I would highly advise against using Select Home Warranty. I had the worst experience dealing with them than with any other company! I would give Select Home Warranty a negative 5 star review if that was an option. I purchased a 3-year warranty plan that began in 1/2023. I filed my first claim in 5/2024 and a technician diagnosed a problem with my wash machine but the claim stalled with the technician and SHW blaming each other for not fixing the problem.
I had to leave my home over the summer so SHW advised me to re-open the claim in 9/2024. They were unable to provide a technician at that time and advised me to find someone else to repair the washer and they would re-imburse me. It took until 12/5/2024 for me to finally receive the reimbursement after making dozens of telephone calls to them over that time frame to resolve the issue. Ultimately, I requested a cancelation of the remaining term of my contract. This took another 4 telephone calls. Each agent attempted to coerce me into staying with SHW, one told a blatant lie that I had agreed to keep my contract.

DO NOT SELECT THIS COMPANY! We recently bought our first home, and Select Home Warranty has been a complete nightmare! My title company sent out the year premium and had to cancel the check because the warranty company claims they never received it, they reissued it requiring a signature, and again the Select Home Warranty claims they never received it even though I have the name and date of them receiving it. It has now been 6 weeks since closing on my home and they still have yet to issue a policy for me. I have called and been told I have an active policy, then I try to log in to the customer portal, and it says I have no policy, so I call back in and surprise I don’t have an active policy…
I spoke to all the departments for more than 5 hours trying to get a resolution and they kept passing me off to someone else, don’t bother asking for a manager because they have to schedule a call for you and that never happens. Billing will tell you after they actually receive your payment in addition to the 30 day waiting period it also takes an additional 3 weeks for them to even start your policy. Also if you don’t have service receipts for your equipment for a minimum of 6 months they won’t even cover it if it breaks! Do yourself a favor and skip this NIGHTMARE of a company! Any other company would be better I guarantee you!

Absolutely the worst! Filed the claim on 4th of November for refrigerator problem. Technician from contractor chosen by Select Home Warranty - Service Contractor -JMC AC/Heating Mechanical Services came in 10 days after claim submitted. Paid technician $65 fee. Nothing after that. Put multiple calls, spoke with different agents. All promising help within 1-2 business days, promise email confirmation - absolutely nothing happens.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE stay away from this company and save your money. Signed up with them and made a claim when my water heater and then sump pump went out. The water heater was not covered at all and the sump was only covered for $189 and the $425 balance was to be paid by me. They said that it was considered a new replacement of the pump and therefore only partially covered. I could have purchased a new one and put it in myself but I had already paid for the $150 "diagnostic fee". I wish I could give ZERO stars for this company. I will be going back to IGS Home Warranty as I was with them for 14 years and they never Failed me. Select Home Warranty, you FAILED!

I do not recommend this company. I had two claims a water heater and they said it was not covered. Shortly after my dryer. They said that I had to buy a new one for them to give me $125. Since my dryer depreciated in value. I chose to cancel my plan and they never send me the $125.

Select Home Warranty is a complete fraud. I have filed 3 claims with them over the past few years. And not one claim was ever satisfied. You pay $75 for someone to come out and basically they look at the item and say “nothing we can do”. Or with my dryer which worked it just made a loud sound they came out took it apart and said the drum needed to be replaced and it was an easy fix. Left my dryer in pieces left and then I received an email from Select Home Warranty that said the item can’t be fixed and we will give you $100 toward a new dryer once you send the receipt. So now I had a dryer in pieces which worked and no one to fix it.
800 dollars later I had to buy a new dryer and never received a refund for 100 dollars from Select Home Warranty. And when the company came out for my air conditioner they couldn’t do anything. So I had a company come out not with select home warranty who used to work with them and they informed me that Select Home Warranty won’t do anything to help me and won’t spend any money to repair anything. They are a waste of money. And on top of all that they informed me it’s 75 dollars to cancel. Total fraud. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS HOME WARRANTY.

This company is a total scam. They steal your money with no intentions of ever honoring their policy. Waiting 1.5 months to have a their technician contact me, never happened. They finally told me to hire my own tech and they would reimburse me. With less than a week before Thanksgiving I discover my oven is not repairable and needed replaced. They won’t cover anything because the tech tried to install a part that ended up not even being able to fix the oven. Because I didn’t wait a week for them to get back to me they stated they won’t cover it. After hours on the phone they offered to cover the next service call fee of $65. After another day of going back and forth they offered me $200. So after the service call fee of $129 that they won’t cover, I’m left with $70 to buy a new oven. Hundreds of 1 star review on multiple websites that have similar stories to mine. Company is a fraud and a scam. Do not support them.

Misleading company, their policy does NOT cover anything that could go wrong with any of the appliances at all. THEY ARE A TOTAL SCAM! Waste of money, time and effort. Submitted 2 claims for legitimate issues in 24 months of being with them, paid the service fee for the technician to come and they denied my claims for non-sense reasons.

This company is nothing but a scam. They will find ways to not cover your appliance, or they will just cover the parts and you are stuck with the labor cost. DO NOT SIGN UP WITH THEM. I used to have American Home Shield, when I had a claim I paid my deductible and they sent a technician who fixed the issue and I never had to pay more than my $85 deductible. Since I signed up with Select home Warranty I pay my $65 deductible and then have to pay $250+ in labor costs for the repair. If you have them as your warranty company cancel your service and find a more honest company.

I am sending this out so other can be aware. I was with Select Home Warranty for many years. During this time I have called on the 2xs to do repairs which are covered. Both times they have found excuses not to cover. This last time was the worst. I had a plumbing issues in the shower and they started with their semantics in order to get out of fixing anything. They finally said I could get a plumber to write up a report of the problem. I basically had to do all their work and it still was not covered. I waited 5 days before anyone bothered to call me. Most of their responses were like automated useless information. To top it off the representative told me if I paid 200 a month more they would cover it. No Way! Whatever you do not waste your money on this company. They will lie to you and bleed you dry.

Stay far away from Select Home Warranty, they will do whatever they can to not honor your claim, including making up details that your technician did not even tell them. If you legitimize your claim, then they will just find some other excuse to not honor it. I signed up for three years, so far it’s been a year. I made six claims, and every one of them they found a loophole in the contract to exempt. I’m selves from paying a penny. I have now canceled my contract with them.

