I called and Zachery explained the service to me in full detail. The monthly payment is great and so is the coverage. I have referred my parents to Select and will refer more friends and family. Thank you so much. I cant rest easy knowing I wont have to worry about expensive repairs in my home. I am looking forward to a long time relations with your company. We lost everything to Hurricane Florence so, I dont want to lose anything else. Thank you again for the great service and courteous employee Zachary.

Jason ** was the gentleman that came to deal with the sink. He was very polite, friendly and competent. I am very pleased with SHW and the prompt attention I received. The last company I was with never addressed any of my 3 claims in less than 3 weeks. Being as I am a senior citizen this type of program is great for me and the pricing is definitely within a budgeting amount. Thank you again for your prompt and courteous service.

I purchase a contract from select home warranty. I began to have problems with my garage door when my sprinkler system watered the yard or it rain. They sent someone out who was not an electrician and he diagnosed the problem as needing to upgrade my electrical box in the garage ( house is 7 years old). Select home would not fix the problem because they said they don't do upgrades. I cancel my policy with them (after reading reviews) and hired an electrician who said my problem was with the electrical outlets in the yard. Water had gotten into one of them and caused my breakers to throw when I tried to let up the garage door.
Mad as hell Texas resident!!!

This is for the coverage we received from the contract we we purchase a house. When we look around to get quotes, the process has not been very straightforward for some providers. With Select Home Warranty, the process to get a quote is easy and straightforward. We only need to tell the agent what we need and we received a quote right away. Have not needed to file any claim yet, but we have been happy with the service we received over phone.

Select Home Warranty would not accept the technician's diagnosis of a compressor failure and denied my A/C claim. Complete and utter fraud - do not buy. The tech they hired said there was not any freon leaking from my system, yet they denied my claim because of a "freon leak or freon related issue." They took several days to reach this conclusion while my wife and two kids (both under the age of 5) sat in a sweltering house. Their customer service was atrocious as I had to contact them constantly to get updates and they never reached out to me once - even when they said they would contact me within a certain time frame. Also, the claims approval manager was extremely rude when I pointed out that the basis for their claim rejection contradicted the technician they hired. In addition, another company that I hired to replace the system verified that there was no freon leak in my old system.

Jeff ** was very quick and efficient at getting everything started up and taken care of for us today. He made sure to elaborate on everything that the warranty covers and made sure that we understood everything thoroughly. We are very happy with the level of service that we received today. We will definitely recommend home warranty to any of our family and friends. Have to wait 30 days for the policy to be active but that's understandable.

My husband and I were both very pleased with the sales representative that we spoke to. The company agent called us as we expected when we called to get information. He was very helpful and answered any questions we had without hesitation. He as very courteous and polite. When we told him we owned multiple homes He explained to us that there are multi-house discounts as well as as multi-year discounts. He explained in detail advantages of both these plans as we own several homes. All in all this was a painless and great experiences with the sales representative. We opted to purchase the premium package for two homes as that seemed to be the best over all deal for us once he explained the three packages they offered and at just $60 per trade call we felt that was our best fit from the three plans offered by Select Home Warranty. We also did our homework before we called and the ratings for this company are excellent.

The rep was very polite and informative. Of course, the true test will be the service provided if we have a claim. It's hard to come up with 75 more words when all I did was sign up for the service. It was weird to get a call, though, when I only did a review online and didn't submit an application. I was actually looking at another company name and was very suspicious of the call. I hope they are not a fraudulent company.

Within seconds of submitting my online quote request, Select Customer Rep Kevin ** called me and we worked out the services I needed and he gave me pricing. It was much cheaper, and included more services, than my old home warranty company (Sears). I haven't had to file a claim yet, but I am sure it will be easy and quick. I have read their reviews online and they are all excellent and they have received several rewards. What you are paying for with a warranty is peace of mind. I can say that I have that, and it is one less thing to worry about.

Excellent customer service and offered discounts for me to sign up. I'm currently with a competitor and have not been happy with my service and my payment has been twice what Select has offered. Jonathan helped navigate me to what I need and informed me that Select has been nominated awards which I feel is comforting to know I'm with a reliable organization. I'm pleased with my order and look forward to having Select Home Warranty cover my home needs.

