    Jake ** was very thorough in explaining the advantages of 5 year contract with a locked rate for future renewals. He provided the details of what is covered and in addition roof leakage coverage was added for free. Copay was also lower than the other companies. I read few other reviews from existing customers and felt comfortable to go with Select Home Warranty.

    I purchased the 3 year plan. I had to use the service for a dryer repair. I contacted the company and had to wait almost week to get someone to come and look at the dryer. The man came and found the issue. He then contacted the company to have them place the order the parts. They waited 2 days to order the parts and then told me it would be 3-5 days for the parts to arrive. 7 days later and still no parts. I called them at least 4 times for an update. Now I’m told that they order the parts again and it will be another 3-5 days!!!! Do not go with this company. It is a SCAM!!!

    Select Home Warranty people are rude and it's a Scam. I bought this warranty for 7 years in advance and I place a claim after so many years for my Garage Door opener. They first took a week to get someone to come and find out the issue. We paid $65 dollar also and then they tell the technician to start working on the issue as it is approved.

    After 30 mins the technician gets a call that this is not approved. The customer have to pay it out of their pocket. Of course since it was a long argument between me and the Select Home Warranty the technician leaves and my garage door is still not fixed. Anyone can come inside my house. Select home warranty is a scam. Please don't buy this policy from them. All they want is your money. I asked them to cancel my policy. They are asking a $75 fee for cancellation. Like seriously how much free money you want.

    I have a cracked pipe under the house that is spraying water on the sub flooring. I summitted the claim on 12 days ago so I can get the pipe fixed and stop the leak. They keep wanting a serial number for the unit. There is not unit. It's a small portion of a pipe. I'm still waiting to hear back from them. This is a fairly common straightforward repair. So far, none of the customer service reps in the claim department can figure this out. They don't even understand the type of piping the was used and the type that will be used. I keep getting the runaround. So, I'm not impressed. I was told all I had to do was call their number and they'd take care of the rest. Well that's big lie!

    This warranty is a waste of money. My washer has two issues requiring two separate $70 service calls. Although my washer would not work, the repairs were deemed not critical to the operation of the washer. After MANY phone calls and hours on hold, etc. they offered me $150 for my $1300 washer. Between the policy cost and service calls I am out over $600. Waste of time and money. Plus customer service is inept.

    This company is a scam. Avoid them. Two of the burners stopped working in our stove - we cannnot turn them on or adjust the temperature on them. The contract states that “all parts” are covered. We paid the diagnostic fee and a tech comes out and says it cannot be fixed so the warranty will buy us out for a new cooktop. Well, they denied the claim, pointing to a completely different section in the contract saying that our problem is excluded. When you read that section, pretty much every single item on everything in your house can be excluded. It’s very vague and uses puffery language that they can hide behind to stop covering what they promise. Total sham of a company - avoid the mess by avoiding them.

    Select Home Warranty is a "sham"! They are not responsive when they are in the wrong and owe the consumer money. They send someone to your house for a repair, the supposed repairman takes pictures and leaves--stating he will get back to you with a part estimate, and then calls Select and states the appliance part is under warranty--which is totally untrue. So Select won't fix the appliance (refrigerator) using the warranty clause in its contract as the excuse, the manufacturer states it is NOT under warranty and wants $490+ to come out, the original repairman takes off with my $60 and states he cannot talk to me further, and I am left with a broken refrigerator for over 10 days while they go back and forth.

    In essence, Select sends people out as a "show" to state there is a warranty issue and then doesn't have to perform under its contract. You can't talk to anyone in charge at Select and they don't respond after I paid a private repairman to fix the fan at a cost to me--which took no more than 1/2 hour in repair time. Select refuses to pay for that repair and refuses to refund me the $60 co-pay I paid to the repairman. Ugh!!! This was the most awful experience with a most disreputable company!

    I purchased 3 separate policies (one each for unique properties). Within first 60 days of coverage my clothes washer stopped working. I called and Select Home Warranty (SHW) told me a technician would be assigned. A few days later they told me I had the option of finding my own technician. After several more days they told me I HAD to find my own technician. I did and emailed them the estimate on Aug 11. Told it would take 24-48 hours to approve. After several calls, I was still waiting on approval on Aug 18 (20 days after submitting the claim)!

    I was finally told it was not covered since I was within the first 30 days of my policy... no replacement parts are covered. So be careful when signing up... coverage does not begin for 30 days, then the next 30 days does not cover replacement of anything, including parts. VERY disappointed with time it took to get me an answer and most customer service reps read the same thing over and over from a script so can't answer your questions.

