American Home Shield has always been great. I love it. My bathroom faucet was leaking out the top. Then, my garbage disposal and my two toilets, which I all had checked over a year ago, weren't flushing right. The contractor replaced the two toilets as well as the water heater which was dripping out of the faucet. We bought an older house and the water heater was 27 years old. Water heaters don't last but five to 10 years so, it was just a matter of time. Everything in the house was a fixer upper so a lot of this stuff is going to end up failing and one by one, it does. So, AHS has been great as far as having it knowing that it's just given time that these things are gonna fall apart.

The experience was wonderful. The guy who came out was sweet. He went above and beyond, and we loved him. He was so patient with us. I didn’t know I had the key and he needed the key. I was at my grandparents’ house, and it took me 10 minutes to get home. He could have just said he'd come back later, but he didn’t. He waited and did all of the locks.

I did the claim online with American Home Shield and everything went smoothly through that whole process. The technician was wonderful. He was very descriptive and told me everything. He had great customer service. He communicated well with me, let me know, showed me how everything was and explained how to get it set up. It was 100% good.

We've had to use American Home Shield a few times, and it's been fine. On our last service however, the repairman took a week to get to us and we’re on 100-degree weather in Florida. I called American Home Shield and see if they could get somebody out faster. I had said something to someone that I had medical conditions and couldn't handle heat very well. They tried to expedite the ticket but nobody could pick it up faster than that Thursday. We ended up getting a few tower fans put through the house because we were desperate.
The repairman tried to get me in earlier and said that the best he could do was the day that he said he had to come out. When he came, it took 30 minutes for him to figure out what was down with our AC, and he fixed it. This is the second time we've used American Home Shield for our AC. For the first time we had our AC worked on, it was the complete opposite where our AC wouldn't shut off. It was constantly running cold, and it was freezing us out in the house. American Home Shield has saved us money. The only thing we've had to pay is for the service call fee which is a little much, 75 bucks.

AHS is a great asset to have as a homeowner. Being from out of town, not knowing people that fix things, it's easier for me to just call American Home Shield to get something fixed if something breaks. The process was good with my most recent claim. I called and the person set up the appointment to come, then they came on the day that they said they were gonna come, and they fixed the problem.

I had a small issue with American Home Shield at one time. I had a claim done but the part wasn’t being made anymore. So, they quickly corrected the issue and was able to replace it. And they have had gotten stuff fixed also. Intertech Maintenance, the contractor for the dryer, was good. They almost had to rebuild it but eventually, they figured out that it had some more problems and they finally replaced it after several times of trying to fix it. I have all my appliances and electronics covered and AHS came through every time I had an issue, which was one of the things why I consistently stayed with them.

The techs that AHS sent came out to fix the AC the first time and discovered that they didn't have a fan that fit, so they had to order the part. I had to wait a week, so I had no air conditioning. They got the part in, and they put the new part in. Dennis from A-US Air Condition let me know that when they were here, they had overfilled it. He said I was only supposed to have 75 psi. After they filled it, I had over 100 psi. Who paid for all that Freon? He said, “Oh, you didn't pay for it.” But nobody could mansplain it to me as to how I didn’t pay for it. He told me that that blew the valve on the new compressor that they got me. So, now, they have to get me a new compressor valve that doesn't scream. My neighbors are complaining because it's so loud. I'm afraid the HOA is gonna give me a ticket. This has been an ongoing problem for the last month. They still haven't called me on fixing this. It's been almost a week.
I apologize for the inconvenience we've caused. My name is Stacy and I will contact you about your ongoing concerns.

I got American Home Shield back because of them fixing my icebox when it needs it or fixing my stove when it needs it. I like them. But when I had someone come out to fix my AC, he wasn't able to. I need the paperwork on what they cover. Because I had it, but it has been so long. I need to know what all they cover. So when contractors come out, but they say they don't cover it, we’ve got the paperwork. Other than that, they’re great. It's just I need to make sure that when they say, "Oh, that's not covered" and it is covered. Because they would say, "We could do it for this much because it's not covered." But if it's covered, I want them to fix it. The AC is running, but it's still hot. The reason why I have this insurance is to make sure that it will cover whatever. The only thing that's bothering me is, I know I owe them, but I'm on LOA so I'm having a hard time right now to pay anybody. I'm going through a lot. We can't afford to pay someone to come out.

Something happened to the AC to make it freeze up but whatever was going on, it went on the outside. The gentleman checked my filter too and made sure it was clean. Then, he turned the heater on. He said that the heat had to be on to thaw up those pipes that were frozen. Everything was great with American Home Shield.

I had American Home Shield before and due to some bad experience, I canceled it. I'm gonna cancel it again because I had some issue with my dishwasher. A guy came in and he wasn't even in my place more than three minutes. He didn't turn on the dishwasher and he just said it was not a dishwasher issue but a plumbing issue. I had to be charged for the service that he came here for. He asked me to sign some documents but I told him, “I'm not going to sign it because you didn't do anything.”
American Home Shield reschedule a plumber. The plumber told me that the issue was something very simple and the first guy could have fixed it. There was something stuck in the air of the dishwasher so he put some type of a wire in there and he fixed it. The last time we had the dishwasher fixed, it was a week and a half ago. We had another claim when we were not getting cold air. A tech had to change a small piece in there. Everything is fine now. I had another claim and it was for my fridge. I already paid for it and nobody came to fix the fridge yet.

I had requested 3 items in my home to be serviced. 1. Faulty shower cartridge issue, 2. Dishwasher Leaking and 3. Washing machine and Dryer. The service request was made, and the appliance representative and plumber came to my home on April 29. To date, I have called weekly to get a status on the shower cartridge repair and the dishwasher, it's been 10 weeks since they were in my home, and I have been told weekly that a manager from the escalation department will contact me.
To this date I have not had a resolution on how they are going to proceed. The management company of my building has told me that if the water is leaking in the walls to any neighboring apartments, I will be responsible for the damage. American Home Shield has not provided me with any status on how they are going to proceed with this matter. I do not recommend this company.

The air conditioning unit downstairs wasn't working. When the techs came out, the first diagnosis was that there wasn't enough Freon. American Home Shield only covered $10 per pound on Freon and it costs $100. It wasn't going to be covered, which was disappointing. But, what ended up happening was the tech started to put the Freon and then saw it wasn't a Freon issue. He said it was freezing up so fast. He went up and took a look at the blower unit and said that was where the problem was and ended up fixing the job the same day, and ordering the parts. I had asked him about what would this job normally have run and he said it wouldn't be any less than $1,800. So, for me, that one was a good example of where AHS came in handy to have.
The AC has been working well. They were all great. They did everything I could have asked for. When the tech found it was a part, he came back that same day. He realized he needed another part and they had another technician go and get and then meet the technician that was at my house. I couldn't ask for more from Liberty Plumbing on that event.

