that. But when it comes to things like an HVAC unit or a hot water heater, that's going to be way more of a chomp than the year we call for the service calls. It was a good deal. I probably wouldn't have thought to get it because I would have thought that my homeowners would have covered things. But this actually covers the equipment inside of your home, which you don't think about budgeting for or, as a single female, even checking on. It's worth it.

    I had a claim when my downstairs heater went out. I called HWA and they gave me one appointment. The guy didn't call me within 72 hours so they gave me another guy. He got in contact with me properly and scheduled an appointment. He came out and identified our problem as being a blower. That same day, he turned the claim in to HWA, who approved the claim. Within four days, he came back and replaced the blower.

    The other claim was when we had some issues with electricity. We had a light fixture that kept shorting out and, in addition, we found out that we were having a problem with some wall sockets that were not charging in our kitchen and downstairs in the crawlspace. The electricians scheduled an appointment with us quickly and they came out. They located the problem with the wall sockets. It appeared that the previous owner had connected a line to go down from our kitchen and he extended it down into our crawlspace. Then he had built a veranda and he had put another socket and extended line out to there.

    After seeing that the fixtures weren't holding the charge, then they found that under the veranda, the outlet socket down there filled with water and that was what the problem was. They replaced that connection and that brought our lights back on in our kitchen. They're coming out to replace the fixture in the bedroom closet because it was determined that that was a fixture problem and not an electrical system problem.

    I've had a couple of other cases last year where we had contractors come out for our dishwasher and our washing machine. They found out that the washing machine was not a real problem and that they didn't need to replace the part. But the technician that came out left the part and said if we have that problem go out, he would come back and repair it with no future charge. On the dishwasher, the motor went out and the guy replaced the motor and got our dishwasher running back. Everything has been going real fine. I’ve been very impressed with HWA and their service, communication, and working through any problems we have with contractors. They're very attentive to our needs.

    I had a leak in the ceiling in one of my bedrooms. The young man came over and he found a place up there where there had been rodents. I had rodent people come out and there was no rodents up there presently. But it probably wasn’t rodents because it was a huge leak. So there wasn't enough assessment. I didn't even call him back because I didn't have confidence that they looked if there was an air conditioning problem. So I had to get somebody else to come out and pay for it myself. We're still working on it to solve the problem. But this was the only time in the 10 years that I've had any kind of issue with not having any confidence that it was addressed.

    My experience has not been that great. It takes months and months for the claim to go through and a service repair to come. When my AC stopped working, I gave Home Warranty of America a call six times or more, but it took three months for it to get repaired. My washing machine was the same thing as well. I didn't have a washer for four months. On the other hand, the contractor that came to my house for my AC was good, and the same goes for the washer. When I told them it took forever, they both said the same thing that the insurance company is the problem here. I agreed with them because I had the same issue

    Home Warranty of America should communicate better. They should give us a callback and tell us, "This is happening right now. This is in process." It's blind. We don't know anything that's going on, so we call them every single day and there's no progress. It's hard to talk to customer service as well.

    We're trying to get our refrigerator fixed and we've been calling since two days ago. We have been getting flipped back and forth from Home Warranty of America to GE Appliance and nobody has come out to fix our problem. They don't communicate with each other. We called on Monday and the claim was supposed to be all set up but it wasn't. It's ridiculously terrible and we’re probably going to cancel if they don't fix something. We've been paying for over four years for HWA and we've never used it. Then, when we try to use it, it's a joke.

    We called the Home Warranty company and instructed them that we had no heat when the temperature was probably in the 30s. They contacted a company that, to us, was not local, and one that we obviously never heard of, to come out and look at our furnace. Then we had to wait while the approval was going through to get the furnace to be replaced. We had to contact our Realtor, who then contacted a person that she deals with at the Home Warranty company to get somebody out here to get a new furnace. In the meantime, we had no heat for a period of four to five days when it was very cold.

    I have this warranty deducted monthly from our checking account. I noticed that it went from $30 a month to $52 a month. That is a considerable difference. I called to find out why and the person I spoke to said that it's not going to stay that way and she would have a promotions person call me. My call was transferred three times to this department, and then this department, and then the promotions department. The lady came back and said they can only call me, I can't call them. I have yet to have a promotions person. My feelings are if I don't call and complain, then that's what I pay.

    They need to be upfront and honest about what is what you expect of them and what they intend to do for you. Such as in the case of our furnace, we had a Lennox, and they gave us a brand that I researched and we've never heard of. Then the people that they choose to represent them as their service fleet is less than desirable. The company did not have a part. In order for our furnace to have a guarantee on it, they had to put the part in from the company. Then we had to wait again for them to get a part from the company. We deal with a local heating and cooling company, and they say that that is preposterous, the furnaces they put in have to have the parts readily available for customers. Unfortunately, I have chosen to go with Home Warranty for another year.

    All the contractors from Home Warranty of America were smooth. Most of them were probably new business owners but they were looking to build clientele, so they went with the warranty companies to generate customers or work. But they all seemed fine and I didn't have any problems with any of them. I submitted several claims to HWA which include the garage door. The spring broke and the door was not able to be opened.

    Submitting a claim tends to be pretty simple. There was only a couple of times I've had a hard time with it. When I had a claim for the pool pump, there was a lot of back and forth on, “No, we don't cover it. Yes, we cover it.” The customer service rep wasn't familiar with that part of the program. But it was not a normal thing that it became a little bit of a challenge. Anyone I've ever talked to was very pleasant on the phone. But HWA should continuously educate the customer service reps and making sure they're up to date on changes and different plans that would help in situations like with my pool pump. Overall, I've had a good experience. I have recommended them to several friends. But home warranties are pricey. It seemed that over the years, HWA kept increasing the prices. The $75 service fee is fair but the annual costs are high.

    When I signed up with Home Warranty of America, it was awesome. I got all good feedback. But the problems we've had was not being able to understand what the people there were saying because they didn't speak our language very well. So there's a language barrier. When our refrigerator went out, we went with the cash option instead of letting them send us a refrigerator because we wanted to pick our own out. But two weeks went by and still nothing. It took me almost two months to get a refrigerator.

