    The first plumber called and said they could do the job. Then they came and couldn't do it. I called AHS and argued with one of the reps there saying that, "The techs diagnosed the problem and you're gonna have to pay another $100 to get somebody else." I said, "They didn't diagnose the problem. I told them what the problem was." That went back and forth for a long time. I even told them that there were some mold and it needs to be cut to the drywall. When they got here, they couldn't do that. But they tell me they diagnosed the problem and they got the $100 for saying they did that. That's a flat out lie. Finally, they called the first plumbers to say, "No. We don't want to come back." So they ended up giving me the plumber I wanted for the second choice and they did a good job.

    AHS should get people who know American culture and some language. It's hard to to get someone who knows how to talk English and to whom you won't repeat yourself. I can't work that way sometimes. So I hang up.

    We were doing laundry, and we figured out that the washer wasn't really draining things the way that it should be. So, I gave American Home Shield a call. I spoke to a representative right away. It was kinda convenient. They did a diagnostic, and we did that through FaceTime. So, I thought that was kinda cool. They were attentive, too.

    After I submitted the claim for my dryer and the days leading up to the techs coming to look at it, my microwave also started being on the fritz. It was continuing when I stopped it and was doing weird stuff. When I was first buying the warranty, the gentleman that I spoke with said that if you have more than one needed service, you could group them under the single $100 copayment and that could save you money. So, I was trying to call American Home Shield to ask if there was some way to tack the microwave repair on my claim for the dryer. I was told that I would be on hold for a while and I didn't have time to wait for it, so I let it go. I also didn't look on the website to check since it is my assumption that the website doesn't have that functionality to let me tag on. Other than that, submitting a claim with AHS was easy and the contractor they sent out was good.

    I have used American Home Shield several times with only one area being a challenge. Earlier this year, my built-in microwave needed a repair. There were several contractors assigned, but none of them would do work with American Home Shield because there were unpaid bills apparently. It took probably 60 days or more to get it fixed. But usually, anytime that I've had to get service has been fairly quick. I usually have a contractor assigned that day and the contractor gets in touch with me within 24 to 48 hours. I renewed the contract so it can't be all that bad.

    The last couple of claims I've put in, American Home Shield wouldn't pay this last one with the plumbing. My toilet was cracked. And they said they couldn't fix it. They would replace it but that was a lie because they didn't agree to do it. They wanted to charge me $450 to replace the toilet. I already paid $75. So that's $525 to replace the toilet, which is crazy. I had my air condition and I needed to fix it, and they wanted me to pay an astronomical amount of money to get it done. I went out and purchased a new one. They wouldn't give me a credit for anything. I'm very dissatisfied with them. My wife tried to cancel them a couple of times but they wouldn't let her do it.

    Every time I call, American Home Shield sends out Doctor Cool. When the upstairs air conditioning had a low flow, the technician did his inspections and he found the service valve was leaking and there was no coolant. So he had to put coolant in. He also resealed the service valve and then did the temperature check at the registers. Everything was fine. Before he left, he said, "Let it run. If anything happens, give us a call. We'll come back out." But it's been fine.

    I love American Home Shield. They're great. I've been with them throughout my whole entire life. Every house we had, we had them. The best part of having them is their reliability. When something breaks, you know they're there to back you up and to help you and provide everything that you need to possibly get the job done to whatever it is that you called it on.

    Air Dynasty came out because of our air conditioning. We have a two-story home but a one-ton unit. The dampers have motors in them to where it's like when the bottom is cooling off, it closes up to release the cool air to the top. One of the motors had broke or wouldn't open the damper, so they had to replace that motor to have the AC flow to each part of the house.

    I didn't like the first tech that came out. He only checked one and gave us advice about the filters that we should put. I knew that that was sort of wrong because when you’re putting those filters in, you’re trapping your air and you’re cluttering up your AC because the air doesn't have anywhere to go. The second tech came out and said exactly what we thought that it was just blocking the air and clogging up the passageway of our thing. He sat us down and gave us pictures by pictures of the airflow throughout the house and the roof. He was a better person to show us what we needed. Overall, AHS' customer service is excellent. They get on the job right then and there before I can hang up. That person who they assigned to me is already calling me before I can even hang up the phone.

    American Home Shield addressed the problems I had and took care of them. We had the hot water heater go bad. It was leaking. The technicians were good. They had sent the wrong water heater the first time. It was a natural gas water heater. We are way out in the boonies and it should have been propane. The wrong thing was installed, but Home Shield was on top of it. When we had them come back out, the techs realized what they had done and they corrected it. Home Shield insisted they put a brand-new one in and not just repair the one they had sent wrong. So, it was a good experience. We did not have to pay anything, too.

    I initially had a lot of issues with American Home Shield. My outside air conditioner stopped working and they sent a contractor out. The contractor diagnosed the issue as a piece inside the house where the air and everything was being defective. We were waiting and I was calling asking where the part was. It kept going and going. Finally, I reached out to the gentleman who put that unit in for me about 10 years ago and he was very suspicious of the contractor's diagnosis since that part very rarely ever goes bad. Techs came back and looked at it. It was in fact the outside unit that was bad and not the piece inside the house.

    The issue went over three months. Finally, American Home Shield ignored me. I paid someone to fix the air conditioner and went back to the home warranty and told them to give me my money back. That wasn't smooth and I ended up having to sue them. After they got notice of the suit, all of a sudden they wanted to talk to me which was fine. But that was what I had to do to get their attention.

    After that initial bad experience, everything else went smoothly. I had two different things I needed to be fixed. American Home Shield was professional. They took the claim and it got assigned to somebody. I then got an email telling me who it was assigned to and it went well. I talked with the contractor on the phone before they came out. I was comfortable that they were professional and knew what they were doing. The initial issue was in one room where there was a Mitsubishi-style system and it wasn't working. The techs ended up having to replace the whole unit because they couldn't get parts to fix the one piece that wasn't working. In another room, I had the same type of system. They were able to get parts to fix that one.

    American Home Shield wants to do everything over the computer, which is fine. Their website was interactive. They took my money quickly and then I got an email back saying the fact that the vendor would be following up with me. There was no follow-up from American Home Shield at all to see whether or not I had received anything. I had to track down the vendor to get them to call me back four days later to set up an appointment. Also, I just realized today that they increased their prices significantly. So I'm looking to see if I can find a cheaper company because they've almost doubled the price to me.

    My dishwasher was filled with water, but it wouldn't drain. I called American Home Shield and I had two contractors come out. Sears was my first, and they set the appointment and came just like they said. It was only a couple of weeks. They came pretty fast, and there was no problem with them other than they couldn't get all the parts for the dishwasher. There were three parts that were going to be replaced, but the main one was the master circuit control. Sears informed me that they couldn't get that part, but I had to call to find out when I didn't hear from them. Sears was very good, but we didn't have a dishwasher for almost three months by the time it was all finished. American Home Shield gave me a Lowe's voucher for $725 to get another dishwasher.

    I like American Home Shield. I had them in the past and they've always been very good. They're better now because years ago they would prorate your dishwasher and give you an amount based on the prorated price. For example, if you had it two years, they would give less. This time, they just gave me the exact amount for that particular dishwasher. So they changed their policy on that.

