They are not even deserving of a single star. It should be negative 5 stars. Select Home Warranty is a waste of money but they were more than happy to take mine. Calling me the minute I submitted my number asking for more info constantly trying to upsell me. I bought a 1 year plan for my home. I made the first claim 2 months later because my air conditioner stopped working in the middle of summer. After making the claim they said they didn’t have a technician available and to get my own. They then refused to cover the claim first. They said I didn’t wait 30 days to make the first claim so I pointed out the dates then they said they don’t cover any internal electrical??? Most home appliances have internal electrical components. What does this plan cover?
I have made several calls to file to try and get them to cover the claim even speaking to the supervisor (who was rude). For the most part everything is scripted so they just keep repeating their excuses not to pay. The call center must be outsourced. Everyone speaks with a foreign accent. Some are incredibly hard to understand and when you tell them you can’t understand them they get an attitude. Pretty much It is any excuse to not pay until you give up. Incredible waste of money. I’m happy I didn’t waste more when they were trying to sell me 3 or 4 or 5 years at a time. I will definitely not recommend them to anyone unless you want to throw your money away. I just wish I could get my money back

I had been with this company for over a year. Utilized the repair services just once, for my dishwasher. First off they said they had no one to come and check it out, need to find my own technician, and have them send Select Home Warranty the estimate for repair. They denied the amount from the technician, and offered me $150 for services that was costing twice that amount. My dishwasher is only 4 years old, as is only used maybe once a week. It was the heater exchange that was faulty. Select Home Warranty told me I should just go and buy another dishwasher, instead of fixing a 4 year old dishwasher. I went ahead and paid out my pocket for the technician's services, and my dishwasher is working like new. I decided to cancel services with SHW, and was told there was a $75 dollar cancellation fee, even though I paid month to month and had no contract.
SHW offered me some other options other then cancelling services, which would cost me over $500.for another year. Of course I declined, and told the gentleman that he was trying to exploit me, either pay $75 to leave their services or pay 500 and continue. I declined and said I will pay the $75 unwillingly, but I will warn others of their corrupt policy.

This company is not to be trusted. They took over a month to send out an electrician and left us with only half the power in our home working. In addition they left our 2 small children for days without hot water and refused to cover our hot water heater. Please do not use them. Look at their reviews on Facebook and the BBB first. Their web page reviews are fake.

This is one of worse company I have seen. They always refuse claims based on some pretext. I will advise nobody should take policy from these people. We should write online review. We should also file lawsuits against this company. I think, they are some kind of fraud/scam. Gov should stop them. We need to meet Congressmen and Senators in DC to show how bad business are scamming common people.

We purchased this home warranty with the purchase of our new home on last year. We added the septic tank coverage to the platinum plan. We never use the warranty until our septic tank had issues about 2 months ago. They sent out a company that wasn't qualified to work on our system, but we still had to pay the service fee of $125.00. I called them to let them know and they told me to get my own contractor.
The company I call charged $180.00 dollar service fee. I called them and they said they would reimburse the service fee and to send them over the quote for review or I could pay it and submit for reimbursement. I sent the quote to them for review and they told me to wait 24-48 hours for them to review. 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 asked them, "was that in the policy" and was told, "It's in the fine print", which I still can't find.

Sales agent talked to me to get 7yr coverage on platinum plan and I did. My refrigerator damper door goes down. Select contact a company in NY and I'm in CA. This company subcontract to the local repair service. They went out and looked at my fridge. The part cost $365.00 and labor cost $155.00. Select go back to me an offer $350 due to cost effective not to repair my $10K fridge. The agent suggested me to go to amazon to look for another fridge (?). Do more research about Select (SWH). More customers complaints about this service. Now I realized that this company have their claim office in other country so can call anytime you like but to result it is your luck, The only person speaking promptly and you can understand is the plan sales agent you can get trap. Stay away from this company.

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.

