I have paid Select Home Warranty close to $1000 for 2 years to keep my "home warranty" active on my new home. I followed my contract's specific instructions to have my Air Conditioner serviced once a year and keep maintenance records. My AC recently stopped working and I called select, they sent out a technician whom I paid $60 for him to diagnose that my compressor was dead. The technician wrote up a diagnosis saying that my compressor was grounded. The next day I received an email from select home warranty denying my claim because they do not cover electrical issues. I then called the same company they sent out and asked them to explain what was wrong with my AC and whether or not it was an actual electrical issue. Per the companies' service manager and the written statement he provided me my compressor was dead and it was not caused by an electrical issue.
The people at select home warranty were provided this document and told me that they still would not fix my AC because I convinced the company to rewrite the diagnosis just to get my claim covered. I have since had 3 other AC companies confirm that the issue with my AC is not electrical and therefore covered under my Home Warranty, however my claim is still being denied. I have been without a working AC in Florida heat for 3 weeks thanks to this company. Their employee's customer service skills also leave much to be desired. They are rude and act like they know everything about how AC units and home appliances work. They also only have a claims and escalations department. That is it. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. THEY WILL COME UP WITH ANY EXCUSE NOT TO COVER YOUR CLAIM.

I have had SHW for over a year now and I have not been more dissatisfied with anything in my life. First, SHW does not respect the customers and they do not honor their own response time of 24-48 hours. Sometimes, I would not get a response or a technician assigned for weeks later regardless of the emergency. All you get is an apology with no real resolution. That's if they believe the customer at all. SHW needs to screen their technicians better. One technician fell asleep on the job, three technicians fail to show up, putting my life on hold to meet their four hours window wait time. SHW refuses to give me a refund due to their poor service and their inability to meet my needs or provide professional service. I have reported SHW to the BBB because of their poor service.
I have made a real mistake in believing that SHW was a good company. They have tons of negative customer reviews. But stupidly, I ignored the customer reviews and paid more attention to the certificate awards that are posted on their site. I feel like I am in a time-share, stuck to stay because I paid four-digit for three years of service or to just walk away and take the financial loss as a lesson learned. Please. Do better than me. Don't buy the hype. When you see SHW warranty, run. Run fast and don't look back. All that is mentioned in this post can be verified by emails, claims reports, and recorded phone conversations.

Excellent service. Our kitchen sink was clogged up and we had tried to resolved the problem with some drain to no avail.

Thanks Select Home Warranty.

This is the worst warranty company that I have dealt with. First they charge you upfront the full amount and then they tell you that they have to wait for 30 days before coverage begins! So they keep your money & you do not have coverage. No other warranty company I have dealt with does this. Every company I have dealt with will enroll you & give you a policy number, but you can only raise a claim after the activation date (30 days) & they charge you only on the date of activation! Secondly, after submitting a claim, it took more than 20 days to get me a vendor to conduct the service. Not to mention that I had to make multiple phone calls, wait while on hold for hours & not get any explanation for the inordinate delay.
Then the technician they sent did not do anything but looked at the appliance & didn't even give a diagnosis of the problem & charged me for the visit, in cash! Did not accept any other form of payment. I had to contact another service provider who came immediately & fixed the problem. Every time I reach out to SHW, they send me an email asking me to call them. They never ever ever reply to your email with anything relevant. They have an automated reply system. When you call & actually get to speak with someone, they promise you that you will get a reply, by email. However, no reply, no email, no communication whatsoever. When you follow up by email, you get the automated reply - call us! RIDICULOUS! I do not know how this company is in business. Their customer service is non-existent. It is shameful how they conduct themselves. Stay away from SHW. Please!

I have used a home warranty since purchasing my first home a decade ago. I have switched companies a few times over the years for poor quality, poor contractors, or poor service. Today I had a wonderful experience with Select. They offer great discounts, benefits for paying for the year upfront, and even better benefits for purchasing a multi-year plan. The comforting part was that it is prorated, so I can cancel at any time and get my money back, however, I don't see that happening. So far, I am very pleased! Did I mention they cover roof leaks! What a homeowner's dream!

