    The techs repaired our AC and came out when they said, and everything was good. I pay American Home Shield each year and I don't have any repairs happening. So, that money's gone but when I did need them, the part was only under $100. Using them is fine. You never know what kind of repair you're going to have, and it's covered by them. The latest claim was fine. The $100 part was covered and it only cost me $700 so far for the year.

    The air conditioner was not cooling properly and it was running all the time. Advanced Appliance Services came out and the tech said that this particular pipe wasn't welded properly or was loosening up. The other thing was that something internally was broken in the air conditioner. They ordered the part and did their job.

    We've only put in one request for service this year, and that was not very long ago. We were told that somebody would come in a couple of days. And we were contacted and said it would be another week. That didn't sit very well with us. My husband dealt with the person that came out. He said they seemed to be very knowledgeable.

    American Home Shield has too many people that cannot be understood. Both my husband and I have some hearing difficulties, but everybody has an accent that it's very difficult to follow what's being said by most of AHS' employees. Also, I'm extremely disappointed because of what we went through. We were contacted several times during January. Our renewal date was January 28th. Several times before that, we were contacted. The one time, the man said that since we would be upgrading to this new service that AHS had, we could have $100 discount. I told him that I would check with my husband and he could call back in a couple of days. It was getting towards the 28th so I called in. The person that I spoke with in AHS' sales department apparently must have been new.

    Calls and calls and calls, trying to collect the $100 that we didn't owe. They repeatedly called and wanted to have their $100. Very upsetting. And we were told many times it was being taken care of, and we’d get another call. I'm disappointed that AHS would be that low as to treat customers like that. We had been a customer for a long time.

    I have always had good luck with AHS. I have three homes listed under the policy. Recently, I had an AC problem. They got right on it for me and assigned a repair service. However, it took almost two weeks because with it being the summertime, they are booked. And there are not that many people in this area that are under that contract to do. But the company that came out was good. There was one that we had last summer that AHS had assigned to me that I won't use again.

    I had American Home Shield a long time ago and I appreciate the service and felt that this company really backs you up. It's better than sending somebody else that you don't know out - at least you have somebody that you can complain to. My most recent claim was when there was a smell when I turned the air conditioning on so I called and paid $75. The guy came out the following week and went up into the attic. He checked the vents and said it was clean.

    I had a problem with an oven, which was an electric stove, and I had a problem with a ceiling fan. I submitted a claim with AHS for both and I learned that they should be separate. But if you're having two electrical problems, why would they be separate? It doesn't make a lot of sense. But for the most part, I haven't had any complaints with American Home Shield because they seem to stand by their advertisement and philosophy that if they can't fix something, they'll replace it.

    Everything was resolved on my electrical issues but we had to go back and forth and I had to end up coming out of my pocket to finish what I wanted. I understand when they said they were going to give me the basics but my thing is, as a consumer and I have a product that go bad, I should be given the option of having the same thing or something pretty close to what I had go bad. For the ceiling fan, they only authorized the repairman X amount of dollars to put back a basic fan. The first repairman opted out and they had to send another one out here. And the problem was, he said his organization had gotten to the point where they didn't like always having to get into it with the customer because the customers stayed ahead. He said he should be able to get it, which I agree should be the fact, but American Home Shield didn't see it that way.

    I called American Home Shield twice. First, I had an AC issue. The technician found the problem and fixed the unit. For the second call, it was for plumbing. That's almost two weeks now. The contractor called me and gave me a date. Then they called me after two hours and told me they could not make it. They gave me another day but I told them I couldn't do it that day. I told them, "I'll be off Friday. Tell me the time and I'll be at home all day." They didn't respond.

    The next time that I called them to be here, they sent me a message and told me that I had to talk to American Home Shield so they can make another ticket. The company already charged the $125. They need another ticket to charge again. I called American Home Shield and told everything that happened to the rep. The rep told me, "I get it now. I took a note, and I gotta call them and see what happened. I will get back to you." But I never heard from them and it's been a week. American Home Shield always answers me and gets the people to do the job. Usually, the other people that I use always call. But these ones don't call. They just text. With the text, it was a little more difficult for me.

I like the fact that I can call them, they send an electrician out, and I only pay my deductible. The parts and labor are covered. That's a big plus in my book. We were recently having an issue. It turned out to be an electrical issue. We got an electric dryer and we thought the dryer wasn't heating to dry the clothes. But it turned out to be it was a breaker that needed replacing.

The tech came and showed me that the reason why my water wasn't coming out was because there was trash and dirt that filtered through these lines and it had clogged the line up. He showed me everything and was telling me that you couldn't clean this line out. So, that meant that the faucet wasn’t any good.

    I've been with American Home Shield for two years and the service is fine, including my most recent service. Thanks to them, they've replaced everything in the air conditioning system. My air conditioning company that comes to service has been trying to get me my new air conditioning system for four years. Since I've had AHS, they keep patching the old one up, telling me, "Hey, this has got some years," but I just wanted the air conditioning to work. So, this last session, I thought they would say, "Well, this thing is just kaput," but they didn't. But it needed a new motor. So now, we have a brand-new motor and everything's working fine. I like AHS. They're very responsive. I realized all the air conditioning people are swamped this time of year. And twice that I had air conditioning problems, AHS booked someone immediately and they've been out there the next day. I appreciate that because it's hard to live here without air conditioning.

    A couple of times, I had to cancel service but when I looked at my statement, it looked like I was charged for both of those. So then, I called American Home Shield. They said they'd have someone call me, but no one ever called me. I'm thinking that it got cancelled. I didn't remember seeing it on my credit card. So, I'm kind of confused. On my last service, I didn't realize for my pool that the pool pump is covered to be fixed but not replaced. I had had this pump serviced now about three times. I’ve been paying for it. I should have just bought a new one. They sent me some paperwork on that as to why I can’t get a new one. Now, I’m a few hundred deep into fixing it, and I have to go and buy a new one. I should have never done that. It's not so great with it so far.

    Other than that, everyone that I’ve had out for service has been great. It’s just a big company. So, it’s a little tricky. When I call, some of the people may not have English as a first language. So, sometimes, that makes it tricky. I just figured out, for the serviceman that’s coming tomorrow, how I can make an appointment online. It was really easy. So, I’m gonna do it that way from now on because calling in, sometimes there’s a bit of a language barrier. It said that I was being charged $100, and then I got another email that says there'll be no charge because the same thing had been fixed on the pool within the last 30 days.

He was also very detailed. He inspected all the components on the air outlet. And he was professional and answered all of our questions. The service was great.