    I told my stepfather that he needs to get American Home Shield for his house, and he's going to do that. I heard about American through some people as well. I used to have a business at the airport, and they're the ones who told me about it. They were fabulous with them, so I went with them too and it's always worked for me. I don't know that you save a lot of money because you're paying them $100 to come out then you're paying that monthly fee. So it averages out. We're about even now. I didn't have to lay out a lot of money for the other dishwasher.

    Every time I call in, I always have to pay a large sum of money to get something repaired. Whenever I explain what I wanted to have done, as a consumer, I don't understand it. That's why when I called them, I explained what I wanted to do. I said, “I want my AC to be covered. I want my hot water heater to be covered.” I want it to make it to where if I have any repairs, I'm not going to be out of pocket. And they said, "No. We cover the AC. We cover this. We cover that.”

    So at the time that it's time to get stuff done, people are coming out and it just comes out to be that they only cover the bare minimum, which leaves me as a consumer with a cost. My hot water heater was an additional $600. I had to replace my AC unit, which was $6,000 and American Home Shield only gave me $1,000 towards that. They were going to fix it. I could have fixed the problem and it still would have cost me $2,000. And it would only have been warrantied for 30 days. And if it went out again, that would have been another $2,000 or I could have made the decision to go ahead and replace the unit because it was so old.

    One of the things AHS says is, "If we can't fix it, we'll replace it." My AC unit at this time was so old that it was patching it. And I understand they gotta be in the market to make money. But living in Texas with the extreme heat that we have here and the issue that the AC was having, it was better to replace it. I made the decision to go ahead and replace it versus keep throwing money at an old unit. So, I'm not pleased with it.

    I've had other small issues and there were no issues with them. But when it comes to the larger issues, that if I just took the payment that I was making, the months I've never used the warranty, I would have had the money to pay for my AC unit straight up. The $60 I'm paying AHS a month, if I put that money aside and something happens, I can cover what they cover. 6 years times 60 is what my account would have been.

    Ryan, the tech, confirmed that there was nothing wrong with my AC, which I thought was the case, but it's been so hot recently. It was an excess amount of condensation. Ryan ended up looking at both units, and I was very pleased with him. My wife also said she would have felt comfortable being at home, if I weren't here, with Ryan. He didn't give off any weird vibes, and he was knowledgeable and looked at you when he talked to you. He seemed like a person you could trust.

    I've had American Home Shield for eight years now and have always had really good service. This is the third house I've had, and I heard horror stories when I moved here to Elizabeth City eight months ago. When I say horror stories, it's regarding people having to come down from Virginia, and you don't always get the best service. Other people have had issues with it, and I said, “Well, I've never had a problem, so I'm using American Home Shield.” The first time I needed them, I was a little apprehensive making a call because of what I'd heard. But Ryan came right out, and we were very happy with it. So I will be renewing my policy within the next week. It expires the end of this month, and I'm getting a lot of notices from AHS that it's time to renew.

    The tech who came for the washing machine-dryer combination was great and American Home Shield's service has been good. Like most people, I don't like to get a whole lot of marketing emails. But in the case of AHS, I would like to see a few more emails marketing-wise such as suggestions for maintenance. I saw a couple of years ago that they were running some type of special deal on air conditioning maintenance. Most people let their air conditioners go but most of their appliances go until they won't. There could be a major cost involved or they might even need to be replaced. But that could have been avoided with maybe regular or better maintenance. So one of the things that I saw that one time was a great idea. It saves AHS money in the long run and it's less hassle for us because no one wants to deal with a totally inoperative appliance, especially air conditioning. But I haven't seen it since so that's too bad.

    I’ve had significant issues with AHS in the past in terms of when I moved into this home two years ago. They continued to bill me for the American Home Shield coverage of the people who had lived here prior to me. Despite frequent complaints, despite challenging charges with my bank, they continued to bill me. The prior homeowners had not notified them of their departure. So, they had not given them the change of address. Even though I kept telling AHS about it, they just continued the problem. But there are times that they are very responsive with repairs and coverage, there are just some broader issues in terms of how they're managing their operations. Rooter King Plumbing was professional for my recent claim. They did the job and were on time. They did the work properly and fixed the problem.

    This is my second time with AHS. The first time was absolutely horrible. I had a microwave and they told me to pull it out before they could fix it, but the technician told them that it was not fixable. We went back and forth for about six months and they said they weren't gonna do it. I canceled and then I got them again in January. I had a claim for my air condition on the Fourth of July weekend. The technician that they sent came on that Saturday and they told me they would call me on the 5th to tell me what was going on. They did not call. I ended up calling him on the 12th and they said they will see what American Home Shield has to say. Then, they finally came out but I had to pay an additional $180 because they said the piece was not included. Do I like AHS? No, but I have no other home service to use. If you can find someone else, get someone else that's more credible.

The next day, they came out, identified what needed repair, ordered the part, and came back less than a week later to repair it. They repaired two different appliances. One had no problem then they had to come back and fix something else. But that wasn't on them. Something else broke and fell under it.

Recently, there was an issue with the lights in the kitchen and there was another issue with the light in the bedroom. Then the main light stopped. The contractor did a temporary fix, but they said it might stop working again at any time. The only way to fix it permanently was to replace the whole unit.

I had to keep calling and see what the issue was. They’re trying to get ahold of the same person because he needed to fill out some paperwork. It was a pretty long process.

    I just had a repair for my central air and I had to pay $600 for two pounds of Freon in addition to the 125 for the call. That’s a lot of money to come out of pocket. If I needed three pounds, that's almost $1,000. I don't understand why American Home Shield does not include Freon in the plan. Since this has happened, it’s not cost-effective but prior, it's been working for me. The only complaint I had before was my refrigerator icemaker wasn't working, and they refused to repair the refrigerator. I just bought a new refrigerator, and I think they should reimburse me for at least half. I paid $150 for the service call, too.

    As far as submitting a claim and speaking to someone about a pending claim, the hold time is way too long. On average, you may be on hold for at least 20 minutes. When I needed service last year, I was on hold for about four hours just to get information about the stove that they repaired. The stove was so old, and they no longer made parts. So, I had to choose a new stove. It was a daunting task getting that done, but the person who finally picked up and helped me was excellent and very helpful.

When we bought another house last year, I decided that it made sense to get the coverage.

    My air conditioning unit went out and stopped blowing hot air. The gentleman from Harbor Air said that it was the coil. There was some work that needed to be done to the coil and it was not covered under my plan. I had to pay out of pocket and I wasn’t too pleased about that. Also, I feel that there's too big of a gap in the length of time to place the call and get service. It used to be within the day or two days but now it's a week. I had to have my air condition serviced and it took almost three weeks to do the diagnostics and for the parts to come in.

    When my refrigerator went on the blink back in December of 2020, I placed the call to get it repaired and the part was backordered. I was told it was gonna be about two weeks. Then, I was told six weeks. March came and the part never came. I was frustrated. I asked for a replacement. The gentleman who I spoke with, the manager, was very rude and disrespectful to me as a customer. It ended up an aftermarket part was put on the refrigerator. Then I get a call in July of last year and they asked me if I was still waiting for the part. Prior, if the part was not repaired, they would replace my refrigerator. I don't know what the deal with the program is now. I came very close to canceling my account with American Home Shield as a result of that and I wouldn't recommend them.

