I purchased a 5 year warranty plan but after seeing all the bad reviews I decided to cancel my policy and get a refund. I was within the 30 free cancelation period so it shouldn't of been a problem. They keeped insisting I keep the policy and keeped ensuring me that they would take care of any needs that might come up after expressing my concern after seeing their reviews and that I don't trust them to cover any claims that might come to but they keeped telling me to keep the policy. After having a long conversation they finally aggred to refund me my money. After waiting a week or so and no refund I called back and they said to keep waiting. Another week passed and the sales guy keeped telling me it woul be 15 business days and I told him it had been passed that time frame so he sent it to his supervisor. The supervisor called me a few days after that last call with the sales guy but I wasn't able to answer the call but he did refund me but only partially. They made me keep a one year policy and I was never able to get a hold of someone. Today the time came to file a claim and they just found ways to denied my claim and they have a complicated policy that basically will nit cover ac units because they say they don't cover electrical problems but an ac unit is basically 85 percent electrical according to the technician there for they will basically never cover an ac unit. They are a scam and basically just take people's money and cover nothing.Business Response

**Beware of Scam: Do Not Purchase Select Home Warranty!**They entice you with a low annual cost and an appealing range of coverage, but be cautious of the additional $75 service fee for every service call, including follow-up visits for the same repair. What they do not disclose is that there is a clause and loophole preventing full coverage; each item has specific conditions for coverage. Initially, they provide you with a document claiming to cover everything, but later you receive a page with fine print listing exclusions and reasons for non-coverage, which are not shared upfront.Additionally, their customer service representatives are contracted from the ***********, and many lack a basic understanding of North American geography. The language barrier can result in misunderstandings, leading to inaccurate documentation of your claimsor none at all. When you attempt to schedule a service appointment, they may confirm a time and location in different states, giving the impression that they are searching for technicians, yet none will show up at your home. This frustrating process can drag on for weeks until you feel compelled to threaten them with contract cancellation and reports to the Better Business Bureau, Consumer Affairs, or legal action. Only then might they manage to find a nearby technician, who could reschedule and later demand cash payment upon arrival.If you seek a refund for their breach of contract and services not rendered, they will charge you a cancellation fee along with a service call fee. Additionally, there is a four-week turnaround before mailing your check, which can take up to eight weeks to receive, if you receive it at allclaiming that someone was dispatched from **********, *******, to service your AC in **********. This company is a massive scam. I strongly advise everyone to stay away from this gimmick.Business Response

First and foremost I was lied to by the salesman **** **** when I signed up for Select Home Warranty. He told me that with my platinum care plan that everything is 100% covered up to $11,000 annually so the only way I would owe anything is if I had multiple big ticket items break down in the same year. I have quickly learned that was a lie and incorrect when I submitted a dryer claim and an ** unit claim very recently. The company said they would only reimburse $200 for the dryer and $0 for the ** unit. I told them that I wanted to cancel my policy and just wanted to receive my prorated refund of my $2,365 as it states in the cancellation policy. I paid in full for 5 years of coverage at the price of $2,365.They then stated in order to keep me as a customer and so I had a good experience with the company that they would make sure they fully reimbursed my newest claim about my broken refrigerator. I was given the extension of 0426 to contact them after I receive the reimbursement amount.Well I received the reimbursement amount and it is $350 and that is definitely no where close to the full amount needed to repair or replace the refrigerator. They did determine the repairs exceeded the value of the unit so I should purchase a new refrigerator unit. I have tried contacting the 0426 extension that I was given multiple times and have left multiple voicemails. They dont answer my calls and they dont return my messages. I called and asked general customer service to message them to call me back and they stated that they did but I have still received no contact.They appear to be purposely ignoring me and trying not to honor what they promised. My experience with them has been so awful that this isnt surprising me. However, I do expect them to honor my refrigerator claim and them to reimburse much more than $350.Business Response

Better Business Bureau:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********.They increased the refrigerator reimbursement from $350 to the full $500 that was originally promised. I have not received the $200 check for the dryer or the $500 check for the refrigerator yet though which is very concerning. So if those arent received then a status change to rejected would need to be made or a new complaint filed. Honestly, its very concerning that it took a complaint to get what was right versus their customer service solving the issue.

