I called to get a current estimate to renew my 2-year policy. My sales rep gave me a better package (3.5 years) and price. He also lowered my service call fee for the duration of this renewal contract by 25%.

George ** helped me this morning to get my policy set up with Select Home Warranty. I am looking forward to this new home warranty service as my last was getting very pricey. I was impressed also with the eagerness to help me get the best value for my plan. It was about helping me and not just getting another policy set up. I am hoping that the claim part of the plan works as well as the policy/account.

Returned call to Isac and was very pleased with him. He talked to me about a six year offer! He was very good to explain the offer that when I ask question about the offer he was good at answering me and making sure that I understood everything about the offer! As we was closing he ask me and told me if I had any more questions to call him. Isac made sure that I had his phone number and ask me to replete the number to him so that we both knew that I had it! Isac was very good to deal with and taking the time to make sure that I understood everything with renewing my contact.

Select Home Warranty will stick with your problem until it is fixed at no additional service fee charge. We had an A/C go out and it needed 3 parts fixed and each time we called them out a new technician was sent out to address the issue.

They sent out a repair man. My dishwasher runs better than when it was new. It was not running like it should. There were a lot of broken parts, all of it was fixed. Very small service fee. The repair man was polite and went right to work. It took less than a hour or so, he had to order parts. They took about two weeks. The company sent out the same person to install it. Took about 2 hours or so. He gave us the company phone number.

I have been using Select Home Warranty for years on multiple properties. I love that you can get sprinklers covered.

I was promptly contacted by Peter via text and email after submitting an online inquiry. I did have some trouble figuring out when to call back, as email responses were vague, so I just called and happen to speak directly to him. He was helpful. He did initially quote the same price I had seen online but when I said, "well, it says on your website to call about additional discounts," he said, "Yes, I can offer you another 10% off." Additionally, they will offer 5 and 10 year plans, maybe others, in which you can lock in your price and those are less by a few hundred dollars. Since I just ordered today, I am hoping the services and subcontracted technicians are decent, b/c if they are not, then I'm locked into a contract for several more years.

Reps are always friendly and helpful. But the last rep I had in Aug 2022 (when I signed up another rental property with a contract) lied about a previous contract that I had sold the property. He told me I would receive a $500 refund on the sold property contract. He did not cancel the policy and there is nothing in the company notes about what he told me.
Oh course there isn't. I own 4 policies at this moment and I am in the process of cancelling each one. Super angry about how customer service handles lies by rep. She basically said he lied to me but oh well. I went from a happy customer with 4 policies to cancelling because they don't honor their reps words. And they are charging me $75 per contract to cancel. So angry. Do not do business with this company.

