When the heat pump was not nice, American Home Shield quickly responded back. The only thing is maybe I could get a live agent a little faster when I call, but it's super easy to do the claim online. The contractor addressed the issue immediately. AHS also helped me work through a lot of air conditioning, ceiling fan, and oven problems. Get a company that you know will honor older appliances like AHS does.

My local service provider comes out twice a year for my heater and air conditioner. When their guy looked at my unit, he said there was an issue with the motor for the blower motor. Nobody would be open until Monday and it was an expensive fix. I filled out the form online with American Home Shield and almost immediately, they sent me out Value Heating and they gave me the phone number. I called Value Heating before they had a chance to call me. Their guy came out that day and he was very knowledgeable about my Carrier furnace. The difference between my local provider and this guy was day and night. The issue was the motor but the Value guy got it to start working. He said to give it until Monday then he would check in with me. He told me how to watch the unit, what to look for, and what the different codes were.
I watched it over the long weekend. It worked fine up until early Sunday morning then it broke again. The motor by that time was wheezing and doing all kinds of stuff. The Value guy brought out the motor with him on Monday, replaced it, and fixed it. I liked him so much that I'm gonna quit my other service and go with him. So far, American Home Shield has really helped me a lot in the last three years since I've been in my home. I got the home warranty because my brother-in-law had them for years and he swore by them. I looked it up and they had really high ratings. My niece has them in California too and she's had almost all her appliances replaced through them. I recommended American Home Shield to my neighbors and one signed up with them.

The water heater had started leaking on Sunday. I called AHS that same morning. They said that they were going to send someone out at 1 o'clock in the afternoon that same day. It was easy submitting a claim with AHS. The guy that came and inspected the water heater was wonderful. He was really nice, friendly and has good customer service. He told me exactly what I needed to do. He said it was damaged. Somebody else came and replaced the water heater, placed it back on the spot. I got my hot water now.

My second refrigerator, which is located in the garage was not cooling. I put in the call and I got an immediate response. The technician was timely and professional. I had reset the circuit breaker and plugged the refrigerator, unplugged it, plugged it back in, until the refrigerator started cooling on its own. So there was no need for him to do any technical work on it. But he explained to me that because I had it on GFI, that was not a very wise thing for me to have it on the GFI. Because they have a tendency to trip more often. I was very pleased with the service, the quick response, and the professionalism of the gentleman that came out.
I've been with AHS for a long time and I’ve always got great service. However, they should improve their literature, as far as what's covered and what's not, if that could be a little bit clearer for the average person to look over. Sometimes, it’s very difficult to break it down as far as the coverage that you're going to receive. But I'm very happy with AHS. I sold real estate for years back in Virginia and AHS was something that I recommended to any homebuyer as well. They're the best thing in the world to have, especially the first year, you don't know if the systems are gonna work a little differently, considering how a new owner is going to be using them. I definitely would recommend AHS.

We had no heat. American Home Shield sent somebody else out which took a week to get them in. Then those people couldn't fix it. Arts, Heating and Cooling came out the same day that the first company couldn't make it. They got the issue fixed in an hour. It's just that if the furnace goes out and gets replaced, then you're still gonna have to come up with $1,500. That wasn't to my understanding when I signed on it. I thought AHS would cover the entire unit. They were not clear about that.

There was a blockage in the pipes between the two bathrooms. I called AHS. Firstly, it took a couple of tries on the automated. It kept asking me if I wanted something else. Finally, I just said, "No, customer service," and they ended up putting me through to customer service. Hers and His Plumbing came out to run a snake in my cleanout and the tech said he didn't have time to check it with the camera because he had to go and help someone pick up a hot water heater. So he had to reschedule another appointment to come out tomorrow.
I also had them out the very first week I moved down here four months ago for the same issue. Both times, the techs came out, I had no issues at all. They were very courteous, helpful and explained everything to me. In the four months down here, I've had a couple of issues that I had to have contractors through American Home Shield come out and every time they came out, they were able to resolve my problem and were always very polite and helpful.

I had a leak that was coming from my upstairs bathroom and the ceiling of my kitchen. AHS set up for someone to come out but that contractor canceled. So when I spoke with the young lady at AHS, she set it up so that Coulter Repair Services would come out. I made the phone call on a Sunday and their tech called me that Monday. Then, he came out on Tuesday and he was very professional. He called and asked me what time worked best for me. We set up a time and he told me that when he was 20 minutes away from my home on that day, he would give me a call to let me know that. And that was exactly what he did. When he came in, he looked at what was going on and he was very efficient with taking care of the issue. He did what they call a rough patch, but even still, he did a very good job. And now things are dry. He also made sure that he covered everything so he wouldn't get debris and he cleaned up after himself.

American Home Shield is great. They assign someone to come out and fix stuff when it's broken and that's what we got them for. The tech from Fast Response was awesome. He's been here before. He was professional and fixed the problem quickly. However, I've had to argue with American Home Shield quite a bit in the past. The first thing they do is go in and put in the least expensive thing they can that meets the criteria. I had an oven that went out. It was a $3,500 oven and American Home Shield was wanting to replace it with a $1,200 oven. It was a JennAir oven that had a fan in the top and not in the bottom. American Home Shield found one with a fan in the top, not in the bottom and felt like they were done. But again, there's a difference in a JennAir or a Thermador and a Maytag and American Home Shield doesn't seem to account for that.

The service is pretty awesome and convenient. I don't have to go through the whole process of pinging each repairperson to come to the house. I just pay AHS and they fix everything. Also, they’re pretty prompt and the technicians that they send out are very knowledgeable, professional, and proficient. Budget A/C Heating & Plumbing did an excellent job with a recent claim. My furnace was on auto and it was trying to kick on, but it never ran. They gave me a temporary solution until they got the part in. Then, they changed the part and it's now working the way it's supposed to.

My hot water tank went out and Home Shield was quick to respond. They replaced the tank with a new one. The plumbers came quickly but they had to wait on Home Shield because they supply the materials. We gave them the size of the tank and they sent us one that was way too big to fit in our area. We gave them the size again and they sent one that was the same gallon but the size of the tank was bigger. We had to do some stuff to get it to fit in our area because we didn't wanna wait again for another one. When I run my hot water, I can smell something from the water which was really strange because my other tank didn't do that. Also, it doesn't seem like the water pressure is that good. Other than that, it's been fine.
I had a few other things done through Home Shield and everything always went well. In the case of my hot water heater, it was just an ordering problem. It would make it easier for everybody to know what to get if they saw and measured the unit that needed to be bought. Home Shield must have saved a few bucks by doing what they did.

The service came out quickly. I put the claims out Thursday and Friday and they came out that Monday. All but one. A person still hasn't shown up. It's a local repair shop here in my town and they are taking their time. Because by the time my two people were finished, the person that was scheduled decided to call me at the last minute. Other than that, I'm very impressed with the timing and the people that American Home Shield sends out.
The wire that pulls the garage back up on the right side what they call bird nested. So, it got tangled. The guy did a good job putting the garage door back on track and making sure that the door was balanced. My water heater was also serviced. The tech said it was not the worst of a kind, but he said that it almost needed to be changed out. Then the same person changed out my garbage disposal. I thought there was a loose screw inside and it turned out the seal went bad. So, he replaced the garbage disposal.