    Everything worked out great with the last claim we had for our well pump. They sent us a plumber twice for our well pump, and we couldn't make them understand that a plumber and someone that works on your well pumps are different. But once we finally got through to whoever we talked to there, it was awesome. We hired our own well guy to do the job. We got that okayed with Home Warranty of America and the plumber charged us $1,600, but we only got $800 out of it. Home Warranty of America needs to do more investigating and getting the right people for the right job.

    Home Warranty of America did a good job at replacing my dishwasher that went out in the first year I had them. So, I renewed my coverage. The claim submission experience could be a little better. They say that in the area I live in, company-wise, they're very short-handed on who they can use to provide the services to their customers. The only company that they use to service this area is Sears which is terrible when it comes to their appliance repairs. HWA almost lost me as a customer after the first year because of what I got put through by having to use Sears Appliance over the dishwasher. They made things a little bit better though and after three weeks of battling with the situation, they cashed me out and allowed me to purchase my own dishwasher.

    The Sears techs did not know what they were doing. They came out to replace parts on my gas range top and they didn't even ask if it was propane or natural gas. They just diagnosed it, ordered the parts, and when the parts came, they put them in. I went to the kitchen later that evening and turned my burner on. The flames shot up at least 8 inches in the air. My hair is shoulder-length and if I hadn't jumped back, I would have burned my hair and my face. I told HWA that the Sears service guys will never set foot in my house ever again and that if they don't have another way to offer me to use the warranty, then I'd be canceling.

    HWA told me that I can do the cash-out option each time. But, what I would have to do is choose my appliance company, send them out, pay the $100 deductible, figure out what's wrong with the item, have them submit the invoice, and then Home Warranty of America would determine whether or not they would replace it, or pay for the parts to be ordered and fixed. This is what I've done over the last two years because we had that issue with Sears. When I was able to bring out my own appliance repair person and submit the information to HWA, things have been perfectly fine.

    I had my chosen appliance repair person come out and fix the range. They ordered the proper parts to switch it back to propane then it worked for another year. Then, my 18-year old oven stove decided to go poof. When that happened, I did the same thing. The same tech came and he estimated what was wrong with the range. The cost was going to be over $800 and I told HWA, "You're talking an 18-year-old stove. Why would we put $800 for the parts into a stove that I can go out and get one for $1,500? That doesn't make any sense." So they switched me over to the department that handles the cash-outs. The make and model of my stove sells from $1,400 to $3,000. HWA treated me very fairly and I was very impressed. The gentleman sent over the estimate and HWA got back in touch with me and said they were willing to cash me out for $2,500.

    HWA gives me a choice between a paper check which can take up to three weeks or go with this company they work with called Tango which will send me a link where I can choose the gift card that I would like to have to purchase my new equipment. Tango deals with Home Depot and a bunch of other companies. I can go shopping for what I want, choose my stove, go back online, choose my gift card for where I'm going to purchase, and then things are instant. My gift card was there within three hours with $2,500. I do my order, walk up to the register, show them my phone and the girl there scans the barcode and puts the reference number in the register. That wipes off the gift card and the money goes straight to Home Depot. Then, my item is ordered and I set up a delivery date. The first two times I used HWA were not in my favor. But, they made a very good comeback.

I said, “I don't really have six weeks to go without a washer.” They said okay and rather than spend six weeks looking for parts for it, they cut a check for a replacement in the equivalent price range, which worked for me.

    Home Warranty of America was recommended to me and I checked it. They seemed to have a good reputation and when I called, they gave me a fairly good price. I've only had to use it once and I'm getting a little antsy that I’m paying this but when I used it, it helped out a great deal. One of my pipes on my gas furnace was blocked and I wasn't getting any gas. So, I wouldn't get any heat. I called HWA and they were planning on sending somebody a week later. I called them back and said that it was cold out and I had no heat. They told me that I should have said that it was an emergency and I was a little put out about that. It didn’t occur to me that if it was 20 degrees outside and you have no heat, that you have to tell somebody that you need it right away. They didn't understand that I needed it right away. That was a little irritating but it wasn't bad.

    HWA sent somebody that day so it worked out all right. The repair guy looked at it and said that the pipe was stocked up. He unstocked it and sent the thing in, and I paid $79. It didn't take any time at all after he got here. I was worried that I needed a new heater and then, it was just that and I was very relieved. The experience was great and HWA took care of my needs.

    When I bought my house, it had HWA then I renewed it. The only problem I had is when I tried to get my furnace fixed. I called them up and told them that my furnace was going out. The guy said that they didn't have technicians in this area, that I could find somebody and they would reimburse me. That was the only time that I called but that was what they said. When I got my own contractor and they said what was wrong with it, HWA didn't want to pay it. They only want to pay a fraction of it. The reason they said that was because it wasn't one of their contractors. So I'm sitting here after two and a half months and I have not got my furnace fixed.

    My overall experience has been horrible. As a matter of fact, I'm going to cancel my policy and I’d tell others not to buy it. I've called many times and I get put on hold then disconnected. They said, “We're going to take care of it,” but nobody's taken care of it. This has been one of the worst experiences I've ever had with a home warranty company. They can’t stay in business like this. I was getting ready to write a letter to my attorney general about the problems I'm having.

    Our pipeline is located at the end of the house and Home Warranty of America didn't want to cover that because they said it was in our backyard. But I show that I have external plumbing because we have the Platinum plan. I kept telling them to send another technician so they can tell them that it's not in the backyard. I have a corner house so the backyard is nowhere near where my pipeline was coming from. It was a pipeline that's connected from the house to our storage shed. But that was the only issue I had with HWA and other than that, everything has been great with them. In my most recent claim, something wasn’t working on our garage door and it was making a loud noise. The contractor fixed it and it’s working great now.

    The renewal with HWA was really difficult. I tried to do it online and it said it was not able to do it even though all the links were there. I called them and then they signed me up. Then, I noticed that a week or two later, my money wasn't taken out of my account. I called them up and I renewed again but I noticed that my money wasn't out again. I called them and they told me to just submit it to their office. Then, I had to wait for five days and they finally sent me the paperwork. I found out I had to go through all this because my microwave broke down and I tried to do a claim. They said they were having some issues with my account. It was a pain but everything is squared away, I hope. A contractor is coming to look at my microwave, finally.

