The call came in before I could even look at the website. I took the offer because of the price. I won't say I was pressured but I don't believe the bull of only getting the discount today. I don't like that way of doing business. I think it is a crock. You offer seniors a discount and then force them to pay all at once to get it. Your policy is less expensive than the one I have that is expiring and does offer 2 extra months. If not for that I would not have purchased the coverage from you.

Buying a second home in Florida and about to close. Representative Bruce did a great job reviewing all the options and providing to me the most economical choice. After reviewing all of my options, I chose the best option for our situation and he made special efforts to ensure it was their best offer available. I would refer this company to my friends and family--they were extremely responsive and good to work with. Good job Select Home Warranty.

Jonathan was my rep, he was very knowledgeable, patient and seemed genuinely interested in ensuring coverage with sensitivity to cost. All plans were thoroughly explained and I felt no pressure to pick the higher costing plans. I feel comfortable and confident with my choice. I was even able to cover my pool for a reasonable additional cost. This was an easy, painless process and experience from the online quote, to the efficient phone call. - GREAT JOB! I would highly recommend.

It say call 24 hours a day 7 days a week. My heater stopped working. I tried to put the claim 2 times through website, but it didn’t go through and gave me the claim number. So I called them on Sunday night for claim and I was on hold for 25 min, no one answered the call. Worse!!! I called them in Monday morning, he said they didn’t get the claim that I requested. I told him to expedite the process so my heater can start working. I am in Michigan, right now it's 20 F degree and my home is cold. We don’t have anywhere to go. It's been 6 hrs but no phone call from contractor or technician yet. It's worse home warranty insurance. They don’t care or understand the urgency. No Feeling.

I was comparing prices and quality of home warranty companies. Kept coming back to Select. The response was quick - almost too quick that my phone rang after inputting some information.

Abraham is the representative I spoke with and he answered all of my questions and also offered additional discounts which were helpful. Looking forward to continued good service.

I am being given $185 to replace a $1000 washing machine...despite your policy, the verbiage to "REPLACE" a broken appliance never states that it will be depreciated to next to nothing. I would like to know how you calculate the depreciation and the life of the equipment and the cost basis of the item. Please reconsider this claim and the reimbursement to provide a reasonable amount to replace this machine which is now running approximately $760 for a similar model of this brand. I would appreciate a telephone call, thank you.

David was very helpful and answered all my questions. Very good service indeed. It's my first time buying home warranty and I tried to compare many different companies. Initially I have some doubts to buy a trustworthy home warranty because I understand some of the companies may not pay for it due to "out-out-maintenance" reason. I am glad Select Home Warranty is not one of that and no maintenance record is not required in my plan. Good service and great deal.

Fred was very helpful in signing me up. I made it clear at the beginning of the call that I did not wish to have lots of repeat calls if I chose not purchase your service. He was very undersatnding and assured me he would not call over and over again if we chose someone else. I believe that coverage offered in the Platium package is great and the opportunity to purchase a 3.5 year package as explained to me by Fred was very good and met our long range needs for a service provided by Select. I appreciate that very much.

Sol ** went out of his way to accommodate my needs for a home warranty. He helped find the right plan at a considerable savings.

