    It's our eight year of getting American Home Shield and we've benefitted from the value of it. We had a little bit of a rocky start with the rate increases when we reinstated our policy this year. ‘Cause we had let it lapse for a month, wondering if we'd really renew again, if it would be worth the value and expense. Also, the service fee also increased from $75 to $100. We were hoping for a better discount. But other than that, AHS been good overall.

    American Home Shield's overall claims process was great. It took a little longer than I thought to get somebody out here. It took about a week and a half, but it's an isolated area. I expected that it wasn't going to be immediate. It also took a little longer to get the parts than they thought, but that is understandable. It's an older unit. The tech was very knowledgeable and was very quick. He came in. He had his mask on. He did everything that they expected him to.

    Sometimes, it can be extremely difficult to make a claim with AHS. My property is in a rural area and they do not have vendor coverage in a lot of cases. The HVAC company that they use is 60 miles away so sometimes the service is not prompt. But when technicians come, they are generally okay. AHS should get some decent vendors. I also have the home warranty on my home, which is in a metropolitan area, and it seems to go fairly well. But sometimes, it's very difficult to deal with AHS. They use a call center out of the Philippines and it's very difficult for them to understand English or for me to understand their English.

    I had an issue and American Home Shield responded. They sent the tech out to fix it and we have a follow-up issue with the same thing, so we're waiting on a technician to come and look at it again. I was able to place my claim without any issue. The only thing that I do not like about this particular policy is that it was purchased by the Realtor for the seller that was selling me the home. So, I didn't get to make any changes to it. When I got all the information together to put a claim in for something else, I wanted to add a policy for, let's say, the plumbing. But at that time, it was too late. I have to wait now for a year. So, it's a little unfair. Had I purchased it, I would’ve made sure that it had everything I wanted. I didn't need it until something broke or something went wrong, and I called to see what was involved with it. I couldn't even make upgrades to it.

    My refrigerator was not making ice and it was not getting cold. It wasn't freezing anything on the freezer side. The first claim I submitted, American Home Shield couldn't get anybody out to my house 'til the 12th. When the tech got out here, he said that he couldn't service my brand of refrigerator so he went to check with his manager. The manager said that if I wanted them to service my refrigerator, he could. He looked at it and said that the issue was the compressor and that he would have to order a part. It would be another week before that part came in and before we could make another appointment for him to come out.

    A couple of days before he was supposed to come, he called me back and said that his company does not service my brand of refrigerator so he won't be able to come out and look at mine. So, I had to call and it took me so long to get back in because AHS saw I already had a claim and the rep kept referring me to the contractor that was already there. I eventually got another company to take a look. It took five days before they could come out as well. It was almost a month just waiting to get my issue taken care of. But the issue is nothing on Home Shield. It was the company they initially got. Other than that, the tech who came out for the second company was very professional.

    Our refrigerator wasn’t working right. It made a noise and did not keep the temperature. So, we had someone come from an appliance store through American Home Shield. They diagnosed the problem, then ordered the parts. And not too long ago, they were here and resolved the problem, which we’re very happy about. Since that happened, my husband had spoken with AHS and they have always directed him to the proper company with our heating not too long ago. They are helpful in that sense that they direct you to the right people. So, everything was followed up. We’re very pleased.

    However, when we were having trouble with our heating, it went back and forth a couple of times, which the heating person had recommended a certain course of action. I thought AHS was dragging their feet a little whether they would approve it. If it didn’t happen, we wouldn’t have heat. I understand they like fixing things when it’s completely broken. The technician had to come out three times before it was approved. The whole thing would have just broken down and we would have had no heat. Who wants that when you’re looking at wind chill factors in the teens. But once the problem is diagnosed and they approve it, it’s very quickly resolved. It’s just getting that approval.

    US Air was our contractor for a claim and they were right on top of things. Bobby is the owner and his wife is the office manager. They returned our phone calls and made phone calls telling us when they would be here. They were excellent working with us. We were right in the middle of a freeze. Bobby came out either two or three times. The units were frozen up and we couldn't really do anything until they became unfrozen. We didn't have water that we could try and melt the ice off. US Air was very attentive.

    Up until my most recent claim, I haven't had a problem with American Home Shield. But we have a claim going on right now that I got a real problem with. It's been over two weeks and they assigned somebody to me for a plumbing issue. They didn't call, didn't show up, and didn't do anything for 10 days. I called back and got another person assigned last Wednesday. American Home Shield told me that they would be here at my home between 8:00 and 2:00 on Friday. I waited. Nobody showed up. Nobody called so 4 o'clock Friday afternoon I called American Home Shield and got the fourth or fifth representative on this particular case. She worked it out. She called the contractor and I got to talk to the man. He said he would be here between 8:00 and noon yesterday. There was no call. He didn't show up.

    I know they are busy but all they have to do is pick up the phone call and tell somebody what's going on. I'm just not happy at all. I paid my $100 Saturday two weeks ago and there's still no help. In comparison, I never had a problem getting ahold of US air. The main problem I'm having now is the contractor wouldn't answer their phone. It kept saying their mailbox was full. I've gone through five American Home Shield representatives trying to get this taken care of. Two of the representatives on two different days were able to pick up the phone and call the contractor, get through to them, and talk to them. But I've called 15 times and I got the same message about leaving a message. It's clear to me that the contractor is watching their caller ID and they are picking up for American Home Shield but not for the people who have been referred to them. It's been frustrating.

    There was an unusual noise in the furnace. I called American Home Shield and customer service was okay. There were two different technicians who came for the service and both of them were very pleasant. The first guy took a lot longer trying to analyze what the heck was going on. The one thing that surprised me was he asked me if I had the wiring diagram for the furnace. I looked and found the instruction booklet but the wiring diagram was not in there. He found they had to replace some motors on the fan. A part had to be ordered so we had to wait. That was six days to get the part. A different guy then came out and put the part in. The furnace has been working fine and there is no noise. I was pleasantly surprised by how easy this experience was.

    I had American Home Shield (AHS) until two days ago. They are lousy. When I call for a service they will say we will send a tech to our place. They are always finding a way to not cover my service inside the house. And I end up paying for the service fee just for a tech to come to my house and say, "No. This is not covered." I ended up paying hundreds of $s each time. I called for a broken shutoff valve outside my house few days ago. When I called I clearly said the main valve outside my house is broken. She said, "We will send a tech to see the issue." The plumber for the local plumbing company U.S. PLUMBING & ROOTER, INC in Antioch called me. I clearly told him the shutoff valve outside my house is broken. He came after few hours and looked at the valve. Turns it few times and says "It is broken my friend. Regular wear and tear." Unfortunately it stopped working after I turned it off. I did not have water for 2 full days.