American Home Shield has been pretty good for me. They reacted every time with no problem. The thing is that some things aren't their fault. Right now, our water heater claim is not done yet. The only thing I found was they confused me with this because when I read the email they sent, it basically said that I was disapproved then it said, “Hit this accept button.” I was only worried that when I hit the button, they would say something different.
I called American Home Shield and I got somebody who said, “No, you're not disapproved. It's the item here that is not covered by your warranty.” The piping isn't in accordance with how to install an Apollo system, even though it's been like that since American Home Shield replaced that water heater 11 years ago. It wasn't their fault. It’s just the plumber came in and hooked it up like that and it worked great. Now, they wanna do major changes because they say it's not up to code. I accept that.
I also have a refrigerator claim that’s not yet done. Price Right Plumbing was the contractor assigned for that. I was told to contact them because there's something that had to be done that I had to pay for. All the tech did was come out and look at it and said it was leaking. The way it is right now, that stuff is not readily available.
I haven't used American Home Shield very much. I had it in place because when I bought my place, the stuff here were already old and just chugging along. I've had my refrigerator for 18 years. That one died and that's also being handled by American Home Shield. I got an email from the company that American Home Shield assigned to us and all it said was they would contact me when they had the unit and were ready to install it. They would then schedule the service. If somebody has a new house with all new appliances and they're two years old, I don't recommend any warranty service. But if they have a few years on them, then I recommend having one.

We've had American Home Shield policies at two different houses. We had a claim where Climate Kings came out and it was the most trouble that I've had from the most recent issue. Initially, we called saying that the air conditioner was not working. This was back at the end of June. Climate Kings just tried to band-aid fix it the first time. They topped it off with Freon, called it a day, and left. That night, it quit working again, so I called them back. They came out the next day after that. They said, “Oh, the entire air conditioning unit needs to be replaced. But it’s July Fourth weekend." I was like, ‘Hey, I get that. That's understandable.” It was bad luck on our side, but at least it's going to be replaced. I contacted them on July 5th, and they said, “Yeah, we're waiting on American Home Shield to approve it. We've submitted everything. We're good to go on that.”
I called the day before yesterday. This is now three weeks, and American Home Shield had not even submitted the claim to get the parts yet. We’re in the midst of a heatwave that is extremely dangerous. I was like, “My mom lives with us. She’s elderly. We have heat advisories going on. Why are the parts not being ordered?” No one could answer it. After I raised a claim with them threatening to email the CEOs and every vice president I could find on LinkedIn, they finally called yesterday and said, “We just wanted to let you know that we did order the parts. We're just waiting on them.”
To be fair, though, AHS is also the most expensive one. We’re in the middle of inflation and when we purchased the contract, they didn’t account for that inflation. So, they’re losing money a little bit on having to replace an entire unit, but it is what it is. We have a contract for six months before we even got to that point. I did try to do a maintenance thing through American Home Shield. They clean out your AC ducts and everything right before the summer hits. I signed up for that, and paid for it and then, they called me back and said, “Hey, we can’t find anyone that’s willing to do it, so we’re canceling it.”
The home warranty is paying for itself. Thankfully, we are in a position where we can run to Home Depot and purchase a window unit to try to keep the house somewhat cool for my mom who’s there, but someone else who didn't have that capability to where they could go out and purchase it was relying on their home warranty to keep their house up and running. I would not recommend American Home Shield based on this. Also, they are doing the service, but we are gonna come out of pocket with some money. On top of that, they’re dragging their feet on getting it set up. I've been on the phone with them at least five times trying to get these things done.
I certainly hate to hear that you have received less than satisfactory service & I apologize for the inconvenience. Thanks for sharing your feedback. Have a great week.

I had a problem a week ago and American Home Shield was very helpful. I got my problem taken care of the next day. Also, the tech was knowledgeable. He explained everything clearly.

There was a leak from the faucet in our bathtub. We went through the phone system to submit the claim and American Home Shield had somebody come out. The first company that came out said they were waiting on a part. But we weren't getting any kind of follow-up or response. We kept calling and nobody could get ahold of them. Finally, after going round and round with Home Shield, we got them to cancel the first company that came out and send out another company. The tech got it fixed that day.
The faucet is good now but the process was aggravating because the original claim that we've made with Home Shield was in January and it was three months before we got it resolved. The first company to come out was in a couple of days. After that, it was at least once or twice a week, I would have to call American Home Shield and say, "I've heard nothing from the plumber. I've heard nothing from you. What's going on here?" I know with everything going on in the world and there are supply chain issues. But we're paying extra money because our faucet was leaking.

I have 14 policies with American Home Shield, and I have had some very mixed results. It's high, medium, and low with regards to my experience with Home Shield, depending upon which case and which issue. We're waiting on them right now to respond to a two-week old issue regarding a kitchen sink stoppage. In that case, they're not very good. When we had an issue with electrical and the lights were blinking, Circle S came and it was a good experience. The middle part is we have an issue with the garage door that the paperwork is not caught up with, so that's a lukewarm response too.
In general, it's very difficult to talk to a live person you can have a conversation with, and in many cases, you can’t understand them. Their customer reps are pronunciating well, but they have a heavy accent a lot of times and it’s difficult to make out what they're saying. You also have to manipulate the system to find a live person who’s gonna handle your problem. However, I've been a Home Shield customer for over 20 years and I expect there to be issues. We use them in a business to business way, so I understand things aren't going to be always straight A. I have other home warranty companies that I work with, and in those cases, typically, I have a rep that I can deal with directly, which makes the process so much easier.

We had a huge issue with AHS last year. We had A1 Plumbing come and they were horrible. There was an issue with the overflowed toilet and they tried to fix it.

American Home Shield has been pretty good. I haven't had any problems with it since I've been a member for a few years. Every time I made a service call, everything is pretty sufficient. I've had to make a service call for my air, hot water heater and garbage disposal, and the contractors have come out in a timely manner. I'm pretty satisfied with them. The last thing I've made a service call on was for electrical. Wiley Electric came out and had the problem resolved pretty quickly. My circuit breaker had to be replaced, and they didn't have to come back.
The agents are really friendly and understanding. Usually I'm calling them because I have a question about something with some coverage and they make sure that I have all my questions answered. I submit service requests online 'cause normally, when I have an issue, it's after hours. However, the last one that I had was done over the phone with a rep and it was because I had some questions with the electrical. Answering online, it didn't really give me a lot of options of what to select. So I wasn't for sure. I'm overall satisfied with American Home Shield.

We're still waiting for reschedule appointment for a vendor to come back out for our heating and cooling. The contractor American Home Shield sent out was Frog Pro. The technician supposedly fixed it then immediately left. But there was a different diagnosis and he never told us. When we called him, he said he would get in trouble ‘cause he had to talk American Home Shield first. We had to make a reschedule for free cleaning, which is cleaning out the cooling, and they said that was the problem. However, we missed two appointments with them. They never showed up. While we called American Home Shield, they said the true diagnosis was thunderstorm damage and wiring. We’re being fed lies.

