    The washing machine was leaking water and I had to go on my phone with American Home Shield. They got me in contact with somebody and sent them out. The tech fixed everything. The experience with American Home Shield has been great. The contractors come out very quickly and get the job done.

    Our AC went out. The techs came in three days and it was horrible. It was almost 100 degrees that week. But they seemed to know exactly what was wrong. They fixed it pretty quickly. I like that I get stuff fixed through AHS and that I don't have a huge payment to fix something every time something breaks. But it would have been nice if things get fixed a little quicker.

    I had a clogged drain. I called American Home Shield and it was difficult to get ahold of them by phone. But it was a breeze when it was online. Then, the tech came out and took care of the problem. He was fantastic and very courteous. If I asked him a question, he was able to explain to me what was going on. Since then, the drain has been working perfectly and I didn't have any problems at all. I'd tell my friends to get AHS, too.

    All the time, the representatives are good when I talk to them, and I don't have a problem with them. The problem is the people who do the job. Silver Star was no good, and I don't recommend this company to anybody. The dishwasher was out, and when the guy came at the house, he looked at it and just touched it a little, but he didn't fix it. He didn't open the control panel.

    American Home Shield provided another company, and I like the guy who came. He was very professional. He asked me what the problem was, I explained them, then he started working. He opened the dishwasher and pulled out the control panel. He told me, “Jose, the control panel is out. This is why your machine doesn't work. This one needs to be replaced.” Now, I'm still waiting for the part, and American Home Shield doesn't respond because they said the part takes five to seven weeks. It's too long, and I’m not happy with that also. Even if you order the parts, you can have it in one to two weeks.

    I was very, very, very frustrated with American Home Shield. I can't talk to anyone in the United States. I can't talk to anyone without an accent, and they didn't listen to me. I broke my ankle, and then the air conditioner went out. I had two weeks leave time for somebody to come and the vendor said, "Well, you might want to call back and see if maybe somebody can come sooner." I did that and they canceled my appointment. After two weeks of being in a hot house with a broken leg, I had no one coming. I was beside myself. When I asked American Home Shield for other people, they gave me people that weren't even coming to the area. It was a total waste of time. I was furious. I hate it. Finally, my husband got on the phone and got them to admit there is no one in United States even.

    I would never recommend American Home Shield and I will warn people against using them because there's no one in United States. Their people don't listen and they argued with me when I asked for help. I would be better off not having a service plan. They advertise things that they don't really do. I'll finish out my contract, and then I'm moving on. They are horrible.

    It was very shaky at the beginning when I joined American Home Shield. If you called anybody, you spoke to somebody in the Philippines who knew nothing. My account on their website was wrong. They said that my account was cancelled when it wasn't. That was the previous owner. But it got straightened out. I've had a claim for the roof, plumbing, air conditioner and garage door opener. Doing a claim online works better than speaking to somebody that has no idea what they're doing. You go online and choose what the problem is. American Home Shield takes your 75 bucks and sends you whoever the approved vendor is. The garage door opener claim worked well. They had to order the part because they didn't have the part on the truck. They got it in a few days and it got fixed before it totally broke.

    A couple of months ago, I took them up on their HVAC maintenance. A guy came out, looked at it and cleaned it. There was a part that was weak but he didn't replace it. He said, "This is kind of okay." Then my HVAC started making noise so I called. A different guy came and went to the same part. He said it was not good. I told him about the first guy telling me when he was here last time that it was not good. The second guy said, "They're not going to replace the parts when they just come for maintenance. You have to call them again, have another service call then they’ll replace it."

    The company did as I request and refunded the 1 service call. I am still a repeat customer of American Home Shield. This was my only bad experience. However, issue has been resolved. Still only deserves a 3 rating. As they are still doing business with that dishonest garage door company.

    Original Review: Aug. 9, 2022

    I paid American Home Shield (AHS) $125 for a Garage Door Opener (GDO) Service Call; 1st appt "#1 GARAGE DOOR LLC ph. 407-601-0182" invoice for $350 or $700 (Repairs needed: Garage Door Balancing, Spring and Wheel Replacements due to lack of Maintenance). I called AHS to complain that the invoice listed repairs for everything but the GDO also, was verbally advised to order a motor. 2nd Appt "Ace's Garage Door Repair & Installation ph.407-457-7225" advised repairs would cost $750 no invoice left.(Repairs needed: Garage Door Balancing, Spring, Belt and Wheel Replacements). I contacted AHS and complained again about how both companies were advising repairs for everything but the covered GDO. Upon receiving the GDO Motor I again contacted AHS to find out who will put the motor in. I was advised I would need to pay another $125.

    A neighbor referred me to "Central Door of Winter Haven ph. (863) 324-3719" whom dispatched Rick to my home at no cost additionally there was no cost to fix my Garage Door Opener, Nothing was wrong with the GDO Motor, NO Balancing needed, the spring was fine. The suggestion to replace the wheels in the future (cause of jam). AGAIN it cost me nothing (ZERO Dollars). I contacted AHS multiple times advising of this information; nothing was done. Then I got an incoming call from AHS. I advised not to dispatch "#1 Garage Door LLC OR Ace's Garage Door Repair & Installation" for any repairs and they should consider Central Door of Winter Haven ph. (863) 324-3719 as a contractor. Each complaint call with AHS I advised I should not have to pay that $125, was told my complaint would be forwarded.

    Today I spoke with AHS "Ativa" as it's time for my AHS renewal. However, I do not find AHS standing by "Our Shield Assurances are always included, even in our base plans & Breakdowns caused by lack of maintenance." I have a brand new Motor that I do not need. I have been with AHS for about 3 Years. Up until now I have no complaints. But each AHS representative advised of escalation. The only representative I actually believe is Ativa.

