    I used American Home Shield a couple of times. They scheduled a person and everything worked well. I did a claim two times for my refrigerator. The guy that came was very helpful and took care of the issue. American Home Shield so far has been something that you know that you can budget better that way. You know that you're going to spend this money on that. But eventually, things will break and the home warranty will cover that.

    AHS increases the deductible yearly, all the way from $50 to now $99 and some change a month, but the service doesn't improve. We used them recently because our garage door was stuck in the down position. Someone came out, diagnosed the problem, and said that American Home Shield doesn't cover the wheels on the lift of the door. So, AHS charges you this deductible, then there's a fine print in the contract of what's not covered and majority of what people come out to fix is in that fine print. For this claim, we had to pay $100 deductible for the company to come out, then we paid them an additional $150 to fix the problem But I liked the service that the people provided. They only can provide what they can provide but they fixed the problem.

    My AC went out. I put in a ticket claim with AHS. It took the techs a week to get out. But AHS tried other companies to see if they could expedite it faster. But apparently, no one had availability prior to Air Pro Master. The AC has been working great now. AHS is worth it to have, but you need to stay on top of the people because they will not necessarily call you back. You have to follow up. Also, everybody sounds like they are in a different country, so there were some language barriers at times.

    My garage door opener is covered by AHS but the garage door is not. The electronic that connected to the remote was not working. I tried that on three different remotes, so I knew that there was something wrong. United Garage Doors came out. He said, “First of all, even though it is part of the covered part, it's not covered because of the condition. This occurred because of the weight on the door, which was out of balance.” It didn't make sense because I had another company put a long bar for stabilizing the door itself over six months ago and everything was working fine. So that gave me a red flag to say this guy either wanted to mislead or he didn't know what he was doing. Turned out that he wanted to repair with out of pocket, about $800 for me to pay them to replace the springs on the garage door, and then replace the electronics, which would be covered.

    That was when I called AHS and asked for a second opinion. With no hesitation, the second guy from Sam's Garage Doors looked at it and said, “Yeah, your springs are out of balance, but that's not a big deal.” He replaced that electronics and got the remote working. I paid him out of pocket. But it took him only five minutes to adjust the springs. There was no need to replace the springs. He was awesome.

    The toilet was continuously running. The Shining Plumbing Knights got back to me very quickly and set up an appointment. They came out and we thought it was done but the following day, I noticed it was still going a tiny bit. I called them back, they scheduled to come back out, and they fixed it. It's been perfect since. The warranty has been fairly good, but there are parts they don't cover. I had my water heater done and they had to replace it. The way it's advertised, I thought I was only going to be out the service call but then there was a whole bunch of things they don't cover. I ended up paying 1,200 bucks more for the uncovered things. But other than that, it's been reassuring knowing that the warranty is there.

    We own several apartments or condos. One of the tenants who is an elderly lady with a very sick husband called me and said the AC went out and was not working. So, I called American Home Shield who said, “Please pay the $75 fee.” And they sent a company. They came and checked. And they said there was a part that was hard to access and the warranty company would not cover it. And the part was supposed to be replaced would cost me $700. So, I told them, “I need a second opinion.”

    So, since the couple was uncomfortable, and it was extremely hot a couple of months ago in LA, I called another technician who was recommended to me to go and check it out. He said their finding was wrong. They never went up to check the system of the roof. The Freon was a little low. And the fan that cools the compressor malfunctioned. So, he replaced it for me. I paid $500. He got it fixed. It’s working fine. Had nothing to do with the other part that the first contractor had claimed it was not working. That part in the AC system works perfectly. And their analysis was either wrong or they were a bunch of thieves trying to make some money. If I went with that company that AHS recommended, that would have cost me 650. And they would say, “Oh, that wasn't the cause.” I would have had to pay 1,500 to 2,000 to get that AC fixed.

    I went back to AHS. I said, “You need to reimburse me for the amount that I paid to this other technician since your other technician was not able to detect and fix the problem.” They refused after a couple of times. So, they didn't pay me for that claim. And I was very upset. I'm still with AHS, but I was very unhappy about that claim. I’ll shop around for other warranty companies.