    HWA gives a pretty good deal for the price and as far as the claims go, I have no issues and people show up when they need to. We had a guy come in to fix a part in my pool. It was fine. The only part I did not like is it took a long time for them to finally come out and fix it. But other than that, when they came and fixed it, it was fast.

    I've had mostly alright experiences with HWA. When there's a part that says they're covered, they seem to do a pretty good job. But there were a lot of phone calls back-and-forth and follow up. When I first got it, water softeners were included in the coverage. Now I found out that they're not so that's a detriment in my perspective. They most recently have come look at my dryer. I was trying to submit the claim through the website and that didn't work very good. I ended up calling in. They scheduled the service and the service guy showed up when they said they were going to.

Submitting a claim is straightforward and the reps try their best to answer as quickly as they can. The contractors are good but I wish that some of their selections were better such that if one doesn't come up, they have to look for another one. HWA’s alternatives aren't the best but they do great work when they are here. I've recommended the company to many of my friends because they've always asked. Having a protection plan is very valuable, which is why a lot of my friends are envious because when I have a problem, I always say I have a warranty on it. It's not that costly per month anyway so it's worth it at the end of the day.

    Claims through Home Warranty of America can be challenging at times. We're in lower Alabama, so it's kind of southwest corner and is about three miles from Dothan. They're going, "Where's Dothan?" While Dothan has a pretty good-sized city population, it's tough sometimes to get really good craftspeople out here. The air conditioners were the first thing they started working on and they'd come out here and charge it up, and then it wouldn't work. They'd come back and, "Well, looks like we leaked some Freon. We'll just put a little more in. You should be all right." I'd say, "What the hell is going on here? A refrigeration system's a balanced system. It does not leak coolant. So why are you having to come back? If you do it the first time right, you shouldn't have to come back." It finally got to the point where they replaced an air conditioning unit because they couldn't fix it. It was tedious. You had to keep going through that over and over.

    Then, the replacement they're going to put in wasn't as high a quality as when they were replacing. When you've got a carrier system, they're putting in something that looks like it goes on a mobile home. I learned to complain the correct way, and once we got through the air conditioner thing, any of the further claims, we just told them right upfront, "No." Then, the adjuster got a bit more reasonable about it. So, it's better now, but it was a little rocky at the beginning. When it comes to replacements, I can give them model numbers, make and serial numbers. Whoever's on the phone should be able to recognize that, "This is a quality unit we're replacing."

    I made the mistake of adding some coverage that I didn't need once. We're on a septic system and they said, "Well, we can go ahead and do a septic pump." I went ahead and added that. About a year later, I've already re-upped once with the septic pump on it, and I don't have one. It was a challenge to get that undone. I had the renewal come up and the renewal person said, "Well, I don't do that." I said, "Well, can you forward me to the person who does?" The person went, "I really don't know." That was one time I threatened to let it lapse, and then he got it off.

    We talked about two big issues. Something I would suggest a new one to this sort of coverage would be to ask who their companies are. Who are they gonna call to come out and fix your machine say your air conditioning goes out. Are they going to have ABC Electric and Refrigeration come out here and fix it or are they going to do somebody that's been voted best in the area for the last 10 years? We never get those guys. We've seldom had the same company twice. But I've renewed with Home Warranty of America, so that means I must be fairly happy.

    I had made a phone call to HWA a couple of weeks ago. I had two voicemails on the recorded line and never heard anything back from that. But I also had a lapse in my coverage and the water heater’s working great now. I thought I had an issue with it but it turned out there wasn't. The last claim that HWA has fulfilled was an issue with our insta-hot water dispenser that I had initially filed back in February or March. It kept getting deleted and misrepresented to the service providers. That one was finally resolved in October. Over the last year generally, I have had an issue with responsiveness between the time of filing a claim and actually something occurring. Also, I'm really frustrated with the online platform. It's pretty much worthless. It doesn't even show claims that were canceled. It’s so basic that I prefer to call and talk to somebody and get a confirmation number.

    It's all been positive with HWA. We've had the coverage since I bought the house in the fall of 2016. I had a couple of things I couldn't figure out why it had billed for the year. I called the office and got someone. They answered my question and what they said would happen happened. We had an issue with one of their contractors. I couldn't get a straight answer from them and it was a major kind of a thing. I went to HWA and said, “You guys need to take this dude off your list. He doesn't show up. He doesn't do what he's supposed to do. I don't ever wanna use him again. Either you get me another contractor or I will get a contractor and take care of it from there.” They did what they were supposed to do and allowed us to use who we wanted to use.

    There was an issue with the dryer. I called and they got it taken care of. We asked to use the contractor we used before and that wasn't a problem. We also had a major plumbing issue and I called them. I had used the plumber through them for something else and I told them I wanted to use them. They said it was not a problem. Those people were Johnny on the spot. They told me exactly what they would cover and what they wouldn't which is exactly what the contract says. We had a little more out of pocket because we had to have cabinets taken out to get to the plumbing issue and that wasn't part of what they're covering. But with the work that they had to do, the plumber that came in was wonderful and the service call costs us literally nothing. It could have been a disaster had we not had HWA.

    I went with HWA for what they offered to have included in the contract and their pricing. We've got a well and septic and their coverage encompassed more of what we needed. We've filed tons of claims with them and the most recent one was for our furnace. It wasn't so good. Our heat went out and for 13 days. They could not find someone to come to us and we were in a 30-degree weather. We had to end up getting it fixed on our own and being out of pocket then submitting the claim and being reimbursed. Since we had to buy heaters in a house with nearly 14 space heaters, our electricity bill went up $100.

    The service ticket before was for my ceiling fans that were out. They resolved that but there was an issue with the representative probably not having a very good day. We had some horrible experience but they listened to the call and understood that the rep was completely inappropriate and wrong. The office of the president reached out to us and they took care of it and apologized. That was probably the only other negative experience I've had with them. Otherwise, they've been pretty good.

    Our dryer was not working and when I submitted a claim to Home Warranty of America, there was a part on backorder, which was understandable during COVID, so I was patient. The company that was assigned to it finally told HWA that they didn't know when parts were gonna come in. There was no ETA on it and HWA told us to wait. I was completely without a dryer for a good month and a half until they said that we couldn't wait any longer. So, they agreed to either give me a new dryer or a check for a refund for whatever it's worth.