    Recently, our central air went out. American Home Shield had a reputable company come out and check on it for us. The technician was fine. The problem today is trying to get parts, and that is not anything to do with the technician or AHS. It's just the way the country is right now. Unfortunately, we don't have American companies making parts. I've gone through the same thing with my microwave and dryer. It's a nightmare right now trying to get things fixed. You can get a technician, but they have to come back when they can get the parts.

    But as far as AHS and the technician, I've been very pleased. I've recommended it and had two more people take out AHS because of my recommendation. Because you never ever know when that surprise visit of something breaking is going to happen. I’d rather pay the premium. It's like home insurance. You pay that premium for the what ifs. Because it can happen to anyone. And it always seems to happen at the worst possible time. It's nice to know that for a small deductible, you can get a company to come out and do your repairs. That company has already been vetted by AHS. They have a contract with someone who has been in business for a while.

    I tell all the young couples that don't have money and retired people that they're on a fixed income, that is the way to go. You plan and they will take it out by the month. It's right out of your checking account if you want them to. And that way, you know what you're going to pay, you budgeted for it, and you don't have all those big surprises. And they have been very good with me.

    We bought a house two years ago. In the first year, we had the microwave and stove go out and AHS replaced both of them. They could not get the parts, so they replaced them both. And they allowed me to take a check for the amount that they could have replaced that identical device for. And I was able to go and get an upgrade by using their money. I was happy and they're happy because I got a brand-new product and I'm still playing insurance. So, that worked for both of us. They’ve been very fair with what they work with you.

American Home Shield was good about replacing my water heater when it broke. It happened over the holidays so that took a little longer to get someone out.

    This is only my second time doing a claim and we did it through American Home Shield’s online service. It was fairly good. I loved it. Once our claim was filed for our water heater, they told us that because it takes precedence over several other things, whatever other issues that people have, they would get us within the next cancellation. So, we were scheduled two days out. Then, they called us and said that they had a cancellation so they can put us in even earlier. They communicated with us about everything and answered anything that we had questions about. They gave us more information than we asked for. When I go to work, I tell people the issues I’m having. They are in the market for buying a house and I let them know right off the bat that having a warranty is a good advantage and it helps them save a lot. So, a lot of times they asked me who I have warranty through and I recommend AHS.

    The turnaround when AHS advertises is 24 to 48 hours but that's not true at all and when the technician turns in whatever they found at your house, they don't even bother to call you. You have to call them to find out what's going on with your claim. I got a claim right now and I had to pay three deductibles to get my dryer, which they're finally gonna replace. They replaced the heating element the first time but a week later, the door stopped working again. The contractor came back out and at the time, the heating element went out again. The tech told me he had to order a part for the door. On the third time they came out, they decided to replace it. But that's three deductibles I had to pay.

    Also, my plumbing issue just got addressed. I have paid them three different deductibles to come out here to check my washing machine, where water was coming from under. They checked it out when they checked the dryer and they said the washing machine was fine and I needed a plumber to come out. The plumber came out and he didn't see any leaks. It has totally messed up my flooring now. When the guy came out this last time to check my dryer, he opened up my water heater door. He said the bottom of it is rotten out. They told me they're gonna replace the water heater and it's gonna cost me $900. They take out the 125 deductible every time I make a claim immediately but they can't send anybody out here to check my appliances or do anything for me for weeks. That makes no sense to me when they advertise 24 to 48 hours.

We were just standing there watching the temperature go down from 91.

    Overall, AHS is convenient and reliable. The only gripe that I did have with the AC people is that it was steaming hot and I called back to see what my appointment time was and the rep said from 8:00 in the morning to midnight, but he's going to call.

He said he would try to come out in the afternoon.

I wasn't expecting anything until that Tuesday, the fifth of July, but he came on that Friday and was just real helpful. He was a nice guy. If I didn't have the warranty and if I had to call somebody myself, I would call him back. He seemed to really care about getting it done.

    I've been with American Home Shield for a little over a month and so far, services have been good. The process in terms of starting the claim was really good. It was really efficient. I went through a representative because it was my first time. But in the future, I probably would do the claim through their IVR or online portal because I would rather communicate that way. Once the technician from the Frog Pro company came out, it was really quick. He came in and said, "User error." I needed to clean off my air conditioning unit. He was here for a few minutes. But he also told me about a free service that I could have. If you get a code, you can get a free AC or HVAC check.

    I called to schedule the service but I couldn't get ahold of anyone at the Frog company and no one was answering my call. So I called American Home Shield today to escalate this and I haven't heard back from the supervisor yet. But it's only been a few hours and they said someone will call me back within 24 hours. So that's no reflection of American Home Shield. But someone should honor what this man told me. The guy that I spoke to today and in the past sounded a little scripty. I can tell when someone's reading a script or when they're following a script versus when it seems more authentic or conversational.

    American Home Shield's service is fine, except for when their operators don't articulate your problem correctly and you have the wrong service provider that comes out. I've had it happen a couple of times. The clarity of some of their operators are very difficult. Sometimes I couldn't understand what they're saying. And it's very frustrating. So, even though they're speaking English to me, I don't know. On a couple of occasions, I said, “Please. I can't with you. Get me somebody who I can understand so we can get past this.”

    I called about my mini-split systems. It's heating and cooling. A lot of times you'll see it in beach houses. Or when it's hard to put a regular heating or cooling system in, you'll see a mini-split system. Or in my case, my entire house has them because they were more efficient than the regular gas, air push system. I told AHS there's water leaking out of one of my mini-split systems. And I made sure they understood mini-split. It’s not a wall air conditioner unit. They're not the same. They're nowhere near the same. They sent me somebody out here who thought it was a wall air conditioning unit and they don't service mini-splits. So, that's another couple of days or weeks that I have to wait for a new one because it's the summer season.

    They got somebody out here quickly. And the second group that they got out here knew exactly. They were in here five minutes and fixed the problem. But they wasted everybody's time. They wasted the whole time of another company who doesn't service those. Other than that, it's fine. None of the above would stop me from subscribing to AHS again today.

    The refrigerator wasn't cooling, so I called American Home Shield and told them I didn’t know what was going on, but maybe there was a leak in the freon. I got an email back from American Home Shield and it wasn't even 24 hours. They said that they had assigned it to Premier Appliance Repair. I got an email from Premier and they said that somebody would call. Sure enough, somebody called on Monday, and they assigned somebody. They asked me some questions and I gave them the answers as best I could.

    They had a guy come out within two or three days and the freezer was working fine. It was the bottom section so he pulled it out. He looked at it and said there was no leak in the freon. The motor was running. I said, “Inside the lower compartment, you can adjust the temperature to the factory setting. Then you can either go to the left to make it a little warmer, or you can go to the right to make it colder. But the only way I can get this refrigerator to work is if I crank it way over to the right to make it as cold as possible, then the motor will run.” He said he knew what the problem was. He turned it back to the factory setting, whacked with his fist right where the temperature selector is, which is center of the refrigerator top, right underneath the freezer in the refrigerator section, and the motor kicked right on.

