The Thanksgiving sales were going on so I bought a new thermostat for my home and I called American Home Shield to send someone to replace my thermostat. But the guy who came didn’t know what the issue was. First, he said, they don't change the thermostat. I said that I just called to change the thermostat and I don't have any issue with my heating system. I bought the Google Nest and he said that they don't do or don't know Google Nest. Even I didn't know how to set this up. But he helped me anyway. It was a small thing to change the thermostat but it was a good experience. I’m planning next year to order the duct cleaning through American Home Shield as well as my plumbing stuff and changing my faucets so I can get a better rate.

I like the service. The part that I don't like is they will fix something but if something breaks after their contractor fixes it, American Home Shield doesn't take the responsibility of it. I had three refrigerators that I needed fixed. They had four different companies that came to my house to fix it. None of them knew how to fix one of the refrigerators. I had to take it back, and American Home Shield gave me money for it. That was good. But the problem was, when they connected the water hose to my refrigerator, that thing leaked and it flooded my whole kitchen and living room.
I told American Home Shield that the hose was broken. They needed to come out and fix it because they never fixed it right. They kept saying, “We’ll send that guy back.” But they waited 30 days. After 30 days, they said that they cannot send nobody back because it had been 30 days. They told me that they were gonna call me back and let me know what was going to happen. The way they sounded, they were gonna fix it. I waited two weeks. They did not call me back. In the meantime, my house was going bad. My floor swelled up. After a few weeks when I called back, they said they will not fix those. Because of that, I had to call my insurance company.

I had a claim with AHS for a bad sensor and a porch light. The tech came really quickly. We thought it might have been the switch. Changed out my light switch. Went through it and found out that I had a bad day night sensor and the light. Bypassed that and fixed it. That was the third time the tech's been here. He's a great guy. He's dependable and informative. AHS has a quick response time. They also find good people.

American Home Shield has been great so far, and I would definitely recommend it for anyone. I've done three claims, and the website was easy to use. The repair people are professional too. They were really good at their job, and they did the job quickly. My toilet was leaking recently, but it wasn't an internal plumbing problem with the drainage of it. It was the tank. The plumber tightened a few things and it fixed it.

My microwave went out and American Home Shield sent out a service provider to look at it. The tech said it was probably a couple of fuses and he scheduled another appointment to come out and fixed the issue. Once the repair was done though, it wasn’t explained if I would have to pay another deductible if the microwave goes out. I had to ask a lot of questions after they said a service person would be assigned to me as far as next step. The automated diagnostics check via the phone was very complicated. It didn't work. When I spoke to a live person, I was told to download an app. There was no way to put speaker on so it was hard speaking to that person and all the diagnostics that they asked me to do had already been done prior to the call, which I explained. She couldn't hear what I was doing and the pictures weren't clear.

I called American Home Shield for the dryer that wouldn't come on. Sears came out and fixed it. It took a little while but that one was okay. The one I had problems with was my icemaker. A plumber came out, and he supposedly found an ice cube stuck in the wheel that turned around which stopped it from turning. That was the first false alarm. It still didn't work. American Home Shield sent Sears. They came out and replaced the whole icemaker. It still didn't work. American Home Shield was supposed to send another person to fix it. But it was past the 30 days so they told me I'd have to pay the $100 again. I'm not very happy with American Home Shield. I'm thinking of switching right now to another company.

For my claim with AHS, the dryer was stopping and going. Every once in a while it would hit again and work. But this time, it was pretty much dead when I called AHS. The tech came over. He wanted to take his shoes off. I told him not to bother. I left him in the room and went about doing something else. He called me and that was when he said it was not the dryer. It was where you plug it in. Something to do with the electric thing. What impressed me was when I called AHS back to say, "It wasn't that. It was the electric thing unit that it was plugged into," they didn't charge me to have that electrician come out and fix it. That blew me away. I'm very happy with AHS.

We've used American Home Shield a lot. We like that we just call them and they schedule somebody to check out what's the problem. They've replaced two faucets for us. We've had some issues with our appliances and we've had really good experience down there with the people they send out. We've been lucky with the AHS down in Port Aransas. We like them and I'm getting ready to renew it.
The faucet was loose in the bathtub in the front bathroom and in our master bath, the handle of the faucets in the garden tub was stripped. Then, one of the faucets in the master was frozen and it leaked a little. ASAP Plumbing came out and had to order the parts, and came back out. We had to figure out when we didn't have renters in there for them to come out. We're in low season now so they were out recently to finish that and did a great job. The timing was great. The techs came when they said they were going to. We set up a time and they said between 9:00 and 11:00, and they called as they were heading our way. We spoke to the people and visited with them, and they were good.
We had to re-call and it was past the 30 days. They said on our plumbing, but then when they went back and looked at the time that it was actually ordered, the part was ordered, we were within our time. So, they didn't charge me for them to come back out, which is good too. I had another problem with my dishwasher in that they came out because I couldn't read my panel. So, the techs came out and replaced it. Then, about 20 days later, my daughter was down there and she said the door just slammed open. So, I called and they sent the guy back out. The guy was fixing my door and he said he saw something that was sticking and he cleaned it out. The spring sprung on that. So, it wouldn't be the stuff that I called about, but the guy came back out and fixed it and it's working great.