    The booster pump was still working, but it was noisy. Then a few weeks ago, I got up and the main pump was making a horrible noise. I knew that meant the bearings are going bad. I called American Home Shield and it was very easy to get through. The person I had was easy to understand and this process was really good. It went very well. I called them on a Friday and then Shocker Pools came out the next Monday. They saw the problem, ordered the parts, and by Friday at noon, everything was back up and running. They ended up replacing both pumps. This time, I was very satisfied with American Home Shield. But a year ago, my hot water heater went out, and it took two weeks to get it replaced. I was very unhappy about that.

I like that with AHS, if something happens and you can't fix it, they come out right away and they're on it. Also, my dryer stopped working. The guy fixed the heating element and in less than an hour, it was done. The only bad experience I had was when my washing machine started leaking water. Sears was supposed to come out on a Friday.

    The AC went down and the guy that fixed it was very knowledgeable, professional, and courteous. He told me that something made the capacitor go bad. So, that was how thorough he was and he showed me. He had everything done inside of an hour. It took a week and a half to two weeks to get him down but it was really hot and a lot of AC was broken.

    We have two air conditioning units. The first time a technician had to come out, we had to have a service request for each unit. I didn't know that so that was disappointing because they were already out here and both air conditioners needed the work done. The technician said to make sure to call in because if you do it online, it's just going to show that the unit one needs to be serviced again and he wouldn't be able to touch unit two. That was dumb. I had to pay $75 per time a technician came out and for them to come back out again. They also just put refrigerant in the unit, which was great, because it works fine now. But I had to pay an additional $300 for that. That aside the technicians were fine and they fixed the problem 30 minutes each time.

    A service guy came out and checked a few things. He was personable and he knew what he was talking about. Went right to the unit and did a few things near the unit outside to make sure there was no problem with growth from some plants. It turned out that wasn't the issue. He cleaned the unit out and he did everything he could think of. He felt like it wasn't the AC particularly.

    Our unit is still not working. The service guy told us at that time that maybe it could be the breaker panel because it keeps turning off. We have to keep hitting the breaker. He suggested that if it continues, we were to call an electrician. I'm waiting on one now. This claim has been going on for a couple of weeks. When the unit was not working after three or four days, we emailed Home Shield on a weekend and they got back to my husband on a Monday. It's only been this week that we've reached out to them through that.

    American Home Shield is fairly quick at responding and usually gets somebody within a few days. Everybody that's come out for different things in our house has been fine. They're professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. When they come out, they're great depending on the situation. We had a problem with our AC a couple of years ago. It was bad and it took three or four weeks before it was resolved and it was about 100 in Florida. Another time there was a claim for a washing machine and that was a major problem. I went out and bought another one because I didn't want to hassle with Home Shield. It wasn't their fault. For our oven, which was another problem recently, they recommended replacing it because it was an antique. They were right on that and called us right away and we're in the process of looking at that. Overall, we've been content with the home warranty so far.

    The service with American Home Shield is pretty good. There's just something that I would like to see changed. They need some kind of amendment because sometimes you got to wait for a particular contractor to call you back. I got a plumbing problem. American Home Shield is doing all they possibly can. I understand that but they should be able to send another technician to handle my problem instead of me waiting for this one person.

    DMV came out, initially, and they looked at my leak. They said, “Okay. What you need is you need a special filter and you need a new garbage disposal.” So, I bought a new garbage disposal and I ordered this special filter, and they said, “Okay, if you call us back before 30, then what's going to happen is that you don't have to pay the service charge for them to come back out.” I've been trying to get with them and I haven't been able to get with them.

    There was water leaking on the floor from the refrigerator and the technician from Laha's Appliance Repair came as soon as they got the call. He was very professional and knowledgeable. I told him what was going on and he listened carefully. Then, he looked at the refrigerator and found out that there was ice in the bottom of the freezer, indicating that the frost water was pooling there. He said that was fairly common and that he had seen it before. Apparently, the drain was clogged and water would run out through the door and along the side, and leak on the floor. And we have hardwood floors, so that was the concern. I have an engineering background and I don't know refrigerators, but it all made sense because he analyzed what was going on, then he showed and told me about it.

    Then he left with the promise that he would get the parts ordered. He said we needed a new drain hose, then he suggested getting a new door gasket because of the age of the refrigerator. I said that sounded good and he told me that I should hear from them in a week or two. He also said I should feel free to call if I didn't. That was back in early May and since then, I couldn't get ahold of the contractor. I called American Home Shield and the person would apologize and say that they were going to follow up, but I never got follow-up calls. Finally, at the beginning of July, my issue got escalated and I got a different contractor. Their guy came immediately, fixed it, and it was all done very quickly. So, the lag in there wasn't great but in the end, the result was very good.

    I also had a claim for the microwave that stopped working completely. It would sound like it was running, but it wouldn't heat.

    Comfort First Heating came out and they were good. I called them on a weekend so they didn't get in until Monday. It wasn't emergent so they were on time. Nobody has beaten American Home Shield outright. I picked up a different one that would repair everything with my refrigerator freezer because they don't repair ice machines. But AHS has replaced several appliances as well as condensers and compressors for the AC system at least twice over the years. My neighbors picked up AHS too because of me. But they had a bad experience versus me and got rid of it. Some places cover the roof and AHS didn't when I got mine.

