The service itself is good. I like the process 'cause it's online. At my last house, last month, they had a contractor come out and replace the blown fuse from the AC. However, I've got to call them and get it straightened out why I was billed twice this month. The first time, it said online that the payment was due so I paid it. Then they took it out of my account. It’s the second time I had paid twice. It was kind of my fault, but it didn't tell me that it was being paid online through my automatic account.

The guy from Hopwood Electric came in and in less than three minutes, the repair was done. It was something minor. It started outside with something that we plugged in and it cut off and then cut back on. The next day, they noticed that the light outside wasn't working as well as the outlet. The light in the dining room and the front porch weren't working, and the refrigerator we had in the garage quit. It all revolved around that one little outlet where the refrigerator was plugged in. It was faulty and had wire that was loose on it. So he came in there and said that he might be able to tighten it up. Then, it came loose again. So, he redid the outlet and everything worked. American Home Shield was nice and fast, and the guy was friendly.

We used American Home Shield when a piece in our refrigerator snapped. Techs came out and fixed it. It took a couple of weeks to get everything done. In the past, it was nice because the company would reach out to us right away. But it seems in the past year, I would get an email saying, "This person is coming out there," but I don't hear from them. I end up reaching out and asking for updates. American Home Shield is not as good as it used to be. It also doesn't cover as much as we need it to for the price that we're paying, so my husband and I are looking at other home warranty companies.

I had a tank that was leaking and I called American Home Shield and they scheduled the service. It took a while for someone to come. I called the contractor and they were a week out. It wound up being the same people a week later. If you call and schedule someone to come out, and if you feel that's too far, to change and try to go through the process of having someone else come out, maybe you can get a quicker time if AHS lets the client know that it's a process of 72 hours before we can even go forward and applying to see if someone else can come out. I kept getting the runaround saying to call back tomorrow and I didn’t understand that. They said they were looking, which I didn't believe. 72 hours had to have passed before they called back to Jefferson Plumbing for me for that time.

My pipe burst under my house and the contractor came to repair it. But once they left, I noticed the water was still running in my bathroom. They came back out and said it was a smaller leak under there. They had to pull my vanity out. They were on time, got the job done and were very helpful. They gave out the information I needed and was very informative on whatever I needed to do.

AHS's price and service are good. The times I've used them before, they were quick to send someone out, which was always good. I had a water leak recently. The techs opened up the ceiling, checked everything out and determined where it was coming from. Now, I am waiting for someone to contact me so they can come to close the holes up that they cut in the drywall.

American Home Shield did a good job. Recently, I had a claim for the AC system and it went fine. I paid the deductible, and a nice guy came and fixed it. With American Home Shield, you can call folks who have experience for whatever your problem is. But money wise, I'm not sure if it's the best thing.

My refrigerator wasn't cooling. We had someone call and he asked what was wrong. He looked up the issue and ordered the proper part. Then, the technicians solved the issue. The refrigerator has been working great ever since. I would recommend AHS back then but I've had issues with them since. I have paid for service calls twice on my brand-new water heater and still had no one come out. My water bill is over $100 because it's leaking so badly. I'm not happy about that.

A young man came out for the dryer that stopped working and the washing machine that was about ready to take a trip down the runway. He called me and told me when he could be here. It was a pleasant experience. It wasn't a whole lot of complaining about this and that. He came in and explained to me what was wrong. He had to order a part then came back at the time that he said he was coming back. He called us and let us know when he was on his way. He did very well and we were very satisfied.

I get up to go to the gym for 4:00am, and I have a roommate who's disabled. I always check on him before I leave, and he said, "I have bad news." I said, "What's that?" He said, "The AC is not coming on." I go, "I'll just call American Home Shield." I don't think people realize how easy it is to file a claim. The process is literally walking from getting my gym bag to giving my dog a treat to out the door. Once they have your phone number, you verify it. They recognize your contract on the phone.
You can set up the claim service in two minutes, and it's straightforward. Follow the prompts, tell them what you need serviced, and they verify the coverage, email you the confirmation, as well as the confirmation on the contractor who was assigned to you, then you're done. It was just 3:00 in the morning, and I got it all set up before I got to my car. I then heard a bing on my phone and I have the confirmation email with the phone number to Grace Air. My roommate works a small job and he was gone. I decided to call Grace Air when they open. They called me right back and said it would be no problem.
The people that contract with American Home Shield, the two that I've had out here, are the most professional. They understand that people work. In the past, you used to have to wait for a repair service. Apparently, you catch on to how much money you can make as an AC repair service, and if you can get a steady clientele through American Home Shield, they come out same day. They were here for 11:00, and they gave me a 30 minutes heads-up that the tech was on his way. I'm a math teacher, and I can have someone watch my classroom. It fell into my conference period. When I got home, I was able to tidy up from the dogs and corral them in a room. The tech fixed our AC, and it was just nothing. It was easy and amazing.
There was a problem with the breaker and I said, "Thank God," because I know nothing about electricity, so I don't touch. The tech took the unit apart, looked it over, and said everything else was fine. The AC unit kicked on, and he checked the air temperature coming out of the vent. He said, "Your Freon's good. Everything on the unit looks good. In fact, it runs better." He did not just say, "Oh, it was this," and then stopped. He let me know he gave the unit a looking over and he was out of here in 25 minutes. Amazing young man.
Teaching is a steady, fixed income where money doesn't go up or down, so you make your budget. You get paid once a month. Any surprise, and that ruins your budget. That means you're dipping into money that you saved up or you're putting it on a credit card. Having American Home Shield means I know I pay the service fee and the monthly fee. The monthly fee is a definite and the service fee is so low, I can handle the service fee. I can't handle an $800 repair a month without rearranging finances. It gives me the peace of mind. I don't have parents to say, "Can you lend me 500?" I don't know how I would afford my house without the warranty. It was different when I had someone to fall back on, and it's much different now that I'm by myself standing alone.

When the contractor came out to do a free checkup, the tech discovered something needs to be replaced. So he called a work order in that same day near closing. He couldn't leave a receipt but he did change it out. American Home Shield gave him a work order number, so I just got to call them to get the receipt. But overall, American Home Shield is good. When something goes wrong, you can just call them and pay the deductible and get it repaired.

Our microwave died. We submitted the claim and within five hours, we had a phone call from the Appliance Pros telling us that they would come out. I was shocked. The contractor was really good. They communicated very well with us and were on time. And the gentlemen that came were very professional. They had to come out and see what was going on. Even though we knew it was dead, they had to assess the situation. And once they assessed that it was dead, they would submit something back to the American Home Shield and let them know that there was no way to fix it. We needed a new appliance.
That process took a while because the microwaves were on backorder. So, we didn't have a microwave for three months. That was because it was a built in. That was no one's fault, that was just production. They tried to put it in before we even got the appliance. They got notification we were supposed to receive it sooner, and I had to cancel the date with them. We changed the date. They couldn't get me in on Monday, they said they would come Tuesday. All of a sudden, the tech called me Monday, around 10 o'clock when it happened, and said, "Is there any way we can come out today? We had a cancellation." I said that would be wonderful. The guys came out and took care of it. It took them 30 minutes. And they cleaned up after themselves, which is shocking, because most gentlemen don't do that. They took the trash and left. It was a good experience.

