Sale call
June 4, 2020

Petter was veryhelpful. He tried to give me different coupon and asked me to lock in on a long term rate. But I only want to test and find my own experience with your company. Also asure me that definitely you will do repair or replace. The replacement will be a like kind to fit in any built in space in my home.
I am over 55. I think ther3e was some kind of discount he gave me as well. So now I will get 14 months for a toal of 449.99 and plus tax is 464.99 with 75.00 of copay.

Wonderful service!
June 4, 2020

Easy, fast, and not pushy at all! I was about to renew with my former company and luckily came across Select home warranty! It was about $100 cheaper!

Excellent!
June 4, 2020

Stephen was EXCELLENT! Suggested plans, went over coverage and was very patient. He was knowledgable, informative, courteous, professional, and offered discounts available we didn't even know about to get the most coverage for my homes! Very IMPRESSED.
After being a Sears warranty customer for many years, I am happy that I did research and found Select offered a better plan.
Thank you!

Initial contact

Signing up was easy. The man I spoke with quoted me $65 per service call but contract says $75 so that needs clarification but so far so good.

Ease of signing up
June 4, 2020

It was very easy to sign up. The agent was nice and informed to best help and offer discounts. I love that they said I would be able to use my own local bonded and licensed technicians if I chose.

I was very impressed with Jake right from the start! He was very knowledgeable and friendly and had all the answers to my questions. I am usually very skeptical with sales calls but to my surprise he was not pushy and gave me several options to choose from. I already referred him to my family and they are calling him tomorrow to sign up 2 houses! Thanks Jake!

I just signed up for the home warranty and spoke to a gentleman named Bruce. He was very friendly and knowledgeable on the services they offer. He even offered different plans and price points to earn my business not those pushy customer service reps. No I can't wait to update this review to let you if and when I actually have a claim how that went

When we singed up for the warranty that was actually was recommended to us by a friend we spoke to sales rep that basically told us you pay now and everything is covered after except the service fee for them to come out. I understand the contract and all the details are not possible to be discussed but i am in sales myself and always make sure to highlight most important parts of the contract verbally.We were short by 7 days to be fully covered to fix our washer because of 30 day policy after signing up and it was very frustrating.
Also the timing for the claim to be processed and the tech coming and first to check it out and then fixing it took almost 3 weeks. With 3 kids and 3 weeks not be able do the laundry is a lot! There's should be better way to process these quicker.

Competitive Prices

Not only was the quote affordable, the customer service was quick and friendly. I've had other warranty companies and this company beats them in price and customer service.

It was a typical SHW discussion. They were quick to pull up my account and claim information. The claim was denied because they don't cover Freon leaks like other warranty companies.