Warning - Do not use Select Home Warranty - They will not cover your appliance failure costs, and they will be very difficult to work with. My story: Purchased a 6-year-old home, and as a part of the transaction negotiated a Home Warranty to be included, paid for by the seller. The seller provided us with "Platinum Care" one year Home warranty which the Select Home Warranty marketed as a "shield your wallet" product. Platinum care is the highest level of coverage sold by Select Home Warranty.
7 months into our ownership of the home, when we shifted from using the HVAC system from heat to cooling, we started getting a Error Code 86 showing on my thermostat, and the system could not keep the house cool. I called the Select Home Warranty number, 855-267-3532, and was instructed by a recording to file my claim online at selecthomewarranty.com. I completed the on-line claim form and waited for a response.
In the meantime, I contacted the HVAC company that had originally installed the HVAC system (there was a sticker on the unit in the garage), and I had them come out and assess the problem. The HVAC repair company identified three different problems: 1) the outdoor condenser unit needed to be cleansed, 2) the freon level was low and needed to be recharged, and 3) the communications board had failed and needed to be replaced. It took several weeks for the replacement comm board to arrive. I worked with the HVAC repair company to get the cost of the comm board part covered under the original equipment warranty. So, they charged me only for the labor of installing the new comm board. When everything was said and done, I paid a bill for $1,007.50 from the HVAC repair company.
Having not heard back for Select Home Warranty for 2 months after I filed my initial claim, I called the 855-267-3532 number again, and waited/insisted on speaking to a live person to find out what the status of my claim was. The representative that helped me first told me that she could not find any policy written for my property - even though I was holding an invoice from them with a copy of the check paid by the title company in my hand. She asked me several time for my policy number, which I told her I didn't have.
The cancelled check had a file number on it which I gave her, but she said it was of no help in finding the policy. I told her all I had was an invoice from SHW and a copy of the check paid to them out of escrow. She told me that because she could not find a policy, she could not help me and that I needed to hang up. She suggested to me that I had called the wrong home warranty company. I asked her to transfer me to her supervisor. She informed me that since I did not know the policy number, that she could not transfer me to a supervisor. I asked her what my next steps would be and what she expected me to do with this situation. She said she could not help me. Full stop.
Finally, the rep asked me for the invoice number that I had in my hand. I read her the number and she said "oh, that's the policy number!" I'm thinking to myself: how could you be blowing me off a minute ago, and now you have my policy number from the invoice we discussed 10 minutes before... The rep then proceeded to tell me that she found my original claim in their database.
When I asked why I had not been contacted (I provided phone and email address on the on-line claim form), she had no answer. She instead transitioned the conversation to what the problem had been with the air conditioning and what I had done about it. I told her that there had been three problems identified and that I had them fixed. Now, all I needed was to be reimbursed for my $1,007.50 expense. She told me that I would be receiving an Email with instructions in it on how to scan and send a copy of the bill I had paid for the repairs the HVAC system.
Within a few minutes after I had gotten off the phone with the SHW rep, I received 2 emails from SHWclaims stating: "We thank you for contacting us with additional information regarding your A/C, Cooling claim. We are in the process of finding a local technician to come to your home to diagnose your A/C, Cooling. This process usually takes up to 48 hours, and an email will be sent to you with the Technician's information." I'm thinking: "this is unbelievable... Do they not understand the problem has already been fixed?" After thinking about it, I decided to respond back to the email again summarizing the already completed repair status, attaching my expense invoice (again), and again asking for reimbursement of the $1007.50 that I was out of pocket on the AC system repairs.
A few days later, I received an Email back from SHWclaims stating: "After a Review of the diagnosis concerning the specific issue with your HVAC system, your unit does need Freon. It has been determined that your Policy Does Not Cover this issue, the HVAC system needs Freon and unfortunately Freon Recapture is not covered by your policy. Please see section 6.3.6 of the policy agreement." I'm thinking to myself: 1) I was not aware that there were any repair limitations, aside from possibly a deductible, and 2) what about the other two problems that were not freon related? How can you send me an email only addressing freon when there were multiple problems listed on the repair invoice?
So, I sent back another Email to SHW claims summarizing the status of the claim and asking about reimbursement for the non freon related issues. within hours I received an Email back asking me to call the SHW number to discuss my claim over the phone, which I did. The SHW rep informed me that in addition to freon not being covered by the warranty, that cleaning of the coils was not covered by the warranty, and that labor required to replace the failed comm board was (you guessed it), not covered by the home warranty they sold. She quoted me subparagraphs in the policy (a copy of which I had never received from the title company or anyone else – whose fault that is, I don’t know.)
I informed the representative that I felt it was FRAUD for SHW to market a home warranty with the catch phrase "shield your wallet", that doesn't cover the costs of repair when the system clearly failed. I had their "Platinum Care", top of the line policy, and I have nothing in terms of coverage. So, now that this company has exposed who they really are, I want to get the word out, so others don't buy this worthless policy.
I also want to comment that SHW strategically makes it very difficult to communicate with them by using on-line claim submittal forms that aren't responded to, sending vague boilerplate emails, and having call center reps who struggle with the english language and seem to be trained to stonewall and not answer questions. At one point the SHW rep told me: "we've already provided resolution for this claim", to which I said: "your resolution is to pay me nothing", and she said "yes". I told her this was NOT a resolution. Clearly, this is a corpoarate strategy to get claimants to give up and just go away. SWH claims: if you are reading this, refer to claim# **. You will see what I've reported here is in your files under this number.