    I know it's not part of American Home Shield's policy but some recommendations for ac preventive maintenance would be great. Because instead of waiting until the AC is broken, maybe we can also do something in advance to prevent the disruption. But I like that as a customer, I can have access to a larger network of providers. Also, I feel more secure to open the door of my house to someone coming in because it’s someone that's coming through American Home Shield and not a stranger. I also have a confidence that whoever is working on the repairs is going to do a good job because they are somehow under the umbrella of a larger company.

    I filed a claim to American Home Shield to get something fixed over two months ago and the contractor left because he said it has to be fixed and he would have to get with AHS. I kept waiting and calling. Finally, when I sent them a thing telling them I would not recommend them to anybody, then they sent me a new contractor. They should do better service. I waited over two months and I kept getting the runaround. I'm not happy with them.

    I had two claims with American Home Shield. I had my stove looked at and I had the garage door opener. The experience I had with technician who came for my stove was very ugly. He wouldn’t give me the opportunity to tell him exactly what was going on with my stove. He said that he couldn’t find anything wrong with the appliance so I asked for a second opinion. The second company that came out found what was wrong.

    It was the same thing on my garage door opener. The first guy that came out there said that the board on the opener was bad. Apparently, that guy quit. Another guy from that same company came out and said that my board has gone up because my garage doors were unleveled, which was not true. I asked for a second opinion and the next company that came out replaced the board. I wouldn’t be without American Home Shield. Their service went smoothly, except for the contractors. But that worked itself out. I also like the idea that you can do claims online.

    We put in a claim for our refrigerator over 3 months ago. Service came and said we needed two new control panels (GE Monogram). AHS only approved one. Refrigerator still not working properly, service came out again and said the other panel needed to be replaced. Waited another month only to hear they were unable to obtain the part. Called AHS, they said they would send out the tech to take our panel out and refurbish. Okay with us because we just want our fridge to be fixed. Fast forward another two weeks. Nothing. No work from service, no word from AHS. We called yet again. They said they would give us $400 which would be the cost to refurbish. Of course we said no to their measly check and said just refurbish the part. Still waiting....no one has come out to get the part from our fridge to refurbish, AHS said the service people need to call us, the service people say AHS needs to call them (which apparently they haven't).

    Going on month 4 without a fridge at this point. Still no appointment. No calls. We have had to call both the service people and AHS several painful times to get this situation resolved, to no avail. My conclusion at this point is that AHS will continue with this charade for as long as they want without having to replace what their contracted rate is for this appliance. Unacceptable. Absolutely 100% unacceptable. Very unhappy customer. Exactly how long do we wait before they tell us they can't fix the appliance and they will just replace it as advertised? I'll answer that, FOREVER.

    We had work on a furnace and on a fridge in two different places. It's very difficult to get through American Home Shield every single time. It's a long wait and when you get someone, it's a day before anybody calls you back to say that they assigned you to someone. Then you got to wait for that company they signed you to to call you back. Sometimes, it's a two, three-day process.

    We've experienced some contractors that have been good. The ones who worked on the HVAC have been horrible. We call American Home Shield if we have an issue with any of the contractors and they listen, but we don't see a change. They give the standard language, but I don't see anything. They call me and say, "I apologize," or, "I'm gonna give you back some of your money because you had to wait." I've been on this plan for five or more years because I was hoping that it would save me money in the long run. But a friend of mine told me about the service that they were getting from Amazon. It's cheaper and it sounds like they've had much better experiences. I'm seriously considering that one.

    I've had three different things come up since I have signed up with American Home Shield. The last one was very good but the first two were very bad. I told myself that on the third one with the pool, if it wouldn't go according to how I felt it satisfied me as the customer, I was gonna eliminate it since it was not worth me paying the $50 something a month. Recently, my pool pump went out. I added the extra coverage for that just to have it. The company we used called me right away. As soon as I hung up, within a half an hour, the guy called. He came out, answered all my questions and fixed everything. I have a job where I live on the road. I have to have people to be able to go in there when I'm not home and be able to take care of things. That was a very good experience.

    My very first attempt to use American Home Shield was over a year ago where I had a garage door problem. They said, "Give us 24 hours, we'll contact you.” I said, “I can't wait 24 hours. My car is stuck in the garage, and I can't get my door open. I gotta catch a plane." My wife also had to get to work. I told them I had a door company that could come out right then and at least get my car out. That wasn't good enough. I realized that we need to use the people that signed up with American Home Shield but there could be a clause that says to waive that a little bit in case of emergency. I ended up paying for that myself. That bill came to 350 bucks. It bothers me that there's not a little more flexibility in the program.

    The next thing that happened was my home air conditioning. My air conditioner is not that old. It was about seven years old. But when you live in Florida, you're using it all the time. In Florida, the average lifespan of an air conditioner is seven to nine years before you have to start replacing major things. What American Home Shield wanted to do was send somebody out and replace the parts. I was being told the parts were gonna take somewhere between 10 to 13 days. I couldn't have a 95-degree weather and wait for these parts to come in. I got my person who could come out right then. It ended up that I foot the bill for $6,000 because I needed a whole new air conditioning unit. American Home Shield didn't pay for it because they wanted to wait for their guys to come out, take two or three major parts totally out of there that would have cost probably $3,000 and wait 10 days for them to come back.

    For our plumbing issue, the plumber said that he needed to require some parts in order to fix that. So we were waiting and waiting. The part didn't come to our house, they didn't come to him. We called him many times. We called AHS many times. AHS told me many times, I had to talk with the technician. Because he has to report what was going on. They said they have not received the report. It was back and forth.

    We told American Home Shield that we are going to be out of the country from May to July. We need that to be repaired before we leave. They said, “We are going to try to do our best.” But he didn’t repair that. Before we left, the tech told my daughter that he wasn’t going to repair it because American Home Shield didn't approve.

    If we wanted to repair it, we had to pay $250. Because if he tried to fix it, if it's something that's going to be broken more, American Home Shield is not going to be responsible for that. So we had to pay. I said, "I am not going to pay in advance. When I come back here, I am going to call America Home Shield." When we came back on July 22nd, we called American Home Shield. I said, “I cannot wait more than four months. You have to find somebody to do that.” They found another contractor and that person went and fixed the faucet at once. We had another issue. The air conditioner was broken since Saturday and we called American Home Shield. They gave us a contractor. That technician went today. After 20 minutes, he left. I am not really satisfied with AHS.

I tried to let the company know what was going on because they were taking a long time. I tried to file a complaint with the supervisor but the lady there would never speak to the supervisor.

    I told American Home Shield about what happened and it’s noted on my contract to never send LA Appliance to my home again because I don't want to deal with them. Even if I have to wait a little longer, that would still be fine. That aside, the other contractor that American Home shield sent out for my claim was very good. They were very nice and courteous.