I was impressed with the representation Sam. He was not pushy and explain everything in detail. He was patient in my time time to make my decision. Also, worked with my financial situation during to my husband's cancer battle. The contract was significantly detailed. It covered everything major and not major on our home. It left me with peace of mind to concentrate on my husband's recovery. I also have the peace of mind that I can have Sam to go to if I have any questions or issues. Instead of getting the runaround from 300 customer service people who are not equally trained.

My experience has been excellent so far. The salesperson explained everything clearly and gave the option to save a lot of money with a 3yr plan. Best option for us knowing we will be buying this coverage from now on. Affordable peace of mind when you think about it. I did a lot of research before choosing Select. Call around, read the reviews, these guys are The best. Here one down side. Nice guy on the phone, well spoken, friendly, professional, and courteous. Forgot about the reduced service fee to $35, I didn’t find that anywhere else. Nor did I find as good of a deal when you purchase extended service. Some of the other warranty companies prorate items instead of replacing item. Look closely and choose Select, I found a lot of hidden deal breakers with other companies.

Washing machine. The last representative I spoke to on the phone was very helpful and comforting. He apologized for the inconvenience of having my tech not call me and followed up with an email letting me know what would happen next. The previous representative named Charlie was useless though and I highly recommend some feedback to that rep. She did nothing to trouble my issue so I was very glad to speak with the person who did actually help me and who listened to my concern with empathy. Made a big difference!

Unfortunately for me I've been denied for repair/replacement of my furnace, as I do not have maintenance records for the previous 3 years. This is because I only have owned the house for 5 months (over which I have records to show the unit was properly maintained). Jamal, a manager at Select Home Warranty, told me his team would have been more than happy to exclude the verbiage in section 9.1.2, as I just bought the home; however because it is after the 30 day introduction period they are unable to change the verbiage.
So for your sake, please ensure that if you decide to move forward with Select Home Warranty (which I do not recommend), you have the verbiage in section 9.1.2 altered. Jamal said this should not be an issue for any of you new homeowners. If you would like to hear more details about the situation email me at **. Congrats on your new home!

If I didn’t understand something I would ask him to call my fiancé and explain things to him and he had no problem with it.

The SHW team is great. The customer service is outstanding. The only problem is there are a lack of contractors in the area that work with the warranty company. The process of submitting a claim is easy. I like that it is online. When a claim has to be submitted after the fact because there was not an available contractor, the payment is minimal compared to the bill. I have submitted claims for the refrigerator, the stove, an electric outlet not working, and garage door. Of these claims, only the garage door had an available service person in the area. The electric outlet was 'covered' by warranty but I supporting bill from the contractor was not acceptable so I did not receive reimbursement.

Received prompt and polite customer service regarding warranty claim. Questions were answered regarding warranty process and procedure. Process to file claim was quick and easy. Furnace repair was covered by Select in full, less the service fee. Did not need to pay upfront and wait for reimbursement. (That is a policy if you wish to choose your own repair service, however.) Furnace was repaired by a local professional in a minimal amount of time. No hassles. Good value for money.

There are lot of options to be considered. I got a platinum plan for 5 years and additional 1 year free. Price is awesome for 5 years if you pay the amount in a single pay.

I'm not sure how they have so many good reviews, or if I just had a bad experience. Salesperson was very good at "selling" but when it came time to use the service, I was treated less than! Couldn't get them to return promised calls - supervisor said they were doing me a favor by covering my built-in microwave because the "exhaust" wasn't covered, even though my request said it was making a noise which sounded like the motor was going out. She also said I could have her extension # but she's never available to answer the phone.
Wasn't allowed to talk to billing to find out what my refund would be if I cancelled. When I did call customer service to cancel, I IMMEDIATELY had a call from a supervisor, giving me his extension to call back, wanting to find out how they could keep my business. Sad that I couldn't get cooperation upfront but when I am ready to cancel, all of a sudden, a supervisor can return a call to help???

Hello,
Abraham helped me with signing me up for the home warranty. What I didn't like was his persistence pushing me to accept the 5 year deal to which I couldn't afford. He sounded like a timeshare sales person to which they don't hear the word no. He kept on and kept on and I had to keep interrupting him, I know it was rude, but I had to cut him off and just sign up and move on. It would be a good idea to retrain this representative. When the customer declines the offer the first time he needs to accept it and stop pushing the customer into something they don't want.
Thank you.

