    I haven't had a service call yet, but I did call to discuss my account with a rep. I figured this would be a good test to see if they are responsive or not vs another company I have used in the past that all of their employees only use scripts to talk and cannot have a personable conversation with you. The two people I spoke with were helpful and resolved my issue quickly. I will update my feedback upon having a service call.

    Great Value, LOWEST DEDUCTIBLE!!! The salesman was very friendly and very professional. I am a new customer but I have had home warranties before, I did my research and found that it’s a highly reputable company, I hope I have as good as an experience if I need to make a claim!!! I am a new home and this is only the second year that I’ve been in my home and I will not go without a home warranty SELECT seems to be a great option for the value. The plant that I just purchased with select seems very comparable to the plan that I received along with my mortgage but for a discounted rate.

    From my first phone call thru the follow-up sales call, all my questions were answered professionally and both the customer service rep and the salesman, Fred, were both very helpful. I would recommend your service to anyone. They both made sure I was aware of the best possible options and prices for what I needed. After dealing with a competitor whose prices were not as competitive and whose customer service was sorely lacking, this was a refreshing change!

    Steven ** was very helpful, gave me various options to make up my mind. Explained the coverages of the house items covered, that I had 24/7 coverage, if something would breakdown they would send someone out to fix it at a copay cost of $45.00 service call, they would either fix it or replace it. I'm still very skeptical over this, He kept reassuring me, and I felt very comfortable with it. I still questioned the coverage of the repairs like to the Central Air and heating, He assured me that the copay was $45 and that they have certified technicians to fix the issues most of the time, If not they have to replace it. I explained that State Farm had the same type of coverage that my Daughter has, he reminded me to check in on my daughter coverage, to make sure it was right. He gave me his phone and extension to have my daughter and friends to call for a quote.

    I enrolled by phone and the Customer Representative was very clear and professional in explaining the coverage/options and so it lasted for a few minutes. He made it easy for us to make our decision. The payment options were interesting to us. The savings and other benefits by choosing the yearly and/or 2 payment option were convincingly laid out for us and so it was a no brainer we have chosen the yearly payment option. We have yet to experience their service but we’re confident we’ve chosen the right Home Appliance Warranty Company. Everything in our contract is spelled out in an email Select Home Warranty sent us. We can’t ask for more.❤️??

    I like the fast response from Select Home warranty with prompt email updates. However, three are two things I am not satisfied on this claim. 1) Ice maker is a very common problem of refrigerator, but it is not covered in the basic warranty, I had to add additional $39.99 to purchase its warranty. 2) The contractor, Lucas Appliance Repair asks us to wait until 28th to fix the ice maker, which is 10 days away. It seems too long for this kind repair.

    The customer service agent was great and took all my details in a timely manner. They were able to get my home warranty claim done via the phone while I was driving. I will need to provide them a serial number which I will have to call back to give to them when I get home. I'm hoping that I can get that back to them in a timely manner as well since I have no idea where to look for it at.

    Beware of signing up with Select Home Warranty!! After a year of having them as our warranty company, we filed our 1st claim when our dishwasher died. They sent out a repair company that cannot even be found on Google and the repairman was a full-time security guard for the ABC (liquor) Store and only did appliance repair in his spare time. We were only the 2nd dishwasher that he has serviced! Instead of researching the age of the dishwasher through the serial #, he asked my husband what year the house was built and assumed that since it was built in 2000, the dishwasher must be 19 years old. My dishwasher is only 6 years old!!

    The "repairman" also ran my garbage disposal without turning any water on to the point that you could smell the motor burning! Select Warranty closed out the claim with an offer of $185! In order for us to dispute the incompetence of the repair company they sent (definitely went with bottom of the basement pricing over experience) we have to pay out of pocket for another service repair company to verify the true date of manufacture for our dishwasher! Select Home Warranty is a scam!!

    I submitted a claim on 9-30-19, but had to call SHW twice for them to finally email me a Claim Resolution to replace my ceiling fan. They finally emailed me on 10-16-19! If I hadn't been persistent with my calling, my claim would stayed fallen in cracks of their system. What's worse is that when I finally received the replacement cost for my ceiling fan, they only allowed $45 to be reimbursed! Ceiling fans are well over $200 nowadays, plus SHW does not pay for installation, so I will have to pay for my own installation. This warranty is a joke and not worth it.