First contractor assigned to repair the clothes washer was a garage door repair company, who would not take the claim, and took over a week until SHW finally assigned a new contractor. I upheld my end of the contract and confirmed a service time, provided access to the premise and laundry unit located within 12 feet of an exterior door on the first floor, and diagnostic was completed on Sept 28th, 16 days after claim submission.
My contract state that a contractor would be assigned to my claim and have a contractor at my premise within 48 business hours of claim submission as they had sold me on the "Platinum Plan". I paid the contractor the $45 service call fee. The contractor then kept me informed daily for 5 business days, that SHW would not correct their online portal for their account so they could submit not only the diagnostic for my claim but many others, and that SHW would not answer the contractor number provided to the approved contractor, and would not return phone calls to them. I then called the SHW customer claim line with the contractor on a three way call so that the claim could be submitted, and it finally was with me and the contractor on the phone at the same time at 5pm EST on Oct. 4th.
The claim department at that time guaranteed a resolution with the 3rd party witness on the line, within 48 business hours. That timeline was not met and today, Oct. 6th at 5pm no resolution existed and the target for resolution was moved another 48 business hours. Since SHW has not been able to service ANY claim in 3 years, I seek full refund. SHW has yet to operate in good faith or uphold any contractual obligations defined in their service contract. BUYER BEWARE - They have great domestic USA sales teams that will provide great smoke and mirrors to get you to sign on. This is just one examples of the 6 claims I have made over 3 years, not a single some has been completed, it has always resulted in me giving up after a month or more and just paying my own contractors to repair.

I am not going to provide my opinions; I will just let the facts speak for themselves. 8/24/2022 I renewed my Select Home Warranty (SHW) for 5 years. 8/31/2022 I submitted a claim using the online form to repair my drier. 9/1/2022 SHW sent me an email that they had no available techs and that I could book my own, but they would still search for available techs for my drier. 9/5/2022 I contacted SHW to say that I did not want the “schedule it myself.” My claim was noted that I want an SHW tech, it did not matter how far out that schedule was. I received an e-mail same day advising that they are searching for a tech. 9/6/2022 I received a second form email advising that they will continue to search. Later, I received a second form email from SHW advising that they could not find a tech and I could schedule my own service. SHW was previously advised I did not want to use this option.
9/7/2022 I replied to the form email asking when the earliest was that they could schedule a tech to my house, SHW replied advising me to call SHW. I contacted SHW via phone. I again advised SHW that I do not want to use the schedule it myself option, it does not matter how far the date was I just wanted it scheduled and on the books.
9/23/2022 I had not heard anything from SHW about my claim, so I called again. They advised me that Select was still working on the claim and that I had the option to schedule my own tech. For the third time, I advised Select that I did not want to schedule my own tech and apply for reimbursement, that I wanted to use SHW’s network. SHW continued to advise I could schedule myself, and after a month of trying I wanted to end my contract and receive a refund for the remaining amount I am owed on the 5-year plan I signed up for. The rep transferred me to Lisa in Customer Loyalty, who again escalated my claim and advised they would find a tech and I would receive a free tech visit. I advised that they had until 9/30 to resolve or I would cancel the policy.
9/23/2022 SHW scheduled me with BGH Electrical. BGH contacted me to get the serial number and model number and to schedule a tech. 9/26/2022 BGH visit, the SHW tech advised that I need a roller and a drum due to wear and tear. He said he would submit the repairs to SHW for approval. I also had to pay the tech a $75 consultation fee, even though I was told my next consultation would be free.
9/26/2022 I contacted SHW to find out next steps. Later that day, SHW sent me an email requesting pictures of the serial number and model number, both were already provided to the tech assigned to the claim. I called back asking why SHW is delaying this claim even though they have the info they need. SHW advised me that they need the serial and model number to determine if I need a new unit or repairs They assured me that they would process and approve this claim.
9/27/2022 I received an e-mail from SHW advising that they were in receipt of my pictures of the serial and model numbers for the Drier. The e-mail advised that they would need 24 to 48 hours to process the claim. 9/30/2022 72 hours after I submitted the pictures, I called to find out next steps. The rep advised me that I would receive a response within the next 24 hours. I advised that it had already been 72 when SHW said 24 to 48 hours. I escalated to customer loyalty and then a manager because I wanted the policy cancelled and a refund issued. The manager Danny asked me to give him a couple of hours to resolve. I gave Select until that afternoon.
9/30/2022 I contacted Select as the deadline had passed, I was again advised that they would need more time and reps attempted to give me another “free” consultation if I were to wait. After a half hour of being transferred, and patronized I was able to finally cancel and get a refund processed. I was advised that my policy was discontinued and that they would issue a refund by check in 4 to 6 weeks. I will update this review once I get that refund check.

