They're a fraud. They just hook you up with a technician. Which we can easily find on google or any local please. They charge you $800+ and then when you need them, the technician would come to the property and give you a $1000+ estimate and state that the warranty will NOT cover it... WTF is the warranty for then. its a fraud people!!!

Fail a total fail. Called with a work order on plumbing June 3, They sent a plumber on July 29th. The plumber did not have the right tools and did not come back. It is now Aug 10. Well over 60 days and no service. This it the worst service and qualified for worst home warranty firm ever.

Terrible company! We have been without AC for three weeks now. We make 6 calls a day and we get told they are waiting on a report. Additionally, when you do speak to someone they are not American and cannot be understood. They say they will call you back but they never do. Do not waste your money on this company.

1 Star...only because 0 was not an option! Difficult to deal with, no callbacks, texts or emails from the company when there is a claim. No service provided 4 days after I made a claim. They use shoddy contractors. Worst company ever. Stay away.

Would not recommend this company. I had them for 2 different homes. They make every excuse to not cover a repair. First was a furnace, they said it was old so they'll only cover half the cost. Second was plumbing. Said was not normal wear and tear. To me it's a waste of money to have this warranty company .

if I could do negative stars I would. We have had our thermostat go out 3 times and now they "supervisor" tells me what is your problem the heat works now. My problem is there is an issue which is causing the thermostat and the unit to not talk they don't care and I went without heat for 4 days with a 10 month old in the house.

Totally agree with all the previous bad reviews. Plus they will send you an invoice for nonperformance job. They send out people can't fix your problem when I call an handy man, he fix it within 10 mins. Bad performance bad customer service but excellent money collection. Don't waste your money.

TE-Gabriel C allowed a company that took over a month and a half to fix a dish washer that is still not fixed!!! He was rude and would not even send the $74 part necessary to fix the dishwasher.

Consumer beware! We went 10 days taking cold showers and then ended up paying $550 out of pocket plus the $75 service fee. Don’t be fooled thinking you’re lessening your risk of a big unexpected expense. Wasted our money for six years. Stick with your local contractors. These insurance companies are a scam.

This company should be avoided - as they don't care about their Customers. The vendors they use are not experienced in their work. They send HVAC / Heating and Cooling company to fix my dishwasher - so the job does not get done right- and I have to pay $75 plus the hefty premium. STAY AWAY FROM them.

I used to have this. I cancelled it because I had a leak under my sink and they never sent anyone. Then they charged me some fees for canceling. They didn't even care that my kitchen floor was ruined. This is a scam. They just want your money. You are better off having a savings account just for home repairs.

I will call a service tec and cancel my service. Their option is to give me 150.00 towards a 500.00 portable air conditioner. Who can wait 48 hours in 100 degree weather.

Terrible, terrible, terrible. Best they could offer when air-con went out for over a week in the AZ Summer was $50 for a fan. The company are aware of heart issues that the tenant has but refused to budge on their fan offer. When asked for a cheap hotel they flatly refused. Don’t do it, this company is a rip-off.