One of the worst consumer experiences of my life. So good on the "sales end." Then you are both lucky if your claim is paid and forget quick service. They have you waiting for repairs that can leave your property damaged. I had to get things fixed myself and still only hope for some compensation. You can't talk to anyone in a true customer service role once you have a plan. Your phone number is captured so you can't get to the original department that sold you a plan. You literally have to borrow a friend's phone that hasn't been captured. I could go on all day. Seriously seriously awful. I had a previous warranty company that looks like the greatest thing since sliced bread after this company.

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.

Complete waste of money, but they have some amazing salespeople that worked wonders on me. I got a top of the line plan, or so I thought, and in three years of trying to get work done, I've only ever gotten the air conditioning looked at + one pound of freon (once) and a repair to make my dishwasher close. Everything else they will say isn't covered even when I specifically reply to them with the language from the contract copied, but hey, I guess that's better than times when I've paid the service fee and then learn that the repair is not covered and the fee is not refundable. No dashboard to clearly track claims, and absolutely no way to talk to a human being about getting a policy refund.

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.

I had to pay $75 for someone to come out and look at my Panasonic digital dryer that was making a small squeaking sound. The repairman said he would get back to me once he spoke to Select Warranty which never happened until I initiated the phone call a week later. Once I chased down Select Warranty, they told me that my 6-year-old dryer was “unrepairable” and that they would only give me $125 for a new one. I’m upset because it’s not as if the dryer doesn’t work, because it does, they just didn’t want to fix it. I’m also upset because $125 for a new dryer is pennies going towards a new purchase. They also said that they would take away my old dryer that still works which I’m sure they were going to fix it and sell it again anyway. They are crooks, don’t do it!!

Had high expectations when I got their Platinum policy but it's absolutely the worst. In FL with the heat index in the 100s. AC is down and not cooling. Tried submitting ticket(s) but their dashboard does not show tickets or provide status (broke) of tickets submitted so it's up to you to call and unravel where things stand. And read carefully policy sections, 5.4, 5.5, unless it's an emergency, defined by gas line or live electric, they say it will 2 work days before they get to it. Also, know you call their toll free, you are talking to someone reading a script in Philippines, and good luck with trying to get a hold of a supervisor.
Hours after ticket submission I call again, the agent tells me there is a ticket and is being routed to dispatch but it can be up to 2 work days, meaning today is Friday and may not act or get back till Tuesday of next week. She also says for me to monitor my inbox for updates. No callbacks! Not sure how they expect you to sit in a hot house with no AC for 4-5 days with the hope for Select will do something, I am not hopeful.

I had filed a claim for 2 bathrooms for toilet problem and sink as it doesn’t hold the water, and that drains slow. As well as 1 tub. The plumber came out and did the work and called it in and was surprised how bad they are as they made me pay to 75.00 fees even though the plumber was here today. They said it is 2 separate bathrooms so they both have a fee. Then the plumber told them that the sink stopper was bad as it wouldn’t seal correctly and would not hold the water and that they needed to be replaced. They came back with they will only cover the parts which is about 20.00 for all 3 since my bathroom has fuel sinks and diagnostics but won’t cover the labor.

I enrolled with Select Home Warranty from last year. Didn’t have any issue so no need to use them until recently when my fridge made loud noise. They quickly sent a technician to check ($65) and he mentioned the motor damper is broken so the motor cannot open/close the vent properly so it keeps doing it. 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 already spent too much time on this so have decided paying for them myself to fix (still waiting). I won't renew my insurance since very low trust. Their insurance cost is low for a reason, don't do SHW, find a better one.

We have had this 4 years. Every claim has either been denied or dragged out forever. By the time you pay your deductible and get a repairman you gain nothing from the claim. Will not cover water heaters if they leak. Will not cover damage if you have a leak in the attic and your whole kitchen ceiling falls in. Will not cover HVAC if you don't have 3 yrs. of service records. Even if you just bought the house. Long dragged out phone conversations.

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. But I will be switching to another company and will never EVER recommend Select Home Warranty.

Do not enroll with this company. All they do is try to find their way out of a claim rather than help homeowners with their problems. They have the worst refund/reimbursement policy, and one has to fight them tooth and nail for what should be coming one's way in terms of reimbursements. I had to make over 20 calls over 6 months' span to receive reimbursement check and despite promises I am yet to receive it. Do not enroll over a year since they calculate the overall cost of your membership (claims and all) and most of the time you end up in negative territory if you decide to cancel your account with them. You would end up with no refund if you had a claim despite you paying for multiple years of premiums.