Sears recently came out and the repairman was in and out fairly quickly. We had our stove repaired. It wasn't heating like it normally did and there was some type of switch that was melted that he had to replace. Previously, there was a super huge heatwave and it was dangerously hot. The air conditioning went out and I had to wait about four days to get some service versus 24 hours. I had to go buy a window unit and put it in one room until we could get someone out to service it. I would recommend AHS, but I would also give them the warning about the air conditioning unit.

The service lately, with the washing machine, was aggravating, but it's been taken care of. My mom has a washing machine without an agitator. I asked her and she said she'd never get one another one without it. I told the American Home Shield person, "I want it with the agitator." To a degree, I was run around and told I was gonna have to do a restocking fee. I asked for someone to send me an email with their name and information. “Well, I can’t do that,” then the rep, Han, was able to send me an email with some information. She was totally awesome. I was able to get what I needed to be taken care of, and a washing machine with an agitator will finally be delivered this Thursday. So I’m with happy with it.
My AC also went out, and Triad Controlled Climate and an electrical guy came to fix it. The time before, American Home Shield sent someone out to replace my condenser and I had to pay for the Freon. This time, they had to come out and replace the condenser again, which is the second time it had to be replaced because the two units don't talk to each other. That got aggravating, but now, I've got AC.
However, there were two problems with the AC. I was told a centipede went in there and shorted it out, so the AC guy fixed that, but it also popped over my other electrical. I was told from AHS that it would be a second deductible, because it was electrical versus AC. I said, “Wait a minute. It's the same issue. My AC went out. So what's the problem with it being just one?” Then the provider from Triad Controlled Climate got on the phone and helped me with that, but I'm having issues with getting the electrical guy to come back out.
The electrical guy said, “If there's a problem, just call me and I will get it taken care of.” I sent him an email and a text message several times. I also tried calling him for him to come back out and fix the electrical box, but I have not gotten anything back from him. All in all, having American Home Shield has been beneficial for me, and I have suggested them to others, even my pastor. I feel more secure about the house having it than I do not having it. I also put a comment on Nextdoor.com. Some people like it, some don't, and some dread American Home Shield.

Submitting a claim was fine. But I had to put my card on file, and I didn't. I wish there was a little bit more explanation about that when you're signing up. Right as I hit submit, it was like, "Okay. We gotta check out to you." I was like, "Oh, wait. What happened?" But that all went through.
I sent in a claim and when I got the call to confirm the appointment, I let American Home Shield know that I had temporarily hooked up another water heater and asked if that was gonna be an issue. It was just a little small one. It was just enough to get a hot beginning of a shower. I had asked if I needed to switch it back over, and the rep said no. When the tech got here, he said, "Yes, because per the warranty, everything needed to be as is and connected." Luckily, he waited for us to reconnect the water heater. So overall, it was fine.

It's been really good with AHS. The only thing I didn't like is how they went up on the monthly fee. It’s a lot of money. I was very dissatisfied with that. The service charge also went up a few dollars. If I didn't want that peace of mind because something is always breaking, I would have canceled due to that.

I had a problem with my plumbing and submitting the claim to American Home Shield was good. A lot of times, it took a little longer. The plumbing company that did the work didn't get back to me right away. But after they got there, they were fine. The tech said the problem was because of a vent. I've been with American Home Shield for a long time. I just sold my house and I paid for a year for the people that bought it. If I buy a house, I’ll get American Home Shield again. I recommended the home warranty and two of my friends got it.

The first time, the air conditioning would come on, but there was absolutely no cooling. The tech found the capacitor was bad. But he did not do any other investigation of the unit. He didn't go into the crawlspace. I called because I noticed a couple of days ago that it was still running, but it was not cooling as well as it should be. I also noticed that the air coming through the vents wasn't coming up as forcefully as it normally does, so I decided to change the filter on it, even though I had changed it a few months ago. To do that, I had to go into the crawlspace.
I took a new filter with me down to the crawlspace yesterday and as soon as I got under there, I noticed that the closest ductwork to me at that point, looked odd. I saw water in the crawlspace and I looked and it appears to be coming from the air conditioning unit. I put in the request for American Home Shield that something was not right and that we're gonna have to have a repeat visit. They told me that they couldn't get here until tomorrow, and so they're coming.
What concerns me is that AHS never has anybody that comes here that's local. And we have a ton of services in the area. For instance, the air conditioning and heating. I've also had plumbing. They replaced a hot water heater for me a few years ago and that guy came from Montgomery. I had somebody here a couple of weeks to see about my refrigerator and my double oven and he came from Columbus, Georgia. I don't understand why AHS can't get somebody local.

We've had some issues with American Home Shield like their slow response time and my paying some things that I didn't think I should have paid because I'm already paying so much a month just to have it. So, that's sort of bothered me a little bit but overall, just having that comfort that there's somebody there to pay for some very expensive stuff has been an advantage for me.
Eagle came out recently for the AC. They looked at the air conditioning system and it was working when they left, but I don't know if they tested enough at a low temperature because later on, it started doing the same thing it was doing before they came out. They're gonna come out again tomorrow to take another look at it. I’m gonna stay with them a little longer and tell them what's going on. They might have missed something.
In the last experience with the air conditioner, I was trying to get it fixed and there were certain parts they wanted the air conditioner people to put in. They cost me a lot of money and I had an estimate from someone else and it didn't cost that much. When I asked the company that came out why, they said, “Well, we have to do this in case you call back, and they charge us again ‘cause you're not happy with the service. So we have to do the parts again.” I said, “Really? ‘Cause the parts, they're not old. It's a new system, three or four years old. So why you got to do all of that?” I had just had it checked out with someone else, and that bothered me a little bit. Then they came back and they had an offer to buy a new system from the same company with a different connection. I felt like I was being taken to the cleaners.
One time I said I was gonna just cancel the program because I wasn't happy, but they came back and got the air conditioning people back out, and they fixed it. It was too time-consuming. I didn't feel like it was as fast as it should have been. It might have had a lot to do with the communication with the upfront folks because I talked to one person, then they were gonna send me to a supervisor and when I got to the supervisor, that person spoke bad English too. He was worse than the first one. It's almost like they transferred it down the hall. I felt like I was getting the runaround.
I wish AHS would have somebody that could speak good English. They're doing what a lot of people do. They're shopping it out. So, sometimes it's very difficult to understand what the other person is saying. It's difficult trying to explain what's going on and sometimes, it gets muddled a little bit. They were terrible, but it's inconvenient when you have to call them back.