I filed a plumbing claim and I got both a text message and an email telling me Grade A Plumbing will be coming out to my house. Initially, it said that the contractor would call me and then, I received a follow-up that said I had to call them and schedule an appointment. Matthew then came out and he was very professional. He had another tech with him and they didn't leave a mess. Also, Matthew provided me with a little bit of information on how to prevent the issue from happening again. They were in and out very quickly and when they left, everything was good to go. But it's hit or miss with AHS. I had a great experience this time around and when my range was repaired. The past few claims have gone well. However, my previous experience with plumbing was not good. I felt like I was not given clarity as to what was covered in that particular case.

The first time American Home Shield sent a guy out, I wasn't very pleased with it. He did his job. He came in, he unplugged the drains, and he was supposed to change a faucet, but he just did it halfway. He didn't have all his equipment. It's not a big thing. It doesn't affect the job at all. It's just instead of taking the full hour that it would have took to finish it, it just took 30 minutes. He just changed half of it. The second time, the guy who came was very knowledgeable and pleasant to deal with. He tried his best to do one of the furnaces. He almost got it working but then we realized that it was going out because we need to change a part inside, and he said, “You know, we can get it working but it may not be safe.” I said, “Well, we don't have the part. Let's not do it.” I want it to be safe to use it. He went beyond his 100%.

We use AHS three times a year. We had a hot water leak so we had to have the whole unit replaced and the plumber told me that without AHS, it would be $1,200. Instead, it was 75. That's the biggest thing we've used them for. Most of our things are little like replacing a ceiling fan light kit. I don't know if that's worth $75 but we couldn't do it ourselves.
We've been disappointed a couple of times like when the garage door broke on our rent house. When I turned in the service request, it would have been nice if AHS reminded people, “Hey, now, the warranty doesn't cover garage doors. Just the openers.” So the guy that came through them wanted to replace the entire door and I thought that was ridiculous. It only needs one little piece. So I said, “Is it okay if you go ahead and leave?” He said, “Well, yeah. Because I'd have to bring the door back anyway. So no biggie if you want to call somebody else.” So I called the local company and it cost me $127 pus the $75 for AHS. The fine print things have been aggravating but still, 200 bucks is a lot better than an $800 new garage door.
Also, our air conditioner had a problem but it was the lines inside the house. So, that was not covered. If I read the fine print, I wouldn't have bothered American Home Shield. We called a local company and got it fixed and paid for it. It was $900. Anytime you have an older home it's smart to have a home warranty. It is nice to be able to call or get on your phone or get on your laptop the minute you have a problem. Usually, within a couple of days, it's fixed. AHS gets somebody out pretty quickly. I'm pretty satisfied.

When the plumber came out, saw what the problem was, he had already brought another garbage disposal to take care of it, and everything was done and he was out the door. He was very good. He explained to me what was going on and then things that we might want to do to keep them lubricated by running them once a month. AHS has been fantastic. I like the workability with AHS.

Typically, AHS's techs come in three to four business days. The one who came for my washing machine and my dryer was great. I brag about the home warranty all the time. For me, there are two big benefits and one of them is cash flow. Home repairs can be hundreds or thousands of dollars. You’re scared to call the people and find out what you're in for. This takes all of that stress away.
The other thing is that my warranty company has relationships with all different technicians and companies. So I'm not the consumer or trying to search the internet for the best tech around who's going to come into my house. Someone's already vetted them and I'm going to get assigned one company and I don't really get a choice. There's some safety in that.

My water heater broke. They called me the next day and they sent somebody out immediately, which was very good. The thing was, he had to go back and order it and bring it back the next day. Then the guy came out and disconnected everything. But then, he realized the one they brought out wasn't the right one. It was too big for the little hole.
They came back early the next morning at 8:00 with the hot water heater. He was able to put it in. My problem was I had to pay for the permit, which was 135. I had to pay to unhook the water heater and that was free. But the soft water conditioner was next to it. I had to pay to unhook that as well as rehook it and they put everything back in there. It cost me $385. But he was very polite and nice. He was an older man. I would definitely use them again even if I had to call them and pay for them on my own because they were really considerate and helpful.
I've been using AHS for about 10 years now. I've had some good luck with them and I've had some bad luck. One time, my trash compactor broke. They tried to fix it. Finally, they couldn't find technicians to fix it and they paid me out, which was a fair reasonable price. I was impressed by that. One time, I had a microwave that was built in and it just went kapooey after so many years, and they paid me out.
They offered me an upgrade, if I wanted to pay it or to get what I had, and they helped me a lot. They were very nice about it. That was good, too. They honor what they say they're going to do. They pay for it. But I had a shower problem, which they never fixed. The plumbers couldn't fix it no matter what they did. They kept stripping out the handles. It was a $15,000 shower and they couldn't figure out how to fix it. Finally, my plumber down the street came over, put a little oil on it, and it worked. I've had some good problems, some bad problems. But, I can get right through to AHS and they call me back immediately. If I have a problem, they are there and I like that.

I was cooking one day, and I heard a loud pop on my stove when the oven was preheating, and when I was also using the stovetop simultaneously. Immediately after the pop, a large amount of smoke poured out from under the console center. The contractor called me back the next day after I phone AHS and they came a week after my stove broke. That was pretty good.
The techs did a very good job. They were able to move my stove out from the wall and immediately identified the problem, a blown power cord and blocked terminal. It was a very basic procedure. The tech had the part but the issue was the wrong power blocking core terminal when he came back for the next visit. He said the electrical prongs were close. They looked very similar, but they did not match. He realized 15 minutes right before he tried to plug it in. So he took the old, damaged one and he came back about a week later and repaired it. So far, it has worked fine. He was very polite and very quick. He keeps it less than half an hour every time. So, I’m amazed.

I'm good with the service I get from American Home Shield where I live but not with the service that I get in my second home in Florida where my parents live. Recently, we've had our faucet replaced and prior to that, we had our garbage disposal replaced. AHS has taken care of our garage door as well as our washing machine, and we've had them for a long time. When we lived in Florida at our other home in Cape Coral, they replaced our air conditioning unit outside. So, we've had lots of work through them. When you're there, it's great. But when you're not, it's not so great.
The only time I was extremely upset with AHS was with the faucet they just replaced here. It was busted. I set up an appointment Sunday evening when it broke and we couldn't get anyone to come out until after Thanksgiving. So, we had to be with no running water in our kitchen for Thanksgiving. It's hard when you're speaking to people who are in a third-world country. He handed me four other locations and said that I could call them and see if they were available. I was thinking why I was doing his job. It was what I was paying them for. But he refused to do it. So, I had to sit down and call out all these different places to see if we could get someone sooner. I told my husband that maybe it was time we start looking for someone new that does it because we've been with AHS so long and it seems like it's getting harder and harder sometimes.

The garage motor went dead. I had a LiftMaster. But I didn't get a LiftMaster when the contractor did the work. I got a regular garage door opener that AHS covered. So I had to spend extra money because LiftMaster had both lights on each side. I had to buy a motion detection to put it in my garage. So when I step out, it'll be totally dark. AHS should match what you already had. But everything else was pretty much self-explanatory.

Our dishwasher would trip the power box. It was happening frequently every time we used it. The person that arrived explained to me what he was going to do. Once the job was completed, he stayed a little while and let the dishwasher run to make sure that it didn't trip again. It was a positive experience.

Most recently, we had plumbers come to repair the spigot. Previously, it had gotten very tight and then we couldn't fully shut it off. It was running and dripping. The plumber had opened it and found that the internal piece was corroded and he replaced it. But the faucet is a bit loose. We don't feel secure about whether or not it's going to hold.