    He said I had a bad thermostat and he had to order a thermostat but with supply chain issues, it would be a minimum of two weeks. I cranked it way back over to the right. I waited exactly two weeks, but I didn't hear from him, so I called Premier and asked what was the deal. They called me right back and said the part should be there within a day or two. A couple of days later, they called me and said, “The parts here. Let's go ahead and schedule the repair.” The whole process took about three weeks. The same repair guy that was there the first time came back. He took the thermostat unit out and put the new one in. It took him 15 minutes to take it apart and put it back together, and it's been working fine since then.

    American Home Shield sent A-1st to fix my air conditioning that wasn't working. The central air wasn't coming on with the thermostat at all. They had to go out and fix it for me outside. The tech was excellent. He said he had to do some Freon and he fixed the piece and he also changed the air filter on my furnace. My central air is working fine now.

    When I called AHS on the phone to do the claim, the rep told me that I would get an email confirmation. She told me the name of the company. Then she told me that they would call me and set up an appointment within the next couple of hours when they could come out. Right after I did the call with American Home Shield, they called me that next hour and told me they would be out the next day between 10:00 and 2:00. The tech was here at 10:45. I referred American Home Shield to all my colleagues and my family members.

    AHS is outstanding. I've never had a problem with them and they've replaced different things for me for minimum service fees. Recently, the microwave quit working. I submitted a claim and I got a email that A&E was going to show up. It also had their phone number, the time, and the date of the appointment. The first time they were supposed to show up, my wife stayed home and they didn't show up. And at 6:00 at night, they finally called me and said they would need to reschedule it. I kept doing automated updates and they kept pushing the time back. And eventually, the technician from Sears called up, said that they were overbooked, and that they would have to come back on Monday.

    The first tech who came out was a young man and he was respectful. He opened the door to the microwave and looked down at the nameplate. He saw that the part number was there, but the upper half of it was worn off. He didn't even diagnose it and just left. I called him back and he said he couldn't order parts. So, I came home and I found the part number on the internet. I compared it to the microwave part number that was there, then another tech came out. The guy troubleshot a couple of switches and that still didn't fix the issue. So, we ordered new parts, which came yesterday, and we're waiting for him to come back to complete the repair. This second tech that came in was a complete professional and very knowledgeable. I couldn't ask for him to do more. But we don't know what's going to happen the next time when they come out on the 17th.

    American Home Shield does a good job of responding and the technicians have generally been very good. However, it takes so long for someone to get out. For example, I have no water right now and I haven't had for three days. There's no deal for emergencies. They don't seem to care if you're without water or electricity. American Home Shield needs to have contractors to have an emergency type crew that can get out to the house because going without water for five or six days is not much fun. I called them on Tuesday about this water leak, and they sent somebody out. But they discovered that they couldn't do anything with it and would have to have a leak detect company come out. Now the leak detect company won't be out here until Sunday afternoon, so that's a bummer because I've had to turn the water off to the house.

    We've only put in one request for service this year, and that was not very long ago. We were told that somebody would come in a couple of days. And we were contacted and said it would be another week. That didn't sit very well with us. My husband dealt with the person that came out. He said they seemed to be very knowledgeable.

    American Home Shield has too many people that cannot be understood. Both my husband and I have some hearing difficulties, but everybody has an accent that it's very difficult to follow what's being said by most of AHS' employees. Also, I'm extremely disappointed because of what we went through. We were contacted several times during January. Our renewal date was January 28th. Several times before that, we were contacted. The one time, the man said that since we would be upgrading to this new service that AHS had, we could have $100 discount. I told him that I would check with my husband and he could call back in a couple of days. It was getting towards the 28th so I called in. The person that I spoke with in AHS' sales department apparently must have been new.

    Calls and calls and calls, trying to collect the $100 that we didn't owe. They repeatedly called and wanted to have their $100. Very upsetting. And we were told many times it was being taken care of, and we’d get another call. I'm disappointed that AHS would be that low as to treat customers like that. We had been a customer for a long time.

I was without any cooler for one of them for about a week but they came in, got it cleaned up, got it taken care of, and they were very nice about it. The only thing is I was looking through the new contract, and I know they have to be super thorough, but some of it is a little confusing.

    The AC unit that's outside, one of the central units, started shaking and making horrible grinding sounds. That was when it was 105 degrees. We got a wall unit and put it in, because all the air completely stopped. When the repair guy came out, I told him that it stopped because it was making a bad grinding sound. He said, “It might be your fan that's going out," but he never changed that. He said the compressor was bad so he changed that. A week later, the unit did it again, and it completely stopped working, so the repair guy had to come back out again and replace the fan. Now, there's something on the grate on the top and I don't know what that is. I also don't know if I'm gonna have to do a recall on that. I'm waiting on somebody I know who does HVAC to come and take a look at it. Because if it's just rigged up, the repair company is gonna come out here for the third time and fix it completely.

    I did the service request through a representative on the phone, and it was fine. The rep helped me, and even the second time I had to call back for a recall. I wanted to make sure I was not stuck paying another deposit when from the beginning I said what was wrong. American Home Shield reassured me that it was a recall and they were gonna come out. The repair company was not very happy about it, but if the issue would have been fixed from the get-go, I wouldn't have had to call again. Home Shield was very good with helping me and getting them to come out. My contract’s coming to an end, so I'm getting ready to go ahead and redo that. My mom should be signing up as well.

    American Home Shield sometimes assigns contractors that I might not be 100% comfortable with if I were to try to find a contractor on my own. They can improve on 2 things. Number one is clarity on what's included in the coverage and what's not. The website has information out there but I've heard stories about people who have older air conditioning unit that needs the freon that they don't make anymore or is expensive, and something like that doesn't get covered. Number two is the contractors. I had one contractor come and tell me that I needed a new furnace.

    I read a lot of reviews on the plumber that I recently used to fix. That went fine because the guy came in on time and did his job very efficiently. But when I looked up the contractor that American Home Shield had assigned me prior to them coming out, it was a company that had rebranded from their prior company. The reviews on the prior company were atrocious online. 1 star out of 5 for the dozen reviews that were out there. It talked about them being in cahoots with American Home Shield.

    I called American Home Shield that morning before the contractor came. I said, “I’m going on record saying that I'm not comfortable with who you're sending because of the reviews I read.” They said they would try to get a supervisor to come out, but I don't think they did. The guy that came out did fine and got the job but it makes me a little uncomfortable to know that there could be some arrangements that American Home Shield has with contractors to try to find work that conveniently is not included in the warranty.

    The unit wasn't cooling off. The thermostat was set on 74 and the temperature in the house kept reading 81 or 80. The tech from Comfort First came out and he diagnosed the issue fairly quickly but he had to come out a second time because it still isn't where it's supposed to be.

