" Scam! Scam! Scam! I believe this company is the worst home warranty provider in the USA. They were having a promotion and of course I took the bait and it became one of the worst decisions I've made. This company deserves zero stars but I had to choose one to make this post. Please note that any positive reviews you see on them are from those who have not filed a claim. It has been 6 months and I'm still waiting for my cash in lieu check and now my home warranty has expired. Of course I did not renew and that is why I'm still waiting. I call every week for an update and I keep getting a runaround with responses like my check is in the mail and it never comes. And responses like they will call me back and they never do. This company is really the worst. Beware! "

"when the repairman came out we explain that previous retirement and replace a thermostat twice but the problem persisted. I showed him pictures of how a pizza was being burned in the oven when cooked at the correct temperature for the correct amount of time. he tested the other looked at the pictures and said that the oven cannot be repaired and they would let the warranty company know that.

"The person performing the service had to make several trips because one of the "new" parts turned out to be faulty. I found both Complete Protection and their local repair contractor to be both very responsive and totally professional at every stage of the repair process."

"My experience with this company has been HORRIBLE! I have a older electric clothes dryer that was displaying multiple issues, but still functional. My previous and awesome repair company was not able to service the dryer due to a move, so I called Trustworthy Appliance Service after checking Angie's List. I was first interested in a diagnosis to determine if the repair was worth it (versus replacement) and listed the numerous symptoms for the technician, including a hot-smelling motor when running. He immediately, WITHOUT LOOKING AT OR TURNING ON OR TOUCHING the dryer, made a diagnosis as a blower fan, gave me a quote for what he assured would resolve all issues, and completed the repair. Within a few days, the dryer quit working completely - it would not turn. I called the company, and the owner consented to a refund once the technician came and checked to make sure it wasn't just a "loose wire" as I would not have consented to spending more that already paid on a repair, had it been diagnosed correctly in the first place. Meanwhile I am without a dryer and must use the laundromat. Upon the second visit, the technician said it was a broken belt (totally consistent with the original hot motor symptom!!) and so I called to confirm refund needed after declining a free belt. I received no call back from the company after three days and had to call back (Geraldine originally said she would need to contact the owner the following day to pass along paper work to get final authorization from the owner for the refund and she would call back to process). The owner then tried to argue that the technician could have fixed for free the undiagnosed belt issue and acted as if he did not have the details of the case even though he had authorized the refund contingent upon a re-check by the technician (Jimmy) several days prior via Geraldine (office staff). Finally after frustration and argument, the refund was authorized and I will NEVER call this company again!"

Many benefits come with buying a home warranty when selling your home, but there are drawbacks to consider, too.
Pros
Peace of mind of home repair coverage
Incentive for buyers
Transferability to new owners
Prevent post-sale issues
Cons
Expensive cost
Exclusions of certain features or appliances
Coverage limits
Often difficult to understand
Potential wait for claim service
On average, a home warranty costs about $1,100, ranging from $80 to $8,300, depending on your home size and its features, type of home warranty plan, and the coverage included. Your home’s location also factors into the cost of a home warranty, with areas with a higher cost of living experiencing increased warranty costs. Additional cost to consider include:
Deductibles: $75–$125 per call
Add-ons: $2–$35 per month
Premiums: $200–$1,200 per year
Several factors make a home warranty worth it or not, especially the age of your home and the condition and age of the appliances in it. If you buy an older home with most or all original appliances, a warranty may be worth the investment as these home features are more likely to need repairs or replacements. However, if you’re buying a new-construction home, a warranty may already be included, and you may not need to use it for several years. In this case, purchasing add-ons may not be worth the cost until a few years later.
Offering a home warranty when selling can make your property more appealing to potential buyers. The warranty gives them peace of mind that many systems or appliances will be covered if they need to be repaired or replaced in the near future. Additionally, the home warranty may cover problems that arise during the home sale, such as a leaky roof or water in the basement.
The main types of home warranties cover the basic essentials, but additional plan types focus on specific areas such as:
Appliance plan: This plan covers typical household appliances like refrigerators, stoves, washer and dryer, built-in microwaves, and dishwashers. It costs $360 and $540 per year.
System plan: Costing between $360 and $540 per year, this plan covers central home systems like HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and water heaters.
Combination plan: This plan type covers both systems and appliances, costing between $545 and $1,500.