I had high hopes working with this company, but after they approved me to hire my own contractor, I ended up $2,300 in the hole. Now, they refuse to refund me, leaving me frustrated and disappointed.

Go somewhere else. Had to do all the leg work. Get an email stating they are working on contacting service, but aren't. Then email I can do it, with these stipulations, then never got reimbursed. When I tried to cancel my policy, the guy kept saying he will cancel, but kept trying to get me to stay. After 20min. I hung up. Had to call my credit card company to deny recharging. Good thing I did, because they are still trying to charge for a service I cancelled. Make sure you read the fine print. Not worth the money.

This was the worst experience ever! This company operates like a scam, solely focused on getting your money without providing any real service. From the moment you sign the contract, it feels like it's rigged against you. To summarize, we experienced an HVAC failure, and they didn’t send a technician for a week. After ten days, they rejected our claim, stating that electrical failures are excluded from the warranty. As a result, we ended up paying an annual warranty fee, two technician fees, and all repair costs out of our own pockets.

I bought to be a VIP plan and paid for 3 years with a 6 month free. Paid $1319.19 in May 2023. Recently my 4 year old washer needed new bearings. According to Select it was not cost effective to repair and offered me $225. They said the service person spent 5 minutes and sent them a bill for parts & labor $770. So Select said it was not cost effective and prorated the age of the Washer. I asked for a refund of my policy and was offed $405.70. These warranty’s companies lie so much when selling these policies and should be held accountable!

I've have Select Home Warranty for almost a year now. I've submitted a claim over 2 weeks ago about my fridge leaking water in the floor. Claim #**. Still haven't heard from anyone. I've called several times and they keep telling me they will escalate the claim. But when I ask to speak to a supervisor or manager there's never one available.

Had an existing account with Select Home Warranty and placed a service request for my dishwasher on Sept 15th. Two weeks went by and they weren't able to send someone out to repair it. SHW advised I find my own contractor and call them with the estimate. Called and got approval for the repair of $375... Repair was made and I immediately submitted for reimbursement from SHW. They responded that they received my invoice and it would be processed. My SHW contract ended in the middle of October and I called for a status update on my refund. "Your refund is on hold until you reactivate your account." I advised I wasn't happy with their services and wouldn't be renewing my contract with them. "We do not issue refunds to inactive accounts" I advised I had the approval email and the email acknowledging the invoice and that they have approved the reimbursement with their claims department.
Long story short, they withheld my refund/reimbursement until after my policy expired to avoid refunding me. I wouldn't have spent $375 on a dishwasher repair when you can buy a new one for $400.... AVOID SELECT HOME WARRANTY AT ALL COSTS, horrible customer service and they are actively looking for ways to screw their customers.

Totally dissatisfied with this company. Upon submitting a claim I was told I had to pay the entire claim amount and send proof I had paid it.

I am writing to express my extreme frustration and disappointment with the appallingly poor customer service I have received from your company. I have been a paying customer since January 2023, and in November 2024, I filed a claim for a dryer that stopped working. While I initially appreciated the promptness in sending out a vendor, the experience quickly soured. The vendor determined that the belt and heating element needed replacement, with an estimated repair cost of around $350. However, Select Home Warranty decided the repair was "not worth it" and offered a mere $100 for a replacement, citing the "depreciated value."
Let me be clear: $100 for a dryer is not realistic in today’s market. When I purchased this warranty, I expected it to honor its promise—a warranty, as defined, is a written guarantee to repair or replace an item when necessary. Your response fails to meet this basic obligation. Since receiving this decision, I have made three calls attempting to escalate my issue, each time requesting to speak to a manager. Every time, I was told managers were busy and would call me back within 1–2 hours. Not only did these promised callbacks never happen, but during my third attempt, the call was disconnected. It’s clear I’m not alone in my dissatisfaction since managers appear constantly tied up with other disgruntled customers.
This entire process has been a nightmare, and it has left me feeling unheard, unvalued, and outright scammed. I expected far better service for the money I’ve paid over nearly two years. At this point, I feel compelled to warn others about my experience with Select Home Warranty and encourage them to seek alternatives. Once this issue is resolved, I will be canceling my warranty and taking my business elsewhere. I demand an immediate resolution to my claim and a response from a manager who is willing to address this matter seriously. Anything less will only reinforce my belief that Select Home Warranty is the worst warranty company I have ever encountered.

Do not use this company. I have several rentals and thought I would try Select Home Warranty on a property I rent out in MC, as they are cheaper than most Home Warranty companies. But you PAY for what you get. Their customer service is atrocious, and they never call you back or have anything meaningful or helpful guidance. I placed a call into SHM on Thursday 11/14 via the portal and then waited over 24hrs for anyone to respond to my phone call I placed after the initial claim. Once I finally got hold of someone, they gave me no help and as my claim was an electrical outage at the property, I told them there are two young kids at the property, but all they said was I will receive a call or an email when they find a licensed contractor. Never got a call and Finally got the email on Friday 11/15 and it basically stated, they could not find a local company and I had to find one.
I then rang around on Saturday morning and found a local company that could be at the house on Monday AM. So I scheduled the Electrical company. Strange it took me 10 mins and a large HW company could not find one.,, Monday morning came around and the Electrical company found the issue and quoted me for the work, which was only under $400 dollars. I then due to the SHM policy had to call SHW and get the amount approved. I got on the call with the agent, and they said at this time they will transfer me to the claim approval team. Got transferred and was on hold for 15 mins and at the end they gave me an auto option for a call back, so I went with that option as the Electrical company was waiting. I had the electrical company leave, but confirmed I needed to work at the house by 12pm, as there are two small kids and it's winter, and the house is in NC.
After 2hrs no call back from SHW so I got hold of the Electrical company and had the guy come back and do the work. I still did not hear anything and called SHW but the agent I spoke to did not have an idea what I was talking about, and I could not understand them as the SHW is not in the USA. So, I emailed SHW and told them I approved the work as it was a dangerous electrical issue and sent them the invoice. 24 hrs later I received an email back stating that they will not be approving my claim or issuing me the money I paid back via a check. So, I contacted SHW, and they have flat out refused to honor the money I paid for the electrical work at the company. Plus, still waiting for that last call back from SHW management. AGAIN >> DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.