American Home Shield met my standards and helped me out when I needed it. They helped with my dishwasher, some of my electrical and plumbing problems, and my shower. They fixed them and I'm satisfied with the timeliness. When I call a work order in, a contractor calls me immediately. The contractor that came out for my appliance was awesome. I liked their attitude. They knew what they were doing and they were courteous, respected my property and got the job done.
Sometimes I call American Home Shield, and sometimes I like to just go online and do the claim. I'm a techy guy. When I went online, one of the issues I had with my shower was it was not listed on there. That could be modified a bit more, and putting a remarks block in there would be good. I could put more details of what's going on, even though the contractors do call and ask what is going on with my problem. It's okay if I call American Home Shield for claims too. I'm a person that likes to just talk to a person, and usually, when I call, they respond right away.
I got a rental property and the people that stay in it weren't pleased with the other warranty company that I used. I was also displeased with them because they didn't honor my contract with them. I switched over to American Home Shield and we're both happy with it. They honor my contract with them and I would recommend them over the other warranty company. I've done a few reviews for American Home Shield too.

American Home Shield responds quickly. Any issues that I've had, they've taken care of things or helped me to figure out how to take care of them. Recently, there was something going on with the refrigerator and they had to order a piece for it. It took them a little while but that’s because of parts issues these days and not because of Adam’s or American Home Shield. It took a couple of weeks but it's taken care of now.
American Home Shield has been servicing my family for a long time. My mom was the first that we knew to obtain American Home Shield in Missouri. She told my brother and he got it. Both of my sisters got it for their home. She's told my cousins and they've got it for their home. It has been very handy for us for quite some time now. One claim that was bad was when we were having some problems with her washer and dryer. I pay for her policy too and it took us a long time to get it rectified with American Home Shield. I also thought that they were trying not to pay. The only reason that I got a response from them was because I went on a reviews website for those types of companies, did a review and told everybody that American Home Shield would not pay for my mom's washer and dryer when we've had them for all these years. Once I did that review online, within a day, they called me and took care of it. But I shouldn't have had to go that far for them to take care of it.
My mom has an air conditioner that she has had in her house since the 90s. Every year we have issues with that air conditioner. Every summer we have to call American Home Shield about it. They still have not decided to replace that air conditioner and it needs to be replaced. This last year, we ended up having to find somebody on our own because American Home Shield acted like they couldn't help us to find anybody.

I had American Home Shield back in ’14 and it was beneficial. Everyone should have a home warranty all the time. I moved and last year, I got the warranty again.

I've had good luck with American Home Shield. I emailed AHS the first time. My dryer kicked the breaker when it was ran. And when it kept happening, and I emailed AHS back and they said, “Well, is it the same thing? Or we're gonna have to charge you again?” I said, “No, it's the same thing. It’s still happening.” And the contractor came back out. The guy said, “Okay, I think it's in the breaker,” and referred it to an electrician. The contractor came out and went through the dryer, but it kept going. So, they came out and replaced the breaker for it. And that seems to have fixed it. They were courteous, went in, did what they needed to do, and left. It costs a lot less to have somebody come out and do it for under warranty work than it does when I had to have somebody out to work on the dryer, but it still wasn’t fixed, so I had to call an electrician.

I was not happy in the beginning because we bought the house, we moved in, and AHS said they would send a letter outlining the service and all that I would get for the first year. But when we were moving in, we had a problem with the washer and I didn't have any information or anything. I had to call a plumber and pay $500, which I was not happy about. Then when I got the letter from them, I asked if they were going to cover it and they said no because I didn't call. It had to be their providers but I didn't know who their providers were because I hadn't gotten my information yet. That kind of sucked.

I used American Home Shield for the HVAC as well as for the dishwasher. The claims process was smooth. I went online, filled it out, paid the deductible and I was provided with the servicing company’s contact information. But they called. And it was a done deal. I just wanted to give AHS a try and it has been good so far. I've had a great experience and the one thing that I like most is the ability to pick your deductible. If you're comfortable with a higher deductible, then you can lower the cost of the contract. But if you want a small deductible, that's perfectly fine. The contract will be a little higher. So, that was unique. AHS sends a lot of emails though. I wish those would come through less often. But other than that, I have no real complaints.

American Home Shield has been a good company so far. When we have an issue, they take care of it immediately. But if we have to replace something, I am not 100% satisfied with how much their portion will be compared to what we need to pay out-of-pocket. Other than that, it’s not bad overall.
We have an AC that we had for a long time. Techs came and looked at it and they gave us an estimate out-of-pocket, which is almost $4,800 compared to what Home Shield will be able to cover. The estimate went to American Home Shield but when we contacted them, the representative was not able to tell me. The contractor already got approval from the home warranty for what is to be covered. But when I called them, they were not aware of it. There was confusion there. I had to call American Home Shield and they had to contact the contractor again and get the approval.
In the end, I didn’t want to spend that much money out-of-pocket to fix it so I decided to change the whole unit. The process took almost a week. Now, American Home Shield decided on our cash out and we're gonna take whatever they’re offering. We don’t have any other choice. The cash out they offered me was not really that much. We bought a new unit and another company came in and installed the whole thing.
With the whole process, we have to run after what we needed. They never contacted us and we were the ones contacting them. We’ve been waiting without an AC and the response was in two or three days. I was expecting them to call us and give us the final news instead of us calling them and being put on hold. We were waiting for the cash-out department which took half an hour. That department did not know anything about the part that they had to pay us for.
Other than that, American Home Shield has been good with some other stuff that we used them for. They sent a contractor for the garbage disposal and they replaced it. It was covered 100%. It's not a bad company. It’s just there's a lack of communication and it's not clear about what’s covered, what's not covered, and how much they're paying the value.

I've had a problem with my air conditioner, and American Home Shield sent somebody out and everything was repaired. They also sent Hospitality Heating & Air out to do the warranty stuff. I was with another company for the maintenance of my system. But then I switched to Hospitality Heating & Air and got a maintenance contract with them because I was really impressed with them.
It's really easy to deal with American Home Shield. They contact you and let you know that the part is ordered. Then the guy calls you when the part’s in and schedules an appointment. They send emails out that your part has to be ordered, or they would say, “We can't find this part anymore. We're gonna offer you money and we'll send you a list of what we got. And it won't cost you anything if you get from our list. And if you want something outside of that, we'll send you a check.” It’s a great warranty company.

They always answered all my questions and tried to find a way to help me. Because with my schedule, I called and told them, "Hey, this has happened."