    I haven't had great experience with the service people. When I first got here, my refrigerator went out. That was right before Christmas and AHS sent the guy out. He said it was fixed and two days before Christmas, it broke down. So, I wasn't gonna have any service. I had to buy another refrigerator to put in the garage because my kids were coming down for Christmas and so I had all this food. The tech came back and fixed it a second time. It was 35 days so I had to pay another $100. I was like, "Wait a minute, this guy keeps coming back to fix this refrigerator." I asked the rep and she said, "We have to get him to cash it out." I asked, "Would you if you know you can keep coming back and fixing it?”

    After the fourth time he came, I was like, "Don't send him back." AHS sent someone else and as soon as the tech came, he said, "Oh wow. The other tech was putting antifreeze in and it was leaking. That's against the law. He doesn't have the part for this refrigerator. So he had to cash it out. AHS gave me $1,400 and that is not going to buy a thing. So, I had to put money with it.

    My air conditioner went out on July 5th. May Heating and Air has to be the worst air conditioning company in the world. They were really nice but when the tech came the first time, he was there 10 minutes and he said, "Oh, it's fixed now. Give it six hours to get cool." It didn't get cool so I called back. He said that I had to get put back on the schedule which meant another six days.

    He came back and he said he fixed the problem. He said he was putting a motor in it because the motor had gone bad. A few days after that, the AC did it again and it was 90-something degrees in the house. I had to call back and the guy said, Well, I can't find out what's wrong with it. It must be internal, because it had clicked on.” And so he left, and somebody came back because the unit did it again five times. For the whole month of July, leading into August, I was without air. I'm spending money and my electric bill doubled.

    The guy from May Heating and Air said, “Oh, it's antifreeze.” I said. “That's funny. You all been out here four times.” And he's like, “It’s antifreeze now.” Okay, so I paid him an additional $119 to put antifreeze in it. The guy from C&C who actually fixed it had to take antifreeze out. He said it's over antifreeze in there and I just paid the week before to get antifreeze. C&C was amazing. The tech told me what the problem was. The AC came on and the tech waited a minute. When he heard it click, he went back in there. He said the other tech put the motor on but they didn't do something with it. So, it was burnt and it couldn't work.

    I was frustrated with American Home Shield. In Texas, I had no problem with them. This time, I called and I could not really understand the lady rep or she couldn't understand me. I wanted somebody to be a little bit more sympathetic. When I told her, I said, “Hey, they just left and it's about to be the weekend. And I've been here for three weeks with no air. I had to leave.” And she was like, “Well, we have to wait 48 hours before we could even schedule them to come.” I said, “What? It's 90 degrees.” She said, "We have to wait and give May Heating and Air another chance.". That was frustrating for me to have to do that twice. I had to go speak to a supervisor.

    A couple of times, I had to cancel service but when I looked at my statement, it looked like I was charged for both of those. So then, I called American Home Shield. They said they'd have someone call me, but no one ever called me. I'm thinking that it got cancelled. I didn't remember seeing it on my credit card. So, I'm kind of confused. On my last service, I didn't realize for my pool that the pool pump is covered to be fixed but not replaced. I had had this pump serviced now about three times. I’ve been paying for it. I should have just bought a new one. They sent me some paperwork on that as to why I can’t get a new one. Now, I’m a few hundred deep into fixing it, and I have to go and buy a new one. I should have never done that. It's not so great with it so far.

    Other than that, everyone that I’ve had out for service has been great. It’s just a big company. So, it’s a little tricky. When I call, some of the people may not have English as a first language. So, sometimes, that makes it tricky. I just figured out, for the serviceman that’s coming tomorrow, how I can make an appointment online. It was really easy. So, I’m gonna do it that way from now on because calling in, sometimes there’s a bit of a language barrier. It said that I was being charged $100, and then I got another email that says there'll be no charge because the same thing had been fixed on the pool within the last 30 days.

    I had two services with American Home Shield in the last two weeks. One of them was fine. With the other one, my tenant is the one that they're dealing with directly. I pay $100 for each request that I put in. With the air conditioning, the liquid goes down and I have to replace it, and they pay just $10 out of 160. So, it doesn't help much. On the latest work for the air conditioner, the person who came was a good guy. He was very diligent about his work. He was patient, and explained nicely what was going on. I was happy with that.

He was worried that the pilot element would go out so he rearranged his schedule to get us in the next day to put that hot water heater in. That was really great.

    Someone came out a little over a week after I submitted a claim. He was not able to remedy the issue with my refrigerator. Kasey's Appliance came out next but they weren't able to remedy the issue either. They had the same diagnosis. American Home Shield sent someone else out here and they came over yesterday. They let American Home Shield know the same thing.

    Before the third tech came over, I was telling American Home Shield that the first two gentlemen that came were already saying that the refrigerator was not repairable. The second one was also saying they can repair the seal system if the home warranty wants them to repair it. However, because the refrigerator is almost 15 years old, it's not worth repairing. I talked to two supervisors at American Home Shield and instead of them even sending the same company back, they sent another company and they say the same thing. The tech tried to repair it but whatever he was doing didn't work. I'm waiting to hear from the home warranty and I'm going on a month now.

    Another thing was I needed to make sure my policy with American Home Shield was not automatically renewed because I received an email from them saying, "Your policy will be automatically renewed." I called to make them aware not to renew my policy. After a lot of conversation with the representative, they finally transferred me to an individual who told me that she could not put that on the computer. I have to wait 60 days prior to renewal and that wouldn't be until May 1st of next year. I was not very happy with that. That's not right and they're setting up the consumer so they forget to call 60 days prior. I consider that to be a fraudulent activity.

    It's hard to get in contact with anybody in American Home Shield because you have one number to call and that number automatically takes you to a representative. The representative is the same person that you call for your ticket for whatever problem that you have. They are trained to talk to you and try to resolve this problem themselves. You're consistently bantering back and forth with them then they'll put you on hold, come back and say they can't get their supervisor. It took me more than one time until I finally got to a young lady named Porsche and she was the one that told me that I have to wait 60 days prior.

    The air conditioner stopped working and was blowing hot air. Rather than replacing the whole thing, which you can buy a new air conditioner at Home Depot for about $3,000 to $4,000, Honesty Mechanical, the assigned contractor, wanted $3,547 to rebuild it and that 3,547 was coming out of my pocket. They showed up in a timely manner but their price was way too high. I told AHS that I wanted a second opinion and the gentleman that I spoke to was a little hard to understand, but he was extraordinarily good. He scheduled the second opinion company to come out and they said it was $1,600 out of my pocket. I am not saying that anyone is trying to screw anyone else over, but maybe they are.

    This other company also called me back and said that with American Home Shield, you have to repair an appliance even if it is over 20 years old. He said there was the part that they could modify that would then go on our air conditioner and make it work. They said that the only way that you get a whole new air conditioner is if there's no way to repair the old one. As years go by, people come up with new parts and pieces that can be generic and fit all sorts of different things. So, by American Home Shield requirements, the techs are required to repair an appliance instead of replacing it. That is really stupid because the new parts will be too strong for the old motors. So then the old motor’s going to die and then I'm going to have to pay to update the old motor as well. It's a vicious cycle.

    In the end, I decided that I'm going to have to repair the ACs because unfortunately, without American Home Shield covering a replacement, it's going to be about $17,000 to replace the two units on the one home. So the repairs are going to be about 2,000 to 3,000 with the other company and I'm just going to have to pay for that.

