    So far, we are enjoying American Home Shield's services well. But the two or three small issues that we had, the technicians that they scheduled to come out came within a reasonable time frame and resolved it without having to come back out as of yet. There was a leaking that was hard to find in the kitchen sink. And it was a crack in the pipe, the tech said, right where they connect with each other. So, he said he had to replace either a piece of the pipe or the screw nut type of bolt. I think it was like a bolt on the pipe, the plumbing pipe. And that resolved that leaking issue.

    The second piece was the leaking pipe that carries all of the water through the basement from all over the shower, toilet, sinks, and carries all the water, and toilet water as well, through one of the main big pipes that goes to the laundry room and out of the house. It was leaking in the laundry room. So, he came and put some sort of glue seal on it to keep it from leaking. He said the sealant that was already on it was corroded and ate away from over the years. So, he cleaned it out good and put in some other type of glue sealant. I haven't had a leak since. So, that's good. He told me to keep watching it, though.

    The third ticket that I had to submit through AHS was for the air conditioner. The tech came out the same day as the plumber that looked for the pipe in the laundry room with the sealant that he put on. That technician who came out for the air conditioner said that we had a Freon leak. And he said it was bad, but he put the Freon in there for me, three pounds of it. I paid him for that. And I thank AHS for at least covering $10 per pound. It wasn’t a lot, but it was helpful, so I’m thankful of that. On top of that, he put in some sort of other liquid to fill up whatever cracks in the lines were for the AC to stop the leak. So far, it’s holding up. It has been a full two weeks. And I haven't had to run the AC much but two days since he came out, but it seems like it’s gonna hold up. I’m pleased with the services. I don't know what to do when a pipe leaking and my AC doesn't work. So, I’m happy with the AC. It’s hot. They jumped right on it and got it working.

    When I called American Home Shield, I asked them about the contractors that they use. They branch out a little further so I like that. They pool contractors other than just the local contractors I was familiar with. I had done some research for a while online and read their reviews. Their process is easy from the start to finish, and everything can be done online. So I like the ease of that.

    The contractor gave me a call and said that they would be coming to install my cooktop. The first time they came out, the tech was unaware that the gas line wasn't with the original order. So he asked me if I wanted him to just put the cooktop on and come back. I was in no big hurry. So he placed an order for the gas line and then he was back in a day. He spent about 30 minutes in here and ended up everything got going. The cooktop works fine.

    The tech was funny. He's kind of young but he was professional. He gave me a crazy call. He let me know what the problem was. When a problem arose, he told me what the problem was and explained that he would get it taken care of. Then he came right back and gave me a call again and let me know he was on his way. He came in and got the job done. He explained to me what he had done, and got my signature and he was on his way.

    My garbage disposal was dripping water and flooding my cabinet. Kelly's Plumbing, the service company, scheduled the service immediately. I did the claim to American Home Shield the night before, the next morning I was scheduled, and the following day, they had sent somebody out. So, it was a fairly quick turnaround. Kelly's Plumbing was great. They were prompt. Their app was great. They let us know when they were coming. There was a tracker to let us know their progress. They came through the park, which was kind of a halt, but the tech was in and out within 15 minutes.

    The contractor came out and did an AC tune-up. Two days later, my AC went out. American Home Shield sent somebody out to fix it and said they waived the fee because they didn't know if the guy that they sent out broke something. But they keep sending me letters saying that I owe them $100 when I've had two supervisors tell me that it was taken care of, no charge. Other than that, R Harris AC and Heating was great. They were very helpful, courteous, super knowledgeable. That guy was awesome.

    With American Home Shield, I can get a reasonably priced repair on some of the main parts of my house that may or may not be under warranty anymore with relative ease. I've used it so far for an issue with my dryer. One of the parts inside broke that I would never have figured out. The tech replaced it then and there. I also got the house rekeyed and that was really nice and quick.

    Most recently, we started having an issue with the toilet running and the plumber from Sirius came within a few days. It was convenient and he fixed the issue with the toilet pretty easily. He also fixed an issue with our outside faucet, which needed a little bit of extra elbow grease to pull off a part. We had another issue with our bathroom sink, where we weren't using the hot water on one side of the sink because the faucet would leak. He took a look at it and figured out what the problem was. Unfortunately, the part necessary to fix it had to be ordered and they had it shipped. They're going to call us back to have it installed and I’ve been waiting for a little over a week now. He said it would be one to two weeks before the part comes in.

    My last claim was for my washer and they gave me the option to get a replacement, which I liked. However, I was told the wrong information that I was getting one in three to five business days. It's been since June 6th and today is June 15th. It has only shipped and I don't have an estimated delivery. I've been without a washer for three weeks, which has been very inconvenient, and I've been having to spend money to go to the laundromat. Other than that, the contractor was good. Also, I feel like the service from AHS has been beneficial.

    I've used American Home Shield several times. So far, so good. I like the timeliness of the service. I call the 1-800 number. I make a few comments as to what my problem is. The system seems to work pretty well. If it doesn't identify the problem without talking to anyone, there is a feature to let me talk to someone. I used the home warranty when one of the mechanisms inside the toilet was running water and I couldn't get it to stop running. Someone from Sewer Medic came and he was knowledgeable. He took care of my problem. I also had an air conditioning problem a couple of times and the home warranty took care of that for me. There was also a time I had a problem with my hot water tank and water leaking in my garage. American Home Shield had to replace both of those and I had to pay out of pocket. My deductible is now 125 and that's the second increase.

The tech took everything apart and then put everything back together. The tech said the fuse for my unit is no longer being made being it's an older model. He said he would be in contact with me.

    The premiums are real high and sometimes I'm left wondering if I'm nearly getting my money's worth. Also, there's always the concern that they would deny things that I thought were covered. I had a pool heater that the warranty service covers and it broke down but they refused to fix it saying that it is a saltwater treatment. They made up all kinds of reasonings and they refused to do it. This recent time I had a claim was fine. There was a switch in the heater that had a blown fuse and Watertight Pool and Spa came out for that. But one of these days, I'm gonna cancel the warranty. I was doing the math between the premium I'm paying every month plus the fact that every time I have to call somebody is another $100. I'm left wondering if I can just set aside that money in an account and then use that to pay for any things that come up. I'll come out cheaper on the other side.

    The main capacitor on my air conditioner keeps popping. This is the fourth time I've had to open up a job order for the contractor to come out and have somebody refix it. So I told American Home Shield, "Well, it's weird because if the capacitor keeps blowing up means there's something else wrong with the system that’s blowing that capacitor.” Right? But they don't want to do anything else to send somebody else out there to troubleshoot the air conditioner system to see what's wrong with it.

    The actual external air conditioner unit is bad. I expressed my not being pleased with them AHS ast week when I found out that they would just put another capacitor in it. The guy got attitude with me and said, "Well, if you read your contract, it's in the contract that we're just gonna keep replacing the part." And I said, "No. That's not what the contract says." And he stopped typing to me because I was talking on the chat. So, I'm not pleased with them. My house is in Florida, they only use one air conditioner repair company. So my tenant had to wait. The temperature is well into the 90s now and my tenant had to wait a week for them to come out and to fix the air conditioner again. They haven't even come out there. They're not going to come out until Tuesday, until tomorrow, so the 7th.

    I can go to Home Depot. I went and looked, the capacitor for the air conditioner is 10 bucks. And every time they send somebody out, I have to pay $100. So it would be beneficial if they actually did what they were supposed to do and said, "Okay. Well, there's a bigger issue here with the air conditioner 'cause the same part keeps breaking." And they did some research about whether the AC unit was bad. But they're not even doing that. And like I told the guys that AHS just goes with the lowest bidder.

    The dishwasher had a broken panel. That was what the tech reported to American Home Shield. And they decided it was more cost efficient to just replace the refrigerator. They initially tried to solve the radiator. It was a fan in the back. And it was supposed to cool down this big compressor that cools the refrigerator. So, it was not functioning for some time. That led to the compressor being broken or failing a bit.