We have been without heat for 2 weeks and counting, just jumping through hoops to have our claim processed. They ask for info, we send it, they say 1-2 days to process, call in 2 days, they say they didn't receive it, send again and rinse and repeat for 2 weeks of kicking the can down the road. They're quick to take your money but surely their business model is to exhaust you into making the repairs yourself independently. Stay far away, it's a complete waste of money and effort!

I had paid insurance for two and half years, never had a claim but this summer of 2024 when the temperatures rose to 115 my Air Conditioner broke down. I called Select Home Warranty and told them I needed my A/C repaired. They told me they were so busy they did not have anyone to come and look at it and to find one on my own and they would refund up to $109 for the service visit.
After I sent the receipt to Select Home Warranty and was told I needed to replace different parts it would be better to get a new one. I was given the impression by the Select Home Warranty that they would help me solve the problem. Every day for two weeks I called and they told me their team would meet and let me know how they would replace it. They have trained their employees very well to lie and try to convince you they are working on he problem when they are not. After two weeks of suffering from the intense heat I went ahead and bought a new Air Conditioning system, sent them the bill and never heard from them again. They are such thieves they did not even pay for them. DO NOT WASTE MONEY WITH THESE THIEVES!

I canceled the home warranty with Select Home Warranty because they would not honor the warranty. I had multiple issues with my refrigerator and they would not cover repairs and said that they would give me $185 towards a new one. Also would not honor repairs on AC unit claiming an electrical issue when in fact it was not, got a 2nd opinion.
Read your contract carefully because there is a $75 cancelation fee that reads as if you are a new customer but applies even if you have been a customer for 10 years. They would renew my so called contract automatically but told me I was month to month. That makes no sense to me. Lesson learned. Do not trust ANY business and do not sign up with ANY business until I have literally read every single word of the contract. I gave it a 1 because I had to. We all know that we pay more into these warranties than we get out. Maureen and Faith kept trying to pressure me into staying until my so called anniversary date, so they could suck and $350 out of me, which is much more than the $75 fee. All I want is my $75 and call it even. Poor service in exchange for a refund. Opened a saving and put that money in it for future repairs. Don't touch it. I suggest you do the same. Home warranties are a rip off.

On October 15th, my refrigerator broke and stopped cooling. Select Home Warranty hired a “company” to fix it and sent him out on October 31st, over two weeks from when I made the claim all while my refrigerator is still running and not correctly. The company who came to fix it was a single man company that did not speak English and had two unlicensed appliance technicians come to my house on his behalf. They charged $75 and only accepted Venmo or Zelle (not a credit card because that could be disputed) before even looking at my refrigerator. He tightened some wires and said “I fix loose wire if no work it’s compressor” and left. I heard nothing for 72 hours so I called back and Select Hoke Warranty (called “SHW” from here out) said that they haven’t received any paperwork and I needed to call their technician and see where it was.
After calling the technician he said he was waiting for authorization from SHW. I called back SHW and they asked me to 3 way call their technician. I did and then it was a he said she said as I listened to this call. Very odd. Their tech hung up and I asked for a new company. I heard nothing from SHW so I called again to follow up and they said they had someone coming Friday November 8th, one week later. The new company turned out to be another individual who fixed exercise equipment per his social media thumbtack website. I told them this was not acceptable, I had been out a fridge for almost a month at this point and I needed someone to come out or I was cancelling.
SHW then asked me to give them a chance and sent an actual appliance company. The technician said my compressor failed and wasn’t pumping refrigerant. He requested for a lm entire new seal system (compressor, fan, coils) because he wasn’t sure if the other parts would work any longer even with just a new compressor because it had been running this way for so long and there could be a clog or leak he wasn’t sure. SHW then denied the claim even though all the requested parts are covered simply because they were all requested together as a part of the whole seal system which is not covered. If their technician had simply requested a compressor alone it would have been covered. If that didn’t work he could have individually requested other parts after and they would have been covered.
The worst part is that if they had sent a technician in a timely manner to fix it and not waited two weeks to send a shoddy contractor then most likely I wouldn’t even need any other parts. I told them on the 15th of October too during my initial call it was the compressor. This company is terrible. They will steal your money for services they won’t provide even though they are contractually obligated to and send unqualified “service provider” to your home. Also you’ll have to wait almost a month for them to even send anyone. Awful, Awful service.

Beware. Do not do business with this company. I filed my first claim on a dishwasher. Claim number **. The technician came out and found that the pump and heating element needed to be replaced. I paid my $65 service call. He called Select Home Warranty and I was present. They only wanted to cover the part with the cost of $300. They wanted me to cover the labor. It states nowhere in my contract that I would have to pay additional money. They told me that they were just going to give me the value of the unit. I read my contract under dishwasher and I quote this is what it says. "6.2.4. Dishwashers. This agreement covers all modules, components, and parts of the dishwasher necessary to the functionality of the dishwasher. Control boards. pumps. switches. drain pump. temp control. heating elements. drain lines. Excluded racks and rollers".
I called to cancel contract and they gave me a huge run around. They wanted to charge me $75 to cancel. Even the repair tech told me that he does not deal with them much that they owed him for two other jobs. I heard him ask them about that on the phone. He said they are nothing but a scam. So, I made another call and another representative was very rude and basically told me that the dishwasher was not worth it and I could by a new one for $300 and that I should just accept it. Tried to tell me about another rule in the contract of like number 8.1. I told him that I did not even have a 8.1 in my contract. I had the contract right in front of me. So, What did he say. "I will then cancel your contract" and then hung up the phone.
I always wanted to have protection with my appliances and thought I believed in this company but I was proven wrong on the first claim. Now this is hearsay from the tech but he said he just worked on a air conditioner for another customer and outside unit needed to be replace but because they could not provide yearly maint records the claim was denied. So, Just be careful in the home warranty process. You pay 800 to 1k per year for what. You might as well just take that money and put it in a savings account to cover your own repairs because in the long run you will end up paying for just the depreciated value from what I understand and they are not upfront with that part of the business. Hope this helps. I am adding pictures of the dishwasher as it's in very good condition.