American Home Shield sent out a company for the garbage disposal that was not working. The technician just looked and said something was stuck in the garbage disposal and it wouldn't be covered. He said, "I can change it and give you a new one for $400.” They were trying to rip me off and take advantage of somebody who did not know what was wrong. I told American Home Shield that we don’t want that company to come to customers because that's taking advantage of people.

In every interaction that we've had with AHS, they're very consistent as far as their time management. One service never takes longer than the other. They're always very quick to reach out to someone and have someone call me immediately. I'm assuming they have lots of clients, so it's a little surprising how quick they are. My most recent claim was when the garbage disposal went out and the assigned vendor called me a couple of hours after I submitted a claim. The tech took 35 minutes to do the repair and called the next day to see how everything was going. I really liked that.

There were some electrical plugs that weren’t working and the electrician that AHS sent out was great. We're in a new home and their service has been really much better this last year. In our prior home, we had a nightmare with a washer and dryer claim. So if it's something that is a bigger item, it's kind of a pain. But if it's something that they can fix timely, it's a lot easier. They should also improve their process in making a decision that we could move forward with getting a new item. They tried to repair a 20-year-old washer and dryer and so we were pretty much out of a washer and dryer for six weeks until they decided that we could get a new one. The same thing happened with our microwave.

The tech was courteous, on time and he explained to me what he was checking for.

Overall, it was a pleasant experience. It's been a benefit knowing that my out-of-pocket is gonna be $100 and that's big savings over something that has to be replaced. It's easier to come up with $100 as opposed to 1,000.

I had a sewage backup. The first person that AHS sent out said that it was white and toilet paper. I said, “We've only been here for about a week. We have not even been here long enough to do anything.” He said, “Definitely not. I snaked it three times. I know it’s too far for one of you all to do that in here.” American Home Shield said that that's considered a foreign object and they wouldn't pay. I called my nephew and spoke with him. He got on the phone with them and asked for a second opinion. When they sent out a second opinion, the guy came, snaked 65 feet and got it.
The only other thing that may have been a problem for me was understanding the representative that I was speaking with. She was speaking English but because of her accent being so hard, it was very difficult to understand exactly what she was telling me. Other than that, I've always had a great experience with AHS.

I'm paying American Home Shield every month, so if it was something major, I pay my deductible and I don't have to worry about it.

We have a two-side door refrigerator and the refrigerator part was not cooling. Once the order was submitted, someone from 1st Choice contacted me. Then, their tech also contacted me and did a virtual consultation where I was able to hold up my phone and he was able to view the inside of my refrigerator. He was very knowledgeable of the model and the make of my refrigerator so he knew right away what the issue was. He came out the day before Thanksgiving and he kept me informed. I know he was very busy and to me, it was beyond what a regular repair person would do. I'm very happy with 1st Choice.
But with the repair company that American Home Shield sent out for the same issue back in March, I was not very happy with their service. I was frustrated. Our refrigerator went out about the same time we had that deep freeze here in Texas and lots of people were out of electricity. I'm sure that American Home Shield was overloaded with claims but I was very frustrated through that whole process of trying to get them to help me. They kept putting it back on the repairman. Other than that, I've been with American Home Shield for five years and usually, they're pretty prompt. If I call in, they address my questions.

It's been a hard year and a half with American Home Shield. I noticed during the pandemic that it took me almost a month to get a water heater replaced and my tenants didn't have hot water for a month. The tech that AHS sent out seemed like he was more concerned with trying to get the water heater replaced so that he could get the full job and pay for the 1,500 than trying to resolve the issue. It was the gas valve that needed to be replaced, so I had to pay another contractor after he left because his recommendation was to replace it, but the water heater was only a year old. And he said it was a refurbished water heater, but it's not. I had a receipt from Menards from a year and a half ago. And on a sticker, it showed it was manufactured June of 2020 and that we purchased it July of 2020.
Then, I was supposed to get $413 back and I've called at least four times. AHS said they were going to put it in the mail. Then, I had some issues with the water heater once it was replaced but they told the contractor that they couldn't help me with the issue because I received the cash-out payment. But I still haven't received that check. Right now, my tenants are still without hot water and it's been three weeks.
Aside from that, I've been paying all these $100 fees for AHS to send technicians and they tell me that this isn't covered, that's not covered, this and that. So, I've been out of more money with paying the $100 fees for contractors to come out than if I would've just paid for contractors straight out without the warranty. Anyone thinking about going with AHS should understand what's covered and not covered because there's a lot of stuff that's not covered. When the air conditioner was the issue, before the techs even came out, they were saying that if it was a Freon issue, I had to pay this and I had to pay that.
Then I ended up having to pay an independent contractor and it wasn't a Freon issue, it was a capacitor. But I had already paid the other contractor because the stuff wasn't covered. So, I felt like I've been going in circles with all of their clauses, making it difficult to get things done because, as a consumer, how do you know what all these clauses where stuff isn't covered and then you have to pay the $100 fee for people to come out to tell you that? But then, you still have to pay another contractor in addition to you paying the fee and in addition to you paying for the service call.
Dealing with AHS was also a nightmare for me during the pandemic. I would hold on the phone for an hour or 45 minutes back then and I was calling from overseas. So, it was an international thing. Then I was transferred and I was hung up on. Things have gotten better recently with getting through, but it seems like it's always another department that you have to be transferred to or they have to escalate it to someone else and get back to you. But things aren't resolved on the first call.

I don't know whether AHS benefits me. For what I'm paying monthly and how I use their services is not equaling out. I spend $71 a month for service, which equates close to $700 a year and I've only used them four times. Each time I have to pay a $75 charge. I could be putting that $71 aside and just pay for service on my own instead of using them to cover. Because right now, I really don't have any products in my house. Everything is practically new. I feel like I'm just giving away my money, especially when I have to pay $75 for the charge.
They need to lower their charge for service first. When I first started with them, it was $50 for a visit. Another thing, their policy is to come in and try to fix it. If they can't fix it, then they want to replace it. Then they want to replace it with whoever they're dealing with. I don't have a choice in the replacement part. They came in and they couldn't fix a faucet. Now, they wanted to replace it. I want the faucet that they're going to get for me, but I have no choice. I should have a choice in what I'm going to put back into my home.
I told them in advance that I had my own faucet and that I was just looking for a plumber to come in and replace it. When he got there, he said that according to the policy, they either fix it or then they replace it if they can't fix it. In order for me to install the one that I had, I had to pay them for installation. I've ended up paying the $75 to American Home Shield and additional money for having it installed through the plumber that they sent over. When I called American Home Shield, they were like, "You know this is the policy. They either fix it or replace it. You can’t purchase your own." I was never really told that.

At first, it was pretty rough with American Home Shield but they seem to be doing pretty good. I don't call them unless I absolutely have to but each time I call them, the service and everything get much better. They have been stepping up and they've improved. The first couple of times were a little sketchy, but I think it was mainly because I was a new client and they had no idea where I was. Maybe as time goes on, the computer gets more focused on where I live.
In the beginning, I had them bring a plumber out and they called somebody from Los Angeles. We live up in the northern end of Santa Barbara County and the girl that I was working with was from the Philippines. She was sweet and super nice but she had no idea where I lived. Then, it took a couple of months to get everything done because the plumber didn't finish. The first time, he said he didn't have the right tools and then we didn't hear from him for a few weeks. I had to call a lot to make sure that he came back and finish the job. But even then, he got just so far. He wasn't able to really do what needed to be done.
But this last time, they found a really good plumber. The plumber they sent out was here right away and did a great job. He had to come back but that was not his fault. And even when it backed up the second time, he was there that day. It was awesome. We also had an issue with the appliances and they took care of it. They fixed the problem with the oven, which was pretty easy for the repair guy. With the dishwasher, it was not repairable and I had to order a new dishwasher. It took a long time, but that's okay. AHS makes an effort to improve. They always ask for feedback and it seems like they always work hard to get better. I appreciate that.