I signed-up for a warranty service June 20, 2022. On the very first claim I made I was told there was nobody to provide a service in my area. I had repeatedly asked the agent who sold me the policy if they covered my area. He assured me they did. He also told me I had coverage that I found out later that I didn't have in the policy.
After calling three times to get them to do their job and never getting a reply, I called to cancel. What an experience that was. Three phone calls and outright refusal to acknowledge I was telling them to cancel my policy. I was put on hold so long I had to call back twice. During my 3 calls with the company I asked to cancel my account 26 times before I eventually asked Charlie, the customer service rep, "Are you refusing to allow me to cancel my policy?" he finally made moves to cancel my account and refund what was left of my 3 year prepayment. I specifically asked if they could refund the money to the card I bought it on. I asked if it was a recorded line which was confirmed and I repeatedly said I wanted the money returned to my card, to which Charlie agreed.
I got an email today telling me they are issuing me a check and it will take 13-30 days. Are you having a laugh? One last thing, they also recorded a call without my authorization. When I asked a customer service representative who had called me if the call was recorded, they told me it was. I had never been given any indication that it was a recorded call. As they recorded me without my consent, I requested a copy of that call and all other calls I had with the company. They refused to provide them. Across the board this company is a bunch of crooks. Steer clear of them at all costs to prevent headaches.

If you own a rather new home and/or one with some new items realize that ANYTHING with an existing manufacturers warranty will be excluded from coverage. Your manufacturer might provide a part to you from another source but not the labor. These folks will pay NOTHING; no parts no labor. You are much better to own an old home with no warranties in play which would be more risk to them but they sell policies based on coverage type not age of home. Also realize that if they offer you a 75.00 visit fee that in today's world they will probably not find a provider who will come for 75.00 and a day or two after making your claim they will send you an email asking you to find a provider.

I had a plumbing block and I was unable to use my washer, shower/bath, or toilet. When a claim is filed you are informed by Select Home Warranty that you will be contacted when a company that provides the services you need is assigned. However, I repeatedly kept getting the same email indicating due to the fact service technicians were backed up. After many phone calls, I'm convinced there are no service technicians. It further explained that I could find my own service provider, get an estimate, get per-approval from the provider I used, and then I must pay for the services in total, submit a claim for reimbursement, and when all approved they'll reimburse me for my costs within 30-days. So if the cost is (example) $1,298.00. I would have that amount out of my bank for up to 30 days.
I'm convinced there are no service technicians because they prefer to have the customer do all the work. I a senior on low income and simple could not afford that. When I threatened to cancel my contract, several delay techniques were used. I was promised to be put on the top of the list and a provider would be assigned within 24-hours. Never happened. Called. They would put me priority again. Called. Same response. After 5 days I did cancel my request and am going to find a legitimate home warranty service.

The claims department had located and dispatched an Inspector on Thursdays, Sept. 8, 2022. He was set arrive in the late afternoon. Our pipe was leaking when we used the shower and the directly below the ceiling had fallen in due to the leaking pipe. We stopped using both showers because both showers share a common drain pipe and water supply lines. I was able to schedule a licensed plumber to come out and fix the broken pipe on Thursday, Sept. 8 2022 mid morning. Also, I had previously submitted photos of the water leaking from the pipe to the claims department when I filed the claim.. The ceiling had collapsed {perfect opening}.
They had the leaking pipe repaired before the Inspector arrived and the claims department has denied my claim due to policy language. Remember that it took them {four/4 days to get an Inspector to show up at my property). In my opinion their claims handling process is deliberately slow which in turn makes them guilty of Bad Faith Claims Handling Practices. I DON'T RECOMMEND DOING BUSINESS WITH SELECT HOME WARRANTY.