I have not finished that claim yet, but it was a little disappointing because American Home Shield doesn't cover the Freon. That's been an expensive problem.

    The refrigerator needed repair and the contractor came and said it was a compressor, and they had to order the parts. But they didn't do the installation. They had to call another company so Sears came out and said it was not the compressor. It was just a fan and the tech would have to order the parts. All of these involved no refrigeration for three weeks. Sears came out, put in the fan and said it was all done. It worked and they left. Everybody was good. It’s just the first company that came out didn't know what they were doing and they misdiagnosed.

    All the reps from American Home Shield have been very helpful. But I had repairs done on a washing machine and the techs came somewhere between 7 to 10 times. They kept replacing parts and they reported that it was a lemon. But AHS wouldn't honor it. They would not give me my machine nor repair it. The repairs didn't work. I got to have a washer and dryer, so I just bought new ones. They kept telling me it was repaired, and I kept telling them it was not working. In the investigation, everybody who bought that particular washing machine had the same issue and Whirlpool was aware. That was the only time I had a horrible experience with AHS. You have to come out 10 times for a repair of the same item, you've got to know. And the repairman who was the same one said that he put in the report. AHS just didn’t honor it. But it’s all good.

    My daughter came out of American Home Shield and got somebody else. I asked her if she was crazy and told her to get back in. A friend of mine is building a new house and I told her all of mine are covered by American Home Shield.

    I usually make a phone call when I make a claim to American Home Shield and it seems easy. In a day or so, you usually hear from a contractor. So, it works well. My upstairs air conditioning unit was not cooling but the expense of refrigerant was not conducive for me to get the repair done because I had to pay for the refrigerant, which was over $1,100. The coverage only allows $10 per pound. So, I had to wait until I got the money to pay for the refrigerant and by the time I had the money, I ended up having to put in a new request and pay another $100 deductible. The refrigerant issue is an issue with the world and it has gone out the roof all over the place. Even I sell refrigerant in my company and it's crazy how expensive it got. So, it's not like that was an American Home Shield issue.

    When I had the regular minimum service with American Home Shield, it didn't help very much because I still had to pay out of pocket for nearly everything I called in for. I called in for the HVAC when it wasn't blowing cold air. I had to pay out of pocket for that. I called for a leak on my kitchen sink, and I had to pay out of pocket for that because it doesn't cover the drain. So, it was kind of negative until I upgraded to the premium service, which wasn't that much more expensive, and it's worth it. So now, I'm a bit happier with their service. I had put in a service request for our oven. They fixed that, and then they recommended the true root cause solution, and now there's a follow-up request that they took care of on their end and there's going to be an electrician coming in. So, it's been pretty good. The technicians that have come out were quick, friendly, prompt, and they arrive on time.

He's like, "Well, you can always cancel it." I said, "I can't cancel it. There's no way." Long story short, we got on the schedule, they came, they looked at my dishwasher, he ordered a part for it, and then came maybe about five days later to install it, and he was in and out. Everything works perfectly. So, it was only that little snafu about scheduling.

    The air conditioning was giving trouble. It was not turning off on its own. It was also a combination of issues with the air conditioning. But the contractor was able to get it completed. I fully appreciated that. The young man that came out was extremely knowledgeable with what he had to do. It was great service and interaction. Everything is operating very well. I really liked American Home Shield's full coverage. There were some initial coverages that are normal for other people to do, but American Home Shield covered roofing and additional appliances and that won me over.

    My breakers had jumped off and May Heating and Air, the contractor, came. I hated to have to pay them 125 just to flip the switch. Still, with American Home Shield, if something major breaks, I’d have the money to fix it or buy a new one. I wish though we could call somebody closer to the home. These last ones were way off.

    Water was showing on the flooring and we initially called a plumber, thinking that it was a pipe. But when we started digging a little bit more, we discovered it was the AC. It was great to know that the process was simple. We had to cancel to cancel the plumber and schedule the AC person. The whole process was easy, which makes things a little less stressful for the homeowner.