I attempted to file a claim. During the beginning stages I tried to find out if something would be covered. All they would tell me was they had to wait for a diagnoses. My water heater keeps going out. I have had companies come out and look at it and the elements keep getting blown. They said it is due to sediment at the bottom of the tank and that I need a new one. I try to find out if this is covered since it isn't thermostat, heating element, or a leak. It doesn't specifically say whether it is covered. While trying to talk to someone about what exactly is covered they just keep saying they have to wait for a diagnoses.
I say I'm not paying money for a "service call" to find out it isn't covered and have to pay the entire bill anyway and that there has to be a way to find out if this type of thing would be covered or not. The original person very clearly agitated that I'm not taking they can't tell me without a diagnoses as an answer says she will let me talk to her supervisor and he will tell me the same thing. Then hangs up on me. I call back and tell this new person that I am a little upset because I was supposed to be switched to a supervisor and they hung up and next thing I know I hear click again. So in a matter of 5 minutes I have been hung up on twice.
I don't understand how they can't tell me whether something will be covered or not and they can't put me in contact with the group that is in charge with making those decisions because all communication with them is through email. Very shady. Terrible service. I regret ever agreeing to a warranty with them. It has turned out to be a waste of time and money and I will never file anything through them. So I wasted $400 getting this warranty. Please save your money. This company is awful.

The claims process was a snap, which I was grateful for. I did the claim online, at night, and got a callback less than 12 hours later. Then, the technician was assigned later that day and called us bright and early the next morning ready to go! So thankful for a smooth process and a quick resolution. The customer service rep was easy to talk to and even when I called to ask a question after the technician left, the customer service rep was patient and understanding.

Bought a warranty, it states in the contract "Replace or repair". I filed a claim for my dishwasher after it stopped working. They sent someone out to collect my $45 and I was told he would order the part.

After another week I got an email stating the cost to repair is greater than the value. Well, in that case they want me to have it repaired or replaced, submit a claim and they will reimburse me $150! Now where can I have it fixed or replace for 150??

Daniel was very informative and made it easy for me to decide on a policy that works best for me. I signed up for 42 months and was able to use my families military status for more discounted rates. What better way to start in a new home than to have protection for all appliances and then some. I was originally only going to sign on for a year, but upon further discussion I realize the best plan and bargain for me would be the 42 months with 6 months added on for free.

I spoke with 2 different people. I signed up once (Jeff **-Jeff **) and then I received another call from another gentleman Troy ** (manager). I checked my bank statement and both charged for 2 different amounts. I called and left a message with Troy and I am waiting until tomorrow morning and hoping he will return my call and take care of the matter. I want him to take off one of the charges. Both gentlemen seemed knowledgeable and were offering good deal for the home warranty. They both explained the information to me. I just don't understand why Troy said that Jeff didn't process the order and that I wasn't going to be charged for what Jeff had written up.

Select Home Warranty responded to my claim within 24 hrs and they called me to set up an appointment the next day. The service I received was on point. The repair person arrived on time, was very knowledgeable and immediately realized what was wrong and submitted a ticket for the repair. Within 3 days my claim was approved and the damage was repaired shortly thereafter. Thank you for the prompt service and repairing the damage to quickly.

We did not have a working furnace for two days in very cold weather because this company kept giving me the run around. Finally I hired someone myself cause this could not go on any longer. Now I am only being reimbursed for 1/3 of the expense. This was the worst experience I've ever had with a warranty company. This is the third home warranty company I've ever dealt with and they are the only ones to treat me so poorly. I hope that if I have another claim before my policy expires it goes better, or unless they figure out a way to make up for this experience I will not renew or recommend them to anyone.

Was way too fast paced and rushed which I am from NY so that is a hard one for me to experience. The experience needs to be slower and allow for questions with review of terms. The quick call just by pulling up a site was a bit much and did not allow me to review your services and pricing options. This of course caused me to have to request time and multiple calls/emails before I was ready to purchase. It was also rushed once I was ready to agree to sign up, then I felt like I was being rushed to get off the phone. Customer experience needs to be better.

They did a good job. Pretty straightforward and gave me a couple discount options. I’m hoping the claim process is as easy. The price was very low in comparison to my current home owners policy and the agent on the phone was able to give me an even greater discount. They were also able to add additional coverage such as roof leak protection at no additional cost, which I appreciated. I was happy with my last home warranty company but after my year expired they raised my rates significantly. I happy to say these guys were able to offer a rate which was even lower than my original policy.

Isaac ** was very knowledgeable of the coverage Select Home offered. I am a home owner and have looked at several other companies with some of the coverage this company offers but did not find them to measure up to this companies program.

