I just signed up for the platinum plan today, so I can’t rate them on their performance yet, but I am happy with the price, coverage and copay that I am getting with them, compared to other companies that I have used.

Return of reimbursement is SLOW the information is readily received and they will tell you it has been taken care of and you call back weeks later and it's like you are just starting over, I work M-F and do not appreciate to have to keep checking on a claim, this is just another thing I do not have tie to keep up with and I'm payinf for this service.

I have a ceiling fan in my master bedroom that has 3 speeds. The HIGH speed began to function as MEDIUM; the MEDIUM as SLOW, and the SLOW is almost non-existent. So I called Select Home Warranty to have it repaired/replaced. They denied my claim because "the fan is STILL FUNCTIONING". Apparently, unless the fan dies totally, they will not repair it. The contract states: "6.3.8. Ceiling Fan. This Agreement covers all modules, components and parts of ceiling fan affixed in the covered home necessary to its functionality. " Apparently, functionality is not considered gone even though it has LOST FUNCTIONALITY for the speeds it offers. Talk about double-talk rip-off. I feel really stupid for buying into this plan for 3 years. Would love to talk to the salesman who convinced me to go for 3 years.....

Great conversation with Agent Daniel. He did not push me into purchasing any contract. I allowed him to explain the benefits of a 5 yr long term contract, which I found to be the best deal.

Very slow to assign a technician. Also the technician's they assign are flaky. After you log a claim, they will ask you to call you which defeats the purpose of an online claim process. I have warranty with my other houses with other warranty companies and I find SHW's process to be pretty crappy. With the other companies I get a technician assigned within 5-10 minutes and normally instant when you log an online claim. Process with SHW - Log a claim - Get an email from them Asking to call them - Call them - Basically they just verify everything you put on the online claim (What's the point) - Tell you- you will get an email - No email - you follow up - Tell you that you will get a technician in 48 hours - Finally get a tech - Tech doesn't call - Keep following up with Tech Contrast this with another company where I get a tech assigned nearly instantaneously and then a tech comes out either same day or next day and fixes the issue. I don't get why Select Home Warranty doesn't get that process. The warranty itself is great value but with the slow service it is worthless as I've just ended up getting other contractors do the work and paying them for it.

I made a claim to have my central heater repaired in February. They sent me a technician that took 3 weeks to try to fix the problem. My experience with the techs they send and I have had their insurance for 4 plus years is that they send people that are the cheapest and sometimes come in vehicles without a co. Logo. I usually end up getting my own company and then face another enormous problem getting reimbursed from select home warranty. They make you jump through a lot of hoops phone calls and email trying your patience to the max. Also they depreciate all appliances etc. I truly wonder if it is worth all the time spent and aggravation.

Select took my claim over the phone. Very pleasant transaction. The next day they called me back with a proposal which was satisfactory with me and my husband. The garbage disposal will be paid for but I must admit I didnt expect them not to install it which was a little disappointing . Overall good experience.

Sales person was knowledgeable and friendly enough but too aggressive. I mentioned several times that I wanted to talk it over with my wife but he just ignored my request and as a result I didn’t get two things that I needed coverage for our stand alone freezer and ice maker. I’m 67 years old and been married for 47 of those years and my wife and I always talk things over. The company I used in Georgia for 10 years I never had a claim to file but when we were selling our home one of the requests was a Home Warranty. Well I got a price from them but when I googled them I was terribly surprised with all the negative reviews that started with them denieing claims that homeowners had to go to great lengths to make them pay, so I went back and reviewed them further and they were way down the list while Select Home was at the top I called them and purchased at a higher price because I felt that my name was on this as well. But guess what when I googled this time in Indianapolis my old company was at the top. Select Home was third down but I went ahead and called them but now I’m not sure this was a good move. My old company gave me time to talk with my wife and even though the rateings had went down in Georgia from when I originally purchased my plan to being at the top in Indianapolis I feel that I might need to call them! I don’t like the old car dealer pressure techniques to sale. So now I feel somewhat confused. I will call them today and see how they respond to me adding these two things that will determine whether I stay or call my old company!!

Select Home Warranty is a company that will take care of your home repairs in a timely way. Usually I can expect to receive an email the same day I submit a claim. It doesn't take long to schedule someone to come out and take care of the problem. Turn around time for repairs is usally within 2-3 days and I'm happy about that.

I choose Select Home Warranty based on price and service charge for repairs. I did not however read section 10 of my policy only to find out that my washer and dryer are capped together so the company paid repairs in January 2018 and now when my machine needs repair after they accepted my claim I find out that there is only $14 left to repair the washer after I have paid for service call. Further more I found out that there is a 'cap' on my appliance ex:$500 for refrigerator and $2000 for AC. My suggestion is to read very carefully not just what is covered but to find out what the limits are and know repairs to any appliance is only two times within 'cap' and washer and dryer are considered one single appliance

Select Home Warranty (SHW) company misrepresents the warranty. I have the premium select warranty. If your appliances are old if the repair is more than the depreciated value SHW will not repair. The company will give you the depreciated value. My wash machine cost over $800 but the depreciated value is $125 minus the 45 I paid for the service call. I do not have a warranty. My home is 10 years old, so many items will not be covered for repair. I asked if something happened to my heater and the repair was more than the depreciated value would SHW give $125 for replacement SHW did not say no. I had a Sear's warranty and Sears replaced items if the item could not be repaired, none of this nonsense of depreciated value. I had American Shield Warranty and American Shield also replaced appliances that could not be repaired. Select Home Warranty possibly replaces new appliances but I doubt it. I have dishwasher that is less than a year old and Select Home warranty told me to call manufacturer of the dishwasher because it should be under manufacturer's warranty. I made a mistake buying this policy. I will spend more money for repairs out of pocket. It's like I am paying them to take my money and pay for repairs too! Also, unlike Sear's and American Shield that allow you to pay one deductible for similar appliances or problems with one service call; Select Home Warranty (SHW) is 45 for each appliance. Select Home Warranty only repairs broken appliances. My dryer started making load noises. I called SHW and customer service told me that service is only for broken appliances. If I can still use the dryer it is not broken. Appliances making loud noises are not covered. Do not believe the sales person their warranty is not comparable to other warranties. If your appliance is new repairs are not covered SHW customer service will tell you to call the manufacturer. If your appliances are old SHW will give you the depreciated value which will not cover 1/8th an appliance cost. Do not believe what SHW represented tells you beware read the fine print.