When we started American Home Shield, each callout was $50, not $100. Then, it went to $108 because they charge tax on the fee. Also, my monthly is $67 a month. As far as the cost for Home Shield, we are seriously thinking about changing. Also, you can't understand their reps. They don't speak very good English. But, the people who came out, 7-H services, they're perfect. They made sure that their feet were clean and they had their masks on. They were not afraid of our little dogs and they took very good care of the appliances. They fixed them all, except for the one that couldn't be repaired, the washer. The tech was very kind, courteous and respectful. I liked him a lot.

My toilet was leaking and the tech from F6 Plumbing had to change out the flap in the toilet. Also, he told me that I needed to buy some aerators for my faucets since they weren't leaking too bad and he didn't fill any water in the water tank and showed me how to drain it. He said to give it about another six months. But even though he didn't see as much water leaking on the faucet, he still could have changed them out versus me going to a Home Depot and buying them and putting them on.
Plus, I'm kind of upset with American Home Shield right now because of my contract. It seemed like every time they say it's time to renew, it automatically renews on its own. They have new packages and I'm paying more than what their new packages are but then I was told that the package I have doesn't cover everything that I have in the house.
I'm paying over $100 and the new package is not even $100 but it covers everything. I had my AC checked out at one time and they looked at everything and they told me that I would have to pay out of my pocket $2,000 because all the modifications were not covered in my service plan. The AHS rep said my packet is still not on the premiums packet. I told her to put me on a premium package but she said she couldn't do that because it wasn't time for my expiration date.
Thanks for reaching out to provide that feedback. I am glad the contractors followed through with the appointment that was set but happier for you that your issue has been resolved.

The plumber was here on a Monday two weeks ago but he couldn't do anything because they had to send a company to remove some drywall so he could get to the thing. Then, he was here Thursday that week and he determined what the problem was and he needed to buy some part, which he said he could do the next morning. I was hoping that he could come on Friday and fix it but that was not the case because when I called, they scheduled him for tomorrow, which is a week later. So, I was not exactly happy because I thought that when one day you discover the problem, then the guy would come the next day and fix it. That didn't happen. He's supposed to show up tomorrow and I seriously hope that he will. But this has nothing to do with American Home Shield. The experience with them was great and I was absolutely happy with them.

Our LG clothes washer stopped working and it wouldn't turn on. We have stacked appliances, which means that the dryer is over the washer. We called American Home Shield and it took a long time from our initial call to get someone out here. They sent a company who came out and looked at the dryer then said, "These are stacked and we have to unstack them." I said that in the very first conversation. In total, there were three companies that said they would fix the issue but they never did.
American Home Shield has a lot of terrible workers that didn't know anything. They were filling out these claims inappropriately and sending out people that couldn't do the job. The company Premier was the one that finally did it correctly. It took six weeks total from the first time that we ever submitted our first claim. American Home Shield just deleted the claim out of the system and didn't even fix it so we had to call back again and again. We used about 50 hours total. We lost two days of work for it. It was my persistence that finally got the unit fixed.
The ball was completely dropped from the American Home Shield when you call and speak to those young girls that don't know anything. They're not willing to ask a supervisor or look up the research or find out what they're really supposed to do. That was where the problem was. The last rep asked and found out what she was supposed to do and did it. She did it right.
Premier came in after a couple of appointments because they had to find out if the unit was stacked and what the problem was and order the part. They unstacked the dryer, repaired the motherboard in the clothes washer and the main computer frame then put it back together. They stepped up and followed through. They finished fixing the dryer and now it works. On the whole, the experience was so frustrating because we weren't getting any results. I was just so grateful for Premier because they handled it. They are a good company and they were professional. I liked them. All the other companies were terrible.

Also, I had an air conditioning problem. That didn’t get fixed. I had to get it fixed on the outside. When I called back, that's when the rep gave me Express Heating & Air and they were good.

Overall, we like American Home Shield. We've been with them for years, and with the time that they have sent people out, it's worked out great. However, we've had some bad experiences with a few of the companies they've sent. This happened years ago where the company said that they were going to be out here a different time. They made the appointment for us without even talking to us. We got it under text that they'd be here. We were here for the appointment, but they never came. We had to do an investigation with them and it was a big mishap. It delayed our progress in getting fixed.
Recently, we had our AC worked on. The experience was both good and bad. A contractor came out on the 29th and fixed my AC. I'm not too happy I had to pay extra for the coolant, but it is what it is. We had a leak which they fixed but two days later, it started breaking down again. I had to wait till yesterday for them to come out and fix it again. It was a different technician and a different issue but the same company. It's weird how they didn’t see it the first time. Within a few days, another piece on that air conditioner broke. The guy was here yesterday and everything seems to be working great today. In our first visit, we had a guy named Michael. He was very pleasant with us. He was training the other guy. The second guy that came out was less talkative, and just came in here, did the job, and left. But he got the job done. I'm assuming they purposely sent a more experienced tech to look at it.
One thing that bugged especially my wife was my air was out and it was a recall. Since they'd already come out, we should have gotten a little bit higher priority to get it fixed. But when she was on the phone, they said they were gonna contact us between 24 and 48 hours. I've never heard of that much of a wait. I figured it was her mistake in not saying it because then we heard from them the next day and everything went well.
I'm very happy and thankful that we have American Home Shield. It's helped us in many occasions. I usually do a claim online. It is quicker, and I enjoy that aspect. But what happened was, in this case, I had a call back. The phone call was funny. I had a five-minute hold, waiting time. It gave me the offer to call me back and I went ahead and did that. An hour and a half later, they called back. While I was waiting for the hour and a half, I figured out how to do it online right away. The lady called and she double-checked everything with me. She had an accent that I had a little trouble understanding. But overall, I understood everything.

I called American Home Shield before signing up for a home warranty and specifically asked them, "Would our air conditioner be covered?" Would they replace it if it breaks down? I was assured, yes. It's broken down twice already and we've only lived in the house for six weeks. Those times, the repairman was like, “You need a new one.” But, they never agreed to pay for it. So with that one item in particular, it feels like we were misled a little bit. But there have been other things that AHS has repaired, so that's been nice.
For our recent claim, the garage door stopped working. The contractor who fixed it did a great job. No issues since then. There's been a number of issues when AHS has sent someone out but they have corrected it to our satisfaction. We were disappointed in the one for the water heater. The company that they referred us to had a waitlist of over a week. Our decision was either to go over a week without hot water or just find a plumber who could come right away. So we canceled that claim and just found our own plumber. But other than that, they've been fast to respond.

