Be honest with people from the beginning. This is basically a fraud what they are doing. In the beginning, when I purchases the packets, it was if anything happens, we'll reimburse anything that needs to be fixed on your appliance. When I called to say I have a problem, they said they were not available and I had to pay from mu pocket because I was supposed to have my machine maintained for the last two years. That was never mentioned in the contract.

The first time I tried to use my warranty, they never showed up and the second time, they did not want to cover the sot associated with the problems. They need to be more up front with their policies. The idea that they only cover the depreciated value of the parts is unacceptable because that would not replace the parts. Also they expect technicians to come out on multiple occasions rather than just fix the problem. I think that is not an acceptable business practice.

I have had some difficulties working with select home warranty in terms of how long it takes to get issues dealt with that should be covered according to my policy. There doesn't seem to be any follow up, I end up on a forty five minute phone call almost every time because I have problems. They are deceptive. I think the warranty should have a relationship with the service provider. I wouldn't recommend select home warranty to anybody.

I had the garbage disposal and ceiling fan go and they replaced them for a good price, it just is taking forever to get the reimbursement for the ceiling fan.

You get a good discount if you apple for the services over a certain amount of years. Everything I've had to be dealt with has been dealt with.

They've always found competent people to do the repairs. I've used them a couple of times and they've always stood behind what they say they do.

Best coverage for the least price. I had the garage opener repaired and they sent a technician out right away, it was a good experience.

Find a different company. They take forever to get back to you. Two of my water heaters broke and I had to do two separate calls and they fixed one but didn't fix the other because the valve or something. It's almost useless having.

Steer clear of select home warranty. Their coverage is very poor. My stove went out two and a half weeks ago. The tech had to wait for authorization from select home warranty and they never gave it to him. They promised a 24-48 hour turn around and they kept putting me off. I still don't have an oven that operates and they refuse to replace it. The reduced the value of my high end oven down to $200.

I only used them one time but I thought the service was excellent. It just takes them a long time before they make the decision if they are going to pay for it or not.

They lost my warranty information and it took me a week to get a warranty claim process because they messed up on the initial warranty. It took 3 phone calls and two and a half weeks to get my dishwasher fixed.

Been a little disappointed in the quality of service people that have showed up at my house. Usually not local. I have used quality people locally that actually I would prefer using.

Don't want to pay for a fan motor on my air conditioner. I have had two policies for about 5 years only used one once minor pay out. They say because they added Freon to my unit to they will not pay on motor or labor. Bill 888.00 Freon was 395.00 I think they owe me the rest of Bill minus the deductible. Not a happy customer. Offered me 250.00 calling it a coursity pay.

It seems that Select dispatches "fly-by-night" contractors. I submitted a claim for my refrigerator and Select dispatched a ROOFING company! The technician was suppose to come to my home today BUT never showed up! I am VERY UPSET with Select's choice of contractors! I wasted a days vacation for this service call!

They do not have enough contractors to service any claims in my service area (Clarksville/Nashville). Cannot follow contract guidelines to contact my property manager with questions. In addition, they respond to claims via email directing you to call a contact number. That number is another toll-free number that you have to navigate through to speak to a representative (with an extended wait time)

They are a scam. They always have a reason why they can't pay it in a clause with loopholes in the country and they use them so they don't have to pay for what they promised you in the sales pitch. They don't care about people they will leave babies and Elders in the hot heat while repeating over and over after 48 hours we got another 48 hours before a supervisor can call you then never calls before they can move into approval then never approve. I paid up frount in all 2500 for 6years and we on year 2 I want my money back they never did a repair for me yet

Everything you turn in, it seems like they don't accept it. They tell you to call your own repair person. My water faucet was leaking and they told me that I have to call my own person and then they refused to pay it.

The service was poor. They said they would have someone to me within forty eight hours when I had my refrigerator fail and it took a week before I got somebody to even diagnose the problem, and select said they would not pay the travel fee because there were pretty far away.

Seems like customer service was responsive. I do think there should be some sort of little regular maintenance for me who are not filing any claim complaints as part of the policy.

On both occasions I've used my warranty, they were unable to assign a technician to deal with my problem and I had to go out and find my own technician. The very first time, I waited and waited and it was 10 days later they still hadn't found someone. They need to get more technicians. I did get reimbursed.

When I need it, I need it quickly because I am handicapped, and it took two or three days to get my air conditioning fixed. They should send a service company quicker since we pay them a reasonable price.

Lack of support. I made a claim and they had to do some research to figure out if it was covered. Select never called me back. In the meantime I found out I could fix it for cheaper than my deductible.

The monthly cost and deductible are lower than most others but I pay the money and get nothing in return. It does sometimes take a while for customer service to get back to me and every time I've tried to use it, I get a call back saying they don't cover it.

It takes long to get people to come and fix your stuff and they don't fix everything they are supposed to. My air conditioning went out and I had somebody come out to look at it and they said I would need new unit and select home warranty would not cover it.

I though they would save me money but there is no point for me to pay for the server and then pay for something to be fixed. I had a problem and it was the circuit board that was broken and I had to call somebody else because Select Home Warranty offered to pay only a hundred and fifty dollarrs of the three hundred and fifty dollars it was gonna cost.

Scam. Very costly mistake. I just renewed after the first year. Air conditioner (47 year old air conditioner!) wasn't working right or cooling. They sent THEIR person to look at it, it was denied. Btw his invoice stated $60 for the call, wouldn't provide me with any information as to the problems). I'm out many thousands of dollars to replace. I would NEVER RECOMMEND this fake warranty plan. I have a complaint in with the attorney general's office.

They represented local repairman were available. They were not. We have waited 6 weeks for someone to fix our clothes washer. One refused to come because the warranty company did not reimburse them for a previous customers work. They orally said we should buy a new appliance, but failed to reimburse us the full amount.

The companies they choose for repairs are no where close to being great. In many circumstances the repair company ends up contacting you because Select doesnt pay all the fees.

Sometimes they don't call back and you have to wait about two months before you get a check. It took them like 6 weeks before my garbage disposal got checked.

Every time I call they have not been able to find a technician to come out. When I put in a claim it takes 2 or 3 people to find out how far along my claim is. I had to wait forever to get reimbursed. The point of having this warranty company is so I don't have to do the legwork to find a technician.

While they're responses are quick, promt, and courteous their service providers were less then. I feel like I was completely left out in the could. I had a problem unresolved for 2 weeks before I canceled their services. I would like Select Home Warranty to do a better job in hiring the technicians they hire.

Needed to use our warranty in January and were told twice we hadn't read the fine print. So they weren't going to cover our claims. They did come through quick but not upfront about the fine print.

I was their customer in previous year and because of their good services when needed, they were available. I had other companies like American Home Shield and Choice with littler lower quote but wanted to continue and give SHW an opportunity to add more services and good coverage. One star was less not because others were good but to give a chance to add more appliances or to improve service and reduce service call charges. Thanks again and hope you continue good rates and services.

My last policy went up $120 after the first year so I started looking elsewhere. Select had the best deal and locked in the price. The longer I subscribed the cheaper it got. Plus you can cancel anytime after the first year and get your money back. Sounds good to me. Thanks Ray.

Great price, great service call payment. They care and come to fix the problem. Other home warranty companies that I have had always try to argue or deny claim through some loophole. I am new to Select Home Warranty but so far they have taken care of home repairs and no problems. Glad to have them on my side..Thanks