I have a problem with American Home Shield's professionalism and the people that they hired to be their contractors are not dependable. AHS gave me the contractor's name and number to set up the appointment to check my washing machine. I called and called. Finally, he called me. We were able to set up an appointment for him to come out. He said that the machine needed a part, some sealant type of part. He told me that once the part gets delivered to my house, to call him so that we can set up another appointment for him to come out.
The part came in. I kept calling and calling. It kept going to voicemail. I kept leaving messages. Went on for a whole week. I had to go out of town. He called me while I was out of town and told me he was in my driveway. I said, “What are you doing in my driveway? You never even returned my call to set up an appointment. We don't have an appointment today.” He said, “I spoke to somebody.” I said, “You didn't speak to anybody.” He said, “I'm sorry. I did get your messages but I apologize.” I said, “We have to set an appointment for you to come to my house. You can't just show up at my house.”
Because I wasn't able to really depend on him, I called American Home Shield and told them that I wanted another contracting company. They gave me another contracting company. They came out and tried to put the part on for my washing machine. But it didn't fit. It was the wrong size. But they assessed the washing machine and said that there was nothing wrong with it because it never drained any water again after that one time. So they said that probably, the drain area was not clean. They cleaned it out and I haven't had a problem since. That's been a month now.
I have a problem now with my dishwasher. I asked for JDS because they came so quickly for my washing machine. That claim went in on the 31st. I was trying to find out why it was taking so long for them to call me to set up an appointment. First I was told that there were parts ordered. I said, “Why would you order parts when a tech was never out here?”
I got really upset. I got to the point where I was getting tired of them telling me, “We called JDS and we keep getting the answering machine. We left messages.” That was going on for a whole week. I said, “Can you get me another contracting company? Because seeing that you're not able to get in contact with JDS, then you need to get another contractor” They got my $100 and then they were giving me the runaround. I said I needed to speak to a supervisor. When I spoke with the supervisor, the supervisor was trying to tell me the same story. I got very upset with the supervisor and I said, “If I don't get anybody to call me by tomorrow, I will be canceling this contract.” As soon as I got off the phone with the supervisor, somebody called me and set up an appointment.

My experience has been fine with American Home Shield so far. The initial problem was a leak in the Jacuzzi tub. It wound up being the drain though, after the contractor troubleshot it. The tech had to install a new drain and drain plug. The seal was eroded around the drain itself, so the plug wouldn’t seal correctly. And while they were replacing that, they found a cracked pipe that they replaced too. They were fantastic. It was a great service.

I submitted a claim for the air conditioner through American Home Shield's website. That was a Sunday and they assigned it that night. On Monday morning, I got a call from the place they assigned it to. On Monday afternoon, a guy came out and figured out what was wrong with it. American Home Shield reached out after that to let me know that I was on the hook for most of the Freon cost then the company called me and scheduled a time to come out, replace the part and fill up the freon. It was straightforward. Having American Home Shield gives peace of mind that you're not going to have a large expenditure at one time. But in the end, it's most definitely in your benefit just to save that money you're spending on the American Home Shield warranty in an account and use that to pay for stuff that happens to your house.

We've had issues with the heating and the air since we bought our place two years ago. Home Shield kept just fixing it but it kept breaking down. It went out on November 4 and I called the home warranty. It took forever to get somebody and when they did, they kept making him change out parts. He was the second repairman to say we needed new units. Home Shield kept trying to do bandage jobs.
Eventually, after repairing everything that could be repaired, they said to put a new unit outside. After that, we still had issues with it. There were days that it didn't work. It seemed the colder it was, the harder it was for the unit to work. Our heating unit was 26 years old and it's not compatible with the outside unit anymore because that has more electronics. That took five months and we didn't have heat.
I didn't find Home Shield caring enough. Customer service is reading off of a script to you and it's very obvious because all they would talk in the same type of wording over and over. They're like broken records so you can't have a conversation with them. One kept saying recall and I had to explain what a recall is and they still didn't understand.
On the whole, I like the fact of having a home warranty. But Home Shield's customer service is what made this drag out. I really would like to get somewhere with customer service because if I stay with them, I don't want to keep having these issues. Customer service sucked. I actually had to call sales to try and get somewhere. Finally, the tech was able to replace the blower on the inside of our heating unit. But I have to have the tech come back out because it's whistling when it turns on. It's a high pitch so it wakes everybody up. I had other work done with Home Shield and I was fine. That was in the very beginning. I had a claim on my refrigerator and techs came out and did some work on the freezer. Now I just wish Home Shield had somebody that we could talk to.

I had a couple of switches that had gone bad that had to be replaced. The tech from Best Heating and Cooling looked those up and he thought there was possibly knob-and-tube wiring involved. I had a separate electrician come out and take a peek at that. It turns out that it's not knob-and-tube, it's just older, cloth-covered Romex. But it can look like a knob-and-tube when it's in a switch. There was confusion but the repairs are great and the tech was very nice and professional. He just mixed up the kind of wiring that it was but he knew his stuff. If he saw the wiring downstairs, he would have known it wasn't know-and-tube. The switches work fine and they're safe.
There was another time I had a really old stove that went bad about two weeks after I moved in. AHS sent somebody out who worked really hard to try to find parts. They couldn't and AHS gave me the value of that stove and I was able to replace it. I also ended up replacing the refrigerator. There wasn't anything wrong with it, there just wasn't space to put a modern-sized stove and a giant fridge like what was there. The money that they gave for the stove really helped and it took care of that. I've been really satisfied. Having AHS, it's nice to have that peace of mind.

We called American Home Shield again to send someone. They sent another person and that person did a very good job. He fixed the AC and everything has been great since then.

I've had American Home Shield on this house in Pennsylvania and we had American Home Shield's sister company on our house in Jersey. It's a great product and I wouldn't not have one on my home. Recently, we made a claim because the dishwasher wouldn't turn off. The only way to get the machine to stop was to shut the breaker off in the house. The dishwasher people were good. They came out, looked at the machine and determined that a part was needed. They went back and got the approval through American Home Shield. As soon as the part came in, they came in and installed it. They were able to fix everything that needed to be done including some wiring.
When I did the phone call, they had me relay with a tech via a live video call on American Home Shield’s side. It seemed a little redundant if the people had to come out anyway to see what was wrong. I'm not sure what benefit that had. I also wish that it hadn't taken two weeks in between the initial come out and the final, but it's not their fault.

The claims process with American Home Shield went very smoothly. I have dealt with them before on a water heater and the company they had was out to rip me off. I have two water heaters and the repair guy said both of them were out. But my son looked at it and said that there was nothing wrong with one of them. And sure enough, there was nothing wrong with it. So, it depends on the people that they send. It seems that they were out to get AHS’ money and my money. So, I wasn't happy with that.
I was given a quote of $300 and I said that I could live with that. Then, it took six months and I was without a water heater. Nobody cared. When the water heater finally came in, the guy came back and said I owed them $900. I said that we agreed to $300 and when I called AHS to cancel, they said that I could do a cash payout. The people who answered the phone was trying to get you to get frustrated and give up, which is what I did. I said that I would do the cash payout on the water heater and within three days, I had a brand-new water heater and it cost me $100.
For this other company that AHS had for the stove, they were aware of what they needed to do and they did it, and it was just like the commercial. I was impressed. They cared about me as a customer. I was going to cancel my account if I had been dealt again with the gas stove like they did with the gas water heater. I had another claim on a microwave and the people that AHS sent, once again, didn't want to fix it or said they couldn't fix it. I got the runaround.

