GBPoor and unethical claim service We have the "Comprehensive Plan" home warranty policy with The Home Service Club / Choice Home Warranty. Had to replace our washing machine which was covered by the policy. Company agreed to pay the claim and that they would send us a check. We needed a new machine so went out immediately and bought one figuring we'd apply the claim settlement once we received the check. Check never came and instead we got an email a couple weeks later with an attached electronic gift card to Lowe's. We contacted Home Service Company (HSC) and they acknowledged it was their mistake that they didn't issue a check but that there was nothing they could do to change it. We them went to Lowe's but they would not accept the gift card as payment to our credit balance. After 4 or 5 more calls to HSC we continued to get the run around from every claim person we talked to and all of them refused to let us talk to a supervisor or manager and even suggested they don't have access to the address or phone numbers of their corporate offices. Horrible, horrible service! So now I'm stuck having to go buy something else from Lowe's if I want to be reimbursed for our claim. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!

GBIt's a scam, don't buy They are con artists that will do everything in their power to not cover anything listed in your contract. Not to mention it takes them weeks to assign a technician to your home, their reimbursement option doesn't make sense, and their policies yield no results other than making you pay full price with no coverage.

GBLEAKING WATER HEATER I called HSC regarding a leaking hot water heater. No plumbers responded to HSC’s network so I hired a plumber who reported to the claim department that the water heater was leaking and needed replacing. Water heaters die due to leaking after a period of time, but the claim was denied due to RUST AND CORROSION. Remember that term. It’s buried in the contract you sign, but don’t see until after signing up. The important coverage details are purposely left out on the home web page. DON’T BUY A CONTRACT WITH THIS COMPANY!

GBThey underwrite Choice Home Warrant in… They underwrite Choice Home Warranty in California. Both Home Service Club and Choice are scams. I requested service for covered item. They did not find a provider and emailed that I could find one and that they would reimburse minuse the service fee. Lies,scam, and thief's. Thr provider provided some info saying he did not work for these crooks. Claim denied within 5 minutes. Of course appeal was no better. In California Choice is licensed by Home Service Club. Scammers——-Do Not Buy ——- This will be referred to Attorney General's office in California. See Arizona Class Action Suit against Choice. Scammers and bullies. I will not tolerate this manipulation. I paid 875.00 for the service and 1700 for a multi year plan for nothing. What’s up Home Service Club and Choice Home warranty??? Business model- Promise a lot, and deny coverage as much as possible. Truly reprehensible!

GBSave your money Terrible company. It has been 2 months and I still can't get my faucet fixed. Plumber comes and collect his service fee (literally a 5 min visit to take some pictures) and then will not return to complete the job as he says HSC will not agree to the submitted estimate. Who is at fault the plumber or the warranty company? Neither will take responsibility and leaves me the customer without a working faucet. Supposedly they will give a pro-rated refund if a contract is cancelled. I do not put much hope they will follow through on that promise. The only thing HSC is good at is sales and marketing.