    I'm going to a laundromat in the middle of COVID every week because I got two kids and tons of laundry. I asked what the process was for getting a dryer through GE because the model that they recommended was comparable but it was worth 800 bucks and they were only going to give me 500 cash. So, I'll go for the nicer dryer. It would take about two weeks to get a new dryer but it took month and a half. I would have taken the cash option. I even asked if I could get the cash off but they said no because the dryer had already been ordered. I called and escalated it. I was getting so frustrated. I couldn't get any cash nor a new dryer.

    The experience with Home Warranty of America was awful. They weren't sure that they could fix it. They said it wasn't the air conditioner and that there had to be an electrician called in. They weren't sure whether the electrician was on my dollar or their dollar. Time went by, so I called an electrician and when he came out, he billed me for $150 and said there wasn't anything wrong with the electric, it was the air conditioner. So, I called HWA back. They said I wasn’t supposed to pay for an electrician and I told them that I hadn't heard from them in three weeks. But I wasn't beating down the calling line was because it was fall and the air conditioner wasn't as important.

    Unbeknownst to me, they had emailed me that they had terminated the contract. I called them. I told them that we kept cutting cut off and then, I was on hold for 30 minutes. It was a couple of hours by the time I finally got on the phone with them. Then the call got terminated. Little did I know that they were hanging up on me. So, when it came time to renew, I didn't. I don't think anybody should be taken like that.

    It was a little bit of a hassle when I had to file a claim. It was a water heater that needed to be replaced. We ended up getting it done and the techs were awesome but I still ended up having to pay out of my pocket for it which sucked. I thought it was covered but they said updating it wasn’t.

    When we moved into the house, our HVAC died. I got reimbursed for the heater part. But the air condition part, there was a miscommunication, so it was never got reimbursed for. I got the separate invoice just like they have asked me to, but when I tried to send the invoice, it gets bounced off. I badly want to do it because I have the documentation a while ago and I submitted everything. But they wanted two specifics, one each for the furnaces and the second one for the coils for the air condition part, which I've got. But I like the services of HWA in general. I wanted to recommend it to my parents in Atlanta. I did it online and I went to their website. They have the coverage there. I also called and left a voicemail for the person who helped me renew my membership or the insurance policy, but I never got the return call.

    Overall, I would recommend HWA. They have excellent services. The guys come in and do small repairs, any kind of mechanical failures or electrical issues in your equipment and your appliances. I've been very happy with the service that we have received. It's a $100 down payment that you have to pay, but it’s a win-win situation. It's more of a convenience thing.

    Our experience with HWA hasn't been that awesome. The first problem we had was with the hot water heater. We finally ended up having to call a company we need here in town to get them to fix it after about five people had been out. The second problem we had was with a washing machine. They ended up having to replace the washing machine because they couldn't fix it. They did our dryer and it was wonderful. Then the other problem we had was with the refrigerator. It was new. We've called HWA and HWA sent a guy out, and he had no clue what to do with it. We called HWA and they sent somebody out and they didn't know what to do with it. It turned out it was the same repair people. We also had a pipe burst in our front yard. We didn't know whether it was covered or not. So we called somebody else.

    The repair people here are just not trustworthy. They're not good and one of the guys said they couldn't get anybody to come. The people that answer the phone when you call are also not very helpful. With the hot water heater problem, the guy said, "I don't know when we'll get somebody out there." I said that wouldn't work. He said everybody was gone. He said he'd have somebody out there tomorrow before 6:00. But nobody came. I called and they said they don't even have a report of it. Luckily, I took the name of the guy with whom I was talking to. I said he promised me. He said, "Ma'am, those are just estimated times that we can be there." I said, "It is not estimated if I take a day off from work, period." If I had to take a day off from work, which I understand I need to do to be able to meet a repairman, then I expect that repairman to come. I don't care if it's 9 o'clock at night.

    To submit a claim with HWA is the easiest thing. All I do is call and they take the information. However, it would be nice if some of their reps had more information on what they're doing. Their call center representatives aren't very knowledgeable about the English language sometimes. I had to hang up on a couple of them because I couldn't understand them. But, I usually have somebody out here within three to five days. They've come out to service my trash compactor. They've come out to do my stove because the pilot light went out and they fixed it. They've also done my plumbing in my bathroom. Now, I'm waiting on a microwave since February. They were supposed to send somebody out sometime this week. But I haven't heard from anybody.

    I called and reported a claim, everything seemed well. Repairmen came out in a few days. He stated the control board was broken. HWA sat on it and closed it. They apologized for their mistake, credited my account with $100 and resolved to fix the issue. We repeated this entire process with a new company (Sears). Sears came out, said the control board was broken. Sears stated there were no repair parts for my type of dishwasher. Since HWA has to pay for a new dishwasher, they are trying everything in their power to not pay. Now, because I won't pay even more for their plan, they claim they no longer need to do anything. I had their top diamond plan. I plan on taking this matter to court and hopefully prevent this from happening to other people.

    We've had to do several claims over the last few years with HWA and it's been all over the board. There have been people that have been really helpful, but then other times, they're not as helpful. We have two heaters in the house and we weren't considered a priority because we had a second heater in the house. The communication was not the best too. We ended up having no heat the whole month of December.

    I've been pretty happy with the people that we've had lately, Show-Me Services. There have been a couple of times where they've been out here more times than they should have been, but they eventually got it right, and that was what matters. There was one contractor that came out here and I ended up calling them back and talked to them about the situation, and then the lady called my wife a liar. I called Home Warranty of America and said they shouldn't work with these people and I don't want these people ever to come into my house again. Other than that, overall, the technicians are pretty good.

    There was a time where I couldn't call to set up a claim. The reason was we gotta use the online system ‘cause of COVID. I tried to use the online system, and for whatever reason, my account was freed up. I had to go to that connection and say, “My hands are tied, I literally can't do anything.” To me, the online stuff has been very convenient to do late at night or whatever when we discover a problem.

    We had a couple claims to Home Warranty of America. It went in September, and they never responded. So, I'll most likely gonna cancel them because they didn't follow through with their commitment of returning funds that were supposed to be coming back. It's past 60 days, and they keep losing receipts and invoices. I have one of the best policies that I have, and they've definitely changed over a year or two. One guy tried to get a check and wanted it in his name. He didn't want the company's name. They told me I gotta go get my own parts, and then they'd call. They'd come back, and then they'll put it in. I asked somebody else. He said, "You're not supposed to get your own parts, like a faucet or something or a repair. And then they come out and do it again. They're supposed to do that for you. That's the whole idea of the warranty.” So, that's kind of disappointing.