    The technician came two days later. He did what he needed to do. He was not rude nor disrespectful at any time. He was punctual. But he didn't go the extra mile with cleaning. I had to open up everything again because he left the wet towels behind rather than getting them out. I didn't expect him to wash them but he should have gotten them out before he sealed the closet or the area. The technician was not necessarily the one that I would recommend. Also, when you're talking about water, neither the plumber nor the AC repair person was available within 24 hours, much less sooner than that.

    I had an issue with an appliance and the contractor couldn’t repair it so American Home Shield eventually offered to replace it. The tech has been here a couple of times and seems to be knowledgeable. He came out and looked at the piece that he put in and did a videotape. The process took less than a week. It would be nice to have a vendor of choice and if you could do multiple claims in sets. I gotta put individual claims when my washer and dryer was out, which was 125 bucks a piece, whereas it's usually done in a set. On top of that, you’re paying 65 bucks a month now just to maintain the warranty that you seldom use. It gets kind of expensive and I'm contemplating canceling AHS.

    My recent claim with AHS was for the ice maker. Everything went fine. GE came out within a couple of days. We had to wait for some parts to come in. They scheduled me for an appointment. They fixed it. The techs were very pleasant. It's easy to put a claim in and get things done with AHS. However, some of the vendors that they use, that if you are using a warranty company like AHS, they won't come out when you have a true emergency. They will make you wait to service you like a regular appointment. For example, I had my toilet backed up, and both my toilets were stopped up and I had no toilet. It was on a Friday night. They put the claim in and said no. They told me if it was a regular complaint, they would have been out there that same day. But because it was a warranty, they wouldn't see me until Monday or Tuesday. I ended up having to call Roto-Rooter and pay their price.

It is very useful, especially if you're not from the area and you don't know who to contact and who's reliable. When the home warranty came with the house that I bought, I was really happy to be able to call a service that they backed up. If I wasn’t happy with whoever came out to do a service, they sent somebody else. So for that reason, we wound up keeping it.

I’m getting what I paid for with American Home Shield. It’s not extraordinarily special but it’s pretty much exactly what you get in your contract. This home warranty gives a little bit of assurance as far as not having to track down repair people and things like that. They do a lot of that, which saves a significant amount of time.

    About seven times that the AC would turn on or turn off, I would hear this weird clicking sound that sounded like an electrical thing. Whenever I would turn on my light in my kitchen, I would hear that weird clicking sound. So, I thought it was a circuit breaker issue. I contacted American Home Shield to come and investigate, give me a diagnosis, and then hopefully fix it without costing too much. It was just an old smoke detector that hadn't been replaced, so every time when certain things were turned on in my unit, it would aggravate the smoke detector. A gentleman came, replaced it, and was like, "Hey, test it as much as you want. Turn the light on 20, 30 times, turn the AC on and off, see if you get any noises." Ever since then I've not had a single electrical problem. I'd recommend the gentleman's company and definitely use them again.

    I've only used American Home Shield to get new locks on my door and for the electrical work that ended up being a replacement of the smoke detectors. Both of those experiences were great. I'm looking forward to continuously work with them. They contract with some really great people. I had some excellent customer service from the people that I've worked with.

    We've had a positive experience with American Home Shield. They are a bit challenging though. If there is any issue, the customer service tries to resolve it. But sometimes, things get misunderstood with their personnel. But overall, we've been able to use it for quite a bit around the house and we're grateful for it. We had our dishwasher break and something else with our pool that happened that they repaired, and some smaller plumbing issues. We have enjoyed the technicians, especially for the pool. They are very knowledgeable. One of the plumbers that was sent out, while he fixed the problem in the immediate situation, didn't put things back correctly so there are some issues now, but nothing awful.