I needed a new washing machine. 2 Bald Guys came and said, “Absolutely, you're gonna have to have a new washing machine. This one will never work again.” American Home Shield had already received their input and we ordered the washing machine through American Home Shield. They ordered the washing machine. They arranged for it to be delivered and installed and the old one carted off.
American Home Shield ordered it from the warehouse. The delivery people brought it and they were at my home for five minutes. They said, “We can't install it because we can't turn the water off.” I said, “I can show you where to turn it off for the entire house.” They said, “No, you’re going to have to have a plumber come first because the pipes are too old." Then, I called American Home Shield again. They had Ace Plumbing come out. They got a tool and turned the water off. But they first turned it off downstairs, which is what I'd recommended for the first company that was delivering. Ace Plumbing said, “They didn’t look like they tried very hard.”
Ace Plumbing left. The original delivery people had said, “We'll probably be the ones that come back and install.” So I called AHS again and said, “Ace Plumbing came. They fixed everything." Then, I had talked to five people, because they kept saying, “Who delivered it?” I said, “I don't have that in front of me, and I'm gonna have to hang up to get that information. But you all should have that in your system because you made those recommendations.” After talking to four people, they said, “We need to give you to the ordering people that ordered the washer in American Home Shield.” They did and then we resolved it very quickly. There were several people that needed to forward me to other people. It took about an hour and a half. But it worked out okay and they understood. When I finally got the right person that I needed to, things were handled very quickly and professionally.
They said they would not be calling the original deliverers, they would just call another provider to come and hook it up. That other provider was Ace Plumbing. Ace Plumbing had already been out there in the morning, and then they came back later in the afternoon and hooked it up. Now, I was told that there was the $100 charge for when way back the 2 Bald Guys came to either fix it or tell me that I needed a new washing machine. AHS ensured me, that the second charge, if there was a second charge, would be just to Ace Plumbing. That I would be charged $200, not $300 and $400 for all of this. I would definitely recommend American Home Shield to other people because I've had American Home Shield off and on for over 21 years.

I'm about to stop my coverage with American Home Shield. Their customer service has gone so downhill. I was talking to somebody just yesterday trying to resolve an issue. I've had a broken dishwasher for two and a half weeks now. It's been two weeks since we made the call and I'm getting the runaround. I still don't know how they're going to resolve this. I called a few days ago, the guy who came over to take a look said there are multiple parts broken and we also reported a leak, which I think caused the short. He said he didn't think it could be repaired, but AHS decided to repair it. They're giving me no information about when the part is going to come in, and I told them, "Look, you're spending $300 on parts and I think there's still something wrong with the dishwasher. Why don't you throw in $300, I'll throw in $300, and we'll just get a new one?" I just can't get through to anybody with any authority to do that.
You call their customer service and ask to speak to a supervisor because they can't do anything and they absolutely refuse to let you talk to a supervisor. This has not been my experience in the past. In the past, if I asked to speak to a supervisor who has the authority to make a decision, I get put through. But with this dishwasher, I've called three times, and every time, they just stonewall and say, "Well, a supervisor's already been notified of the situation."

The level of the water was rising and rising, and the repair people's solution was to check a few things in the pool pump, but also to point out what it is that I need to have fixed. American Home Shield's claim process works. The online claim website is very black and white. So, you have to check about 12 different boxes on there for whatever your problem is so that you don't get cut out from having something that needs covering really covered. That happened to me once. I didn't check the right box and they said, "Oh, we didn't come out here for that." So, the website should have a place for text that says, "Here's my problem."
Sometimes, if you do a claim by telephone, it is better because at least you can chat with the person on the phone and say, "Well, here's the problem, but it's really this," then they make sure that all that stuff is covered. So, I prefer to do it by phone. It used to take between 30 and 45 minutes to get somebody on the phone. I don't think it's that bad anymore if you call at an odd time, but the problem is the length of time to get a person on the telephone.

I called in a claim for the stopped-up master bedroom shower and American Home Shield assigned a plumber, Tex Pro. I talked to them and they showed up. The plumber could not get the screw out of the drain cover so she packed up and left. She said she would call back but she never did. There was a screw that was rusted in the drain cover so I decided I was going to undo the screw and make the drain accessible. When I started to do that, I found out I could rotate the drain cover about the stuck screw and have 100% access to the drain.
I called back Tex Pro quite soon after they were here and told them the drain cover can be rotated around the screw and they can get complete access to the drain. They never returned my call. Then, I called AHS and explained what the problem was. If they did anything, it wasn't evident because I never got another call. I had to pay $168 to get a real plumber to come down here and get the drain cleaned. I told AHS they ought to refund my $75 because Tex Pro didn't do anything. The rep said she had the refund form in her hand and we concluded the phone call. I never heard anything again from AHS.
The assigned company and AHS never communicated with me, except through this letter that came six or seven days after I reported the drain clog and after I had already gotten it fixed. I was really unhappy and I was really considering not renewing my contract, which was due at that time. But then, I had this business with the kitchen sink and they sent Maclin Plumbing. The plumber did such a great job that I changed my mind about American Home Shield and I re-upped my contract.

There was a GFI in my garage that kept tripping. I called American Home Shield and Electrical Service Professionals came out. They replaced the GFI. Then I started experiencing the same problem. So, they came and they stated that it was my freezer that was causing the GFI to trip. When the freezer starts running, it does some type of spike, and it’s causing my GFI to trip.
I've had American Home Shield on and off for years. But this year, it’s about five months now that I signed back with them. Putting in a claim is not complicated. When I had a problem with the washer, it took several weeks, but this electrical problem didn't take long at all. I did have a problem with getting this electrical person to come back to handle this problem. I had to talk to some type of manager and he said that I had a refrigerator and a freezer in my garage. I never told him that. That's not the situation. He really never wanted to come back out. So, that was a little frustrating. When it comes to dealing with different vendors, what American Home Shield does is one thing but what vendors do is something totally different. Sometimes, there are tech attitudes when you're dealing with some of the people that they send out to your house. American Home Shield could provide a closer type of follow-up as the process goes instead of afterwards.

Then about 10 days later they came back with the part and supposedly fixed the unit but that day the unit run totally out of control suffocating the tenants who had to call PG&E to stop it.

A-US Air called within 12 hours after we filed the request. They came at a time that they told me that they were going to be there. I asked them to give me a call an hour before arrival.

After that, they told me, “Okay, we have to check on their part.” They got back to me within an hour about the availability of the part, and the schedule for them to come back. They have several schedules for us to choose from, which is really convenient.
They were really polite and knowledgeable. The thing that they fixed doesn't seem to be an issue anymore. Two days after they fixed it, they gave us a call to check on how things were going. If I have to pay out of pocket myself, I will probably use them too, because this is a totally different experience from what we have with other people.
I have an issue with the lighting that has been ongoing. AHS sent the company, A to Z Electric, to come out and fix it. Went away for about three weeks and the problem resurfaced again. They said, "Is it okay if they send the same company?" I was like, “Okay, if they're gonna fix it for good this time.” But the company doesn't have a lot of availability. The way to schedule with them is inconvenient. When I call them, they don't answer the phone. They text me back. When I text them back, they say, “Oh, that availability is no longer available anymore.” We have to figure out other schedules.
It's not a major issue, that is why we didn't persist on sending the provider or getting them to come in to fix it right away. But we would love for things to get fixed, because we got charged every time that they have to come out. But this time, American Home Shield was so nice to say that because it's the same problem, even if over than 30 days, they're gonna waive the second call charge for us.
The problem with American Home Shield is my service call right now is $100. I want to see if I can change it to 75 or lower.