    The tech came in, he replaced the fan and the board on the refrigerator in an attempt to solve the issue with the compressor. He did that and weeks went by and I noticed that the issue remained with the refrigerator. Which is the freezer would melt down and refreeze again. So, he came back to try to investigate it. And he identified that there was something wrong with the compressor. You can hear it. It just was constantly running, struggling, it sounds, to turn on and turn off. And it's extremely hot to the touch.

    My wife and I got sick because we had some food that was in there, some fish, and we ate it after it might have defrosted and refroze. That was what prompted us. And we can see it in the ice cube tray. The ice would melt and freeze down. After that, they found that it was better to change the refrigerator because that whole thing, the compressor, is a closed system in the refrigerator.

    I have a new compressor coming in the mail tomorrow or the next day. I had some trouble with ordering one because all of them were sold out on Americaqn Home Shield's website. So, they gave me some kind of exemption or something to order from Lowe's or take the cash. Lowe's didn't have any that fit. My space in the kitchen is 32 inches and the norm now is 33. So it was hard to find a specific one that would fit. So, I'm just waiting for an official receipt from Home Depot. I tried it yesterday, and it wouldn't load, so I could send AHS the claim and they would pay out the approved amount. That is where I'm at right now. The receipt will load after the delivery. But I'm just waiting for that. AHS has been great. All the staff is very responsive. I've been extremely happy. I've never had home insurance before. But I see the value in it. And I'm going to continue it.

    We came home. The AC wasn't working. We called American Home Shield and told them what the issue was. They said that somebody would be contacting us within 24 hours and they did. The company called me on Memorial Day, said that they wouldn't be able to come out because they were so busy. I asked them, if they had a cancellation or if they had extra time today, to go ahead and put us on the list. Lo and behold, they were able to come out that same day and get us all fixed up. They had everything available on the truck and it only took them 45 minutes. It was a great experience.

    I like American Home Shield a lot. They are the best. They respond very quickly. They don't leave us hanging, wondering if the ticket’s okay out there. I also like the contractors that they use. My recent claim for plumbing went well. It didn't end up being anything more than my washing machine and the plumber couldn't do anything with it. But he was very prompt and quick. However, sometimes the service charges are more than they need to be. I wish it could be 50 then pay up to 100. I'm also paying the monthly fee. For the last two visits, the service would have been less than that had I just called them out. But you run the risk if it’s something more and you haven't paid the 100.

    I call American Home Shield when there's an issue. So far, the service has been pretty good and they've been pretty quick. We had two issues and used the warranty. Our AC and our ice machine were acting up within days of each other. The problem was somehow resolved on its own before the techs came and serviced the units. The guy was like, “I'm sorry for coming out for no reason, but everything's fine.” We're still unsure what it was. For our AC, it might have been the filter because we changed the filter. Our house wasn’t cooling. I just turned off the entire unit and it was fixed. The tech that came was polite and he checked everything twice to make sure he wasn't missing anything. That was great.

    For the ice machine, it was the same guy who came and fixed it before that showed up. He fixed the unit and it's great. Somehow, a whole bunch of ice had gotten caked up in the back of the machine. The grinding thing wasn't working because there was too much ice and it was too hard. The guy took that away. He said there was something wrong with how it was set in the refrigerator or installed. He tried his best to fix it and make sure it was in the right position. It worked for a little bit then it stopped working. He just came to replace the entire unit. We were prepared that it might come to that. He was great and it was very quick.

    I decided to get the warranty because I already had to replace all the plumbing and electrical in the house. I got tired of paying $10,000, and I said, "Well, let me get a Home Shield," my brother said it's good to have a good peace of mind. If you got a problem, they're really good. But some stuff they do great with, and other things like AC, it's pricier and it seems like they don't want to help me out and take care of me.

    My garbage disposal quit working. I paid the $100, the contractor came out and looked at it. He said, "This is not a plumbing issue. There's nothing wrong with the garbage disposal. You need to send out an electrician." He said, "It's either your electrical that's plugged into it." It was connected to a light switch. "Or it's the light switch." He contacted American Home Shield and said, "This is not a plumber issue. You need to send out an electrician." And they sent out an electrician. Within the next day, the electrician came out, found out that the light switch was bad. The electrician was fantastic. He fixed it within five minutes. I had a nice conversation with him. He replaced the light switch and it works great now.

    The air conditioner guys, on the other hand, I've been having a ton of problems with. My AC hasn't been working since May 24th and I also used my AHS and it has been an absolute nightmare. I'm still without air and it's the hottest two weeks of the year right now. I put the claim in on the 24th, the contractor came out on the 27th. The guy said that I had a small leak and put some Freon in it and he replaced a small, very cheap part. Within an hour, it still wasn't working. So, I called him back and said, "Hey, you need to send that guy back out. My air is still not working." They took another four days and didn't come out again until the 30th. They took another four days to come out to look at it and there was some sort of valve that was bad inside the air handlers. He came out on that Friday before Memorial Day, said, "I don't know how I missed it, but we'll get this part replaced. Let me get it ordered and I'll be back."

    So, this last Tuesday came rolling around and I called him and I said, "Hey, when are you coming out?" I got little kids and it's 95 degrees in my house. I called them and I said, "Hey, what's going on here? I need to get this fixed. It's so hot. We had to send our kids to their dad's house for a whole weekend because it's so hot." My wife and I had to rent a hotel room because it's so hot for the day. So, I called them yesterday trying to get an idea. They said, "Well, American Home Shield approved the part, but we're waiting 7 to 10 days before we can get it." And I said, "Well, can I pay a shipping fee or something to get it faster? Because we're absolutely dying over here." I've got 10 fans going, we're all sleeping in one room in the basement because it's a bit cooler than upstairs. So, we got four or five fans blowing on everybody.

    We buy ice and put it in buckets in the basement trying to keep the moisture a bit good. I don't know what else to do. When I called ahs the other day, they said, "Well, we're still waiting on the part. You're fourth in line to be taken care of." I said, "I've been waiting since the 24th for y'all to fix this." I'm frustrated because, even when I called AHS for help, they just called them and they said, "Well, we ordered the part. It's going to be 10 days," and that was all they told me.

    There's a place called Corken Steel down here. I can drive across the Bay Bridge and buy the part I need. I just don't know how to put it on. And I can get the part today. That's what I don't understand. There's a store that you can drive down to and pick it up. And I'm going to take a picture of it and I'm gonna go buy the part today and try to find somebody else to fix it for me because they're not going to fix it. I don't know what else to do and I'm not gonna suffer anymore.

    This is America. If I want to buy one-day shipping, I am willing to pay the one-day shipping to get here faster. But they don't even give me that option. They said, "We don't have a way of doing that." I said, "What do you mean?" We have Amazon Prime now practically. They guarantee it within 24 hours. There's no reason why we can't do this with this part. Today, I'm gonna get off work, I'm going to go home and take a picture of that part, I'm going to drive to Corken Steel and buy one of those parts. I'm gonna call this stupid AC company and say, "I have the part you need. You need to come out and fix my stuff." And if they don't come fix my stuff, I won't call AHS again.

    When a customer called them back and said, "Hey, look, it's been a week and a half. I still don't know what's going on," but the actual AC company, the lady hung up on me. She said, "Do you have any comments?" And hung up on me. I even told AHS, "They hung up on me." Because I'm upset. I got little kids and it's hot as hell over here. And I said, "She got mad at me because whatever." I didn't cuss around, but I wasn't very nice because I pay a lot of money. I pay $56 a month to have this service and I pay 100 bucks every time somebody comes out and I have to pay my money upfront. But they would make me wait two weeks to get my part. They get paid upfront but don't do anything about it and just make me wait forever. It should be the other way around.

    It's a 15-year unit. It probably needs to be replaced. But they don't want to replace it. They just want to do little tiny fixes on it. And I'm a little disappointed because I make my payments on time. The lady called me the other day to tell me that I made my payment on time and I said, "I make my payment every month." But some stuff, AHS has done good on.