Major issues: false advertising, dishonest salespeople, counter-productive customer service, failure to provide coverage for promised items, ineffective communication with customers or service providers, hidden costs for cancellation. My wife and I called Select Home Warranty while on a road trip to discuss covering our rental property. During the course of the very long phone call we asked several specific questions about the coverage. One of the questions we asked was about HVAC/air conditioning units, at which time the salesman assured us that should we have any issues that required replacement the unit would be replaced, hassle-free, with a simple phone call and a $100 visit fee.
About 1.5 months later, our tenants called complaining that the air conditioner was not working. We called Select Home Warranty who sent a technician the next day. After paying $45 for the diagnosis, we could not reach the service company until we called the technician’s personal number who said they could not contact Select Home Warranty. We finally paid an additional $280 out of pocket to send a self-procured technician to temporarily fix the AC. Our tenants went 3 days without AC in blistering Arkansas summer heat.
A week after the initial call, Select Home Warranty finally asked for photos, the serial number, and documentation for annual servicing, all of which we sent them. The next day they called to deny the claim for lack of documentation, which we corrected by telling them we had sent it the previous day. Finally, we were informed the claim was denied because Freon leaks were not covered in the policy. I complained, called, emailed, and elevated to one of their managers who eventually made an exception to provide us $800 ($300 more than the $500 the customer service representative said they could provide), which falls way short of the $3900 we had to pay to fix the unit.
Now, we are trying to cancel our original 5-year contract, and Select Home Warranty is saying they’re going to prorate their refund, remove all savings we accepted as a part of a promotion, deduct the $800 from the one claim we filed, AND charge a $75 cancellation fee. They promised an email which I have not yet received 3 days later, and after the other horrible experience I have had with them I am dreading the rest of this cancellation process. Simply put: Select Home Warranty does not provide a warranty service. They will simply take all of your money and provide no service advertised or promised. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Home warranty plans seem to be pretty similar in coverage and cost. Your company is the third I spoke with today and, ultimately, Jeff is why I chose Select Home Warranty. Jeff was to the point and didn't rely on pushy sales tactics to gain our business. That, in itself, was primarily what convinced us to go with your company. He was friendly, but not superficially so, which doesn't come often when dealing with salespeople. He was informative and prompt in responding to the voicemail I left. 10/10 salesman.

You guys are Terrible. First, never received a policy after signed up on phone, promised several times to email it but NEVER did, do not honor claims and refuse to refund monthly payments after deciding you guys are crooks and dont want to pay out for legitimate claims, even after emailing me that Furnace was determined that it needed replacement from the contractor and pictures that I sent. I was told that Joseph Marcus is the owner and would like for him to call me please **. Getting in contact with you guys is the absolute worst. Even if you leave a call back number, no one calls you back. I was warned that you guys have no problem taking money from customers, but you dont like to pay out for legitimate claims.

With all the many companies out there offering home warranties, I chose Select Home Warranty with the purchase of my new home because they came highly rated from Consumer Reports. The process for signing up was easy and they had an exceptional sign on bonus. In addition, I found they offer the lowest service call pricing in the industry, just another plus.

I was looking for another home warranty and found that Select was more affordable and also had free limited roof coverage. I looked online at reviews which all seemed good so I decided to purchase.

I called one of the sales Reps back and he was very friendly and quick to sign me up. He even worked with my budget.

The home warranty industry is generally bad, but Select Home Warranty is one of the worst that I have dealt with (and I've had warranties with several). I purchased a home warranty from this company in May of 2018 when I purchased my house. Over the past few days, while I was out of town on business, the blower motor in my furnace failed and my house's inside temperature was 55 degrees and falling by the time my house-sitter reported it to me. I called an HVAC company to diagnose and repair the furnace and called Select to file a claim.
The blower motor cost $800 and the service call cost $100. Select Home Warranty is paying $150 because I cannot produce three years worth of service records on a furnace that I have owned for less than a year. When I asked how this could possibly be a fair resolution to my claim they stated that the warranty clearly states that I was required to produce pictures of the unit (which I did) and three years of service records - naturally this was never called to my attention and I did not read every bit of fine print in the contract, nor would most people in my position, which these mercenary companies count on. Avoid Select Home Warranty.

Lots of perks for over age 55, teachers, military, etc. Free 1 year coverage with 5 year contract plus discount! With a 5+ Year contract, it locks in rates indefinitely! How can I say no to this offer?! It all took just 5 minutes of my time. Lots of coverage and only $45 service call.

My time with Select Home Warranty has been nothing short of superb. When I signed up with them in 2017 I liked what they had to offer. In this year they still deliver on their promises quality repairs. I have called once for unexpected service and got quick and straight forward response. My experience with Select Home Warranty has been good so far. I like their response time and they are very easy to approach.

They provided superior coverage in comparison to competitors. Coverage of more areas of my home for a lower overall cost on my behalf. Select also provided coverage of my septic and sprinkler systems. I would definitely recommend Select to a friend. Only advice I would offer is that not every customer wants phone calls and text messages on a product 60 seconds after looking it up. Overall very good product. Will keep Select for many years to come.

Bruce was very personable and knowledgeable when discussing the details of the various plans. We have had some problems with the reliability of previous home warranty companies. He immediately put my mind at ease. We chose the Platinum Care for its coverage of all the major systems at a reasonable price. We also added the pool and spa coverage at an additional fair rate. I feel confident Select will promptly handle our warranty issues if a problem arises for years to come. Thanks, Bruce!