Terrible, terrible service and misinformation about what's covered. This is the worst warranty company I've ever dealt with. I'm sorry I am under contract with them. The people they've outsourced for your initial phone calls cannot be understood and provide customers with no confidence. The company was unable to provide a plumber for me - which was surprising - so I had to find my own. Then I went through multiple people who each asked me again and again for my address, email, etc., when I called for authorization of payment to the plumber I hired. 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. I can protest this denial but it means I have to do so by phone and I don't want to go through that frustration of speaking with their outsourced phone staff.

Scam. They will deny claims and deny claims until you give up. They “promise” to pay for claims and the checks never come. When I declined a payment more than 24 days after the check was due, they said they didn’t pay it because a payment declined. It declined because I turned off the card More that 15 days AFTER the check was due. Scam company and fake good reviews. Can’t leave messages for the claims reps and can’t get thru to one. Can’t see any claim information such as status, payment confirmations or receipts and no way to “manage your account” for their website. I would NOT recommend this company.

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. This entire experience has been beyond frustrating, and I will be reporting both companies to the Better Business Bureau. I highly recommend avoiding both Select Home Warranty and Mosqueda Refrigeration at all costs.

Select stated that the price was too high, and the contractor was not approved but they sent that contractor to me.

Select Home Warranty is by far the WORST home warranty company to deal with. Their primary purpose of existence is deny your claim. I have had several claims with them over the years and 1 out of 8 claims got resolved, they never cover A/C claims. They have the nerve to request 3 years of maintenance history for the A/C. If you're thinking about signing up with Select, run the other direction.

If you are looking for a company to take your money, waste your time, and deny every claim (after taking their fee first) then Select Home Warranty is right for you. Do you want to wait on hold for hours just to have a representative be rude to you? Do you want shady contractors to lie about the root cause of an issue so that your home warranty can easily deny it? Then I have good news!
Select Home Warranty, even for a home warranty, is a legal scam. They will fine print their way out of anything and even if something is covered, they will wait forever then close it out "on accident" or because too much time has passed. If you are considering purchasing a policy, do yourself a favor. Take half the money you were going to use on this policy, light it on fire, hold the flaming money in your hand until it burns you, and put the rest of the money aside for any future breakdowns. This is still a more logical and enjoyable experience than the alternative.

Do not purchase. They are a scam. We have never filed a claim before in all of the 18 years as homeowners. My husband deployed and our current home warranty had expired and I had not renewed. 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. I have filed a complaint with the BBB and asked for an appeal with the company, but have not heard back. Any positive reviews are likely from customers they offer incentives, so buyer be very very aware. I would avoid this company.

I had four (4) home insured with Select Home Warranty and I purchased upgraded service plan for each. On a positive note, the sales team was friendly and seemingly informative and the duration of the contract was good. Unfortunately, everything changed once I tried to submit any claims throughout the duration of my service agreements. Either one and/or two things would happen - delayed response to confirm contractor, inept contractor rep shows up who is incentivize to try to upsell me some non-covered services, and/or Select Home Warranty rep would review my claim and 2 days later they would arbitrarily tell me how my claim for supposedly covered item was denied because of some (fill in blank) reason.

I signed up with Select Home warranty in July 2023 for one property and I signed up my second property in February 2024. It is always easy to file a claim either through the website or on the phone. When I signed up, the contract said Select Home Warranty will come to review and fix any item that is covered, and would replace the parts if it could not be fixed. My first complain for my first property was a clogged sink. The person they sent either does not know what he was doing or was a scam. He said something has to be replaced. For 3 weeks, nothing was done, my house became so smelly that I had to call an independent handyman to come and look at it. He found out that I only need a snake to unclog the sink. For the second property, I have a problem with the fridge and I was told I have to buy the part myself after paying the call fee of $65. 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 will not recommend anyone to sign up with Select Home Warranty. I paid one year premium in advance for one of my homes and have paid 13 months for the other home. I have received absolutely no service in return till date. Just a waste of money!