    AHS and US plumbing both said it is not covered. It is outside the house and not on the foundation. The plumber calls his manager and they tell me it will cost $550 to replace. I said it is very expensive. I can only pay $450. He gave a final figure $480. He says, "We will do it for no less than $480." He says to me, "You can't keep my guy for too long. He has to attend other service calls." I did not have running water for two full days. US plumbing is just a ripoff too. I paid $480 out of my pocket and also $75 service to AHS. I highly advise anyone living in Antioch CA to watch for US plumbing high price gouging and also not use AHS warranty anymore. I terminated my contract with AHS and got Select home warranty (SHW) today. AHS also charged me $55 termination fee. While talking to SHW today he told me all plumbing inside and outside the property is covered under my policy.

    There were some faucets that were leaking. A guy through AHS came out and he was very nice and professional, and got everything done quickly and efficiently, so that was great. I also had a furnace issue. It had a leak outside. It was the heat pump and the techs had to find the leak first and then fix it and then put the Freon in, so they're really great about it. The gentleman that came the first time was not able to look for the leak because of the temperatures because it was cold. They had someone come back. It took a few weeks because of the weather, having the snow and the cold. I would love to have it done sooner, but with the temperatures, I know that that wasn't possible, so it was one of those type of situations.

    Sears came out and did the diagnostic as far as what was the problem. He said, "The motherboard is out," and he left. I said, "Okay. So, will you guys be the one—?" He was like, "No. It will be another company that will do your installation." I was bummed out because I hoped I would still work with Sears. When the microwave finally came in, and the new company was dispatched to insert it, I almost got frustrated with the whole process because it took almost a month for it to get completed. They came out. There was a screw that the guys couldn't get out, so they left. They left the new microwave in my dining room, left it in the floor, and they were gone.

    My son was able to remove the nail because it had gotten stripped. And they said, "We don't have tools for that," which was odd to me. In order for them to come back, I had to call American Home Shield for them to send out a note to come back out to redo it. It went on for four weeks. Finally, last Saturday, March the 13th, the job was completed. But I had to follow up with the company every day. "Are we gonna do it this week? Are you gonna send me the crew? Is the crew gonna speak English?" Because we had an incident where the two guys that delivered were speaking Spanish. I need you to speak English. It was a little frustrating, but hey, it's working. It's in. I'm good. I've had AHS for four years, and I've never had any type of issue until this past instance.

    I'm very pleased with American Home Shield. Whenever I call, they act accordingly and very promptly. They are everything they say they are. When I moved into my house, there was an electrical issue and the back of the kitchen area was totally out. I had someone come in and they said it would be a lot of money to correct the problem. I couldn't afford it so I called AHS. The tech was very nice and when he came in, he clicked a switch. I asked what he did and he said he just cut the outlet on. I told him that I thought everything on that end was out. He told me that after a while, things would wear down and that they had to be replaced. It took him less than 30 minutes to replace the outlets there. Then, everything came on.

    The washing machine needed some sort of belt and a few other things. It took a couple of months before the parts were here. Two of the parts were on backorder and I didn't get a lot of callback. Also, I would get different dates and it would be changed to the next day. But Sears showed up. A guy came in and changed the parts about two weeks ago. Also, while he was here, there was a clip that broke in my refrigerator. He offered to put the part into it and he said he would call it in. Everything was taken care of that day.

    We had to have technicians come back a couple of times. For our dryer claim, technicians had to come out many times because the company that came out before didn't do a thing. The first company we had was terrible. The second one was good. Sears also came out and they were okay. When you start getting a third party to do the work, some of them are just, "Give me the money. I'm not gonna bother with it." On the whole, American Home Shield has been beneficial. They had work done for our refrigerator and that was perfect.

    The dishwasher wasn't draining or turning on and I made a claim online to American Home Shield. The portal was easy to use although I wish that there was a better place to write down the issues. You check a box of what the issue is and I didn’t know what to put. AHS sent a text message on who they would be sending out and that they would be in contact. The contractor listened and was easy to work with. They seemed knowledgeable, which I was happy with. In the past, when we were serviced through AHS the first time, it wasn't a very good experience. But this time, it got taken care of right away. My experience as of late has been great.

    I requested service for two refrigerators, a large Kenmore and a small Sanyo. I tried to make the request online but the Home Shield website would only accept one refrigerator. That's the way it is set up. I talked to a lady from Home Shield a day or two later and I added the second refrigerator. The repair tech came out and serviced the big refrigerator. I was out of the house at the time. The tech told the wife he would be back for the small refrigerator but never returned. I'm a little upset. The Sanyo refrigerator still has the original problem of leaking and the seal on the door not working. That is bothering me. I decided not to call Home Shield and just look for a new refrigerator. I was so dissatisfied.

    Except for that one issue, workmanship has been excellent. Most, if not all, of Home Shield's contractors call or contact me immediately and that's very nice. It's been really easy to get appointments with them except around Christmas and New Year's. During COVID, they've all been very conscious about that. So far, I'm pretty satisfied.

    When my water heater wasn't working, I went on American Home Shield's website and opened my account with them. Everything went super smooth. I went through them then they scheduled an appointment for Perkins to come out for me. They told me it would be between 1:00 and 4:00. I also explained what was going on and when the guy came here 2:30, he wasn't here very long. He looked at the furnace and the internals and let the lukewarm water run. It only lasted 30 minutes.

    We had a couple of plumbers come out. There was one issue with the bathtub and there was another with a water leak that wasn't covered under the warranty. I did handle the plumber issue at my mother's house. They fixed the leaky toilet. They were excellent. They were highly responsive. So, that was a great experience. We either do our claims to American Home Shield online or via the telephone. It's a pain. There were long hold times on the telephone. When we do it online, it takes a long time to get a confirmation back. Then many times the contractor isn't able to address the issue for several days. But so far, the contractors have been good.

The company who came out for the appliances checked them and then left. They promised to come back within 10 to 15 days. But nobody has come back so nobody has fixed anything. The oven is not working for almost six weeks now and we cannot do anything with it. The refrigerator is not working as well, so we use something else just to keep things cold. The technician said he was gonna fix whatever the problem on the refrigerator was. But we are still having the same issue. I contacted American Home Shield and they said they ordered some things and it would be ready within a week or so. That has been a month and a week.