    My dishwasher was leaking water. The first company that American Home Shield sent me that I paid $100 for never showed up. I reached out back to American Home Shield, then the company called me back. They said they were sorry and that we could reschedule. I told them I didn't trust their professionalism. American Home Shield sent Sears. Sears was terrific. They had me videotape so they'd be ready when they came out. They came quickly and brought the part. It was fairly quick. However, I'm not quite satisfied with American Home Shield because there's another issue that I was totally not satisfied with. It was with my electrical system. They denied me the coverage. Now, I've got to pay for somebody to come and switch out the switches for my low-voltage electrical system. They don't have to replace it, just fix the switches. I don't understand why they wouldn't do that and I have to pay for it.

    The first time I got someone to come out for the dishwasher, and it was not turning on. He flipped some kind of switch underneath it to reset it. Told us that it happened sometimes with that brand of dishwasher. Reset it, cycled through, and within a couple of days, it turned back off again for the same issue. So, I called American Home Shield, set another appointment. And they did a recall. I found it to be helpful that AHS offered the recall at no charge when the technician wasn't able to fix it, or they missed something. I was easily able to call AHS and let them know what happened. And they immediately got me a new appointment at no extra charge.

    Sears came out again to check it out fast to get an appointment. That was great. And the technician who came out ended up stating that we needed a certain part for it, and ordered that part and scheduled our next appointment for the end of this month. They were nice, respectful, and knowledgeable. They were able to keep in communication as well prior to the appointment to let us know when they were coming and gave us a heads up.

    The belt on my dryer broke and I submitted the claim to American Home Shield online but I ended up calling too because they wanted me to take a picture of the model so they can give all the information to Mr. Appliance. The tech quickly figured out the belt was broken, put a new belt on and away he went. It took him 15 minutes. I had to pay 100 bucks to American Home Shield and for Mr. Appliance to come out and you're gonna pay that whether you use a warranty or not. It's the way it works now. I've been using AHS for a couple years now and they replaced my washer because we couldn't fix it. They also fixed my dishwasher. I got AHS a couple of years ago because I have a furnace and AC unit that was 25 years plus. Last year, they fixed my AC unit a couple times. It's like two life insurances for your appliances so you don't get hit with a huge bill.

    When my washing machine died, AHS told what the model was that I could get for free. Or if I wanna step up to this model, I could and it would cost me X. It was a nice option to have. We ended up taking the free one, because that was available. My wife didn't like the nicer one so we just took the one that came and we've had it for two plus years, and it’s working fine. When I started, the cost was 48 bucks a month for the plan. I've used it a couple of times and now, it's 60 bucks a month. So, over the last two years, it had gone up 12 bucks a month. Just like your car insurance, use it and the price can go up. But if you have an older house or older appliances, it's a no-brainer.

    I haven't been pleased with my service with American Home Shield and I’ve been following up on their part as far as what they say they're going to reimburse you for, and then I haven't been reimbursed. So, I cancelled my policy. They gave me incentives to keep my policy by offsetting some of the cost. They told me they would cover a repair. They even talked to the roofer and the roofer told them what was wrong. The roofer said that he got prior approval and then, he did the work. But AHS wouldn't reimburse me because they said that they didn't give prior approval. We have names and dates of who we talked to and whatnot. So, it was stressful. AHS’ service is marginal at best. I had another claim that they paid on but the contractor said he knows how to work the system with them, so he was able to get it covered. But that’s not good, either.

    I'm not liking American Home Shield. The only thing I happen to have problems with is my air conditioner and if they can replace the part, there's no problem, and I do that for $100. But if it has something to do with Freon or cleaning, they will charge me fully. The customer service is not that bad, but they still can't do much for you.

    For the most part, I'm pleased with the service and the claims process through American Home Shield has been good. But at times, I've had issues with them. When they send some of the contractors out to fix things, the contractors will decline jobs. And as a consumer, I have to take off time for work to be at the home when the repair needs to be made. So, there's been times for the same issue that I had to make multiple trips to my house. I got very frustrated and I called AHS and told them not to send anybody else out to my house that's not able to make the repair on the spot. I understand sometimes they might not have all of the parts but AHS sends multiple companies out. But in the last two calls that I've had, the companies have been good.