They verified my email address was correct, emailed me while I was on the phone with them, and it did come in. So I'm pleased overall.
I've had AHS for several years, and I've had to use them only about four times, and overall, I've been very pleased each time. I did have a plumbing issue, and the contractor they sent out was not able to fix it correctly, did not communicate well, and came out two or three times trying to fix it but never did. I finally got them to send out another contractor who took care of it within 10 minutes. So while I'm very happy with them, some of the contractors could be vetted better.

My most recent claim with American Home Shield was for the fridge. The techs were very timely and respectful. Overall, this home warranty contracts great and dependable companies to repair. The service is great but I wish certain things were covered that aren't covered. For instance, my garage door. The garage door took a fall on us. The contract states the rails and the motor are covered but the door itself isn't. That cost me a good chunk of change and I'm currently just a student so it's hard. Also, it's hectic to get through the American Home Shield phone line every now and then. Other than that, I'm satisfied.

When we had the freeze, my unit had went out. I got American Home Shield after that. It started leaking from the faucet under the cabinet, and there was water leaking.

I had a trash compactor that went out and they replaced it. The technician that came out initially and checked everything was great. He decided that it was impossible to fix. He informed AHS about it and they supplied a new one to me. I also had a replacement of an air handler system on one of my air conditioner units. That took a long time.

It's always easy with American Home Shield. We had a fan that was running even though we had the unit turned off, and it was always cold air even though the heater was supposed to be on. It generally came on around 9:00 at night or in the middle of the night. It was odd hours. I logged in over the internet and did a service request on the 26th, which was a Saturday, and someone came out on Monday. We got lucky they had a cancellation. They went up and investigated, and it turned out that our unit has some kind of fan on it that, on its own, turns on and off when it's needed to do that. There was nothing wrong with the unit, apparently. It felt cold because it was cold outside.

We had another plumber come out and he told us we needed to replace all the showerheads and all the water faucets in the house. I ended up replacing a couple of them and it didn't do anything, which was when we refiled with American Home Shield. It turned out to be the valve in the master shower. When it was originally put in, it was oriented the wrong way so it was letting cold water flow into the hot water side. Everything seems to be working. So, to that point, I'm happy.
We had a couple of different things before that didn't go exactly how I had planned for them to go as far as communication. We had a septic problem on our last house and one of the points that the young lady had made was AHS doesn't cover normal wear and tear. Then when our refrigerator went out, I called and the gentleman said they only cover normal wear and tear. But other than that, everything on this has gone great. There are a lot of stuff that our regular insurance company doesn't cover that home warranty does. I'm dealing with things right now with my regular insurance company and I have a $1,000 deductible. With the home warranty company, it's $75. It makes it a ton easier.

Well, I was burned again. First with First American Home Warranty and now American Home Shield! Stop wasting your time shopping around for these companies, they all put language in their terms to deny your claim. AHS is the worst of them all!! Paid the 100.00 deductible to unclog a PVC pipe from my sink, the idiot who came was going to fix it and he didn't even have a long enough snake to unclog, said he would have to call AMS to get another company out here to fix. Then my claim was denied. Called the next day to cancel with AHS next day, hold time was 50 min or longer and one person even hung up on me, and they charged me for two months after that. Thought it was cancelled!
After repeated attempts to talk to supervisors they told me I had to pay till term was up. AHS is a scam and most others are too. Don't waste your time!! I'm totally done with these so called services. AHS is a really bad company, told my friend that I referred to AHS and he is going to cancel too before something bad happens.

A-1 Plumbing has been nothing but nice. I was very happy that they were very prompt. They were also very courteous and helpful. There was something broken on the sprayer in the kitchen faucet. They needed to order that part and a brand new faucet for the laundry room. We got the part and the plumber changed it. Also, the faucet has a little screen on the end of it and it had lime. I asked the plumber if he knew what I could do about it. He went ahead and took it off for me and told me to put in vinegar and soda. Sure enough, that did the trick. By the time they left, it was already cleaned. He put it back on there for me. That was not part of what he was supposed to do and he didn't charge me.

The two burners of the stove were not working properly. Then the microwave was not warming up the food. Both of them were fixed already.
Today, I called in a claim for the refrigerator and this is the first time that American Home Shield didn't call me right away. They told me they were gonna send me the same company that came before for the appliances, but they haven't called me. So I'm still waiting. Even though I tried to call them, I couldn't get in touch with no one. There was also an instance when I put the claim for the appliances, and it took about three weeks before the guy came back to fix it.

The person who came in knew what he was doing and told me what he thought the issue was. I knew exactly what they were looking to do. He said that the heater has to be replaced because once it starts dripping, that means the tank has eroded.

American Home Shield's customer service quality is mixed. From the standpoint of their agents on the telephone, I don't like that they now have people that we can't understand. They outsourced it to different countries, and there were language barriers. I understand that they can't control the technicians that come into your house, but we do have more and more bilingual people and you have a hard time understanding them. On the customer service end, I've had people calling with their kids screaming. I can understand that better than not being able to understand the person.
Now that they have gone to the virtual technician where a technician doesn't even come out to your house to try to diagnose an issue, it's hard enough having to do that yourself, and then trying to visit with somebody that doesn't speak English to try to tell them what's wrong and what you want. It is a nightmare and I don't like that. They need to employ people in America. The name of their company is American Home Shield and their people should be working from America.
In my most recent claim, our pool pump was leaking, so Aeon came in. The tech knew what he was doing on it. He was very nice. His customer service was was top-notch and he did a very good job. For what he did, he was perfect. He will represent their company well. Lately, we had a big claim. They've always told me, "If you've got something wrong with an appliance or something, try to wait and save and get everything at one time because you get one deductible." I didn't plan on it, but a lot of things went out at one time. The handles came off on my dishwashers and refrigerator that we bought at the same time. It was loose on both of them. Because my oven went out at Christmas, I said, "Well, when I call it in, I'll have them both done."
In the meantime, the very next day, the ice maker went out on my refrigerator, and then my dryer went out. Then, at Christmas time, the same time my oven went out, the vent hood went out. Then, the pool pump went out, which was a different call than the appliance call. Then, my garbage disposal went out, which was a different call. My garage door opener went out. It was like, "Okay, the house is falling apart." But yesterday, somebody came and put the vent hood in. This all started in December and the refrigerator is not complete. The bad thing is the actual technician was not the technician that I talked to on the virtual technician thing. He's not with the company. But they brought a part just to fix the part that you push to bring the water out. That didn't fix it because, now, the ice isn't coming out. So, he's gonna have to come out and he had to order a part for the ice maker.
On the dishwasher, the door was going all the way down and we told him that and he didn't bring that part. So, he's got two parts to bring back. But he had brought an extra part in case it didn't fix the dryer. Parts are hard to come by, and so he had to wait. We just got the oven installed this week. The oven and teh dryer were the biggest things and both of those just got fixed and they went out in December. Part of that is because of the part, but also, part of it was that they didn't need the part that they were waiting on on the dryer. They were waiting on something they didn't need because they don't come out.
Then, they wouldn't come out until they had the parts from every appliance. What happened is they had to replace the oven and on the vent hood, they said all they need to do is fix a light. I said, "What are you talking about? The lights work. They just don't work all the time." Finally, we got it all straight, but that was the problem. I guess the picture that I took looked black. They bought a black handle for the dishwasher and everything is all stainless steel. I said, "You don't even need a new handle. All you need to do is show me how to put the screw on. And I saved the nut. All you need to do is show me how to -- I'm going to fix it."
The experience with our air conditioning unit was the only really bad one and they gave us such a little bit of money. This one took so long as well. Then, at one time, they sent a man that broke our granite and we ended up just settling with him, and then we just had to have it repaired. Other than those, I love the company.