The service of AHS has been great. Two of our burners were not working on the stove recently. I called AHS and it was easy to submit a claim. The claims rep was great. They emailed and sent me a text message with the contractor’s information. The tech that came out talked us through exactly what he was doing. He was very knowledgeable and his customer service was very good.

I love American Home Shield. I would never leave them. They're the best company. I recommended them to some of my co-workers that got their house. I'm very satisfied to be with a reliable company that will take care of all my needs. When one company would say they couldn't come, they would send another technician. Recently, my furnace was shutting off and on. The contractor had to put in a motor. They were trying real hard. They were so professional. The only thing American Home Shield made an error was when they took another 125 out. But they refunded it back.

My boiler was leaking gas two separate times. During the first one, the pilot wouldn't come on. The gentleman from Union Express came out and put a thermocouple in there. The next time, my husband went down the basement and he smelled gas. They call it a back up, and then we called PGW. They came over and verified it, and we had to call American Home Shield. The tech came out two days ago and did another thing because it was leaking gas again. So that's two leaks on there PGW's been out. The boiler is completed now unless we smell more gas.

The fan was not working in my living room area. Techs tried to fix the remote on the wall but could not fix the remote on the wall unit. They attempted to replace it but I was told that that model remote is no longer used. So they fixed it by putting it up and leaving me a remote control to the fan that I use to control the fan at night. Give American Home Shield some consideration. But be sure of what you looking for them to provide. There are certain limitations that'll come into play that you may not see when you first review the plan. But once you have a claim, they come up. For example, I didn't know that they only pay $10 towards Freon. Freon cost over $100. That is a very big disappointment.

The water line main switch was leaking inside the wall and water was building up. It was a very slow leak that eventually started seeping through the wall and created some mold and some water damage. When I put the claim in, AHS put me in contact with an expert plumber and he came out and assessed that it was more than just a plumbing situation. It's also going to be some mold treatment and repairs to the wall. The contractor was knowledgeable, courteous, and prompt. They came by the same day after contacting me. They were really great to work with.

The American Home Shield policy that I had for our property in New Jersey was great. But using the policy out here in Nevada sucks. We had a claim for the hot water heater and the plumber that came didn't even look at it. He just opened up the door, took a picture, and said, “Okay,” and hit up his friend as soon as he hit the car. He told his friend that we had a flood and for him to give us a call. The plumber tried hooking his buddy up for business, which was very unprofessional. As soon as he walked away, the remittance guy was calling us. He said he works with American Home Shield.
The plumber also wrote a report even though he didn't even look at anything. Our claim got declined because it was a pre-existing condition. But a used house is already a pre-existing condition. Why offer a home warranty if you're not going to cover their pre-existing problem? We've had American Home Shield for over five years. Luckily, we haven't really used it for big ticket items like our air conditioner, which is what we got the home warranty for initially.
My husband said to the rep, “Anything that has water running through it, you're not going to cover because it's a pre-existing condition.” The guy responded, “Yup.” We had this escalated and to an extreme. My husband wrote to three different people. He had to fight and say, “Home warranties are supposed to cover pre-existing conditions. That's what they're for.” I'm very dissatisfied and we're looking around. I feel bad because we had a claim for our refrigerator due to the compressor going out and the guys who did that were great. They were professional and courteous. We had to wait for a part but they were very communicative with it. Love them.
Are you still in need of assistance?

My freezer and refrigerator had broken down. I submitted a claim online with AHS and then PJ Appliance called me. It was great. However, it's an up-and-down experience with American Home Shield.

I called American Home Shield and their rep took care of my concern. It was for the belt to the dryer. The gentleman that came by was fantastic. I really liked him. He did his job and was really clean, nice, neat, and very respected. I highly recommend his company. As far as AHS, for what I spend paying their insurance, I have to come out of pocket. So, I'm losing money and I'm not impressed with them. I’m not gonna have them as insurance anymore. I started noticing that every time I called, I had to dish out another 100 and something dollars. I think I'm wasting more money in having the insurance policy, plus having someone come out here and charge me. I wouldn't recommend them at all.

We've had four work orders in the last month with AHS. One of them is still being worked on. Three of them have been completed. They really came through on our refrigerator. It was a weekend when the refrigerator went out. When I talked Monday morning to the company that was assigned, it was clear that they were scrambling, had someone ill, and couldn't even tell me for sure if they could get some of them on Wednesday. By this time, I had to throw everything out in our refrigerator.
They suggested I call American Home Shield, which I hate to do because nothing ever gets done and I'm always on hold for an hour, and then they hang up 'cause I'm not allowed to be on hold for an hour. But I tried. I was able to get ahold of someone within 10 minutes and that person kept me on the line while they arranged another place to come out Tuesday morning, which was really great. That person ended up calling us Monday evening and asked if we were going to be around, and came and fixed it on Monday evening.
But we have not had good experiences a lot of the time. We went an entire July with no AC in Texas. The dryer took a month to fix. The other two things took a week. One of them is taking two weeks because of a part. We had a microwave that was going out and every six months, they were coming to fix the same problem and they fixed the same problem five times. They wouldn't replace it, so we just did.
Financially, AHS is a benefit. You get what you pay for, which is we have a budget and we can meet that budget because we know that American Home Shield is there. However, there is a lot of time and stress that accompanies having that financial benefit that we - if we had more money, could do it on our own and have less stress.

