New home warranty is a scam!

Good luck getting anything covered under warranty. Their brochure indicates from the day your claim is submitted, everything will be evaluated and completed within 60 days! Wow! Awesome! It has now been over 6 months, and I have to constantly call to find out what is going on. Btw, basically nothing is covered under warranty. So to those of you that have pacific home warranty, good luck. To those shopping around, look elsewhere.

P. S. My floors are sinking, my siding and trim are falling apart, cracks in interior walls, electrical problems and the list goes on...

Pacific Home Warranty and Echelon lied to me just to avoid to repair the damages under the coverage. My house is overloaded but both Pacific and Echelon hided the electrical report. They allowed the builder to install heaters in my house even they knew the house is overloaded. I sue them in the court now, and like to share information if anybody has interesting in it.

You have to submit a letter in writing for a warranty claim. If denied it can be disputed. Request a manager. Search for the online and guess the email. It’s easy. Persistence is key. Quote your claim items directly from the construction performance guideline for housing online. Request copies of technical assessments. If not resolved it can be escalated to ombudsman.

Hub International owns Avia, Echelon, Pacific and Progressive Home Warranty and many others in this racket.
If you read the PHW insurance paperwork you will see that PHW client is the builder of your home, you are not the one who hired PHW and you are not being protected from anything. We now know that part of the claim denial process is: Home owner files a claim, PHW alerts the builder and asks for an opinion on the merits of the claim. The builder obviously denies any fault and then PHW reports back to you that you claim is not accepted for a variety of really cleaver reasons.
I have started a GoFundMe in order to gather enough money to initiate a class action against this insidious scam. I intend to build a list of as many abused new home buyers, beginning with B.C. then do some advertising to get publics support for a political change across Canada. There are thousands of us added each and every year to the unbelievable list of Hub victims of this preposterous scheme purporting to be insurance for the home owner. Hopefully some of the people who have been victimized by this scheme will read this and spread the word about my GoFundMe campaign.

After four years of a losing battle with PHW/Hub insurance we are now faced with a mandate from the Strata Property Act that forces us to pay to have all the denied claims repaired at our own expense, Perfect!
In 2005 Anne Drewa (Global National) did a story on this rip off. Hub/PHW all agreed that they must look in to this problem and make improvements to help home owners. The new improvements include not doing any more interviews and training their telephone/email help line people in the latest baffle gab and delay tactics.
After two years of trying to meet with PHW to do a review/mediation of our denied claims they no longer try to bully us in to submission, they have cut off all communications with us and our property management company. WOW! these guys are really comfortable with themselves and their ability to dismiss whole strata corporations and private home owners. Our next effort is starting a GoFundMe project in the hope of getting enough abused home buyers to participate in order to collect enough funds for a class action law suit and get some media coverage. individually it has be demonstrated that I will never win, the real power for political change rests with the collective approach.

You, I and all the thousands of other honest new home buyers across Canada are all facing the same incredible denial rating from PHW. Hub Insurance is the owner of Echelon, Avia, Pacific Home Warranty and Progressive Home Warranty and the head office for many others in this racket. The numbers of people caught up in this scheme is staggering but Hub is so rich and powerful and has a well financed lobbyist so as individuals we have little recourse except to complain to deaf political ears. We bought in to a town house development built by Pivot Construction in 2015 in Langley B.C. and have had every last defect and deficiency claim denied by PHW to this date, March 2019. The most significant reason for the incredibly efficient scheme is that Hub/PHW were hired by Pivot Construction, the builder of this fiasco is PHW client and they are protecting him form us. This is the same across Canada and our government is fully behind it and continues to approve this scheme to this day. Why? you might ask? Well it is the same ancient answer. The people are being treated to the TRUMP method of doing business, don't take my word for it, follow the money!

I also have been experiencing the exact same meat grinding process as everyone else here. We have multiple issues and thousands of dollars worth of defect repairs that need to be done and we can't even get past the denial of blatant defects that are stated in the BC Building code. Apparently having qualified experts and their own assessor doesn't stop them from denying the evidence. I am exploring all options and getting all my ducks in a row for the next steps.