    My dishwasher wouldn't shut off, so Paul's Appliance replaced the control bar at the top. I had a real good experience. The only thing is the time. It was about a week before they came out and the repair man had to order a part. It was another week that the part came in, then it was another week before he could get back out. Other than that, he did a great job, and it's working fine now.

    I like having American Home Shield. I don't have to worry about my appliances, and if there's an issue, they have someone come out. It's just the price has gone up, like everything else. Also, I had to reschedule a service one time, and it was hard to get ahold of anybody by the phone. I've learned now that text was the best way to do it. Another thing is I live out in in the country. I'm about 50 miles out of Bryan–College Station, and my mailing address is Anderson, but American Home Shield always sends somebody from Montgomery or somewhere else, which is further away than Bryan–College Station. Paul's Appliance is in Bryan, but there was a company that AHS sent out and they were out of Montgomery. I've had good luck with them, too. The guy did great.

    The first time I turned the heater on in the winter, it came on. But then the next day, during the daytime, it warmed up outside. So I didn't need the heat on. Matter of fact, I had to turn it to cool because it got too warm in the house. So then the second night, I went to turn it to heat but it wouldn't turn on. I called American Home Shield and I got a pretty prompt response. The contractor came out the next day. As soon as the tech got there, I was explaining to him what happened and I flipped the switch to heat and the heater turned on. He explained to me that this sometimes happens in the beginning of the season when you're turning it on. But he did go up there and he checked everything out and said it was fine. So I was comforted with that. A different HVAC company came out when I had an issue with the AC unit, and the contractors all seem to do a good job.

    Dobkins was great. AHS had sent someone else out for my claim and they said I needed a new air conditioner. This guy from Dobkins said he didn't know that particular kind of air conditioner because he said that it was complicated. But he got it running. It was all good. But we had a difficult time this last time because they kept getting the address and the zip code wrong. Everybody thought they were going to Lompoc instead of up north. It was human error and nobody wanted to own it. It took three phone calls before I could get them to get it right. It was very aggravating.

    Another time, when the air conditioner guy went out to do my mom's air conditioner, AHS was gonna send somebody out but they said they couldn't do it, so they ended up calling somebody else. But when we called them, we had to pay the $100 upfront. So I paid the $100, and the next thing I know I was getting a notice in the mail saying that my account was gonna be terminated because I owed them $100. I told them, "I did not cancel the 100." They finally told me the truth, someone from their office canceled it. But when they've got it together, it works great.

    They also came out and put a new cooktop in my mother's house. They've also done plumbing. But that plumbing, since they don't do any of the outside-of-the-house plumbing, that hot water heater cost me 800 bucks. They bought the hot water heater, but I had to pay for the labor. Then the tech said, "Do you mind if I turn your sprinklers off?" I said, "No." But he didn't tell me he was turning them off permanently. So he cut the pipes to all my outside water, so we had no water outside at all anymore. Then, they charged me to put it back together. But that had nothing to do with American Home Shield, it was a deployment outfit that they sent me. It's been a good experience with AHS.

    Applifix worked on our clothes washer. It was trial and error. It took the tech longer than expected because he was thinking it was one thing, he replaced that part, and then that didn't work, and then he had to order another part. Once he figured it out and got the right part in and installed it, we were good to go. He did his best with what he had. I called American Home Shield by phone to file the claim. For me, it's a lot quicker just calling them on the phone instead of trying to go back and forth through email.

They worked together. The only issue I had with American Home Shield one time was to repair our air conditioning. They sent one contractor out and he took the information. Every time I tried to get somebody to help, they kept saying there was something like an order that was supposed to be coming from the contractor that came out to American Home Shield.

    We had something we were trying to get repaired. Once we had the person come out and paid the fee, they said that it was not covered due to the particular way that it broke. That's in the policy, so that's understandable. I asked the company who came out if they could go ahead and fix it especially because we had already paid $125 to have it looked at. They came back and said, “We can't fix it because that's a conflict of interest. We were sent by American Home Shield." I had to call someone else and pay them again to come and evaluate it. That was a waste. I didn't understand why, if it's something that's not covered for whatever reason in the policy, we can not use the company that's already partnered with American Home Shield since we have to pay out of pocket anyway. But when I had called American Home Shield’s customer service, one person said, “Just call back to the company that came out.” So far, I haven't been totally pleased with how that panned out.