    The first time, the water heater went out, I contacted American Home Shield. The plumber came out and they did a reset on it and it worked for about a month. Then it went out again, and it's fried now. I've been without hot water now for about a week. I called American Home Shield yesterday to find out the status and was informed that there was going to be a cost of $400 out of pocket for upgrades to bring it to code, which I'm fine with. The associate told me that he had emailed the same plumber and that I should hear from them. I never did so that's where my frustration's beginning. When they were here on Friday, the little fella told me that it would probably be Monday or Tuesday before I would hear from them. But I would have to pay the money, any difference, upfront before they would even set that up. I've got to hear from them in order to pay it. So, I'm just waiting.

    One good thing is that we live in a condo and we got a clubhouse that has showers so we've been utilizing it. It was an inconvenience, but at least we're able to get a shower. Overall, the experience has been good. American Home Shield has been prompt on everything as far as when I called, I'd get a response. They've been able to get the information that I'm looking for.

    The tech came out to work on the heating unit and he fixed it. Then a week later, there was an issue. The guy came back out and at the time, I was on a work call. He climbed under my house, said that something had tripped, and he fixed it. He gave me the thumbs up and left. My heat has been working since then but two days later, I got an email from American Home Shield saying that there was an issue with the diagnosis and the cost. I called and they said that the technician said something about what needed to be repaired or replaced and that there were signs of a rodent head to the wires. That was news to me, so I called the company back to ask and they said that they would send me an estimate for what the work would cost because it was not covered by American Home Shield. But they never sent me anything.

    It was also an interesting diagnosis, as far as they never mentioned anything to me. I'm also a little confused because I live in a brick house and even though they had to crawl under the house completely enclosed, there's only one way in and there are no rodents that I know of. Other than that claim, AHS sent out techs before for multiple other things and they've done pretty well. But I don't like the wait time whenever I have to call back in to get the techs to come back out. It seems like I always have to do a recall or have another vendor out, and that stuff stinks.

    Aside from that, it seems like it takes at least one vendor to come out before they can get something fixed. The very first vendor they sent out for this heating problem said that the whole unit needed to be replaced and they didn't replace those units. So, AHS called Cutting Edge to come out and they gave us a completely different diagnosis. That's weird to me. But the two things that create the spark for the pilot lights to turn on were dirty, so the tech cleaned them and they were good to go. At the time, there was also no mention of any no rodents or any issues there.

    I was having issues with a ceiling fan, a doorbell and a garage door opener. The individual that came out was very polite, respectful and fixed everything that we needed fixed. That was great though when we got freezing rain, there was a lack of response from Relco. AHS and I couldn't get ahold of them to come out so the appointment was delayed a few times.

    The only thing that is challenging with the warranty is it isn't very clear what is covered and what isn't. We had a leaking pipe in the evening so I submitted a request shortly after the electric claim. It sounded like it would be covered based on everything I read on the agreement and in the overview of the coverage. But after the individual came out, AHS called and said it was not covered. Nowhere in the policy does it say that it wasn't covered. The representative, said, “If you would have clicked when you submitted your thing to say pipe and not faucet, then it would have been covered.” I said, “So you're telling me that just an administrative error and a click, you all can't go back once the person came out and said what it was so it could have been covered?” She answered yes.

    The individual said that her manager wasn't available at the time and that they would have somebody call me within 24 hours. But nobody called so we canceled our home warranty after the two years. I don't feel like there was much value in the coverage at this point. We didn't have any issues over the two years and it's unfortunate because it's the way the experience ended.

    The water heater had an issue and American Home Shield agreed to replace it. They got a brand-new water heater but it was defective. Dimitressee was the company that came out and they had to make three calls after that because they replaced the heating element in the water heater and then ordered two other parts that took three days to get there. They called on Monday and came out on Tuesday and replaced the other two pieces because they said they called the manufacturer of the water heater and they wanted them to go that route rather than get a water heater that had no problem. So we have a new water heater with new parts. But Dimitressee could not be nicer. Anytime I would have something like plumbing issue, they were very courteous and efficient. We are happy about the water heater, but my daughter and grandson had several cold showers because it took almost a three-week period.

    I called American Home Shield and paid the $75 for the electrician to come out, but then we resolved the problem ourselves. So I called American Home Shield and cancelled the appointment. Then I called them for the washing machine, but I have to wait 48 hours or more to even book the washing machine because they haven't cleared the $75. If that appointment was cancelled, why would it take two days to clear that off? You could do that 10 minutes on a computer and that would speed things up and keep from frustrating customers.

    When you're on the phone with American Home Shield, sometimes you have to hold for a great amount of time. It's very time-consuming. So you have to be very patient. Sometimes there's a language barrier. You're talking to people mostly in the Philippines. I'm the one making the calls for my daughter and it's very frustrating to me to have to hold for so long, and then the time thing to get it all straightened out is just remarkable.

    My experience was great because of the customer service from the tech. He was very courteous, professional, polite, and respected the COVID issue that’s going on right now. He had shoe covers and face mask. The claim was for toilets where he had to replace the components. He did that within a timely manner. I requested him again. He just left today regarding another issue. He came to diagnose the water heater. Someone else will be coming out to take care of that. Overall, American Home Shield did great.

    Customer service is terrible. In my first year of coverage, they kept me on the line for so long. When I called back, nobody had an idea about the previous issue I talked about. It was an unmitigated disaster. I'm happy that I can file my issues online now. Recently, I put it an online request and the process was smooth. The contractor was great as well, but I wasn't happy about the coverage. My water heater was leaking and once the guy figured out what the issue was, he called directly to put in the claim. He was on the phone for close to half an hour and after talking to one of the reps, he came back and told me what was covered and what was not. I ended up paying a lot for it. As far as I'm concerned, nothing was covered.

    The assessment of the contractor who came out was that it was a result of natural wear and tear, but I got a notice with some description about some weird clause in the contract about why it’s not covered. These are my appliances that I know are supposed to be covered, and it includes my water heater. Now that my water heater is completely giving up on me, American Home Shield is giving me weird excuses about why it's not covered. I thought I was paying premium for my coverage, and that wasn't completely covered. It was a bit dishonest. I'm considering whether or not I will renew my plan going forward. I'm doing a review of all my appliances to see if I would need coverage at all going forward. That's a lot of money to be throwing away then when I have an issue, I end up still paying for it anyway. What's the point?