    I have been fighting with these guys since September and they keep losing the paperwork and the claim. It's really frustrating. It's not what it used to be. I told them, "You're supposed to refund me because I went out. I bought it." They're supposed to reimburse me for it. They said, "That's three to five weeks." That was September. Now we're in December, and I still didn't get a reply. I'm gonna look elsewhere. I'm done. I had them for three years, and they're still not doing what they're supposed to do.

    It was really easy to sign up with HWA through the agent. Then, we renewed our plan with them. We put in four claims over the year, only one did I have trouble with. It was a month-long process, trying to get Home Warranty of America to deal with the fact that nobody was calling me about the claim. There was something that happened and Home Warranty of America said it was their fault, not the contractor. They took responsibility for the fact that they messed up and I appreciated that. After they realized that they messed up, it was pretty quick to get that through.

    With the other three claims, I didn't have a problem getting ahold of somebody right away and getting something set up. We had holes in our furnace down in our crawlspace and we had to get that fixed. That was a lot of money. This one company that came out gave us a quote of 2,000. But I had a company outside of their people group that had quoted me 1,200. I really appreciated that they were willing to just allow me to go with somebody else and give me the payout. I really like that about them as well. I'm really happy with them. They're fair, quick and easy to deal with overall. I would definitely say to somebody looking for insurance, “Definitely go with these guys.” Even the people who came out to give me the estimate on the furnace, who wanted to charge an arm and a leg, said that this company that we deal with is one of the best.

    Sometimes, claims with Home Warranty of America can be simple. Sometimes, it can be very difficult. The claims itself go through, but the problem I have is with the people who render the services. The first company that we got in town that came for my AC didn't really do a good job. It was a back and forth on the same thing and they charged me all the time, and they couldn't really get the job done. Finally, when we got the second company, they were able to do it. Then now that I had it to come to my garage, it took almost an entire year for them to come get it down. I put in a claim, they came and checked it, I pay the $75, they went and never came back. It stayed that way for about three months. I called and they told me my claim disappeared in the system. I should blame Home Warranty of America for that because my claim is not supposed to get out of the system.

    We had to reactivate that claim, and then they came the second time. After buying two parts of my garage, the second person came and said, "Oh, no, those are not the parts that we needed for the garage." But they were the ones who made the evaluation and bought those parts. So that person left, and then finally the next person came and got it fixed. It took a while, but they got the job done.

    The problem is the reliability of who HWA partners with. If they partner with somebody, they should be very reliable. If they say they're coming to do this thing on this day, they should be there on that day. If they say, "This is what is wrong and we're getting this part for the services," they should do it right away. From HWA's part, they need to follow up after the service day to make sure everything was done right. And if not, then they should work on communicating with the service providers to make sure they get things done on time.

For that reason, we chose to stay with the company that's worked for us. The process of signing up with them is really easy. It's automatic renewal for us. There was once where there was an issue with the system where it didn't automatically renew us. When I called, they identified that that was an issue, and then they just backdated the renewal so that there wasn't a gap at that time.

    Our experience with their reps has always been pleasant. It's also really easy submitting a claim. Normally, I call and speak with a rep. They'll give me the number of whatever company that they're outsourcing it to. There had been some times where the date that they were coming out was not as soon as we'd like.

    When you call Home Warranty of America and you never get anyone, just like everywhere else and I don't know if it's because of the COVID. You just get these options and you push all these buttons. If you call first thing in the morning, you're on hold about half an hour. But if it's anything after that, it's pretty long. It also takes a long time to get things done with their contractors. Our home is in Bend, Oregon, so it's not like a ton of contractors are available and it usually takes a bit of a wait. But again, I'm not sure that because of COVID, they may have limited people working.

    If I call Home Warranty, I speak with someone, then they need to get ahold of this provider in our community. Sometimes, that part is what takes a long time. I've also had my personal experience calling the contracted person and they just have an answering machine. So I don't think it’s the insurance company's problem, it’s the other side. Other than that, I would love to speak with someone who can speak English clearly at Home Warranty. I usually get an Indian accent person and I have a hard time understanding someone who has a heavy accent. When I call them, I would ask my husband what the rep was saying and my husband would be able to translate a little better.

    I renewed with Home Warranty of America and my experience was good. Their sales reps have been all right and everything goes well when I call. But the people that they use don't seem to have a sense of urgency to get there. For instance, my hot water heater went out and was leaking all over my basement floor. So, my carpet was soaked. The guy came out a day or two after I called, which was great. But he told me I needed a new hot water heater, that he could order it, and he'd have it by Friday, which was a few days away.

    On that Friday, he was supposed to be at my house at 9:00 and when he didn't come, I called him. He said he had another job and he was not going to be out here for another week or so. Then, my blower on my heater went out and it was the middle of winter, so it was really cold. But again, the people couldn't come out for a week. I got four kids in the house and I can't have no heat. Since I'm in the construction business, I know a lot of people that own their own HVAC and plumbing businesses. So, I called them and asked if they could come fix it my heater. Then, I called Home Warranty and told them that I got someone that would come fix it. I gave them the company name and they said, right then and there, that they'd approve them. They told me to just send them their bill and I got reimbursed back for what I got done like I always have.

    All in all, I've never had one of Home Warranty's guy do the work whenever I have a claim because they've always been two weeks out. And being a family of six, everything that's gone out are stuff that we use daily. But work-wise and as far as getting things done, all the local businesses that I've used have been amazing. Home Warranty's reps also handled things very well in terms of dealing with the people that they requested who didn't come out.

    But they should have more variety of people that would come out to work on things. There was an instance when my oven went out and I called them. They got me on a schedule then, when I called the contractor and they scheduled my appointment, it was almost two weeks away. But I love my oven and I can't cook anything without it. So, I called Home Warranty again and they said they'd find someone else. They got Sears and they were supposed to come out on a Friday. I thought I could make that work for three days without having an oven, but then, they called me and said they had to reschedule until that following week.