But they fixed the leak and they took care of the problem. We had another company that came out from American Home Shield and they were very bad. They were trying to fix a problem, instead they created another problem. They broke a valve on my property. He said, “I'm going to go get a valve. I'll come back to you. But let me shut off the gas.” He shut off the gas for the whole house. I had a sick son in the house. My fireplace, my gas stove, the water heater run on it.
I called their company, begged them to come out, and they said, “No. The technician said he only shut it off for the pool.” I said, “That is not true. You guys can come out and check it.” But they still wouldn't send somebody out. I called American Home Shield. I said, “Can you guys do anything with them?” American Home Shield was like, “The best thing we can do is refund you on that $75 that you paid, and that's the only thing we can do.”
I had to buy food for the whole three days that they didn't show up. I said, “If anybody is going to come out again, please make sure it's not them. Because I don't want them on my property ever again.” They were very rude about it. I asked to speak to the owner of the company just to tell her what happened. She would never call me back. AHS is struggling just as much as we are. Maybe they are finding problems getting vendors. But whenever a vendor is doing something horrific like this, not using them would be very wise because I had a bad taste in my mouth because of them. If they did it to me, they are going to do it to somebody else.
Whenever I'm looking for a company, I would make sure it's somebody that's reputable, that's been in business for a long time, that has outstanding contractors that work with them, and somebody that's willing to back me up as a customer. And that's exactly what AHS did. As a customer, they backed me up. It was fixed by sending another company out that came in and fixed the problem instead of making a problem. So, that was very nice.

The unit was not heating and a contractor with American Home Shield fixed it. However, the contractors need to be a little bit more accountable for the work they do. I had a leak on the garbage disposal. A contractor came and fixed it but there was a leak again. They came again and for every little thing, they said, "This part is covered, but this part is not." The U-shape is covered, but the other shape is not covered. I don't know if the contractors want to make it difficult for us or it's just the rules that apply to them, because, to me, it didn't make sense.

I had a claim for a stainless steel front loader washer that Brothers Appliance Service came out for. When I filed the claim, the lady from American Home Shield asked me to let her take control of my camera so she could take these photos of the serial numbers and what was wrong inside. I didn't understand that. She did that on my washer and my dryer. When I asked Brothers about it, they knew nothing of it, so I thought it was kind of fishy.
But other than that, I've had Brothers before and when I was trying to set up the appointment for the washer, I told the lady that I would like to have the same person that came before. That tech came out and he had to order parts. But he fixed the little bars inside the washer that toss the clothes to where the little edges would remain down so I could go ahead and use the washer without it carrying my clothes. Then, he was back within three days. He put the parts on and told me that everything seemed to be running fine. He also told me to make sure I call him if I had any trouble. Even if I didn't have AHS, I would use Brothers and I would recommend them to my kids who don't have AHS. Also, I would recommend AHS, especially to younger people. They raised my fee but during the time that I have paid the warranty, I'm sure I'm well over the appliance repair if I would have had to pay it out of my pocket.

There was a hose up underneath the dishwasher that had backed off and it had come detached enough that it had been leaking. We didn't know that it was leaking for a week or so until I noticed that my hardwood floor was starting to bubble. American Home Shield assigned a contractor to us and this was the second time that they were here. They fixed my icemaker before and they were very professional and clean. They did their job and got it done. They were in and out. I like them better than anybody American Home Shield sent out.
American Home Shield is wonderful and it keeps us free. We're older people and when something goes bad, it's nice to have somebody to call. They take the stress off knowing that you don't have to deal with setting up appointments and figuring out whether the service people are going to fix the issue. With American Home Shield, the technicians say that we can call back if something is not fixed and there's not going to be a $100 charge. The cost is reasonable. My only complaint is American Home Shield raised me a little bit and they didn't contact me to let me know they were gonna do that.
I also sent them a complaint about my furnace when it went out a while back during the summer. The technician that came wasn't really professional and he was scroungy-looking. He wasn't really a technician and he couldn't fix the furnace. American Home Shield got back with me and said that was just the process now. I was without air conditioning and it was a holiday in July. I had family in from Nebraska. It was three days later before American Home Shield got anybody else. I waited two days for the first technician to come then I had to wait again. It was not a fun thing. When the other guy came, he knew what he was doing and he fixed the furnace. But that shouldn't have been that long of a process.

I had two or three running toilets in my house, which caused my water bill to go up to hundreds of dollars. I called American Home Shield and at first, they didn't listen to what I was asking to be done. They put one toilet when I said there were two to three toilets in my house. They also did not put down a water leak when I said there was a possible water leak.
The first contractor AHS assigned to me never called. I called AHS back and told them that. While I was on hold, they called the contractor and said the contractor was gonna call me in the afternoon. But never received the call. I had to call AHS back and I wait a long time again for them to get the contractor changed. This all started on a Thursday and it was Monday or Tuesday that I called and said that nobody called me.
I asked if High Priority was still on AHS' list and they were and they had openings for appointments. I finally got them to come out and it was a Wednesday. They first called and they talked to me about what my problems were and what I was trying to get done. That was when they said, "According to the thing from AHS, it says toilet. We can only look at one toilet. And if you have more than one toilet possibly leaking, then we need that changed."
High Priority transferred me over directly to AHS. I waited until they answered and finally, I talked to them again and that's when they changed it to me having more than one toilet. I had to hang up then High Priority called me back. They said the changes were made on the request and they scheduled an appointment for me next day. That's why I chose High Priority because I can trust them and they actually come out and respond to the call.
The High Priority tech told me everything. He put the covers on his shoes and checked the toilets. He found the one in my master bedroom and the one downstairs in the main level were running. The tech told me, "If it runs like this, you're looking at gallons and gallons of water just going through your system, and that's why your bill was so high." He went out and looked at my meter to see if it was running. He said, "You can check the meter, and if it's continually going and you don't have any water running, then you have a leak underground." He fixed the issue and he did something to the inside. He showed me that the toilets were not running. Since then, I haven't had that running going on.
I'm really satisfied with High Priority. I've had them several times and they've always done well. But I'm canceling my AHS. They were not very productive. I had to make several calls to get the right thing done. It takes so much time. My sister had AHS and she canceled it too. You get repair after repair then they say they are gonna replace something and that is gonna be three months.

American Home Shield is a good system. I dropped it, and then I got back into it. I have quite a few systems in the house that still needed coverage. The first time I dropped it was after I replaced one of three air conditioners, which I had been worried about. It just made more sense to have everything covered. Most recently, I did a claim on the cleaner pump on the pool. It sprung a bad leak and it was draining quite a bit of water to the pool. It was original and it was like 17 years old. The overall claim process for it was pretty quick. I called them up and they came out a couple days later. The guy confirmed it was a bad pump, and I had to wait to get it ordered.