70% of the cases, I call American Home Shield for a claim and somebody reaches out to me. They show up within a reasonable time frame. It's hard to get contractors nowadays but they seem to prioritize AHS customers. Recently, a contractor checked out my furnace that wasn't working. They serviced it but couldn't find anything. A week later, it stopped working. They came back, and something needs to be replaced.
30% of the time, it's a contractor who I don't hear from. Then I would keep calling American Home Shield. Sometimes, it's the contractor who refuses and says it's too far or the dispatch assignment didn't go smooth. It's not a fluid process. Somebody came for furnace repair two months ago. I had a new furnace repair and it would be nice if American Home Shield could go back and see who did the furnace so they have continuation. But they assigned somebody who was very far from my home. They didn't call me back for several days. I had to call American Home Shield back. They canceled on me, and out of the blue, there was a new assigned contractor. I called American Home Shield again. They said that the contractor had pulled out and didn't wanna do the call.
It's long every time I call American Home Shield. I have to always count on 15 minutes to half an hour just to put in a request. Sometimes, I cannot understand the reps. I feel that I keep repeating my claim. Also, I've run into it where one person will say it's not covered then the next person will say it's covered, or it's the other way around. It would be nice if they get trained a little bit more before they start working on the phone. You get put on hold too. Yesterday, I called two times. I got the same girl, but she couldn't hear me. Initially, I called her for a claim. When we were processing the claim, she put me on hold. She came back but couldn't hear me. I called back, it happened again. I called back for a third time and got somebody that could hear me.

We own the house but my daughter is living in it and sometimes, AHS would put her off. Last year, her heater went out and she called on a Friday. They told her it was gonna be a Tuesday before they could get out. The temperature outside was in the 10s and 20s so it wasn't acceptable. Heat is an important commodity. AHS should work on their response times and put more of a heaviness on things like sewer blockages. When you got a water stoppage, you can't wait four days for the contractor to come out. Because it's easier just to call Mr. Rooter and get them to come out. You get it a lot quicker.

I did my own research and chose American Home Shield because I liked the promo. I also checked Better Business Bureau statistics and complaints. My real estate agent was promoting a different company, but I told her I was more comfortable with American Home Shield because I was more familiar with it. In California, where I sold my condo, we can offer American Home Shield as the home warranty during home sales. My only complaint is I'm getting too many emails and phone calls.
For this home, I've already taken advantage of the rekey service. That was exceptional, because otherwise, the policy is you have to wait 30 days, then if there's an issue, your warranty comes into play. To be able to do the rekey right away makes perfect sense to me, and the guy that came out was solid. In fact, we made an appointment for Tuesday, but I got called in to work and had to reschedule. He was very flexible with me, and we found a time that worked. He arrived early and went straight to work. He was friendly too. A couple of the locks that he was replacing, I told him, "These are really sticky. I don't know what's going on with them." I liked that they were all rekeyed to one key. It was much more convenient.

My washing machine was broken. American Home Shield makes the claim process very simple. You go online and tell them the reason why you're submitting your claim. You make your payment and based on my experience, I get my calls the same day from the provider of the service. For my washing machine, the provider called and said that they would come out in two days. They came out and were very professional. I love them. They were very nice and they didn't make me feel uncomfortable and unsafe. I'm a woman in my own house. That was good. I ended up getting a new dryer. American Home Shield is amazing.

This is my second year with American Home Shield. The first year was part of the deal when we bought the house, and the second year, I renewed because the experiences have been fine. Their pricing is a little high, but other than that, the service has been okay. The last time they came out was for my heating unit. It stopped working. I made a request online and got a response within 24 hours, then the guy came out the next day and fixed the problem. He was great. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, polite, and very neat. He put booties on when he came in the house.

It was a great thing that I was able to schedule the appointment through the app. It was helpful, especially because I made the appointment on a Saturday, which was when it happened. I didn't have hot water so the repair guy came and fixed it. He went right to solve the problem, so I like it. We have hot water now. It’s just the guy didn’t have one of the parts that it needs so he was going to submit it to get it replaced. But I haven't heard anything from the guy or from American Home Shield about that.

We've had American Home Shield for a while. We've dealt with them a lot with issues here and there. It's not bad, overall. We had a stove that got damaged. A guy came out and said it couldn't be fixed, so I had to replace it. American Home Shield had replacements that they suggested that would work, but unfortunately, it never came in stock. After a year, we ended up finding a replacement and bought it ourselves then we got the check from American Home Shield in lieu of the actual item.
I wish American Home Shield was more open to allowing the customer to use their own companies that are licensed and insured. I had a good company come out for the AC initially, on my own, because they were already the name that was on the AC. I asked American Home Shield if they could use them but they don't allow that at all. It's hit or miss with their contractors. We had one that came out for our microwave, and they were horrendous. When I looked them up online, everyone said how terrible they were. They don't have a real number or get back to you after the fact. But the last one we had come out was at the top. They've been good for the AC that we're still trying to get fixed.