I filed a claim with Select Home Warranty, only to be told my account was expired. My payments were taken out of my checking account, without ever missing a payment. It took a month for them to discover that my account was actually paid in full every month. In the mean time it was in the 90’s in Florida and I had to get the A/C unit repaired, my house was 93 degrees. It was extremely difficult to work with customer service. All agents spoke very little or hard to understand English.
It took weeks for them to admit that they were wrong and my claim should have been accepted because my account was up to date, paid in full for almost 3 years. I submitted all documentation from a reputable A/C repair company. My claim was denied because they did not authorize the repair. They would not even listen to the facts that they created the need for me to go ahead and get the A/C repaired. I was cheated & I don’t want anyone else to experience what I had to go through with this fraudulent company. This company is as bad as they come, customer service is non existent.

When their agents couldn’t justify the rejection, they would simply offer a $100 refund instead of addressing the issue. If you value your time and money, look elsewhere. This company’s service falls far short of the promises in their premium packages.

Select Home Warranty has a few fine lines in their contract you need to be aware of. The first one is that anything said on their website or by an associate has no bearing on your actual coverage. This means they can promise you all the protection in the world and simply find some random excuse to deny your claim (like any/all electrical problems are not covered despite everything being made of electrical components). The 2nd is that if something is too expensive to repair, they will only give you ~5-10% value of the component/unit and say it is because of depreciation, and nothing more. 3rd is that Select has a hard time getting contractors to work on your units because they frequently do not pay the contractors, I have 2 contracts still waiting to get paid for working on my AC unit over 6 months ago... Select is a horrid company! DO NOT BUY THEIR COVERAGE!!

This place is a scam. They will use loophole 9.1.2 in the contract to avoid any repairs. They will say the appliance is too old or you did not maintain everything yearly (like AC), if you do not have some record where you have someone come clean everything once a year then per 9.1.2 they do not have to pay for repair. Buyer beware! I never had a problem at American Home Shield! Going back.

Select was very fast in getting a repair person to fix my installed refrigerator icemaker. Of course, it initially wasn't covered because in their list of appliances that are covered, there is a listing for ice maker, but it's listed just like lots of different appliances -- it does not say refrigerator icemaker. So, when there's a service call they say, for an additional $100 we will cover the icemaker. Then, when the service tech calls and says Select has approved the part, but will NOT PAY INSTALLATION. If you look carefully at the list of items not covered, installation is on the list, though, of course, not featured. The place to get that information is here.

Select Home Warranty is a terrible company! They claim they will take care of you but they don't. When you file a claim they do not respond with a answer on your claim with in 24 hours. Select claims they sent an email they are working on the problem and that is the answer in 24 hours. Bull. I have had 3 claims with this terrible company and all of them I have had to keep calling for an update as they don't let you know. When you call they are working on it. Bull. I have had to find my own technician for all 3 claims. Select pre authorizes you $100.00 when you call your own tech but if you don't call them before the work is done Select won't pay you for the job or the $100. preauthorized amount.
They insist the tech I get was to call them. Usually the tech is here later in the day and do you know how long you have to wait on line? Do you know how many times you have to repeat your name and address and then still was on hold for 45 min. The tech I got to fix the last job had many others to do, he did not have time to wait around for the phone call. THIS IS A TERRIBLE COMPANY! You pay them for the policy and you still end up paying for the work to be done.

I deeply regret purchasing a home warranty from Select Home Warranty. My experience with them has been nothing short of frustrating and disappointing. Here's why: Failure to Provide Service: When our hot water heater broke down, we immediately filed a claim. According to their contract, they're supposed to send a technician within 2-4 days. We waited for over 10 days, and no one ever came or even contacted us. Left Without Hot Water: My family, including small children, was left without hot water for more than 10 days. This caused significant inconvenience and potential health issues.
Unfair Claim Denial: When we submitted the bill for reimbursement, Select denied our claim. They cited a clause saying they don't cover repairs they didn't authorize - even though they failed to send anyone in the first place! Poor Customer Service: Attempts to resolve this issue with their customer service have been futile. They've been unresponsive and dismissive of our concerns.
Contract Violations: Select Home Warranty violated multiple clauses in their own contract, yet they refuse to take responsibility. In my opinion, this company does not honor its commitments. They seem to collect premiums happily but do everything possible to avoid paying claims. Save yourself the headache and money - avoid Select Home Warranty. You're better off setting aside money for repairs yourself than relying on this unreliable service.

Do not purchase a warranty from Select Home Warranty. They are not available 24/7 as advertised. I filed a claim, 10 days later was told my appliance was too old and offered $150 toward replacement of $4300 unit. Tried to cancel the policy but was passed on to more employees up the chain of command who promised my next claim would be satisfied. Argued to cancel the contract and then eventually after calling back 4 times to cancel, I was charged $75 fee for cancelling. Do not trust this company. They are low quality and will not complete repairs or replacement as they advertise. They depreciate an item based on its age and then give you replacement value based on the age. Just like car insurance, you file a claim and you never get enough to replace the vehicle.
I had a previous contract with American Home Shield and changed to this company due to rising costs, then after 10 years of no claims with AHS, I finally had a claim but with the Select Home Warranty. What a shame, 10 years with one and then 2 months with a new one and nothing happens. It's just pitiful. I was a fool for attempting to save $400. If you get anything from this review, please do not get a contract with Select Home Warranty.

This is my first time using a home warranty service and it will be my last. My experience is a follows and I am not one that writes reviews: I contacted SHW on 10/14/24 for an HVAC problem and an appointment was scheduled the same day from 4:00-6:00 PM. I left work early and waited on the contractor to arrive. At 6:30 PM, I called the contractor and did not receive and answer. They called me back the next day and we scheduled a second appointment for a few days later. He then contacted me the next day and asked if he could come a day earlier and I agreed to do so once again leaving work early to wait on the contractor. He again no showed and did not communicate.
I called him again and asked if he was going to keep his other appointment time and he at least responded this time and said he would not be in the area. So, I am out two days of work, still no working ac, and $75.00 payment in advance. I did call SHW and told them I did not want to pay the $75.00 in advance and was told by SHW that is standard practice to confirm appointment. From what I have learned the contractors are not locals as this company is 100+ miles away from me and I live in a major metro area. A lesson I learned the hard way and want to provide an honest opinion to those considering Select Home Warranty. I am out my monthly payments, $75.00 service fee, and have not had a working ac for a week. The repair has never been done. This is an absolute scam. You are much better off putting your monthly fee in a separate account and working with a local contractor.