Sept 9, 2022. When I signed with Select Home Warranty several months ago, the guy assured me that the policy covered maintenance. About six months or so later, I called them to have someone do maintenance on my AC. The answer they gave was that they do not cover that, so naturally I decided to close and cancel my policy the next day. The nightmare began when I called to cancel, they kept putting me on hold, transferring me, and leaving me on hold for a significant amount of time that seemed forever never to return. I had to call more than five times because the holding time was so long and I work from home.
When I did call back the cycle repeated itself where I was once again put on hold and bounced around from one agent to the next to ultimately be put on endless hold again. They even pleaded with me not to cancel, but I told them I had no use for their policy. For the final last time I called, and I was put on endless hold again. I finally gave up and hung up again. I felt so beaten up and unheard. I did have another home warranty policy over three years ago but it was not like this. I didn't go back to them cause they charged me an extra month for terminating my policy and I never used it with them either. However, Select Home Warranty was the worst customer experience I have ever encountered in my life. I never even used their services and I picked the right prompts for cancellation on the phone and still got nowhere.
I will never ever get a home warranty through them again. I am just glad that I know how they deal now. They are scammers and awful to their customers. I was civil and assertive and they still played games. It was so horrible and I felt so abused. I was severely stressed out in disbelief. I checked my emails and they still did not cancel my coverage. What I had to ultimately do and I told them this, that I would have to put a stop on their future payments. What that means is that I had to get a new debit card. Such a shame. What is this world coming to. I looking to get my money back now. Good luck if you pick this company. I hope they treat you better because they treated me awful. The date of this incident was Sept 8, 2022.

Limitations were undisclosed at time of purchase. I asked to see terms and conditions of contract, but the salesperson was unable to provide them or point me to them. After signing up, the terms were finally provided to me, and they are ridiculous. $500 limit for appliances. After $65 deductible, that's only $435. Moreover, "Select will not be responsible for matching a system or appliance's color, brand, or dimensions and only is responsible for repairing and/or replacing systems or appliances of similar builder’s grade company."
I highly doubt Select could buy a replacement stove (for example) for $500, but it could elect to buy one in a different size? Is this a joke? I am looking at their website now, "shield your wallet for unexpected costs of repairing or replacing a home appliance ... water heater avg replacement cost $1500." That is highly misleading. Select would only pay $500 less $65 deductible to 'replace' water heater. Customer would thus be out of pocket $1035 -- not even including cost of the insurance, and this assumes Select has stepped up and approved a replacement. Not much of "avoiding unexpected repair costs" or "shield[ing] your wallet."

Our water heater broke because so its leaking and they don't cover it because it was leaking?? When something wrong with our in-ground pool they also didn't cover it. When we filed about a plumbing issue they can't get any plumber to come over so we have to find our own plumber and until now almost two years they don't reimbursed us, you have to call them every day to get reimburse but until now no luck. A little of advice - don't buy this home warranty, they are the worst. Don't be a victim like us!!!

I am a Realtor and decided to go with Select Home Warranty based on reviews and coverage. I signed up March 2022. I canceled my contract on August 2022. First call was due to a water leak from somewhere in guest bath. They told me before they could come out I need to have someone on my own to come determine where the water coming from. WHAT? I didn't even use the home warranty after that. The 2nd incident, dryer stopped working. The first tech they assigned after I followed their instructions per their text never contacted me. I contacted them 4 days later for them to tell me they didn't do work for Select. I was assigned another tech.
I paid my $65 deductible. She came did some work and still needed to replace the control board. At this point, Select sent me an email telling me the Tech could not get the part (which was a lie, tech could pick it up anytime) and that my dryer was unfixable because of age was going to settle for $125. When I called to just cancel, they said, "Well if I offer you $200, will you stay?" I did not. If they lie for something this simple, they will lie every time. When you call in, you have to verify your policy number, home address including city, state and zip. Your email address. Your phone number. Then they go into a script to try to get you to upgrade. No matter what time you call, your wait time is over 10 minutes, they put you on hold for long periods of time.