    American Home Shield in general has been okay. I like the fact that I have that coverage just in case I need it. But I'm also leery of using it because if a unit goes out, they won't cover stuff. There are policies that they have in place that I don't agree with because it leaves room for a lot of loopholes that their contractors like to exploit. That's not their fault. It's the actual company they contracted.

    There's a lot of stuff that AHS doesn't cover. I work in the automotive business, and I deal with auto extended warranties, which work in the same manner that AHS does. So in this situation, say we find a bad part which was the cause of the failure, but it caused damage to another part. In a lot of cases, even with extended warranty companies, they will cover those parts because it happened as a result, more like a collateral effect.

    In AHS, when I first used them, I had an electrical issue that was determined to be a problem inside of the walls to where they would have to open the walls up to get to the problem. AHS will cover the actual repair, but they will not cover the demolition of the wall or the reassembly with new sheet rock. So, I ended up with a $2,500 bill to fix the electrical stuff. I ended up not even using the warranty for that because it would have just cost me a lot more money to do that. And I ended up finding another way to get it fixed, which I wasn't happy about because I pay 600 bucks a year for this warranty, and it upset me that that was the situation.

    More recently, I had to file a claim for my washer. And the process in doing that, they just give the contractors much leeway on situations like that. Because I had to wait over two weeks for this contractor to fix the washer. They had to order a part. I'm mechanically inclined. So, I don't just take what people tell me. I do research on things and make sure that what I'm being told is factual. I found that part to be available here in town within a day.

But when the electrician came, he reset the breaker and said that they were good breakers. He said things should be fine. We turned the air conditioner on and that was it.

    When I submit a claim to American Home Shield online, they send me an email saying that someone would be coming out from such and such a company. The contractor would call, set up a date and then they would come. When there was water leaking from something that was in the basement, the tech came and showed my husband the issue. It was something you could either turn off or up, and he showed my husband how to do it and then left.

    In the first couple of years, we had major issues with our furnace and American Home Shield had it fixed to the point where it runs but it's not the most efficient. Usually, there is always the contractor A & J that comes out and they've been pretty good. They've always been courteous and kind. They cleaned up after themselves. I'm not really fond of American Home Shield's online portal for claims. I'd rather speak to somebody so that I know that my issue is going to be addressed. Other than that, everything's gone through. It's been nice to only have to pay a little bit out of pocket rather than thousands.

    I've been with American Home Shield for three years. They've always been responsive. I expanded it to another house. I've suggested it to other people. Everyone I've talked to has been thankful. I've heard terrible things from other people about this company, but I have had nothing but good business. I've used multiple things with Budget AC. Every time Budget has come, they've done an excellent job. They're excellent with their website, telling me when they're coming, following up. I use quite a bit of services through my home warranty service and Budget is one of the best.

    I am extremely frustrated with AHS regarding the handling of my request for plumbing service to my home. Another claim and another time it is taking a month or more to get this claim remedied. I called their vendor PCast plumbing on August 16th privately, because water was coming from my clean out each time I used my kitchen faucet. They felt there was a clog or stoppage in my sewer line located within the foundation of my home. I then had an outside plumber come in, for a second opinion, and he determined that the problem was leak within the wall. I placed a call to AHS asking to send a vendor out and PCast was sent again under my contract. They insisted the problem was a clogged sewer line, even though the problem only presented itself when using the kitchen faucet. No other faucet in my home caused the issue.

    AHS denied my claim saying the problem existed outside the foundation of my home and as such was not covered. I appealed this because the line PCast said was clogged, did exist within the foundation of my home. The decision was reversed. I asked for a second opinion, and APlumbing was assigned. Anywhere Plumbing called me to ask what was going on and when I explained to them, they determined without coming to my home that this was a stoppage. The request sent by AHS said "leak" and not "stoppage", therefore they would not come out to address my problem.