This company has by far the worst customer service I've ever experienced. I've filed two separate claims with them and I'm yet to have a contractor to my house to make repairs. I paid for my contract in advance (huge mistake) and they simply don't honor their side of the bargain. For our first claim we were assigned 3 or 4 contractors after making over 10 calls only to have them tell me after I called to cancel my contract that our claim wasn't covered. Wouldn't that have been nice to know on the first call.
Now I have claim that is (supposedly) covered and it's been 4 days and still no contractor. I have also received no follow up from SHW to make sure they were delivering on their promises. I can't stress enough how much of a scam they appear to be. They take your money and seem to make it their job not to deliver on the service you paid for. They seem to make 10 times the effort to prevent you from canceling your contract than they do to get a contractor to your house. Total ripoff.

So far I've submitted 3 separate claims to Select Home. Roof leak, garage not working properly, and most recently an issue with my tub in the guest bathroom. The water won't get hot, but in the sink it does, and all over house water gets hot. Select ALWAYS tries to figure out how to NOT fix the issue. The only reason the roof was something they could fix was because I paid extra when I signed up. However, they sent a terrible contractor out. This was the 2nd contractor they reached out to me, because the 1st one NEVER called me to schedule an appointment. My roof leaked again in the EXACT SAME spot within months. Now I have to chase that guy down. They would only fix the garage door opener!
Finally, the issue with my tub, they didn't even try to send anybody out to see what the actual issue was. Based off of my description, (and I'm not a plumber or handyman), they said it wasn't included in my policy. How would you really know that if I don't know what's going on myself? Ridiculous.

At the end of August I had an issue with the faucet in my kitchen, so I called to file a claim.

By now we are in October, I called SHW back and they told me they would find someone else. I waited a few days and called back, and was told to find my own roofer. I called a roofer and he came out and gave me an estimate. I called back to SHW and they told me to send them a copy of the estimate. The estimate was for $800, to replace move the roofing materials and replace the boot on the exhaust vent. Then I was told, that the warranty DOESN'T cover shingles. In fact if you read the fine print, the FREE ROOF REPAIR is a LIE, the only thing not listed under their list of we don't cover is the BOOT, but they wouldn't cover mine.
In November I was told that they were sorry, but they wouldn't fix the roof. So I asked for a refund as I was paying for the services I needed and they weren't covering anything. I was told I would get a refund less $75 service charge, that was almost 4 months ago and I still haven't received my refund. They STOLE my money and provided me with nothing! Look for a different company, these people are THIEVES! I gave them 1 star because I had to, I would have preferred to take stars away. BUYER BEWARE.

Very helpful when it comes to current offers and discounts. Communicated thru email which is very helpful because I could not answer the phone during the day because of work. A lot of businesses will just keep bombing your phone all day long until you have to block the number.

Record temperatures led to a serious pipe break in the hot water line as it moved from our garage into the house. We got the water turned off, but there was serious damage the situation was an emergency. Normal response times would have led to more damage so we notified SHW right away... and received full back-up from SHW... also right away. As a result, SHW has at least one possible new vetted service provider in the Colorado mountains. Pipe got fixed same day as burst; drywall is due this week. Paint same time. We've had multiple temperature ranges from 20 below zero to 40 degrees leading to excessive problems with pipes, leaks etc. SHW responded quickly.

Technician was sent to me in a timely manner and my heating system was fixed temporarily while a job order was placed for the flame sensor which is the aging part that needed replacement. Also the job order for replacement was approved in a timely manner. However, reimbursement for the previous job that was done by a technician from me on the heating system took about three months before the check got to me in the mail. I was nearly discouraged by the length of the process.

There was a misunderstanding about a call out for my dryer that had stopped working. It was a bit of going back and forth with no resolution. I was then referred to Mr. James ** a supervisor. He turned the situation around in a timely and positive manner. His course of action has helped to restore my confidence in your company. I was thinking of cancelling my policy because this was not the first time I have had problems with a call out. One of the major problems is the time that it takes to get through to the relevant department. I am just left holding on for long periods of time.

So far the process was easy just seems like there is a communication issue with the process but fair and with a few calls it was settled. The process can take a little longer than you might expect but it saves money in the long run. I will be calling at lunch to figure out how to go about the next step, that is part of the lack of communication, I was approved for a check as of yesterday but that is the extent of my knowledge on what is happening next.