I bought the house in May and some of the appliances are not brand new. A few things have broken down and for one year, they have to come out at least three times before anything gets fixed. Then, a dishwasher needed to be replaced and I wish that it could have been fixed. But they said they couldn't get the part anymore so they replaced it. It was a high-end KitchenAid dishwasher but I believe they replaced it with the cheapest model possible. They could have provided a better replacement. I'm afraid that if the other items break and need to be replaced, they're going to give me the cheapest models possible.
The people on the phone are not the best, as well. They don't seem to understand what I'm saying sometimes and they ask the same question over and over. They make you take pictures and install the camera. Then the person comes and they have to do the same thing. They're wasting my time.

The idea that we have a warranty kind of makes me more at ease but so far, I haven't seen anything good. The first claim I had was a week after we moved in. I saw a drop of water on the floor right next to the toilet. I called American Home Shield and they realized that this was pre-existing and they wouldn't cover it. Also, I scheduled a rekey service twice and nobody has shown up.
Then, last Sunday, the water started coming out way too hot and I barely touched the knob to the hot water and it was so hot. I had a cleaning crew come in to do the floors and I wanted them to disinfect it. They started using the hot water and they started complaining that the water was boiling. The following morning, there was no hot water. I called American Home Shield and told them they need to send a technician to check the heaters.
They sent a technician who was very rude. I don't like his attitude. But he checked the water heaters and told me that both heaters were messed up. I asked him for details and he was one of those people that did not want to be at work that day. I was left with the impression that he has very little to say. Then he said he needed to take it up with AHS and that I needed a tankless water heater. He kept saying that I needed to pay $5,500 to get a tankless water heater. I said I need to talk to AHS first and he said he would put that in his notes. He would not actually look at my eyes and tell me what the problem was.
I was very unsettled after he left because he wouldn't tell me whether the heaters need to be replaced or whether they need to be repaired. He wouldn't say anything other than they were messed up. He changed a different word later on before he was leaving and said, “Both heaters are busted inside.” I asked him to elaborate on what busted means and he wouldn't tell me. He just walked away, made me sign the document that he had come here to collect his 75 bucks, and then he left. Then I called AHS and they said it would take 24 to 72 hours. But I called Friday and they said that they still don't have any notes. Is this guy actually competent to go into the house and give an estimate like this? To this day, I do not know what the problem is and I'm without hot water. I am still waiting for AHS to call me.

I opened up a claim on the AHS website late at night for a broken washer. Then I received an email a few hours later saying they had assigned the case out to a contractor and I would be hearing from them. They emailed me again the following day saying if I hadn't heard from the contractor, to go ahead and reach out to them. So they were responsive and quick. The contractor was able to diagnose the issue fairly quickly from the symptoms of the washer. It was declared unrepairable so they replaced it. I was able to select the replacement off of the American Home Shield selection and I'm still waiting for the replacement to get here. I've only opened up two claims with American Home Shield in over a year that I've had a contract with them and they've been excellent to deal with.

I used to have a warranty before and when I had a plumbing issue, the plumbing was covered, but none of the secondary damage or access to the actual issue was covered. American Home Shield was good with explaining that when I first signed up. Recently, I had water leaking from a pipe in my guest bathroom out onto the drywall in the living room floor. Infinity Plumbing capped and replaced it. I've had a great experience with them. Overall, I've had a faster response time with American Home Shield than I do with my home insurance.

When I put in a claim, it is normally timely that American Home Shield's contractor comes out to service the equipment. Recently, a technician came out and looked at three appliances. However, he wouldn't look at the icemaker because he said that we needed a plumber to turn the water off behind the refrigerator which was not true because American Home Shield sent a plumber out who said everything was fine. There was a shut-off and the guy just didn't move the refrigerator to see that it was a shut-off.
The same technician also said that there was a screw missing in my dishwasher. American Home Shield said that they couldn't repair it because there was a part missing. There's no screw missing so I'm going to call American Home Shield again to let them know that they need to send another person out for the dishwasher because the person who should have fixed the icemaker didn't. There were three things going on and the only thing that was repaired by that technician was the stove. Another technician came and repaired the icemaker. However, the dispenser where the ice comes out in the front is still not working so he's supposed to come back this week.

The door handle on my refrigerator had broke and somebody came, he saw what needed to be ordered, ordered the part, called me when the part came in, and came in and installed it. So, it was handled quickly. I just wish American Home Shield had a quicker process. One time, I had an issue with my AC and it took the tech almost a week before they could come out. And with certain things, I feel like there should be a process that can be escalated. They could have different providers that can come within 24 hours or 48 hours for certain instances. Other than that, American Home Shield has been very helpful for me. They helped me when I had a water heater go out. With the AC problem that I had that ended up being an electrical problem, it just took a long time to kind of fix it, but they assisted with that. I have the electronic thing, so I was able to get the money back for the TV because they couldn't fix it. So, overall, they've been pretty good.

I recently had a discrepancy with American Home Shield because we had purchased the house and we transferred over our contract. And the day that my contract was active with the new house, they told me that they couldn't fix our water heater because it was a pre-existing issue, which was not. So, we had to come out of pocket for that one, even though we were paying AHS to be covered for that. I was also out the service money that I had to pay on top of my monthly. They had two other companies come out and look at it and one said they could fix it, and I guess one said that was because they said it was pre-existing, which I don't understand.
The other thing is the contractor comes out to check for issues when we make the appointment, and the company has to go back through AHS before they could do anything if it's a bigger job. Let's say drywall is damaged from a leak. So, they don't fix it. They have to call and get approval through their approval side of things. In the meantime, secondary damage could be done because they have to have it approved before they could come out and fix it.

My microwave had a mind of its own and was turning on and off by itself. Also, there was a leak in my dishwasher and the guy came out and figured out everything in literally 10 minutes. Juan, the rep, was amazing. He called when he got the parts in and he came and put them in. I was extremely satisfied. I used to have Choice Warranty and they were crappy so I switched to American Home Shield and things have been great. It was the first time I’ve ever used it so I was very pleased.
The claims process is cool because AHS has a system where they can call you and look at the issues you're having at the same time. The only issue that I have is that they don’t have a lot of people who are working to come out to fix things. So, it took a month for the tech to come out. People should ask a lot of questions before signing because we didn't do that previously and there were some fine line things that they didn't tell us about. Before I decided to go with AHS, I did that because I needed to make sure that things would be covered if I called them.

I was down there with him while he was fixing it and he talked me through everything. He told me what to check in the future so that when I call someone out, I could give them a better understanding of what's wrong.
Make sure that you buy the best plan that covers the most stuff. Because you might have something that you think you won't need, and then that will be the only thing that breaks down. Always go for it. You'll pay a little more in the beginning, but it's worth it.

My double oven worked on a Sunday and didn't work on a Monday. I called and placed the claim, and American Home Shield scheduled like they normally do. They scheduled someone to come out within 20 to 48 hours. The person was supposed to come out Wednesday before Thanksgiving. The timing was not a big deal as far as Thanksgiving. At 1 o'clock in the afternoon, the guy cancelled and said that they didn't have a technician to come out as I sat in my house from 8:00 to 5:00 waiting for someone to show up. I had to take off from work. AHS needs to try to find contractors who are going to show up. Because when you have customers sitting in their homes with a window from 8:00 to 5:00, and these yo-hos call at 1:00 and say, “Oh, by the way, we're not coming,” it's annoying.
So, I called AHS and I got a girl on the phone. I said, “Look, I've been with you guys for years and I'm supposed to have service between 24 to 48 hours. Him canceling at the last minute is unacceptable. I want someone out here today.” She told me that she couldn't do it. So, I told her to cancel my contract and she was wonderful. She got on the phone, found Joe's Appliance Repair and he was an hour away from me. He has been here before to service my dishwasher. He said he could come right out and he did. Unfortunately, he didn't have the parts to fix it because they were a special order thing. He ordered them. AHS approved them right away. He showed up here the following Wednesday to fix my oven. It is fixed.
But I am going to tell AHS when I put my service requests in for any appliances that I want them to specifically call him. Because we're in an area down here where service people are horrible. And if you find somebody who is willing to come out and is half decent, then you need to hold on to that person. And that is definitely him. In the long run, a warranty saves you money. When we had my previous home, we had our heater system go out. AHS replaced it and all I had to pay for was the refrigerant. So, the program pays for itself.

