Former owner of contract with Choice Home Warranty, not happy, and decided not to renew. My wife checked online gave me her opinion. After comparing different plans I received a follow up call from Ray **. Very knowledgeable, answered all my inquiries, was polite to myself, and my wife. Called back at the specified time my wife asked him to, and was patient with this grumpy old Veteran. Good man, sold me on your company. Also helped a little since you are affiliated with the NFL team that has broken my heart year after year since 1969.

Fred ** was fantastic and helped me! He reached out to ensure that I knew what was involved in my plan and made sure that I was selecting the best plan. He also gave me an amazing discount. I haven't needed to use the plan yet but I am sure I will be satisfied if I need to.

6 year contract. I chose this company because of their comprehensive coverage plan at a fair price. Jeff ** was very helpful and pro-actively assisted me with securing the right plan for my situation. He also answered my questions and clarified that I could use my existing service providers. This was very reassuring.

I am very disappointed with their response and services. Every time I call them to get help and service, they never repaired anything for me. I get the same answer from them which is " This issue is not covered by your policy".

Select Home Warranty has coverage options to cover most major household appliances and systems. Chase ** did a great job explaining all the policy options. Also he offered a price which is quite reasonable comparing with other home warranty services. They also offer customizable add-ons, including roof coverage, which seems to be a nice addition.

Updated on 07/24/2020: Brett ** responded to my request for assistance with my A/C. He communicated with me throughout the process. He was very pleasant and helpful! He actually serviced my A/C even though Select Home Warranty was not giving him the go ahead to do so. My Adopted Mom, who lives in the home, is on oxygen, and he absolutely did not want her to be without air conditioning! That meant so much to me! He didn't have to go above and beyond, but he did!
Original Review: Ray ** contacted me, but I missed him. When I called him back, I had already purchased the warranty online. Ray went in and looked at the coverage that I had purchased, offered me a way for me to get the same coverage, but to save some money and offered me a couple extra months complimentary and lowered the service fee for me.

I submitted a claim on my Electrolux Clothes Dryer ($1,000 product) to Select Home Warranty on February 5, 2020. The product was put into service early June 2018. The 3rd party contractor for the repair took 5 days to respond. They did come out and sent a claim to the company. After 3 weeks the contractor was unresponsive. They sent another service provider and he made another claim to the company. They replied stating that they would offer $200 for the repair and everything else was on us. We paid $450 per year for this coverage and Select Home Warranty failed us. We canceled our policy and were charged for the time the policy was in place, plus $75.00 cancellation fee. This company failed completely.

They promise they cover all appliances, and I paid extra for pool, AC, roof and sprinkler. 1st time I made a claim, on my dishwasher, I was told it was a preexisting condition, (when it wasn’t) and the next claim was on my microwave. They told me it was unrepairable and they would give me $95. To match the built in microwave new was $550. So I had it fixed. I paid $270 to have it repaired plus a $45 service fee. I was reimbursed $95. This company is a sham...they scammed me into paying for a year upfront with offering me two extra free months. When I tried to cancel my policy and give me my money back they wouldn’t.
Reviewed March 19, 2020
This is the worst company. They lie to you about what they cover. When you call you get a representative that barely speaks English. I canceled on 2/18/20 and was told I would receive a confirmation email the next day. Never received an email, so I called on 3/9/20 to find out what happened. They said it wasn't processed from my previous call but it would be canceled then. They said it normally takes 30 days to receive a refund check but they would expedite it since they didn't cancel it on 2/18/20. Called 3/19/20 because I still have not received my check and they now say it will be 30 days from today. They lie right to customers and do not do what they say.

HORRIBLE! I am VERY upset about this policy! I have just spent lots of time arguing on the phone with one of your agents about this payout of $98. The CHEAPEST built in above stove microwave that is the same size even on sale online is nowhere close to this settlement amount. The current microwave was purchased 19 years ago for $400! The agent said that what my policy covers is a depreciated value of my current unit, that is all? When I spoke, with salesman upon sign up of this policy, I was under the assumption that this company would replace a failed unit with same quality/features/size (color and brand not guaranteed). This is in my notes from our conversation. Now I am told that if it is cheaper for your company to offer me a settlement equal to a depreciated value of appliance that this is what is done.
Why am I paying such a high monthly amount and also needing to pay for a deductible if when a $500 appliance goes out you are only responsible for less than $100, I am responsible for the other $400 as well as installation. I also made a claim for my dishwasher last week and have not heard from your company about it! Is this another $500-$600 item that I will receive a $100 settlement on?

Isaac M was most informative and helpful. He answered questions and seemed interested in saving me money and provided various options for me to consider.

Pool claim. Claim line wasn’t much help. But I was told that no matter what kind of claim it is it takes 24-48 hours to just get an email response. Even if it’s for something like AC in Florida during the summer. I wasn’t exactly pleased with that information. It doesn’t seem they prioritize claims like that and in this weather for elderly people that could be a health and safety issue. I guess I will see once they finally respond to my claim.

I purchased a warranty today from Mark. Mark was wonderful at communicating all my options and finalizing the best deal to fit my needs. He went over the different options to lower the cost of the warranty, including the discounts for being over fifty, He also explained how the cost could be reduced by buying three or five years rather than one year. Select Home Warranty is certainly the best deal out there today. Thank You, Mark!

Choice Home warranty jacked up both my rates for no reason and I had a contract with them. So now it's your turn to see if your company will work out to my terms.

We called the customer service hotline at 8am to make a claim because our fridge suddenly stopped working. Within 15 minutes, they managed to find the appliance repair service company to assess the issue and I managed to book an appointment for the next day in the morning. The service man found that my compressor is not spoiled. Now is still pending the follow up review from Select Home Warranty. Overall, the lead time so far has been fast. Hope they will fix/replace my fridge soon.

I filed a claim on my a/c unit. The first person sent out did not return or return my calls. They sent a second person out for which I had to pay again and then, after they said I would be reimbursed for this second visit, had to fight to get them to live up to their word. They requested 3 years of prior service documents and refused to accept what I had provided. After numerous calls and lots of time, they agreed to give me $300. The new unit cost $3400. After I received the $300 check, I pondered the thought of continuing this policy for the remaining 2 years. I decided to cancel this policy. I received a call from the regional manager who indicated I would get back $678 and would receive the check in the mail. The check I received was for $238.02. I called this manager back and he stated they deducted the $300 they did pay on my claim. Still fighting to get the remaining monies back!

I called the claim in on Sunday, someone came out on Tuesday, they gave SHW the diagnosis on Tuesday. I called back on Wednesday, and SHW said they were waiting on approval to allow the contractor to do the repairs.

Well, today is Thursday, and they are still telling me it is a 24 to 48 hour turnaround and they are still waiting on approval from the approval dept. I thought if it needed repair, that was the approval. Also, if the appliances could not be repaired, I would have to buy my appliances and be reimbursed in 30 days. Also, it could not go over $500.00. Where can you buy a washer and dryer for $500.00 new. Guess I should have read the contract better.