I used American Home Shield a few times. I was assigned a contractor to come out and fulfill the job. In those times, it was done. One claim I had was for a faucet that would leak water even when it wasn't on. Even when I wasn't running any water in the house, I'd have water underneath the sink and all of the countertops. Instead of booking online and filling out all this stuff, I would prefer if I could have a number to call and speak to someone directly. Because maybe in that instance I'm describing my problem, it would relate to another service. I said it was a leaking pipe when actually it was a leaking faucet. If you speak with someone who's knowledgeable in what you're talking about, they would direct you or assign the right contractor.
The techs diagnosed the problem then ordered a part and came back. We thought we might have to order a whole new faucet, which I didn't wanna do because they don't make that color anymore. The techs tried very hard to do a fix so that I could use the faucet while the part was on order. That didn't work but and I commend them for trying. In the end, the issue was fixed.

Shortly after I called them, I received a call from the maintenance person and it was a positive experience. I just don't like to keep following up when I'm paying $80 a month.

But from AHS side, there was no call back to me and it's been more than a week. I was expecting AHS to follow up on that one because I don't know the exact comments in the system. The contractor said it might go for a month or for two years.
I put a case for my backyard lights. The timer was not working. It was not triggering. The technician came and he said the problem was electrical which is inside but they are going to address that only if it is outside. So even though it was on my wall, he didn't address it. I wasted my money on that one. I didn't get time to follow up with AHS because if I call them, it takes very long time. Sometimes it is one hour or so. So that particular timer equipment is still not working.

There was a leak underneath the heater, and it was causing some issues. So, Express Plumbing came out, diagnosed it, and then, they filed the claim. They took pictures, and they replaced the water heater. This is the first claim I have with American Home Shield that something got fixed, but I like that they partner with local companies and that they give you an option to choose the company you want to work with. For the most part, when they assign someone, it's usually professional. So, I like that.
There was a claim that wasn't covered. It was fine. The person that AHS sent out still gave advice on how to deal with the issue that I was having. So, it's fine. I just didn't totally understand exactly what was covered and what wasn’t. Overall, AHS is a good company. I would just advise people to get specifics and understand what parts of the coverage apply to them.

American Home Shield has good and timely service. My bathroom lights were strobe lighting. I already tried changing the bulbs, making sure that they were screwed and tight. It was still strobing. When the guy came here, he put the new light bulb in and it was fine. He just screwed the bulb in and it was good. He told me nothing was wrong. My electricity was fine. So, I paid $100 service call for him to come out and do what I already did. And there was no issue.
I made a different service order one time and the people told me they wouldn't be able to schedule me for two weeks. I called AHS back and said, "I want you guys to give me a different service person." And they said, "Well, we have to call them first and then we'll call you back." So I just said, "Forget it” and kept the people that were scheduled for me. And they were able to get the people call me back and were able to get me in four days.

I like American Home Shield. They are very on top of it and accommodating. They're a good company so far and it’s way better than the one I have in my home. My other company that I do for this house is always questioning things and makes it difficult. When I submit a claim, AHS assigns a plumber and provides the number but usually, the plumber will call to schedule something once the claim goes in. A lot of times when you call a plumber, that costs you an absolute fortune. I had four different issues and they came and fixed them and it cost me $100, which is the deductible. I happened to have four issues so, I only had to pay $100. So, it was great.

American Home Shield's rates were decent. They weren’t exceptionally high as far as what I could afford. I can afford maybe to scrape together 100 bucks to have a serviceman take a look at my dishwasher if it's not operating. And that's what I almost need to do next month because I'm on a fixed income. I'm retired. So I don't have a lot of money to work with. Right now, my dishwasher is accumulating water in the bottom of it and it caused a leak downstairs in the basement.

AHS gets people out there right away and they're also responsive. I also get to choose my deductible. I can pay more per month and have a lower deductible, or less per month and have a higher deductible. I had a dishwasher that broke a couple of months ago and it couldn’t get repaired because they didn't make the parts anymore. AHS offered to provide a dishwasher for me on their list, on their website, but I didn't like any dishwashers they had. They weren't the quality I was looking for. They offered a cash buyout to get my own dishwasher. But in order to get the money, I had to show them the receipt and the installation stuff from wherever I bought the dishwasher from, which wasn't made apparent to me beforehand, but wasn't a problem, because I replaced the dishwasher and I have the receipt. With my recent claim with Integrity Air, I had a condensate line that was blocked and they fixed that up in a heartbeat.

I previously had a warranty with American Home Shield in my home in Savannah, Georgia for five years then we moved here in August and one of the first things I did was take out a warranty. We used them one time on a washing machine. The guy came out and said that the issue was a small float valve and that he would order it and it would take a week. He then came out, put it in, and everything worked fine.
Since we moved here, we've had our second claim wherein the AC/heat pump has gone out on our unit and no heat would come on at all. I called in on Saturday the 26th and spoke with American Home Shield. ACE Heating came out Monday the 28th, diagnosed that it was a computer board on the unit itself, then turned it in to American Home Shield. AHS's parts department supposedly looked through the inventory in the United States and found out that part’s no longer made. It went back to the adjuster, then it went back to the parts department. It was back and forth.
I have been calling American Home Shield almost every day and ACE Heating. I'm caught in limbo, because talking to somebody at the call center, they don't seem to understand that they've got to give approval for ACE Heating to replace the whole unit, because you can't just replace the heat pump. They've already told me that the entire unit is gonna have to be replaced, but ACE Heating can't do anything until they're given the go ahead. We've been without heat for the last two weeks. During the daytime, our temperatures get up in the 70s, which is okay, but at night, it drops down to the 50s. We get up in the morning that’s anywhere from 50 to 52 degrees, and I have to turn on our electric oven to try and heat up our kitchen area.
The problem is that the call center being in India or the Philippines, they don't quite understand the urgency. There are also problems with the language. I called and said, “Look, what is the status?” The first time, they told me, “You need to speak with the technician.” I said, “Okay. Let me speak with the technician,” then they gave me the number for ACE Heating & Cooling. I said, “No. Do you have a technician that I can speak to?” Eventually, we understood they were talking about ACE Heating & Cooling.
ACE Heating & Cooling has been very nice. They've been very patient with my phone calls, saying, “We have not heard anything. As soon as we do, we’ll let you know.” Twice now, the two different girls that talked to me said, “Please hold while I speak to ACE.” Ten minutes later, they said, “I have talked with them. And we've got it straight, and everything is authorized.” I called back a couple hours later to check with ACE, and they said, “We've received no correspondence by email, text, or voice.” It's a runaround, and I can't find the number to call the home office to report this problem to.