    I had a policy with American Home Shield a couple of years back before covid came, and I had to terminate my contract. This past year, I reactivated it and they have provided me with a new air conditioner this year. They have also sent out a plumber for me twice. The last time, the plumber came because I had a slow leak underneath my sink that I was unaware of. That leak has destroyed a quarter of my living room wood floor, all of my kitchen floor and kitchen counter.

    I like American Home Shield because you know that you're getting qualified technicians. I also find the service better now than when I had it. The response time is good and so are the technicians. This last one, I had to pay out of pocket for something that wasn't covered. But the plumber was excellent. I would recommend American Home Shield to my friends and relatives. The plan is affordable for me and so is the service fee. I've had six technicians come out and I'm pleased with the service. My house is more than 37 years old and I have things in it that’s breaking. I feel better especially now that I'm retired and on a fixed income because I have the home warranty.

    American Home Shield is great up until you have a claim. I've been dealing with them all day and I’m kinda frustrated about it. I came back from a long trip and the AC wasn't working. The contractor came out on a Friday and fixed it. It worked all weekend. Then they came back and said, “Well, we needed to fix it with the permanent part, not the temporary part.” I told them that everything was working fine. They said, “Yeah. But that's short term. We want long term.” So they went back in and replaced it Monday. But it quit working.

    I had to do a recall with American Home Shield. The contractor came back out and said that the compressor was shot and that they needed $1,385 to replace the compressor in a 26-year-old system. American Home Shield said that I could do that or they would give me $920 cash-out and I could get my own person. I asked them, “Well, what part are you paying?” They said they couldn't disclose it. It didn't make sense to me. They won't do the replacement. I told them that their advertisement said, “If it breaks down, we will replace it.” That was what they sold me on and that's why I'm paying that monthly fee of $67 a month.

    When I called their contractor back and asked, “Well, what are you replacing it with?” I wanted to find out if it’s a Bryant or something else. They said that American Home Shield was not covering that and that they were just covering the compressor only. They said most of the 1,385 is for the Freon because American Home Shield is going to be paying $10 per pound of the Freon. But it costs $225 a pound. So off the bat, it’s almost $1,000 just in Freon and then they're gonna put a new compressor in a 26-year-old system. It doesn't make sense to me.

    I had somebody come out for a second opinion. I paid them to make sure I'm not getting ripped off here. The tech came out and said it was shot. He said, “Well, I’d put a Bryant in it. But you have a 26-year-old unit. You have to replace it all.” He said it was $3,000, which I thought was reasonable because he was doing the downstairs and the furnace coils.

    We like American Home Shield. It has always been people that we like that come out. They're always helpful. They thought the garage door was fixed. So, even though we have to go to the company now, AHS told me to reach back out to them. The same company is coming out free of service next week, because the garage door is still acting up. It's a good company. I like them a lot. They've made it easy. And they said, “We'll be back out next Monday.” So, I've been happy with the service.

    The only part that sometimes is frustrating is when it’s something not covered. We had our garage door worked on last week. Apparently, because you don't always know what the issue is gonna be, you pay your $100 copay but didn't see that didn't even apply to what was wrong with the garage door. But that doesn’t happen every time. But now, we're dealing with an air issue. So, if it's not working better, I may call. Some stuff, if it’s an appliance, it's not an issue. But if it's a bigger thing, and if the air doesn't start cooling the house, I will have to read up on the fine print so I know what AHS covers.

    I read the contract and it said as far as garage doors go, it ends up being not very much. Because the thing that goes up above is not as expensive as a garage door. A way to figure out more easily what exactly are they gonna be able to help me with. Because when I call to have something looked at, I have no idea what's wrong with it. We may have an idea. But I could have called someone local who worked on garage doors and probably saved some money. When you're online and you click garage door, since I'm already logged in under me, maybe having it come up then what they cover. It’s like a reminder. And a bit more in terms where it's easier to understand.

The contractors that they connected me with were also willing to help me out to get my AC back in action a day later. I love Cool Factory so far. They were a better contractor than the first one AHS was first trying to give me. They diagnosed what the problem was and were able to fix it right away. They were on point. They communicated and called me right away. They made sure they came to my house the next day. The first contractor AHS referred me to, the guy would not pick up the phone call. He would not even call me. All he was doing was communicating by text messages.

    Water wouldn't stop running in my washing machine. So, it kept filling up the machine. The doors would bust open and flood the laundry room and other parts of the house. The process with American Home Shield took a little while because they were backed up but it wasn't horrible. It took two weeks for a technician to come. Once he came, he did a diagnosis and knew exactly what was going on. He needed to order a part and once that came in, we had to wait another couple of weeks for him to change it out. He did that pretty quickly.

    I had another claim for my AC that was not cooling. That went well. It got flushed and little maintenance things got done. Having AHS gives me peace of mind that all my appliances are covered. I've never had an issue that wasn't resolved. I'm satisfied. Everybody's been nice and they do what they need to do.

    The washer would spin the water out and the dryer wasn't drying. I told American Home Shield what was going on with my appliances and they set it up for Tate Appliance company to come out. The first time that the tech came out, the dryer was good, but the washer still had an issue after a couple of days. I called Home Shield back again, and then they sent them back out and he corrected it. So it's still working now.

    All South AC Heating and Refrigeration finally put the system on on Wednesday. They couldn't bring the new equipment. They had to take the door to the attic down and bring it back. They couldn’t put back onto one side of the trimming but they came back and put it back. They did a great job. But I'm disappointed with American Home Shield. There was another time that air conditioner was broken again. I had to pay close $500 for the freon.

    They had to replace the water tank and I had to pay $500 on it as well. They said that I needed to meet the state code. I don't know if I want to keep American Home Shield any longer. I've had it going over 17 years. They have come three times, twice for the air conditioning unit. They couldn’t figure out what was wrong with the air. It was blowing but not cooling. They said they couldn't fix anything they couldn't see. That was why I called for a recall from American Home Shield and they brought All South AC Heating and Refrigeration. The heat was hitting over 100 degrees a day. This been running probably early June and I just got it fixed this week. That's a long time in between. I wouldn't recommend American Home Shield because it took me three months in the heat. I was disappointed. I could have saved enough money to replace my thing without having to call them and without having to wait for so long. You're gonna die waiting for them to come and fix an issue.

    The very first claim that we did was with our pool. The guy said that it wasn't covered, but it should be and American Home Shield ended up covering it. Recently, my air conditioner stopped blowing cold air, and we had a service assigned to us at first, but then that company couldn't come out quickly enough. We asked if we could move it and American Home Shield moved it to a different company, which was great. That company came out, and we thought the problem was fixed. I received a survey and gave them 5 stars, then later in the day, my air conditioner stopped working again.