Have had them for just shy of 3 months and we had to make a claim as we started having electrical issues where our main breaker would shut off. Called a few times and was told we would get a call back to schedule a service call for inspection with their contractor. Heard nothing! called again and was told their technicians can't get out to our residents for about 30 days. And since it had not been 90 days since our plan started we would only get $150 in repairs for a $1500 fix. WHATTT!? I paid more than that in premiums!
I asked to see this policy I had signed (I had signed nothing) and asked for the recording of the rep I signed up with informing me of this provision along with the $75 cancelation fee (which was never explained either) Conveniently, It could not be found and again I did not sign that policy. I paid for than $150 in my premiums and your going to give me less than that for a repair! So, what's the point of having this coverage.
I wish I would of looked at the BBB site before I started with them. I see there only a 1 star out of 5 and currently have over 1500 complaints of the same thing. To me this a dishonest company with dishonest practices. A scam company. I would like my premiums back I have paid for as well as the $75 back. I will be reporting this to consumer affairs and the Federal Trade Commission as well. I don't want others to go through this! I've been on hold with them for over an hour and wrote this while on hold.

I switched to this company after 15 years with a different home warranty company. I switched because the fees and annual charges were increasing with the other company. I submitted a pool claim in May 2022 and in June I was advised to call my own repair company as theirs could not see me until August. They then said that whoever I called would have to get approval from them while on site prior to making a repair. I called a few local companies and they said "no way". They specifically said that do not do business with warranty companies because the approval and payment of claims is hard and slow.
I then waited until August to resubmit my pool claim and also submitted a claim to have my doorbell wire replaced. I was told that my electrical coverage (which includes wiring) does not cover outside wiring. There is no exclusion in my policy for any wiring and inside v. outside is not even mentioned. But the real issue is that the wire from my electric panel to my doorbell is completely INSIDE. This is a wire inside my house, under the same roof as all my other electrical wires. In addition, no one ever calls you back and you stay on hold for hours (yes, I am not kidding). When I asked to speak to claims they said that department does not speak directly to customers. WHAT??? I then asked for a supervisor and they said they would have one call me. It is now 4 days later and no call.

Many of the reviews on here are about the signing up process or to be honest sound very suspiciously similar. Maybe I'm just jinxed - I had a refrigerator go out out 2 weeks ago and finally I had to hire someone to look at it. Then Select tells me it's not covered because it's a sealed system, but they will give me a generous courtesy reimbursement check for $198. Now this is a side by side home refrigerator - where do you buy one legally for that amount?!? Would I suggest them - NO. Once this claim is done I will cancel my policy and run for the hills.

The fine print on my contract reduced coverage on the AC system to negligible coverage which is insane. That's not why I'm giving 1 star though because technically that's on me for not understanding the fine print. The reason this company gets one star is their communication issues. I called to cancel my service in May, had to speak with 2-3 people through escalation processes in order to make this happen. I requested an email confirmation of the cancelation but was told they didn't do that. I was also told the reimbursement check would take 3-4 weeks. Well, 3-4 weeks later no check arrived so I gave them a call.
This time I was told that no, they had never canceled the account. Did I want to cancel now? Which of course made me furious since they were holding onto ~$1,400 (3-year plan) of my money. I again had to escalate to a manager so they would properly document the cancelation request and BACK DATE the cancelation to my original request date which they had notes about in their system. I was told that they would back date and send the check in another 3-4 weeks. During this period of 3-4 weeks, I had several different employees call me to find out what was wrong with their service and if they could convince me to stay by offering minuscule discounts on service. Each person that called needed to "start at the beginning" to understand what had happened.
Eventually (second week of August...yes almost 3 months later) I received a check in the mail that WAS NOT backdated to the original cancelation request date but was one month less. So because of this company's incompetence, I was charged for an extra month of service, which on its own was terrible. Because of the aggravation of working with this company I'm not even calling in to get the extra month back because therapy would cost me more!
This company clearly has a breakdown in their ability to communicate. The fact that they don't have a website (like their competitors do) where you can log in, see your claims history, contact them easily, etc... is also a huge red flag. I highly recommend that you rethink your decision to go with Select Home Warranty and pick a more reliable company like I have.