    The air conditioning wasn't cooling correctly. The contractor called me within 24 hours of me placing the online notification for service. They're friendly in the office. The tech that showed up lives in my community and was pleasant too. I gave him two landmarks and he knew exactly where the house was. He was hands down wonderful.

    We had to reschedule a few times because weather was too cold to run air conditioning. It finally worked out to where he came out on an afternoon and the temperature was 75 degrees, which was perfect for him to run a test. His test revealed that it was low one pound on refrigerant. So, he added refrigerant, a stop leak, a substance. And so far, so good. We just had a thunderstorm come through and the house is holding 75 degrees.

    When I went to renew my contract, I was concerned about the price and in light of the current state of our nation and the fact that I just spent 4.75 a gallon for gasoline, where a year ago it was 3.15, I'm getting a decent value for what I pay. I would recommend checking into American Home Shield because sometimes we don't have an emergency fund like we should to cover things that happen on a house that we may own. When you rent, you can typically say, "Hey, landlord or maintenance people, my air conditioning is out." And usually, they're obligated to get it working. But it's different when it's your own home and you're trying to rationalize putting money in certain areas of the house because of finances.

This year though, I had the same issues, but in just one visit, that same company found out what they thought was the problem at this time and fixed it. They replaced the rubber tube inside of the unit, refilled the air for me with no problem and American Home Shield was not gonna charge me for Freon this time.

    In the beginning, when the tech came here, he was in a rush. I told him I'm in the refrigeration business, but I don't do homes. I do grocery stores. So, I already knew exactly what was wrong with it. It was the air handler motor up in the attic. He went up there. I don't know what he did. He came back down and grabbed a motor. He was like 100 miles an hour and then everything was hooked up and he told me to turn on the thermostat. I heard it kick in. Then I went outside and plugged in the disconnect from my condenser. The condenser didn't come on. I told him. He came out and said, “All your fasteners’ good. Everything's good.” I said, “Yeah, but the day before yesterday, I checked it to make sure.” He said, “I can tell you it’s the control board.” I said, "A control board? How is that possible?" He said, “I don't know. It could have shorted out or something like that”

    I was already out of air since Saturday. It was Tuesday when they came and did that. He told me it was the board and I thought he was gonna come back and give me some paperwork. He was gone. So, I called them and I said, “Listen. He was just here." Now I'm going to be without an AC till the following Saturday. The person said, "Well, that’s all we can do.” So then I called a couple of times to talk to American Home Shield. The reps told me, “Oh, we're gonna get somebody there. We'll get a senior tech to get there.” That was on Wednesday. It was 104 degrees and the house is up to 87 degrees. I said, “I can't handle being in here.” I called and asked, “Did you guys get the message from American Home Shield to send one of your senior techs?” The rep said, “No.” We managed to have all the fans running and kept it at 87 inside the house so I tolerated it.

    When a different tech came back to install the new control board, everything worked fine. Brandon was very pleasant. He took his time and walked me through it. He said, “It's in a relay. What I understand, is it's in a relay. So take a little bit of time, and your condenser will come on.” It did. Everything worked out well after that. Overall, American Home Shield is awesome. It's just sometimes, the people they get depends on what they're doing.

    American Home Shield's claim process is awesome. You call and pay your deductible. Today, I put in a claim for a pipe leak and they processed my payment. Five minutes after the call, I got a text saying my tech was gonna be out there on Wednesday. I had a claim prior for a non-functional water heater. A technician with Whitney Holdings came before his appointment time, which was awesome. He diagnosed the cause of the non-function and fixed it. The unit working just fine now.

    R & M is another contractor that came out to diagnose our lack of central air conditioning. Both technicians explained to me step by step what they were doing. More importantly, they explained why they were doing what they were doing. I found that to be really helpful. It's a little branch of customer service that a lot of places overlook.

    I'm glad that there is an entity such as American Home Shield. Unfortunately, having to deal with them means that something is not right with our home. But when there is something wrong with the house or the inter-coworking parts, it's nice to know that all I have to do is call the home warranty company, process my deductible, and they will have a technician certified in whatever problem we're having on the way within a couple of days.

American Home Shield said, "Well, you go by the contractor. You would have to talk to him." I said, "I already talked to him. He charged me for things that I don't need to have." So, that was kind of the problem. I wound up taking the money that AHS offers, instead of getting that gentleman to do it. Most recently, Union Express came out and fixed the AC within 10 minutes.

The first time, I selected both the washer and dryer for the ticket. The tech came out and he fixed the leak on the bottom of the washer but that was it. The water leaked down to the basement and destroyed my ceiling tiles and everything else. I repeated that ticket but I haven't heard anything about somebody coming back out for a follow-up on that.

    The second time I submitted a ticket for both, I checked them both off again and the guy came out and said he was only here to do the dryer. He didn't get anything that said the washer was approved or whatever. He got the dryer set up. If it has to be where each appliance has its own ticket, I understand that but it wasn't stated upfront.

    The only other issue I've had was when I had an air conditioning issue. I submitted a ticket earlier in the year and the tech came out and fixed it. It worked for a day or so and it didn't work after that. When I went back in to try to submit another ticket that this issue still wasn't fixed, it looked like AC had been taken off as one of the things that were covered. I resubmitted a ticket but I never heard back from AHS. But I still have the guy’s number from the HVAC company to service it. I called him directly and he came out the next day. He realized he did something wrong, so he came back out and fixed it.

    It hasn't been perfect with AHS but I've been satisfied with it, especially for as many appliance issues as I've had recently. State Electric Company came out and checked out the fan. The tech told me what was wrong, tried to rewire it, and then gave me a quote for what it would take to fix the fan. He said we'd have to wire it up to a new switch box and put a new fan in. He clarified that he wasn't sure whether it'd be covered by American Home Shield. He said that if they wouldn't cover it, I could give him a call and I can still request them to do the services if I wanted them to. I was satisfied with what he gave me as far as the diagnosis of what the problem was. It seemed like he knew what he was talking about and walked me through to show me what the problem was instead of just going by or not giving any kind of detail.

    One of my units wasn't cooling at all. Apparently, the capacitor wasn't working. The contractor that came out was really good. They were very prompt and efficient. They had to replace the capacitor. The technician was very friendly and polite. He was also very quick and efficient. He worked clean and was out of here.

    I didn't have a good experience with AHS the first time. There's a company here in Phoenix that's on their website so I thought this was the company that AHS uses to fix the AC unit. The guy came out from this company, he went upstairs to my attic, and he told me that my compressor was bad. But I bought this house in 2011 and the unit was brand new. He proceeded to say it's gonna cost 1,400 to fix everything. I called AHS when the guy was here and they said they don't use this company anymore and to not let him do anything to my house. But I had paid the company $79 and I was kind of angry that I had to fork out that amount for somebody that didn't even do any service to my house. Then come to find out somebody disconnected all the wiring upstairs in the attic to the unit and put a big hole where those wires were supposed to go. I had another company come out and their guy fixed everything for me for $190.

    My ceiling fan wasn't working. The tech said the remote wasn't getting contact. But it didn't have a battery in it. So, I figured they could at least put a battery in to check to make sure it works. But they took it upon themselves for me to go get a battery and then they left. So, when I got the battery, the fan is still not working. The electric company should have batteries in their truck and test the fan to see what's wrong with it and they didn't do that. So, I'm gonna call them back today.

I did get the electrical service request and the only person that they could schedule for us wouldn’t come out for a week, so I just canceled the claim through American Home Shield and got my own electrician because we were trying to move in the day after that, and we couldn’t move in with no AC.

    I'm enjoying American Home Shield’s services because things just started falling apart one after another. I had the plumber issue and the air conditioning issue all back-to-back within three weeks. So, it saved me money. I know most people, they've had this type of insurance before, and they would say it wasn't worth it because nothing ever happened. But things happen and things did happen. And I really needed it, and I got service within two days latest. Things happened over the weekend and by Monday or Tuesday, I had someone out here fixing it and it's fixed.