For my recent claim with AHS, I went onto their website and I told them I had a leaky pipe. They found a company that was around my house and sent them out. But it wasn't a leaky pipe where the drywall fell. It was in the bathroom. It was the toilet upstairs and the water was just running down the pipe. They charged me the 125 bucks for them to come out, and then they fixed it. I also had the freezer die. The techs came and fixed it, 125 bucks. They left. But I said, "The problem was the door is bent so it doesn't seal at the bottom. That's why it keeps going out." The tech came back, didn't charge me another 125 bucks, and sent it in, "This isn't fixable." AHS gave me a $1,422 gift card to Lowe's.

We had a good experience with American Home Shield right up until we had a claim for the washer. A young kid came out and I don't think he had a clue what he was doing because he was googling the washer online to see what the part would be that he had to order. He ordered all these parts and the parts came here, and they were supposed to come. I took the day off, but they never came. So I called and I was told that I never had an appointment. But I know I did because I did it online, which was the way I was told to do it. So then, they send him back to do the parts. He had told me he wouldn't be the one coming back, but a technician would be coming back. But it was him that came back.
He put everything in and it doesn't work, so he claims it was the motor. So this is after three weeks. Now, it's gonna be another two weeks before the part possibly could be in. It was gonna be after Thanksgiving. I had a house full of people coming for Thanksgiving, and no washer to do any bedding. I was having a hissy fit about it. They ended up saying they were gonna replace it. That was fine, except they didn't tell me that. It's just lack of communication all the way around. So they're waiting for me to call them and see if I was gonna accept their exchange. It was very confusing and upsetting.
In the meantime, my husband went out and got a washer for me. Then we find out that American Home Shield wanna do a cash out of about $400 but I paid $800 for the washer, so I was irritated at that to begin with. But I picked the cash-out, which is supposed to be here. I called the other day and they were supposed to be sending it out. It was very upsetting to the point where my husband wanted me to cancel the program because he said it was too much hassle. Every time something's wrong, you don't know who's coming or what's coming.

I am not pleased with AHS. I've had a request for a refrigerator pending for over six months. I've called numerous times over the course of months. There were some parts that were supposed to be ordered, but then the parts are no longer available. And because the contractor never uploaded a report, every time I call, they put me through the same process. The representative acts as if it's the first time I'm calling and they have no clue. They insist that they have to repeat the same process and they call the contractor to ask them.
It's the 25th time I'm calling them and they should have notes documenting that the contractor is not willing to submit a report or cannot submit a report. The system blocked them out. It's beyond the date. They should have that in their system. Every time, they tell me they're escalating it and I should get a call back within 24 hours, 72 hours, by the end of the day. But most of the times, I don't get a callback. One time I got a callback, but I was told, “It looks like it's gonna take a little bit longer. I'll call you again tomorrow.” Never called back.
This is a pretty serious improvement that's needed because I don't know why I am having this problem. Other people have told me that they've had very good experiences. If they can't fix it, they replace it or give you some cash credit. My daughter and nephew experienced that. For some reason, in my scenario, in this one case, I can't get an outcome or conclusion out of them. I don't know what's going on. I'm still very frustrated.

Communication with AHS was very good. They use very good contractions who know what they're doing and are able to diagnose and fix problems. When the field technician says, “This can't be fixed,” they replace the items with quality equipment and with no hassle. I had a little over a year-old Bosch, you know, high-end dishwasher that went out due to a power surge. The tech said they don't make parts for those and he replaced it with a high-end KitchenAid.

I was having problems with the roll on the washer. It kept making a big noise and the washer moved out of place. A company came to fix the problem of the balance in the washer. I had to call American Home Shield when I did the claim because there was maintenance on the website. It has never happened to me and it was just this time. I tried twice and it didn't go through, which was why I decided to call and do it with a representative. But everything went well. The communication and the timing were perfect. The only thing was that after the contractor came to repair the washer, I encountered a new problem when I used it. After I was done washing, the area where you put the softener and the soap was full of water. So everything stayed in place and it didn't actually wash my clothes. And even though I put the cool temperature for the water, it came out hot. So every time I opened my washer, you could feel the hot water.
The contractor was good and was very prompt in calling, and the timeline was accurate. When they say they were going to come, they came, so I have no complaint about that. The only thing was that they were in a hurry and the guy misplaced the hot and the cold water, and that created a whole new problem. Mistakes happen and it's okay. But the thing is that we called and my husband left a voicemail, but they never responded back. So, my husband had to fix it. He had to take off the washer, move the cold and the hot and put it in place. After that, it was working. My husband had to finish the job so we paid for half service. I like the promptness from AHS.