    At no point was I told this was stoppage and not leak. As a layperson, I can only go by what I see. At no point during this time did AHS tell me I had to change my request from "leak" to "stoppage". AHS sought to remedy this by creating a new work order for the same issue. They asked me to pay another vendor fee of 100.00 for the same issue, and told me it would be reimbursed, as this would be used as my second opinion. This was approved.

    The request was made as "stoppage" to MPlumber. They came out and said they felt it was a broken pipe for kitchen sink drain line. Again I called AHS to get a resolution on September 15th and was told they had not received a report yet from MPlumber. I had Trinity call them while I was on the line, and she came back and said it would be sent within 24-48hours. That was a week ago.

    I still had not heard back, so I called yesterday, but no one could help because I was told the system was down. I called again today and spoke with Destiny who said the report was still not in and that she would escalate to get to the bottom of things. She called MPlumber again while I was on the line. She came back and told me MPlumber said they did not send a report because they came to the conclusion that my issue wasn't covered. I was livid because this is not the vendor's decision to make.

    When I got off the phone with her, I called MPlumber directly to find out why they were making a decision that was not theirs to make, and Brittany informed me that she never said that to Destiny. Brittany told me a report was sent to AHS on September 16th, but she would email it again since AHS was claiming it was never received.

    Within 2 hours of that call I received a decision from AHS, saying my plumbing issue was only partially covered. Reason for failure was roots. I am flabbergasted because the report left with me by MPlumber says, "broken pipe in ground for kitchen drain line." It also says the cable used came back with mud and roots. This was a blatant lie. My husband and I stood by the entire time the plumber worked and roots were never pulled out. I can only surmise that this was a money grab because the receipt left with us is completely different than the report allegedly submitted. With this new report, I am expected to cough up over 5,000.00 to the plumber. When I called, I spoke to a very rude representative who told me my only remedy was to get a second opinion. Are they serious??? I asked to speak with someone in a supervisory capacity and was placed on hold for 30 minutes. She never came back to the line, and I was hung up on afterwards.

    I want this decision reversed, and some explanation why I am getting conflicting reports from AHS and their vendor. It seems like AHS uses a tactic of trying to wear a client down, instead of paying for repair costs. Had I accepted the denial, that would've ended the claim altogether. They were wrong, and I believe they still are. I have asked them repeatedly not to send MPlumber to my home because of past issues I have had with this company.

    It is abominable that I pay for a service and every time I need help, it's like pulling teeth with no anesthesia. It is downright disgusting that I can't speak to anyone who seems to know what they are doing, and I have to hear roosters crowing in the background. I am really considering canceling my plan with AHS because enough is enough, and I am fed up with how difficult they make it to settle a claim every time. I am being made to jump through hoops just to get them to honor my contract. I expect to hear something from someone or I may have to pursue legal avenues. If I don't pay my premium, my service is terminated, but if I need service AHS can drag it on and on.

    If AHS is supposedly the best, I may as well put money into an escrow account for repairs because they have shown me that they are reluctant to pay each and every time I make a request. I would steer clear. They talk a good game and their commercials make it seem easy, but it has certainly not been my experience whatsoever. I should have heeded the reviews I read.

    American Home Shield used the plumbing company SDL Plumbing. They came to my house three times. One time was to assess the problem. They said I needed a new faucet. The guy did a faucet replacement. He didn't hook the holes or the valve right and it caused a leak under my sink. My wood is rotted out. I called SDL and let them know. They told me it was my fault that I didn't check their work. I told them that they caused the damage to which they said, "You should have called us before now." But how would I know the water was leaking until I knew it was leaking? I didn't know that until I looked under my sink.

    They told me to contact American Home Shield to see what they would do. In my contract, they're saying that American Home Shield is responsible for any kind of issues after the company comes out. I don't think that was on American Home Shield. It's SDL Plumbing that I got a problem with. They were pissing me off. I would like the SDL to fix the damage that they caused. I got it priced and it's gonna be costing $300. I just didn't feel like I will be responsible for that. It wasn't there before SDL came out and did the work.