    There was a clog. The tech cleared it. It came back again. It was three times it clogged up but it was within a week span. But AHS didn’t charge me for that. They had the contractor keep coming out to fix the issue that was already there. And that was great, so it was helpful. Because I know if I didn't have that, I would have had to keep paying them to come back. And they did a great job. They said, “Yeah. Sometimes, we have to come back out two three times because the clog moves or it precedes another problem." But they came back out almost immediately. Fixed it. They were fast and very informative. I've been very pleased with my service. AHS covers everything I need. I don't have anything crazy expensive. And most expensive things that may break, they cover. So, I've been happy with AHS. And last month, having to use them so much, it has been amazing.

    In the first couple of months after we bought the house, we had a problem with the air blowing when it was already cool in the house. We wanted to shut it off but it kept blowing. We had to call a technician out. He came by and corrected the issue. Just a month ago, our air conditioning unit upstairs went out. A gentleman came out, went outside, and messed with the air conditioning unit. He said he had to order a part. A couple hours after he left, the air conditioning unit downstairs wasn’t working. I called the gentleman and said he didn't touch the downstairs unit. I called American Home Shield and they charged me another $75 to have a guy come out here. When he came out, he fixed both of them. But that was not right. We paid for a service and something the first guy did caused us to lose our downstairs air.

    A couple weeks later, the air went out again. A lot of times, the people I speak to on the phone don’t speak good English. I can’t understand them and they have a problem understanding me. We go back and forth. My wife was telling the rep that we didn’t have air conditioner. The rep said they'd send a technician out. We asked who and she said Kool Guys would be back out and that there wouldn’t be any charge. We told her we didn’t want Kool Guys. She said, “If we send another person out, we got to charge you $75.”

    That was Saturday and there was nothing on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and today. None of them ever called me back and no one followed up. We asked what was going on and the rep said they only got one technician in our area, Kool Guys. If we didn't hear from them in two hours, to call them back. We called them back and the rep said they just assigned Kool Guys to come out to our house for Thursday. We asked, “You sent us Kool Guys. So, you’re going to send us our $75 back?” They said, “No, we’re sending you a technician.” They’re not even aware on what’s going on because they’re not leaving notes. It’s chaos. They lied to us. When you lie, your credibility is bad.

    For the other times, the company that came out here was very good. But I’m very dissatisfied this time. I always thought American Home Shield was good but we ran into some bad problems. I can understand if I was getting it for free, but we’re paying. We should get what we’re paying for. Our contract expires in September and we might have to look around and call Select.

The dishwasher was replaced, but In the many appointments (approximately 5xs) they made only to be told that this company they assigned does not do the installation. After speaking with a Supervisor, I was told l could find my own installer and would be reimbursed first with the $125, and once my installation is complete to send in the itemized installation bill. Now l American Home Shield says they only give $125. I was lied to by the company and also by the company who delivered the dishwasher because they never came back to install they said they didn't have a long enough hose on the truck. This sounds suspicious and should have been a red flag. l paid out of pocket $350 plus a $100 deductible. I will not recommend this company and let others know of AHS's bad practice.

    Hi Amanda,

    We are American Home Protect, not American Home Shield. Although we both provide home warranty protection services, we are a very different company. We provide a 3-year warranty as opposed to American Home Shield’s 1-year warranty. And more importantly, if you had our warranty, you would have certainly been satisfied with our service because our service providers will install new appliances as part of their included service. We did a search for you in our customer database just to be sure that you were not our customer, and there was no sign of your information. So, you are definitely not one of our customers. It is terrible that American Home Shield had service that left you dissatisfied, and we would like to invite you to take a look at the services we offer which includes handyman services as part of your home warranty contract for the same low deductible which will save quite a bit of money on any need for handyman services.

    The communication between customer service reps is one of the worst I've ever seen! Along with them taking forever to respond to requests or claims. After we submitted our claim for our refrigerator, not only did it take 2 weeks, but they then ordered the wrong part because they were trying to get the cheapest deal. So then we are still waiting a month later to get our fridge fixed. And they would always return calls after 7 pm, which just happens to be closing time for the replacement department and others that you need to talk to. So they basically just keep kicking the can down the road.

    So here we are a month later and my wife and stepdaughter still don't have a fridge that works. We get a call today (After 7 pm of course) and we are told that our status hasn't changed. But wait, there's more.... We had just spoken to another rep that FINALLY pushed through the replacement process. SO the rep that was supposed to call that morning had no idea that it had been handled. Good thing we did get Melanie on the other call. Plus, we are still fighting with them about a hot water heater issue from about 6 months ago. They still owe us money for that one as well. Along with the septic issue that we had, I paid the 100.00 deductible for them to tell me that it wasn't covered. I still haven't got that money back either.

    We had American Home Shield before with our other house and we had a good experience. That is why we repurchased the warranty plan when we bought a new house. Their claim process is not bad. It's just when I tried to do a claim online, it did not work. I ended up having to call in and talk to a customer service representative. They sent everything over to the service people and they contacted us.

    Their service people came out and they were really nice. They fixed a couple of things the first time they come out. However, it didn't fix the problem. The guy told us that it may not. He thought that the unit is just too small for the house or too old for the house. It was gonna need a different unit. But he said to give it a couple of days and then see. The only frustrating part was we gave it a couple of days and it still wasn't working. When I called back to have them come back out and replace the unit, we got booked far out because they didn't have anything available. Now, we're in this waiting period. It’s been a week and they're supposed to come back out tomorrow to recheck the unit and see if we're going to need a new one or find out exactly why it's not keeping cool.

    I've had a lot of trouble with American Home Shield in ways because I've had trouble with air conditioning. The contractor came out, they worked on it, and it worked for a day and it went out again. The new ac was put in December of 2020. I used the heat in '21 and '20. We didn't use the air. So, we turned the air on this year and it worked for 10 minutes and quit. So, the new air condition has never been rolling for three hours at most since they fixed it and it was on because that cooled the house down but it went back out again. So, the air has been no benefit. The heat worked since we had it put in. When the tech came out to check it the other day, he said that something wasn't wired right. The Arrow man told me, "The minute you turn the air on, the heat would come on." The heat element is coming on every time you turn the air on.

    He checked the wiring on it and got it to working. When he left, it was cooling and it cooled the house down that evening and that night, and it quit and it never came back on again. He showed me a picture of it where you could see the things in the control board, but some of them were burned. You could tell they were burned just by discoloration. He also had to replace the transformer. This is all-new stuff and put in the 9th of December of 2020 and a five-ton unit and it has never been a workable air condition since the day it was put in. They came back out and looked at it, and said the computer board that's in it was burnt up. So, they had to order one. They will be back Tuesday. But the heat did work. I finally got a new air conditioner put in in there and the new one's already going.

    I recently had an issue with my garbage disposal. The plumber said, “It'll take me a second to look at it. I'll go ahead and do that for you.” Now, it's in worse condition than it was in the first place. He said he would come back and fix it. But I haven't seen him nor would I now let him in my house. But he wasn't a horrible person. He seemed like he was trying to help but then didn't follow up.

    It seemed like if there was an issue, the people that do this stuff used the cheapest quality things to fix what you have wrong at your house. I really don't think it's any savings. I'm waiting for my warranty with AHS to expire in a year and not renew it. I’d rather get things fixed myself and have better quality work and appliances or items. Although, I got my heater fixed and they did a good job.

    I love American Home Shield. I couldn't have asked for a better home warranty company. I just referred my next-door neighbor and she set up an account with them. Whenever I have an issue, I get a service provider out quickly. I've had American Home Shield for over 15 years and when I tried other home warranty companies, they didn't have service providers that knew how to fix the issues. But when I contacted American Home Shield, they would send someone out that was capable of resolving the issue.

    The last couple of times that I've called, I've spoken to someone who resides in a different country. The issue that I'm still trying to get resolved is, in May, I requested my AC to be serviced. Then I started having problems with my AC so I canceled the tune-up and only wanted to take advantage of the free tune-up. When I communicated that to the representative, they canceled all of them. I was on the phone with them four or five phone calls later. When they read and stated the tune-up for one AC, they charged me $150 instead of it being my free tune-up. I have still been trying to get my $150 back.