I was getting ready to terminate American Home Shield. Because I had a claim and I paid them the deductible, and the contractor came out last Monday. And Wednesday, the contractor called me, “I’m not on American Home Shield warranty,” and asked me, said I had to come up with money out of my pocket. I said, “What are you talking about? Did you talk to American Home Shield.” I said, “No. They didn’t send me any information.” So when I called them, they told me there were some modifications made, and that I had to come up with $485 out of my pocket. It was, “Okay, so when was y’all gonna tell me that? And why should the contractor be contacting me instead of you all?”
The next day, Thursday, I talked to AHS again. I told them it was ridiculous. Because I was out of my house for four days. I filed the claim on Monday. They didn’t come and fix it until Friday. And I told the person that that was ridiculous, and the way that they did the business wasn't right, and on Friday after they did the work, that I will end my contract with them. The person said, “Okay. Well, you call back Friday and do that,” and they hung up the phone. I called back Thursday evening and they were supposed to do a call review. Because the person didn’t record anything and I didn’t get the name. So I was very disappointed in AHS, and the way they handled my claim. I was told that they were a good company.

I mainly decided to get a home warranty because of air conditioning and heating issues. I wasn’t happy with my home warranty. I switched to American Home Shield but they've gone backwards a little bit lately. When there's a problem, somebody can come out and they may have that part in stock. The providers told me that they can't change the part because American Home Shield wants to send them their own part. It can sometimes add several days to a week to a fix that could be done on the same day. The only improvement would be to just allow the local providers to source parts if they have them on hand. AHS does not do that to try to save on cost. But there should be a good balance between saving on cost and long delays for customers.
I had a claim that took several visits. First, they told me the fan motor was bad so they replaced it. But that didn’t work. The techs were gonna come back and replace a control board. Before they replaced the control board, they sent a third person out to verify that diagnosis. He said, “No, it's not the control board, it's the thermostat.” The thermostat had to be sourced, which took a while. A gentleman came out and replaced the thermostat and it still didn't work. They then said, “Your control board is bad," so they had to get a control board. The tech had to come back out and fix that. It took probably five visits to get that issue resolved. Shortly thereafter, my other AC unit had a problem. That was just a bad relay. But everything seems to be working okay right now.
When you have a home warranty, you do not have to incur the entire cost if a major repair comes around. Most of my claims with American Home Shield have been heating and AC and they have been different problems. I have an older system. I do my claims online and it's easy.

I did a claim with American Home Shield and the guy who came out said that if the issue was the breaker, he couldn’t replace it and I would have to go and buy a new one. I could buy one from him too and he could replace it. But why would I want to do that if he was supposed to come and do the whole repair? That didn’t make sense to me and I was taken aback by his saying that. But then he referred me to an appliance company.
A tech came and he asked me to turn the thing back off. I didn’t even realize he might try to do something to the microwave. I heard it when it clicked off again before I even came in. I went back and I clicked it back on. By the time I got back in here, he was taking it apart. I stood there and watched him. He replaced everything that needed to be replaced so quickly.
When you have a home warranty, there is comfort because I know it’s there. I didn’t have to deal with the issue. At the end of the day, it’s like having a handyman in the pocket. The interesting thing is you can go online and do a claim. One of them was electrical and the other one was plumbing. I tried to do it online or on the app, but it was limiting me. For plumbing, I either could tell them my sinks, how many sinks, and one toilet, or so many toilets and one sink. The issue I had was with all toilets and all sinks. I called in because I didn’t want to have two service charges for plumbing. That was very easy to go through.
The first time I did it, I had a huge list. The rep took it all down and said, “Well, let me just let you know you got to pay a deductible for each one of these ‘cause they’re different.” It was electrical, plumbing and appliance. Once she explained it to me, that made sense and I was good. I love American Home Shield's system.
I had an issue with a contractor but it worked its way out so I didn’t have to go back to American Home Shield. I have something on my list I want to go back and ask them because of what was said. I have a tankless water heater and I was without hot water for a month. That whole situation had to end up being escalated through the plumber that came in. They didn’t have the parts. Then they ordered the wrong part. They had to order another part then they came back and said, “No, we need the other part. Now, we got to come back next week.” It was a comedy of errors.
The very last person who came was the first person who came who had an issue. I didn’t know that there was a wash mesh in my tankless water heater and that was a whole blow-up situation. Finally, they realized that they needed all the parts they ordered. At the end of the day, they ended up having to go back to the office and get the other parts that they said they didn’t need and my tank got fixed.

I've had very bad experiences with American Home Shield. I had a massive water leak that flooded my whole yard. They sent five different people out there and none of them fixed it. American Home Shield sent two HVAC technicians and two plumbers. The plumber came in the first time and said it was the AC, but the AC guy came in and said it was the plumbing. It happened two times in a row. The final AC guy said, "Hey, I have no idea what it is. We're gonna send a home inspector out here." But the home inspector couldn't find the problem. I had to fix it myself. The city water department came out and we tracked down the leak and fixed it. But when I fixed it myself, American Home Shield told me that I couldn't. So then, I broke it again, and then they sent a final person out there that tried to not fix it but I didn't make him leave until he fixed it.
It took six different people to solve a problem that should have been fixed by one person. I had to pay $75 five different times, but I only got reimbursed twice when they told me I was gonna get reimbursed for the whole thing and that they were gonna get the company to pay me back for it. This wasn't the first time this has happened. When I first got in the house, I had a problem with my toilet and I ended up installing a whole brand-new toilet. But American Home Shield had three separate plumbers come out there and I only got reimbursed for one. They sent incompetent people. I'm a plumber and a mechanic myself and I found the problem in five minutes. I got to the point where I got sick of waiting.
American Home Shield should improve their customer service. They hung up on me four times in a row. I get somebody on the phone I trust there, talk to somebody, and they just hang up on me. I sat there and waited each time and they never called me back. So then, I called them again.