Our hot water heater was starting to go out and was intermittently not working properly so we got American Home Shield in case it needs to be replaced rather than having to pick some plumber to come out. For a plumber to come out would probably be 200 bucks an hour. Whereas with American Home Shield, I can pay a $75 deductible. The hot water heater went out three months later and the home warranty ended up replacing it.
I have also had techs come out twice for the same washing machine. We kept getting failure to drain messages and it was the pump. Our washing machine came with our house so it's older. We ended up having to have the pump replaced with a new one. When the washing machine stopped draining, we called American Home Shield again.
It turned out one of the connectors on the pump wasn't connected properly. There was a little metal thing that somehow came disconnected. The tech that came was able to fix the wires. All he needed to do was reconnect them and that took him 15 minutes or so. But he had to have a new connector and had to unsheathe the thing and then rerun it and get it going. It started working just fine. I also told the tech that the washing machine was really loud when it does its final spin cycle. He looked at it really quickly and said the ball bearings were all rusted. He ordered us a new one of those as well. He came back a week later once the little spinner came and he fixed that issue. I was extremely satisfied.
Techs also came out once for our dishwasher. The little heating element that dries your dishes at the end broke somehow. It got a little crack in it and the techs fixed that. I've used American Home Shield about four or five times and it's well worth the money. It gives you peace of mind that if something goes wrong, you can have the contractor out there for a fraction of whatever it would cost to have somebody come out. I can just pay a small deductible.

I have two claims with AHS that are pending, one of which I just reinstituted because they did not follow through. I called the same firm back. It appears that they are going to do something now. But they were a little slow on the uptake and it was all over a screw for my oven. One of the things AHS told me early on was their supplier could not get his product from where he was getting it from. What was expected was that they would keep me in the loop. Instead, I was the one that had to initiate a phone call to ask a question rather than have them say to me they were having trouble getting this item but I was still on the books.
Up to that point, everybody and everything that we have used AHS for has been incredibly well done and very professional. I continue to up my renewal for AHS and I wouldn't do that if I didn't feel like it was a good investment on our part. They recently put in a water heater for us and the crew that they had was awesome. Because they didn't take care of it the first time around, we were not charged for the second visit. It all came under our contract that we have that if AHS can't fix it, they’d replace it. That cost much less money than if we were going to have to go out and buy a new one.
I certainly recommend AHS to people that I know, if they haven't heard of them before. I tell them to look into AHS because it's working for us. I've been with them for almost three years and I'm happy. I had a girlfriend that spoke very highly of them out of Westchester. She told me that I should sign up and that the home warranty pays for itself even if it is $100 a month. That was a good move on our part. I can always get a hold of somebody. Also, their time in getting back to me does not even fall under the category of lengthy, but it does take a couple of days for me to get into the queue. Their response is incredible and they back up the product that they're selling.

American Home Shield is responsive and they’ve honored their guarantees. If something isn’t fixable, they replace it without any issue. I’ve had at least two major appliances repaired over the years and they have given me a fair price for it. And I was able to buy a new product when they couldn't fix it. So, I've never had an issue. My pool timer wasn't working and the techs were great. They fixed it the same day and it’s working perfectly now. I love AHS so far.

When I call American Home Shield to request for something, I can’t understand the people on the other side of the line. American Home Shield is based in Memphis, but their call center’s overseas. They don’t know what an HVAC is. I got to looking at the policy. They cover so many things that it’s not even funny. The policy we've got right now is $45 a month. That would be $540 a year. A new central heat and air unit can cost you anywhere between $6,500 to $12,000. They cover refrigerators too. We've had to have our refrigerator worked on so many times. Thank goodness, I know a good refrigerator repairman.
Fletcher Heating and Air came out recently to do a complete central heat and air unit replacement. They got here, ordered one in the afternoon, and left at 5 o'clock. Everything was running. With this particular unit, I asked Fletcher, "Does this come with a new thermostat”? They said it didn't so I said, “Let's upgrade then.” Ecobee is the thermostat that I got. You can control it with your phone, your tablet, or your PC from home or anywhere in the country. One of the best things about it is it’s got a feature on it that I can tap, and it brings up the weather for where I live.