Select uses section 8 of their contract to get out of covering items. They don’t cover installation or other fees and you still pay your $75 fee each time. They sent out someone to fix my garage door opener and after replacing the receiver said it would be ok. The next day it wouldn’t lift the door. I called again and they sent someone else who said it was too old and needed a new one. Select would only give me $175 toward it and would not cover installation charges or any other fees.

Because of this company, I will never sign up for home warranties again! I paid over $3,000 for a 5 year plan. I’ve had them for about two years and I only filed 2 claims, both in which I was told they did not cover. Not to mention it took forever to get a technician to come to inspect that appliance and then more time for them to report to the company to let them know what’s wrong with it. Just so that weeks later they can tell me they don’t cover it. Then when I tried to cancel with them, they told me my reimbursement would be $930 and that I will receive a check in 30 days!
Well 60 days later, I called again to see where my check is and apparently they never canceled my contract because when the manager called me (one time) after I tried to cancel and I didn’t answer because I was not available, they decided to not cancel my contract and continue to charge so now my reimbursement is $100 less!!! This company is a scam and just work to take people’s money. Save your money instead so you can pay out of pocket and when you call technicians without warranties things get fixed in less than one week!!!

What a total waste of time and money! When we purchased our home 11 months ago we bought a home warranty as part of sales contract. We filed a claim for a plumbing back up and they sent someone to take care of it, that was the one and only time it went well. The next time was for my Electrolux Induction Cooktop. The elements were occasionally not working so we filed a claim. They came out and because I couldn’t make it act up while he was here he left. Before leaving he said that with the induction cooktops that there’s no fixing it. If something fails then the entire thing has to be replaced and his manager hates paying for a replacement because they’re so expensive.
About 2 weeks ago our microwave went out so I filed a claim. I answered their questions and said it was a Kitchenaid built in that I assume was 7 years old based on manufacturer date but no clue when it was purchased or installed. They sent an email and said that it would cost more to fix it than what it’s worth. They said that my only option is to buy a new one and once I can show proof that I replaced it I can send a receipt and they will pay me $95. They are offering me $95 for a $900 microwave.
Two days ago our AC froze up so we filed a claim. The tech showed up and said the Freon was low and he needed to talk to Select to see if they would pay for a dye test for a leak. Of course they said no and the tech said Select would be in touch with our options. They emailed and said that they don’t cover Freon leaks. They don’t pay for Freon leaks or a dye test, so what do they pay for? Again, another $75 wasted. Why would you send someone out to charge us a fee if you weren’t going to cover it?

Updated on 10/23/2024: This is an add on to my previous review where I was waiting for a call back from a supervisor. The supervisor never called me back. I filed my complaint with the BBB even though this company is not an accredited member with the BBB. I was referred to also file a complaint with the Attorney General and the board of insurance in my state even though this is not considered insurance. They do have a department to take these type of service contract complaints. I have disputed the charges to my credit card company as well. I received a call from someone with this company on Sunday 10/20/24 saying he was responding to my complaint with the BBB and that he would issue a credit to my credit card for five of the 18 monthly payments from my credit card, and that was all he would do. I told him I had disputed the charges with my credit card company and I wanted all my money back.
He had nothing further to say and the call was ended. I did get the credits a total of six back to my credit card. The remaining twelve refunds are still being investigated. This company did absolutely nothing for me. I could not use my kitchen or bathroom properly and they did nothing for me. They refused to repair my oven. Initially I thought the reason they was offering me the $175 to replace the oven was because the service technician incorrectly documented the oven was 20 years old. After that mistake was corrected they started sending me text messages and emails the text messages was telling me to pick a day for a technician to come to repair the oven but the only thing that would come up when I would try and select a day and time was a statement for me to say the service was completed. The emails was asking for me to send a picture of the oven. I did that.
I kept getting the text messages though. I eventually started calling for answers about what was going on with these text messages. The first customer service operator said the claim was denied because I filed a complaint with the BBB. The second operator said the claim was denied because I DISPUTED THE CHARGE WITH THE CREDIT CARD COMPANY AND WHEN THAT HAPPENS THEY CANCEL THE SERVICE. That was the first refund I received then they issued five more. I am determined to get all my money back. This is so wrong and if I am allowed I want to continuing posting here the outcomes of my journey to be refunded every penny they received for doing absolutely nothing.
Original Review: My experience with this company was horrible. Two claims plumbing stoppage and oven needing repair. They did nothing for the plumbing stoppage. They couldn't find a plumber to make the repair the broken oven. They sent a technician. I paid the $75 fee. They denied and offered me $175 to replace the oven and would only pay the $175 after I provided a receipt for the purchase of another oven. Of course I did not accept that. The oven technician put on my receipt the oven was 20 years old. After realizing that mistake and checking the oven was manufactured 2014 and I purchased it in 2016 new they still just denied the repair. My rating is minus 1,000000. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS LIKE TALKING TO THE CAT IN THE HAT. Unnecessary rudeness and they seemed to think my situation was funny. I'm still waiting on a call back from a supervisor which I know will never call.

It appears Select Home Warranty is a "call center scam". It also appears their approach to a claim is to review parts costs from Home Depot and add a fraction of the time required needed for the repair generating a contractor compensation of a fraction of what is required. For example; Select only offered $180 for a water leak that required $1600 in repairs. Originally Select told me it was my responsibility to resolve the cost with their technician whom I didn't select. After complaining for 9 days with call center operators requesting to speak to Corporate and threatening litigation, I finally received a call from Corporate offering the maximum amount of $500. It shouldn't have taken 9 days to get to this point. I highly recommend to not use Select.

They also charged me, on the spot, for the technician (Sothern Comfort Air) to even show up. Without even looking at my AC, the technician, in advance, forewarned me that the repair would not be covered.

Select ordered that part plus another ice maker that was faulty. Tech then installed the solenoid valve.
New ice maker arrived and Select DECLINED to pay for the labor to install. Service call would have been $75. Tech wanted $100. John from their "Customer Loyalty" section called and offered other options but would not pay the $100. So, for $100 Select decided that they would lose a customer.