    We had to call them back, and they couldn't come back out for a few days. That was a bummer because we were out of air conditioning for five days in Las Vegas in the middle of summer, but that wasn't really to do with American Home Shield. It was more with the company. A few weeks prior, we had the same problem with one other air conditioner, because we have two units, and that went perfect. The people came out, fixed it, left, and everything was good. Some stuff, I understand, is not as urgent as others, but sometimes, it seems like it takes a long time to get people out. I realize the vendors that American Home Shield assigns have other customers, but for an air conditioning issue, you gotta fix that right away, especially if it's in the middle of summer.

    It was efficient as far as getting my order placed, but it's all automated, which some people prefer that more than others. But it took close to two weeks before I was able to get a technician out here. We were fortunate in the sense that the air conditioner was still functioning, but there was a clog in the water drainage hose that was not right and caused some small issues. But if the air conditioner broke, we would have been sitting for almost two weeks with no air. American Home Shield was four days later than normal than what was normally scheduled was because they had some technician shortage. But once the guy came out, he was very good.

    I received a text message yesterday from AHS saying that they tried to run my debit card for this month's payment and that it wouldn't go through because my card on file was no longer good. So, once a year, it seems like the debit card has to be replaced. That's the problem they ran into for renewing. I called them last night and I was on hold for 40 minutes but nobody ever answered. It's hard to get ahold of a live person when you call AHS.

    Our central air conditioner wouldn't cool. AHS didn't have an app for the phone, so I had to get on the website. It was easy to get on it, but once you submitted your claim, it was like it went into a big black tunnel. There was very little to no communication. For instance, the website didn't give me a status if the claim was opened or assigned or pending review. At first it said it was open, then it said it was assigned to a vendor, and it was closed the next day.

    So I had to call and I got somebody who couldn't speak English. I had a really hard time understanding an accent and when I was telling them that the website said my claim was closed, they said it wasn't. When we got that straightened out, they sent in a text message and an email that said my claim was assigned to Foxcroft and that if I didn't hear from them within 24 hours, I should call them. So when I didn't hear from them, I had to call and left a message. But I didn't hear back from them for 24 hours. I called them again, left another message, and they finally called back. They said they were not going to be able to get here for these many days and they were difficult from the get-go. So it was just a back and forth until I got their tech here.

    Their guy said I was out of Freon and that he was going to turn the thing back in but AHS wouldn't get back with me. He said that if he turned it in that day, it was going to be four months before the whole thing got resolved. We asked him about the Home Shield company and he was telling us that if it was him, he wouldn't pay for the service. He gave us a really bad vibe. This Foxcroft company also went to my mom's house and they told her the same thing. So, we thought that AHS was a scam and I called them to cancel. But they bounced me right over to the retention group. The lady asked what could she do to keep me as a customer and again I was talking to somebody who had poor English so it was difficult for me.

    She told me that she would send someone else out here for a second opinion. But I told her that those people were not coming back to my house because I didn't trust them and I was not paying a $125 call out fee. I already paid that and after that Foxcroft company went to the home warranty people, they came back and said the issues were preexisting conditions. So, I asked the retention lady to explain to me what part of any claim was not going to be a preexisting condition. My house is 20 years old, so if I submit a claim that my refrigerator that doesn't work, they're going to send a contractor out here and every single time he's going to say it's a preexisting condition because it's old. I haggled with them and she admitted that if an appliance is old, the issue is preexisting. So asked her what was the point of me continuing to keep my plan with American Home Shield.

    She then told me that they could send someone out and they wouldn't charge me the $125 unless that contractor said the same thing. At that point, I was already $500 in with AHS but I decided to go with that. She also told told me that she had had so many customer calls about Foxcroft and that they were no longer an approved contractor with Home Shield. But within 15 minutes of hanging up with her, I got back online to see if she had created my ticket to send somebody else out and she did. But it still went to Foxcroft. I had to call again, got a different person, and told him that I did not want those people in my house. I also told him that the lady I talked to before said they were a non-approved vendor anymore but he said that was not true. So she lied to me.

    Then, my claim was assigned to a new contractor by the name of Frog Pro. They got back with me within 24 hours and were at my house within two days. They told me it wasn't a preexisting condition, that the evaporator coil there had a leak which was why it lost all of the Freon. They said they were going to go back to the Home Shield people and tell them what they found. They told me that it could either be fixed or it could be replaced because of its age. These people took care of me. They also went right over to my mom's house, who was 80 and is a little bit disabled, and they took care of her, too. They explained it all to her and they were wonderful. After that, American Home Shield confirmed that we could have our units repaired for this much or they'd replace them for this much. We decided which way we were going to go and got Frog Pro on the phone with us. They are going to be at our house tomorrow and my mom's on Monday.

He thought that it might trip again, and that they would call for an electrician. When the electrician came out two days later, he hit that same button again, came on. Before he could leave, it was back off. I just called them back this time because it's not on again. And he would answer once I called them back. He called me to let me know he was there. I talked with him while he was talking to my son. But soon as he left the house, he never returned the call again.

    Our air conditioner was not running. It was shutting off and then starting back up again. I went to American Home Shield's website to make a claim and that was really easy to get around. It's a lot easier doing the website than it is by phone. A few minutes after I put my request in, I received a message that White Sands was going to be contacting me. As I was reading that message, White Sands called me.

    The technician was good and thorough. He showed my husband what he was doing wrong with putting the vinegar down the hose. He also showed what the problem was. The air conditioner was shutting off and then coming back on was due to the fact that the overflow was too high and water was overflowing and not running out right. He repaired that for us. Everything is operating beautifully now and we have air. Living in Florida, you have to have air. We've had American Home Shield forever. The biggest complaint I have is when you have to call and you get put on hold forever. That's the only downfall.

    With AHS, I have the assurance that I can make a phone call and get some of the service repairs that I need done to my house. And those are done, most of the time, in a timely manner. The only time it wasn't was when I had my air conditioner go out and it took so long for me to get good service. It took over a week just to get a service call and get anything updated for me to get a company to come. But other than that, the service has been great. I recently had a claim for an appliance issue and the tech who came out was really good. American Home Shield's customer service reps have been very good, too. The last time I called them was when the air conditioner person did not come and I ended up getting someone to assist me. I wanted my credit back and the rep assured me that within 5 to 10 business days my card would be credited. And that was done.

    I'm pleased with American Home Shield. My AC has been out for about two weeks now in one of my rental properties. I had somebody check it out for me as well, and they found out it had power. So, when the American Home Shield electrician came out today, he said, "There was power, but the compressor is bad. And that's what was kicking the breaker on the AC unit." He wrote his report that I do have power, and the compressor's gone out. In the meantime, I went on and got a unit put in. I'm in Texas, and it's been over 100 for almost 40 days now. What I would like to do as a resolution is whatever they were gonna pay for that compressor, I would like to be reimbursed for it.