    The gentleman showed up and troubleshot the problem. He told me that he would have to order the parts. They're scheduled to come tomorrow and finish the job. I like the fact that American Home Shield puts us in touch with somebody who can do the work that's necessary, and I've got a $75 copay, and the rest is covered. So it’s hard to beat. Everything has been spot on. The contractors that they have put me in touch with have always been exemplary in their response to me as well as their ability to take care of the problem. I've had no complaints at all other than the premium is a little steep, but so is the repairs so I get it.

    The process in terms of having to pay the service call upfront is what one has to do. I would have included both the panel on the refrigerator and the microwave because they were the same type of issue, but someone submitted the request to American Home Shield for me and they didn’t. The one thing I am not thrilled about that we couldn't go back and revise is that, “Well, can you just look at this as well? This is the same thing.” That didn't feel that great, especially because it was a GE specialist that came out, and the refrigerator and the microwave were both GE appliances. Plus, it was specifically the control panel on both.

    The control panel on the icemaker works 80% of the time, but then sometimes, it just starts blinking randomly and the icemaker won't do the ice. You got to wait. There's no rhyme or reason to it, and we weren't able to have the GE specialist look at it. If that's something that we can get waived, to have somebody come out and look at, at this point, I certainly would like that assessment. In terms of what the GE specialist was able to do though, the person came in, assessed things, and then repaired the microwave. So, it works fine.

    The company that American Home Shield sent out finally for the stove was satisfactory but the home warranty in itself is very disorganized and they're not clear with their warranties, stipulations, and policies. I had to call AHS several times and keep up on it just to have them send the order to the company to the technician to have him come out. They kept saying they sent the order to them. So, I would call him and he would say he never got it. So, it's just back and forth, trying to get them to do what they said they were going to do. And eventually, it went through.

    We thought that it would be easier to have things replaced under AHS and repaired. But it's never been an easy experience. We have two homes that are under American Home Shield and we are in the process of canceling our membership with them in the next month or so. I have to do their job for them and they negate on things that they said they would do and they don't do. We had an air conditioning unit in Georgia and our original warranty plan was that, if the air conditioning went out, that they would replace it. And all they kept doing was sending technicians out and putting band-aid upon band-aid on something that should have been replaced years ago.

    For my recent claim with AHS, the air conditioner would not cool. The techs were able to find a leak in the system and they were able to repair that, charge it, and get it going. When they were troubleshooting it, their original determination was that the coil was bad and that the leak might be in a place where they would have to replace the whole outside unit. Through their troubleshooting, they were able to discover that it was a leak in a place that they could repair and they repaired it and it was all good. In the meantime, I got a message from AHS saying, "The determination is that the outside unit needs to be replaced. It is not covered. That'll be $600. It is wear and tear." I was very disappointed. Though it worked out okay in the end, it diminishes my trust in the American Shield and that anything that goes bad is going to be determined as normal wear and tear and I won't be covered and I'm paying for nothing.

But the tech showed me exactly those old metal pipes. They started corroding from the inside. And he said it makes it to where they don’t drain as well. He told me that it needed to be replaced with PVC so it would get fixed. But he said all that he could do right then was to run that thing through there. And he said that if I continue to have problems with it, I should turn it back in. It’s not draining as fast as it once drained, but now it does drain.

    I really appreciated American Home Shield’s service this year. I have invested in this since I bought the house five years ago and have used it on a couple of occasions. This summer, I've had two incidences where AHS had just kicked in big time. I had a bad leak under the sink because my garbage disposal went out, and somebody came and replaced it. I had a 35-year-old dryer that had a plastic part that started breaking after 35 years, and it was snagging my clothes. So, we looked for the replacement part, and it could not be found. AHS said, “Well, get a new dryer.” So twice this summer, I’ve used it in a really big way.

    SWAT Plumbing was awesome. I was leaving town, and my niece was here staying at the house. SWAT was in the area. They came with exactly the right thing to replace it, and their customer service was outstanding. Overall, I could have used a little more information on the replacement program for the dryer. AHS sent me good information and I did choose an upscaled dryer and paid the difference. I was very happy with what they provided in terms of options and the amount that they were willing to provide for the replacement. I have no questions there. It's just you have to be a smart consumer. I hadn’t bought a dryer in 35 years. So, when I picked out the dryer, I went with the specifications that were listed, and it clearly says the front door is reversible. I wanted it to open in a certain way because of the configuration of the room, and it doesn’t. That’s a Maytag description problem though.

    The other thing that was a little bit of a surprise to me was because I haven’t bought one in so long, the delivery company brings the machine and they didn't bring the cord for the machine. We couldn’t plug it in to see if it worked because that’s not part of what they provide. So, now I’ve learned by reading online that a lot of manufacturers are doing this because they don’t know if your home is gonna have a three-prong plug or a four-prong plug. It's just when American Home Shield said, “We're paying for your new machine and for installation,” I thought that meant I'd be able to turn it on.

    When I called American Home Shield, I said, ”Guess what? These machines don’t come with electrical cords. And so, it’s not installed." The guy was great. He said, “We’re gonna get somebody out there to install it.” The company's communications were not great though. They didn’t contact me within 24 hours. I tried to leave messages for them, but the voicemail box was full. It said, “Do you want to send a text with our phone number as an SMS message?” Yesterday, the guy did try to call me back and I happened to be in church and my phone was off, so I didn’t hear it but we connected yesterday afternoon.

    Calling that company is a problem. You call and the voicemail is full. Sometimes, when he called me back, the noise on the line was such that I couldn’t hear him. So, I was a little apprehensive when the guy came this morning but he was clean, quick, polite and efficient. He knew his stuff. So, I have to give them a wonderful recommendation based on the actual service. The contact was a little sketchy but the actual serviceman was fabulous.