As a home owner who has used a few different companies over the years, Select Home Warranty is the absolute worst company I've ever had to deal with, warranty company or otherwise. When looking at online reviews, they came recommended by reputable companies. At this point, the only logical conclusion is they are so flush with cash they steal from customers that they are able to buy all these "endorsements." They make the process purposefully complicated so that you have to keep calling or e-mailing - likely hoping many will just give up. While they claim they cover older appliances, they depreciate the value of the appliance to almost nothing with an unknown calculation they will not share with you. If you try to talk to a supervisor or otherwise elevate the claim, they refuse. If you e-mail with complaints, you get no response.
The call center customer service employees state all these decisions are made by other departments and those departments don't or won't speak with customers. No one ever provides documentation behind why they NEVER COVER ANYTHING AT EVEN 50%. Today, they broke the contract I agreed to. The oversees call center employee told me SHW would only cover parts and not labor to fix the fan that was out in my oven. I was looking at the contract during the call and told her that was not in there. She tried to direct me to a specific portion, which I read to her line by line, clearly indicating that she was wrong. She refused to acknowledge what she was saying wasn't in the contract, and kept referring to the services center that had made this decision and it was final. Wouldn't elevate the claim. Wouldn't let me talk to anyone else. Said take it or leave it. AVOID THIS COMPANY LIKE THE PLAGUE OR YOU WILL REGRET IT.

I called them for 5 days straight and they finally told me that they will only cover $400.00, total of the $1700.00 quote. They said that was the total they paid for any claim.

I had warranty with this company for 8 months with no claims. First claim was for dishwasher not working correctly. They sent a technician in a very timely manner who stated what needed to occur to repair and paid the 75 dollar fee. The following week I get a notice indicating that the cost to repair was too much and they offered 100 dollars toward replacement or repair. Of course that is not enough to do either. After reading reviews here I also believe this is deceptive company who gets consumers to purchase the warranty but does not follow through. Today I received a marketing email and thought I would copy and paste part of it as part of this review. It is at the least deceptive and at most potentially false advertising.
"2021 Editor's Choice Top10 Home Warranty Editor's Choice Top10.com. We Provide Peace of Mind. Report a Claim icon. 1. Report a Claim. When something happens, call us or contact online.

Unfortunately it is not as simple as that. Companies such as this should be held accountable for the false advertising. I have canceled the warranty and certainly hope they do follow through with that.

I don't use to write reviews or surveys online. However, Select Home Warranty company is the worse warranty company in the field, that I like to let everyone avoid to it. They offer lower premium and always have better discount with longer contract terms. However, they have horrible and terrible service. The technicians they hire are very small companies with lack of professional skills. It takes more than 3 weeks to handle the service and finalized claims under this warranty company. Majority of the BIG appliances are not replaced, such like, A/C, heater, double door oven, 6 ranges cooktop, and refrigerators, because Select Home Warranty always finds an excuse to reject any reimbursement for replacement.
Select Home Warranty company is only paid lower amount repair service, anything over $500 or more, they will reject to pay and reimbursement. I have been with 3 warranty companies in last 35 years and Select Home Warranty is the worst warranty company I experience. The reasons by having a warranty company to protect the home appliances are avoid finding a non-professional technician when the appliance is broken down, and the warranty company is backing you up when the appliance needs to replace. However, Select Home Warranty never have this kind of protection to me and every time when something is broken down, it is frustrated to handle with the warranty company, their underwriter or determination department are non-professional.
They mixed up someone else claims and policy numbers in my A/C replacement claim, and every call I made, a different claim number with someone else A/C unit is emailed to me randomly. I requested to talk to a supervisor 3 times within a month. Nobody called or email back to me as supervisor answer. I highly recommend looking for some other warranty companies, don't waste your money and time with Select Home Warranty.

Select Home Warranty is the most crooked, backstabbing company I have ever worked with. I bought 4 policies for a 3 year period for rental units. In our first year we made several claims, most of these claims the company sent a small check which covered 25% of the cost to replace and install a new appliance. At the year mark I called to cancel my policies and receive a prorated return. I was on the phone for over 90 minutes talking to 5 different people, each blatantly ignoring my request to cancel and trying to offer minor benefits to earn my business back.
It was a nightmare. 90 minutes of say no, asking for a refund, being transferred, put on hold. Only to find you even though I had only used 1/3 the life of the policy (with 2/3 remaining) they only offered me about 35% back. Their policy includes cancellation fees AND they reduce from your cancellation all fees paid on claims. So you literally pay them for insurance, if down the road you cancel they make you pay for the prior claims. Absolute crooks. The BBB needs to shut them down.

Homeowner beware, Select Home Warranty is the worst home insurance I have ever had. After 3 claims, I can say with all honesty that I rue the day I signed a contract with them, which I’m stuck with for another 2 years due to their early cancellation policy which dictates that the consumer must pay back all covered repairs if they cancel early.
Their repair service is terrible, one in particular in which they had to replace my water heater, they sat on for weeks. We were without warm water for weeks mid-winter. I ended up having to file a complaint with the state to get them to actually approve the replacement. In another occasion my garbage disposal stopped working and they didn’t even bother just sent me an email stating they would give me $75 towards a new one (which alone costs $150 and up) and that I had to figure out the actual replacement myself, oh and then send them the bill for reimbursement which was a headache to get as well. I can keep going but I’m I hope you get the picture. I’ve had other home insurance companies and the best I’ve come across is Homeshield. They were quick and never ever gave me a hassle about not covering repairs. Oh how I miss them so.

Select Home Warranty is a terrible company. I have had them for three years and had two claims. First was roof leak. They don't pay to repair anything but the roof, so no drywall repair. They denied my claim as they only pay for a small round area and pay for no shingles, nails, or any other part of a roof. I reported to the BBB, they paid it then, at least their max of 400, and it cost 700. Then, I had yet to change companies, and my AC went out. Basically my coil failed, possibly due to blower motor fail, then froze, then broke. Standard AC issue.
First denied due to condensation leak, which didn't happen, then for freon leak. It had that as part of the overall failure, which is common. They don't pay for that. There was a total system failure, the issue was not the freon, but even so, don't pay for the freon. What about the coil? Nope. Look them up on BBB. This is common for them to deny everything. Do not waste your money. They are criminal. I am going to report them to Consumer Affairs. FYI, I have Platinum coverage.