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.

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.

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!

My experience with Select Home Warranty has been a nightmare! When I had the first claim, it took them two days to say they had a company to work on my refrigerator. The company was not even one in my city and had bad reviews. I called them, they said they were not available for two weeks. When I called Select back, they said it would take 24 to 48 hours to get someone else. That's when I called a business that sent someone the same day but would have nothing to do with Select. They said they had had problems with their demands to get cheap parts, etc. When I tried to cancel select, they argued with me for an hour to try to make me keep the policy and transferred me to three different people. Finally, a manager said he would cancel it but would keep $500 dollars, and it would take 3 to four weeks for me to get the refund! This company has terrible service.

While researching plans, I discovered Select Home Warranty. They seemed highly rated and had a great price. The salesman told me that I could not see a sample contract until I actually purchased one. With his promises and assurances of coverage, I purchased three years paid in advance. As soon as I received the contract and read through the limitations and exclusion, I realized this was not the contract for me. The coverage for my type and age of appliances was vague and very limited. Entire systems of my house were excluded. I called the sales person and asked to terminate the policy. He stated that the exclusions and limitations did not apply to my type of policy, but stated that he could not actually state that in the policy. He said that he would seek permission to make some changes and send me a new policy.
As soon as I received the new policy, I again determined it was not good for my property and requested termination. No response. I sent a message to their general email account and was replied to with a customer loyalty phone number to call. I had the pleasure of listening to a foreign call center read from a script that claimed that I did not understand my contract. Every time that I would ask to terminate my contract or speak to a supervisor, I was placed on hold for 10 minutes, only to have the same script reader return and read another script. This has gone on for a week of daily phone calls and emails, listening and reading generic script. Each person that I spoke with (5 so far) I told in no uncertain terms to terminate my contract without further discussion and issue a full refund as per the contract. While typing this review, I have finally received a email notification of a refund.

Send them documentation from the other company's technician. I did this and they returned my email saying it must have been a Freon problem and they don’t cover that. I sent the diagnostic evaluation as asked and evidently it didn’t matter. I will definitely be looking for another REPUTABLE company.

The worst home warranty service out there. Purchased a policy over a year ago and had two unsuccessful claims. Plumbing claim resulted in an unqualified plumber being sent to my residence. Bosch microwave/convection oven which retailed at $2500.00, they depreciated to $95.00 after 3 years in operation. Totally misrepresented their services. Buyer beware. A totally scam outfit.

I wish I could give 0 Star to Select Home Warranty! Stay away from this company! I bought the SHW (Select Home Warranty) Platinum Care till 2030 in the autumn 2023, because the SHW Sales promised me in emails last autumn that SHW will cover all the parts, labor (including AC) and I just need to pay the service call. The AC stopped working in the beginning of June and I made the claim, the SHW assigned technician to the diagnosis while I was also onsite, it was the Mechanical Failure of the compressor. While SHW changed the contents of the diagnosis report said that was the Electrical Failure and not covered by the warranty. Technician has already sent detailed report that is indicated mechanical failure to SHW, I’ve also forwarded the technician diagnosis report, and hold a 3 parties call (I/SHW/Technician). Both the technician and his report have confirmed that is the mechanical failure not an electrical failure.
But SHW still insists that is the electrical failure and not in coverage, SHW can NOT provide the evidence that compressor has the electrical issues – short to the ground, they also refused to send electrical technician to the house. I have also paid 3rd party independent technician to diagnose the AC, he has also confirmed that is the mechanical problems of compressor, not any electrical issues. In the SHW Agreement 6.3.6, it’s said that “This Agreement covers the following air conditioning components: (i) Condenser Fan motors; (ii) compressors; (iii) condensers; and …” It has been two months and I’ve contacted SHW for more than 20 times by voices & emails, the Dallas weather is so hot and I have 88 year old mother. I just notice so many complains on BBB and Reddit, shames on me to pay the money to SHW, really do not understand why such a scam company could still be exit in USA.