    I was paying $70 per month plus $100/visit thru Sears Home Warranty. The cost went up for both monthly cost and visit charge considerably since I first signed up. My cost with Select when I purchased a 5 year plan went to under $30 per month and only $45 per visit. I was very pleased with how Zachery assisted me in choosing this plan. In addition, I also had lawn sprinkler coverage added along with roof leak coverage which I did not have. This policy is a great bargain.

    So after numerous calls and finally having a supervisor call me they said they would send out a professional. The first company they wanted to send me could not be googled or found on the internet so I told them I would need to verify the company existed. They sent over someone I was able to google and they did a great job! So after many days and a lot of frustration my pipe is finally fixed. I am still nervous about any future issues though. I will keep you posted...

    Original Review: Oct. 16, 2019

    I WOULD NOT USE THIS COMPANY EVER AGAIN! It feels like a big SCAM!! I paid for a 6 year policy and filed my first claim for a leaky pipe 4 months later. They emailed me and said they would get back to me within 24 hours. They then sent me an email saying that I basically had to do their job because they didn't have a repair person in my area that was available! Here is verbatim what they emailed me: "We do apologize for this delay as our dispatch department is still working on your claim. Unfortunately our technicians are backed up at the moment. In an effort to expedite your claim you do have the option of Securing your own Service Provider to come and diagnose the issue. When using your own Service Provider to service a claim, following the instructions below will ensure your claim is reimbursed properly.

    1. All consumers are given a $100 pre- set Authorization limit. 2. Reimbursement is ONLY available for covered repairs. Please see the Terms and Conditions. 3. If the total repair is above the pre -set $100 Authorization limit, please call our Authorization department from 9 am est-7pm est at 1-855-267-3532 before you perform any repairs. Failure to obtain authorization for the repairs may delay the processing of your reimbursement 4. Please email the repair invoice to claims@selecthomewarranty.com and include your policy # and the Authorization # if applicable. 5. Once received, you will be sent a "Reimbursement Form" to sign and send back, please allow 30 days to receive your check."

    I called the customer service and told them I am not going to do their job of finding a contractor, paying them and then have to wait 30 days to get reimbursed. I spoke with Dionel on Tues. 10/8/19 at 6:08PM and told him I wanted to cancel my policy because I have never been asked by any previous home warranty company to do their job!! He said he would send me a list of repair people within 48 hours. HE DID NOT SEND ME ANYTHING! On 10/15/19 I called to cancel once again and it took me 28 minutes and several transfers to different people and as well as having to listen to how Dionel shouldn't have told me he would send me anything and Gabriel on 10/15/19 at 11:57 am said he would "coach" him not to tell customers that! Then Gabriel transferred me to Felix who was supposedly a manager but was not and he said I would be charged $75.00 to cancel the policy and my refund would be prorated.

    So basically they took my money and did not do anything but ask me to do their job and raise my blood pressure for a week by having to listen to all their reasons why they couldn't send a contractor. This is NOT the service I would pay for and would advise you to not even consider this company! If I could give them a big fat ZERO I would! I have contacted the Better Business Bureau and will possibly contact a lawyer. What a waste of my time and money!! Keep in mind I will get my PRORATED refund and a $75.00 cancellation fee in 30 DAYS for them not being able to provide service for me!! I am being charged for them not being able to provide a contractor to fix my leak! How is that legal or even ethical?? Right on the front page of the webpage it says “We assign a local professional” which is NOT TRUE!

    I have had 2 issues one for dishwasher and another water heater. For the dishwasher there was a delay of about a month to have it fixed after about 20 or more calls. For the water heater they arranged for a technician, who came over to file a false diagnostic report and disappeared. This technician was airing grievance that the warranty company has overdues for more than last 3 months with the contractors and hence they have to resort to these means.

    I bought a five year premium protection plan. Within a couple months, my refrigerator went out. They assigned a contractor to help me that wasn't listed anywhere under the company name they claimed, and the phone number did not work. Once I tracked this person down and figured out who he was, I found nothing but 1-star reviews, claiming he never finished work he started, prodded people to pay him extra under the table, etc. This is the kind of contractors they apparently have: shady cheats and thieves.

