The worst company ever. I had issues with my a.c. damper motor and the zone control board. It took 2 hours for Choice to attend my call. Their customer service sucks and once they did they told me that they wouldn't cover.
Man, this is the worst company ever. I've heard there is nice companies out there and am trying to contact them. Choice doesn't even deserve 1 star.
My call was regarding my A/C and I submitted my request on line (much faster, no hold wait time on the phone) it was a Sunday afternoon and I had the automated services calling me back with in the hour and setting me up with the tech. Next day tech came assessed the problem and the repair was accepted and cleared to do the work by Choice Home warranty. Today is the next day and I am waiting for tech to come finish the job. I am very satisfied.
CHW has been a God sent company for me. My air conditioner broke down and they had it fixed the same day. I was very impressed and please with their speed of service and their professionalism. Their followup is also impeccable! I am very please with their high level of service! Thanks.
good job fast service contractor came in a few hours very satisfied
I have had American Home Shield for years and had horrible service. I am sooooooo happy I switched to Choice as my renters were only without the air conditioner for a few hours. The service was perfect and exceeded my expectations for sure!!!!!
Service was in time and well done the first time
6/23/16: Just signed up with choice home warranty by phone. I did not realize and representative never disclosed the information of charging $ 60 service phone fee. I have sent a couple of emails about this issue without any response. I am currently on the phone now (6/24/16). I have been holding on the phone for 49 minutes now. Waiting for a supervisor that will probably never come after talking for a representative who tried to play dumb like that is there policy to charge customers without their knowledge or consent. It has been 52 minutes now still holding. Some customer services. I am giving a zero.
My Choice Home Warranty was effective on 4-7-2016 for $ 448.00. On 5-16-2016 the GE washing machine from 2012 developed a problem with poor water supply, so I filed a claim. The service person came the same day, collected $ 60 service fee, and promised the machine will be repaired by 5-18, he just need a replacement sensor. I have not heard from him, On 5-20 I called Choice, and was promised by 5-26 the part will arrive. Thank the promise dated changed to 5-31, 6-6, 6-16...On 6-20 I called again, was placed on hold 20 minutes than i was transferred several times with holding times 18, 20 then 30 minutes when I hang up. I called in to the sales department the answer was instantiations,... Read More
I used this home warranty service because I saw all the positive reviews on their website. Boy was I surprised! They must've paid these people to post these positive reviews. The first time I called I was having issues with my A/C unit. The customer service representative had a technician come out. However, it was a complete waste of time. Not only did we have to pay the service call fee we wound up paying full price for the repair of unit because Choice Home Warranty determined it to be a "pre-exisiting" condition. The second time I called was for our water heater, long story short, we again paid the service fee and then were told that this too was considered a "pre-existing" condition.... Read More
My dryer went out, and I called the home warranty to get it serviced. Someone was sent to my home to service my dryer, and the dryer was not able to be fixed. The home warranty service paid $300 for a new dryer, and I was able to do laundry immediately. I will definitely use this service for the life of my house. I have received excellent care from them, and I will continue to be a customer!
