Service speed is terrible, it's hard to reach a person by phone for service needs. Technicians hired aren't even searchable if licensed and can't complete work needed. Still had to pay another company to come out.

I have not seen the benefits of being a Choice customer. When it was time for an actual needed repair, I have to pay $2400 out of pocket for there placement coils, other materials and labor. Not seeing the value considering what I have to pay to renew and the service charge for maintenance.

The case manager that was assigned has missed appointments and when I was told I'd hear back by Tuesday, by the end of the week I still have not heard anything. Meanwhile I have no A/C in over 100 degree weather with a newborn

They use people that are not a big company.or reliable. Takes days to get anything done and the last request I had faucet driping for 2 weeks. The first plumber never showed up or called on day of appt. Never heard if any of these companies

I have to wait a possible month to receive the e-card to Lowes that was offered to me for my refrigerator. I wasn't even offered a check instead of the e-card. It has been since June 16 and I still haven't received anything. I am using coolers and buy ice daily, which is costly.

I’ve been a customer since 2020, but their customer service and coverage/usefulness has declined substantially. I finally canceled out of my contract after spending hours on the phone with them and hours with the (poor quality) contractors they assigned to my case over the course over 2 months. They immediately deny claims and make up things they see in pictures submitted. It’s a very frustrating and time intensive process that just didn’t provide worthwhile value. Very disappointing.

Robert Holt Georgetown, TX

I filed a claim for my AC unit and the tech came out and diagnosed the blower motor was out. CHW denied claim saying that motor was still covered under manufacture warranty. The tech, the company that installed the unit and the manufacturer confirmed the only had a 5 year warranty and the unit was 7 1/2 years old. They gave me all kinds of excuses to buy time in the hot Texas heat until I finally bought the motor and repaired unit myself. I paid up front for 3 years ( around $1100.00) with promises of what a great company they are

your customer service is terrible. you also approved some work on my electrical system that I expected to at least be reimbursed some of it. you said my reimbursement would be $138. That didn't even cover the diagnosis.. it took over 1 month to get approval for my work to be approved . If I could rate Choice Home Warranty less than 1 star if any.

If 0 stars was an option...that's where I would rank them. Non-responsive & continue to have excuses when they're unable to schedule a provider for a warranty claim. Customer service is ludicrous and elevating an issue is practically impossible -- and when successful, it results in the same 'call center' standard script answers...no one is able to actually do anything at the customer service level.

Not a good warranty company, microwave went out they didn't replace only gave something towards a new one. Central air went out they sent out a company but when the company sent photos for repair approval they gave them such a hard time that they didn't even want to work with this company anymore they never found me another technician but gave me the option to find my own then when the technician found sends in required documentation we called to get status of claim and are basically told they are not going to cover or reimburse the cost.. piss poor service

I would give them a zero if I could. The first call was a 5 and went great. This call was supposed to be taken care of four days ago. We notified Choice that nothing had been done even though came by, inspected the job and was paid and promised to return in two days at 1:00pm. Calls not returned. No contact from Choice Home Warranty. Still waiting for a call, message and repair - no response from anyone.

I dont like the idea you pay so much to get the plan. Pay for person to come out and then additional momoes because something in fine print is not covered. I will ho with different warranty company next year. I have had nothing but negative results since 2019

I had an issue with my ducktwork in my house. it says in the warranty it is covered. We bought the house in 9-2020 and tried to file a claim in 2021. We were told it was a pre existing problem and they would not cover it. we had a home inspection before we bought and was told nothing of any issues.

Both times I have used them it has taken forever for them to respond and then they told me to get my own that they didn't have anyone to work on my problem! That's why I have a home warranty. I don't want to have to find my own repairman. Unacceotable!

Just had a person come out to check a waterheater he replaced a thermocoupler and said we would be good until we could order a new unit. When my daughter came home from work later that day the house was full of natural gas and the pilot was out on the water heater. Have reached out to the provider and to choice warranty since Friday and have gotten no reply. This afternoon after waiting on hold for 35 minutes the provider informed me that they are waiting on you to ok the order. This could have ended in tragedy.. I think the communication from choice has been abysmal.

Choice Home Warranty assigned a regrigerator repair person through Sears Home Services. The service person behaved in an unethical manner during his repair. I contacted Choice Home Warranty twice to make a complaint and request follow up remediation. This took place on May 31st, and to date, we have received no reply to our repeated requests by telephone and in writing! No concern for the well-being of its customers!!!!

Our experience has been that the companies that accept work from the portal are not the best. In the instances where no company has picked up the work from the portal - our experience has been that no company is willing to go onto your portal to complete the information you want in order for us to get reimbursed.

I don't understand the purpose of paying a lot a month and then have to pay $85 for a service charge. Also you're only allowed to make one request in a 39 day period. Sometimes things breakdown at the same time which causes you to decide which is more important!!! Just stupid!!!! Then if they send someone out to fix it and it still doesn't work then that's another $85. Ripoff

Lack of communication between contractor, CHW, and home owner. There was no notification that the repair was authorized, so we were waiting. Then we were told CHW was only going to cover $150 of a $700 repair. The AC company said this was based on a phone call and there was no documentation. Additionally, this is replacing a component that is broken and does not require additional modifications.

Rating it a 1 is being generous! Had multiple problems trying to get my refrigerator fixed. Had this policy for years...First time I ever tried to use it, terribly long delays in getting someone out here, argumentative customer service reps. THEN they didn't want to pay for anything. Absolutely the worst. They spend too much time trying to figure out how to NOT PAY!!

Denied a claim for my my microwave which broke. The microwave was 28 years old. The denial was " you must of abused it". The technician who came out to fix it was shocked. So I paid the $65 tech fee for nothing. But two days later my toilet broke and they did fix that with the $65 service fee.

1. A thorough verification is needed of contractors, had one show up, but did no work. Paid a guy under the table and off the books to do actual work. 2. Put a claim in for 2 things, 1 was fixed (dryer), 1 denied (AC). AC denied because of existing problem, but Dryer not? Choose picks and chooses hat they want to repair, using unlicensed contractors.

They never pay claims, their customer service is poor, they say they will get back to you and they don't, you hanger to wait forever to get a technician out, I have been without HVAC in over 100 degree Texas heat for over a month. The tech that finally came out tried to upsell me a new system. I got my own guy out there and he said it's not necessary. We have window units (which I had to pay for) in all my rooms now until I can get someone to work on my system

Very poor customer service. No quality control. I put in a claim for a broken diverter knob & the rep put divider nub in the claim. He typed this more than once. I had to call several times to speak with a rep. I am calling to cancel my warranty tomorrow. I paid for a year & expected the service I was promised. No follow up was done on my claim. The rep I spoke with today refused to correct the mistakes on the original claim.

I was screwed on a claim put on Freon leaking air Conditioner. The case managers were rude and took up to 5 days to call me back. Total experience was the worse experience I have ever deal with! You are tricked into thinking your buying peace of mind. But there quick to take your money and do anything to decline your claims. I was told by there contractor that was sent to diagnose are ac problem, that they have several others that were in the same situation as I was in and got screwed just as I did. Your company is a big ripoff!
