Mary Carpenter Mount Vernon, Washington

We realized that our home, being older will have certain things crop up. After having the plan for about 10 months, our furnace stopped working. They say that you find out how good your insurance is when you see how they handle claims. We were very happy with the way that claim was handled. A few weeks ago our garage door opener stopped working. You set up a company to come out and do an inspection and make recommendations on what needed to be done. They did not show up for the appointment and we what’s the company app online and found that most people who commented on their. Service were very, just satisfied with them and even said that there were times when they made recommendations for things that did not even need to be fixed. You didn’t have any services in our area. But within a short time, you contacted a local company and arrange to have them become providers with your company.. That was very much appreciated and the claim from that point was completing right away.

I have had great luck with all of the service providers that they have sent. The only ding against them is when they tried to short-change me when my stove went out. It was a long back and forth to get compensated. Nevertheless, when my refrigerator went out, they were great and gave me replacement money very quickly.

Disliked the fact that our scheduled appointment did not occur on the scheduled day. It wasn’t until the next day we had service. The issue we reported was not resolved based on the same issue reoccurring in a worse state. We called an AC service company that diagnosed the issue and fixed it. In total we laid a $75 fee to 24/7 AC and over $950 to get our air conditioner checked out and repaired. Very disappointed with HWA and the 24/7 AC company.

I have 3 homes warranted for several years, but never file a claim, so I don't know how good the coverage is. I did start a claim on a refrigerator and was surprised to hear about $75 service charge, but resolved problem and canceled the claim and got a prompt refund before proceeding. Let' review if and when I have a real claim. Then you may receive a higher or lowere acore

As a REal estate broker with San Gabriel association of realtors I was familiarized with your Co at meetings and wanted to try it. However I have been disappointed on two occasions. The tech was unable to locate a model no to replace parts, I was told it’s my responsibility. I paid the $75 service call, got a receipt then my bank statement showed 77.25😏

Have good experience with them. I had one furnace fan I couldn’t get a repair man from them Cold day last Dec I called my own repair man but didn’t call them for approval until after the repair. My wife was ill and it was cold I couldn’t wait until Monday to get it repaired forgot to call for the repair they refused my $746 bill I sent a letter to the president to appeal it No reply no comment that was disappointing my faith in them was paying in advance three years great discount but just disappointed they haven’t responded. I have submitted two new claim and they have provided good service so far.

Our heat went out unexpectedly. We filed a claim and they were able to fix the furnace. However, that only lasted 2 weeks. The wait time for the 1st call was fast, within 2days. The 2nd call out with the same issue took about 4-5 days to be repaired, but it's working great now and for the money we saved, it was well worth the little wait we had. Thanks!

I’ve had excellent interactions with the company! I’ve had 6 problems with my home since the 3 rd week in the house. I’ve only been in it since end of December. The service people have been great, especially Dante from Integrity Services for my Plumbing needs. I made a great decision when I chose HWA. It was worth the cost for the year’s coverage. Thanks again 🤗🙏

Disappointed that I didn’t receive my reimbursement check for my dryer until over 30 days later also my mthly rate went up without my knowledge. When I called they said they sent me an email which I could not find . A warranty company is only good when they work. I have had good experiences in the past this was very disappointing. Thank you

Travis And Brooke Epp New York, New York

Having finally dealt with a significant claim (full HVAC replacement), I can see where the money is made by HWA. Paying $925 for a warranty with a $5000 cap on all systems means the money line is always on HWA. A rusted out, leaking coil required a FULL HVAC system replacement, but HWA only approved an internal coil (R-22) replacement, allowing HWA to dodge from having to pay for a whole EPA-compliant (R-454B) system. I was also wholly unaware HWA is allowed to replace brand name, premium, American-made (Lennox / Rheem) components with builder-grade, Chinese components. Entirely unacceptable. Long story short, is we paid $9969 for a brand-new, EPA-compliant Rheem system, and HWA covered $890 ($550 for coil install labor, and $340 for a Chinese builder-grade 9 SEER coil) Before this, I renewed for an additional year of coverage, but I am cancelling my policy as a result of this horrendous experience.

Communication is horrible, and their online platform is useless. Eventually I did get the work done, but boy did I have to do so much heavy lifting. Everything felt like pulling teeth and my experience was that the resp on the phone would tell me anything to get me off the phone and it was always wrong.

For over 10 years HWA has provided me with fast, reliable service and saved me multiple thousands of dollars through replacement and repairs. The phone reps have always treated me professionally and with caring attitudes. As long as I have a house, I will trust HWA for their service.

Just had my water heater blow at 1am. It was terrible. I contacted HWA they got a plumber to my house really quickly, the next day. I was actually surprised. The following day had the install. The only thing that I would criticize is the costs that weren't covered. I'm paying for the diamond plan, everything should be covered. Again, I understand there can be incurred costs but having the premium plan should reduce those costs. Otherwise, I am very happy with the program and their response time. The plumber that was dispatched was incredible. Absolutely outstanding work. Extremely efficient.

I feel like the issue with my oven should have been covered. The issue with the heating element was something completely out of our control. To say that it was not normal wear and tear was absurd. How else would it go out!? It’s located under the metal bottom of the oven. There is nothing that could have been done to make it go out,

I've been with you since I moved into this house 14 or 15 years ago and have always used you and been satisfied with your service. But this time you didn't come through as before. Instead of completely replaceing my microwave your sending me a egift card for 190.00 to replace it. So it's going to cost me at least 5 or 6 hundred more dollars more to find a good microwave and have it installed, which you should have done. First time in all these years I'm no satisfied.

I am very disappointed in the lack of follow up from customer service. Further, the quality of vendors has significantly dropped. It is difficult to get a response from the vendors. The last three vendors did not show up on time and did not give a courtesy call to give an explanation or reschedule. On those 3 instances I waited for over 4 hours each time and when I called they warranty company to follow up I got the run around and was told " to wait a while longer because maybe they were on the way". There seems to be no respect for people's time. I have had this warranty for YEARS and the value for the literally thousands of dollars that I have spent on it, is no longer there. I will not renew this warranty once it is up for renewal this time.

Response time is slower than it should be. It seems contractors are short in my area. Received increased monthly fee without notification. When protest of fee too high it was accommodated down to reflect a reasonable amount, but the increase difference has yet to be refunded therefore, I will need to make another contact. Service has been slow and one call declined because of addiction cost on my part which I could not afford. The reason for the warranty is to avoid unexpected costs when breakdowns occur.

Multiple times, I ended paying over $1,000 for a repair/replacement. I asked for an itemized receipt of the repairs/replacement AC unit and could not get it from Home Warranty of America nor the vendor. Additionally, I was shamed for asking for one. The rep said "You are getting a new unit and I have seen bills for much higher." For another repair, HWA didn't want to pay the cost for the repair but offered a check to purchase the a new appliance which only covered 60% of the cost. I would have preferred a repair rather than the cost being passed on to me.

HWA insurance came with the home. I'm glad it did. The shower regulator was bad. He came in diagnosed it and replaced it no time fast. All for just the service call fee. They were very professional. I'm glad I have this insurance.

I like the fast service and low costs. My brother has had the home warranty for almost 10 years. I myself have only had it for about five months now, but I called them on a couple of occasions and my heat went out when my heat went out. They told me it would cost just the service call $500. Meanwhile, Home Warranty Of America only cost me $85 to get it fixed.

I didn’t chose to work with the company. The seller purchased the warranty for a year. The service call for repair is way too long. I don’t plan to renew the warranty when it expires the end of November 2026. I will shop around for a better service.