    American Home Shield continues to raise their premiums. They don't really inform their customers about it. The original plan that we purchased was supposed to be $49 monthly, and our current rate is now $62 monthly. That's a pretty significant jump without warning. We recently had an issue with one of our refrigerators. We called and we paid the $75 deductible immediately and they sent someone out who addressed the problem fairly quickly. In that instance, the actual service of getting something done was pretty painless.

    Last year our water heater went out and that was different too. When we had someone come out and look at it and said it couldn't be repaired. It needed to be replaced. Then he said in California, they don't replace the unit, they only offer a $600 stipend, and I have to pay whatever the remainder is. Well, in the San Francisco Bay Area, which is where we live, we don't buy a water heater for $600. So we were out an additional $800 on top of that $600.

    In order to cover our home and our expenses, we're required to have insurance. American Home Shield isn't great, but it's better than a lot of what's out there. We have HVAC coverage and we have electrical coverage, so if one of those bigger systems goes down, I'm expecting that they will make good on their policy. Hopefully, they do and hopefully, we never have to experience issues.

    This is the second time I’ve used American Home Shield for plumbing. I have a double sink and I had a backup in my bathroom. The plumber took the pipe out from the kitchen sink and cleaned out the grease trap with his finger. That was fine and let the water go down. But I'm still having water in my bathroom. He said that would go away. It's just the smell. I'm paying $45 a month and I have paid into this twice, each having to cost me $100. The first plumber came and unscrewed something in my basement. None of them used a machine. For this one, I had to call back a second time because the plumber left the connector unscrewed. He came over and apologized.

    AHS don’t have choice workers. For what they assigned and what they charged, I could pick my own plumbers to do what they did. They did the minimal amount of work and then, they would tell you to call them back again if you need something else, which is another $100. I won't be doing that. AHS takes the lower plumbers and not like they advertise on TV. So, that's the end of that for me.

    Our dryer wasn't heating up. I went online and scheduled a service call. It was pretty simple to do and it took a matter of minutes. Shortly after that, I got a response that the repairs company had been identified, and I would be in contact with them, and I was. The first guy that came out really didn't appear to be too knowledgeable. He spent more time on his phone asking for help than he was able to figure out on his own. But eventually, between him and the people he was on the phone with, figured it out in order to correct parts. Then when the parts came in, a different technician came, put the parts in, and it's been working fine since. The only thing I did not like about the whole thing was the technician that came out. It's a dryer, and dryers have lint in them. He recommended they clean it, but American Home Shield does not cover cleaning of a dryer. So I would like to see that added to the coverage. It’s a safety hazard.

    I had a claim with our washer and dryer connection and I was really upset with American Home Shield. The plumbing company wanted an APR valve paid by AHS. I told them nothing is paid outside the work. We pay for it. But the inside should have been repaired. I know anything outside the walls is not covered but I wasn't home at that time and my husband doesn't know a lot of details. If I were home I would have told them to not put the pressure valve in the work order and to get the washer connections done. But with the way they put in the work order, the claim was denied. I had to pay everything out of pocket and I was really upset about it.

    Also, the people who took the call didn't communicate very clearly. There were some disclosures that I wasn't aware of when I put in this request. They said it was a modification secondary cause and if they had told me in a very simple language that it wasn't covered, I would have understood. And then, the third time I explained everything, the agent said it should be covered because it was inside the house. We called the plumbing company and they said it was not covered and I have to pay out of pocket. It really made me upset when the plumbing company dictated my insurance company on what is covered and AHS just went with it because they don't have to pay for it.

    Every time I called AHS, I was told they need to go to an escalating group but the escalating group never talked to me, even though I was on hold for so long. Nobody ever called me back. I was really disappointed. I was thinking of extending my services for next year, but I'm not gonna do that. I have very mixed feelings. This plumbing job with the washer left a bad taste in my mouth.

Then, AHS sent Savvy Tech and Savvy Tech did a decent job. They repaired two of the products that the other people were claiming other things that they didn't know anything about. Also, they did a good job of following up and finishing the job.

    But American Home Shield does not follow up so I would not recommend them for a company with follow-up practices. The online platform isn't set up to tell them that multiple appliances have issues properly so I have to call in and it takes forever. They disconnect frequently and they don't call back. It's not a pleasant scenario. Also, their inside people are not well-versed. I've called them and asked about certain items covered by warranties and they weren't very clear.

    I've been paying for our AHS warranty for years and I've never used it. And when I needed to use it, I didn't even know what I signed in. But once I figured out how to get in and what account it was under, it was easy-peasy. They were really quick, too. But with the first company that they referred me to to do the service, as soon as they were able to schedule the appointment, the company canceled it and said I had to call and get something set up. When I called to reschedule through them, the earliest they could come out was in four weeks. That was crazy and I couldn't go that long.

    So I called American Home Shield right back and they said they'd find me another provider and give me a call at the end of the day. So, they called and by the next day, they have found me a new service provider and that service provider was out to my house within less than a week. They serviced my appliance, found the issue, ordered the part, and it was good to go. So I was glad that the first company didn't work out because the second company was pretty awesome. Overall, it was a smooth process with AHS.

    The only downfall of American Home Shield’s service is how long it takes to get a repairman here. The last time that they repaired an air conditioner, it took a whole week. I called the contractor on a Wednesday and they said that they wouldn’t be able to get to me until the next Tuesday. It was cold and we didn’t have any heat. But it’s not AHS. It’s the people that they reach out to. Maybe it needs to be where if they can't come to do repairs within three days, then they need to follow up with someone else.

    AHS has been beneficial. I've been able to call and use them. There was a time that I forgot about them and I always called people and had to pay. Then for some reason, I remembered I had them. AHS has been responding and doing everything. They had this thing during summer with the air conditioning. I had to get one of my coils fixed and we had to pay 700 something for the Freon. That needs to be looked at because different companies charge different prices for the amount that you have to get.

    I did get a call earlier from somebody from Able. But I had mistaken them for some other company that keeps calling me every day about janitorial services for my company. So I mistakenly told that guy, “Stop calling me,” thinking it was the other company because I didn’t see the number. Then I realized what number it was, so I called back and it was Able. I spoke to some woman there and told her, "Look, I'm still waiting for the install of this dishwasher. It's been in my garage for three weeks now. What's going on?” She said she would call American Home Shield. I haven't heard back yet but that was just a couple hours ago when she tried.