    When the AC guy came out last week, he should have known that the compressor was out when he came out versus saying the breaker was just bad and turned around and left. He should have known that when he came out the first time. That delayed it even more because he came out on the 25th, and today is August the 3rd. By the time the correspondents get back to AHS and they dispatch another AC person out, it would have been this weekend or next week. When he came out and that breaker was tripping, he should have disconnected it and then cut it to see if it had power.

    He could have run a test on the compressor and would have known the compressor was out. He left and didn't do that, and that's causing American Home Shield more money because they already had sent an electrician out. If he had gone on and determined that while he was there, the electrician wouldn't even have to come out. As far as American Home Shield, they are just going by what information they receive. Maybe if they had received some different information, they would have acted differently. So far, AHS had taken care of me.

    I had a washing machine last year. Before that, I had the stovetop. It was leaking gas and I had to pay for some of it, but American Home Shield paid for the top. It was corroded. They had to put in copper. I did the ice maker once, but I decided not to do that again because it didn't hold up. The roof was replaced. Recently, I didn't have hot water. The tech came in, checked the pilot, and that wasn't it. But he cleaned out some kind of burner assembly. And if that didn't work, they would have to replace the whole thing, because I can't see through it. He did it quickly. Tried lighting it, but it didn't hold, and he had to come back. He came back within two days, so I was glad. I should have asked for something closer. I had to wait four or five days for hot water, and they came on a Tuesday, and came back on Thursday. So, I appreciated that. So far, it has been holding up. Maybe it just needed cleaning. That was good. Everything got handled.

    I don’t like American Home Shield because they always try to patch stuff instead of just fixing it. I’ve had it for five years and every time something goes on my unit, they want a patch. This last time around, they wanted to repair a compressor instead of replacing it. It was gonna cost me $1,600 in Freon. I said, “Forget it. I'll just go ahead and buy a new unit.”

    The contractors that come out suck as well. They say they fix stuff. But when you call them back, it's not fixed. Like my garbage disposal. They fixed it twice. Replaced it. I didn't know what they were doing but it's still not working. It works for a little while, and the next thing I know, I gotta call them again. For the garage door, the guy came out and fixed it. Now I'm having a hard time trying to reprogram the garage door opener. I don't know what's going on with that.

    Called to request service for a leaking water line in my basement on 7/26/2022 with no response. Have called customer care three times now and was told on the last call there is no available contractor to perform the service I need. If they don't have contractors to perform services, why are they taking my monthly payment every month? Why did they deduct the $100 copay from my account? Seems like the only thing they are capable of is draining money out of working people's bank account.

    I like American Home Shield's service. I like that AHS addresses my problems. Also, they sent out some good people. The first time, I called about my washer and dryer. I didn't know they didn't do both at the same time, but they took both requests at the same time. I didn't like the fact that they did all that work and found out it wasn't good because they spent some money on my washing machine. So I got all these new parts here, and the tech had to trash the washing machine because he said he couldn’t do anything with it. I thought maybe he would check the whole thing out, or he could have before ordering all of that.

    Other than that, the first company was good. They came, put the little piece in my dryer. Dryer working good. I ended up getting a new washing machine. I already got the machine and I sent them a copy of the bill. They're not gonna give it all back to me. But they're supposed to give me so much back to cover what I paid. That's what I'm waiting on.

    The recent electrical claim was supposed to have been toward the ceiling fan. It wasn't working. The contractor came out and the tech said the motor was gone in it. So, they ended up putting another motor in it and another cap over it, but it was smaller than the one that was up there. At one point, he told me that someone would come out and patch it up. But I just bought one that fit.

    I was satisfied only because when they first came out, they tried to do more than one thing. I also had a kitchen light issue. They asked about it. And I told them I didn't call about that. But if it was something they could do about it, fine. He caught himself somewhat fixing the light, but he told me the light was gone. He told me the motor was gone in the fans, and he ordered another motor. But he had to close the case first. Something he said he had to do and wait for American Home Shield to get back with him before he could address the ceiling fan and the motor. They got back with me and came back out. The guy gave the indication if I wanted to have both done, he would do it for me. But one of them I would have to pay for. But I'm all set now.

    Hero’s Plumbing did do a really good job with the garbage disposal. The gentleman who was the service guy was great. It was a very good experience. We've had American Home Shield policies before as a family. My husband and I have had it. My mom had it. But she just bought a new home, so she has a new policy again.

    The issues that we had run into with American Home Shield is that, for instance, my husband and I had a plan, and then we had an active leak in our basement. It was a Friday and we couldn't get anybody through Home Shield to come out until the following Tuesday. We told them, “We have a active leak. We need somebody out here, like, in the next two hours.” That was just ridiculous. We ended up having to go with somebody and paying out of pocket. It wouldn't work to use Home Shield because of the time lapse. Another thing we ran into was that some of the local companies won't work with Home Shield because they have such a hard time getting paid. When you find a contractor you like and then find out that they don't work with Home Shield, it's a bummer.

    There was a leak and it was dripping from the top floor to the lower floor. It took the plumber about two days to come out but he was great. He went in there, diagnosed the problem and recommended the solution. However, American Home Shield's coverages have declined from when we first started using them to what they are now. A lot of the coverage goes up to a certain point, then we're stuck with paying the rest of the repair. On the plumbing coverage, if a pipe bursts, that's supposed to be covered. But the plumber said, "You have an old pipe, so we got to do all this extra repair." American Home Shield covered just the replacement cost of the piece of pipe and labor. But the additional work was out of pocket and that usually runs a couple hundred.

    We've also had that happen with an air conditioning unit. One air conditioner was over 3,000 and another one was over 5,000 where we just had to replace the whole system because their coverage says they'll repair the AC, but in reality, they don't. They'll just go up to a certain point. It's one those fine print details but that's not specified upfront.

    I put in the claim to American Home Shield and initially, the company that they sent responded right away that day saying they would come out. But they never showed up. We waited a long time and we called the company back and they said that they were waiting on some parts to be ordered. But they never told us that. So, we waited another two weeks but we never heard from them. We kept calling them. We got ahold of American Home Shield and told them that the company was not answering our call. AHS got ahold of them and they said they would be out on Wednesday. Wednesday came and went and they didn't show so, we called American Home Shield back and they got ahold of the company again. They finally came out and replaced some parts that were not the parts that we needed. So, they did not fix the problem. We tried calling them back but couldn't get ahold of them.

