Things need to be explained better and sooner to what is actually needed , one example I was told after the job was complete to send in a copy of the receipt only to find out I need an invoice with address .model numbers , serial numbers , a description of work performed . That’s not an easy ask to go back to the contractor multiple times for paper work. Other than that you guys were fantastic to talk to even when I was frustrated and not so courteous

Thanks for the feedback - the model and serial number on the invoice is not required but we do often need that information during the claims process so we can check parts pricing and availability. We will review the calls and train up as needed. Our aim is to make the process easy and quick.

I still don’t have a replacement microwave. Mine still doesn’t work. The ball was dropped and I have nothing to use.

We received a copy of the invoice from Spin Cycle indicating you would be taking the cash out option towards a new microwave. We had paid Spin Cycle the amount allotted for your claim. They also tried to reach you on 7/20 and when they found out you had purchased from another entity, they mailed a check to you on 7/30. If you have not received your check within 7-10 days, please reach out to us or Spin Cycle.

This was our first claim with Home Warranty and it went super smooth. The online portal is a mess to figure out, but they apologized and said to just call each time. The calls were easy and they helped with every step!! So, glad we have this coverage on our home.

Not worth the money.

I thought a warranty was so I wouldn't have any unexpected bills in relation to having just bought a home. This policy does not give that.

Reply from Home Warranty Inc.

While home warranties can help reduce the cost of covered repairs, coverage is subject to the terms, conditions, limitations, and exclusions of the service agreement. We strive to be transparent about coverage and reimbursements, so homeowners understand what is and is not eligible under their plan.

We value your feedback and would welcome the opportunity to assist you further and are committed to providing a better experience moving forward. If there are any additional questions regarding your reimbursement or coverage, please contact our Customer Care team.

It was easy to file and I got my reimbursement back quickly. But I was told by the agent on the phone when I filed the claim that all I had to pay was a $100.00 deductible. But when it came down to it I had to pay over $1,500.00 and was only reimbursed $650.00. I feel that I was very misled.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are glad your claim was easy to file and that your reimbursement was received promptly. However, we understand why you would be disappointed if the repair costs ended up being higher than you expected. The deductible is one part of the claim process, and coverage is based on the diagnosed failure and the terms of the plan. We apologize if that was not clearly explained and appreciate your feedback as we continue to improve the customer experience.

Not a true home warranty company, it’s a reimbursement company

Customer service was great. The process to make claims is not. Having to pay $100 out of pocket for a derive call is boarderline too expensive. The idea of getting reimbursed defeats the main need home owners have for a home warranty. Many of us can’t afford the high costs of replacing a machine, the reimbursement amount didn’t cover the full cost of replacement. Home warranty is not an ideal company to work with. We are not staying.

Thanks for the feedback - where we do have preferred contractors, they bill us directly. However, when offering contractor of choice, many of these ask to be paid at the time of service which necessitates reimbursement to the client - which happens within 4 business days of receiving a completed work invoice.

I’m glad I received something and quickly from this warranty. The process to receive check was very easy. However the entire a/c unit needed replacement but I only received $1000. A/c units cost much much more than that. I spent a few months getting estimates and was fortunate to find an honest installer who allowed the low price of $6500. Still to receive only 1/6th of the total cost is a bit of an insult.

I forgot to contact Home Warranty before I had a new water heater put in. I called them to let them know of my mistake. They went ahead and approved my claim anyway! So thankful they were understanding of my mistake. I won't forget to call them the next time I have a claim!!

Home Warranty That Didn't Help

I am very disappointed with my experience. The claims process was frustrating, communication was poor, and I felt like I had to do all the follow-up myself. Even when I explained the issues, I did not receive the help I expected. I purchased a home warranty for peace of mind, but unfortunately, it did not provide the support I needed. I cannot recommend this company based on my experience.
