We have paid for Home Service Plus for 25+ years. We have used it minimally. Recently we had a range element go out on a Maytag smooth top stove. The technician visited us and discovered he would need to order the part. Total time--maybe 25-30 minutes. He returned four weeks later once the part arrived. The part was obviously broken. Total time--15 minutes. I was informed that the part was no longer available and the stove could not be repaired. Not quite believing this I called back and was informed that "If I could locate ... read more

Another customer that would give one star if I could. Learned my lesson both purchasing HVAC equipment as well as the nightmare of HomeService+. Never again.

I had CPE came out to replaced a water heater and the Anoka city plumber that came out said he is too obese to do the job and I need to find a slimmer plumber. I called Brian in sales and he told me all their plumbers are heavy and I needed to find another plumbing company to do the job.I couldn’t believe what I was hearing and I find it to be the most ridiculous excuse not to perform a job. I would never hire CPE for anything again.

Our water heater failed on Friday March 8,2021. We have the appliance replacement plan through CPE which offered $450 off a new water heater. The following Monday two techs disconnected our old heater and installed a new one, but they had to return on Mar 18 due to lack of all the parts the first time. At the initial visit the contractor quoted us an additional $660 for the replacement. We were quoted about $1,150 total including the $450 discount, but we ended up paying $1,700. We tried getting a breakdown of parts & labor ... read more

IF I COULD LEAVE A ZERO STAR I WOULD :( :( On July 27th I placed a call to the Centerpointe Service Plus regarding my washer leaking water on the side. They stated the next available appt is Weds 8.11.21, I'm okay but disappointed I have to wait almost 2 weeks. Weds came and at 3:50 I called Service Plus and they stated they left a voice mail message stating that that needed to re-schedule my appt for Friday 8.13, operator stated technical difficulties they have been having. I NEVER received a voice mail message stating this... read more

Takes weeks to get an appointment in the Home Service Plus program. Then the best they can do is estimate from 8am to 8pm and then routinely reschedule after you have been waiting all day. The reschedule is usually for the next day from 8am to 8pm! Simply horrible service. I recommend you find another HVAC company and purchase their plan.

This is the third summer that I've had to call CenterPoint regarding my ac unit. Same issue each time which tells me that the tech didn't fix it properly. You shouldn't have to continue recharging the ac unit by adding freon.....there's a leak that need to fix and should have been fixed properly the first time. I pay over $100/month for Home Service Plus and I expect better service. On each previous visit I was given the first dose of freon for free then charged for an additional one. The first available appointment is June ... read more

I pay a significant amount of money each month to Centerpoint for my Home Service Plus. I recently scheduled 2 service repairs for my dishwasher and my gas fireplace. The first appointment for my dishwasher was scheduled on April 19 between 4pm and 8pm. I received an email few days before my appointment to inform me that I had to reschedule, that it was a mistake from schedulers because no appointments for dishwashers are scheduled after 4pm. I already had made arrangements to be at my home in that time frame, in other words... read more