    We talked to American Home Shield and they said that we would have to either have them come back out or pay another $100 to have a different repair person come out and that they would eventually reimburse us for the first one if they didn't fix it. It’s a frustrating policy that they have. The repair has been a long ongoing process. But we finally got Sears. They ordered parts and had them shipped directly to our house and we had to wait for all the parts to come in. So, that was another two weeks. The initial order that we put in to fix our stove was probably the end of May and we just got it fixed last week.

Also, if you request a service, they should give you more months of warranty. They only give you one month. One day, I had to pay like double the service because they gave me one month of warranty.

I'd rather pay the $60 or $75 every month and know that everything's covered. It's just $100 to call anybody out. We've had several things that’s gone down that costs a lot, and yet they covered it.

    I put it in a claim for the hot water heater and for a pipe leak with American Home Shield. You can do more than one claim if it's the same category and you only have to pay that one service fee. The tech I had was extremely difficult to deal with. He would say he would be here at one time then he wouldn't notify us ahead of time that he wouldn't be coming. We would sit around all day waiting for him then he would text us mid-afternoon and say, “Sorry, I didn't come. I'll be there at this time.” That was probably a week or two of runaround with him. When he came out, I told him I only wanted what American Home Shield was going to cover. We had a filtration system on. He said American Home Shield didn't cover to get that replaced so I told him that I didn't have the extra money to put on it.

    He called me back later that afternoon after his initial visit and he told me that he was going to cover that out of pocket at his own expense. I told him he didn't have to but he insisted on doing it. We allowed him to do it because he told us, “I'm the owner of the company. You don't have to worry about it. I'll take care of it.” With that being said, I had to text him and communicate with him that way because it was easier for me with my children. Sometimes it was harder for me to answer the phone.

    With that experience, I was holding a general conversation with him. But he got a little inappropriate, which made me uncomfortable so we just refused. We told American Home Shield we didn't want him back here because of how inappropriate he was and how uncomfortable it made me. He pointed out on his initial visit that I was attractive and that I wasn't wearing a bra. This is my home. If I don't want to wear a bra, I don't have to. But being a professional and coming to do work inside of my home, he should never have pointed that out. I immediately called my husband. The Friday that he was supposed to come out and fix the shower leak, I wasn't gonna be able to have my husband home because he's a truck driver. My father-in-law had my two youngest children, so he couldn't come. I ended up cancelling the service because I didn't want to be here by myself with him coming over.

    The tech was able to fix the hot water heater and put the filter housing. But he never finished our shower leak issue. The only thing that he did on the shower was he cut a hole in my ceiling. He never come back, which in a way was because I cancelled on him coming back. I held him up from fixing the shower. But then again, it was his fault because he shouldn't have acted inappropriately. He then would have been able to finish the job.

    My experience with American Home Shield had its ups and downs. We've had a few people that have called us and we've tried to explain the whole situation to them. They were just very rude to work with. I had a guy yesterday that called me about the filtration system and I tried to explain to him he's the fifth different person that we talked to about the same situation. He ended up hanging up on me. That's not really good customer service. We did have some people who have been very understanding and who wanted to help us.

    On the whole, my husband and I have the best plan and we feel like we don't matter to American Home Shield. We got told that we were not telling the truth about there being a hole in our ceiling from the plumber. I said, “We can gladly email you pictures or email you my discussion with this dude to show you how inappropriate he as being.” We have a video of the shower leaking. The rep was just very ugly to my husband and hung up on him. Our shower leak has now gotten worse. It used to be just the drain leaking, now it's so bad to where it's ruining our floor. Water is going under our floor in our shower and that’s creating a whole other problem for us. And that's not fair to us. We pay $80 a month to get this stuff taken care of. We chose to do American Home Shield and we are getting the runaround. American Home Shield really isn't wanting to help us fix the problem, which is extremely irritating.

    I was out of town and my son emailed me and told me that the AC wouldn’t turn on. I did a claim to American Home Shield. When I got back home, they had fixed it but it was making a weird noise. The guy went upstairs and he said that a fan in there was messed up. He fixed that, too. Ever since then, it’s been great. I dealt with the guy the second time. My son dealt with him the first time.

    The AC unit was turning on, but it wasn’t blowing anything out through the vents. I had a technician from another company already come over to diagnose the problem. So that way, whoever American Home Shield sent out, they would already have an idea of what was going on. American Home Shield sent Amazing Comfort and they found out that it wasn’t the blower motor, as the original company had said, but rather it was the squirrel cage bolt that came loose and fell down. So it was a quick fix. The tech took about 20 minutes. He was great. He was very punctual, and courteous. He gave me a heads-up call when he was about 10 minutes away from the house, which helped me out. I didn’t have to ask him to put on the booties before walking through the house, he just automatically did that. He was very professional, and efficient.

    I set up a contract with American Home Shield in May and paid for a whole year of service. That would give me a discount if I paid for the whole year. I used them for a claim for the first time and the gentleman that came had a long conversation with my father then left a copy of the diagnosis he had. On the diagnosis, the issue had nothing about hail damage or anything weather-related. When I called to get the diagnosis from American Home Shield, they said that the technician said that it was due to hail damage. We haven't had a hailstorm in over five years. But the home warranty would not listen to me and they were not believing what I was saying. I asked them to call the gentleman and they said they did and they confirmed that it was hail damage. When I called the company, Service Pro, they denied saying that. But they had sent pictures and American Home Shield made their diagnosis based on those.

    American Home Shield closed that ticket and denied the claim. The agents were just not willing to work with me until I spoke to someone in retention named Jose. He was the one that set up a second opinion. The supervisor, Ryan, said, "We're going to deny it anyway if we give you a second opinion.'" He said that he will agree to give me back my full refund along with the service fee. I have yet to hear back from them.

    A second technician from another company come out yesterday. He didn't leave any paperwork. He said that there were other things wrong with the unit where basically the HVAC needed to be replaced. American Home Shield said it was hail damage again, denied it, and closed the ticket. My son and I have been sitting in the heat going on two weeks now.

    The washing machine stopped draining. I filed a claim with American Home Shield. They assigned a contractor, CRJ Enterprises. They performed an inspection on the washing machine. They said it could be repaired potentially, but it would be a very short-term repair. Most of the components internally were rusted out, so it needed a transmission and a water pump. They said pretty much that whenever they put a new transmission in it, it would provide too much torque, and it would just strip the washing machine out. So, his opinion was that it just needed to be replaced. That was what he referred to American Home Shield.

    As part of the process, American Home Shield sent me an email after CRJ had sent in their recommendations. I had the option of either going through their website and they would have shipped a washing machine to me, or I could just wait a couple of days and they could send me a gift card. At that time, I used the gift card along with my own money to purchase a new machine.