So, I was suspecting that might be the case again, but apparently, that was not the case. The young man who came out this time was very nice and he said that the cooling units on the outside collected some dust. He said they needed to be periodically cleaned out so, he took the covers off and cleaned them out. The unit seems to be working better since the repair. I also had another issue just before that about our hot water heater that had gone out and it took six weeks to get that done.

    The garbage disposal got stuck and the tech got it back to work. He was awesome. AHS has been saving me money, although there are things that they don't cover that for the price, they should. For example, if you have a leaking faucet, they don't cover that. You’d think, they'd be willing to go in there and cover the less expensive things. But that's the only thing I'm disappointed in and generally, I’m very satisfied with their service.

    There was a pipe that was not connected correctly and it leaked everywhere. We didn't know that it was leaking ‘cause of the position of the pipe. When I noticed that everything was falling apart, that was when I put in the claim. Within 10 minutes after the AHS rep and I got off the phone, the plumbing service was already calling me. The visit went well. The plumber knew exactly what he was talking about and explained to us what was happening. He even advised to get a cap to block off the water until someone came out to fix it.

    There was a problem with my AC. Getting through to AHS wasn't hard. But the contractor was supposed to call or email me in 48 hours. They never did. As my money is going out, I need somebody to get with me. I shouldn't have to call the company. I had to wait two weeks before somebody came. I showed the tech everything and he went to do everything. But he didn't do the job because I'm still not cold. I had to go out and buy a fan.

    So far, the service from AHS has been good. We don’t seem to wait very long for service for different things and the issue usually gets fixed quickly after the techs get there. The capacitor recently went out on our AC and we waited for a week for the techs to come. But I know that at this time of the year, when it's 100 degrees out, everybody's backed up. When the techs came out, they had the needed part. Other than that, American Home Shield's pricing has really gone up a lot, which is making me want to look at other companies for this service. It was around 400 and it's 750-ish now, in about seven years. So, it was a big jump.

    I was going to call American Home Shield today to find out what's going on with my claim. They were supposed to call me back.

They sent some electrical company out and they sent their review to AHS, and they came back and said it's not covered. They haven’t done anything. So, I'm not a happy camper.

    I've referred AHS to three separate people. One of them is a personal friend of mine, and she had called them out because her washing machine was messed up. The guy came out and told them that it was the transmission, and then they said they wouldn't cover it. So, she's not happy, and I'm not happy that that's embarrassing to me.

I live in Amarillo, and they required the job to be done a two-hour drive away from here, instead of having somebody located in Amarillo, to give them my job. I had to wait five days, so I had to do something so the water can stop flowing out of the shower. Because I couldn't turn it off. I asked American Home Shield, "You can't make any better?" They said, "No, this is as close as we can get." Amarillo is not small. There are eight different plumbing companies here, but the company they assigned is in Lubbock. I said, "As big as your company, you can't even reach out to a different company?"

    That got me frustrated. My shower started leaking on Tuesday, and they didn't come up to look at my house till Thursday, the following week. I was mad. I said, "I'm already looking at something else." American Home Shield said, "Well, you can give them our information. They can call us, and we can approve them." I said, "Excuse me? I'm paying you to do me the service. Why am I gonna do your service?" I didn't like that at all. However, the company from Lubbock did a good job.

    AHS has got to stop recommending vendors that have bad reviews. They needed to do a better job picking their vendors. The second thing is, we just got a price increase. Got a letter. Maybe there could be better communication around that. There's a lot of fine print and a lot of stuff that's not covered that you would think would be covered.

When the guy called to say he was on his way, he called thinking he was calling another client. Then the office called and said that my technician was on the way. When he came, he looked at the sump pump and saw that there was some mold down there. He said, "I can't be here." He never looked at the water heater. I had to have someone come look at the water heater. They couldn't get it lit. I was wondering do I pay another $75 to American Home Shield for someone to come to look at it again. He did nothing.

    The compressor broke down and the techs came out and looked at it. American Home Shield said they wanted somebody else to come out and look at it. I waited three weeks for the second team of people. They were okay. However, this whole thing took six weeks without our refrigerator. That was what I was unhappy about. But they finally got it fixed. But I didn't appreciate AHS having to use two contractors and it's inconvenient when you're not at home. I had to hire somebody to come over and wait for the contractors.

    I recently had two things with American Home Shield. One was a kitchen sink. The water pressure for the hot water was gone all of a sudden. There was a debris that got loose on the pipe and was blocking. The contractor also checked that I had a gas leak around my dryer, and they found out it wasn't so much a gas leak as much as an unconnected pipe that was emitting sewer gas.

    The tech was fantastic, so generous with his time. He spent hours and hours with me, and he had to kept going back to the store to get parts. He got parts but they were broken out of the package. So, he just went back to the store. He was pleasant to work with. And he was good at taking care of it like it was his own home. The other day, I called in for another thing. But I would have to be on hold for 45 minutes in order to reach somebody. I called in from a different time zone, so maybe it was late East Coast. But it was still normal hours in the West Coast. That threw me off. But for all these years, I’ve had good experiences. It's peace of mind for just being able to call somebody and know that it would be handled just for the one-time fee. So, it's more consistent for my budget.

    My last experience wasn't up to par, but as a whole, I like American Home Shield. I had a toilet issue and the first time the guy came, he didn't fix the toilet properly and the leak was still happening. So, he had to come back and he fixed the toilet. We told him about the leak and he said it was the tub. So, he caulked around the tub and said that that was the problem. It was still leaking. So, he had to come back a third time. Now, the ceiling where it leaked down to was torn out. He said that they don't repair that part of it. He fixed the leak, but he didn't fix my ceiling. So, I wanted to call and find out now who's responsible for that.