I bought my house in August and my realtor negotiated a home warranty for me as part of my closing package. I was excited but didn’t know much about it. All I knew was that if anything broke, I was covered. About a month ago, my hot water heater starts going out. It’s making less and less hot water. I called a plumber that worked with the home warranty and they checked it out. They said they would submit a claim and left. Time goes by and I don’t hear anything. I call the plumber and they said it’s Select’s fault. Meanwhile, my water heater has gotten worse and only produces about a 3 min warm (not hot) shower.... not fun for washing my extra long hair!!
I finally decide to call select to get to the bottom of this. I don’t know my policy number or claim number so the agent looks it up for me. She said the policy was in my realtor's name!! I needed to get it transferred over to me. She said they have been emailing/calling but it was going to my realtor. I was in shock. How does this happen?! The agent said that they cannot process my claim until they get a picture of the water heater. This whole past month I was suffering with cold showers for basically no reason. After I got off the phone, I emailed the requested pictures to the claims department. I called my realtor and told her what happened and she immediately called select to transfer the policy. Now I’m waiting to see how long it will actually take to review my claim. I long for the day when I can take a hot shower!!

Thought I would give the home warranty industry another try with a recent house purchase, but the poor experience remains. It seems to be standard practice in the real estate industry to include home warranties in sales contracts, so I opted to try Select Home Warranty after a poor experience with American Home Shield in 2003. While the sales experience was tolerable, if not borderline pushy (emails were so frequent, I finally sent them all to my spam folder), the real measure of a home warranty is the follow-through when you make a claim. I had two claims, one was approved and one was denied. After the payment was received from the title company, a 30 day buffer period is mandatory by the company.
On my 1st claim, I realized that Select had not sent my policy number, so I had to call twice before finally getting it. Upon review of the policy, Select imposed a reduced coverage amount for claims in the 1st three months and the service call rate was $125, not the $60/$75 indicated on Consumer Affairs website. Takeaways - 1) The Consumer Affairs pricing data was stale/inaccurate. 2) Select is a sales organization (the emails come from salesforce.com). 3) The business model is for the subscriber to pay the service call fee which is essentially the labor portion of the service call and Select will only pay for parts. 4) The industry is built upon being an intermediary between you and a repair provider whereas consumers can easily find repairpersons via Google, Nextdoor, Facebook/Instagram, etc. Bottomline - ask for the cash upfront with your next house purchase for any needed repairs and avoid the home warranty industry.

I notice most of the people giving this company a glowing review have just signed up. Sure their sales reps are nice and professional to get you to purchase a warranty; promise you discounts and get you to pay for years in advance. Just don't try to use the warranty!! I purchased a warranty when googling the company I had used previously and this company came up; after reading the their coverage and speaking with their rep and getting this great deal I stupidly purchased a 3 year warranty and paid $1100 in advance.
The first time I go to use the warranty was because my washer was off balance and would not drain. It took nearly a week for the tech to come and do a reset. He told me to do a load of wash and let me know if the reset works. Nothing had changed and the tech said he would order a part and call me when it came in. It took five weeks for the part to be installed and the fix was only partial as my machine still kept refilling and refilling for over two hours. I called the tech back and he said it was probably a control panel and would call me when he received approval from Select Home Warranty.
This was a Friday so the following Monday I received an email from Select Home Warranty to tell me that they would be giving me $250 to either fix the machine or put it toward a new one. They said I had reached my cap and they based this on the depreciated value of my washer. I did not understand as every other warranty company I had used fixed the appliance or replaced it. I had a company actually replace my 10 year old stove when they could not fix it. I guess I thought all warranty companies were alike but I was wrong.
I decided to cancel this policy after doing research on the internet that I should have done before hiring this company; and could not believe all the negative reviews - thousands of them! When I called to cancel they tried to talk me out of it by offering me more worthless coverage. I don't know how many times I had to repeat myself to the rep who called me but finally I told them I wanted a refund. However I lost $300 due to a cancellation fee; they also deducted the $160 they paid to "not fix" my washer and there was a fee for each day that I was covered under the warranty. The only good thing I can say about Select Home Warranty is that I received a check for my refund within a week after canceling the policy. Please do not waste your money on this company.