    So, I called a local company in the town that I live in. We have a small appliance repair in our town and their guy said he could come over the next afternoon to take a look at my oven. So, I called Home Warranty and let them know. They said that was fine and to just have them send the bill. So, the tech came, said that the issue was on my heating element, and put it on order. And within two days, he was back in my house and he put in it. So, if Home Warranty could use small companies around town to branch out to, that would be good.

    Despite that, I'd tell anybody that buys a house to get some home warranty and I'd recommend Home Warranty. When my buddy bought a house, he didn’t buy a home warranty but I told him for almost two years that he needed to get it. And sure enough, his hot water heater went out and he had some plumbing issues. So, he paid a lot more than what he should have paid to do all the work. That's what the warranty is there for and we love it.

    Home Warranty of America had more information on their stuff than the other places. The questions I had were already on their files. They only had two different plans but most of it covered a lot of the stuff that I had a fear of breaking down or something. I was also interested in them because of the price. So far, I've done two claims. The first one was really good. They came out the next day and it was an easy process.

    The second claim was easy, but it didn't go as planned. The guy was late and when he showed up, I wasn't home but somebody else was home. The guy just sat in his car for a good 30 minutes before he even came in, while on top of that, he was already an hour and a half late. He just came and looked and he left. The claim wasn't approved so he didn't do anything. The guy didn't tell whoever was home anything. So I had to call the people to find out and the rep wasn't even gonna tell me like she had to tell the Home Warranty people. That was annoying. I was the one that had the problem so they should report their findings to me too.

    I had some issues with Home Warranty of America during my first year with them. I had a couple of claims that just didn't go well and their process was kind of convoluted. It was a little frustrating as well, but they were remorseful about the issues and gave me a great deal to re-sign. The renewal process was pretty simple, except for the fact that it wasn't clarified about everything that came with it. And I had to end up adding a couple more items in my home because the rep that I spoke with didn’t let me know that they won’t cover that. Aside from that, there doesn't seem to be a good line of communication between them and the companies that they refer to do the work. Each time that I've made claims, I've had to call the companies that they refer for the repairs to get on the schedule for myself and I wasn't called automatically from their company. But that’s all I don’t like. When I talked their reps, they were pleasant and professional.

I had to pay a large amount of the bill because they didn't cover the modification of it, and I didn't know that. They let me know and they explained why there had to be modifications. If the house is an older home and you have a home warranty, their modification parts should be covered. At that time, I had to pay $1,000. I thought I had a warranty.

    Home Warranty of America has been really understandable whenever we call. But we don't usually use them often, only when something major breaks, and they've been really helpful. I recently had a furnace that went out and we got that taken care of. So, I was happy. But they should provide more details on what parts they cover and what parts they don't cover. They should give a good explanation because if a part is connected to something, they don't cover that.

    Other than that, I'd recommend them because you never know when anything's going to happen. If you're going to sit there and you don't want to pay the big repair bill, the warranty helps out. When my furnace went out, it was getting cold in the fall and it got up to 50 degrees in the house. We needed to get it fixed and one company was dragging their feet and it took a while for them to give me a callback. But when I called them, they had a guy come out right away. So they helped me get someone out there fast.

    Currently have 2 claims that are over 2 months old and no resolution. For over 2 months each claim has supposedly been "escalated" to their team of professionals who find contractors in your service area with the promise of a call back within "24-72" hours. For these 2 months I have received no such call and have to call myself and receive the same song and dance of "escalation". When I ask to speak to this "escalation" team or someone that can assist me with more information I am greeted with the company line of "we are not allowed to transfer any calls, company policy".

    Today I call to check on the status of the claims to find out that one was "mysteriously" deleted/cancelled. So now we are back to square one with that claim. Should I mention that it is a septic tank that is spilling raw sewage into my yard, which is a health hazard. I suppose it is okay since we are in the middle of the 2020 COVID pandemic, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger right?

    I would suggest to anyone looking at HWA or any other warranty company, ensure they have enough contracted service providers to meet your needs, that you can speak with management when you are not being provided the service you are paying for and that if they cannot find a provider within a 72 hour time frame, you are authorized to find a provider yourself and it be guaranteed to be paid for 100%. This was the way my last warranty company worked, too bad they don't provide coverage where I currently live. Best of luck to new/future customers of this company.

    When we bought our house in 2017, we asked for a warranty. The seller included the warranty through Home Warranty of America and because of the ease at that time, we went with them. We just extended the warranty when that one year was up. Signing up was easy as it was a continuation. We had had a few little things here and there that Home Warranty came through on but they weren't excellent service. We had to go back and forth and go through different vendors. We've never really heard good things about any warranty company. We assumed warranty companies are all this way but we at least wanted to be covered if something big happened.

    We’ve had several claims. The ones that we remember the most had to do with our HVAC unit. We have two units and in 2018, one of them completely went out. We found out that the claim wasn't completely covered because the unit used the old Freon system. Home Warranty only replaced the unit itself and we were tasked to pay for everything that was underground. The pipes were replaced because no HVAC companies use that anymore. That was an additional three grand out of our pocket. That was not fun and I was shocked that Home Warranty didn't cover that.

    Also, when the first AC unit went out, Home Warranty sent a contractor and we paid $75. We never heard from them again. We had to go back and tell Home Warranty that we never heard from the contractor and they never scheduled anything to replace the AC unit. Home Warranty had to switch contractors then demanded the $75. It took us a month for them to reimburse us our first $75 for the first people that came out.

    The real pain point came earlier this summer. Our second HVAC went out. This HVAC is reaching 20 years old. We had problems with it and had to get it fixed. We knew it was going to eventually go out. We were anticipating that and it was one of the reasons why we kept the home warranty. We knew that we were going to have to pay for half of the cost. Home Warranty is going to only cover the unit itself and not the piping so we were prepared for that.

    The problem was this was in the heat of the summer of South Carolina and we could not get in touch with the home warranty. Home Warranty had shut down all of their client services and call centers due to COVID and no one was responding to us. It was 100 degrees upstairs and that was where our kids’ bedrooms were. It took Home Warranty weeks to finally get back to us. We were emailing and we got the automatic response of, “Our client services are down. Our call centers are down. We'll respond to you based on the need.”