    I also have a broken down refrigerator and AHS is giving me enough money that I'm going to be able to go out and get myself a brand new refrigerator. They've also done that with dishwashers and several other different things. But when I had three air conditioners die all at the same time, they don't want to replace an air conditioner. They lie when they get you to sign up and say that the air conditioners will be covered. It turns out that they're only covered if you agree to pay out of pocket to get them modified. They're old air conditioners that still use Freon and now Freon is outlawed. So, you automatically have to change the air conditioners to a new type of air conditioner. So why not just replace the whole thing instead of making you pay almost as much as what you would pay to buy a new one over at Home Depot or Lowe's. It's ridiculous.

We had water coming from a backed up drain behind our washing machine under a wood floor and then seeping through it. The tech came out twice. The second time, he thoroughly snaked it. It seems like the snaking procedure he did solved the problem. The drain appears to be cleared now.

    I like that we have American Home Shield available because I don't know what we would have done on some appliances if we didn't have some type of policy. I'm satisfied with the work that we've gotten done. We're getting value for what we pay. It's just the communications network is really miserable. We're getting call centers overseas where there's a big time lag. Then there's a real communications breakdown between Home Shield and some of the vendors they use. On some of the calls, we've had to wait a week and then they get rescheduled. There's no one to communicate with in between because some of the vendors they use are part of the old Sears network. There's no number you can call directly to reach anyone. It goes to another call center in some other part of the world. It doesn't mean that you don't get service.

They couldn't determine what exactly made the water overflow but thought it might be an issue with some grease and recommended I run hot water periodically through the drain to mellow out any grease that could be in there.

I've also had them come out to replace a part of my stove and oven. They're always on top, especially if it's something pertaining to heating or cooling. They come out as quick as they possibly can because they understand the urgency due to the weather.

    For my plumbing, I've had the worst experience ever. I've had one plumber come out to me and he fixed the toilet and sink in my bedroom but he was not able to fix the kitchen sink because he didn't have all of the parts. He's supposed to come back. I've called AHS numerous times and paid twice for a plumbing service. I still have a leaky sink that no one has come back out to completely fix and I have ruined the underneath of my kitchen sink. Eventually, I'm going to have to replace it. I also have mildew and mold on the walls underneath my sink.

I like the fact that I can call them, they send an electrician out, and I only pay my deductible. The parts and labor are covered. That's a big plus in my book. We were recently having an issue. It turned out to be an electrical issue. We got an electric dryer and we thought the dryer wasn't heating to dry the clothes. But it turned out to be it was a breaker that needed replacing. The representatives that came out were very helpful. The only complaint is it took about five days before they got somebody out.

    When you get a service through AHS, it takes longer because you have to go through them, then they have to call somebody in your area. When the air conditioner shut off, we submitted a claim an the techs came out. They said it was a fan and the repair took four days. It took a little longer than I would have liked because it was so hot. At first, they came out and they had the wrong part. Then we got another one and they put it in. After that, we flipped a breaker and the AC came back on.

    My AC wasn’t working right one day. So I called in a claim for that and the contractor came out a couple of days later. But the AC was working properly by then. It was just one day that it didn't work. When they came out, they checked the entire system over, and they were fantastic.

    The AC was turning on, but it was not cooling. The tech responded quickly to our request. He was at my home the same day I opened the claim, which was great. He was able to repair it. He was also very detailed. He inspected all the components on the air outlet. And he was professional and answered all of our questions. The service was great.

    I know it's not part of American Home Shield's policy but some recommendations for ac preventive maintenance would be great. Because instead of waiting until the AC is broken, maybe we can also do something in advance to prevent the disruption. But I like that as a customer, I can have access to a larger network of providers. Also, I feel more secure to open the door of my house to someone coming in because it’s someone that's coming through American Home Shield and not a stranger. I also have a confidence that whoever is working on the repairs is going to do a good job because they are somehow under the umbrella of a larger company.

    I had a problem with an oven, which was an electric stove, and I had a problem with a ceiling fan. I submitted a claim with AHS for both and I learned that they should be separate. But if you're having two electrical problems, why would they be separate? It doesn't make a lot of sense. But for the most part, I haven't had any complaints with American Home Shield because they seem to stand by their advertisement and philosophy that if they can't fix something, they'll replace it.

    Everything was resolved on my electrical issues but we had to go back and forth and I had to end up coming out of my pocket to finish what I wanted. I understand when they said they were going to give me the basics but my thing is, as a consumer and I have a product that go bad, I should be given the option of having the same thing or something pretty close to what I had go bad. For the ceiling fan, they only authorized the repairman X amount of dollars to put back a basic fan. The first repairman opted out and they had to send another one out here. And the problem was, he said his organization had gotten to the point where they didn't like always having to get into it with the customer because the customers stayed ahead. He said he should be able to get it, which I agree should be the fact, but American Home Shield didn't see it that way.

    I had two claims with American Home Shield. I had my stove looked at and I had the garage door opener. The experience I had with technician who came for my stove was very ugly. He wouldn’t give me the opportunity to tell him exactly what was going on with my stove. He said that he couldn’t find anything wrong with the appliance so I asked for a second opinion. The second company that came out found what was wrong.

    It was the same thing on my garage door opener. The first guy that came out there said that the board on the opener was bad. Apparently, that guy quit. Another guy from that same company came out and said that my board has gone up because my garage doors were unleveled, which was not true. I asked for a second opinion and the next company that came out replaced the board. I wouldn’t be without American Home Shield. Their service went smoothly, except for the contractors. But that worked itself out. I also like the idea that you can do claims online.

    We put in a claim for our refrigerator over 3 months ago. Service came and said we needed two new control panels (GE Monogram). AHS only approved one. Refrigerator still not working properly, service came out again and said the other panel needed to be replaced. Waited another month only to hear they were unable to obtain the part. Called AHS, they said they would send out the tech to take our panel out and refurbish. Okay with us because we just want our fridge to be fixed. Fast forward another two weeks. Nothing. No work from service, no word from AHS. We called yet again. They said they would give us $400 which would be the cost to refurbish. Of course we said no to their measly check and said just refurbish the part. Still waiting....no one has come out to get the part from our fridge to refurbish, AHS said the service people need to call us, the service people say AHS needs to call them (which apparently they haven't).

    Going on month 4 without a fridge at this point. Still no appointment. No calls. We have had to call both the service people and AHS several painful times to get this situation resolved, to no avail. My conclusion at this point is that AHS will continue with this charade for as long as they want without having to replace what their contracted rate is for this appliance. Unacceptable. Absolutely 100% unacceptable. Very unhappy customer. Exactly how long do we wait before they tell us they can't fix the appliance and they will just replace it as advertised? I'll answer that, FOREVER.

    We had work on a furnace and on a fridge in two different places. It's very difficult to get through American Home Shield every single time. It's a long wait and when you get someone, it's a day before anybody calls you back to say that they assigned you to someone. Then you got to wait for that company they signed you to to call you back. Sometimes, it's a two, three-day process.