We reached out on several occasions to utilize the policy we paid for. There were repeated delays. The company was never able to provide a technician to go out to our property. We were required to provide our own, which we did. When we contacted them with the information that the professional we paid to go out to review the appliances and the furnace and the HVAC system, we were asked for photographs, which we provided multiple times. We were then told that no one could help us because suddenly the appliances that this company was happy to take our money to insure were no longer covered. Or we were offered the absolutely ridiculous quote of $150.00 to replace a dishwasher. Despite numerous requests to speak to a supervisor and the resolutions department, we were denied.
We will not be renewing and we will be making sure that anyone we talk to knows how unhelpful and worthless this company is. They refuse to do anything. Then they had the utter gall to ask us if we wanted to renew with them. We took the time to research dishwashers since they would not send their own technician. We requested $675 to replace the dishwasher that they were happy to include when they wanted to take our money in the first place. This reasonable request was repeatedly denied.

I signed up with their service in December of last year. I called in a claim on a washer. They came out twice and said they couldn’t fix the machine after I waited 2 months. They told me they wouldn’t warranty the washer because it was broken due to not normal wear and tear. When they first came out they said they could repair it. I respected their response and bought a new washer. Now my refrigerator broke. Waited 8 weeks for them to tell me they couldn’t get the parts. They told me they would give me a 150 dollars for the fridge. That is the cost they charged me for two service calls. The fridge cost 2500 to replace. Their customer service department is a joke and you can’t get return phone calls. If you want to be ripped off this is the company for you.

We purchased a 5-year warranty with Select Home Warranty, set to begin on 5/20/2024. On 6/25/2024, a claim was filed regarding an error message on our dishwasher which was not draining. On 7/1/2024, Select sent out a technician from a local repair shop and determined the issue was covered under the warranty policy. The technician ordered the necessary parts. The parts were received on 7/10/2024 and installed on 7/18/2024. On 7/19/2024, Select was informed that the repairs did not correct the issue, the same error code was being displayed and the dishwasher was not draining. Select failed to send out a technician or return any calls until 7/29/2024. On 7/29/2024, a technician was scheduled to visit but did not show up. Select was again asked to send out a technician from a different company, as the one initially provided was not returning calls to us and Select.
On 8/1/2024, Select was contacted again and asked to send a technician from a different company, as the initial company was still not responding to either party. The initial technician showed up that day and diagnosed a faulty control board. However, since Select had also transferred the job to a different repair shop, a new diagnosis was required. Every time we call for an update, and we have to call because they don't call back or update the ticket, they respond according to a set script and don't provide any real answers.

This company is impossible to contact on line other than to submit a claim. I submitted a claim concerning a 13-year-old refrigerator in July 2024. I got an answer from them telling me to call... and they supplied a number. I emailed back asking if we could just take care of it by email because I am an 82-year-old widow and don't do well on the phone. I got no response whatsoever on either the claim, or the request for email instead of phone. I did submit another claim several months ago for a microwave and was told it was "too old to fix" (13 years) and they would send me $90 toward a new one.
You can't replace a built-in microwave for that amount, and I had to go buy one myself and then submit all sorts of receipts etc. in order to get the $90, which finally arrived several months later. NOW I am trying to cancel as I still have almost 6 months left on my contract and there is just NO WAY to get ahold of anybody other than calling and I can't do that. I am thoroughly disgusted with this company. I wish I had done better research before getting it. Please, if you are considering this company, read the reviews. Their ads that "things will be replaced or repaired" is bogus. Replacement is contingent on depreciation value and repair calls for a $75 "service fee". After studying my contract, I see that there is also a $75 "cancellation fee". I guess I am just out the money I paid for this stupid service and will have to take care of my appliances as if I don't have it at all.

You will regret wasting your time and money. They will find any reason to reject your claim and hand you off to 20 different representatives that each give a different story. I had a simple claim and called for authorization and they approved it. Then they rejected it asking who I spoke to. Don't they have those records?