    A bad AC unit with 100-degree weather was pretty urgent to us. Our kids were sleeping downstairs in the living room because it was too hot to sleep upstairs. This went on for weeks. Finally, Home Warranty got back to us, apologized, and sent someone out. The guy said our AC was shot and he was gonna submit a report that it needed to be replaced. There were a couple of things they could do to hold it over. But the guy said that was really just putting a Band-Aid on the problem and the unit was going to go out again.

    The contractor submitted the report then Home Warranty came back to us. Instead of doing exactly what they did the last time with the other HVAC unit, they said I could either pay $5,000 to replace the unit or they could give me $600 in credit. The circumstance was the same as the year before so that didn't make sense. That was just wrong. In the past, Home Warranty paid 3,200 for the entire unit. They put this arbitrary number out there and that was not going to cover anything. After that, we've been auto-renewing the policy. With COVID and virtual learning, it has not been on our high priority list to get a new company but we are definitely going to get a new one because that was it for us.

    Home Warranty of America is not great with claims and I have not had the best experience. I would never recommend them to anyone. Overall, we have been disappointed at the inconsistency in what they will cover and what they won't. We had a couple of contractors when the claims were for little things that went out like the dishwasher and those were fine. But when it came to major appliances, we kept getting the runaround.

    HWA was there when I got my mortgage. The previous owner used them and I continued the contract. I made a claim for my AC unit and that was a very frustrating experience. It was also very hard to get in touch with someone who would speak frankly about what was going on. Customer service would never give me clear answers and would always ask if they could call me back. But they would not call back or they kind of just transfer me in circles.

    I had to call almost on a daily basis to see if anything had been done. I was given the runaround most of the time. For example, I had to pay multiple trade fees to have someone come in and examine the system first many times. HWA picked a company. Once the company came in, did the assessment, and sent it back to HWA, they would reject it. I went through at least four different companies that HWA sent out and I had to pay for each of those until finally, I stopped pursuing the claim and did not have a working AC system for months. I eventually called back to try to get it settled again. I was finally able to get the AC unit fixed. HWA did not cover a lot of it so I still had to pay a lot of money out of pocket. I felt that HWA did not want to accept what the companies were saying because they did not want to be responsible for paying that much.

They got to come out and troubleshoot it, and then, they got to come back. I understand they can't carry every part in the vehicle, and it gets to be a problem. But with some items, it seems like it should be something that can be narrowed down to the point that if it's a control panel, they should bring one with them and swap it out and be done, versus having to sit home for two whole days, the one day for them to troubleshoot, and then another day later for them to come back and do the repair.

It’s the repair people they are in alliance with that I have the hardest part with. It's having them contact me in a reasonable time generally. I am told it would be in 48 hours and that if I don't hear from them within that time, I should call HWA back and they would see what they can do. Sometimes, we don’t hear anything in 48 hours and when we call HWA back, they set us up with somebody else. I know this is a COVID time but sometimes it can be frustrating.

    I have a claim now and the first repair people didn't call me in 48 hours. I called HWA back and now, I'm waiting for the second repair people to call me. Tomorrow, I will be going on my third day waiting for them to call back. I’m having some technical difficulties with my stove and Thanksgiving is on Thursday. If I don't hear from anybody tomorrow about making an appointment, I'm possibly going to be without a stove.

    One other time, I had the same situation where the repair person didn’t call back and I had to call HWA and get signed up with another repair company. You would think they would call and say they would get to me until next week, but nobody ever calls and says anything. But when the repair people do come, the quality of work is awesome.

    I called in early October and filed a claim for my Heater and A/C system not working. HWA said they didn't have a contractor in my area but they would try to find me one. Several follow-up calls and a month later, they still don't have a contractor and told me to call my own. My contractor came out and gave me a diagnostic and estimate for a new system. We submitted that early to HWA, estimate of $5100. After a back and forth with them for more info, HWA advised they would not cover the new platform for $60. Cool, the new HVAC system was installed a week later.

    I submitted the paid invoice of $5350 to HWA, and they offered me a cash buyout for $1700, stating it was company policy to only pay what HWA would have paid their contractor, not retail. The additional insult is that it takes 6-8 weeks to mail a check, or they have an Amazon gift card option in 3 days, like that will reimburse my checking account.

    I gave them a month to find a contractor, and they failed to do so. I gave them the bid/estimate with diagnosis a week to approve, they failed to do so. I asked for a detailed response on exactly what they are covering and why, and they failed to do so. After several supervisor calls later, they offered to give me $2730 for my claim, but they have still failed to tell me what is covered and why they think it's ok to pay for half my claim. No HVAC contractor in Middle Georgia will deal with them because they don't want to tie their name to HWA because of their crooked policies of non-payment and poor customer service.

    Hello John. Firstly, we apologize for all the hustle and delays you have experienced up to this point. We always strive for each claim to be completed as smoothly as possible, and we regret to hear we missed the mark on your claim. After verifying in the system, we have requested a copy of your contract which includes the cover items and parts, along with the benefits your plan has. Following up on one of the asks, there appear in the contract multiples sections which you would be able to verify and found helpful, for instance in Limits of Liability section 14. Cash option, which specifies HWA reserves the right to offer cash back in the amount of HWA’s actual cost for the repair and/or replacement, which may be less than the retail price, to repair or replace any covered item. Nonetheless, our sincere desire is to help our customers and we are glad we were able to increase the amount and you will receive it in the form you accepted. We hope this information might be helpful to clarify some questions and concerns you have. However, we have a dedicated team willing to assist you anytime. We hope to have the opportunity to regain your trust and partnership we value so much. Have a wonderful day and stay safe! Sincerely, Tom/Digital Care.

    I’ve been with HWA for several years. If it’s something like the toilet clogged or something normal, it’s not that expensive, they’re not gonna bat an eye. They’re gonna cover it all day long. But when it starts getting to larger items, it'll be everything under the book on why they can’t cover it. Recently, I had them send out the guy who came out the previous time 'cause they did some good work. I had trouble finding who it was ‘cause it seems like they have different systems now. They have a current system and then they have an old system. The rep on the phone didn't know how to get into the old system. So they put me on hold forever. I even went to their new website and it doesn’t have any of the old histories on it. Just the new claims. It was just silly. They didn't design it that well.