My claim was filed August 1st and a Select Home Warranty approved contractor made evaluations and sent details of the required repairs on August 3rd. After daily calls and several emails to Select Home Warranty, I still have no resolution. I spent 1 hour and 37 minutes on the phone today (August 16th) and was told to look for an email in the next 24-48 hours. I have been told this same thing every day since August 4th. Today is August 16th and I am no closer to resolution. Select Home Warranty will do everything they possibly can to not pay your claim. This is only one example of the horrible service this company has provided me over the last few years on two policies I have with them.

He said that it covers everything for 3 years and maintenance records are NOT needed for the service. In addition, after initial 1 mo wait period, the policy covers for additional 6 mo free. Thus my policy is valid until Feb 20, 2024.

A heavy accented and difficult to understand outsourced Rep Francis (?) in Philippines said, she could not find that claim and asked me to file a new claim.

I am a 68 year old handicapped man. Several weeks ago my air conditioner died during a heat wave. Select Home sent out a tech the next day. He was outstanding and said as soon as Select Home approved my service he has a new OEM, the same one I had to replace my 25 year old motor. Select home took a week to authorize even though they advertise 1-2 days. I called numerous time and spoke to supervisors who said they were unable to help me. Each one also said they were unable to transfer my call, give me a number or allow me to talk to someone in the US.
After taking a week to authorize my part, they insisted on sending it to me through a Amazon, which took another week. I called at least 5 times pleasing the news to expedite my service. Each time I was read the same script telling me I had to wait. When the motor finally arrived, it was not an OEM part like mind that could have just been plugged in. They sent a universal motor, that I was told wasn’t as good, and needed to be programmed. My local tech called Select Home Warranty to let them know it would take longer to configure and set up my unit. Select Home's response was he should bill me. This is not the service I bought, but as of yet I have not been able to talk to anyone in the US or in management. They are completely insulated. This service was criminally negligent as far as I am concerned.

Select Home will do everything possible to not cover any home warranty claim. I created a repair request for a 4 plumbing issues. 1. A clogged shower drain. 2 & 3. Two shower tubs with low water with leaky components. 4. Leaky valve. There is a $60 deductible fee for each issue, which I was ok with, as this is outlined in the contract as total out of pocket cost for each claim. HERE IS WHERE THE COMPANY BECOMES A SCAM AND I REALIZED THE CONTRACT IS TOTAL FRAUD.
The plumber tells me, after he evaluates the work, that these $60 fees are only for the plumber to analyze the problem and not do any work. So I was charged $240 for the plumber to take some pictures and talk to me for 10 minutes. He said he has to submit each issue to Home Select to see if the issues are covered. I get a call the next day from the plumber.
1. To clear the clogged drain will cost me an additional $30 because my $60 deductible doesn't cover all the charges that he will bill Home Select. 2 & 3. Home Select will cover the repair of only one shower because there is a maximum amount per year they will pay which is a very low number. So it will cost me an additional $300 to get the second tub repaired. 4. The leaky valve is not covered as outlined in section 9.1.2 of the contract. There are so many exclusions in section 9.1.2 in the contract that hardly any plumbing or electrical issues will be covered.
So I had to pay $60 to find out a leaky value isn't covered. How is a leaking valve not covered in a plumbing contract? My new out of pocket for the repair will be$240 + $30 + $300 + whatever cost to get the valve repaired by another company. None of the exclusions in the contract are covered during the sales process. The sales reps tell you everything is covered and don't go into any of the limitations. I was with another home warranty company for 15 years before switching to Home Select. I left the other only because the annual fee kept increasing every year and became too expensive. I regret making the switch.

My AC unit went out on June 24th 2022. I have Select Home Warranty. I called them and they sent a tech out. The tech said the unit went out because of age. There were no other reason, it happens. Saturday I called Select and asked them how long it would be until they would replace it; it's 110 here in Texas during the summer, I have a family with small children, we have to have AC. Select said they wouldn't know for 48 hours because the approval team doesn't work on the weekends. I told them I can't wait and if I took out a loan and paid for it myself would they reimburse me when they approve it, they said yes. I paid to have it fixed.
They first denied the claim saying it was due to an electrical problem and they don't cover that; although the policy says it covers ac and electrical, etc. BUT it wasn't due to electrical. I had the company who repaired the unit call them back (I was on 3 way), they stated no one ever said it was electrical and that it failed due to normal wear and tear. They accepted that and resubmitted it. Once again denied (this happened twice).
They requested service invoices to make sure I've been maintaining my AC. I submitted them. They denied my claim saying I need 3 years of service proof. I explained I bought this house 2 years ago so all I have is the inspection report showing it was good and 2 years service to clean and maintain the unit. They then said all they can pay me back is 150 dollars because I failed to provide 3 years worth, but that's impossible because I wasn't here for 3 years. I think the public needs to know if you buy a house and choose the first year (which comes with buying a used home) that Select will not cover hardly anything because you won't be able to provide 3 years worth of records.