    I've been calling American Home Shield about a whole bunch of stuff. My issue is I can't always understand customer service and they don't understand the way we speak and the comments that we make. They're so regimented to just keep going and it has to do with being from another place. When I did a claim, I got a text that said who would be the contractor. Bestway repaired my tub that was backing up and two of my sinks that were leaking around the faucet. In this instance, I didn't have to call them. Instead, they actually called me to schedule an appointment. Sometimes you would have to call these people and they act like they don't know they got the notice and I would just be mad.

    The one that came out for the service was interesting in the fact that he was not your typical guy. He was very nice and respectful. I showed him what I was having an issue with and he was able to rectify it. I liked that he took the time to explain to me what was going on and why. My sisters, cousins, and females usually stay in the room with the tub and they always use the bathroom there. Hair clogged up the tub. The tech did as much as he could and the tub is working fine now. I was really excited about it. The tub is wonderful and I'm no longer embarrassed.

    I've been with American Home Shield for years. I had gone to one other company but they lied and didn't do replacements. When I came back to American Home Shield, it was $43 and after a year, they went up to $53. My problem is not that they went up but that they didn't tell me anything. Recently, I had to act like a fool because they went up to $70 and nobody said anything. What American Home Shield does not understand is that I put enough for my bills in my account. Everything is zero until I get ready to pay bills again and I move money around. When I called the American Home Shield, the lady I spoke with told me they were doing the increase because they have to account for everything going up.

    On the whole, I'm satisfied with my results and I love what I receive from American Home Shield. I've been with them since 2000 and they've replaced the HVAC, bought me a brand-new refrigerator, and done the AC. There were some things that I needed the warranty for like the plumbing and this and that. It really helps and it's worth it. What I always do to make myself feel good is when technicians come by the house, I ask myself, "If I have to pay the contractor directly, what would this have been?" I'm actually getting value for my money.

    American Home Shield is very good. Just make sure you stay on them as far as watching when they get ready to charge you after your year. The only thing I'm not satisfied with is the folks not understanding the concept of me putting enough money on my account and the fact that American Home Shield is drafting me. Other than that, I am a big proponent of telling people to get American Home Shield because I don't want to be bothered to fix things.

    There was leakage in the main bedroom and the hot water heater is in a particular closet in that main bedroom. So when the techs came out, they said there was some pan that was full. And they had to drain the water to stop the leak. They ended up having to turn the AC off to prevent the leakage in the bedroom because there had been four leaks. And while they were out there, the plumber mentioned something about the hot water heater. I then called back and got another claim for them to come back out and look at that. It was going to take over a week for them to come back but my brother-in-law called to see if they could speed it up because my sister was due to deliver any day, it was hot in the house, and it was uncomfortable. So they came out the very next day. They were on time and did everything they needed to do.

    American Home Shield gets vendors with 1 and 2-point star reviews and that's not right. I don't think customers should have to be doing business with anybody that has a 1-point or 2-star review because that reflects the work. If a customer gets the draw of the luck and gets a bad one, then they're going to end up wasting a lot of time from someone competent. I have an AC issue on my policy now. I called in on Saturday to report it, and then American Home Shield selected a company that has 1-point star review, Eagle Heating. But I'm not going to have them in my home because I respect my home and work hard to maintain my home and I don't want any cowboy coming to my home. So I thought to escalate because the lady charged my card. If I'm paying $100 for a call out, I want to make sure that the person being called out can do the job.

    The lady said that my card has been charged, but no one has been assigned. She has to get the supervisor to call me. It takes 24 hours for the supervisor to call me. But in the meantime, my AC system froze at my personal home. It's so cold and then it's leaking. On top of that, it's so freezing in my house, I have to open the windows and I have to shut this thing off, but the house is still freezing. It seems like it is programming itself to go on under 70. I chased the supervisor today and then the phone cut off. So that was a big waste of time.

    I recommend American Home Shield but it's a lot of grief and stress. I've got four properties with American Home Shield and I'm not treated as a valued customer. I had a claim for the washing machine and dryer but it was never fixed. I had three different companies come out that said it was fixed. Every time they said it was fixed, I paid the call-out fee, which is $100, but come to find out they just kept ordering parts and putting all these parts in. But it was not working every time they came.

    All these companies said, "I can't fix it. Try another company." We kept going on and on like that. The tenant was threatening to move out. They wanted their whole money back. So that happened and then, the manager called me and he was apologetic. He said, "Oh, we're gonna get a third company to come out on Monday," which was this Monday. But if three contractors said they cannot fix something, then it can't be fixed.

    When I asked the rep to get reports from each of those companies, which he should've in the first place, he said, "Oh, yeah, you need a new washer and dryer because it can't be fixed." But why did it take five months? Why have I spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars of call out to these companies when they weren't fixing it right? So on one hand, American Home Shield gives you a little bit of help in terms of getting your stuff fixed, but it's a lot of stress, and then you get a lot of overseas people from the initial contact and they could be anywhere, and then they seem a little bit clueless. Sometimes you can understand someone, but sometimes you can't. That can be frustrating too.

    American Home Shield offered a better value. So far, so good. On the website, I followed the directions. It submitted the claim. AHS sent an email and that gave us a number for Air Design. We called them and they said someone would be out. Someone came out the day they told us they would be. He told us that he would have to order a part. And as soon as that part came in, he would be back to complete the job. It was a small part that needed to be put in there in order for the air to jump on. My system goes from heating to air all in one. So, it was a little switch that would take it from the heat to the air condition that had gone out. That was what he replaced.

Somebody came again and after that, no feedback was provided. I contacted American Home Shield. They asked for feedback from the technician.