The representative was helpful. He walked me through the policy so I understood the questions that I had asked to them. They worked to give me the best value for the longest terms so that my policy would not increase in the near term. I would like to have seen that exhaust fans were included in the policy. With that said the representative was able to get my garage heater included in my policy.

My microwave stopped working and I sent in a claim to Select Home Warranty. It was almost new, just thirteen months old and the one year warranty was just up.

They said they would send a check I could use to purchase a new microwave and they did what they said they would do. Glad I had the warranty with Select!

The most recent call i had with the company was not good. The representative wouldn't take her time to understand my question, even after me repeating and rephrasing it multiple times. She was not American, I could tell by her accent. She was nice on the phone, however I found it rude when she interrupted me to give me the same reply to my question she'd already said 5 times. I asked to speak to a manager, then the call was silent. No response. I ended up hanging up. Other than this instance, I've been fairly happy with Select Home Warranty.

Select has always been professional and offer great pricing. I’m a renewing customer and was happy to continue my service. I filed a couple of claims and were always handled fast. My A/C broke and we had a tech come out the next day and fix it right away. Website is pretty user friendly and simple. Contract is pretty straightforward and pretty self explanatory. I have no complaints and would definitely recommend to my friends. They also have multi year terms which assist to lock rates and provide constant pricing.

Select Home Warranty - Why do you buy a home warranty? I will tell you why I did. I bought a home warranty to cover my family if we ever had a major appliance go down. 7 days ago my hot water heater went out. Cold showers in February is not fun, but I thought I was covered with my home warranty. They send out a technician to access the problem. He tells the warranty company that I have a leaking hose that connects to my water heater, and also that my water heater will not stay on. It starts up and then flames out...
He also tells them that my water heater needs to be replaced. Long story short - I am informed that my claim is denied because of a 14 dollar leaking hose that connects to my water heater. I really feel like I wasted money by buying a warranty from this company. I hope that I can help people with my story, who think this company will cover them when their appliances go down. When in the end you will end up fighting with customer service or a manager and they will find whatever excuse they need to deny a claim. I will never do business with them again. I encourage you to shop elsewhere when choosing a home warranty company.

I just purchased the warranty program and the customer service was awesome. Being a single person it is really nice to have a home warranty program. Don’t have to depend on anyone. I really enjoy the customer service rep as she was very polite and professional. My sister has home warranty and convinced me to get one. I just am recovering from surgery and my jacuzzi jests stop working and also my irrigation started leaking and with the Select Home Warranty program all that I had to do was call their number to get a schedule maintenance worker out here to handle all of the repairs for me. I am sure glad that I listened to my sister as well as the former homeowner of my house used them as well and when I asked her who she used she said Select Home Warranty. So I just want to say thank you Select Home Warranty group for making my life easier and less stressful.

My refrigerator broke in Sept, took a month before the appliance company came and repaired it. It was repaired Oct. 23, 2018. The repair was the defroster mechanism not working and ice built up in the refrigerator because it was not defrosting and the refrigerator was not cooling to proper temperature. The repair person showed me the ice build up behind the drawer in the refrigerator. Ordered the part and replaced it. That took a month. Three months later, the ice is built up again, the part he replaced is bad. I called the repair company because their website said their work is 100% guaranteed. They said they only guarantee their labor for 30 days and I would have to call Select Home Warranty.
I am sure it took way longer than 30 days for all of that ice to build up. Then they texted me telling me Select Home Warranty did not pay them for the job so they will not take any more work for them. I had not only put out the $60 deductible, but the repair company also made me pay an additional $55 because Select Home warranty only pays $150 if the job is within the first 3 months, which I was never told. I then called Select Home Warranty and they said because it is over 30 days I have to make a new claim, meaning I have to pay the $60 deductible AGAIN on something I feel was never fixed properly the first time. I will absolutely positively not be renewing my policy when it is up. I am so glad I stuck with my instinct and did not let them talk me into more than a year!

Thank you for finally sending that fine company. They came on time and waited for me to get home. Then they waited for me to get home. I do have to mention that the company that finally showed up was the fourth technicians that were assigned to my job. I also think that the service charge of $60 per appliance is too expensive. Lower the service charge. That would help a lot and make your company even more attractive.