I'm feeling good about American Home Shield. You pay the monthly fee and $125 every time you have a claim, and that's all I've paid on anything. I've had to get a new refrigerator and I’ve had two visits to fix my air conditioning unit and the heating unit. The tech had to come back a second time for the heating unit and put a whole new board and a bunch of other stuff in. But I've not been charged anything else and everything has been quick. As soon as I tell American Home Shield that I need something done, they get the work order in and somebody's here within a couple of days. So, I've not had any issues with them at all so far and I'm very pleased with them. It's all been perfect. Everybody that they've sent has been professional and good. I found my heat and air guy from AHS. It's on my sheet that if I ever call AHS and they call the heating and air, that he's the one to come.
We bought this house in 2017 and we had another home warranty but they didn’t offer anything and I didn’t realize that. My wife’s friend recommended AHS. Her entire air conditioning unit went out and AHS replaced it. It didn’t cost her a dime other than the monthly payments and the 125. For the first initial call, it covered everything, because she had the premium package. So, we got AHS and I got the premium package, which covers all electronics and everything in the house. But I'm not gonna call them over for certain things like a printer. I’d just buy one. It's been awesome for the refrigerator. Because you're talking two grand for a refrigerator, right out of pocket. Just with the refrigerator alone, it’s way more than paid for what I've already paid in the service fees and in the monthly.
This winter, we had an issue with the furnace and the tech had to come back out again. I have gas on top of a heat pump and the unit is in terrific shape. He said that most units that's been in this long would have already started messing up and that my unit’s been well taken care of. I said that I change the filters every month and I do all the maintenance that’s supposed to be done. And the people that were here beforehand had done the same exact thing. But there was an issue with the board and the thermostat. Something wasn't working right together so we had a bunch of electric outages here. It would go out every day and I called the electric company and the guy said there were squirrels getting in the lines. Once or twice a day, the electric would go out. It was messing with that old board that was on the furnace. So the tech had to replace that, put a switch on the outside and then, replace the thermostat.
When the tech came the first time, he didn't have the stuff. So he had to come back a couple of days later, which was perfectly fine. But he did get the heat working and everything was fine to get me tidy over till he came back and actually fixed it for good. I had to call American Home Shield again for him to come back and they never charged me another fee, because it was only within the same thing. So, I was happy about that because with some of the things that I was used to in the past, they would have taken the opportunity to say it’s a whole other call so it's gonna be 125 bucks. But it wasn't like that at all. The rep said they write up the next work order and have him back out. So, the tech came back out and fixed it, and left.
My daughter bought a house last year and we had remodeled it in February. It had been sitting for 10 years so we got down and got the air conditioning unit stuff working. I said that the air conditioning unit was probably on its last legs. So, she should get ahold of American Home Shield and tell them what's going on, see what she needs to do and get the premium because it's not a matter of if but a matter of when it's gonna go out. She got on the phone and got in touch with AHS, and was honest with them and told them exactly what was going on. She ended up with a premium plan. Two months ago, the air conditioning unit went out completely. The techs came out and she paid $125.
Lee is the one that does all my stuff and he went down there, looked at it and told them that the whole thing gotta be replaced. She asked if she needed to get ahold of and he said no. He showed her on his little pad that she was covered. They were just going to replace it. He got to order it and then they’ll have a crew come in. It would take about a day and a half, and they would have it put in for her. It never cost her another dime after that. So I've been recommending American Home Shield to everybody I work with and talk to. But I don't recommend the entry level plan. I recommend the premium because if anything goes wrong, they pay for it all and you're not out any more money at all. Everything that AHS said that they were going to do, they've done. Everything that was listed in what I read when I bought it has been true so far.

Once American Home Shield contracted the repairman, the warranty called me back. The company that was sending the repairman also contacted me telling me the name of who was going to be coming and when to expect him. Jeremiah, the repairman, was great. It was not a problem if I stood and looked over his shoulder. I also asked him questions, and he responded in a friendly and wonderful manner.

The washing machine just went out. One Sunday, I was washing, and then it started making a funky noise. I decided to give American Home Shield a call. Their representative was very professional. Every time I submitted a claim with AHS, they are very courteous and professional. They told me who it was that was coming and told me to look for a call from them within 24 hours. The contractor sent me an email before 24 hours. They were also very professional. They came in, they called me and they told me what they found, and they told me they would have to get in touch with my home warranty company. They told me they had to order the part, and said as soon as the part gets back, they would give me a call and let me know when the part was in and give me a date when he would be coming to install it.
The first part was about a weekend. Once he put the first part in and it still was making a thumping noise, he had to check, and he found that he had to get down inside and found out the washer was hitting on the tray the washing machine was sitting in when you load the washer. I said, "Well, Lowe's was the one who recommended me buying the tray when I bought the washer." What happened was when they installed the washer, they didn't screw the leveling legs out. So when the washer got full, the pan had ridges on them.
He said if the pan was flat, it wouldn't have done that but since the pan had originally been rubbing underneath the bottom of the machine, that caused damage to the motor. They had to order the motor, and that took another week but I wasn't worried about that. I said, "Well, at least we know." Once he came back and put that in, everything went well. Overall, AHS does good work. The people that they've sent have done wonderful work. So, I'm truly happy.

I do the things online now, because when I call in, nobody speaks English. And I told American Home Shield that because they can never understand me and I can't understand them. But doing it online was easy. I just gave Randall & Sons. And I had their telephone number where I can call them. But the tech never called. It went three days. And I had to call him on my day off. But when I called him, he came right out. He gave me a new pipe underneath the bathroom sink. He was great. American Home Shield is a good service. It has good coverage.

American Shield Home warranty service is a total waste of money. We paid them $50 a month for a year and a half before ever needing a service, but the contractor never performed the repair. Our heat pump went out in December. We initiated the service request, but the contractor assigned to us didn't answer his phone. We talked to multiple American Shield Home representatives who failed to help us. First rep said she would expedite as emergency, but she never did. Second rep said we had to wait 24 hours to hear back from contractor. Third rep told us to wait 48 hours! Temperature to drop below freezing but we're expected to wait on American Shield Home's contractor for two days and hope he then wants the job. We canceled the service request and hired our own HVAC technician to fix the heat pump 30 hours after our request to American Shield Home.
Now, we want to cancel this useless warranty -- but, the company makes cancellation very difficult. The fourth rep said she would "make a note on my account for someone to call me." No, I want to cancel my account. I reported the company to BBB. Consumer Affairs as it states "is not a government agency AND MAY BE COMPENSATED BY COMPANIES" but, I'm going to give an honest review of American Home Shield to warn other consumers. Look at another company or better yet, use the money to start your personal home expense account. But, a home warranty company that fails to provide service to paying customers is useless.