There was a leak on the water pressure regulators where it comes into the house. It reduces the pressure down to 40 or 50 pounds. The same company replaced it last June of 2021 as extra work when they replaced the water heater. This particular device was not covered under our warranty. So we paid extra for it at the time. Prime Plumbing came, and the issue was just a small leak. It was just a drop every hour, and they said that their labor was only warranted for a month, which is a very short time. I've since learned that the part that they used has a one year warranty. But I don't think they knew that at the time. When it came to replacing it, the last quote they gave me was $500 to replace it. I complained to the plumber a little bit and to the person there. They said they could lower it to 400. But that was still too much money for a half hour job. So I haven't done anything. I'm just watching the leak.
We've had the water heater replaced under the warranty. So that's good. It was very quick service. We appreciate that. We've had the furnace and air conditioner serviced also. We used to call American Home Shield to submit our claims. But then I realized they have an online portal and it's quicker to go in it to request service. Overall, American Home Shield's customer support is very good. They're responsive and they looked into things when I called. But it's different people each time I call.

I was among several customers who were waiting for products to come off a ship someplace. Once the product came in, the issue was taken care of within 24 hours. I had a very good experience with this contractor and I would use them at any time and refer them to anybody.

The hardest thing at first was because of how they outsource a lot of their work, so a lot of times, I get people from different countries. They get tired of me saying “Excuse me? Excuse me? Excuse me? What did you say?” But other than that, I have no problem. AHS just sent a plumber because one of my toilet bowls wasn't working properly. After the plumber fixed it, it was still making a sizzling noise so I called AHS again and somebody got in touch with me that same day. The contractors were courteous. They asked if they needed to put on shields on their shoes. Plus, they had masks on. However, AHS's response time is not cool. When I put my requests in, they already snatch my $100 from American Express in the blink of an eye as quickly as I get service. But the best thing about AHS is that I don't have to stress about it when something breaks down.

American Home Shield is a great service to have and I have recommended it to my friends who own homes. I had it a long time ago when I first bought my house. Then I moved around and in 2020, I restarted an account and they're really, really good for me. The claim with my furnace went really well because not only did they do their job well, but I was in the hospital for an emergency for five days, and they were able to work around that and work with me. They were able to rearrange and pick a better time after I was released, so I was very happy about that.
I like the fact that I can do a claim online. You can log into your account and quickly put in a claim. Then American Home Shield will get the appropriate people to call you quickly.

Terrible experience attempting to get my home heating system repaired. First called contracted damaged our system and after several calls a second opinion contractor has come out to look at our system and we have been denied coverage. The company doesn’t seem to understand that the first contractor caused the damage and attempting to talk to customer service is a horrific experience. They can’t seem to understand the problem and they only read from the script they are given from either their own report or from the contractor.
It’s been 5 days since the initial call for our thermostat to get fixed and dealing with the customer service department has been a nightmare. After numerous calls and basically getting zero help we are considering calling our own contractor to get our heat fixed. Look elsewhere for home warranty and avoid AHS at all costs. I would give a zero star rating if I could and I will be calling the BBB after this fiasco.

With AHS, I like having the security of knowing I can have my appliances repaired. They had a bit of a long repair time to come in for my washer, but I understand that last-minute stuff.

The techs were all fine and polite.
I've contacted AHS and they gave me a list I can choose from, and then it shows anywhere from zero to 1,000+, if I want to pay for a better line. They also said that if I didn't find one on their list that I was happy with that I would get something like $124.68 that I can get reimbursed for if I pick one out on my own.

American Home Shield has replaced some things that needed to be fixed. There was a problem with our fridge. Our fridge isn't that old, but part of the water and ice system was messed up, so they fixed it. So, certain fixes have been good and made sense. When the toilet was clogged and had a leak, the tech fixed both things. Everything got fixed up fine. But the HVAC system has just been a Band-Aid over and over, when it's getting older as an overall system and it's getting to the point where we just want it to be replaced.
We continually have problems with our HVAC system. And we're waiting for AHS to go ahead and replace the HVAC and not just keep patching it together. They keep replacing pieces and parts instead of actually replacing the whole system. They said it's a very old system that it’s getting time to replace. And they just replaced little to get it just enough to run. But always, every few months, we have to get more fixed on it. It has been a year since we moved in. They just fixed another part of it last week. I have brought up in the past about replacing it. And AHS said, “Well, it needs to be a complete system failure of some type where just replacing parts or a piece is gonna get it running for a while.” Because I still pay the $75 each time to get part of it repaired. At what point do we just replace everything?

I'm going through something with American Home Shield now. S & S Appliance Parts & Service came out and said that the damper was stuck open. Because it was freezing, it caused the damper casing to crack so water is leaking all over my floor. This has been doing this about almost two weeks now. I'm getting water every day and every night. When I get up in the morning, it's wet. When I come home from work, it's wet. Even though I got stuff down, it's drenched.
When the guy came out on the 28th, he said that the part was discontinued. He reported that back and called me back 30 minutes later. He said, "I reported to American Home Shield that the part is discontinued. They said they were gonna research the part." Come to find out, American Home Shield went on eBay and found one. They had it shipped to S & S, which was supposed to get there today. I called S & S and they said they didn't know anything about it because American Home Shield, on the date S & S came out, told them to close it because they couldn't order the part in, where the part was discontinued. I called back to American Home Shield just a minute ago. The lady said the part was shipped out there. She called S & S and they said they got to find it. Now, I still don't have a part and I fear that water's running all over my floor.
The refrigerator's over 20 years old. They didn't fix it when they came in July. They put a temporary part on it and ordered the new part. They wanted to charge me another service fee, but the work was never done. The technician said he was gonna call me and tell me what he meant. But he never came back out here and put the permanent piece back on my refrigerator. At this point, I'm feeling the refrigerator I bought when I moved in the house 20 years ago is on its last life. They're gonna keep continuing to piece and piece it together, and I keep having a problem after problem. I'm so dissatisfied with American Home Shield. When they fix this refrigerator, I'm canceling them. They don't have a problem deducting that $60 out my account every month. If I have floor damage which they say is not covered, I'm gonna sue them because they're the reason for it.

He said, "Because I cut the pipe off." He didn't do it right, and now, my water pressure is down.
I was very upset because the AHS rep said, "Well, what is the problem?" I said, "You can't help me with the problem because I've talked to you guys several times. I need to speak to a manager."

I called American Home Shield back a few days later, explained it again to the customer service rep and that I wanted a tune up. But I still got the same answer, "Oh, we don't give that anymore." So I asked to speak with a supervisor. The rep said, "Oh, would you like to escalate this to...?" I replied, "Sure. Escalate it." I got another person and I had to go over the whole story again. She said, “Is there anything else I can help you with?" But she was just trying to get that answer so she could hang up. So I said, "Yeah. You can help me. I need help. Your company." I told her that I was frustrated and I felt that I was very taken advantage of.
Now, I called the 800 customer service number and pushed the button for sales. I immediately got an answer. I got a very clear speaking person and I told her what was going on. She was very apologetic and sympathetic. She told me, "I will absolutely escalate this. I'll get this to my supervisor. And we'll have someone call you back within 48 hours." But I've heard nothing.
It's almost a month passed since I was told that I was eligible to get my furnace tuned up. That was part of the reason I did the membership with the platinum service. I'm ready to cancel the platinum agreement, get my refund prorated and go back to Fidelity because American Home Shield has not done anything. It's not very good business they're doing, so far.