If this is your first choice for a home warranty company, run for the hills. I almost had my 3rd heart attack just trying to cancel my policy. I had to close my bank account just to get rid of them. If you cancel they will do everything in their power to make you keep it. I mean everything. By the time I got it cancelled I was so upset I wanted to kick in the wall. Having a warranty is great, but if you find the right one. I am glad I only had to file 2 claims, the first they did send a check but I had to pay for my garbage disposal and pay to have it put in. You know the old adage, it is too old. I then had to buy a new air conditioner because they denied the claim to fix the compressor. I did not want them to replace my AC, just fix it. At the end of the day, I cannot afford to pay for both. So all I can say, is if you want to use this company, you will never be able to cancel it. They were relentless.

Select Home Warranty will do everything to deny any claim. You will waste your monthly payment for what they cover because they don't want to pay out anything. Its a monthly payment, BUT if cancel they charge $75 to cancel? If you buy a home with older units like Central Air or Furnace and get their package they won't replace or repair anything if it goes out in 2 years down the road because their clause asks for 3 yrs of service checkups. Their customer service is out of country, can hardly understand them, their call in line is burdensome, don't understand the real issue and callbacks and requests for more info is a joke, you do all their work!. EXAMPLE: called for repair they said they would get a technician out (it was the AC unit) hot all summer...waited for two days, get an email saying, "We can't find anyone," so I was to go get a technician...It was hot...No technicians available for about two weeks.
Got the technician their finally they gave me the issue. I did two estimates for Select and sent them off...delay times another 5 days. I am doing SELECT'S JOB! The unit was the R12 type no longer and very expensive to replace ($3k) to totally to update system was $9k. SELECT paid neither estimate!!!! SELECT is a joke and a waste of 3 yrs of monthly payments! The issue is that their reps say on the phone "We don't need pictures, we don't even care how old your unit is...YOU'RE COVERED!" Bull! Don't believe it...They are like any corporation they make money by promising you everything and delivering nothing...It's a scam with reviews coming from their own people. This review is real...Better to put the $50 a month into a savings account and use it as a repair kitty...SELECT HOME WARRANTY ZERO STARS!

This company needs to be investigated for improper practices. They are quick to take your money and you’ll feel like you’re getting a great deal. What they don’t tell you is their “contractors” all have terrible ratings. I’ve had contractors just not show up and Select doesn’t care. I’ve told them I don’t want to be assigned those companies again yet they will be assigned as the first company again. I legitimately think this company is a scam. Please investigate this company before they continue to rip off customers.

Your service is extremely disappointing! I've been dealing with a broken washing machine for almost a month now. After the second technician came to my house (the first one lost my information), I was told that the cost to repair it exceeds the value of the washer. What's the point of having a warranty service if they can't actually help? I paid $65 just to have a technician tell me it can't be fixed, and now they're only offering $175 to replace it. There's no way I can buy a new washer for $175. Thanks for nothing! I will be canceling my five-year contract and moving to another warranty company, one that can actually help.

My experience with Select Home Warranty has been anywhere from exasperating to stressful to anger producing. I paid in advance for three years and stayed for seven months. I just canceled today and am to receive a refund for less than half of that payment - in 4-6 week!. They pride themselves on their low co-payments but, you need to read the fine print on their contract. They DO NOT pay for any installation costs! I missed this in the contract because it was buried in between many other things they don't pay for. Seems to be it should have been its own line item! As a result, it covers very little of the cost of a truly broken item.
In addition, calling them to file claims is difficult. I believe their call center is offshore and, generally, for me it has been difficult to understand what their agents are saying. I also filed a claim prior to Memorial Day and it took me until July 5th to receive a check in the mail for the money I paid for the service. I have gone back to another company I have used before whose practices are more straightforward and above board The line from the contract reads: This policy covers mechanical breakdowns, it does not cover shelves, door handles, doors, hinges, knobs and buttons, door seals, freon, damage caused by freon leak, displays, latches, timers, leveling equipment, clogged drains or lines, cosmetic issues, gaskets, leak searches, lights, noise, refrigerants, valves, dispensers, installation, electrical failures, upgrades. Yes, I missed the "installation" part - which means they will not pay the labor costs of the contractor they send you.