American Home Shield’s website is horrible as well as their service. I have issues with filing claims of things that don't work here. They take my $75 and send somebody out here and then tell me that they don't cover that. They should be telling me that but if I have to call them and try to find something, I'm talking with India or I don't know what country. Going through the website is very general. This house has electric window shutters on it in our master bedroom and they worked for the first day after we bought the house and then, they haven't worked since. We've been here over two months. I'm sitting in my dark master bedroom because none of the electric windows work. But there's nobody that can do anything for that.
AHS is supposed to cover that but there's nobody to talk to. There's no box to check to get somebody that knows how to fix these. All they could do was send an electrician out because it was the closest thing. He came out here, looked at it and said he couldn’t do anything, and walked away. American Home Shield took my $75 and that was the end of it. So, I'm very frustrated with them.
AHS was set up by the real estate agents when we bought the house. We have a pool and pool equipment and those were not checked, apparently, when the policy was implemented or when we closed escrow. I had problems with the pool equipment and immediately, AHS told me there was no coverage for the pool equipment. I asked if I could add it on and they said no. I asked how much more it would have been and they said $150. I said that I wanna get coverage but I gotta sit with either pay for it out of pocket, which I did, or I could wait for a year to renew with them and then add on the pool equipment. So, it's been a very frustrating process with them.

The dryer started making noise the night before and the next day, I put in another load in and it was sensing. Then I noticed after a few minutes it hadn't started. So I looked at it and it was just dumping water, then it was draining water. Then it would go through the cycle again. I unplugged it and I Googled it because then, it was clicking. I then plugged it back in and after it kept clicking, it caught on to the cycle. But when I put another load in after that, it did it again. And the washer, which was an AT, would sense then it would cut off, stop pulling water and stop, then it would stop pulling water again and stop. Sometimes, it would spin halfway and then, it would start draining out water. The tech said it was the lid latch. It was messing with the sensing of the machine.
I've heard some horror stories about American Home Shield but I've never experienced those thus far. They're excellent. The claims process is easy although a lot of the reps couldn’t speak good English. They don’t understand you and you gotta keep repeating yourself. And you're already mad because you got a problem going on in your home. Some of them you can understand if you tune in. But some of them, you're going to have to tell them to transfer you to somebody else who speaks English. AHS needs to get some people who could speak a little bit more fluent English.
The contractors that AHS sent were cool and professional. The only thing I don’t like is they give you big windows. They would say they would be there from 9:00 to 5:00. That's eight hours. They know people got jobs so then what they would do is they would say so they would call before they come. But the last two times I had an issue, the contractor didn't call. Luckily, I was at home when they came after 4:30. In another incident, the dud was at the house and luckily, I have the camera doorbell and I asked him to give mt 15 to 20 minutes. He was nice and courteous about it. About three years ago when I used them, the contractor called when he was 45 minutes out and it was cool. They gave me time if I didn't have someone at my home waiting for them and time to haggle with my employer.

I have American Home Shield and every year, they give you a free check on your AC unit. I called but the guy said he couldn’t make it. He had a family emergency and would be there the next day. The next day, he never showed up. I called them back and they rescheduled. They said they hired a guy but he never showed up and quit. The next Saturday, the guy showed up. He was a good guy and everything went well after they got here. The guy that originally came out was from another company and said it was low on freon and this and that, and that I had an obstruction. This guy came out, put a little bit of freon and said, “You didn’t really need anything done on this. There is nothing wrong with your system.” He said a lot of these guys that come out don't know how to read the gauges.
I've got multiple rental properties and I travel a lot, so I'm not at home. Having American Home Shield, it's easy for me to put a work order in and I don't have to run around. This is the first time I've had something shady when the guy said I had a problem and I didn't. But most of the time, everything's on the up and up and they fix everything. The problem with a lot of these companies is they try to charge you or say something's wrong and it's not. But the quality has been good with American Home Shield and they take care of stuff. Sometimes it takes a little while, but for the most part, it gets done and it gets done well.

I had two claims. One was for the AC upstairs, another for the one downstairs. Something was shorting in the attic. That was why the AC wasn't working. But American Home Shield didn't cover the one upstairs so I had to get a new AC myself. D&D Electrical was the second time for the electrical. That one worked out. They took care of it.

We have a bad refrigerator. It's an LG refrigerator that was sold in 2015 and it is an absolute piece of junk. In the six years since 2015 when we got it, service people have replaced the computer, the water valve, the icemaker, and the fan. The contractors that we have had to take care of the icemaker, the computer, the fan, and the water valve have all been wonderful and they've really done a good job. They took care of things very quickly and knew exactly what to do. The issue we have now is the compressor of the refrigerator has gone out. We've been waiting for that part and American Home Shield is having difficulty getting a compressor for a company that has an LG certified technician to install it. No one else is able to install the compressor.
American Home Shield has been very helpful for us. We would have had to put on an awful lot of money to replace the parts on our refrigerator. Up until we had to have a specific LG-certified technician to take care of their compressor, we have been happy with their service in helping us get our problems taken care of. This issue with the refrigerator has stretched on since June 16th. At that time, a technician from Progressive came out the very day that they notified him. He identified the problem right away, but they said they don't have an LG- certified technician to do the installation. We would have to get ahold of American Home Shield. We've had to try and work with them for them to find an LG-certified technician.
On the whole, American Home Shield hooked us up right away with a company that has done a great job. We've seen an awful lot of that appliance company because of the bad product. That wasn’t American Home Shield’s fault. The company that they work with, Progressive Appliance Service, has really done a good job. Kudos to them because their technicians really found the problem and took care of it. But when you run into a problem like this where it's required that you have a certified technician for a particular part, we run into some problems. American Home Shield tried to assign a company to us and I called them. They said they didn't have a certified technician.
I called American Home Shield back and they gave me another company. I called them and they too did not have a certified technician for that compressor. I talked to American Hoem Shield again and the person that I got ahold of that time was very persistent in finding a person. I called that person and they are a certified technician. He came out the same day to assess the problem and start the process. But American Home Shield dropped the baton because whoever was that was supposed to order the compressor didn't follow through somehow in ordering the part.
We're a week and a half out from when it was supposed to be ordered. The technician told the warranty company that they needed the part right away. I called American Home Shield and they said it's supposed to be delivered to the technician this coming Sunday. Talking to one of the home warranty people back on the 16th of June, they listened to my sad story and said they were going to refund me 50% of my money. It would be nice to see that.

When my AC was blowing hot air, I went on American Home Shield’s app and submitted a service request. The tech came and said it was a simple fix, something he put on the unit. He was in and out in 30 minutes. I have an upstairs and a downstairs unit and it took a long time to cool the house off, but it’s finally cooled off that night. Having a home warranty is great.

Within a short period of time, I had the same issue with the garage door. So, it wasn't really resolved previously. I had paid the deductible and I said that I didn't want to pay it again. So, AHS refunded me that which I was very pleased with. When the contractor came out this time, the gentleman was more patient and was able to help me. He explained stuff and recommended some parts that came with the garage door opener that AHS wouldn't cover that would help prevent future problems. But AHS said that only the motor is covered. I had an issue with that because when I had that garage door opener installed, these parts came with it in order for it to work. So they're telling me that attachments that came with the garage door opener aren't covered, but the motor is. I'm not very happy with that all.
AHS is a little expensive compared to other warranty companies. But I'm gonna keep staying with them a while longer because they are very responsive. I just wish that in the contract, what's covered and what's not covered is in there.