So you purchased the warranty policy from Select Home Warranty for a considerable amount upfront and you're all happy what a wonderful customer experience, everyone's so nice and helpful taking your money, 5 stars and a medal! Peace of mind, something breaks, it will be covered. How is it possible that the warranty policy purchased for exactly such unforeseen high-cost home system failures as the AC breaking in the middle of summer, would be swept under “electric failure” category that is conveniently part of the fine print of Select Home Warranty’s policy paragraph 9.1.2 and any home system’s (99% run on electricity) failure can be ruled as electric failure?
The answer: spend multiple hours on hold and calls, collect all the maintenance records for min 3 years, provide other documentation, get warned that you can't proceed with repairs until the review is done, but then get the "your claim is declined" because it's electric failure. The AC unit relies on electricity, it's broken, hence it's electric failure. You'll try to appeal or get more answers, wait on hold, and get the response that it's Electric Failure, it's not covered. You have to pay $4000 in repairs out of pocket, waste your time dealing with wonderful customer service asking for more information. Your phone calls and emails will get unanswered.

I now have wet clothes in my locked washing machine for 7 days and all they said is, "We will assign a different company and it could take 48 hours and then they have 24 hours to acknowledge receipt." So it could be 10 days before someone even looks at the washing machine, this does not mean it will be repaired if it needs a part that they do not have.
This is my second experience with Select Home Warranty that has taken a very long time. Last year I called them about my mini split air conditioner I have in my kitchen.

Reviewed several Warranty Companies and Select Home Warranty, Platinum Care offerings for seniors best fits my needs. That includes the insurance cost, appliances covered, availability and response time which I consider highly important especially for a senior home owner. It takes the worry and hassle out of maintaining ones home and peace of mind..

After being with CHW over a year now, this is a new plan but the offer seemed like an offer that was better than the current company was offering. I was offered a yearly plan that would lower the actual monthly and save us some money!

Provided me with details on every question I had for them. Very thorough and honest with all responses. Great experience. I used American Home Shield and Choice Warranty for over 25 years and finally found a company that will deliver what they advertised. AHS and CWS denied more claims than they approved and there was nothing the consumer could do about their negligence.

So, the house we bought came with this warranty. I called the other day, spoke with a rep who stated she'd send me the info. and after several days of getting nothing, we called in again. This time, the guy sent me the warranty info. very quickly. Kudos to the 2nd client rep., bah-humbug to the first client rep. I spoke with!

Had to use a second repair company. Agent made sure it was part of the original claim so I would not be charged twice. Very professional. This is the second time I've used my warranty and both times I received excellent service.

Very patience in explanation of the protection service available for the house, as well as other plans available for us to choose to save money. He did not rush us to make a decision pertaining to the contract and protection services for appliances, a/c, plumbing, electrical, roof, heating and etc.

Overall, I was impressed with the details of this Select Home Warranty. The sales person explained everything well with good descriptions and went over all questions I had. I felt that the pricing was good as was the coverages. One of my main concerns was service- both the procedure for making a service request and the expediency with which the service contractor did the required work.

I decided to go with Select because they say in my area there is immediate service and the ability to use my own contractors. They also offer refrigerator, microwave, laundry along with major systems like AC, electrical, etc. I'm hopeful that choosing this company will be better than the last company.

Got a quote online and the rep I got was very informative and accurate. He actually saved me money because I selected Septic, but didn't need it. Awesome experience! I currently pay 69 dollars per month, but with Select, they reduced my amount by a lot.

Please read contract as the salesmen over promise and lie about coverage even though they are on a recorded line. However, they were kind and patient and enjoyable to talk with. Will update with service experience at a later time.