The noise issue is a symptom but the vent is not working properly so this is to me a mechanical issue. Though I am not familiar with how this claim process works so didn't talk to him in details assuming he will explain to the insurance and resolve it.
A day later the insurance replied to me it is a noise issue so they won't pay for it. And the repair company called me. It will cost $267 to repair. I called the insurance. They told me I have to call the repair company to resubmit another report; otherwise they consider it is JUST a noise issue. I called the repair company and they told me they are not gonna do anything, pay them $267 to replace the damper and they agree this is a mechanical issue.

I’ve had an extremely disappointing experience with SelectHomeWarranty regarding a claim for my Samsung dishwasher that displayed error code 5C. Here’s a summary of the ordeal:
Initial Delay: I reported the issue on a Thursday, but SelectHomeWarranty didn’t even look at the case for 24 hours. Once they finally did, they said it would take another 24-48 hours just to find a technician.
Technician Assigned – No Resolution: By Monday, a technician was assigned, and although he came out to check the dishwasher, the error code reappeared immediately after he left. It took me until Wednesday to get hold of the technician, who told me that the dishwasher needed to be replaced and that he had submitted a detailed report to SelectHomeWarranty.
SelectHomeWarranty's Lack of Coordination: When I contacted SelectHomeWarranty, they claimed they hadn’t received any report from the technician. This left me, the customer, in the frustrating position of having to chase down the technician for the company, even though they were the ones who hired him!
Three-Way Call Mishap: I finally managed to arrange a three-way call with the technician and a SelectHomeWarranty representative. After hearing the technician confirm the issue, they transferred us to another department, where we were placed on hold for 15 minutes before the call was dropped. No one bothered to call back.
Endless Runaround: After more phone calls, SelectHomeWarranty finally said they received the technician's diagnostics but needed 24-48 hours to review the report. When I called back after two days, they suddenly required pictures of the dishwasher (something that could have been requested much earlier!). I sent the pictures, confirmed receipt, and was told to wait another 48 hours.
Contradictory Information: When I followed up again, I was told the internal department only received the pictures yesterday, despite confirming their receipt with a customer service representative two days prior. Every time I asked to speak with a manager, I was told no one was available. It’s now been two weeks, and I’m still waiting for a resolution. As a customer based in California, this experience has been beyond frustrating, and I would strongly recommend looking for other home warranty providers. SelectHomeWarranty has failed in both service and communication.

**STOP** DO NOT USE SELECT HOME WARRANTY*** They cover basically nothing. Always a challenge. Read the very very fine print. They can elect NOT to cover anything at any time and pay you a depreciated value under Section 8 of their policy! If you have a home with appliances over 5 years old they simply say the cost to repair is more than the value of the unit and will NOT fix it and will offer a replacement value at a fraction of the cost.
I had a built in microwave and was offered just $95 to replace it. They would not fix it. $95?? for a built in microwave? Really? Plus another time they were asked to fix our stove and it took 5 times for them to come out and 'try' and fix it. Customer service is terrible, warranty is terrible. On the surface you'll think it's good (like I did), but if you read the fine print, they will find the way to NOT warranty anything worth value. Please, please read everything (especially section 8). This gives them the right to not warranty anything in their own opinion and will offer pennies as a cash settlement. Are you prepared for that? If so, GOOD LUCK.

You're required to have an estimate from a plumber and have the plumber respond to their questions.
After this annoying series of phone calls and conversations with me and the plumber, the company stated that they couldn't authorize the payment until three days later. I'm frustrated, I just had the plumber do the work without authorization for repayment. After three days, the company wrote me that my claim was not authorized for repayment - for a toilet leak! - which is clearly authorized in my contract.

Terrible Experience with Select Home Warranty and Mosqueda Refrigeration - A/C Still Not Fixed After a Month in 120-Degree Heat. I am beyond frustrated with both Select Home Warranty and Mosqueda Refrigeration LLC. I submitted a claim in August for my A/C, and it’s now September—I still don’t have air conditioning in 120-degree Arizona heat! The first technician from Mosqueda Refrigeration never showed up, and despite requesting a new service provider, Select Home Warranty kept sending the same unreliable company that never came.
Mosqueda initially claimed they came on a day I never even selected and didn’t bother to inform me. After showing proof that their claim was false, they finally scheduled another visit. When they did come, the technician couldn’t do anything because they needed authorization from Select Home Warranty, meaning I waited days for nothing. Now, I’m stuck waiting even longer for the authorization process, followed by waiting for this unprofessional A/C company to maybe come back and actually do the work. To make matters worse, Select Home Warranty tried to deny my claim by falsely stating the unit was installed wrong. My A/C has worked perfectly for seven years—if it was installed incorrectly, it wouldn’t have functioned at all. Clearly, this was an attempt to avoid covering my valid claim.
This entire process has been a nightmare. I’ve paid so much money for this home warranty, only to receive poor customer service, slow authorizations, and absolutely no urgency or accountability from either company. In 120-degree heat, this lack of urgency is completely unacceptable—especially since my husband is disabled and the heat is severely affecting his health. Neither Select Home Warranty nor Mosqueda Refrigeration has shown any compassion or professionalism throughout this ordeal.
Select Home Warranty needs to better manage their service providers and implement consequences for companies that fail to serve their customers. Mosqueda Refrigeration is unreliable, unprofessional, and has shown no accountability for their complete failure to deliver any service.

I decided to purchase one to give myself peace of mind. I purchased June 9 2024. 82 days later, our pool pump starting having an issue (covered under our policy). I called to inquire about filing a claim and was told to do it online. I filed online 1.5 days later (on a Saturday, when I had the time). I followed all of the rules to submit the claim. It was denied based on "pre-existing" condition. However, our pool is serviced weekly by a company that can attest to our pump working great until this very issue. It has never had a concern before this instance. The suggested repair is motor replacement. It is about $600 to replace. While this isn't a huge expense, it is a repair that should be fully covered.
If they can get out of this, they can and will get out of anything. It just occurred on a pump that worked great. I called within 24 hours. I filed the claim online as told by customer service. I followed all steps. I have a licensed pool company out weekly to service our pool that can attest to there never being any concerns prior to this claim. It is a covered repair, it is not in their exclusions, it is past he 30 day waiting period. etc. Everything points to this being a covered claim, yet they denied with no specifics, only quoting my policy terms stating "this began before coverage was effective".
It was 82 days into my coverage, so past the 30 day waiting period and it was absolutely not a pre-existing issue. This pump was great right until this needed repair.