    My refrigerator needed to be replaced, once I found a reputable contractor. I bought a new one and sent them the invoice. They said they would reimburse me $350, and that they would send me a reimbursement for to sign within 24-48 hours. A week later, when I still had not received the form to sign, I canceled and demanded a refund. They reluctantly canceled my policy and said I would receive an email within 24 hours letting me know what my refund would be. It is now a week later, and I have not received the email (and no, it didn't go to my spam folder). This company is shady, to say the least. Save yourself a headache and stay far away!

    Ability to locate a contractor in less than a week. The representatives are top notch. I have a problem with SHW not having a contractor in my area. Twice I have needed service and both times I have been assigned a company that does not service my area and I have been asked to find my own or wait even longer. Last time it took 7 days. This time it seems that it will take just as long. I don't want to find my own, that is what I pay SHW for!!

    They have poor services, and coverage. Every time you make any claim, they will make you pay whoever is fixing the repair, and then they will take their sweet time to reimburse you. It takes not less 48hrs before the repair gets a fix. If you want it fixed as soon as possible, you have to look for a technician yourself. Their coverage do not cover the entire cost for the repair, they will still make you pay part of the repair cost from your pocket by referring you to the policy first. You better ask that policy before making any deal with them. Read it and understand it. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THEIR HOME WARRANTY TO ANYONE.

    Absolutely the worst home warranty service I've ever used!! I am so regretting switching from my previous company. DON'T DO IT!! STAY AWAY!! I switched to save a hundred dollars this year and now I see why it is cheaper. They don't do anything for you. You will do all the work and pay for it! I should have known. It started with signing up!

    It took nearly a month to actually get any info on my policy. I had to call to request my number since it wasn't immediately approved even though I signed up online. Then when making my first claim, I received several emails over a week's time saying they couldn't find a company to fix my A/C. Finally I called myself and found someone within 3 minutes. Then, I had to have the work approved on the spot before Select would agree to pay the A/C tech. Then, when the work was done, I had to PAY IN FULL (hope you don't have anything expensive repaired! ). Then, I had to scan and submit proof of payment and send it in for review. After not hearing back from Select, I had to inquire about the status, again waiting forever on the phone. Then after another couple of weeks, with no reimbursement check, I had to call to see if I was going to get one. They APPROVED A PARTIAL PAYMENT! What??

    Now I am waiting for an email that I will have to sign and return in order to approve Select to reimburse me! What again??? Who knows how long it will take for them to send me LESS THAN HALF of the repair cost. And they're going to keep my full year payment for the privilege of having this horrible policy. Don't do it!!!! If you do, you have been sternly but very fairly warned!!! I promise you will regret it!!!

This company is a waste of money and the contractors who work with this service do not have many positive things to say about them. I can tell you, I have not paid the monthly fee that they charge because they have not reassigned another contractor to my dryer issue and all I get is empty promises about what a valued customer I am.

You sent me to another unlicensed technician and they have not called me back for a week.

    I am using my own technician, and you are basing your evaluation of the refrigerator on a unlicensed technician incorrect assessment. You did not even have the correct unit to base the value of the repair. Your customer service person told me, "too bad, this is our decision". How do you value the cost to repair based on information that is incorrect?

It is also good to know that they cover most cities and states so you are able to move the plan with you if decide to move or sell it to the person that will be buying the house the plan is for.

    Although the initial request was easy and Aqua Fresh came the following day to resolve the issue after I called, once the plumber got here, it was quite difficult to get the approval to get the work done. Upon initial evaluation, the technician requested an additional $150 beyond the copay for work that had not been done. They were requesting $150 additional for parts and labor for the pipe under the sink, but the only work to be done was to snake the clog. In our contract it states work 100 feet from the source is covered and Select even read the contract over the phone, but they insisted it would be an additional $150 beyond 20 feet. Really disappointed in this experience as the work took at least twice as long to complete, we had to be on the phone with Select and the technician had to be on the phone twice with insurance for approval. We have not experienced this inconvenience with other companies and we will not be renewing our contract.