Consumer Affairs - shame on you for promoting this company as one of the best. READ Instagram reviews about Select Home Warranty if you want the truth and avoid losing money. We bought an 18 month policy for TWO properties and paid the amount in full!!!! Joke is on us! I now realized after reading IG reviews that we’re screwed. How can Consumer Affairs be in bed with this crooked company. Perhaps Consumer Affairs CAN'T be trusted either and reviews are not objective. Horrible service. Two weeks now trying to get service and they have 10 million excuses similar to other reviews. They also don’t pay the claim timely or fairly or even at all.

I file one claim about 6 months ago 1st claim was took care ok but recently I have water leak under my kitchen cabinet so I open new claim. When I call customer service lady took the information down and told me, "Someone will contact you within 24 hours." When I didn't receive any call after 24 hours I call the customer service. They told me my claim is still under review & I have to wait 3 days. I explained the person I have water leak. I already wait 24 hours as first agent told me when I file claim. It's an emergency. In 3 days water will damage my cabinets and could damage my basement ceiling & probably my basement too but person act normally like he does not care and told me I have to wait 3 days no matter what. That's the rule.
After 3 days when I call back because as usual no call received they told me my claim was denied because faucet was not cover under my warranty. I explained the person I never reported that my faucet is leaking. She told me, "That's what the rep put in your claim. You have to open new claim and it will take 3 days review again and then we will let you know." It's so crazy. They don't care about the damages will happened due to water leak. I already wait 3 days. They want me to wait again because even it's their fault that their agent made a mistake and put as faucet leak. I never renew the policy again. I learn the lesson.

I would give less than 1 star to Select Home Warranty if I could, they lie and are a huge ripoff. We joined and paid for 3 years as they made it sound great. Then we had our first problem, our hot water heater failed and started to leak. The contract states that all aspects of the hot water heater are fully covered, all components, etc. We called and told Select Home that our unit was leaking.
4 days later they sent a repair guy who confirmed that the unit was old and failing and needed replacement. Select Home denied the claim and said they don't cover leaks. I complained and said the tank components were failing and that was the source of the leak, plus if you don't cover leaks why send a repair guy out and charge us $60 if we already told us it was leaking? They had no answer for that and said we are now denying the claim due to rust. The repairman never opened the unit, there was no rust so I asked how can you deny a claim on rust if no rust was found? They said any older hot water heater is bound to have rust so we automatically deny all hot water heater claims. I said I am immediately canceling my warranty, now I am waiting to see how much they will rip me off in cancellation fees. Stay away from Select Home Warranty, even the repairman told me they had a horrible reputation for denying all claims.

I bought a policy with Select Home Warranty in 2018 and had a really bad experience submitting claims. My first mistake was paying upfront for 5 years (got 1 year extra). My first experience was with a Kitchen faucet leak. I reported it to the Select Home Warranty, recorded a claim & they sent someone from a local plumbing company and he diagnosed the issue and never sent diagnostics back to Select Home Warranty. No one followed up. After a week, I was asked by Select Home Warranty company to get my own contractor to diagnose the issue. I got my own contractor look at the faucet and it needed a complete replacement of the pipes and faucet. Select Home Warranty said it is not covered in my policy. I ended up spending ~750$ including labor from my pocket.
My second experience was with the HVAC. Heating stopped working. Drain pump stopped working and no heat. My contractor fixed it & I spent 400$. Even for this Select Home Warranty said, it cannot be covered because issue was not fixed but an alternative was implemented to solve the problem (did not make any sense to me). They found a way to reject my 2nd claim as well. After a lot of fight, I was offered 200$ as a reimbursement but it has been about 7 days and I have not received the form. Now 2 years into this, I decided to pull the plug and cancel my policy. I was told that I have to pay 75$ as a fee and they would charge at non-discounted rate of 1.37$ for 750 days I had the policy for. It was very bad experience for me.

