Unfortunate experience with the company that was originally dispatched and came to diagnose and service my washing machine, but SHW has done everything they can to remedy the situation and send out a different company. They even waived the service fee since I already paid the previous technician who’s now gone missing in action. Select Home Warranty has great customer service! This is an important quality to me!

The service representative I spoke to was excellent, he was very knowledgeable about the service and offered me a lot of options to choose from. Unfortunately at this time I could not take advantage of them, maybe in the future. Switched over from a more expensive plan with a different home warranty company.

My claim was denied in error, representatives do not know effective date of my policy and after speaking to a supervisor the resolution response time on a defective appliance still will not get fixed in a reasonable timeframe. Sub standard service from SHW. I definitely not renew this policy or may very well cancel early with expectation of a refund.

I signed up for SHW and have received excellent customer service for everyone. They're all so nice and very prompt in helping me obtain the services and answer all questions.

Strongly suggest this company for all home warranty needs.

The customer service personnel were nice and helpful. However, I have had 2 claims in since November, and they are just now being addressed for repair. I have stressed to them the urgency of repair... I have had to go to a laundry mat in a "seedy" section of town. The Technician was here-- very nice and professional gentleman, weeks ago, and he also had not heard of approval until now.... and the weather has been so nice here, that if my pool heater was working, I'd crank it up and be in it. NO KIDDING! I am happy to say FINALLY my dryer will be fixed soon and hopefully pool heater. I really hope that if I have another claim it doesn't take this long for repair!