    I used to have American Home Shield it at my other house and it was great over there. My air conditioner wouldn't come on. Once before, I had where they came out and the water line going outside was leaking. But since they came out, I put bleach in there now so that wasn’t it. But it wouldn't come on. And four or five hours later, it came on by itself but it wouldn't come on again. I checked all the breakers, and that was when I called AHS. It was easy submitting the claim.

    The gut that came out was good. We talked about it. We looked at a few things. I told him what all it was doing. And we came to the agreement that the thermostat was the only thing that would control both inside unit and outside unit, so decided to swap out thermostats. He seemed like he knew what he was doing. The ac works great right now. I've told several others that they ought to get AHS.

    I've appreciated the services with American Home Shield. I've been liking the service since I had issues resolved timely and quickly. We had an issue with our washing machine and we were able to get a new washing machine. I filed a claim. They sent someone out. They determined it could not be fixed because of a parts issue. Then I was given multiple options on how I wanted to get a new washing machine. Through the online process, I was able to pick the model that I wanted all within the claim amount. There were other options, too. I could pay a little more for a different model, but I just chose the one that was covered by the claim amount. I've been happy with the replacement ever since.

    I had American Home Shield previously where I lived before. And when we moved to Tennessee, I forgot to re-sign up. I went with another home warranty provider, and it was a disaster. I said, “I gotta get back to some people that I know and trust.” So, I went back to American Home Shield. I've been extremely satisfied.

    I can make a phone call to American Home Shield and if the service is covered under what they do, it’s only $85. I like that and I'm enjoying my experience because as a first-time homebuyer, it’s convenient, especially the things that we've been calling about. The sensor was off on the garage door and I didn't want to touch it myself and further damage it, so I made the phone call. It was better to spend the $85 than have me do something and it’d be messed up. It was probably 10 minutes worth of work, which was totally fine. It was great. So, we were happy about that.

    I appreciate what AHS is doing, because for somebody who is in their first home, and is a part of something to where they can give encouragement to people to buy homes, what they are doing makes that possible. And it makes it more comfortable for somebody to purchase a home, because it's a big commitment. What AHS does is not that expensive. I'm glad that it's in place so people can use this resource.

    Stuff was backing up into our shower and our toilet wasn't flushing all the time. The guy who came out was from South Carolina and didn't know the different laws in different counties in North Carolina. In our county, we're responsible for the drain while the state town is only responsible for the drainage under the road, not what comes from the house to the road. And where that plumber was from, the homeowners are not responsible from their out. He said that he couldn't legally push the drain out into the main like that or he could get in trouble if he was caught. And when he came out and checked our drain, he said that it was clogged, but that was not their responsibility. So, he didn't fix the problem. My husband went out and was able to unclog it himself. I told AHS that they sent somebody from South Carolina and we live in North Carolina with different rules. Next time I call, they should make sure they send somebody local, from North Carolina.

    I've been with AHS for three years now and I don't like their service. They speak English, but you cannot understand them. I don't know what country they're using. The first year we had it, our HVAC went down the week before Christmas. I live in Washington and it was freezing. It took them seven days to get a repairman out. There weren't any repair people available in my area.

    Recently, the overflow of my hot water tank was leaking. I called them. I paid my $100. But they started giving me the runaround. They finally got me hooked up with an appointment and it took them two days to make the appointment. The company called me to tell me that they were coming out, wanting to know what the problem was. They proceeded to tell me that if I had to replace a water tank that the codes in Washington have changed and it would cost me $1,500.

    With my HVAC claim, the tech had to put refrigerant in it and that cost me 100 bucks. My dishwasher was as old as my house and it was going to go. I said, "What's the policy when it goes?" They'd repair it. The problem is there were no parts to repair anything. So they would have to replace it. But you would get no choice in what goes into your home. They would buy it and ship it to you. Then they would tell you who to call to have come in and put in.