    I would potentially recommend AHS to a friend because there is a cost-saving to that. However, in my region, they don't have a whole lot of contractors that are in their service that take them as a customer. For, heating and cooling, the one service that they have is not a very reputable company. They came out, serviced my air conditioner and then 33 days after they serviced it, I had to have another company come out and service it again through American Home Shield. So, the thing that's important about 33 days is you have only 30 days of warranty after that company leaves to call in a complaint. The only other thing that I would add about American Home Shield is it gets a little bit frustrating as they outsource their call center. Sometimes there are difficulties understanding who you're talking to. There may be difficulties in them completely understanding your situation. But overall, they save you money in the long run.

    I've had some good experiences and bad experiences. I have a kitchen faucet that was supposed to be fixed back in May and I'm still waiting on the part because it's not working again. The tech came out and didn't have the right part. The tech said he would call his supplier to get the part. I'm still waiting for the parts and it has been a week. I could have just called Kohler and got them sent. But Sergio doesn't want to use their parts because he said he wants to use his own part. But he replaced the o-rings on the kitchen faucet with the o-rings that Kohler sent me. And he came out and replaced the o-ring on the sprayer, which was good and that worked. However, the kitchen faucet went out in May, when it started leaking in May, and it started leaking again when I came home and the technician had to come out in July. I had to have a new service request. So, there should be more than two months between when something breaks and when it breaks again.

    My washer wasn't going through a complete cycle. It would get as far as the rinse spin cycle, and then it would just start over again. Abella came out and I was very pleased with the service that they supplied. They said a lot of times, the issue is caused when the shock system under the tub wears out, and then the wobbling causes the machine to try to trigger itself to restart. So the tech replaced the shocks. It took away all the little shimmy and shake.

    After a couple of loads, the problem came back again so I let American Home Shield know about that. They said that they would send somebody else out. But the same gentleman came back and he said he thought that it could have been a control panel problem. He replaced it and told me at that point, “I'm still getting the problem and I'm not sure where to go from here.” He said he would call American Home and let them know what happened. So I heard from American Home by email, saying that they were going to send another technician out for a second opinion, which happened yesterday. Everything is taken care of.

    My refrigerator went out one time and it was over three months before I got another one. Parts never did come in. When they did come in, I had already bought a refrigerator and told them "Just do what you have to do to close this out on that case or whatever." I had to go and buy a refrigerator during the summertime months. I have children, and I can't be without a refrigerator. Also, technicians have been out six times to fix my washing machine for the same thing. One time American Home Shield paid over $300 for repairs, which was ridiculous. Then somebody came back out for the same thing. The machine won't wring out the clothes. The people they’re sending out are piecing it together like band-aiding it.

    AHS should improve on getting their parts a little bit quicker and where they get their parts from so that they could service their customers. I understand we have a pandemic going on and parts are delayed, but they don't get back to you. They don't say anything. They just leave you hanging. They don't call you back and say, "We're still waiting on the part. We haven't forgot you." Nobody is responding back to the customers that they're still working on it. It's just like you got to call them. AHS can improve on its customer service and let the customer know they still have not received the part or if they don't receive parts at a certain amount of time, then they need to go to another step to satisfy the customer. It's not hard to take our money, but it is sure hard to get our things fixed at times.

    I had a situation with a plumber who came out when there was a TOTO toilet to fix and they did it immediately. They did it well, too. But they had it as a closed out deal and yet, it was not. They did not put it in the record that they still had to to give me a kitchen faucet and a bathroom faucet, and install them. And it had been since the beginning of April that the plumber had not turned the report in. Every time I called or texted them, they'd say they'd look into that. But they didn't take my calls or respond to anything. I called American Home Shield at least 15 to 20 times and they kept telling me that they'd expedite it and send it to the contractor division. Also, when I couldn't find the number for the retention department, I couldn't get anyone to give it to me when I called in. I told them to have them call me and there was no call. I had to go buy my faucets myself and hire my own plumber to go out and do it.

    Aside from that, I bought a policy for the garage doors and paid a lot for it. I filed a claim when the garage doors were not opening because the radio waves that they open up on were opening when they weren’t supposed to open. The contractor said they were picking up somebody else's and that that was not covered. But the problem was with the motors and they are covered. I kept calling AHS and it went nowhere. I had tenants moving in so I gave up and I paid $1,000 for three new motors for my garage.

    Besides that, there has been a lot of other things that have been excellent with AHS and I've been exceptionally happy with them. If they couldn't fix something, they were going to replace it. In fact, they've replaced air conditioning units and refrigerators. I also had an appliance issue where Simon Appliance came out and did a great job.

And we're really no further along now than we were almost a month ago when I put the work order in for the air conditioner. We have seven in our house, so it's not like it's end-all, be-all. But it’s in our garage and we use our garage for more than just cars. It's 105 degrees here for the last 45 days, so it gets a little warm in there.

    When I first called, it was July 6th and somebody was out within two days. But the tech said he'd be here between 2 o'clock and 5 o'clock, and he showed up about 7 o'clock. Then, he didn't do anything and said he didn't have time to work on it because it was too late. This was on a Thursday evening and the tech said that he would be here first thing Saturday morning if that was okay with me. When I asked what would be first thing, he said it would be between 7:00 and 8:00. So, I said that was fine. But Saturday morning came and went. I called and left messages and emails for the next week but nobody would return my call. I called American Home Shield and they just said they'd let me know.

    Three weeks went by and finally, for the eighth time, I told AHS that I needed them to find me a different company to work on this. So, they found another company, then somebody came out and was working on it. The guy knew what he was talking about. He said that we need a part and now we're waiting on the part.

    Filing claims to American Home Shield has been terrible. I submitted a claim three times before they finally got it right, and it took over a month to get somebody out here. He did a fantastic job. He said that there was a pinhole leak in my Freon line. He said he sealed it up with the dye he put in it, but he said that if we have any problems within 90 days, we can call the company back and they'll come back out for no additional charge.

    Some rats chew through my AC wire on the outside of the house but they did it in such a fashion that it really destroyed all the wires and the AC wouldn't turn back on again. So I called American Home Shield and paid the 75 bucks. I know that they take a little bit of time to reach out to the techs, so a minute later, I gave the contractor, Crispy Air, a call and told them the ticket number through American Home Shield. Then they started the process and a couple of days later, the tech came out first thing in the morning. Two hours later, he rewired it all and the AC was back up.

    I've also called AHS before and it seemed like there are a lot of exclusions. For example, with this AC claim, I had to pay out of pocket since AHS wouldn't cover it. It’s considered force majeure. Then the last time I needed techs to come out, it took two weeks before they came and did some inspection. After that, I needed to have a float switch changed, and it was considered maintenance. So I've called three times and only one time did AHS cover anything.