    I own a few rental properties and have self-managed for years. I looked into getting Home Warranty (HW) plans for them since I became a remote landlord in 2020. My thinking was that "outsourcing" repairs to HW plans can reduce repair management headaches and help make budgeting for repair costs easier. I did extensive research on various sites, including this one, which was the main influencer on my decision, before buying. To hedge my bets, I selected THREE different companies and different plans from each, for my different properties.

    To summarize: Through a sequence of events that turned out to give a thorough testing of HW plans, within half of a year one plan (American Home Shield) caused me about $8000 in additional property damage, another plan (Select Home Warranty) and I paid Early Termination paneities to cancel all three plans in the end. I will offer my opinion at the end of my review on why I do not believe anyone will benefit from HW plans, given the same amount of dollars spent.

    A brief run-down of events with American Home Shield:
    9/18/2020, placed order for AHS contract.
    10/19/2020, contract became valid and was in effect.
    11/16/2020, about 3:30pm, received message from tenant about wash machine leak. Submitted service request online.
    11/16/2020, 3:47pm, service request acknowledged by AHS. Repair vendor selected. Dispatch ID: **.
    11/17/2020, 12:54pm, tenant gave the update wash machine was OK. But leak was due to a plumbing issue.
    11/18/2020, 1:57pm, AHS selected vendor, IRH plumbing, Dispatch ID: **
    11/19/2020, between noon and 3pm, IRH visited the property.
    11/19/2020, 3:36pm, I called IRH and was told water heater was found to be leaking. Replacement needed. But they needed to wait for AHS approval.
    11/20/2020, 4:54pm, I found AHS denied the repair--no explicit notification.
    11/21/2020, Called AHS and was told IRH told them the leak was due to "pre-existing leak" (the water heater sit in a closet behind a door which showed no sign of water coming out). Called IRH again wanting to find out reason for AHS decision. Couldn't connect. Left voicemail. Called AHS back and was given the choice of paying for another visit by another vendor for "2nd opinion". Agreed and paid.

    11/23/2020, "Clear Water" selected by AHS, did the 2nd opinion visit

    Due to Thanksgiving, AHS policy allowed Clear Water up to 48 hours to give them their finding. 48 hours went by, 3 days went by, one week went by. NO report was given to AHS. As a result, AHS continued to deny the replacement. AHS escalated the case to their "vendor relation" team manager. Promised me a response within 24 hours.

    By the time I canceled the policy in 12/2020, no call from AHS. During this time, I opened a warranty claim with my Home Owner's insurance plan. By the end of 11/2020, the leak from the water heater had gone up the drywall by about 5 feet. Subsequently, the house suffered $8000 in water damage due to the leak in JUST ONE WEEK. My Home Owner's policy paid the $8000. But I paid the rest--the water heater, the "2nd opinion", the "repair visit" by IRH. Lesson learned here: Putting the dollar amount aside, the amount of stress caused by AHS was completely overwhelming. Repairing your property is the last item on their list. Their priority is to deny repair. Buying a HW plan in this case demonstrates it's like buying a bullet, handing it over and paying for someone to kill you.

    A month after this episode, my stove broke down in another property. I paid the $75 visit fee. Then Select Home Warranty denied the repair, citing the stove was improperly maintained. It is a very old stove that came with the property when I bought it. I never "maintained" it. My tenants kept using it until it broke (the temperature touch pad fell off, due to its plastic clip "leg" breaking). Lesson learned here: If you have an older appliance, you will find it very difficult to get it repaired under a Home Warranty plan.

    In summary: In my opinion, your chance of getting repair claims approved is improved if you have a Class A property, with brand new (or very new) appliance, plus, you do regular inspections onsite. But if you are in that situation, paying the HW premium is not a smart way to spend the money. If you are not in the above situation, you very likely is throwing money away. It is better to save the money in a "reserve fund" and hire the repairmen directly. You will enslave yourself to a "bad boss" who doesn't have your best interest if you are working through HW company. After this was clear, I paid the fees to cancel my one-year contracts with all of the HW plans I had with all three companies.

    On 12/09/20 I placed a service request for my oven and paid a deductible of $100.00 so we could have enjoyed a cooked Honey Roast Ham on Christmas! As of 03/11/21 my oven has yet to be repaired! I Spent hours on the phone waiting for American Home Shield to answer only to be placated by their answering service who never transferred me to a supervisor or manager who can make decisions. This turned out to be futile, stating they are busy and only created a work-order for a call back from a manager. After 7 days I have yet to receive a high priority call from one who can make a decision.

    After all this American Home Shield automatically renewed my contract before expiring with price increase. This must be why AHS automatically renews contracts, no one would renew with this kind of service! It is impossible to talk with American Home Shield for service! They will surely sign you into a yearly contract, and take your payments. But you can FORGET ABOUT GETTING WARRANTY SERVICE, or A CALL BACK! I would NOT RECOMMEND this HOME WARRANTY COMPANY!

    I normally schedule claims on the American Home Shield webpage. The webpage works fine and I prefer that. I did a plumbing claim and that was an unnecessary expense considering the plumber who worked on the problem on November the 13th put in a shoddy sump pump, which caused me to have to use the services less than four months later.

    The young man who came this time was professional and he let me ask whatever questions needed to be asked. That was when we found out when the original sump pump was put in, the technician never cleaned out the well where the sump pump goes in before he put the new pump in. Some debris got up in it and it shorted out the sump pump.

    I also had a claim for my refrigerator. They never got the ice maker on the refrigerator working because a part is no longer being made. Some new chip that was put in the refrigerator was the wrong chip to go in there. The second time out, the tech then was able to put the correct one in so the refrigerator works fine with the exception that my ice maker hasn't worked since June.

    I love the quick response of American Home Shield and they do take care of the problem, even though some of the contractors they are using are subpar. Also, I was supposed to get a refund of some $448 for my oven that went out right before Thanksgiving 2018. The previous person I spoke with after the sump pump issue said they were gonna have somebody reach out to me but I never heard from them. Despite that, I have no issues with using American Home Shield because they tend to get a tech out to get things corrected almost immediately. I still refer family and friends to American Home Shield.

I needed immediate attention but when the meeting appointment was scheduled, it took almost two weeks. That was not a good experience but once the contractor came, it was pretty good. Then, I submitted a claim for my washer, dryer, refrigerator, and gas stove. Express Appliance Services came out and it was much better, much faster, and better communicated.