I've been with American Home Shield off and on for 30 years. They're courteous when they answer the phone. You can get them quickly. I've always enjoyed working with them. However, there's a big variety of contractors in Houston where I moved from but there's not so many in this area. Usually, with American Home Shield, somebody calls you the same day but on this claim for the dryer, I didn't get a call in a couple of days. I called Tri-county and asked them what we were going to do. The rep said, "Let me walk you through some of the things you can do to make sure that we really need to come out there." She had me doing all this stuff to my dryer, trying to fix it. I told her, "I'll do all this but I know it's an electrical issue that I'm not going to be able to fix."
I spent a day working on the dryer. I called twice to get Tri-County to call me back. I left a message but it did nothing. I still needed a service appointment and didn't get a call back. I called American Home Shield and told them what was going on and immediately got a call back from Tri-County. American Home Shield did everything they needed to do. It was a matter of Tri-County not having the staff to make all the calls they were getting. They came out, diagnosed the issue and ordered the parts. A week later, they came back out. It took them 10 minutes to replace the part and everything was fine.

I submitted a claim for my unit through the Home Shield's website. It seemed pretty easy and straightforward. At first, I got a notification that someone would be contacting me. Then I got a notification of who the company was and their phone number. Not too long after that, I got a phone call. The first guy came out and he replaced something on the unit and said that it should be cooling after that. The AC ran for four hours straight and it wasn't cooling. My unit faces north. So, it doesn't get really hot. I just noticed that it shouldn't take so long for it to cool. So, I reopened the claim up and called Crispy Air. The rep had me on hold so that she could call the tech. Then she told me that the tech told her that it looked like something else was going out on the unit. So, she said that she was going to be sending out a senior tech out over here to fix it. He came out and they replaced some motor and not too long after that, it started working.
Crispy Air has been out here multiple times since they're the only ones that can really service condos. My unit is on the top floor. I've never had any issues with them. They did a good job. I used to work for First American Homebuyers Protection and I know that they can share the same contracts as some of the companies from American Home Shield.

We called in two claims. One was toilet repair and the other was a leak that was coming from our master bedroom to our second floor family room. The technician stated that it was due to the faucet in the master tub that needed a filter replacement. So he stated that, “You should call Moen to get the part, and then we'll come back out and install it.”
We called Moen and within two days, the part came. Moen sent the part and an entire replacement. So they sent more than enough. But when the technician came to the house, he started talking about his personal stuff and it had nothing to do with the work. Then he didn’t have enough tools. You could tell he didn't know what he was doing because he kept messing with it a lot. You kept hearing this turning, and twisting, and turning, and stuff was dropping. I would go up and watch him. Then he stated, “Oh, I don't think this is the right part. I'm going to have to come out another day. But you should be fine, what I temporarily did.” But sure enough, it even leaked more.
We called back to American Home Shield and we stated that they need to send another company back out. They said, “We’ll try to get someone out there to you guys. Here are these two companies.” But we never received a call back. At that time, the agent from American Home Shield said, “Just shut off the main water for the house.” So I stated to him, “If I shut off the main water to the house, I have a family of five, we’d have no access to water.” So that was what happened all weekend. Every time we needed water, we needed to maintain or watch the tub so it wouldn’t drop down to the second floor.
I kept trying to call Brick Street over and over and over again, but it would go right to voicemail. We finally got a call back from Brick Street. The lady called us late Sunday night and she said, “Hey, we haven't gotten anybody out to you. I’d try to get somebody to you on Tuesday at the earliest.” In the meantime, we were complaining to American Home Shield and we were getting nowhere. When Tuesday came around, I got a call from Brick Street saying the plumber called out sick. At this point, they never came back. But we had to get the issue fixed. So we took our own money and spent it outside of our insurance with American Home Shield. A plumber came and he used everything he needed and repaired it within 45 minutes.
A week later, Brick Street called us and asked, “Are you okay? Has the issue been resolved?” We told them that we were gonna report them and that they were a terrible business. At the same time, we put a complaint in at American Home Shield. But we were never reimbursed for paying for our repair outside of their plumbing company. So nothing was ever rectified from the entire issue. Trying to get through to talk to someone was also a task that slowed the process. We kept being automated to a system, and then it would say, “We’d call you back.” But we never got a call back.

I had an air conditioning system leak and the contractor came in two days. I showed the service technician where the problem was. He didn't do a whole lot of diagnostic from there and fixed the problem. It was not the most impressive repair that I've seen. He cut some PVC piping and just left it in the yard without even telling me he was doing that. It's not a huge thing to address, but he could have been a little more professional about it.
Also, the repair he did in the attic was haphazard. There was a drain line from the evaporator unit that he ended up propping up with a plastic water bottle which wasn't very professional. He could've used a strap, hung it from the ceiling or supported it in some other way, but he chose not to do that. So, it felt like he was rushing and not doing a thorough job.

I heard that American Home Shield was better than other companies but it was still bad. American Home Shield should have better customer service. They reschedule many times because the technicians couldn’t get to me and then having to spend another 500 in addition to the copay makes me think that I’m not going to renew next year.
Victoria,
Thanks for sharing your warranty experience. I apologize for the inconvenience we've caused you. My name is Robert and I would like to speak to you more about your claim.

N & K did a great job on the refrigerator. The tech knew exactly what the thing was, where the coils are and defrosted them. He said he needed to order a part and he cleaned up. They came back within a matter of days and replaced the part. AHS could improve their process. They expect the customer to know a lot about everything. We don't get to talk to anybody. Everybody is off in La La Land somewhere. I have to open the ticket. I have to tell them everything is wrong. They wouldn't have had to order a part if I had been talking to somebody that knew what I was talking about, but I said the refrigerator didn’t get cold anymore. The model number was easy to find. But, there's no customer service anymore. When you get somebody, they’re in another country. They don't speak the same language that I speak so there’s a lot of, “Excuse me?” cause I don't know what they're saying and they don't know what I'm saying.