The good and the bad.
On the good side:
1) Very responsive during the sale of the policy - worked through details quickly and prompt responses;2) The call center agents when claims are submitted are well spoken and look up information quickly - technology is well set-up with emails for dispatch, follow-ups etc.
On the bad side - Call center agents are unable to do more than write up the claim and let you know where things stand in the process. They need to forward information to dispatch for assignment of work (takes 24 to 48 hours), then dispatch assigns to a contracted company which could give you an appointment 5+ days out. Once the technician comes and makes a determination - the process to get information for repairs or resolution takes another 48 hours.
Post that the claims resolution if replacement is needed can take 10+ days. These are significant time periods for a refrigerator that is not working and a huge problem. In my case, it has taken them over 15 days without a resolution for a broken refrigerator that needs to be replaced. When selecting a home warranty company, claim resolution time for critical appliances like the refrigerator are very important and SHW definitely failed in that respect.

My policy number is: **. The whole purpose to buy this home warranty is to have peace of mind which I never had. I submitted 3 claims (**, ** and **) which I never being reimbursed, and Select home warranty provide weird explanation so that they do not have to pay for the submitted claims.
1. Initially when I opened the service work order the customer service team member clearly stated that, "You can bring your own technician and fix the appliances and submit the claim for reimbursement," however after submitting the claim the they stated that you should authorize the repair first before initiating the repairs. Moreover, the technician they assign either does not want to work with Select Home Warranty or does not show up. When I complained to customer service, they mention that I can bring my own technician and get it repaired and submit claim for reimbursement.
2. My A/C condenser furnace went bad and need to be repaired to get the cold air. I called their customer service and they mentioned, "You can go ahead and fix it."
3. In another instance, my furnace went bad and won’t start due to bad inducer motor and thus no hot air and its freezing outside. In this instance, I contacted the Select Home Warranty for authorization first and they told me that they have submitted the report to authorization department and it took 2 days to come back, asking past maintenance records. Can you wait for 2 days without furnace in this freezing weather, where Select Home Warranty claims they fix the unit in less than 24 hrs. Anyway, I furnished whatever they asked and still they denied the repairs stating the furnace is RUSTED. The SElect Home Warranty customer service person talked to the onsite technician on phone in front of me and asked the condition of the furnace and filter status and technician mentioned that furnace is in good condition but the inducer motor (furnace component) has gone bad. As per their 6.3.3. for Heating system at https://selecthomewarranty.com/termsconditions/ clearly states that inducer motor is covered under this agreement.
Therefore, I need your assistance to step in to resolve my claims with this company. I have escalated these claims and still no response.

This is the worst home warranty company I have ever dealt with. First you're on hold to file a claim forever. They decline everything even when it's clearly listed in the contract as a covered item. They go back-and-forth hoping you give up. I made a client in Nov 2020 and they final paid $150 for a $600 salt cell for the pool March of 2021! I just filed a claim for our heater and they declined the service that is clearly covered in the contract! Don't use this company. Zero stars for me!

I have have filed at least 5 claims with this warranty over 11 months. Even though they told me these things were covered when I bought this policy, they always have an exclusion in fine print. They have not covered any issues at my house. Now my furnace is broke and they want manuals and maintenance records for the last 3 months. I just purchased this house 2 yrs ago. They said at time of purchase of of the warranty that the furnace was covered. They are very deceitful to get you to purchase their lies.