    I was having an issue with my microwave that would turn on but would make a funny noise. It wouldn't heat anything up. The tech did the test, ordered the part, and came back a week later. AHS's contractor was very professional and very communicative. I was very pleased that they contacted me within 24 hours to schedule the initial visit. The claim was put in on a Tuesday and they were out to assess the situation by Friday. They scheduled the appointment to install the ordered part and contacted me before that window to let me know that the timing had changed. I was really happy with the experience. But the last claim I had with AHS did not go nearly as smoothly. I hesitated to file the microwave claim because of how badly that last one went.

    American Home Shield needs to come down on their service fee. Their service fee is $100. And to have a contractor come out for $100, that's expensive, when you got other warranty companies at 55 and 60. The AC was low on Freon. The contractor is coming to do a leak test now to see what the problem is, where the leak is coming from. The techs were quick to come out, and were very professional because they explained what was going on.

    The first go-around with them for my dryer was not a very good experience. The guy they sent tried to tell me my dryer was fixed when it wasn't. Whenever I called, they said that he couldn't come back out unless I wanted to pay another fee. At the time, I had Sears on the phone so that was not true. Because they said his notes said that he fixed my dryer, they wouldn't send him out again. So I had to pay another fee to have a different person come. That person had my dryer fixed within a week.

    With my washing machine, the guy came to my house twice. Both times, he claimed he fixed it. So I had to argue with AHS. Finally, they sent me the payment for the amount of my washer, so I can go purchase a new one. I like the fact that AHS is there but it takes so long to get anything done.

    It's been efficient that I paid $75 to American Home Shield and then they come and repair the issue. If they can't repair it, then they replace it instead of me paying the money for it. Submitting a claim is easy to do. You can either call them or you can do it over the computer. I sent in a claim when the water in my toilet kept running. The contractor came out and took out the whole system and put a new system in. They were great. They were on time and very professional. They did what they had to do and left. Everything is great.

    Last year, I was having problems with my refrigerator and the process could have been better. I always had to call American Home Shield and every time I called, I got somebody who was rude. I was asking questions and she acted like she didn't want to answer them. But then, the supervisor contacted me and everything was fine. She assigned a company to come out. The contractor looked at it and said, “You know what? We're going to order the part. And we'll see how much it’s going to cost? We might have to just replace it.” The process after was fine.

We had an issue with the air conditioner and they came out and had a technician look at it. They said, "Your air conditioner is not good anymore." So, they replaced it. It was awesome. They went above and beyond. I've had experiences where the technicians either don't respond in a timely manner or just don't respond in general. I just call and usually, they're quick about helping me get another technician assigned to the job. And usually, that next person is really good.

    My recent claims were a dishwasher that was leaking and a refrigerator ice machine. When you push a button on the ice machine or water, it would just make this ungodly noise. No idea what it was doing there, but, the tech was able to diagnose both of them and we ended up getting a replacement dishwasher because that one was really old and there was no adequate replacement for that specific one or the parts. The tech was also able to fix our fridge, too. It took about a week to get parts and was good to go.

That was his second time out. The first time, it worked good for a few weeks, but it is so hot here. It's much more comfortable, whatever he did, but it's still not as cool as downstairs.

    Get a service that you can afford. AHS has comprehensive service. But their service call fee is a little high. It wasn't as expensive when we started. And probably like any warranty company, they would be at their jobs out and they probably go with the most economical person for them. So, sometimes, we get technicians that are not very experienced and take a little longer to do the repairs. The first 10 years, we had better quality technicians that came in.

Despite multiple calls, over 10 agents, and hours of my time trying to simply have the contractor call me, AHS has refused to assist in any capacity. Each agent just re-reads the same information and script.

    Unfortunately, it appears that most of the agents do not have proficiency in English enough to address issues that deviate from their script, which makes the conversations impossible to have with agents failing to actually respond to a question. AHS refused to follow-through with calls from supervisors, escalations, or to have their contractor actually complete their work. The agents continually lie or refuse to assist.

    We were with a couple other companies prior to American Home Shield and we found them to be the best group that we’ve had. So, we continue to work with them. They've done what they said they were gonna do, which is the good part. They followed through and they've returned phone calls. In today's day and age, that's a rarity. This is the third year we will have a contract with them and we've gone a year without a claim, why you have a home warranty. But we’ve had three claims with AHS. Our washing machine broke and we got the parts in the mail the other day, and the guy is coming on Friday to install what he needed. We also had a claim because the wires weren't capped on the electrical panel. I won't fool with it because when you turn it back on, who knows what damage I've done. I don't even care if the electricity is off. So, we had a guy come out to do that.

    We also had an inspection on some of the covering on the air condition that goes on top. Over the years, it degraded and that had to be replaced. Then, we had to do an air condition check to make sure all the units were fine and working. We’re getting ready to sell our home and when you sell a 20-year-old home, sometimes that's important to have that information so we did that. Everything's been done with the exception of the washing machine. It's all working out.

    When I first started dealing with AHS, it was like the lottery. You'd say what's wrong and they would say who you would get. I said I was not a big fan of the company and I would rather have company Z that also does work for them. But AHS said they couldn’t do that. It was a random selection. Over the course of the three years we've been with them, we can now request. When we had the air condition repair, I said that two years ago, we replaced the air condition and they sent out XYZ company. And they said they would get the same company for me.

    It's been a really good relationship with AHS. They did a great job for me in my first year and I'm going to keep using them. It's worth paying the fee just so that I don't have to worry. Recently I had a claim for my AC and it was an exercise in the hilarities. I have a heat pump system which means it's both the heating and air conditioning. It's the same system that went out the first winter that I was here and froze my pipes. The pipes burst and water went everywhere and destroyed the floor. The techs said, “Oh, you just don't have any Freon. We'll put some more Freon in."

    Two weeks later, I'm not getting anything and they go, “Uh-oh. We found that you have a leak. So we think we found the leak. We fixed the leak. Here's some more Freon.” Two weeks later, it wasn't working again. They're like, “Oh, my God. What the hell is happening?” This has happened every single year since I moved in. Last year, they said, “We looked through everything. We could not find the leak. The only thing we can think of is that you did some construction here. The pipe in the wall here probably has a hole in it.” So they built an extra pipe outside the house and then put a cover on it. The total bill was $1000 and they were like, “Okay, it's working now. We think that fixed it.”

    A few weeks ago, I called the air conditioning people again and I have no Freon again. This is the fifth time that it's all disappeared. They found another leak and said, “Dear God, I seriously hope that this fixes it.” Freon is very expensive and AHS has only charged me for the first Freon. If that has anything to do with AHS, that was totally worth it. I love the feeling that I'm somehow protected if something goes wrong.

    But I'm not thrilled that I mostly deal with a computerized system and a phone tree. When I call, it's just, “Would you like to start a new service call? Would you like to continue an old service call?” The few times I talked to somebody, it was somebody with a very thick accent and I could barely understand them. It was a bit confrontational. I left that, feeling pretty pissed off. Other than that, when I'm dealing with the service people who have come out, they've all been really good.

    I like that with AHS, you have a backup when things break down. I had a claim recently for my refrigerator. The gasket around the doors needed repair. The water was settling on my shelves in the refrigerator. The tech cleaned some parts in there and then ordered gaskets to go around the door. When they came in, he did the rest of the repairs. It's working fine now.

    One time, my air conditioner was messing up. They had to order a motor forward. It was really hot. It took about three weeks for that to get straightened out. They had to wait for the part to come in. But when the part came in, it was the wrong part. So, I still had to wait. I ended up buying the air conditioning units. But when my water heater went out right after I first got American Home Shield, the techs came out and changed the hot water heater out. Later on, my washing machine also went out. They tried to repair it but couldn't, so they replaced it. I'm satisfied with American Home Shield.