Our garbage disposal was not working properly. My husband tried to reset it, but it was still not working properly. So we had to have a somebody come out and look at it. He came out, fixed the garbage disposal, and it's working fine now. He did a good job. He was fast and friendly.
Thanks for reaching out to provide that feedback. I am glad the contractors followed through with the appointment that was set but happier for you that your issue has been resolved.

I had an issue with my washing machine and I called American Home Shield, and they made the appointment. The only problem with them is that it's kind of hard to get people. They had a long waiting list and they couldn't get me for a week. So, I called and asked them if there was anybody that could do the service sooner. They found somebody that could service it sooner, and he came out. He was really nice. He did what he had to do. He fixed what I called him for, but he noticed that something else was going out, and he fixed that, too. So, I like him.

I like that it's a one flat fee, and a flat fee for every service call. I recently had a leaky AC unit and a not working AC unit. It took the contractor four days to come out. It took the tech 20 minutes to fix it. The units are doing good. I'm gonna continue American Home Shield.

I was really frustrated last year. We had our main sewer line go out and I had main sewer insurance. But the break was only in the road, it wasn’t on our property. Because of where we lived, they made it a rule 10 years ago that the line is still ours, even into the street, because they're having so many of them fail. I thought that they were going to at least cover us, or at least maybe even help out. But AHS did absolutely nothing. We had to replace our entire main sewer line ourselves, which was very frustrating because we had that insured specifically. We had to pay almost $20,000 out of pocket when we had that item insured. But other than that, we haven't had any issues. Everything else has been fine. But that almost made us walk away completely. We were gonna stop after the year, then they offered to cut down costs for us. So, we decided to stay another year.

So far, it's been good with American Home Shield. My oven was smelling like gas when I turned it on and we got that fixed thru them. But when the person was there fixing it, he scratched my cabinet doors and said somebody would get ahold of me last week to get that fixed but I never heard anything. I called that appliance repair company yesterday and today. Today, I finally left a message but haven't heard back from them. On the other claim, our hot water heater kept shutting off. I called American Home Shield on Friday and there was somebody there to fix it within two hours.

American Home Shield said my refrigerator was deemed unrepairable. But it has only been five years. But my understanding of the warranty program is they replace it with the same value of the one I had. And when they say the same value, they meant depreciation, the same value that it was five years ago. That was not my understanding. However, I was wrong. I called AHS back and told them I needed more money because I could not come up with that $700 that would be the difference for the exact refrigerator. And the rep said, “Well, let me see.” She gave me more money. And I thought, “If I hadn’t been complaining, they wouldn't have given me that more money.” There are some people not like me, and they would just accept what AHS would say and take the lesser amount. But in this house, I could not afford that.
The only complaint I have is the check I'm getting from AHS is taking way too long. I’m without a refrigerator. Luckily, I had a bottom freezer, and a couple of days ago, that quit. I had to borrow a smaller refrigerator from someone, but nobody has a smaller freezer. So, we are limited as to what we can eat. And even when I get the check, Sears would have to order the refrigerator. So, it's going to be another couple of weeks after I get the check. Other than that, Sears has been great. The tech got the job done.

I was with AHS before. I went back to them because the one that I had really screwed me over. I got a better policy now with them because as soon as this weather clears up, I've called them to come out and fix my house. That was what they promised they would do since I was switching to them and took the better program they were offering. They also gave me a senior discount.

The first time the technician came, it was raining. He said that it would corrupt the system if he had to go open up the refrigerants. So, we got it put off for another day when it wasn’t gonna rain. Then a second technician came and he told me that he found the leaks, and they were more than one leak, and that he found it in a coil, and that the coil would need to be replaced. My system is old, so it's gonna cost a lot for the refrigerant because that particular refrigerant is no longer being made. And so, whatever is in supply, it's like $175 per pound. American Home Shield is only paying $10 a pound, so I would have to pay the other $165 a pound. It's probably gonna take 10 to 13 pounds because of the size of the system to fill it back up. He said he’d give me a quote for a new system if I just wanna change the outside unit, that he’d give me a quote for the outside unit because the warranty company is gonna pay to fix the coil. So I accepted that.

The service has been crappy. My hot water tank started leaking, so I called to have it repaired and the plumber that American Home Shield assigned me was Nussbaumer Plumbing. They couldn't get me in until Friday, and that was a Tuesday, and it was starting to flood my basement. I called American Home Shield, and they said that they would prioritize it as an emergency and if they couldn't find anybody within four hours, then I was welcome to find my own plumber.
They never called me back at all. I found my own plumber, had it done the next day and when I called to find out how to submit my receipt, they told me that they never approved for me to find my own plumber. I said, "Well, your person on the phone said that I could find one if they couldn't find one for me." I've been waiting for them to reimburse me, and they haven't done so yet. They've been saying that they had to review that phone call, and they haven't. I've been asking for the call review since January, and I keep calling them every week.
American Home Shield has done other repairs for me, and all of those have been fine, but this one's really sticking out to me right now. Also, it would be great if they didn't have their call center in Asia. Not to offend anybody, but it's really hard talking to somebody that sometimes is just reading from a script and doesn't know what else to say. Not only that, you also can't talk to anybody who's above that person to get anything done when you do have a problem.

The tech just changed the flapper in the toilet and didn't check the toilet and we've got a leak. Also, we needed some faucets changed and we had changed the order that morning. So I realized he probably didn't get it and told me he didn't have time. But he said put another call in and he would come back. We did but he didn't. So, we went with another company, but they never even called to set an appointment. I'm on my third company this morning and they haven’t called. They have not responded at all, so I'm calling today to get the fourth company.
I've been with American Home Shield for 22 years. I brought a lot of people to them when they first started out. What I don't like is having to speak to someone in the Philippines. I hate talking to people that read a cue card. Everybody says they don't read cue cards. Then why do they say the same thing over and over? They have no authority. And their queue, I would fire their computer programmers.
I spent six months fighting with AHS to replace my furnace. The coil interfaces between the air conditioning and the furnace and is partly responsible for pumping the air through the system. They did not replace the coil. They only replaced the furnace. They were not intelligent enough to understand what I was saying. These pipes need to be replaced. So, they cannot replace that. The air conditioning is going on the fritz and I have to fight with that. All I’m doing is fighting. On top of that, they have a program where you can upgrade. In other words, part of their program has always been, “Would you like to upgrade, since you’re going to pay the difference?” I was offered that opportunity on the furnace. I was told, “This is what you get,” and that's it. So they didn’t comply with their own contract program.

There was no hot water coming out in one of my showers and then for the other bathroom, the hot water was lasting only about 10 minutes. So I called American Home Shield and the lady at the customer service helped me. She gave me a number and doing the appointment, I called the number, and the contractor had the appointment earlier than she thought. He fixed the issue and the hot water lasts longer now.