    Before I even started using American Home Shield, I used Air 72 so I'm very happy with them. Also, I'm a realtor. Wwhenever my clients need HVAC, I always refer them as well. They always do a great job. They don't create any issues when there aren't any, and they're priced well. When I needed to report the issue, I wasn't in front of my computer. I didn't have any information with me. But I called the number and was able to put the request in very easily through AHS' automated system.

    I have a service request in right now for my dryer. I put that request in two days ago, and AHS scheduled Sears to come this morning. I gave AHS the updated phone numbers but evidently, Sears or AHS has the incorrect phone number. They have our old home number, which is no longer in use. And they called that number. They're supposed to come between 8:00 and 12:00 today. They called that number at 9:00 o'clock. Nobody answered because we don't use that phone anymore. And then, my husband waited and waited. He finally called after 12:00 to AHS and found out that Sears canceled and was rescheduled on a Saturday. My husband was upset about it.

    I had another issue. Back in October, I had an issue with my HVAC. It was hot. I was out of town. I had somebody staying at my house watching my dogs. I didn't even think about reporting it to AHS, putting the service in. I called Air 72 directly. And then, in the middle of that, I realized that they were already coming out. I called AHS and said, “Hey, look. Can I get this covered?” And they told me no because I contacted Air 72 directly. I paid for it out of pocket.

    The seal on the dryer was getting looser and looser. I'd been able to maintain that in working condition without making a service call. However, it was getting really loose, and I was getting a message that the door wasn't shut. I put in the service call and the gentleman came out. He looked it over and said that the problem was with the latch and the seal. So he ordered all of the parts and said they would be coming to me directly. Then I was to call a number. I got a text once he left with that information. The parts were here within two days and I called him. But that was when we had a big snowstorm, so it was hard to get people to get out here.

    Another gentleman came and as he was starting to fix the dryer, he said, “Oh, well, once I got it inside, I saw that there was another part that was needed.” Which is another part of the latch or something inside that is not easily seen. So he had to order the part for that. Then he said that he would be back with the other gentlemen because they would have to move both the washer and dryer out, because you had to get to the part from the back of the machine dryer. But that was at least two weeks ago. I've been without a dryer for over a month. But the gentlemen that came out here were all very friendly and nice.

    I called the number on the text that I got, which was the appliance place. So I spoke with them and they said that they submitted a request, but the parts weren't authorized yet, and they were denied. They wanted to know if I wanted to know what it would cost for me to pay for these parts myself and have the gentlemen come out. I was getting desperate for a dryer so I said, “Sure, go ahead and send me that quote, but I'll be making other phone calls.” So then I called American Home Shield and spoke to the customer service last week. The people were extremely friendly, very nice and accommodating. They pulled up the work order and said that it wasn't actually requested. They said they would have to contact the appliance place and have them resubmit it or submit it so that it could go through the process that it needed to, because it had to be approved.

    The appliance place told me that sometimes American Home Shield doesn't approve parts, and they like to take their time and make things difficult and that they might not approve it. But it's all part of the same thing that was approved originally. It was just an additional part needed to fix the original problem. So I couldn't quite understand why. So when I called the appliance store back, they gave me another story again. So I got two different stories. I don't know if they resubmitted it or just never submitted it and American Home Shield didn't get it.

    The customer service rep said, “It was all in the hands of the appliance place, the gentleman doing the work, and the authorization department at the warranty company.” He also said to give them at least 24 to 48 hours. If they needed to resubmit that request, and they would do so, and we would likely hear from them. I let it go until Monday, which was well over 48 hours.

    I called American Home Shield directly, first, to see if they had a request for that authorization. It happened to be after 5:00, so the woman said she would have to call them, which she did while she had me on hold. But they were closed. So she said she would be calling this morning to check on that and then, she would let me know what was going on. But, right now, she said that it's between the vendor, the appliance company, and authorization department, and that they weren't involved in that part of it, meaning her and customer service. So that's where I'm at. I'm hoping to hear something today so that we can get this resolved.

    I had a situation with a washer once before. The vendor was here and fixed it. I go through American Home Shield when I need to get any service to the home done and all my experiences have been okay. This is the first issue I've had. We bought this house from the original owners, so the warranty situation was just transferred over to us. So not being familiar with all the stuff that they agreed to and go through, I'm probably not as well versed in the details of what the original contract was and how that was discussed. In this particular case with the dryer, I'm very dissatisfied. However, I also have been a customer service representative for years, and I feel it's fair to give them a medium assessment. Because this is just this particular vendor, I've not had problems with any other vendors.

    When the plumbers came out, I paid to have the camera come out, and they scoped the line. They said that there was a blockage. They told me there are probably roots going through the pipes. I paid for them to come out and dig up the yard. Now, they turned the water off from the streets because the leak couldn't be controlled. They dug up the pipes and replaced them, but they wouldn't put down the toilets, although, they were taking them out. I try to be nice because they were extremely well-mannered. When it came down to putting the toilet back in though, they said, "Nope. Uh-uh." They said I would have to make another appointment to get the toilets put back down and I was going to have to pay for that, which didn't make sense to me.

    I had a section of the ground next to the driveway, between the two houses, dug up. They only dug down three feet, but there was one root that was three inches thick going into my driveway. I also had a tree in my yard cut down, but my next door neighbor has a tree also, and their tree is closer to my house. Their tree's roots would go under my driveway, which is one of the pipes. If it was one of their roots that went through my pipes, then the house is definitely gonna leak, but the plumbers never checked. They replaced the pipe, but they never turned the water back on. So, I still don't know if the house is still leaking. If they turned the water on, and it leaked, then they would have known that if they were to put the toilets down.

    I called American Home Shield a second time, and they made arrangements for the plumbers to come out there and put the toilets back down. However, I had to get all the flooring because with the amount of flooding that was happening in my home, the whole house flooded. I didn't want all my flooring put down there, then put the toilets down, turn the water on, and the whole house would flood again with brand new flooring. They're gonna wind up ripping up all that flooring because there were a few defective spots. The person that I asked to put the flooring down in the bathroom, put the flooring down in the living room instead. That's crazy. I've since gotten rid of that contractor because no matter what I asked him to do, he did the exact opposite.

    When the contractor got there to install the toilet, he couldn't do it because there was no bathroom floor down there. The tile in the bathroom wasn't down yet. I still got a problem and it's been almost two months. That's what's causing me most of my anxiety. The fact that if they would have put the toilets in and tested it, then, at least, I will know whether or not it's leaking. I got another contractor who hasn't started working yet. They are gathering up all the materials, but I've asked the new contractor, "Please, please, please, at least test the water before you put the floor down to make sure it's not leaking."