    When our hot water heater was leaking, we paid the $75 fee for somebody to come out and look at it. American Home Shield sent out a contractor they work with. The gentleman did a great job. He was able to get it repaired for us. So it was a good experience. But I did find it tedious that I needed to take my phone and film the problem and then have the interaction recorded for the agent to be able to relay it to the contractor. I haven't done that before, so that was a little challenging. I would have rather just been able to call and say, “Hey, I have a problem. Send the contractor. Have them look at it.” But other than that, it was fine.

    American Home Shield's service is expensive every month, but I had to have my built-in refrigerator fixed and it covered that, which I was very happy about. I just scheduled the appointment and the guys showed up and took care of it. They were very good and I'd use them again. They had to get parts specifically for that unit and that took a little while. When they first came out, we went on vacation and we were gone for 10 days. Then we came back on a Thursday night and they were there on Friday to fix it.

    Other than that, the video claim thing helps a lot by showing what's the make and model of the appliance I'm having issues with. Several years ago, the first time we had someone come out, I told them what kind of a refrigerator we had, but they didn't ask whether it was built in or not. So when they came out, that was when they saw it and they said they didn't work on built-ins. So, we had to go through AHS and get another contractor to come out that did work on built-ins.

She flat out lied and she just tried to get me off the phone that day. When the techs came to fix something else that was wrong, they fixed the AC and they were supposed to credit me with the first because I had so much trouble. The claim experience ended up okay after I raised hell with them for a while.

    I also have another claim on a dryer. They had to send somebody else out. The techs found the other problem and ordered two parts. It's been over two weeks but the part has not been shipped yet. Somebody called me Friday and said if it hasn't been shipped by today, he was gonna call me back and do something else.

The only drawback is when you have to wait for parts that have to be ordered. But because of COVID, you understand the delays going to get replacement parts. Other than that, it has been positive.

    I was highly dissatisfied with American Home Shield. Whenever I would put in a request for a work order, 9 out of 10 times, they would tell me that the item is not covered. It's not like I call every month. I was wasting money so I canceled it. It wasn't serving a purpose for me to continue working. I had issues in the past with the ceiling fan, my light fixture outside, the doorbell and the lights over my sink and outlets. They just said it wasn't covered under the contract and I was paying close to $100 a month. So, I'll just pay out of pocket. AHS should cover what they say they're going to cover because the contract makes it appear as if it weren't covered. Also, the people that they have contracted, some were good but then some would put you off forever. And you need the person to come on and fix it if you have something broken down, not wait a week or two.

    I've had a couple of things go wrong and they were easily remedied. I paid nothing out of pocket except the monthly fee and the service charge. The only thing I'm flustered about is my claim for the air conditioner/heater. In the winter, the heat would quit working and it's been an ongoing thing. The contractor, May Heating and Air, are trying to fix it but it's just not working. They replaced the motor, they've come out and cleaned it, and they did X, Y and Z. The last time the guy came, he said it was low on Freon and he tried to put coolant. We crossed our fingers that that would work and it did not.

    They are supposed to come back out on Tuesday. I asked them about the process to just having the whole thing replaced if the repair still does not work at this time. I'm so sick of being hot in the summer and cold in the winter. Not to mention I'm paying for the power of my upstairs unit keeping the whole house cold. So, that's draining me financially as well. Also, the unit is almost 20 years old and I've been told, even prior to having American Home Shield, that it was on its last leg.

    The air conditioning system in our old home had two separate units that covered the home and both of them had to be replaced. I was very pleased with how the replacement was handled. In one instance, the evaporator coil needed to be replaced but it was sitting on top of a furnace that was the same age as that unit and I elected to replace the whole system and take an in-lieu payment for just the evaporator and was very pleased with the way it worked out.

    My problem starts with my central AC unit becoming inoperable. The unit was displaying an error code indicating a blower motor fault. I contacted AHS, they collected my $100 fee, a technician came out and confirmed the problem as a defective blower motor. He leaves and nothing happens until I log into their website and notice AHS has CLOSED OUT THE REPAIR! After spending hours trying to reach them, they made up an excuse for believing the repair had been done. I asked the overseas agent why the order was closed out and they indicated they wished to do business with a different vendor, however, no new item was opened.

    I am 70 and in frail health and this house is now uncomfortable to be in. I beg the agent for an expedited process and she admits AHS cannot find another authorized contractor. She give me a list of authorized contractors; none were doing business with AHS at the time. She admits AHS felt the repair from the initial contractor was too expensive (this blower motor alone is about $1200 because I looked it up online). The agent contacts the original contractor, they hang up with the agent and call me directly on another line while I am talking to the agent. I put the contractor and agent on a speaker and the contractor tells me they were ready to perform the repair in a timely manner but were removed. They said they will not be doing business with AHS anymore and wished me luck with the AHS process (all within earshot of the AHS agent).

    This is making for a very stressful situation, so I plead with the agent to allow me to contact my normal HVAC company. After some days (during which I was never contacted), I call back and am issued an approval to hire an outside contractor, which comes with several stipulations. Mostly, they have to contact AHS and I have to pay for the repair out-of-pocket. The requirements are forwarded to the contractor who completes the work satisfactorily. I then submit the paperwork through their channels and wait for my check. Nothing happens. I contact the approval company to find the contractor didn't call until 2 weeks after the repair. The contractor claimed they couldn't reach the number given until later (there are lengthy wait times).

    AHS is refusing to pay using the excuse the contractor didn't contact them in time. I have been on the phone with overseas agents supervisors (clearly reading from a script) and they are unmoved. The fact I had to take over all of the responsibility for the repair from AHS meant nothing to them and they refuse to refund $2136 of money they told me to pay out. Please do not be lulled into a false sense of security off of their slick advertising!