I purchased Select Home Warranty last year. In the last 12 months I have submitted 3 claims to this company and all the results have been “regular maintenance” OR “the leak is not within the dwelling.” They send out awful technicians who don’t do their due diligence. They return the findings back to the company without even trying to diagnose the problem and then of course select home warranty rejects the claim. The plumber said my leak was under my house, I called and got a second option after Select said they wouldn’t pay and wouldn’t you know it was literally in the kitchen cabinet under the sink. So $1100 out of pocket dollars later I learned to just save the money I would use purchasing a home warranty and put that towards my next catastrophe. This company is the absolute worst, they have awful customer service and the technician companies they send out are sub par. Just save your time and money.

Select Home Warranty is a scam. First, they have wrong address on my account since the very start of this contract (April 2024). I've asked them to update this at least 5 times and all I get is, "We've escalated it and it should be changed in a few days." Second, you never see any details from the technician who comes out for the claim. This last claim I entered twice before I got a response from Select Home Warranty. The technician came, looked at the claim, took a few notes and left. I had to call him and Select Home Warranty 2 days later to find out the status of my claim. I finally get an email back stating my appliance can't be fixed and they will pay-out $125 after I submit a receipt for the replacement and installation.
I called to dispute their findings. I escalated to the Claims department. Was told Raymond, claims department manager would call me back within three hours. He didn't, so I called back... This time I talked to Dennis also a claims depart manager. He further denied my claim, saying that there was no one above that I could escalate to and that his decision was final. We both reviewed the warranty document and there is clear evidence that his judgment is false, yet he say no. I'm not thru with this claim or Select Home Warranty. I will continue to escalate resolve this matter to my satisfaction. If you are searching for Home Warranty just know this the salesman will say anything for the sale.... But Select Home Warranty will not resolve any claim to your satisfaction.

We signed on with Select Home Warranty in August of 2023. We have since then tried 3 different times to have a tech come to our home. They have given us fake companies. The phone numbers do not work for the companies provided, the addresses for the companies are either an empty lot or they do not even have a business address. The phone numbers for these companies are fake, one says to text only and the other rings and goes nowhere not even a voicemail. In addition, they will tell you the technicians in your area are “tied up” and cannot service you. We were told to find our own people but after finding out they too are terrible with paying claims we avoided that as we know our tech would never get paid. I’d also make note that they have had multiple lawsuits since 2020 and they have not paid any of their judgments.
Even their employees on LinkedIn are fraudulent. One profile on LinkedIn was using a woman’s picture from her Facebook but she has not ever worked for SHW and lives in TX. Very sketchy profile for the COO and the CEO is non existent. Even better, once googling the multiple locations for this business, most of locations are again lost, for rent or no sign of their company around. All of this to say, this is a SCAM, I am not even sure how they are still in business.

When my oven had issues with pre heating I filed a claim. They sent a technician out promptly and I paid him my 75.00 deductible. He submitted to Select his recommendation. Select approved the part but not the labor. This is when their technician ghosted me. We waited over a month contacting both the technician and Select weekly for updates. Finally Select offered me 300.00 (cost of the part). They would not reimburse me the deductible nor make any other concession. Considering I was without an oven for over a month I was not impressed with their customer service.
They would not allow me to speak with a manager and it was apparent that they were based off shore. Communication was a challenge. The biggest issue was that they could not find a technician located in my market. The one they hired was over 60 miles away. I live in a community of over 140k residents and am 20 miles from Ocala. I will be canceling Select as soon as I receive my 300.00 check which by the way takes 30 days to process.

I purchased this warranty in Nov of '23. I never received a policy. When I needed to use it I only had my cc statement to verify the company and phone. I never received anything from SHW, I called on Sun 7/28 10:51am to have an A/C repaired. I got a recording saying No one was available and would be contacted within 24 hrs. I then contacted a repair man. I had guests in the condo and it was 97 degrees outside. The repair man repaired the unit. It needed a new blower motor. SHW called me at 11:28am telling me someone was scheduled to come out on 7/31.
I informed them I had already had the repair done. I was told to submit the receipt and it would be reviewed. I received a call today denying the claim. Reason; it had not been approved. No one was around to answer a call nor was I informed it needed to be approved as I had no policy and no one answered their 24 hr claim dept.