They told us to hire our own tech, which they said they would reimburse, but after said they would not. Third time was a washer. They couldn't provide their tech in timely fashion and was told to hire our own and they would reimburse above our portion. It turned out to be the mainboard and part no longer available.

    Make sure you read your policy coverage. We noticed that our fridge had stopped working in Sept, after having bought the house back in May. I discover that not only was that outlet dead, but all the outlets and switches on that same circuit were dead. We called Select to have them send out an electrician, since we got a warranty through them. After about a week, they said we needed to find our own electrician, since they couldn't find one in our area. First bad sign.

    We had an electrician come out, and they ended up scratching their heads as well. They decided they'll need to run a new circuit, since they couldn't find the problem with the existing one. We called Select to find out the next step, they said we should have called while the electrician was here, though they never told us that. Second bad sign.

    Our electrician estimates between $1000 and $1500 for the new circuit. Good thing we got the warranty... or so I thought. After the electrician called Select, we get an email stating that we're covered for our full cap... $150. That's right. We spent several hundred dollars for a warranty that covers far less than we spent to be covered in the first place. It turns out that the policy says our cap is $150 for the first 90 days. If we had waited a week to report this, we might have been covered for more. I have the fridge running on an extension cord, and hey, who needs working light fixtures in the living room (same circuit)??? Based on this, I honestly can't say that these guys are the worst (no other reference point), but they're not good, in my opinion.

    It all began in July for a claim to replace drain pipes and faucet that needed replacing on my kitchen sink. Not even 1 of the 3 plumbers they told me to call would come to my house to do the job, so, with the approval of Select Home Warranty, I contacted a company I had used before. BUYER BEWARE! I was told all I would be responsible for would be my deductible for the repairs.

    After finally getting a plumber, and 3 attempts at sending SHW the bill, (as they kept saying they needed a diagnosis that was acceptable by them), I was told to pay the bill, and send them a paid receipt and I would be reimbursed. The bill was $355.00, less my deductible would be $280.00. I was told they would only reimburse me $150.00, not $280.00 because that's the approved amount (no one said anything prior to repair that they would only approve a certain amount - nor was that mentioned as part of the contract). That is not what you are told when purchasing the warranty...it says you will only be responsible for the deductible! So, buyer beware! Trustworthy businesses are few and far between.

I would surely recommend Select Home Warranty and give them a thumbs up for excellent Customer Service.

    My Air conditioning unit was having issues, so I called to schedule a service tech to come out, and it turned out to be a leak in the unit. The service tech let me know that he’d have to submit his findings to warranty, and that they’d be contacting me with there findings. The following day, I believe, I received a call and we were discussing the issue of the unit, and it turned out that the unit had a Freon leak in it. I wasn’t able to use the warranty as Freon leak repairs are not covered under the policy. I ended up deciding to get the unit replaced, since there were no guarantees sealing it would work, and the unit was pretty old as it looked and was.

    Zach was very good at explaining your product. He took the time to answer all the questions I had. I didn't feel pushed. He did a excellent job. I felt comfortable doing business with him and felt he was truly concerned about my needs for the House and what my budget was. Being able to stay within my budget and get good service is key to me. Zach gave me the understanding I needed to make a wise choice. Thank you.

    On 9/29/2019 I reported that my refrigerator is not working. It was not cooling the food. I called and placed a claim with the company. The following next day at around 3:00 pm I called to obtain some sort of update as to when a technician will be coming out. They stated that they have nothing as of yet. I called 48 hours later and yet the very rude customer service staff stated that they still have no available technician in Chicago. Let's keep in mind that this is the 3rd largest city in the US and yet they do not have anyone. I have lost all my food as of yesterday evening and today 10/2/2019 they stated I will have to continue to wait as there is nothing they can do. The lack of concern to this issue is unbelievable.

    As a customer you expect certain issues to be taken with some high priority. If I was calling about my dryer I can understand the lack of urgency, but no refrigerator with 3 kids at home and the youngest being 2 months old is plain wrong. If my monthly bill was not paid on time (which gets pulled out of my account automatically) they would immediately take action and cancel my service. When a request for service takes place they are quick to tell you that its out of their control. The funny part now is that I receive an email from them stating that if I complaint to BBB it will delay my process. This company is not as they say it is.