    I'm a little perplexed at best. When I call American Home Shield, they're on it right away. They also did exactly what they told me they were going to do, but I'm disappointed with the way things went down with the contractors. I understand that they came out there to do a job (to excavate and replace the pipes), and everything else was extra.

    The contractor did a great job and replaced a hot water heater. They were very professional, nice, clean cut, had a nice truck, and knocked it out. They did a beautiful installation. I would call them if I had something that was not under American Home Shield, some kind of plumbing. I kept their phone number. I was very pleased with them.

    We had switched away from American Home Shield last year to somebody else for a lower price. But the quality of the service was not as good. We switched back to American Home Shield this year for our warranty. I do my claims usually online and the claim process is really straightforward, easy, and simple. It's just the option list for what is going wrong seems a little bit limited. You have to pick from what the closest thing is and you still have to explain it. Other than that, American Home Shield tends to do a good job of vetting their people. We had a claim where the plumber that came out was great and really attentive. My three-year-old son was there watching him and he was telling him what was going on. It seemed the problem was basic.

    In purchasing our recent home we decided to use American Home Shield, who we had used in the past. We assumed that their customer service was what we had received over the years passed. We quickly learned not to make assumptions, actions speak louder than words. In this case No Action.... only words. No one to speak with in the company if there is a problem, that can make an actual decision. Just a lot of, should have’s and, "Can you please hold," (for 15-30 minutes plus, with still no answer.

    I actually feel when you’re on hold they’re hoping you’ll hang up and not call back. Being a business owner, my customers would NEVER come back if treated this way. At this point I would rather pay an appliance company to come out to fix the problem, than put up with any more of their horrible customer service. Will NEVER use them again.

    The tech that came out for my heater was very good. He diagnosed that it was the exhaust fan motor and he felt bad that he was having to leave. It was during that freaking blizzard snowstorm. He said, "I hate to leave without you having heat but I don't have this part on my truck." He came back a week later once he got the part ordered in then he put that in. Then they figured out that the motherboard was as bad as well so he told me that he had to order one. They ordered it then they came back out, put it in and all is good.

    I would recommend American Home Shield to anybody. The only thing that would be nice is if they didn't have to order the parts but I understand the logistics behind it. I understand that they got to keep the cost down and the technicians only can carry so many parts. The part that was bad on my unit was not a common part. I understand that they can't just run down to some supply house, pay the higher end and be able to give us the service that the cost is giving to us.

    We've had American Home Shield since we bought the house, which would be 21 years in January. A lot of people don't keep their warranty, but we did. I'm so glad we did because it's helped us out numerous times. Our house was built in 1959, so it's got great bones, but it has issues sometimes. We've had a lot of things done. We had a problem underneath the garage flooring and they had to get the cement up and take care of the piping. A leak entered the house and we had trouble with our copper piping. It was meeting galvanized piping in the back of our front bathroom, behind the shower. They fixed that. They also had to put something down the kitchen sink in order for the pipes to clear out.

    I'm also happy that American Home Shield uses Pure Pool Service. They always do a fantastic job. Bonnie is the one that handles the phones and the guys that come out stay until it's done. They're very good at explaining things to us too. On a different note, there was an issue once with the stove and most recently, we had a really bad experience as well. On Time Plumbing company was sent out by American Home Shield. They inspected the bathroom, but they didn't say much what was the matter with it then we didn't hear from anybody. Our toilet has been out of work for a month. I kept calling On Time, but I never got through to them. I left several messages then finally, my husband got ahold of American Home Shield, and they said the policy didn't cover the problem with the toilet.

    We reached the decision that we're going to take care of it ourselves. A toilet has to work. My husband pulled up the old toilet, and we are researching getting a new toilet. We'll have a plumber come and help us get it reinstalled, but to me, that was a bad choice by American Home Shield. The issue wasn't necessarily American Home Shield, but it's them using On Time.

    When I finally looked up the On Time Plumbing, it had tons of bad warranties. That reflects on American Home Shield, but we'll keep using them anyway. We've had so many great experiences when the companies they've used have really stepped up and helped us with keeping our house in good shape by taking care of the plumbing. All in all, I would highly recommend American Home Shield. I just wouldn't use On Time Plumbing ever again.

    I called American Home Shield and told the rep what my dilemma was. Within half an hour, the other company called to schedule an appointment. They wanted to come out the same day or the next day. I told them I would be working from the office on the day that they wanted to schedule. So, I asked the rep if they could come out the day after that because, every other day, we work from home and from the office. It was quick and easy to make the appointment.

    The tech showed up on time. He was very polite and professional. Took him right down to the basement, showed him where the boiler was, asked him a few questions and told him my concerns, and he tested it. He was here for a little longer than 15 minutes because he had to wait for the temperature to come up. And he measured the temperature on the vents along the walls, and told me that it was working properly, even though it's an old unit from 1984. He said that he couldn't recommend that it needed to be replaced since it was working properly. And then, I had questions for him like, "Is there any way I can turn off the other rooms that we don't use in the house?" He's very knowledgeable. He explained everything.

    The only thing that I had a situation with was I thought when I called AHS that they took my credit card number to pay that $75 fee, and a couple of weeks later, I got emails from them saying that I haven't paid my payment. I looked at my bank account, and sure enough, the payment wasn't there anymore. I went ahead and paid it as soon as I saw the four emails from them saying that I haven't paid it. It's technology. There are always glitches here and there. But that was my only issue. This was the second time I've used them. I was happy with them.

    On our secondary bathroom on the second floor, it was shooting water out onto the wall. The techs came in and they made a change in the faucet. Something in the faucet had gone bad. They just tweaked it, put a new part in, and then fixed the problem. We did have an incident this fall where we had another plumbing company come out. We had a different issue in the same bathroom. It was leaking water into our kitchen. However, when the plumber was here, he was on a ladder in our kitchen to drill a hole in our ceiling to fix the issue. His ladder broke and he fell onto our glass stovetop shattering one of the burners. That's still yet to be rectified. So, that's a little frustrating.

    The supervisor came out right before Christmas. He was wanting to fix it himself. He was wanting to buy the part and then install it. We weren't comfortable with that because he's not an electrician. He's a plumber. So, we said, "Well, if you can just give us the money for the stovetop, we'll have it installed ourselves." We've yet to see that check.