    Select Home Warranty often delays or dismisses legitimate plumbing claims. Reviewers everywhere—including on the BBB, Trustpilot, Reddit, and in industry reviews—describe slow responses, claims denials, and low payouts. My mom’s experience aligns with this pattern: she was repeatedly put off, told she’d be reimbursed, but never saw a dime. When she tried to cancel—even though she hasn’t used service—they won’t allow it, and a $75 fee still applies. Their customer service is unresponsive, makes excuses, and calls never get returned.

Shortly after I got that email, I got an email from the resolution team at 1040am declining my claim with some quote of the policy. They provided me a number to call if I had any questions.

    I recently had a plumbing stoppage. They really needed to jet the main line, but put in for a snake of the line for about $560 thinking more likely to get approved and less cost. When they called it in to Select Home Warranty, they only wanted to approve $165. Seriously, they're going to pay 1/5 the cost. That's a pitence of the cost. This is why contractors hate dealing with home warranties. I had another company come out that had been here previously and they did it as courtesy as I had them put in an access above ground while they were here. I will be looking for a different warranty company.

This was not the case. We found out after having an issue with an appliance 2 days after the warranty had been purchased. Which wasn't a big deal but we were lied to from the start.

    Then Afterwards we had a claim we had to submit a month after we had paid over $500. They denied it when our a/c wasn't working so we had to pay out of pocket.

    I had filed a claim in March of 2025 to have a dishwasher repaired. They send out a tech to times to try and fix it. The first time the motor was replaced (4 April) and it failed again then the motherboard was replaced (15 May). When I called them at the end if May they said they had not got the report that the motherboard had been replaced. Finally around 4 Jun they said they had the report. But when I talked to them again they didn't have it and then finally on 10 Jun one of the customer service operator said they had it and it stated that it was unrepairable. But SHW wants to send out another tech to check it out. Got an email on 10 Jun for a new tech to come look, but when I called to find out the status again I had them call the company and they stated that they don't service my area. Spoke with a Supervisor (Raymond **) and they said they would fix me up with someone else (who again didn't service my area).

    When I called again on 19 July they told me yet a different tech who would be contacting me, this one did. I called a few more time with them saying they still can't do anything because they have no report stating it was unrepairable, Finally on 28 July they said that they got the report, on that same day I received a email stating that if I did not contact them about my claim it was going to be closed. I have been calling them every other day for months now. Got a email from the claims department that stated that they would give me $175.00 for replacement. I had only had the dishwasher for 3 yrs. But I found out that the depreciation goes from date of Manufacture. They told me that my dishwasher was 7 yrs old when in fact it was only 5.

    I did my research as I told the supervisor I would and when I called back to tell them that they should be giving me back $500.00 they change their tune and said that they is what they had decided on. Then I was told I wouldn't even get that until I went and got a dishwasher on my own and paid it and then they would reimburse me. Well I did that and after I send in the first picture (it was a little blurry) I resent it and was told they never on 7 August that they never received it. So I had to resend it about 3 times with the lady on the phone. But when I requested to talk to a supervisor he stated that they had received the second picture (which was good) on the 4th. But that my reimbursement form would be sent out 7 days from the 7th. Which makes no sense since they received a good one picture on the 4th.

If you want to cancel after 30 days, they’ll charge you $75, plus any service costs in addition to what you’ve paid.

    Service is horrible, and website provides no status update. It feels like they are trying to deny your claim and find any reason they can once you file claim. They denied my claim when the fridge control board needed replacing after the initial 30 days (which might only cost a couple hundred dollars).

    This is the worst home warranty coverage you can get. I do not recommend you waste your money on this business. Your warranty policy may state an item or part is covered but Select will deny it based on other factors. My washer went out and it needed a new panel, Select Home Warranty states that panels are covered but only up to a certain amount, so if you have a fancy smart washer, panels range up to 500 bucks select will only cover 175. So you pay 69 for your service fee and in the end you really get 106 towards your replacement washer.

    I just had a service call for my Air Conditioner. The contractor stated that the Fan Motor needs to be replaced due to wear and tear. Select home warranty denied the claim stating that it's due to an electrical failure, even though my policy CLEARLY STATES that fan motors are covered and the contractor clearly stated that it was not an electrical failure but wear and tear.

    Do not waste your money on this HORRIBLE excuse of a company!!! So many problems with them. My washer broke, they couldn’t get someone in to look at it for OVER 2 months & counting, kept telling me they were working on it, and would have someone in within 48 hours, kept prolonging. Said I can hire someone if I wanted and they would reimburse me but I wasn’t gonna fall for that. There’s always a loophole with them. Why would I pay for home warranty just to pay for someone on my own and hope I get reimbursed. It’s their job to find someone and that’s why I pay them. I heard companies don’t want to work with them and do their jobs because they take FOREVER to pay them so that’s why they couldn’t find someone to take my job.