I would recommend this company to anyone who owns a house and would not be able fix the items in timely manner.

Great salesman. Only started out with one year ended up with three years. Gave me the low down on price saving per year and got me a deal for decreased cost per service call. Looking forward to having the service which I hope I won't need! I am glad he gave me his name and way to get a hold of him if any questions or concerns arose. Also happy that he explained that if I was unhappy with the service at any time, I could get a refund of any remaining monies.

Salesman was very pushy and rude. I hate being pressured. He very much Needs to gain listening skills and patience. Very good value and discounts are great. I hope that customer service will be better in the future. I have switched over to your company from American Home Shield due to their services going up a $100. I tried to explain to the salesman that even though he was giving me a great value with a five year plan that I’m unemployed right now and can’t afford to pay all of that money up front but I could not get a word in edgewise. I could tell he was very annoyed and talking over me and almost yelling.

I was contacted extremely fast - almost too fast. I had just put in my information on the website and my phone rang. I hadn't really had time to look into the company yet. However, the agent was very friendly. I'm looking for a specific item/system to be covered for our home. Most companies do not cover it. After explaining what it was, I was assured it would be but after receiving the contract I'm not so sure it is. If this company is as good as they make it seem, we will be very happy. Fingers crossed!

The representative at Select Home Warranty was courteous and answered all of my questions. I compared several companies and Select was by far the most reasonable. I purchased the combination plan which includes appliances and Air conditioner and heating units. The monthly payment was in my budget and the service call fee was less than others. I liked that this company was recognized and had been voted by others as best in service for the last couple of years. It's important to know that I can trust them if I have an unexpected problem that I can count on them to handle it.

Filed claim for broken clothes dryer on December 31, 2018. Today is March 20, 2019 and they still have not sent anyone to repair. They have "assigned a contractor" to us twice, but both times the contractor was hundreds of miles away and does not travel to our location. We have been using the laundromat and relatives' machines when possible. I have never been so frustrated with a company. We pay almost $50 a month to them in order to have peace of mind on our 5 year old home, and should have never switched from the original company we were using just to save a few dollars.

I have been without heat for 2 weeks since the technician came to my house because my "claim is being processed." Now I get an email saying they need pictures of the unit and maintenance records. I have only been here a year so this is my first maintenance. Also, the technician that was here working would have a better idea of what they would need and should have sent pictures. This company is a sham. Avoid at all costs.

If I could give 0 stars I would. Have 1 bathroom with a stoppage, they send a plumber out who has no tools and says he will have to come back the next day. I am then informed snaking my vent is not covered and he will not come back out after my husband took off work to meet him. When I call for an explanation they tell me that it is not covered but they cannot tell me where in the contract and then they tell me that it was because I paid small money for my warranty. I purchased the platinum up front. It wasn't the most expensive but it is not small money to someone who goes to work every day for it!!! If I had paid for the $1500 or $3000 warranty then maybe just a simple stoppage would be covered! Worst customer service, worst experience, would never recommend them!

Signed up on January 11th for the Platinum Care package. On March 11th I submitted a claim for my refrigerator which stopped working. The claim was assigned to a local appliance repair company who came out and stated the compressor had shorted out, wasn't worth replacing, and was recommending the unit (whole refrigerator) be replaced. Several days later I received an e-mail which stated the following:
"Dear Donald **, We have processed claim #** for your Refrigerator for policy #**. After a Review concerning the specific issue with your claim, we have determined that your Policy Does Cover this item, and you have been Approved for the Full Available Cap of $150.00 for the Repair. Please refer to your policy section 10. You may use this Reimbursement towards Repair or Replacement. Please send us your paid invoice of the repair/replacement." That's $150.00. For a refrigerator.
Here is what section 10 of the contract states: "(F)or appliances (non-heating or cooling) in the first three months, a $150 repair/replacement allowance will be paid to the customer. This repair/replacement allowance will increase to $500 after the first three months of coverage. For additional coverage options in the first three months a $150, repair/replacement will be paid to the customer. This repair/replacement allowance will increase to $400 after the first three months of coverage. In the event that the part is not available, Select's responsibility is to reimburse for the value of the part up to the policy limits." I immediately cancelled my plan/policy. Technically, they're correct. However, neither the salesman not their website advertise this, they will lead you to believe you can make complete claims after 30 days. I think it's important that you pay attention to this before purchasing a plan/policy from Select Home Warranty.