Last year, our central air wasn't working, but the tech filled it because he said the problem was probably a leak. It worked throughout the whole year, then this year, the same thing happened. The tech filled it again and it worked for a week, but then it didn't work again. So, we put another call in and a different company came because the last one was booked up. The tech said that we were going to need a whole new system. He said he was going to write it up and send it to American Home Shield. Then we heard nothing. We also used American Home Shield's service for a refrigerator and our experience with that was good. But with our recent claim for the AC, it was really bad.

We've had American Home Shield on a previous house and everything was good on that. Then we've used them a couple of times on this other home. The start capacitor for the compressor went out and the techs came out quickly and took a look. The first time they came through, they tightened up a few things. It was cooling fine but it was making a lot of noise, and it seemed to work. But the next day, it was still happening and it was a little bit worse. So, they came back out and were there for about 20 minutes. After that, we haven't had any more issues. AHS is worth the money. You may never use it, hopefully. But if you do, they've always had a quick response. And the teams that they've had on onboard with them to come physically do the work have always been professional and quick and solve the problem.

American Home Shield has been amazing so far, and I love having them. The cost seems to be pretty decent. I’m also not really familiar with a lot of those things that they cover, so it's a lot easier for me to deal with them, then they contact someone that's more experienced in doing that. They would usually send the service request to a vendor then the vendor would contact me, schedule a time and come right on out. I would pay my deductible, and they would handle anything from that point. When I had to get my pool pump fixed, the process was easy.

American Home Shield is very professional and friendly. They answer my questions and set things up. The service people have been very professional except for one, and that was with the stove. My house is relatively new and I asked him if he could remove his shoes. He said, “No.” I asked him, “Do you have booties?” He didn't have any booties. So, I was not too thrilled with that. Although he fixed the issue, I was still not satisfied with his demeanor. He was talking about he had bad feet but that's not my problem. They should send somebody else if they can’t do the job the way they’re supposed to. But other than that, as far as taking care of the issues, I'm pretty much have been satisfied with the repairs.

I had problems with the first contractor that came out for the AC, which was E&S Heating & Air. The gentleman had to have been upset about something before he even came to my house. When he came in, I opened the door and said hello, and the first thing he said to me was that the air filter was the problem. I said that it had been changed. It’s just that at the time, the vent was a little dirty but I change my air filters every month. So, I know that was not the problem. I took him to the back to show where the AC was. He started taking it apart. I told him that my husband used to work on air conditioning but he no longer does that job. He does other work now and he said it probably needs some Freon. The man then told me to let my husband fix it or get somebody else. I said that I was not going to do that. I paid American Home Shield to send somebody out to fix it and he was supposed to fix it.
The man tore down my air condition before checking to see if it was Freon and I was just looking at him because I've never seen that. Normally, what they do, they try the simplest things to fix it first before they tear your air condition down. When he told me that it was my compressor, I said that it couldn’t be that because four years ago, when it went out, we didn't have any air. It wasn't working at all. My air conditioner is working now up until he touched it. It was getting cold, but it was not getting as cold. If it was my compressor, it was because of something that he just did. So, he put it back together and then he said it was not the compressor. It was low on Freon.
I didn't say a word and I went back out. I went in and I went back out. And I told him that if I've said anything or done anything to offend him, I apologize. Because I've never in my life experienced anything like this. I'm a peacemaker and I don't like mess. He didn't say anything and at the end of the day, he hugged me and I went off. He didn't even check to see if the AC was cool. He went outside, wrote the paper up, gave it to me and left. About three hours after he left, it was hotter than it was before I called him out.
I called American Home Shield back and they told me they were sending out somebody else. They called Air Control Experts. AHS said they would expedite it but nobody ever came. They kept calling Air Control and told me to call them if I hadn't received anything from them in a couple of hours or four hours. I did that and they never called me back. Then, AHS sent A-1 Professional and they were the ones that fixed it and made sure everything was okay. They were excellent and I didn’t have any problem with them. The AC is cooling okay. I find it funny though that Air Control Experts called me back yesterday to see if my air conditioner was working. They said they have an order about my air conditioner and I told them that was put in a long time ago but they never responded. So, my air conditioner has been taken care of. But I'm gonna call AHS again because I noticed that the air is not flowing through my duct in one of my rooms.

I've been with American Home Shield for almost three and a half years and my experience has been a little bit of a mixed bag. They definitely come through on some orders, but on others, not as much. But for the most part, I've decided to stick with them. My last claim with Magic Mike for the air conditioner was great. Days after the air conditioner was repaired, our dishwasher stopped cleaning. The board in front stopped working. So I had to call American Home Shield again, and a tech came out. Because of the age of the dishwasher, they were gonna be sending an entire replacement unit. So that's where American Home Shield really shines.
American Home Shield is expensive for what I pay per month and then per call. What I've learned is I have to be very, very clear about what the issue is. Because when I had issues in the past, if something's not working, they'll send someone out. But then the contractor will say, "Yeah, we don't do that," and it's still $125. So as long as I'm absolutely positive it's something a repair person can do and take on, then it usually goes pretty smooth.

I was assigned to a technician that day and I talked with them. This was a Friday so they weren't able to come out until Monday. They came out one day earlier and got the dryer taken care of in less than an hour. It's now working well. That was very easy. With American Home Shield, I have ease and peace of mind whenever something expensive goes down.

My air conditioner was not working properly. It was not getting cold in my house. I called American Home Shield and got a service request. They sent a text message and an email about who was going to be servicing our request. The people who came were professional. One of the gentlemen said he thought he fixed it. The next day, it was not working but he made a point to say that he was coming back and he showed up and assisted in trying to fix the situation. It didn't fix. The company AHS sent out said that they weren't going to replace the unit. They were only going to give us a certain amount of money for the repairs.
I had the coverage once about 15 years ago, and I was very dissatisfied at that point because I was having some issues with my air conditioning unit. Finally, after a lot of service calls and the same issues, they eventually replaced it but it took so long so I got frustrated. I was like, “You know what? I'm done with them,” but recently, I went back to them because I have a couple of different properties and I wanted to get some coverage on them for warranty purposes. AHS covered more appliances but I didn't agree with the service fee every time that you call. I also needed to have someone to cover my well and septic, and some of the other companies that I reached out to did not.

I like American Home Shield very much. The dishwasher was not working. I had a faucet outside leaking. So, AHS replaced that. The contractor they sent for the garage door was excellent. There was one incident when I had to wait a few days for somebody to come out. That was when my refrigerator line broke. But they fixed that piece related to the refrigerator. AHS is good and I would highly recommend them.