    I finally had enough and told them to refund me and cancel my plan. They charged me for every single day I had them even tho they did not do anything for me. That’s definitely why they kept prolonging me saying they will have someone in 48 hours so that they could take as much money as they could from me. I spoke to multiple managers too and not even a manager could help solve this. Managers would also take forever to call me back. Sketchy awful company!!

    If I could give a zero rating I would without question. I am a new customer of ten months and place two claims the past two weeks: 1) ice maker on my refrigerator was not working, 2) heater manifold on my pool heater was vibrating and shuts down. First, the ice maker repair was denied saying it was an exclusion on my Platinum Plan I have and should have add ice maker option at the beginning of the policy. There was no mention of such an option when I first signed up. Second they did not have a technician to diagnose my pool heater problem. My technician clearly explained the heater manifold was the problem yet they came back and said a leak is not covered under the terms of the contract. We had two follow up calls with the claims department with my technician on the line to explain there was no leak. Each time they came back to say there is a leak and leaks are not covered. Wow what do they cover?

The main issue I signed up for was the potential of my AC going bad. And asked them, if it goes bad, will they fix it. The answer yes. Well, long story short, months go by and then the AC goes bad. Well... They didn't fix it. They danced around the issue, saying under section blah blah blah... it will not get fixed. So basically, they will say anything to get you to sign up, but when you actually need them, they won't help. I can't say how disappointed I am. I don't know how they have 5 stars at all.

    Don't approach this company. The way they handle their claims is ridiculous. I called about an odor/Sulphur smell coming from my toilet that occurred randomly. I had to take a day off work for the plumber to arrive, who couldn't smell anything (as it's random). He recommended possibly pulling the toilet out and replacing the wax seal, but at the time there was nothing he could do. He reported this to Select Home Warranty and left.

    I was eventually able to mostly replicate it, contacted Select Home Warranty again and scheduled the tech to come out again. I had to take a second day off work, losing money. The tech came and informed Select Home of his findings (which were the same as the first time), and Select Home closed the claim citing that they do not cover appliances that aren't malfunctioning and are just "smelling".

    Keep in mind, we don't really know what the cause is, but this was the tech's best guess on resolving the issue. But fine, assuming they don't cover "smells", this is something the tech informed them the first time, as far as pulling the toilet to resolve the smell I was reporting. They could've told me they wouldn't be covering this claim after the first report. Instead, they let me waste more time just to tell me after a second day off. This is probably the most retarded way I've seen a company function, with a total lack of regard for their customers.

Finally got approved to hire my own company after being without my central AC for 2 months! AC went down again this year and same story but had to buy another window AC due to the heat wave. First AC “specialists” they recommended was from 60 miles away, so they sent another from closer to my home. He came and checked my system. His recommendation was to replace the system. That is over $12k! He never submitted the paperwork to SHW and this is THEIR guy. They okayed me to hire my own guy so I called the same reputable company that fixed my unit last year. $500 and it works great.

    What does SHW do? They deny my claim because I didn’t get pre-approved for the parts and labor. Keep in mind I have been without my central AC now for a month and had to buy another window AC because they made me wait a month already. This is their scam practice.

We were told that it would take 24 - 48 hour to find us a contractor. After thinking about it for an hour or two I called SHW back to ask them if we are to let the water in our basement stay there (in that time frame alone it had gone up) until SHW found us a contractor. I talked to 2 people who told me they couldn't tell me. I asked them if I put my own sump in would it void the contract. The third person told me I could look for my own contractor if I wanted to. I tried to find a contractor but to no avail. I did not hear from SHW until July 23 when I had to call them myself.

    I asked them why no one contacted me for 6 days to see if I had gotten anything resolved. No answer to that question. I told them that I had put a new sump pump in because I didn't want the damage to get any higher. They denied my claim because of that. I was told they didn't call me back because since they told me I could look for my own contractor they didn't have to look for one themselves and didn't have to get back to me. What was I suppose to do? Let the water continue to rise in my basement. To me this is not about the $120.00 I spent on the sump pump but about the terrible customer service we received.

    I asked the last person I talked to if it was in the contract that since they told me I could look for my own contractor that they didn't have to continue to look for one themselves. I was told that was not in the contract but, that is how the process goes. I was also told that the next claim I have should be handled better. Of the 6 or 7 people I talked to only one showed any empathy for our situation. His name is Sam. This situation was horrible and I doubt if I hear from anyone after this, but it would be nice if someone called and understood the situation we were in and what we had to do.