I will be in Supreme Court in 2019 against "Echelon" or Pacific Home Warranty. The best thing you can do, is contact "The Insurance Council of BC" and lodge a formal written complaint, via "FAX" ( they don't accept emails ) You will be complaining about Pacific Warranty. They are a broker and governed by The Insurance Council. I have an open complaint with them currently. They have contacted me, I will be sending them my judgement after my court date. The council has advised me there will be disciplinary action at that time if I have a judgement "for". I hope they will have their license pulled.

Hi Leroy! Thank you... I will win, I have a strong case and an excellent Lawyer, the problem being is that I have to sue Echelon, and not Pacific Home Warranty..so the best thing anyone can do is to lodge a formal complaint with The Insurance council of BC that way PHW will be investigated and have their license pulled and will be out of business for ever! That is the most helpful thing anyone can do right now, going forward. We want to protect any one else that has to go through this horrible process. Thank you!

I agreed with all the complains. I have bad experienced with Pacific Home Warranty. They are on the builder's side. They hired a Technician Assessment to check all the defects from my brand new house. At that time, the Technician agreed with our complains, he said "yes, it should be", "yes this and that", but turned around, after talking with he builder, he wrote the report differently. They denied most of my claims. The only one left they need to ask the builder to fix because we have photo, video that showed the problem. However, after the builder fixed the defect issue, we hired a professional one to double check the work. Our professional one said it is not right, the builder need to do it again. Pacific Home Warranty did not even physical check the work done, they just looked at the photo was provided from the builder and said it is okay to them. They refused to listen to us and our professional license one to explain about the issue. They just want to protect the builder and close the case quickly. It seems that we have to beg them to fix the defect issues. So why we have to buy the home warranty from them. BUYER ! DO NOT BUY HOME WARRANTY FROM PACIFIC HOME WARRANTY.

Agree I been fighting with pacific since summer 2017 and they never call back or care. They offered arbitration but said they are bringing the builder who won't even respond to their lawyer. The same builder that still controls the strata and the maintenance of the common structure that has been proven to be full of code violations leading to the leaking and failures of the structure. The same builder that they want to submit a claim as the current manager of the Strata but refuses to respond.

We have 2 claims with our builder threw Pacific Warranty. I agree 100 percent . First Pacific played me for 2 months saying our warranty was not registered. They had to wait for the builder to fill out the paper work. After i contacted the HPO to get more info i called Pacific more informed . after over 30 calls so many emails it is crazy. We got a claim in 4 months later.
Same game Pacific works for the builder games over and over np repairs. And the time frames passed when work was to be done. Then warrantable claim was sent and the builder has more time for the repairs. More games. Hundreds of calls emails. No returned emails or calls.
Finally contacted John and got some progress.
Still getting repairs now all thanks to getting John involved.
After over 600 photos videos they still decline items. Do not worry your floor will collapse well before you will get anything from your builder with Pacific. They are a scam and lay the screws to everyone day in day out.

Worst service ever! We have been getting the run around on a BRAND NEW built home. Dual realtors involved in this. The builder is the seller and lives on the same street as the house we bought. He walks around with a chip on his shoulder and no care in the world. Pacific Home Warranty do not communicate but keep giving my poor retired parents to add the run around and now stating that these defects are not covered. They are hiding the builder and not holding him accountable. The gas stove does not work we had to call in Fortis as after the carbon monoxide detector went off. We could have DIED if we didn't have that but still no remorse for human life! Fortis gave us in writing that the stove installed by the BUILDER is not usable and needs to be replaced. And still nothing. The concrete stairs going to the main entrance sway but this is not considered a hazard according to Pacific Home Warranty. As long as the builder/seller/realtor and warranty people are paid, we don't matter after paying a million dollars for a new home! I agree we should all go to Global with this, this company needs to be called out for their lack on concern and so do these multi million dollar builders!