    We've experienced some contractors that have been good. The ones who worked on the HVAC have been horrible. We call American Home Shield if we have an issue with any of the contractors and they listen, but we don't see a change. They give the standard language, but I don't see anything. They call me and say, "I apologize," or, "I'm gonna give you back some of your money because you had to wait." I've been on this plan for five or more years because I was hoping that it would save me money in the long run. But a friend of mine told me about the service that they were getting from Amazon. It's cheaper and it sounds like they've had much better experiences. I'm seriously considering that one.

    Our central air conditioner wouldn't cool. AHS didn't have an app for the phone, so I had to get on the website. It was easy to get on it, but once you submitted your claim, it was like it went into a big black tunnel. There was very little to no communication. For instance, the website didn't give me a status if the claim was opened or assigned or pending review. At first it said it was open, then it said it was assigned to a vendor, and it was closed the next day.

    So I had to call and I got somebody who couldn't speak English. I had a really hard time understanding an accent and when I was telling them that the website said my claim was closed, they said it wasn't. When we got that straightened out, they sent in a text message and an email that said my claim was assigned to Foxcroft and that if I didn't hear from them within 24 hours, I should call them. So when I didn't hear from them, I had to call and left a message. But I didn't hear back from them for 24 hours. I called them again, left another message, and they finally called back. They said they were not going to be able to get here for these many days and they were difficult from the get-go. So it was just a back and forth until I got their tech here.

    Their guy said I was out of Freon and that he was going to turn the thing back in but AHS wouldn't get back with me. He said that if he turned it in that day, it was going to be four months before the whole thing got resolved. We asked him about the Home Shield company and he was telling us that if it was him, he wouldn't pay for the service. He gave us a really bad vibe. This Foxcroft company also went to my mom's house and they told her the same thing. So, we thought that AHS was a scam and I called them to cancel. But they bounced me right over to the retention group. The lady asked what could she do to keep me as a customer and again I was talking to somebody who had poor English so it was difficult for me.

    She told me that she would send someone else out here for a second opinion. But I told her that those people were not coming back to my house because I didn't trust them and I was not paying a $125 call out fee. I already paid that and after that Foxcroft company went to the home warranty people, they came back and said the issues were preexisting conditions. So, I asked the retention lady to explain to me what part of any claim was not going to be a preexisting condition. My house is 20 years old, so if I submit a claim that my refrigerator that doesn't work, they're going to send a contractor out here and every single time he's going to say it's a preexisting condition because it's old. I haggled with them and she admitted that if an appliance is old, the issue is preexisting. So asked her what was the point of me continuing to keep my plan with American Home Shield.

    She then told me that they could send someone out and they wouldn't charge me the $125 unless that contractor said the same thing. At that point, I was already $500 in with AHS but I decided to go with that. She also told told me that she had had so many customer calls about Foxcroft and that they were no longer an approved contractor with Home Shield. But within 15 minutes of hanging up with her, I got back online to see if she had created my ticket to send somebody else out and she did. But it still went to Foxcroft. I had to call again, got a different person, and told him that I did not want those people in my house. I also told him that the lady I talked to before said they were a non-approved vendor anymore but he said that was not true. So she lied to me.

    Then, my claim was assigned to a new contractor by the name of Frog Pro. They got back with me within 24 hours and were at my house within two days. They told me it wasn't a preexisting condition, that the evaporator coil there had a leak which was why it lost all of the Freon. They said they were going to go back to the Home Shield people and tell them what they found. They told me that it could either be fixed or it could be replaced because of its age. These people took care of me. They also went right over to my mom's house, who was 80 and is a little bit disabled, and they took care of her, too. They explained it all to her and they were wonderful. After that, American Home Shield confirmed that we could have our units repaired for this much or they'd replace them for this much. We decided which way we were going to go and got Frog Pro on the phone with us. They are going to be at our house tomorrow and my mom's on Monday.

    I've had three different things come up since I have signed up with American Home Shield. The last one was very good but the first two were very bad. I told myself that on the third one with the pool, if it wouldn't go according to how I felt it satisfied me as the customer, I was gonna eliminate it since it was not worth me paying the $50 something a month. Recently, my pool pump went out. I added the extra coverage for that just to have it. The company we used called me right away. As soon as I hung up, within a half an hour, the guy called. He came out, answered all my questions and fixed everything. I have a job where I live on the road. I have to have people to be able to go in there when I'm not home and be able to take care of things. That was a very good experience.

    My very first attempt to use American Home Shield was over a year ago where I had a garage door problem. They said, "Give us 24 hours, we'll contact you.” I said, “I can't wait 24 hours. My car is stuck in the garage, and I can't get my door open. I gotta catch a plane." My wife also had to get to work. I told them I had a door company that could come out right then and at least get my car out. That wasn't good enough. I realized that we need to use the people that signed up with American Home Shield but there could be a clause that says to waive that a little bit in case of emergency. I ended up paying for that myself. That bill came to 350 bucks. It bothers me that there's not a little more flexibility in the program.

    The next thing that happened was my home air conditioning. My air conditioner is not that old. It was about seven years old. But when you live in Florida, you're using it all the time. In Florida, the average lifespan of an air conditioner is seven to nine years before you have to start replacing major things. What American Home Shield wanted to do was send somebody out and replace the parts. I was being told the parts were gonna take somewhere between 10 to 13 days. I couldn't have a 95-degree weather and wait for these parts to come in. I got my person who could come out right then. It ended up that I foot the bill for $6,000 because I needed a whole new air conditioning unit. American Home Shield didn't pay for it because they wanted to wait for their guys to come out, take two or three major parts totally out of there that would have cost probably $3,000 and wait 10 days for them to come back.

    We told American Home Shield that we are going to be out of the country from May to July. We need that to be repaired before we leave. They said, “We are going to try to do our best.” But he didn’t repair that. Before we left, the tech told my daughter that he wasn’t going to repair it because American Home Shield didn't approve.

    If we wanted to repair it, we had to pay $250. Because if he tried to fix it, if it's something that's going to be broken more, American Home Shield is not going to be responsible for that. So we had to pay. I said, "I am not going to pay in advance. When I come back here, I am going to call America Home Shield." When we came back on July 22nd, we called American Home Shield.

That leak has destroyed a quarter of my living room wood floor, all of my kitchen floor and kitchen counter.

    I like American Home Shield because you know that you're getting qualified technicians. I also find the service better now than when I had it. The response time is good and so are the technicians. This last one, I had to pay out of pocket for something that wasn't covered. But the plumber was excellent. I would recommend American Home Shield to my friends and relatives. The plan is affordable for me and so is the service fee. I've had six technicians come out and I'm pleased with the service. My house is more than 37 years old and I have things in it that’s breaking. I feel better especially now that I'm retired and on a fixed income because I have the home warranty.

    Water wouldn't stop running in my washing machine. So, it kept filling up the machine. The doors would bust open and flood the laundry room and other parts of the house. The process with American Home Shield took a little while because they were backed up but it wasn't horrible. It took two weeks for a technician to come. Once he came, he did a diagnosis and knew exactly what was going on. He needed to order a part and once that came in, we had to wait another couple of weeks for him to change it out. He did that pretty quickly.