In the middle of winter, I had a pipe that backed up. It was on a Sunday. When I called American Home Shield, they weren't able to help me because their computers were down. So, I wound up having to locate my own plumber to get him to come out, because I had no toilets and had to pay for him to come out and do it. Turned out I had roots in a pipe and I had to get the pipe replaced. I didn't use AHS for that.
I recently had a contractor come out to do just a checkup on the system. I was trying to figure out why the ac wasn't getting cold. The gentleman went through and checked it, said that there was a leak in the line and I needed a new condenser. So, he told me to go through and call AHS, tell them to put in a service ticket and what I needed. I called them as soon as he left. I got a call from Central Virginia Heating and Air that said, "We've got those. We'll get things set up for you." I got a call back that said the parts were on their way out. They set up the service date, came out, and put the stuff in. I've had good air conditioning since. The only issue that I had was I had a difficult time understanding the person that I communicated with because she's from a different country and it's an accent I'm not familiar with. Other than that, it's fine. The tech was 100% knowledgeable, professional, on time, did exactly what he would do and took as long as he said it would.

I am liking American Home Shield’s service. We've used it twice this year and we have had great success. The icemaker on our refrigerator went out about three months ago and last week, we had a stoppage at our kitchen sink. For the plumbing, I put in the order with AHS and they said it could take 24 hours for the contractor to call, which it did. Pro Tec Plumbing called the next day and that was fine. But whenever I called them to check if they had gotten the work order, their mailbox was full on their voicemail, which is the only negative. When the repair guys from Pro Tec Plumbing came, they were very young guys so I didn't know what to expect but they did a great job. They knew what they were doing and came in and had the problem fixed in about 10 minutes.

The refrigerator was not cooling. When the techs came and did the inspection, the panel in the back was all frozen and the top part was not cooling. Some part was not functioning. They replaced that and they connected some wiring. They had to get the parts and they had to get approval, and then it took almost over a week before the parts arrived at their facility. They called and scheduled another time. When they came to repair it, they had everything on hand and they did a good job to replace the part and everything's working so far.

They're consistent and they let me know right away. They called me the day that the claim was in and sent somebody out the next day.
They're reliable in getting service out here. I had a couple of mishaps though, like on the refrigerator. I'm still waiting on those to be fixed and it's been a month. Direct Appliance said they're waiting on parts. They wanted me to pay $70 to have them come out again to repair one of the fridges that they had the parts on. But unfortunately, they came out and fixed it but the refrigerator is still not working. So, I'm without two refrigerators and living out of an ice chest right now. Direct Appliance also does not return calls. I have to keep calling them. I also had a pool pump issue last summer and the vendors came out to repair it. But the vendor they had was taking so long that we didn't have a pool for the whole summer last year. Then our AC was acting up again last year. So, we had no AC and no pool.

It took a week for someone to come for my air conditioning. American Home Shield wasn't able to have their first approved contractor. Their contractor wasn't available for six days, but once Sears was able to come, they did the work well. The service tech was professional, and it didn't take him very long to do the work. He had to get parts, but he made sure to tell me he was getting them the same day and came back when he was supposed to. I didn't have any negative interactions with him. On the front end when the company was first assigned to me though, the phone number that American Home Shield had was not correct. The number they gave me went to a mortgage company, and I had to do a bit of my own sleuthing and chasing around to try to find the correct number for the provider. I had to try about four different numbers before I found the one that worked.

I recently did a claim to American Home Shield for an electrical issue. The socket itself was burnt out, so the individual had to replace it. One of the wires was frayed. So, he cut the wire and then pulled a little bit more out so that he could have a more secure connection to it. He was good. He was respectful, and asked what we felt comfortable and if he needed to wear those little booties or wore his mask. We gave him appropriate guidance and he went straight to work. Before he left, he asked us to test everything out, verify that it worked and that the problem was resolved.
We've had a few issues. We've owned our home for quite some time. So, we've had contractors come in and sort of get the best of us, especially in our younger years not knowing what the issue was or how to resolve the issue paying 75 bucks for a service fee when they've only fixed the issue enough that it goes past the warranty date. Then we're calling every other month to have them come fix the dishwasher and things of that nature. We become very weary in regards to that. So, we try to test and verify that maintenance was performed and that the issue is being corrected and they're not just patching it up because in the long run, it costs me money and it costs whoever our home insurance provider is.
The only thing I don't like is that I'm waiting for the maintenance individuals. The electrical guy was really nice. We put the work order in on Friday night and on Sunday, they reached out and said, "Hey, are you available Monday morning?" We said we were and he came out Monday morning. With other providers, they try to schedule a service within 24 hours. I have priorities on where I'm at. For example, our washer and dryer were called in right before, but because there was a part that was needed, they had to order the part. We were without a dryer for about a good week. Luckily, our kids weren't home so it means we weren't going through clothes and articles that need to be washed.
With other providers, if you don't get a resolution, they allow you to find a different provider. A week without a dryer was a big deal to me. I also asked about the process if we're going to replace the washer and dryer. I was wondering about the benefits or what would be the cost difference to myself and AHS on this if I ended up buying a new washer and dryer. Someone said they would get back to me and they never did.

We are liking American Home Shield. We haven't had a problem with anything except for recently and it's not them, it was the provider that they sent out. We've had three or four different things that we've had to call on, and three out of four have been excellent. I appreciate their communication. Once a provider is assigned, I get an email. Once the provider is on the way to the property, I get an email and a text.
The last provider, Plumbline Plumbing, was horrendous. The reviews online were horrendous locally too. I had to stay on top of it, and I was about four seconds from calling American Home Shield back to tell them to send me someone different. That plumbing company atrocious. I get it that it takes a while to order something but they ordered the wrong color. The communication sucked. One day I called them every 15 minutes for three hours until they answered the phone 'cause I was so irritated. They kept asking, "This is a rental, right?" Why does it matter if it's a rental? I'm still paying them. If it's my home or a rental, it still needs to be handled. I was less than pleased. They finally handled it yesterday but it took over a month to handle a kitchen faucet that needed to be replaced.
Other than that, we've had impeccable service from American Home Shield. Every provider we've had has been quick. They've worked with my renter directly and/or updated me. The guy with Rick's Appliance Repair was great. He came out and told us what was broken. He ordered the part. Unfortunately, my renter was going out of town and I was in a meeting, so I couldn't go. Then he was on vacation, but he was very communicative. He said, "I can't come next week, but can you do the next week?" We got it replaced in less than two weeks.

I love American Home Shield. There are some things that they don't provide, but the bulk of the maintenance, they definitely provide a lot of help. So that's a plus on my behalf. I understand you gotta pay your deductible, but sometimes the services that they provide are not even the amount of the deductible. Therefore, that's an overpayment to me. The guys might come out and fix something that's not even 100. If you were to call them directly, they probably wouldn't have even charged you $100. So that price should at least be adjusted. Even if you don't give a refund, you can at least go towards your next month's bill so everyone is still being compensated at the same time. It won't slow American Home Shield's finances down because they're still receiving the same money.
I had Mike's Clean Air come out and I like them. They are all I really want to deal with if I have to. They've got great customer service. If they felt that they made a mistake on their behalf, they'll come back and verify their work to make sure that we're good to go so we won't be having the same issue. So they were pretty good.