    We had someone initially come out from McCormick to do a yearly checkup on the air conditioner. He couldn't get the thermostat to work. Then he got it to work through the furnace area. He said we needed a new thermostat. So we set up with American Home Shield again and we paid the $100 to have someone come out. This time, Young Mechanical came out and the tech was so very experienced that he came in and he said, "You don't need another thermostat, it's just wires were crossed." So he fixed it immediately and put some Freon in the air conditioner. He was amazingly knowledgeable about what he was doing. I would definitely send him on more jobs. Our experience with American Home Shield was great. If we have a catastrophe, it's a really good deal.

So, American Home Shield made me pay a second deposit, which was unfair. But neither here or there, I still had to get it done. Also, it’s hard to understand reps that can't speak English.

Some things that I said kind of triggered some things for them to check. So, their expertise in troubleshooting was really exceptional.

    The claim submission process was pretty easy. The only thing I'm a little disappointed with Home Shield on is that depending on the problem that I have, I don't think 30 days is enough to make sure that the problem is really taken care of. If I have like a slow leak in the coil, you're not going to really realize that the leak is there until way after 30 days.

    Comfort Pros was great. The one part that wasn't great was it took a while for them to get here. I put the call in on a Sunday. I called the following Monday morning and left a message asking them to call me and letting them know that I was going to be home all day. They didn't call. I called them. I said, "Hey, yeah. I'm just calling to follow up, seeing when mine get scheduled." The person said, "You know what? We'll call you when we're ready to schedule." I said, "Will they call me today?" She was like, "Yes. They'll call you today." They finally did call me today at around 7:55 PM and they said, "Okay. Well, we can get you in on Friday." That was like five days later but it was okay.

    When the guy did come on Friday, he was super efficient and great. He fixed the problem in like 5 minutes. It turned out to be like this battery part and he had it with him, which was great. It's working fine now. What I do like about American Home Shield is that I'm paying an annual amount and I know that if anything big goes, the cost of the part and the labor would be covered and I'll just pay this $100 service fee. But I don't like that we're kind of at the mercy of whatever providers they contract with and they'll get to us when they get to us.

    I've had a few different claims that I processed. At this point, with what I've poured in thus far to American Home Shield in terms of premium, I don't know if I've recouped my money. They're in the business of making money, so I get that but at the same time, there should be something in the contracts that the service people will not just have to call you back at a certain timeframe, but they have to be on site in a certain timeframe.

Overall, American Home Shield is fine so far. I haven't had any problems with any of the service people. I also got a garage door issue, and now I'm waiting for the service guy to get the part to fix that.

    We had a claim to American Home Shield where PHD came out, and it went well. They were able to resolve the problem. At first, it seemed like it wasn't going to be fixed, but they figured it out. It seems to be resolved now. The downstairs toilet wasn’t flushing right and there was a really bad smell. It turned out that the main line was full of stuff and it had to get snaked and cleared out.

    I called AHS and told them my toilet was acting weird, and we talked about it. I got a text from them saying the name of the company that was coming out. Then the company itself texted me before they showed up with the name of the person that would be showing up. The company was great. For a while, I wasn't sure if having AHS was worth it because I didn't have any reason to use it and I was paying $60 a month and that's like $720 a year. With this particular experience that I had, it seems like it's a good service to have. For now, I'm gonna keep it.

    The service of AHS has been pretty good. Everything I've needed, they were able to help us out with. Our recent claim went well. Everything was fixed. It was all covered under the cost of the initial service fee. Expectations were met. Also, they're pleasant to work with, easy to explain the situations to and very understanding in trying to help me out. Things are also online now. You can track the service tickets easier and see the information for who you're working with, whereas in the past, it was handed off and then you just didn't know until somebody showed up.

    I've had the worst possible experience with any company I've ever used. I called April 26th which was 31 days after the policy was taken out. I told American Home Shield what was wrong and they sent a technician. He came, spent 10 minutes and said the dishwasher needed a new motor and the whole thing was fried. He also said it would be 7 to 10 days on the part, which I wasn't happy about. He called me back about two days later and said he needed to come back out and re-diagnose the problem. He hadn't even ordered the part and he already told me 7 to 10 days. He came back out, spent an hour diagnosing it and came up with the same diagnosis. He said the part was back ordered and did not know when it would be in. I said, "I want a new dishwasher. I'm not gonna wait indefinitely for a part to come in when you can't even give me any information." He walked out the door and said, "This is between you and American Home Shield."

    American Home Shield said they could not find a new technician to take over. I told them, "If you cannot give me a dishwasher, I want my money back on this policy so I can go buy my own dishwasher." The policy was about $750 and they told me that they would keep $220 and refund the rest. I said, "I'm not giving you $220 for 31 days of service and you can't fulfill your obligation. That's not right." They told me that was the only way - I would either lose $220 straight off the top or I could wait it out. I waited it out.

    They kept asking for 48-hour extensions at a time. I gave them two of those to find me a company to come service it. I live in Jonesboro, Arkansas. It's got 100,000 people. The only reason I took the policy in was because they said I would not have any trouble finding technicians to service me if I had a claim. They had to have the first company come out of Paragould, which is a good 30 minutes away. He came twice. They had a second company come in who, again, also ended up coming two times before the problem was completely diagnosed. Five times, they came to my house but I did not get a gift card to replace the dishwasher until last night.

    American Home Shield did not, in any way, take care of me. It was 40 days plus with no dishwasher because they wouldn't honor their agreement. They couldn't fix it. They couldn't get me a part. They should have immediately issued me a gift card. To top it all, the way their email comes out, it gives you two choices. You can choose to either do some kind of cash out or a gift card. But they won't tell you what it's worth until you click into "Yes, I accept the gift card." Once I did that, I was committed to the gift card, which was only for $714. My dishwasher is three rows, stainless on the inside, stainless on the outside. That's supposed to cover installation, haul away, and a new dishwasher. That ain't gonna cover all that. They cheated me and told me I selected that.

    I wasn't too happy about American Home Shield. The guy put me on the spot, making me think if I didn’t go ahead and get it, that the price was gonna go up. I went ahead and pressed him on it a bit, and he said it wouldn’t start until the following month, which is when the first payment would come out. I went ahead and did it, then I turned right around, made another phone call and found out his price was drastically higher than the next person I called. That person told me that even if I didn't use them, I did not need to use these people because they were way too high.

    A few days later, I had a health issue, and I thought I was gonna be out of work. I was out of work for six weeks and I couldn't afford the policy so I called them to cancel it. The billing goes through somebody else and they gave me the phone number to call and cancel. When I called, I got the automated service and never got to talk to a real person. It said that they will get back to me within 24 hours. They called me three days later, which just happened to be on the day that the policy was going to start. When I told them I called to cancel this, they said, “Well, you still have to pay the 200 and something dollars.” I said, “For what?”

    The service with American Home Shield is a little hit or miss. The agents on the phone that we deal with don't necessarily seem to be very capable of accommodating things when we're asking for it. On most of our most recent calls, we asked for particular things. Our air conditioner needed repair recently and they were very difficult in trying to accommodate getting someone out in a timely fashion. We were told three times that someone would be out that evening. They've provided some inaccurate information, which caused us to have to endure things a little longer than we would want it to have. Their customer service seemed very confused and they tell you one thing but it has never actually what has happened. They need to improve on it. Their ability to understand us seems a bit difficult.

    American Home Shield doesn't do the work that's supposed to be covered. I'm completely dissatisfied with them. I told them I had a leak in my sink and my faucet. Also, my tub is clogged and I have a leak coming from the toilet dripping into my kitchen. They sent someone and the guy said he can't touch the tub until the leak in the toilet is fixed. He never even went up to the bathroom and he was very unprofessional. I said, “Have someone flush the toilet so you can see.” He's like, “No, we're not gonna make it worse.” I said, “`I have a home. There are seven of us here and the toilet isn’t going to flash. So while you're here, I could show you.” And he was like, “No, there’s no need."

    A second person came and that contractor said they didn't have the claim saying that there was a stoppage in the tub. I called AHS while the tech was there and they said, “Yes, we do have that on the claim.” And the guy said, “No, we don't, so I cannot touch it because it's not on there.” Everything's still happening and I'm paying a premium of $100 for these people to come out and nothing's happening.