    We specifically bought extra coverage because we had a hot tub. The last claim that we had was when our hot tub had a leak. But when we got down to it, the specifics said that the only spas that were covered were in-ground spas and not above-ground spas. So the claim was denied. The verbiage was a little misleading. But we did have some appliances that didn't work that American Home Shield replaced for us. So that was nice. In general, the service is good. But it depends on the providers. It's hard to find people to work on stuff these days. So sometimes it takes a little bit longer for people to respond than others. When I can do the service request online, it's nice. But if I have to call, it takes longer because I have to hold for about 20 to 30 minutes.

    Anybody who’s come out from American Home Shield has been great. Nobody has been bad or gave us any bad advice or did bad work. The people are very nice and knowledgeable about what they do in the department. If they can't do it, at least they're honest about what they can do and refer us to somebody else in the company that can do it. So they're very helpful. The last recent company that came did our toilet and the floor. The toilet was leaking water, so they had to seal it and put in the floorboards. AHS has someone come out and service our pool every year as well, and they turn it on and off. Overall, American Home Shield is a good company, and they save us money. If we regularly call somebody else, it'll be twice or three times the amount of money.

    American Home Shield works with foreign people versus English-speaking people. When I'm asking for a certain thing, like when I asked them about fixing the bathroom, I just have to explain myself a couple of times. It’s just me having a hard time understanding them. Other than that, their customer service is good. Their personnel are okay. Also, the tech did good. He was nice and professional. He came in, did what he wanted to do. He had to put a hole in the wall downstairs in the floor to get to the toilet, so they have people coming out tomorrow to fix the wall. They put an order in, said it was them who did it. They called me yesterday to schedule for it tomorrow to go ahead and fix it.

    I needed to use American Home Shield on two occasions with horrible responses. My water heater went out 6 months ago and AHS never sent anyone to fix it despite frequent calls to them. I had to pay to have the water heater fixed. Last week my air conditioner went out in 100 degree heat. Again, AHS said they would have the company they use call me. No one ever called. I called the company assigned to my case and no one ever answered. I subsequently found out the company I was to use had filed bankruptcy!! I had to pay $8000 for a new air conditioner. I am so furious with this company and I cancelled them immediately. I paid $46+ per month for absolutely NO SERVICE.

    In the beginning, I started to have some issues with the tech diagnosing the issue right. He didn’t take his time to find out what the issue was. He told me that the issue was fixed, but then the issue really wasn’t fixed. I called American Home Shield and told them that I didn’t feel like the guy was doing a thorough job. They called him and then somebody else came back out. The second person was great. I like the peace of mind of getting AHS to fix any issues that may arise with my appliances.

    I recently purchased a property for short-term rentals. I decided to purchase a home warranty so that I am covering in case anything goes wrong. I experienced my first issue a few weeks after purchasing the warranty. My HVAC unit was not cooling off the house. It was very difficult to reach somebody to, and take a look at the unit. You cannot make a claim or do anything before paying the service free. Eventually a servicing company contacted but was unable to take a look at the unit for a few days as it was a holiday weekend. I contacted 3 other AC companies who took a look at the unit and told me that the unit needs to be replaced. Eventually, when the service people came to look at the unit, they washed down the unit, added some cooling liquid, and told me that the unit is working despite it being unable to cool off the house. Needless to say, I had to replace the unit on my own (as it was "working" and were unwilling to stand behind their product).

    A few weeks later, I decided to try once more. I had a few small items related to my pool that were not functioning, (water jets, pool heater cover, etc.). I decided to make a second claim. Despite paying additional money for full pool coverage, it turns out for some reason or another they found ways not to cover this claim either. I have spent literally hours on the phone, trying to get reimbursed for the additional insurance of purchased, (I am still within the window of cancellation). I spoken to multiple departments. I keep getting the runaround. They make it extremely difficult to cancel anything or get any sort of reimbursement. As of today, things are still not resolved. Please do yourself a favor and do not get involved. He will save yourself a lot of money, time, and stress.

    My water heater went out and the the plumber who came had to replace it. He was very professional, and so far, so good. We've got hot water. I like American Home Shield because it gives me an option. I just went online, sent a request in, and within minutes I got the information of who was gonna come out. I also love the fact that we get a picture of the person who’s coming.

    It was fairly easy to do the claim for the AC unit. I also sent in a claim when I had an issue with the microwave. American Home Shield sent out a technician to diagnose the microwave. He found out there was a issue with the microwave, but he said, “Hey, we don't fix microwaves.” So they put another claim in for a different contractor and they replaced the microwave. So that was good. But I had an issue with the garage claim. American Home Shield doesn't cover much for the garage. So that was a bust of paying a deductible for that. That's probably due to the policy I have because I heard if you have a super different policy, then everything like a garage is pretty much covered.

    We're in the process of selling our home and we needed to get our AC serviced as part of the contingency. I contacted American Home Shield and said, "Hey. I just need a basic AC service." They sent out Grace Heating & Air and the tech added three pounds of Freon. He said, "Okay. Your AC is fine. Everything's good to go.”

    Three days later, the AC unit goes out. So we called American Home Shield and we got a hold of Grace. They sent the same guy out and he ran some tests. He said, "Yeah. You got a bad breaker switch." He decided to run a couple of more tests. And throughout the course of the testing that he ran, he ended up shorting out the compressor. He claimed to American Home Shield that that was a power surge when in fact, it was actually due to him jumping one circuit to another in the electrical box and doing electrician work that he's not certified to do. We've been dealing with it since July the 2nd and it's still yet to be rectified. We've been without air conditioning for almost a month now.

    We've escalated the problem higher than the escalation department and we've gotten a hold of the Vice President of Sales for Frontdoor, the parent company of American Home Shield. She has gotten us in contact with the Executive VP of Customer Relations to get the matter fixed. We had to have another electrician tell us that there's nothing wrong with our breaker box. We also had to have another AC company come to say, "Your compressor is blown. We have to order one." We found out yesterday that the compressor finally got to the vendor and they've got it scheduled to be installed this Friday.

    When we spoke to somebody in the escalation department when the issue first happened, there was nobody that could make a decision. They would have to escalate it to another team, which would be another two or three days. It was almost next to impossible for us to get ahold of the right person. So we had to go pretty high up the food chain in order to make that happen. In an emergency situation, which we were in, somebody should be available to make a temporary approval or concession to be able to make it right based on the circumstances. I was playing this massive waiting game. Once we got hold of the Executive VP of Customer Relations, she was able to approve to reimburse us for an additional window unit that we had to purchase and provide us some kind of remedy rather than just waiting for a phone call. Other than that, AHS has always been prompt and responsive.