    There's been one or two claims over the course of time that I've had Home Warranty of America that I've had to file. One of them was a little bit late, but overall, it was not terrible. The issue was my hot water tank was going out. We noticed that there was some lack of hot water coming through initially. We looked and realized that there was a leak on it. That was repaired. But after that happened, we started to notice rust-colored water coming through. That was when I called up Home Warranty and had them send somebody out.

    After it was diagnosed that the tank itself needed to be replaced, there was a delay in getting the replacement approved of like almost two weeks. This was also at the start of COVID when we needed to have hot water to make sure we keep things cleaned and washed. After they did the approval, everything else was smooth-sailing from there. After the two-week period, I emailed them a couple of times. Then finally on my fourth email, they did go ahead and get everything approved and we moved forward. Home Warranty did manage to get it resolved.

    Home Warranty's communication could’ve been better. It was difficult to find a decent contact to get ahold of to get an update on the claim. It was probably my third email to them before I got any decent move forward. And even then, there wasn't a response back to me. It was just suddenly, the claim was approved and the plumber contacted me to go ahead and set up the replacement. But that the delay is most likely gonna be your typical style of delay with any real warranty claims.

    I have attempted to file 3 claims now that I thought would be covered on my home warranty with Home Warranty of America. But the fine print and loopholes allowed this company to keep the money that the previous owners paid without giving any sort of useful coverage on the line items supposedly covered in the policy. Also you end up shelling out the service fee to get whatever technician or contractor they send out to you. My washer is leaking because the soap tray is broken but the fine print doesn't cover that part though in the "What's covered list," it checks off the washer and dryer.

    My oven stopped working and I filed a claim. Not only do I have to pay for the service fee of the technician of their choice (not mine) to come out, they called a company that doesn't even handle my kind of oven though I told them exactly what kind of oven it was. That was a lazy move on the part of Home Warranty of America. Now I have to wait for them to reassign another company to my claim. I feel like can't get the proper service and most of the bills will end up being paid by me instead of the service that the previous owners paid into to assure that the buyer of their home will feel comfortable with their purchase. I have owned two homes now and neither of the home warranty companies came through to cover the items in the warranty due to fine print and loopholes. I wish real estate agents would advise against purchasing home warranties. In my opinion, home warranties are such a scam.

    I got an ad from my credit card company saying that I got some kind of rebate if I sign up with Home Warranty of America. I had an old HVAC system that was gonna die in a couple of years. So, I wanted to make sure it was covered before it went out on me. I got the warranty. Usually, I call in to do my claims. They give me a company to contact, or they say they'll reach out. Usually the companies that they give me never contacts me, so I had to reach out to them myself to schedule the appointments. In a couple of instances, I had my water heater go out recently. The company that they gave me wouldn't come out for like a week. We were gonna be left without hot water with company in the house for over a week. So, I called them back and they told me to just schedule my own appointment, so I did that. Then they ended up only giving me less than half of the money that it cost for the water heater replacement.

    You have to use their company or else they will not reimburse you the full amount. But their company doesn't necessarily come out in a reasonable amount of time. Emergency service is not warranted in their opinion. They could have some flexibility in the service provider that they end up using. The ones that they give you seemed to be like the absolute cheapest thing that they can possibly send out.

    In the past, Home Warranty of America was timely in responding to my request and the contractor that they sent out were knowledgeable and got the job done. My furnace went out and there was a main crack on one of the main pipes at my house. Having accessibility to contractors who could get the job done and having insurance to potentially cover it, are keys to any homeowner who wants to sleep good at night. The service helps manage risks. Factoring in a check-up based off the service provided will be a nice added feature to HWA’s service. They could touch base with their customers and see how things are going. I had a furnace that needed some repair and it would have been nice if the contractor could have checked and called to see how the furnace was still operating.

    The technicians have been very professional in most situations. We've had one time that they didn't fix the problem and I had to call somebody else out. But aside from that, they had been good. We’ve had good luck with HWA. We paid our deductible and they came out and fixed the problem, and we’re good to go.

    I needed to have something that was gonna help me out when I got divorced and that was how I started with Home Warranty of America. I keep it because if I have a huge problem that they'll have to cover, then I'll be financially better that way. Most people don't have home warranties but I have one because I know that if a refrigerator breaks and I have to replace it, I don't always have a couple thousand dollars lying around. It's easier for me to come up with $50 a month than it is for me to worry about what's going on. For the last couple of years, it has been smooth getting the contractors out. I was told to go ahead and call them if I don't hear from them in 24 hours. If I call them right away, they’re usually happy to make the appointment right then and there.

    Most of the contractors have been fine but I had a horrible experience in dealing with Home Warranty of America trying to get an AC fixed, waiting on people and having a terrible person install it. I did things online for them and told them that and no one ever called me. And I always put my phone number in. Right now, I have an issue with my AC and I am literally probably gonna call a reputable AC person and find out what I need before I call HWA. The person that did mine before was horrible although I tried to be as nice as I could. When it’s summer here in Louisiana, it still takes about three weeks from start to finish. By that time, I had to get window units and stuff to cool the house.

    It seems like everybody that I talk to rolls their eyes when they know that I have a home warranty. I called plumbers out and told them that if my home warranty comes out, I got to pay $100. So I gave them $100 and they took care of whatever it was. For little things like the garbage disposal, the contractor would do it fine but when it gets to be something serious and somebody needs to be knowledgeable, I’m not getting that in certain situations. But I’m satisfied with HWA in the sense that I don’t ever have to worry about a huge bill. In the long run, I made out much better than if I would not have had a home warranty. When it came to my air conditioner, I came out financially better but it had to be worth it because of the headache involved.

    We’ve been happy with Home of Warranty of America. They choose reputable people who are local, which I appreciate because I've always lived in little towns, to come and service whatever appliance or utility we needed. Most of the time, HWA got someone out right away. The response time was always good and I haven't had a problem where I had to wait days and days to get to what I needed. We've had several different things we've had them out for but the most serious claim that I had was a plumbing issue. It ended up with having to tear up some of the patio outside but they took care of that as well as when we had a toilet overflow.

    I went to the website, filled out the claim, and it took a couple days for someone to contact me. The website said that someone would contact me in 24 to 48 hours, but that didn't happen in that time frame. But when the contractor came, he fixed the issue and we haven't had any issues since then.

    When I first bought the house, I used Home Warranty of America when the hot water heater fell apart. They were good to work with. So overall, I’m happy with it.