    I had another claim for my AC that was not cooling. That went well. It got flushed and little maintenance things got done. Having AHS gives me peace of mind that all my appliances are covered. I've never had an issue that wasn't resolved. I'm satisfied. Everybody's been nice and they do what they need to do.

    AHS has professional people who are coming out and fixing the item. Something is broken with my dishwasher and that flooded out my floors. GE looked at it and ordered a part. I'm still working with them to come back and fix it. Because of the flood, I was trying to find the leak underneath the sink. There, the faucet was broken and that caused it to leak.

    The air conditioner was not coming on. My son called American Home Shield and submitted a claim that the air conditioning was out. When the air conditioning guy came out the first time, he went upstairs, hit the breaker. The air conditioning came on. It worked for two hours and went off again. He thought that it might trip again, and that they would call for an electrician. When the electrician came out two days later, he hit that same button again, came on. Before he could leave, it was back off. I just called them back this time because it's not on again. And he would answer once I called them back. He called me to let me know he was there. I talked with him while he was talking to my son. But soon as he left the house, he never returned the call again. The air conditioning guy came today and said that all the electrician needed to do was change the condenser. The electrician said that he put a whole new breaker in there. But it's still not working.

    The very first claim that we did was with our pool. The guy said that it wasn't covered, but it should be and American Home Shield ended up covering it. Recently, my air conditioner stopped blowing cold air, and we had a service assigned to us at first, but then that company couldn't come out quickly enough. We asked if we could move it and American Home Shield moved it to a different company, which was great. That company came out, and we thought the problem was fixed. I received a survey and gave them 5 stars, then later in the day, my air conditioner stopped working again.

    We had to call them back, and they couldn't come back out for a few days. That was a bummer because we were out of air conditioning for five days in Las Vegas in the middle of summer, but that wasn't really to do with American Home Shield. It was more with the company. A few weeks prior, we had the same problem with one other air conditioner, because we have two units, and that went perfect. The people came out, fixed it, left, and everything was good. Some stuff, I understand, is not as urgent as others, but sometimes, it seems like it takes a long time to get people out. I realize the vendors that American Home Shield assigns have other customers, but for an air conditioning issue, you gotta fix that right away, especially if it's in the middle of summer.

    One of the eyes of my stove went out and American Home Shield sent out LA Appliance. A guy came and he wired my stove but he put the eye back in and the stove caught fire. I called the company back to have them fix it. One guy said the stove couldn't be fixed and it had to be replaced. I tried to let the company know what was going on because they were taking a long time. I tried to file a complaint with the supervisor but the lady there would never speak to the supervisor. She was unbelievable. I kept getting the runaround and I couldn't ever speak to anybody above that lady. Every time I called, I kept getting her and she was very rude. I tried to get a supervisor's name and number from the technician that came out and he didn't give me one.

    I told American Home Shield about what happened and it’s noted on my contract to never send LA Appliance to my home again because I don't want to deal with them. Even if I have to wait a little longer, that would still be fine. That aside, the other contractor that American Home shield sent out for my claim was very good. They were very nice and courteous.

    It was efficient as far as getting my order placed, but it's all automated, which some people prefer that more than others. But it took close to two weeks before I was able to get a technician out here. We were fortunate in the sense that the air conditioner was still functioning, but there was a clog in the water drainage hose that was not right and caused some small issues. But if the air conditioner broke, we would have been sitting for almost two weeks with no air. American Home Shield was four days later than normal than what was normally scheduled was because they had some technician shortage. But once the guy came out, he was very good.

    I received a text message yesterday from AHS saying that they tried to run my debit card for this month's payment and that it wouldn't go through because my card on file was no longer good. So, once a year, it seems like the debit card has to be replaced. That's the problem they ran into for renewing. I called them last night and I was on hold for 40 minutes but nobody ever answered.

    American Home Shield is great up until you have a claim. I've been dealing with them all day and I’m kinda frustrated about it. I came back from a long trip and the AC wasn't working. The contractor came out on a Friday and fixed it. It worked all weekend. Then they came back and said, “Well, we needed to fix it with the permanent part, not the temporary part.” I told them that everything was working fine. They said, “Yeah. But that's short term. We want long term.” So they went back in and replaced it Monday. But it quit working.

    I had to do a recall with American Home Shield. The contractor came back out and said that the compressor was shot and that they needed $1,385 to replace the compressor in a 26-year-old system. American Home Shield said that I could do that or they would give me $920 cash-out and I could get my own person. I asked them, “Well, what part are you paying?” They said they couldn't disclose it. It didn't make sense to me. They won't do the replacement. I told them that their advertisement said, “If it breaks down, we will replace it.” That was what they sold me on and that's why I'm paying that monthly fee of $67 a month.

    When I called their contractor back and asked, “Well, what are you replacing it with?” I wanted to find out if it’s a Bryant or something else. They said that American Home Shield was not covering that and that they were just covering the compressor only. They said most of the 1,385 is for the Freon because American Home Shield is going to be paying $10 per pound of the Freon. But it costs $225 a pound. So off the bat, it’s almost $1,000 just in Freon and then they're gonna put a new compressor in a 26-year-old system. It doesn't make sense to me.

    I had somebody come out for a second opinion. I paid them to make sure I'm not getting ripped off here. The tech came out and said it was shot. He said, “Well, I’d put a Bryant in it. But you have a 26-year-old unit. You have to replace it all.” He said it was $3,000, which I thought was reasonable because he was doing the downstairs and the furnace coils.

    The technician was good and thorough. He showed my husband what he was doing wrong with putting the vinegar down the hose. He also showed what the problem was. The air conditioner was shutting off and then coming back on was due to the fact that the overflow was too high and water was overflowing and not running out right. He repaired that for us. Everything is operating beautifully now and we have air. Living in Florida, you have to have air. We've had American Home Shield forever.

This last time around, they wanted to repair a compressor instead of replacing it. It was gonna cost me $1,600 in Freon. I said, “Forget it. I'll just go ahead and buy a new unit.”

    The contractors that come out suck as well. They say they fix stuff. But when you call them back, it's not fixed. Like my garbage disposal. They fixed it twice. Replaced it. I didn't know what they were doing but it's still not working. It works for a little while, and the next thing I know, I gotta call them again. For the garage door, the guy came out and fixed it. Now I'm having a hard time trying to reprogram the garage door opener. I don't know what's going on with that.

    The contractor was good. Although, they weren’t willing to fix the problem. But I don't blame that on them because my unit was under warranty. It was a brand new unit. So they didn't want to touch it because it was under warranty, which is good. But they were on time. They showed up as they said. Their service was great.

    American Home Shield sent Ace Appliance for a refrigerator. It turned out that there was a broken gasket in the compressor line. The technician came out, diagnosed the problem pretty quickly and repaired it in about 30 minutes. He added some Freon as well since some of it had leaked out. We hadn't had any issues since.

    I called over the phone when I did the claim. I didn't have any issue with scheduling. They were pretty prompt. I spoke with somebody right away. Also, they had a pretty quick turnaround time. From the time I called them, they scheduled somebody the following week and they got somebody here on the day they said they were going to.
