    Greg ** called immediately after I submitted a quote request. He was polite, informative and worked to give us a good price for services covered. He was not overbearing or pushy. He took time to talk slow enough for me to understand all he was telling me and answered questions I had. I believe we have a very good policy, low premium and low service call fee.

They have many great package options available to fit many and any needs you may have, and even better competitive prices, to fit all budgets! Insurance is a must if you don't have, or want to spend thousands of dollars on a unexpected breakdown or malfunction. I would definitely recommend giving them the time to answer any questions you may have or checking out the website!

    I just purchased the Select Home Warranty. I talked to Bruce and he was a pleasure to talk to and answered all my questions and I felt confident to make this purchase.The 3 year offer made a lot of sense with the saving involved and the additional 6 months free coverage. I feel secure knowing that with this plan all items are covered and help is just a phone call away.

    I was in the process of comparing home warranty companies. I barely entered my information and received a call from Chase **. The prices are unbeatable for the same services. The customer service of my last vendor, Fidelity National, was poor. I received the warranty as a gift from my realtor when I purchased my first home.

    The customer service was great. I would have given 5 stars, but it seems my claim was forgotten for a while so I had to call back and request a status update. The customer service agent escalated my claim and that resolved the issue. I'm overall very happy that I purchased my home warranty.

Currently, but ending soon I do have a home warranty which I have been wanting to replace. Due to their customer service. I received information from another company wanting me to go with them, however Mr. ** had them both beat. You are very lucky to have this kind of person working for you.

It is less expensive than my previous home warranty and the coverage appears to be about the same. I am hoping for better service providers than my last home warranty company.

He was very knowledgeable about everything he presented to us as well. We had been looking into a home warranty but he made the experience easy and smooth. We look forward to not having any issues but if the unexpected happens then we are happy to be covered!

    You did a great job in procuring a contractor. Unfortunately it was 4th of July weekend and I don't think he was working or at least pool repair wasn't a priority. He couldn't come for 3 days and we wanted to use the pool so I got some extra time and just fixed it myself. I've used SHW before and had good results so I have to assume that it was bad timing or pools are low priority.

The sales and account representatives were fair, honest, and patient with me as I was looking into the benefits and services their company offered. The benefits offered seemed to have good value in protecting my property and/or preparing for when things go wrong. I am happy I made the decision to work with this company.

Unit started running and issue reappeared in 10 days.

I'm still without AC in 114 degree in Phoenix after spending around $1000.

Select did cover the parts only after I called and indicated we went outside of the selected vendor and got a much lower cost for the needed repairs.

He diagnosed the problem as my coils had a leak and I was low Freon because of it. As far as the register not blowing air, the duct going to that register had come loose. The technician said he had to send it in to Select to get approval to fix. By Monday morning I had heard nothing from anyone so I called at 830am on Monday. Select said that they had not received the diagnosis from the technician they had sent out. They called the company and they said they were sending over now.

    By lunchtime still no diagnosis from the company Select had sent. Select calls the company again for a diagnosis. I finally get an email hrs later that said my repair was not covered. Not covered? So Select won’t even cover something as simple as coils and the duct being reconnected. Not many more part to home A/C beside motor, compressor, coils Freon and thermostat. Needless to say, the process took 4 days just for them to say, "Sorry, that’s not covered". Good thing I didn’t have a plumbing leak. My house would have been flooded.

    The call center is so frustrating! First put on hold for 18 minutes, then hung up on! Talked to another person and it took 33 minutes to solve a very simple request. It's like pulling teeth to get a claim filed. They always have a reason to NOT cover things that are under warranty. Too much "fine print". Dishwasher door was broken and laying on the floor. "We do not cover the dishwasher door, knobs, handle, buttons or gasket." Really? Ceiling fan quit working. Their answer was "It's over 5 years old, so we'll send you a check for $45 after you buy a new one. We don't fix old ones. The call center is horrible! I would not EVER buy a home warranty with Select Home Warranty again! Not EVER!

At the beginning, I am thinking just check the rate. However, after detail reviewed with all the policy and through agent's explanation. I made the decision right away to get discount. The plan is better than my current policy and cheaper. I think I am going to enjoy the home warranty from now on without too much worrying in the coming 3 years.

    Need to read the policy coverage well to understand what is covered vs not covered. For the covered items, my overall experience is good including the receipt of the reimbursement check. For the non-covered items, it is disappointing to find out later it is not covered as I missed the general statements at the end of the document. The wait was very long for the authorization while the technician was on site, and no one answered the phone. I don't understand why this step is required if it is not handled timely as the technician is not going to wait.

The home was built in 2005, with new air conditioner systems. The systems are warranted for 10 years, although we were pleased to know from Select Home Warranty that no new units are required at this time, we realized that eventually we will require new air conditioning units. We will continue to have regular maintenance and hopefully not have to replace A/C units for another few years.