American Home Shield is good. When our stove broke, their contractor fixed that. We're waiting on a new range hood. It's harder to fix that one because it stands by itself. It doesn't have cabinets. It's not attached to the wall, it's attached to the ceiling. Other than that, they're honest. They stay in close contact with us with everything. It's a very good service to have under your belt for a homeowner. Here in Hawaii, there's only so many contractors that American Home Shield uses the same ones over and over, which is fine. But the last one that came out gave us the runaround. I waited almost six months for that range hood to be fixed, and it's still not fixed only because that first technician they sent out wasn't very thorough. I ended up having to constantly call them every week. A new person would answer and tell me, "There are no notes." Six months forward, it's still not fixed.

The unit was making a bit of a strange noise. The contractor came out and lubricated the fan on the unit and took a look at some other things and found it was in good working order other than the fan. Overall, American Home Shield has good value for the price of service. Their technicians are relatively good quality and they seemed to have improved in quality over time. We had a plumber come out to fix an issue with our faucet recently, as well as an issue with the garbage disposal, and the relative timeliness of service has been a big benefit, especially recently. We had some appliances that were replaced by American Home Shield, as well as some more serious plumbing issues. So overall, it has been a very good experience.

We had a water heater that was leaking. We called AHS to submit a claim. When we finally were able to hear back from them, we left them a message. But they didn't respond. We finally heard that they had a contractor out that was going to fix it. But we didn't know that until we called them again. The contractor that came out to work on it was on the phone with them for two and a half hours and didn't get any answers. When we tried to call AHS again and update them, because our water heater was leaking all over our garage, we got no information. They said that they were going to send us an email with an invoice. But we never received an email with an invoice. We had to call the contracting company at least a half dozen times to get information because American Home Shield was non-responsive. When the contracting company finally got back to us, they came out and replaced it, and ended up being free of charge.
It was frustrating. I felt the contracting company was in the dark, too, because we were asking, “How much do we owe?” They said, “That goes to the warranty company. They should have sent you something.” We asked AHS multiple times for something so we would know if we needed to pay anything or what we needed to pay. We didn't really have a whole lot with that. We're just glad it got replaced. But if we have to use them again, we're not really sure how that's gonna go because we had a poor experience with them.

It's been an 11-day battle trying to get a furnace put in. Every time you contact somebody, it's 24 or 48 hours before you get somebody that can try to answer a question for you. That's difficult to deal with. The first contractor American Home Shield sent out failed to find a cracked heat exchanger. So within 24 hours, the furnace went out again. They sent a second tech out. That was when he had made a comment that the heat exchanger had cracks in it and that this furnace was registering carbon dioxide leakage.
I didn't feel comfortable with who American Home Shield sent out. I didn't want him back in my house for the misdiagnosis. That could have been deadly with carbon monoxide leaking. I wanted a second opinion. One person said they don't have anybody else in the area. Finally I got ahold of a person that said they have some other people in the area that could come out. They got a second opinion, but they said that person was just doing a second opinion and it had to go back to the first contractor that came out. I told him I didn't want him in my house any longer and I’d like to have the other contractor do the work.
American Home Shield has been great to us. We've even done some of the buy-outs before. They've always been very fair. But for this claim, they're way out of line. We're gonna have to not have our granddaughter come into town this weekend or for Christmas because we didn't know if we're going to have a furnace in operation. If the homeowner wants a second opinion, American Home Shield should allow that to happen. They should have two contractors in the area they can trust to do the work. They have four that originally came out then they offered three others to do the other assessment. They should give us the option.
I know they're getting discounts through the manufacturer of the product along with the labor, but I hired them as my warranty company and I expected them to be at my back as well. We've been with them for 23 years, and it's disappointing that there was such a battle to get this taken care of. I'm just glad that we're getting the furnace now hopefully, but it hasn't happened yet so I've got to call into the contractor that they approved to do it. I’m waiting to hear back from him to see how soon we can get this done.

With my appliances, the contractor was great. The guy is wonderful. I had the washer and the guy said, "You have a good washer, but they don't make your part anymore." So, they gave me another washing machine and I like it. But my refrigerator wasn't putting out the ice. It would build up and it wouldn't dispense it. The tech thought he fixed it. And when I called them, I said, "It's been three days and I don't have any ice in my tray." He said, "Call American Home Shield and I'll come back and I'll come and look at it." So, I did and he came out and looked at it, and told us it must be a default in this. Sometimes, you get it. He noticed it's filled up with ice. He flipped over, pushed the reset. I said I've done that. And he watched it. I said, "But that's it. But you can't reset that button but once a day." So, he said there was a default in that. "We'll send it back and get you another one. Call AHS and let them know what happened."
It was easy to get in contact with AHS. But after I got in contact with them, the guy was very hard on me. He told me to go there and he tried to put me on a video. But my phone didn't do that. My phone's an Android and he did an iPhone. I did the thing, but it would not. And he said I didn't have that camera on my phone. Yet he still demanded me to do that. I told him I cannot do that and he was making me late for work. I told him I can just give him a serial number. But he said, "I want you to go in there and do what I tell you to do. I will send you a link and you open that link and you will follow the instructions." He also told me to download an app. I did not like him and I don't like him to call me anymore the second time I got him. I just hung the phone up, left and went to work.
I was at work and somebody named Ron called me and asked about the refrigerator. I said, "I'm sorry, I can't tell them. I'm at work." He said, "You keep the phone next to you. You keep the phone. And when I call you again, you answer the phone. You keep the phone right there." I said, "I don't want you either. I'm a nurse." And they said, "Who was that?" I was not pleased with whoever.