All the calls are routed over to the Philippines and they don't know anything about what's going on here. We had to talk to three different people about this recent claim alone to try to get an understanding.

    Sometimes, you don't have the money to fix something that's broken but you could call American Home Shield and you don't have to pay all that money upfront. Recently, a contractor ended up replacing the parts that they needed and the unit is working okay now. I would recommend American Home Shield ‘cause when I call, they follow up on the call.

    The first guy before Sears came out to look at my washer because it was shaking real bad. This is a brand new house. He put in a report that the floor was weak and that the washer was unleveled. That guy didn't do anything and left. He was awful. That was Sanders Repair. We called back and complained because that guy didn't fix anything. We had Sears come out. We spoke to another one of the reps at American Home Shield, and the reps told us if the claim was different than what Sanders Repair sent, then I wouldn't have to pay additional because I had paid for that man to come out here.

    The Sears guy came in and did something in the stabilizer in the washing machine. He said my floor was right. They took the front part off. It was the weight inside the washing machine. He said sometimes that'd be worn out. Sometimes it'll be off track so you have to line it back up. He looked at the weight, looked at all the stuff, adjusted the weight again, and put it back together. The washing machine has been running decently ever since. But the washer is still leaking a little water in the front so there might have been the piece that he's supposed to been ordering. He said he was going to make his notes and send me a copy of the invoice, but I never did got it.

    Sears was great. I'd recommend every time American Home Shield is gonna send somebody out, to send somebody like the repairman from Sears. I'd also recommend American Home Shield because overall, I haven't had any mishaps from them. Sometimes it was a problem getting the techs out here whenever they did. But most of my stuff, they've been able to fix it for me.

    I still have an appliance problem and this goes back to 17 July. I put in the first claim and Frig Wiz came out. They found they could not fix it. They had to order parts. We were down for a week. When the parts came in, they came back and put it in. Things worked great. Last Saturday, the refrigerator quit again. I called American Home Shield and asked them to get Frig Wiz back out. They said they would do that. Next thing I know, I was talking to Elite 360. I talked to the CEO of that company who said, “I don't know why they assigned me this work. They need to get Frig Wiz back out because I don't do closed systems." He called American Home Shield but nothing was resolved.

    I talked to American Home Shield again. I asked them what was so hard about getting Frig Wiz out. They said Frig Wiz was not showing in their system. We played that song and dance Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. Yesterday morning, I called and said, “If you are gonna do it, tell me you're gonna do it. If you're not gonna do it, don't sit here and lie to me. You said you were gonna contact me on Tuesday within four hours. Today is Thursday and I haven't heard from anyone.” The young lady was apologetic.

    Sometime last night, an email came in that I just saw this morning. East Electronics was going to be here between 6:30 and 10:00 this morning. I got a text message from East Electronics. I responded to the text message and tried to call them back. They don't have a voicemail setup that you can leave a message. I sent them an extensive text. The bottom line is I still don't have refrigeration. It's been back and forth, and it has not been a good experience.

    I called American Home Shield and normally, they can schedule a technician or whatever person. Last time, they did not take long to find me a professional that I needed for what I needed and for the time I needed it. There was a leak in my house and American Home Shield covered covered the part that needed to be replaced but they did not cover the plumber part, which was a bit weird because we pay a lot of money monthly for insurance. They did not go over the plumber part, like the excavation because I had a leak in the front of my house. I needed to pay the part that American Home Shield would not cover, which I was very surprised with. That was a bit of disappointment for me.

    American Home Shield should see what they can cover more like in this case with the plumber. They should cover everything because it was just a job. The guy can't put enough to do a job without making a hole. How can American Home Shield not pay for the hole then pay for the parts to put inside of the hole? That aside, the company was great and the guy that came to my house was amazing. He was back and forth.

    I've seen some of the news reports with troubleshooter Diane Wilson, where people have had issues with American Home Shield in getting stuff fixed. But I've enjoyed having them and they're really good for the money. Their website is pretty user-friendly for making payments, submitting requests, getting feedback, and getting status updates. I submitted a claim and I originally thought my issue was with the water heater. AHS sent out a contractor and they were useless. They talked on the phone with the people who made the tankless water heater and they said it needed a couple of parts to replace in the water heater which would take six to eight weeks to get.

    So, they passed it back to American Home Shield to get a second opinion and that was when Proven Professionals came out. Their tech said there was nothing wrong with my tankless water heater and that the problem was the shower itself because everything else in the house had hot water but the shower. He was knowledgeable and professional. He explained things and let me watch if I wanted to learn how to do something to be handy around the house. He was changing the cartridge in the shower handle and I learned how to do that, but that apparently wasn't the issue because he replaced the cartridge twice and it didn't work. So, he's going to replace the old handle in the shower now, which will require him to cut a 20 x 20 hole behind the shower. Hopefully, that'll fix the problem and bring hot water back to the shower.

    The refrigerator stopped working so I called a technician. He came and was trying to fix it. It started working. Two days later, it happened again. It got defrosted. I had to throw out all the food from the freezer and the refrigerator. The water was all over in the kitchen and everywhere. I called for the technician again. When I came home, it started working. I didn’t want to bother, so I called and canceled the request. A couple of weeks later, it happened again. This time, when it started working again, I didn’t cancel. A guy came and didn’t know what else to do. But he was thorough. He spent a lot of time trying to figure out what the problem was. They looked everywhere and I was satisfied with them. If I have to deal with them directly without American Home Shield, I would still call them on my own. But I'm not happy with the way the issue wasn't fixed. They said that they would try to find a way to deal with that. I got appointment on Monday and somebody should come over and see what's going on.