I'd recommend American Home Shield. It's been a better experience for me than a previous provider that I used. When our air conditioner was not putting out cold air, I submitted the claim through the app and it was fairly simple. It didn't have too many fields, so it was very quick and easy to fill out. On the same note, it didn't give a lot of options to give a description of what the issue was, but once you've selected the category, it's limited at that point on what you can really describe. I received an email first that someone was assigned and with the company name and their contact information, then I also received a phone call from the company the very next day to schedule the visit.
The techs were on time, very polite and gave a lot of good information. There was potentially a leak somewhere in the line, so they put something into a part on the air conditioner. The guy said it should fix the issue, and if not, then it'll be something that has to be checked later.

But that was not what she initially told me. I told her it was 100 degrees. I had to pay for a hotel room with gas high like it is. I was not happy with American Home Shield either. I pay for a warranty and when you pay for a service, you want them to produce what you're paying for. Every month like clockwork, they take the money out of my account.
Friday comes around and they didn't come out. I had to call American Home Shield. They told me they had to put me in some type of queue to where they were going to be looking for somebody and they had three hours to get somebody. I still didn't get anybody. On Saturday, I called back. They finally got somebody and it was Reggie. Reggie got the request and someone was in my home to fix the issue within two hours. My unit is working perfectly now.
American Home Shield needs better communication and they need vendors who are gonna come out and do the work. They didn't try to accommodate a paying customer. If you have babies, you can't be in a 100-degree house. American Home Shield's service depends on whoever they have and how quickly they get there. I looked at CJ's reviews and they were horrible.

American Home Shield has been very upfront, and all the workers have been professionals. They came in and did the job. We had a complaint about the air conditioning would turn on and stop.

So he went on his phone, looked at the back of it and did something to it, plugged it up and asked, “What do you want it on?” I said “78.” It’s getting 78 now before it shuts off.

Having AHS, I pay my fee every month and when I have a repair, it's done. I'm very pleased with their service. Everybody should have AHS. I recommend it.
Thanks for reaching out to provide that feedback. I am glad the contractors followed through with the appointment that was set but happier for you that your issue has been resolved.
We are here for you if you need us in the future. Take Care.

Our AC unit upstairs was not working and we were on vacation. When we came in in the afternoon, I put a claim in and American Home Shield sent somebody out in less than 24 hours. First, we had to set an appointment time, and the tech was able to get to us quicker. He was here by 2 o'clock the next day, and he was great. He figured that it was something with the thermostat ‘cause he tested other things in the AC unit that's in the house. He said, “You know, if it's the thermostat, I have one in the car. So, I don't have to come back.” He then went and checked our outside unit. We have two units, and he checked both of them for us while he was here. He fixed everything that day, and so far, so good.
We've always had really good experiences with American Home Shield, except for the one time that they couldn't get somebody out in time. My only issue is the language barrier with who they contract with. It was hard having an issue and trying to explain it and them not really being able to comprehend what I was saying. It was frustrating because I was trying to get somebody out here for our water. We had to shut off the water in our house because we couldn't get a faucet to stop running, and I was letting them know I needed somebody out here. They kept saying, “Well, it's the weekend, so we might not be able to send anybody.” I said, “You know, we can't go the whole weekend with no water.”
They told me that we could find somebody ourselves and be reimbursed for it, but when the technician came, we were supposed to call AHS so that they can talk to the technician. When we called, the office was closed, so we couldn't get the prior authorization put in. So, then we had an issue trying to get the company to talk to AHS, and we were getting the runaround with that.
Finally, I got through somebody and she was able to talk to AHS. The plumbing company wouldn't talk to them directly because the service had already been rendered, and AHS wouldn't reimburse us until they talked to them. So, I had to call in three-way to get somebody to talk to them, and then we got refunded. I was connected to somebody in the United States, so it was a little easier. But even the company that they sent out wasn't very helpful with that. The lady said, “We don't talk to anybody. You should have had them talk to them when the technician was there.” I said, “Well, they were closed, so we couldn't. We tried.” She said, “Well, we don't do that. We don't talk to warranty companies.” It was a little inconvenient, but it worked out in the end.

Drip Drop Plumbing redid the kitchen faucet and the garbage disposal and said that wasn't working. They also replaced the toilet that has started giving us some trouble. The only contractor that hasn't really done what he should was the electrician AHS sent. He put his meter on and said, "Hey, it's not the fixture. The fluorescent bulbs burnt out.” He didn't have any with him and didn't have time to get them because he had to be in some other town. Our older son had checked it and said it's not the bulbs. He replaced the fixture and we put the bulbs in that the electrician had said were no good. They have been working fine since. The electrician didn't do crap.
Other than that, American Home Shield has been 101% doing their job. I've been well pleased with them. I would never own a property that I didn't have American Home Shield to back me up.

We're still in the middle of a claim for the refrigerator. American Home Shield is gonna replace it. So we're doing the ordering and we haven't received it yet. But the guy who came out was great. So far, so good. I have peace of mind that if something breaks down, then it will be covered.

So far, the service has been pretty good and it's beneficial not having to figure out who to hire to do work. The worst thing about it is sometimes AHS will create a call and create a second one and charge me twice. I have to call to get the credit if I need a second guy or they send a wrong person out and I end up having to correct it. Also, when I call in, sometimes I'm dealing with people overseas and they switch you to somebody in billing. So, it's sometimes a little complicated. But it's fine and the people overseas are pretty good.
About a year ago, I had my air conditioning repaired and the Freon was leaking. The guy was going to come back but they went out of business. So, the system leaked again. This year, a tech came and he wasn't the right air conditioning guy. AHS sent the correct guy out and he fixed the leak problem.

The drainage for my air conditioning was clogged up and a contractor had to come out and unclog it. With American Home Shield, I like the peace of mind of knowing that I can get home repairs done whenever I need them. However, we had a window on my house get broken, and I noticed that American Home Shield doesn't cover repair of windows.

My air conditioning completely went out. I made a phone call to American Home Shield to do a claim for it. It was easy. It’s just that they don't do anything on weekend. So, I went for three days with no air. When I have an emergency and I'm in 105-degree weather and have no air, I want someone to come out. I had to vacate my home because you couldn't stay in it. I didn't like that. I had to take my animals and go because it was almost 90 degrees in here.

American Home Shield is great and I like my service with them. Some of the stuff that I needed got fixed quickly. They sent out someone who was very nice and replaced the ice maker motor. They had to order it and that took about two weeks.