    I made one claim, but AHS was able to establish that it wasn't working from the time that we bought the house, and that's kind of fair to me. However, if an appliance needs to be replaced, there could be an option of paying out of pocket to go above a builder grade replacement. When I had the hot water heater go out at my old residence, it was approved for a 40-gallon builder's grade model. I worked it out with the installer and told him I'd pay out $400 out of pocket to get a nicer one. He came back and he apparently wasn't supposed to do that at all.

    I've used American Home Shield twice this year. I was very pleased with Sunbelt Electric. With the other guy that came out prior for my refrigerator, we really couldn't target what the problem was because it was intermittent. I did eventually have to replace the refrigerato because I wasn't gonna have this intermittent stuff going on, but that had nothing to do with them because he did all the tests that he needed to do. Because it was so intermittent with the temperature inside the freezer and refrigerator, it was kind of hard to pinpoint the problem.

    American Home Shield did replace the fan that was in my dining room area. They couldn't repair it, and they actually replaced it with something better than what was in there. So, I'm happy with that. I do like the fact that you can get ahold of them but the thing I don't like about it is, everything is automated. When you call, everything's automated. It's almost like you cannot get a human being to talk to. I want to be able to talk to somebody, and there's so much automation that deals with it. I kept pushing this one button about my fan, and it kept asking me about my ceiling. I was like, “No, it’s not my ceiling. It’s my ceiling fan.” I don't want to do this automation stuff. I want to be able to have a button that says, "After it does all the automation, if you still haven't gotten your answers, push zero to get a human being."

    I do like the fact that AHS does give you the name of the company and their phone number. That way, you can contact that company if you haven't heard from them within a 24-hour period or if you want to contact them prior to 24 hours. Unfortunately, I made a call on a Saturday. Sunbelt Electric wasn't open. I understand that. So, I had to wait till Monday. I called them first thing when they opened up, and I was able to get an appointment.

    I like American Home Shield's flat fee of $75 each time I need something taken care of, particularly if it happens to be a high dollar amount repair. The only thing I don't like about American Home Shield is that I don't have the same company coming out each time I need something. When I need my condensation lines on my air conditioning unclogged, I'm always getting somebody different. That's the only thing that I don't personally care for. I'd rather be able to develop a rapport with the company rather than have somebody different each time. As far as the AC is concerned, the last two that I had, Crispy Air and Consolidated hadn’t addressed the issue more thoroughly.

    I went to schedule my service online the last two times, and I was not able to do so because they changed my account number. They changed my telephone number and did not update my dashboard. So, I had to call to reschedule. I prefer to do my claims online, but with the service call prior to this one for the plumbing issue, the representative I spoke with said that she would update the system to reflect my new policy member, and it was never changed so that I could do my service call online the next time. The person that I spoke to for my last service walked me through how to do that on my own, and she gave me my new policy number over the phone. Now, I have the correct policy number. So, I should be able to log in and schedule service online if I need to.

    I kind of feel like American Home Shield does band-aids and does not really fix some of the problems that I have. I had a really significant leak under my sink in my bathroom and a crew from Pond Brothers came out and stopped the leak. But there was the hot water heater that they put right on top of the saggy cabinet and it's sinking down. The mold is going up behind it and I can't reach it. I called American Home Shield and said, "Do you cover this?" They said, "No, we did not." The leak has stopped, but I have to replace all the cabinets. So, I'm not happy about that.

    Ironically, a week later, I had an issue with my toilet and a different crew from Pond Brothers came out and they were very efficient and solved the problem. Everything's great. The other situation was just very frustrating. Overall, American Home Shield's service is good. The product is just not so great. There was a time when there was also ductwork up there that was old and falling down and American Home Shield wouldn't cover any of it. When I needed a faucet, they didn't even ask me what faucet I wanted. They just went out to Lowe's and got one and slapped one on there.

    I had somebody come out through American Home Shield for an appliance and for plumbing. The plumber had me order the parts that I needed for my repair, which is definitely out of the ordinary. I'm a contractor by trade, so it's not something that is normally done. It's not put off on the customer to order their parts. If I order something incorrectly, then that's on me and not on them. AHS still hasn't resolved a problem. If I had to do it over again, I wouldn’t. I'm not sure how much longer I'm gonna keep with it because it doesn't make sense to me. I'm paying for the services but I'm not really getting the services.

    I did call American Home Shield because they told me the wrong information on one of the products in question. It was a Whirlpool tub and they were telling me that was made by Mellon and turns out that it’s not made by Mellon. So, now they gotta come back out here to do their job and figure out who the Whirlpool was actually produced by, so they're going to have to order it this time. I'm not going to do it. I did with the parts for the tub but I'm not going to do it anymore. I'm a consumer, I'm not the contractor. I shouldn't be ordering anything. I hired them to relieve me of the stress of that, and unfortunately, I didn't get relieved of the stress of that.

    When I called American Home Shield, they weren't very happy either. So they contacted those contractors back and they're supposed to be back out here again on Thursday of this week. For the amount that I'm paying, I shouldn't be doing that. They should be doing their own due diligence as far as ordering the parts, making sure the right parts are being ordered, doing their own research, and making sure that the information they do give me is correct. As of right now, I'm still waiting on that guy to come back. I'm not really happy at all.

    American Home Shield has good coverage, but depending on what state you're in, they either have great contractors or they have contractors that you have to be very wary of and make sure they don't take advantage of you. I had American Home Shield cover my house in Hawaii and then I cancelled it. But they are covering my house in Nevada and my house in Ohio. I actually had two houses in Ohio but I sold one. In the house that I sold, the toilet was leaking and the leak was coming through the floor. So the plumber came out, looked at the job, and said he had to do a seal but he didn't have the tools. He had to go get the tools. Then he charged American Home Shield as if he got paid and the job was done.

    American Home Shield called the plumber with me on the other line, and I told him, “You came out and said you didn't have the right tool. And then you went ahead and billed them said the job was finished.” At first, he said, “Oh.” Then he came and nobody was home. We had him on the Ring doorbell but then he said he didn't remember. He had so many customers that he didn't remember who he finished. I told him, “You charged American Home Shield not knowing who you charge and what you did for them? Because you never came back and finished the job.”

    Currently, I have American Home Shield in a second Indiana home, and I sent a claim for my upstairs shower. The plumbing agency they hired came out and said they needed approval because they gotta take off the plastic wall. I called American Home Shield and said, “Hey it's been like a month and I haven't heard back.” They told me, “Oh, he needed approval and according to our records, the approval was sent.” So on my behalf, American Home Shield again called. We cannot use our shower since March and we're a family of six and an infant using one little bathroom downstairs. It is now June and the plumber has been notified three times already.

    When I had a claim for my dishwasher, the guy said they couldn't take off the top because somehow, they planned on fixing the dishwasher when they should have just taken it out and put a whole new one in there. Now, we've got to take out our countertop and we have all these parts. It’s almost like they’re rebuilding this whole dishwasher and it’s causing us grief.

    When American Home Shield did do my water heater, the person that came out was really good. They got the water heater changed but they were going to charge me a removal fee to take out the old one so they just left it and I had my husband take it out. I recently used American Home Shield in Las Vegas when my AC went out. Their technician called me the next day. It was a Saturday. I missed his call and he already left the office. The next day, I got ahold of him and right away, he had an appointment that next Monday, which was the next day. Then he came out, did what he had to do, and the AC was working. So far, when I used American Home Shield for the AC in Las Vegas, they were wonderful and quick. It was great service.

    We like American Home Shield's service. We had the highest level of service. The only thing that we have to pay is the $75 service fee. The only hiccup that we had was when we were first arranging a visit from a plumber. Somehow the wires got crossed. At that time, we were only at the house on weekends. For some reason, our appointment was rescheduled without our knowledge to a day that we weren't going to be there, but a couple of calls resolved that. The contractor that came out was absolutely great. We found out we're going to need a new water heater soon. There was a problem with the thermocouple unit firing for the pilot. It wouldn't turn over, and he did a couple of things and it turned over and it hasn't turned off since. So, that's a beautiful thing. Our experience has been good so far.