    The refrigerator was not working. It had started to not cool. I called American Home Shield's number and talked with a customer service agent. The agent was nice, but he was difficult to understand because of his accent and he talked over me. I was trying to explain things and he seemed to be rushing the call. But it was fine. American Home Shield has a way to take over your phone by your permission and they can view the issue with you. You're able to take a smartphone, they send you a link, and they're able to look inside the appliance, in this case, the refrigerator. He wanted to see the silver information on the inside of the refrigerator. It had the model, serial number, etc. so I did do that.

    It was odd that two days later, I got a phone call from customer service saying, "We need for you to tell us the cubic capacity of the refrigerator." I asked the person, "You could have called Ashman Appliance, the same service people that came out and asked that question. You assigned this person to us to come and they came and assessed the situation. I can't answer this question because I'm at work." The other part of that situation that bothered me was that they had taken a screenshot via my phone when they asked me in the initial phone call. I said, "Why can't you use the information from the serial number, look that up, and find the cubic capacity of this refrigerator?" He said, "I didn't get a clear screenshot."

    It made me to have to take an hour when I got home from work to try to figure it out. I went online to check what the cubic capacity of my refrigerator was. It dawned on me to call Ashman Appliance. As soon as I called and talked to the gentleman who came and assessed the situation, he remembered me immediately. He recounted my address and told me my refrigerator has 22 cubic capacity. I called American Home Shield back and let them know. At that point, they were able to open up a portal and allow me, as the customer since 2005, to go in and select the new appliance from their portal. They've completed that part of the deal. They've done what they said they would do. They replaced my refrigerator with an updated, very similar but more modern refrigerator. I am, at this point, happy they have brought that in.

    I'm a customer, and all I want to do is go through American Home Shield's process and their channels. If they've got smart technology where they're able to take over my phone via a link and see something in my house, in my refrigerator, as well as take a screenshot, I shouldn't be called again and asked about this appliance. That was a major source of irritation, especially since they've sent someone who was an expert. They could have called him instead of calling me. They could have looked into the file.

    The biggest issue that we had was we had a clog in our sewer line, so it was overflowing into the house, and they had no way to expedite it. We had to turn off the water because all drains, like running the water, were overflowing our toilet. We couldn’t run any water whatsoever. We had to secure the water. First, they gave me a couple of people—one was close and out of business, one didn’t take American Home Shield, and then another one was gone for the night. American Home Shield said they would expedite it, and then came to find out there was no such thing. What we ended up doing was calling an emergency plumber out. I asked American Home Shield if they would reimburse us and they would not. So, that was the one time it didn’t work. I really wanted to provide my feedback on the water experience, but they have no way to provide customer feedback.

    AHS is great for non-emergency stuff, the stuff that you can wait for a while. We had our AC go out over Labor Day weekend when we first got the house. Because of shipping and the holidays, we were out of AC for three weeks in the middle of summer. But American Home Shield saved us money on a new air conditioner. When it works, it’s great. But those times when it doesn’t, it makes you question why you were putting money into it in the first place.

    I've been with American Home Shield for 16 years. When I renewed this last year, number one, I did not receive my contract. I repeatedly asked for my new contract. Number two, they did not let me know that the fees for repairs would be going up. I would have known that if they had sent me the contract because on the contract, it will tell you that when you need a service, you have to pay the fee. I had a specific contract before, and they said that that contract was no longer available, and I would have to go into a different kind of contract. It's an annual contract that I renew, and I pay upfront for the entire year. Usually, they charge me on the day of when my new contract would start. They did not this time. They charged me right then and it was about a month before my contract was up.

    American Home Shield sent the contract to me online, and I printed it out. But I told them I wanted a hard copy in the mail. I've requested a hard copy in the mail every single year and I've never had a problem getting it. But this time, I seem to have problems in getting the contract, of them taking fees early, and them not telling me of the fees that you have to pay when you need a service. Not only that, you're paying a bigger warranty because the warranty goes up every year. You're paying X amount of dollars for the warranty, and you're paying a fee to get something done. Where is the savings?

    I want them to be upfront and tell me why they changed something and why can't I have the same contractors I've always had. When I bought my home, it came with a year of American Home Shield. I decided to keep the contract, and renew it every year. One year, there was something shady going on. I separated one year from them then I came back because I found that the other companies were worse. The service with American Home Shield has been great. It's nice to know that I have coverage if I need it. But it's also nice when they're transparent. I haven’t had problems with getting service but it would have been nice to know why fees and other things changed.

    The companies that I've been dealing with have always been wonderful about doing things and very quick to get the service completed. They have to put up with a lot of stuff, too, but they're always very gracious and wanting to help. I would use those contractors for further business if I needed something done. I recently had a plumbing issue and I explained the problem to American Home Shield. They sent someone out who fixed it. They were very knowledgeable and gave me good information for future issues.

    I've only had one issue with them over the years regarding a dishwasher. This dishwasher kept having issues. Their contractor would come out, and they would fix it. They were pouring money into it and I was wondering why they wouldn't replace it. They had replaced the motherboard in this dishwasher and if you had to purchase it, it would be three grand. They could buy a dishwasher for 600 bucks. Finally, the dishwasher decided it was going to die. American Home Shield had somebody come out. They had to process a claim for me to get a new dishwasher. That took two and a half months for them to decide they were gonna get me a dishwasher, that they weren’t gonna look for parts somewhere. They would allow me to pick out the dishwasher then I had to wait for that. I also had to wait for the repairman. That was ridiculous.