    I called Select Home Warranty today, since I had not received an email confirming my new service I applied for online. The representative I spoke with resolved my issue quickly. He was able to provide the best possible value for the plan I was interested in. I signed up for the annual plan and the representative applied all the discounts I was entitled to. The representative made sure that I received all the information I needed regarding my plan.

    This company has held me hostage for 21 days without any help except apology after apology on why my claim is still under review. I have 2 service calls from 2 companies that do not fix refrigerators and I am being asked to bring in another service call by the way at 60.00 each to tell me the same thing the first 2 did which us the compressor is broken. AND THEN LET IT GO UNDER REVIEW AGAIN to tell me they are not going to fix the problem. Manager will not talk to you on the phone and still will not call you back. I am beyond frustrated that I called my own company to fix, but then why did I pay for a warranty company to help me when things go bad. It is a scam to get your money. Frustrate you till you give up and they just keep and collect your money.

    This company is a complete waste of money, they send unqualified idiots to service their claims, then refuse to pay their claims by tricking you into accepting a small reimbursement with a promise to do more later.

    Extremely poor service and followups. I had an AC issue during peak summer and the dispatch team could not get Tech to come onsite for almost a week. I finally gave up and got the AC repaired myself (paid $650 but yet to receive my claim, SHW are approving $250). Second occasion is regarding my claim open for Oven repair. The claim was submitted on Sept 5th 2019, the Oven is still not repaired. I have already paid $45 as diagnostics fee to the tech. It's now almost 1 month that the issue is still not fixed. Very poor service.

    Updated on 11/06/2019: I paid Select Home Warranty $440. Due to the fact that they screwed me on my claim, because they didn't cover labor, they only covered parts which I would have come out much better if I would have bought the parts myself, then they screwed me on my refund. I cancelled due to them screwing me. When I got my refund, it was even more short as my calculations were not adding up. Due to the fact that I cancelled because they screwed me, the $140 that they did pay to the plumber for the claim they screwed me, they deducted the $140 from my refund. UNBELIEVABLE!

    The ONLY reason they got a one star is because I couldn't get it any lower. I would HIGHLY suggest that NO ONE do business with these people. They take your money, screw you on your claim and then, when you figure out that you can't get your claim covered and actually try to go to a reputable company and get your refund, they screw you again!

    Original Review: I filed a claim for a leak under my sink. They sent a guy out, I paid my $60. Was told he was going to turn it in, which I was told was $355 with labor and they were waiting on approval. Two days later, I'm calling trying to find out what is going on. I get told that only $140 was approved because they do not pay for labor, only parts, which would have been a lot less that the $140 and $60 combined. Needless to say, I was eventually charged, on top of the $60, I had additional "labor" to pay for $175. Why do I have a warranty that is breaking me? I called their sales department acting like I was looking into buying a warranty, but ask if labor was covered under their plans and was told yes. That being said, they will tell you all kinds of lies to sell you something, but when you file a claim, you find out none of the labor is covered. You're screwed!

    Only call them once in the four months that I had the policy to look at my dishwasher. I made the claim on August 24, 2019 and today is Sept. 27, 2019 and no one has came out to look at it. Every tech that they assign to my claim tell me that they don't do business with them. I have spoken to several supervisors and the matter is still not resolved.

    I call today to cancel and they tell me I have two options. 1. Find a tech myself and they will reimbursement me. 2. Cancel the policy and pay a cancelation fee of 75.00 and prorate the other months. Now you would think that because I have been through so much with them that they would gladly cancel. The last supervisor named Jacob to me that they would not cancel my policy unless I pay those fees. Nonsense! If you are not upholding the contract on your end then the contract becomes null and void. Stop ripping people off because as homeowners we depend on warranty companies to protect us not take from us. Never mind that I paid them in full.

    Please don’t buy any policy from this company. They are not accredited by BBB and they have over 3000 complaints on the BBB site. THEY ARE A SCAM!! They will never cover anything and always find a loophole to make sure they don’t cover anything. They expected me to have records for 3 years on a home I purchased a year ago. New homeowners BEWARE, they expect extended maintenance records on all your appliances and even with some documentation, they reject your claim. Worst warranty company with the worst customer service. Please Stay Away from them, pay a little bit more but at least you have coverage you can use.