But they would reimburse me if the finding was different. The next guy came out and he was a legit business person with common sense and they fixed it all. The first guy told me it was going to take three or four days and it was going to be $1,800 to $2,200 to fix and all of that was out of pocket.

American Home Shield surely does what it advertises to do. I've been gladly surprised. There was something that went wrong with my air conditioning and I was out of the country when it happened. AHS took care of having somebody come and assess. My granddaughter told me the tech had a problem and he made the decision that he could tell what instrument had been used on the unit. That instrument was not used on it at all. I've had some work done on my 24-year-old house but nothing has been done recently. I wanted a reassessment and AHS set up a second person who came up with a different assessment. From that, we went into action to try to fix what was wrong.
It took a while to get it done because we had trouble trying to find a part that could possibly fix it without having to put in a new system. After we found out that we couldn't find the part because the unit was older than I guessed, we ended up getting a new unit. I had some out-of-pocket money to pay, but it wasn't anything near what I ended up getting. So I'm very pleased with American Home Shield and I'm so thankful that I joined.

There are many benefits to having a home warranty. Everything's fine. Up until now, we've never considered making any changes. However, we had a claim that was a nightmare. We're in the cold part of the year. A week or three ago, the heater came on as usual, except it blew cold air for a short while. It was just a blast. But everything was fine and the house would heat up. It would blow cold air at first but that's because it's up in the attic where the ductwork is cold. I tried to tell my wife that but she wanted it checked. My wife can't just call a regular heating and air person. She has to go through Home Shield. She called them and she just wanted a welfare check on the heater to make sure everything was okay. We had no problem paying the bill.
A guy comes out, looks at the heater, and makes an estimate. He said, "We're going to drop in this and drop in that because it has to be compliant with the new rules and you got to use the right kind of juicer." The parts were 100 bucks and he had to replace a part because it leaked. Putting the new juice was $1,100 and that was our part of the deal. A few years ago, you could normally buy it for 10 bucks a pound. Now, it's hundreds of dollars a pound. That's excessive.
Two weeks go by and they got the parts. The guy shows up and does whatever he does. He fixes it, this and that. When he leaves, the heater didn't go off. It kept on running. We're going to have an enormous electric bill because of him. I called them up. They're right here in the neighborhood but they're too busy to come back and correct the problem. The guy said to do this and do that. In the end, I had to go out to the breakers on the side of the house where the power comes into the house and shut the power off. They were gonna get a guy over here but he didn't get here until 7:00 at night. The unit shuts off and it shuts on like that. The techs fix it but now, it's blowing cold air.
I get the guy to finally say, "This thing's blowing cold air." It was cold last night. Also, when the guy was here, he presented an invoice and my wife paid it. She accidentally paid it $100 short. She gave him 1,100 when it should have been 1,200. That's a decent chunk of dough. The guys said we still owed $100. I said, "Are you kidding me?" He is not coming out because I owe him.
American Home got a fella out here today. Originally, he would be coming here late this afternoon. But he got here at 11:00 this morning. He was a really nice and clean-cut kid. He did excellently. He was polite and he got the job done. But he wasn't getting any more money until I know that this thing works. The unit is working now. I said to the kid that if the thing was working tomorrow, there would be a check for him in the mail tomorrow night or Saturday morning. If people are not pleased with anything that we do, I'm all over it. My customers are everything. But the first guy got 1,100 and he was a petty piece of junk.

Having a home warranty is a good idea in case something in the house breaks, and generally, I'm satisfied with American Home Shield.

Of the two experiences that I've had with American Home Shield, they weren't able to cover one, which was an electrical issue. I paid the electrician outright.

When we moved in the house, the downstairs air conditioner stopped working. We submitted a claim to American Home Shield, and they sent out a company called Stockdale Services. After a couple of visits, Stockdale Services ended up replacing the coil in the air conditioner upstairs. Everything was working fine then it got cold here after a couple of months. In November, we were running the heat, and the heat downstairs stopped working. I submitted another service request to American Home Shield, and they sent out a different company this time, A-US.
What A-US found was that the work that Stockdale had done was so bad and incorrect that it had caused the problems that we were having, and it put the compressor under pressure to the point where it was kicking itself off. They had also put a coil in the air handler that was the wrong brand. It did not match the Rheem system that we have. They had also installed water piping in the attic, to where if it were to leak, it would leak into our ceiling. They had done a bunch of stuff wrong and A-US recommended to American Home Shield that the work be redone and done correctly and that the air handler be completely replaced.
American Home Shield has agreed to the repairs that A-US is recommending to fix the things that Stockdale did incorrectly, but they're wanting me to cover about $1,500 of those costs. I've disputed that saying I don't want to have to pay that because it was not on me that a contractor of theirs came out, did a bad job and incorrectly installed the equipment.