I filed a claim with select home warranty on June 22, 2025. Regarding my refrigerator and freezer not cooling.. a technician came out on Wednesday June 25, 2025 at 3:30 PM. The technician diagnosed the refrigerator said that there was a leak of Freon somewhere within the refrigerator and that the repair would be expensive to try to find the Freon leak.Two days passed by. I did not hear from select home warranty. I called them to find out the status of the report and they stated that the technician never called them to report the diagnosis of the refrigerator.. they sent a message for the report four days later I got diagnosis and they said they were not able to repair the refrigerator due to a system issue.. select HOME #Warranty deceived customers. They tell them that their appliances are covered. They dont say specifically of the specifics of certain things not being covered. They tell customers everything related to appliances are covered under the warranty.I wanted to cancel with them and they told me the payment that I made three days ago would cancel the policy and it would not be an effect even though I prepaid my money to July 29. They would also charge me a $50 cancellation fee.. since they were deceitful and providing correct information related to my product for the second time that I placed a claim with them I wanted to cancel. They did not inform me that I couldnt cancel due to anniversary date in November that why the $50 was being charged. They tired to make a deal in for me not to cancel.. They dont completely inform consumers about their policies. They try to deceive customers by offering deals to stay with them and not disclosing all of the information for cancellation. Select Home Warranty is ripping off customers.Business Response

On March 26, I called to learn more about select home warranty. The gentleman was very kind and said that they were the number one rated in the Warranty business. I live in an old house, but I have always had a home warranty and my current one was not meeting my needs. He gave me a price of $40 a month with a $70 fee per claim.On May 27, I called to make a claim about my dishwasher. I was told in the beginning that it needed to be a 30 day wait period so I was well within that weight. Period. Or so it seemed. I was asked by a person who could not speak or understand English very well what was wrong with my dishwasher which I found odd because I had no idea what was wrong with it as it just stopped cleaning. She asked how long ago and I said maybe a day or so. I wasnt sure it just seemed like it had quit cleaning very well. I didnt think anything of it. They sent someone out in about four days to look at it. I paid them $70 and then I was told after four more days that they denied my claim because it was a pre-existing condition. After much discussion and five hours of phone conversations, I asked if I could cancel since it was a month two month agreement. I was told I could cancel in one year from the date I started, but if I wanted to cancel, it was a $75 payment. I didnt understand this because I was never entered into an agreement, but I was told to keep checking my contract. It was as if they were deliberately misleading me at every turn. So I didnt complain anymore as I was too exhausted. They said that they would give me a discounted rate of $34 per month and a $70 fee credit for the next claim. So last week on Saturday, I made a claim. They said they would credit me so I didnt need to pay the $70 over the phone. Its a good thing I didnt pay because Im still waiting for a phone call to fix my air conditioner. I have an 80-year-old mother living with me. I cant live like this. This company is a scam!!!Business Response

On 6/30/2025 I cancelled my policy with this company after having paid them for two years. I bought the policy to prepare for an ac unit that was aged. They sent their tech out last year to fix it and didnt mention anything about the potential to not cover the unit. This year it went out again and they sent an agent out and then said they wont honor the contract due to it being a Freon issue. Never do business with this organization.Business Response

This company states on their website that they have a 3 step process to file a claim. I make the claim, they call and set up the repair appointment, then I pay the co-pay when the repair person comes out. The have refused to set up the appointment to have the repair evaluated on multiple occasions. I gave them a phone number to call since they said they could find no one, and they did not call. They told me to set it up myself. This is not how it was supposed to work, and I said no. I am asking for a full refund of the money I paid for the service they did not provide. They want to pro-rate it and bill me to cancel. I feel they are in breach of the contract not me.Business Response