Keep records of everything you do . Phone calls to the company all letters . This home warranty is a big scam they make it so frustrating and nothing gets done. They have had stories on the news about new homes and all the problems people have with bad builders. They showed couples going to the builder than to the warranty company and it went back and forth with little success . We took the builder to small claims court. We did get some money back so we could repair our house. My mistake was I should of also put the Home warranty also on the claim when I went to small court. You have to fight and don't give up because that is what they want you to do. Good luck Franca

Have similar issues with realtor cum builder Paul Bal group. Apparently he is the representative of this builder - a numbered company 0749813 BC Ltd. Despite a clause in the purchase contract to fix deficiencies within 10 days, it has been 9 months still procrastinating nor willing to release the negligible hold back amount. Regarding claims to Pacific Home Warranty, when called we never get the same person who know our case facts and their system is not updated with submissions owner make and mostly deny receiving documents or claims submitted at least till 2-3 times follow up. Usual response I get is waiting for builder to respond, and I wanted to let Pacific warranty know, because the builder does not respond to the home owner, he is forced to make a home warranty claim. There is no respect to time limits or a definition for "reasonable time" When I take up with warranty company, the builder is getting even more upset and now threatens legal action on me for defaming. I do not know if going through Small claim would speed up this as I am living in the house going through the mess in fear. - Roger

These people are absolute crooks. Out of the four claims we have made for problems that have developed AFTER moving in (the builder and his tradespeople were basically crap) we have managed to get some small things done but have waited almost a year for the larger stuff. We are in the process of getting our ducks lined up and will be suing them shortly. My advice to anyone who has to deal with them is firstly, do not bother being overly nice with them - it doesn't work for any claim of any consequence and they will keep you hanging forever. They have these great-sounding policies which they do not follow at all. Call them on their so-called deadlines in writing. Secondly, and most importantly, keep records of everything - every phone call not returned, every email not answered, every lie they tell (in writing), every time they send the builder to try Mickey Mouse fixes, take lots of videos, photos, etc. Get copies of inspections done by their "independent" assessors (you'll have to nag and nag for these). Thirdly, don't give up! That's exactly what they want you to do.

I am going through the same thing with Pacific Home Warranty. I submitted my claim in December of 2015 and it was supposed to be completed in Feb 2016. That date has come and gone. I have been calling every week to get an update and they keep telling me the same thing - "Your claim is under review and should be completed next week". This has been going on for the last month and half with no definitive timeline. Very frustrating considering they probably won't cover half the stuff on my claim after seeing all the comments on here!

Yes. In short we have had a recent experience. Nothing from what I have read on this board has changed. I would not recommend buying a home insured by Pacific Home Warranty. There is a definite conflict and they definitely represent the builder. It's a conflict of interest allowing a horrible contractor to choose a horrible insurance company. They will find every reason to reject every item on you list. Expect months if not years getting a resolution that nothing on your list is covered. Good luck.

We're experiencing the same issues with Pacific Home Warranty. It's been four months since a claim has been submitted and two months since a technical assessment was done. The builders were provided with a letter and deadline which passed a month ago but home warranty decided to extend this deadline without notifying us. We've called multiple times and there is not resolution. PHW keeps saying we'll get notification of what is covered in the mail next week and it's been weeks.
Is there a class action lawsuit against this company?

I agree with Kramstad, you have to keep on the Pac Home Warranty Rep, ask to see a copy of the technical report, in my case even the report stated it should be fixed the warranty company denied it. you have to be extremely persistent, keep in mind that Pacific Home Warranty is only the administrator, Echelon or Hub may be the underwriter so that is another option. Final point is yes absolutely the system is flawed, the builder is the customer not the home owner, the Warranty company is only interested in selling more policies and they do this by keeping the builder happy. You have to call, email and make a claim, report the builder to the BBB, take them to small claims court, it's only $160 to make a claim and your time, it's well worth it!