For every item I called for, none was fixed and I have to fix them on my own.
Select Home Warranty are good at taking down your claim and assigning a contractor. The problem is, from my experience, they don't follow up to see that the job is done. Their agents on the phone would tell you that they are waiting for the quote from the contractor. It is worse when you have an emergency. My garage door would not close and I was going to work. I filed the claim but they did not show up. I had to call an independent person who came and fixed it within a couple of hours. Select did not refund me saying I would need to get permission from them before fixing anything, even in emergency and after filing a claim but they failed to show up for an extended time.

I called to cancel plans but the company didn't cancel as asked so they charged me for two additional months. I called again for the third time only to be told the cancelation ask wasn't followed through even though it was documented. Now in addition to money being taken out of my account for two months that shouldn't have been, another amount has been taken out for the cancelation fees. Lesson learned don't hang up until a cancelation email is sent otherwise the blame game is used and you still will be out of money.

I called about a plumbing issue. I thought it should be one claim because both were problems with flushing mechanisms with the toilets. They said the plumbing issue had to be two different claims because although both of the toilets had problems, they were in different rooms. So, the plumbing claim was divided in two.

We spoke with a sales person and purchased a whole year of Select Home Warranty and when we set up the policy we said we needed to make sure to cover a second refrigerator, a stand alone freezer and our roof. We were told that Select covers the electrical system and went through all the coverages under the premium plan, which met our needs. We have submitted 2 claims, one for our electrical system, and a second one for our stand alone freezer and both claims were denied as the issue we are having was not covered, and we would have to add those services on.
We paid $549 for an entire year and got an extra 2 months for free. Since we have not been able to get anything fixed by you and we are not getting the service we were promised we are asking for a full refund of the $549. The only other option we will accept is to honor what your salesman told us and fix what we have asked to be fixed. Anything less than these two options will result in us contacting our attorney.

The things they will hide from you when you sign up. Your money is not refundable when you try to cancel, even if they claim it will be prorated after one year. I have 2 years left on my contract but they won't give me a dime back. They will lie to you and say things like your freezer which is connected to your fridge is not covered.
After a lot of discussion they agreed to send in a technician (who was just interested in getting his copay money and leave), wrote that it was a manufacturing defect/improper installation or previous repairs of my fridge for the leaking water. All of which is false statement. Then declined my whole claim and hid behind the clause of the contract. AKA, they will do everything to not pay and fix your item. Good luck getting in touch with a supervisor if you ever want to. They count of the fact you will get tired and give up on the claim just like any health insurance company. They don't care about people, they just patronize you on the phone.

DO NOT PURCHASE A HOME WARRANTY FROM THIS COMPANY!! We purchased the Select Home Warranty Platinum plan 11 months prior to our first repair call. When we initially spoke with Ryan ** (the sales rep who sold us the policy) he assured us that SHW was swift in their response time and in most cases a repair person was dispatched in less than 24 hours. Our A/C was not properly cooling our home and so we submitted a claim ticket to have a repair person come out. Regrettably, this was the Friday leading into Labor Day weekend. After 4 hours of not receiving a response, I phone the toll free number to ask about my repair claim, and was told that SHW had a 24-48 hour window to respond to any claim submitted. I explained this was not acceptable and asked that they expedite their response time to assign someone to me.
A single repairman was assigned my case and I was immediately told that his earliest time to respond would not be until Tuesday at best. I explained with our weekend temps creeping up to 90 degrees, that I needed someone sooner, and he suggested that I phone back to SHW and ask for another repair team to be dispatched, which I did. SHW told me that if I took this avenue, that they then would have another 24-48 hours to find a secondary repair person! Basically, the clock starts over because they are not doing their job! RIDICULOUS!! I was given the option to pay for the repair myself and was warned that by doing so was not guaranteed that my out of pocket expenses would be covered!! HORRIBLE COMPANY!!

Jim ** was very friendly and helpful and felt comfortable talking with him, I have been looking for policies for awhile and Jim was last I got in touch with and glad I was able to talk with him. Y’all may not like it. He made me feel comfortable with the words he used like God Bless.

I signed us for Select Home Warranty in January 2024 for the most obvious reason, my appliances are aging. 10 days ago I filed a claim for my central aircon, the diagnosis was a bad condenser fan that needs to be replaced, the company requested 3 years maintenance records which I provided and I repeatedly get info that the records are not sufficient and the claim will only be processed for $150 where the cost for repair is $850. Today after multiple escalations I was asked to provide 2021 records since 2024 is not considered a full year. I sent that in email today and as with every communication it is 1-2 business days review which will result in no resolution until Monday. The company does not call you, you have to call repeatedly to find out status, essentially they do not want to payout a legitimate claim and is using every delay tactic in the book to tire you out so you give up.

Barry ** was very helpful with answering my questions and offered me a lock in reduced price for a longer term. I don't have to shop for another warranty company after one year. I was able to receive a discount on my second home too. I have yet to see how service is when and if I should need to put in a claim for service.

Great customer service! I was pleased with the customer service I received. Henry was concise, no pressure to upsell. Based on options given, I was easily able to find a plan that works best for my home & financial situation. I was informed of several different levels of coverage, and current sales to take advantage of. Very thorough.

I am new select customer. To save money on home warranty, I opted for 10 year plan and it is covering almost all the appliances in my house. The sales guy (Ryan **) was amazing, he listened to my patiently and he explained everything in detail. I am hoping to have good customer experience with SHW.

I had a difficult time understanding the operator. She spoke very quickly but at least let me try to sneak a word in edgewise. I believe I got the issue resolved. However, time will tell. The outcome was satisfactory so that's all I can say. Other than that I'm very happy with Select Home Warranty.

The signup process was simple, and I'm excited about the value that Select Home Warranty is providing me. The program really gives me a peace of mind that I'm covered for the next 6 years, which helps with my home budgeting and expenses. I don't want something to break in my home, but I know that I'll be covered if it does. Thank you SHW!

Excellent customer service. Recommend to everyone. They explained the different plans thoroughly and suggested the best plan. The network is wider than other home warranty companies. The coverage is much better than competitors. They made it easier for me to choose a home warranty company and a plan within Select Home Warranty.