Technicians come out to my house to fix my air condition when it gets hot and in the wintertime but never fix the problem. They had me spend money for a private electrician and it's not the electrical panel that has been updated. They didn't put the original equipment back into the unit and it's causing it to constantly have a shortage. I'm back into winter now and they told me it was my thermostat. It's not. It has something to do with their system that constantly shuts off. Every technician that comes put a wire and hotwire it so that the heater will run. But in the summertime, when I need to switch back to cooling, they have to come back out and remove that wire. So they never solve my problem. I've been having problems with my air conditioner for over eight years and they never send the same technician to do the job. They need to send the same tech out.
It's not fair to the other air condition guys that come out because I noticed that it's first available, and usually, first available is not the best guys. Because AHS just sends service techs and some of them just know the basics. And it seemed like the quicker they respond, the worse they are. The guys that you have to wait for, they're the good guys. This is just one guy and he's trying to answer all the calls. And if AHS sent me a good guy and I want him to come back, they wouldn't send them back. Because I understand that the first available guy could be the cheapest quote and might not be the best guy.
Every technician is going behind each other. And that's what makes service bad because they are just doing what they need to do to move on. They tell American Home Shield they change parts that I believe that they did not change because I'm having the same problem. I'm at the point now where I've had so many service calls about my unit, it’s almost like they need to replace it because I didn't do the damage. It's the technicians that they sent out that did and I'm suffering for it. Now it's cold and my unit is not working. My wife just recently put a service call in and she canceled it, then she called back because the unit kicked on on its own. We went three days, it was 47 degrees, and we had to buy electric heaters and plug it in in the house, and the unit kicked on so now the unit is kicking on and kicking off, and it's still some kind of short problem.
When they come out to fix my plumbing, that is excellent. They come and fix it, and they move on. Our electrical, they just left me hanging so they forced me to the point where I know I got insurance that is supposed to help me. But I ended up having to spend out-of-pocket to do it myself because I couldn't afford to wait.
I have had AHS send a contractor to work on my refrigerator during the quarantine and they got it up going. I understand it was hard to order parts, but even that process and me waiting and dealing with that was better than me dealing with my air conditioning service. I had to wait for six months or more for a refrigerator. In the meantime, they kept the old one running until the new one came in. And they treated me good compared to what I have to deal with with my air condition and heating unit, which is still a nightmare.

I had a gas valve go out on my heater, so I put in a online claim with AHS. They handled the rest and the repair service contacted me within an hour. They did a very good job and overall, I was pleased.

I like the process of how to report a claim. It is very simple online. I like the short time it takes to get back to me with a contractor. So far, I've been very pleased with the quality of the contractors. When the icemaker in our refrigerator stopped working, the contractor fixed it promptly. They were here when they said they would be. They had the parts with them. It was a good, solid job.

My upstairs air conditioning and heating lost power, and I submitted a claim online to American Home Shield and got a call back. But it was four days before the tech came out. It happened over a holiday weekend so that was the problem. I put a second ticket on so I can just have my downstairs serviced and from start to finish, the tech was at the house for an hour and a half. He was very quick and knowledgeable. He explained what the issue was and what he did to correct the issue. I have nothing but high marks for him. This is the second time that I've had to use AHS since I've had them and both times, it has been a good experience. I would highly recommend them.

There's a lot of stuff that I had covered before that they don't cover anymore. They went up on the price and then gave us less coverage. I didn't appreciate that. I had them replace my garbage disposal before but with my new contract, I had to pay out of pocket for a replacement. I don’t have money to give away every month just for them to be taking my little fees and then when I call them, they're not covering it.

I filed my first major claim with American Home Shield and I really wasn't sure about the process and how it went. But everyone that I've dealt with has been really great and kind of reassured me what the next step was. Also, they were very expedient in getting back to me. The claim was for the refrigerator and the first tech, Chris, came out on a Friday. He checked it and said that he couldn't repair it so he referred it out to another person. He thought it was either leaking Freon or it just wasn't working because of that. He told me to call American Home Shield if I didn't hear from anyone by that Monday. I didn't hear anything so I called American Home Shield. The young lady that I spoke to said she would contact Chris to verify what I was saying. She verified that the information that I gave her was what he recommended off of the service call.
They sent out a second company, The Fridge Guy. Their tech pulled the refrigerator out, looked at it, and said that it was leaking. He said it was inside the refrigerator and it couldn't be repaired. He said he would contact American Home Shield to let them know. He seemed very professional. I asked him a couple of questions and he answered them for me. Then, I got an email from American Home Shield about a replacement. I spoke to a gentleman and he explained that I could go shopping or if I purchased the refrigerator myself from someone else, he explained to me how much money the company would reimburse me. I've purchased one online and I haven't heard from any company about delivery and setup. I'm hoping that will go well. Other than that, with this being my first claim, I've been very pleased with the company for the most part.

My refrigerator wasn't staying cold and the techs that came out repaired it, so it works great now. I let American Home Shield of my issue with the refrigerator online. That's the way I usually do it. The website is fine. I got an email saying the name of who was gonna come and their phone number. It was Fidelity that came out and they were amazing. It took them two tries to get it. The first time, it was working for a few days. Then, it started having problems again. So, I called them back. They came back and fixed it, and it's still working great now.
Out of the last several times I've had to use American Home Shield, this was a rare good experience. I had several in a row that we really were not happy with the way things went. We had an issue with our dishwasher where we ended up having it replaced, and it took me eight months to get the check because no one was taking responsibility. It was a terrible experience. I'm happy that the refrigerator claim worked because Fidelity really came through. The key was they did what they said they would do. Then they followed up and made sure that it was repaired when they came back to fix it. All's well that ends well.

I had to pay for the new refrigerator and I charged it to my credit card. I have to pay the credit card but I haven't been reimbursed yet. They said it takes a while to get reimbursed and that put me in a bit of a bind because instead of paying my card off in full like I always do, I'm going to have to pay part of it and I'll have to pay interest. Other than that, AHS has been fantastic. They fix whatever problems I've had immediately. Also, the technicians have been wonderful and pleasant. They work nicely and they come in wearing masks -- I don't have to ask them. I had the replacements for the microwave and refrigerator arrive at the same time but the contractors were both very nice that they worked around each other. I'm very happy.
Taking care of our members is the main goal here at AHS. I am glad that you were happy with the work done.

The service is quick. But I had an issue getting my refund back. It took almost six months for them to do the tracer on it to remind me, because I had forgotten that I had gotten and deposited it. So part of that was my fault. But I had to call about seven times before I got the good answer. Different people gave me different information. But they were all very nice. The service that I do get when people come out is relatively good. I just had a service done on my garbage disposal. My home costs a million dollars, but the tech replaced this garbage disposal with one that goes in apartments. So I’m not sure that’s a good or bad thing.

The dishwasher stopped cycling through the cycles. The techs came in, replaced a part, and everything's been fine. Filing a claim with AHS is pretty simple. Once I make a claim, a rep would tell me that someone would be contacting me and reaching out. I had to use them a couple of times and the techs came out and did great work. The warranty can help the homeowner save a lot of money, especially on their appliances or anything that need to have insurance and warranties on. If you look at that same repair out of pocket, it’s a whole lot more, even though you’re paying them the monthly charges. Once you pay that service fee, your payment is pretty much done, unless it's something that's not covered. But so far, my dealings with AHS have saved me money on my air conditioner that would have cost me a lot more out of pocket.
Other than that, the lady that referred me to American Home Shield was supposed to get a referral fee and she never got her referral as far as she told me. I did not even know anything about them and she told me that it was a great product to have that she'd been using for a long time. If I refer someone, I would want that credited to my account as well.

The upper shelf on the dishwasher came off the track. A young man came out and did a very good job. He was informative and he showed me why I was having the problem and that nothing was really broken. I just didn't know I didn't know that there's a latch that I had to close so that when I pull out the upper shelf all the way out, it doesn't come off the track.
One thing about American Home Shield is you always have to wait a long time to get through to them when you have a claim. This time, it was interesting. They sent me a download so that I could take pictures of the problem so that they could see it right as I was speaking with them. I liked the service but it was cumbersome because I've never done that before. There should be some tutorial on it.
People ought to have coverage and what to look for in one is how quick the response time is. American Home Shield was quick this time. But I had times that there was a wait time. What American Shield has done since I first started with them is if you call for one appliance and they ask you if you're having any issues with any other appliance, you can bundle it all together for that same one fee. I like that.