If I could go on forever I would. To make it short (haha) I fought with Pacific Home Warranty for a year and half, phone calls, e-mails, more phone calls, more e-mails. I was persistent. I am in the construction industry and have a vast knowledge of construction. I did not put up with their crap and or bull@#$&
Mike Garrity? The silent president whom I copied every e-mail to? DID YOU EVER ANSWER ME? NO.

DID YOU GET A GOOD PAYOUT WHEN YOUR COMPANY WAS BOUTH OUT BY HUB INTERNATIONAL?

I finally got resolution to my house issues. It was tough, but the greasy wheel gets the grease folks. Hound, shadow, call/e-mail every day, do not let up the pursuit to have your home exactly the way you want it to be.
Make a complete list before you let the builder leave your "walk through", make the sign it. Take the time to go over every square inch of your home, bring in friends of yours that are in the construction field with you, carpenters, electricians, plumbers.If you are spending and making payments from your life savings protect yourselves from this company.
You need to ask yourself a question, If I buy this home, will I be protected by any home warranty company? The answer is simple...Probably not.

Has anyone here considered the fact that, in my case anyway, that the builder arranged the warranty for the house? In other words, the builder selects the warranty provider and in doing so becomes " a customer" of that provider. If I'm in the business of selling insurance, I would make sure that I'm making my customers happy.
I think this system is flawed in this way as I had no say in selecting the provider.
Would love to hear thoughts on this.

We dealt with Pacific Warranty when we were alerted by our tenant that the floor in the suite had a huge hump in it by the outer wall. The hump had pushed up so high that it was starting to crack the tiles in the entryway. We live in the Okanagan and the winter was very cold with lots of ice and we wondered if ice or ? was pushing the floor up underneath the concrete slab. By the time the company sent out someone the hump had subsided but not before cracking all the tiles in a line by the front door. The guy who came was very good and said he had seen something like this before and said that they might need to see under the concrete slab by using a camera or something like that, to see if water/ice was present. As we waited and waited for further action (ie someone to actually look further into the problem) we received a letter from the insurance company denying our claim saying it was not a structural defect. The tile setter did not apply an anti-fracture membrane they said. We tired to explain that the hump came first and gradually caused the tiles to crack but we got no response. Pacific Warranty is a joke and should not be selling insurance.

My realtor is now telling everyone she knows about Pacific Warranty and how they operate. She has posted a warning bulletin to her board at the real estate office. The Realtors are getting together, and finding out who the warranty company is on the house their purchasers want to buy. If it is Pacific Home Warranty, they WILL NOT sell them that house. The realtors are in fact hunting down the "good" builders because they refuse to sell their buyers the "crappy builders houses with the crappy/scam of a warranty company" on as the warranty company. They are having their buyers purchase a lot, and sending them to the "GOOD REPUTIBLE BUILDERS" ! My realtor received phone calls daily about what has happened to me, "having" to deal with this warranty company, and she warns them all. I am currently up to approx. 70, 000 worth of damage to my house, inc. water, mould, leaking roof..and they have fixed NOTHING!

John Mulcahy is also in cahoots with Pacific..he will call you showing sympathy, he bated me, telling me they would fix and item, then he found out I am suing Pacific Warranty, and how much damage I have and I haven't heard from him since! I've heard from THEIR lawyer though...strange, and all I did was buy a house? So..do NOT TRUST John Mulcahy either, he is just feeling you out to see where you stand.

I completely agree with everything regarding PHW and it's my opinion that they only insure builders such as Alyza Homes (Karim Fazal) in Vancouver that don't want to fix any deficiencies. I would advise anyone thinking of buying a home built by them or covered by PHW to stay away! No problems will ever get fixed and you'll get the run around. Just my two cents...

I have also had a poor experience with Pacific. Basically they said the problem I have is not covered, and even if it was, the coverage had expired by the time I submitted a claim. The problem had existed since new, but the building said he was looking into how to fix it. Basically the builder delayed to beyond the point that the insurance would cover it. Stay away from this company, either way.