    I did a claim to American Home Shield by the internet and they sent Keepin It Cool. There was something wrong with one of the transformers inside the unit. So, the tech replaced that and the unit was running. Within a couple of days, it was low on Freon. So, they didn't check the Freon. But I had a buddy that came over and put Freon in the unit.

    The tech from Appliance Superheroes got back to me really fast and he came to my house. He let me know the status and he was very professional. He fixed all the problems, and then he informed me once he replaced the part and he saw there was another part that was broken. So he said he would follow up with Home Shield and then he said I needed to re-open the same claim. The other part that he thought was broken had to be replaced. He communicated with American Home Shield and then he investigated and learned that that part was not available. Then he informed me that there was nothing he could do and he said he informed American Shield that they would get back to me, which never happened. I'm still waiting. But the tech did everything that he needed to do very professionally and in a timely fashion. Our dryer is temporarily working, but it still makes lots of sounds.

    Every time I log in, there is a login error and that's been happening for a few months now. The only way you can get in touch with American Home Shield is through phone. My air conditioner wasn't working and I was having this problem since last year. I tried a personal contractor even before I got in touch with American Home Shield. I tried with Google Nest to see if it was an issue with the Nest unit. Finally, I called American Home Shield. Their contractor came out and did what they had to do. They verified everything but couldn't find the fault at that time. We ambled along for six months, not sure what was happening.

    At that point of time, I gave a poor feedback to Union Express. They were upset but I told them that feedback was not on their service, but in terms of the issue resolution for me. My thermostat wouldn’t change. Even if I put it at 75, it still kept running at 84. But they couldn’t check the outside unit because it was not running on cool as it was winter and the temperatures were not too up. This time around, as the problem continued into the summer, I reached out to American Home Shield who contacted Union Express. They came out again. With the temperatures up, they were able to identify that the AC condenser fan was gone. They were able to replace it and get everything back up and running.

    We were stuck in a hot house for over a week, and there was no sense of urgency by American Home Shield, trying to find a different company that could service us sooner. So it was a nightmare. There was a power outage in the community and the AC wasn't turning on at all. When the guy came, he had the part. But we waited for a little over a week for the guy to come out. This happened on a Friday and he didn’t come out till the following Friday. I called American Home Shield and asked, “Is there a different company you guys can use? Do you have availability?” But they said, “No, we already have it booked with them. That’s all we can do. You have to wait on them.” It didn’t sound right because they work with multiple companies. We had a similar issue with the AC two years ago, but it was resolved a lot better and quicker.

    The benefit of having American Home Shield is the ease of knowing that you pay the monthly charge, but you don’t necessarily have to come out of pocket a huge amount. We had a refrigerator go out a couple of years ago, and that was taken care of also. That is the great part about it. But from the time we started till now, the service has gotten a little bit complacent. When we first started, the service was really, really good. But over the years, the consistency hasn’t been there. American Home Shield should have the representatives be able to communicate with the company instead of waiting several days before booking it.

I recently had an appliance worked on and it went great. It's always nice when they're able to come out, diagnose a problem, and fix it before they leave. When I heard it was Sears, I wasn't too happy about it because I've had a home warranty through Sears in the past and it was a horrible service, but they came in under A&E. The tech presented himself as Sears and then he quickly said, “Oh, I'm with A&E." He was very good, very professional and seemed to know exactly what he was doing.

    I've been happy with the people that American Home Shield has sent out to deal with some issues that I've had. The tech from Quality HVAC came out quick, and it was on a Saturday, to just take a look at what was going to need to be done. He was able to assess the problem and he put a temporary fix on it for now. He said that there was an issue that might reoccur. It has to do with a drain that's partially plugged with some algae with my air conditioning unit and it was something that probably was not covered under our insurance. It’d cost about $1,400 to get it fixed if it fails.

    I’ve had air conditioning unit issues in the past and one was a wiring problem that was easily fixed. The other was a frozen unit in our attic where this thing is, and the repair guy fixed that easy enough. And right now, we're cruising. We had another issue with plumbing where our hot water heater failed and the contractor came out and replaced it. It's been a little bit of a money pit here in the house. It’s an older house, so we anticipated that. But still, it’s tough. Being new to the area, it's hard to find people to do the things when things fail and it's nice to have the home warranty that have people assigned to do whatever issues come up. Plus, it's handy. The downside is having to pay the 75 bucks every time somebody comes out, and it might be just a little thing. But it's all good.

We had a choice to use one of the contractors that was used or call for somebody else.

    The guy who came was very friendly and seemed very knowledgeable. He did a diagnostic on the refrigerator, and it came back with a bunch of information. From his experience, even though it was saying it was good, he suspected that the motherboard needed to be replaced. That ended up being what the issue was. Now, getting it was a problem because we couldn't get it for four to five weeks, but it is what it is. There was nothing the contractor could have done about that. On the other hand, what he did on the equipment was very professional and as soon as the part came in, I was contacted right away. He came, put it in, and everything was great.

The issue was the freezer part was running water. A tech showed us when he was doing it. It just froze in the back and clogged it up. He fixed it for us, cleaned up the water, and told us not to keep stuff too close to the back. He was excellent.

    I also had an electrician come through American Home Shield because the light in the garage wouldn't work. It was the wiring and it wasn't just the light that didn't work. They were backwards actually. In about 10 minutes, the electrician fixed all that. My plan with American Home Shield went up to $25 and I expected that.

    Preferred Climate Heating came out to my AC unit pretty much this year and towards the end of last year before we shifted to heat. On days that were super hot to the upper 90s, my AC unit doesn't keep up. So, I called American Home Shield this time again. I called in a few months ago, but the temperature spiked up like 90 and it went back down to 70s. So, it wasn't really a huge deal. I canceled that service call at that point. Then, we had a stretch where it was in the high 90s. So, I called it in again and Preferred Climate came out. They ran diagnostics outside, did their thing, and then came back and told me that both of my HVAC systems were about two pounds low on Freon. Having dealt with this, I know that if Freon is low, then there's a problem someplace because Freon is escaping. They said, "No, your Freon is low and that should fix the problem." I paid that out of pocket and it was roughly $610 to top off the Freon on both units.

    On the day they came out, the outside temperature was down to about 74 or so. So, you couldn't really see the extent of what I've been dealing with when it's up in the higher 90s. When it's 95 outside, the best that I can get upstairs in the house is about 80 degrees or so. So, they topped it off. A few days later after they came out, the temperature spiked back up to 90. When that happened, I immediately tried to call them back directly to see if I can get a return call from them and they didn't call me back at all. That was when I called back to AHS to tell them what happened and they scheduled a second visit with them. I tried to call them but didn't get an answer. I got ahold of AHS and they scheduled it again. So finally, after that, I got ahold of them. That was last week and they set up an appointment for Saturday from 8:00 to 12:00 and they never showed until about 12:30-ish.

    I tried to call them a few times, but it went straight to voicemail and I got no answer. I called back AHS on Saturday, and they attempted to call them and were unable to get them on the phone either. I haven't heard anything back from them at all. So, earlier today, I went back on the app and tried to do another return service call. Again, I was assigned to Preferred Climate. So, I was attempting to work with them again on the second return call since they had been here once already and diagnosed it and thought it was Freon. I kind of feel like I got ripped off a little bit on that one. Now that I look at it again, I don't think they really ran diagnostics at all. Because I wasn't feeling well that day when they came, so they went out and did their thing on the outside unit and never came inside the house. They kind of got me on that one.

    One thing I don't like about AHS is that I have to deal with multiple contractors. With my AC unit, I've had folks come out a few times and every single time is a different company. I just wish that you could stick with one company so they're familiar and you don't have guys like Preferred Climate coming out and ripping you off. At this point, I feel like I got ripped off by these guys. They didn't fix my issue and I paid out 610 bucks when I probably didn't really need to.