    American Shield is what I would classify as a good company. I've had great experiences, but I've also had experiences that have been painful. You sit on the phone for four and five hours to get a live body and that is a painful situation. For the amount of money that I and others spend on Home Shield for services, we shouldn't have to do that. Then the annoying part is the cost. When you have to call them back out several times to pick something, you have to pay the $130-some each time. It shouldn't be like that. If it's the same issue, then, it should be under the same repair. But then I had a claim for the ice maker on the refrigerator. It went fine as I expected it to be done.

    I have a fairly new dryer. It was powering up and spinning but it was not heating. I did a claim online and the American Home Shield website was fairly easy to use. People at American Home Shield are busy and instead of staying on hold to get a person, doing it on the website is the exact same interaction but a lot faster because there are dropdown menus. So far, I've used the website twice. The other one was when I had an AC problem.

    It states on the website to expect a contractor within 24 to 48 hours. So far, I only had one problem dealing with American Home Shield and the contractors. It was for the waterline that broke a year and a half ago. But as far as the contractors overall, they call when they are supposed to call and they give me a heads-up. And with all the pandemic stuff happening, they wear their masks, got the covers and gloves on. It's been pretty painless. For my dryer, the guy who came told me that the heating element was busted but he couldn't explain to me what happened. He replaced it and he was good to go. He suggested getting the hoses that go all the way out of the house cleaned out.

    I'm a disabled vet and I'm very limited on what I can do. That's why I got American Home Shield. That's why I pay 75 bucks for somebody else to fix stuff and figure them out for me. Thank God that I have this program. They will come out and take a look and give me an idea of what is going on. It helps out a lot. I'd tell others to get the home warranty. There was a lady who works for me and her sister had an account with American Home Shield. They had problems with it for whatever reason. It had something to do with people are not showing up or having problems contacting them. I said, "Sorry, but I've never had that problem."

We called American Home Shield, and they referred me to a good man. He came over and took care of the problem. We got the stove working. It was that the installers of the oven from Lowe's didn't know what they were doing. The man AHS referred discovered that there was no problem with the circuit box. He was really good.

    However, I didn't know how to go about reporting a problem and I learned that if there is a problem, even if I suspect what the problem is, I should call American Home Shield first. They'll have somebody come out, and then I'll pay them the minimum. If we have to buy a new stove, it would have been covered by the insurance policy. In this case, it wasn't. We missed out on that and ended up paying $1,700.

    AHS immediately hooked me up with Air Dynasty for our AC. They sent an initial technician over to do diagnostics and see what the problem was. He was super respectful and he explained everything. He said that a supervisor was gonna give me more details. Then I was able to talk to him and he was super helpful. Everything was great. Every time we've called AHS, they've been very responsive and immediately refers me to the company that was going to come and do the work. It is great to have kind of that feeling of support that when we have something break in our home, it's not going to be excessive as far as cost goes.

    We had a few hiccups because my heating AC unit was acting a little weird. So, I called, then American Home Shield sent the company out. The guy said I needed a part. He replaced the part and said the heating unit was fine. He asked if he could see the AC unit. I said, "Sure." They went outside. The guy said, "Oh, it's working, but eventually, you're going to need the fan thing. But right now, that's fine being it's still kind of winter outside." But he said, "I can tell you, eventually, it's gonna need to be replaced." I said, "Cool." He said, "You'll receive an invoice with all the information that I discussed with you." And that was it. Within 24 hours, I received an invoice with his notes stating just that. That the unit was working, that eventually, the fan will eventually be replaced.

    A week or two later, I got a random call stating that my unit is broken, which it was never broken because I have an FHA house. It can't be broken because FHA would not cover the loan, and I had an inspector report. Stating all these crazy things that weren't true, like there was pet urine but there are no pets here and there wasn't a pet from the previous owner, and all this bogus stuff. I expressed to AHS that I wasn't pleased. I thought the company was running the scam, that I needed a second opinion because they were saying that I needed a new unit, and they would not replace it and it was broken. I said that was not the case. I had to send them all this documentation stating that it was working, it was never broken, that even it said in their report that the company dates to now that it was working. I had to speak to a manager and to a couple of people before I sternly requested that I only speak to a supervisor from AHS, which I did.

    I also had a representative contact. The reason why I chose AHS was because of the contact. The manager that I dealt with was very helpful, and I'm very thankful for that. So, on AHS' end, it was good. And the second company that they sent out was very honest with their feedback. However, I didn't like the fact that the people that I spoke to before I got to the manager, I was feeling a certain type of way. And if I wasn't the person that I am, I probably would end up paying $11,000 for a new unit versus pushing because I knew what they were saying was a lie. Even the supervisor who spoke with the company realized they were lying too. She was the one who requested a second opinion, which the second opinion ended up being the right one. Other than that, it did get sorted out so I was happy with that. I already sent my friend AHS' way, so she has a new policy with them too.

    The service provider did a perfect job. They came and they found the product that we needed. They replaced some piece that we needed, and they did a very good job. They were efficient and relatively quick. They were better on average than others that we've used through American Home Shield. We had someone else who came in for the same stove issue, and they left and we never heard from them again.

    American Home Shield is efficient. But I'm not sure that I love all of their repair people. It's spotty. We're keeping it so far because it's helpful to find someone who's actually available and shows up. Get American Home Shield if you don't know the condition of the things in your house.

    TERRIBLE service, they DID NOT honor their home warranty contract with me. After being with American Home Shield for two years I had my first major appliance go out, my dishwasher. On 2/2 I called in the claim to AHS who assigned A&E Sears to repair it. On 2/9 the repair man came and said that a circuit board had died and needed to be replaced. On 2/25 the repair firm notified AHS that a replacement part could not be found and the entire unit would need to be replaced.

    As of 3/10 the dishwasher still has not been repaired or replaced. I have called AHS every business day since 2/25 asking when they would be replacing it. I kept getting told that it had to go through their "authorization department" and they had not received a report from the repair firm. Then I would call the repair firm that AHS dispatched (A&E Sears) and they would state that it was sent but would send it again. Then the same thing the next day and every days since then.

    I pay $97 a month for my warranty and I have stuck with them for two years - until now. I cancelled my contract (which took two painful calls through their retention department) as a result of the service failure here. AHS is not denying coverage, rather they just keep saying they are waiting for authorizations to approve it - well authorizations is them! AHS! I will pursue them every day until I get it replaced or compensated for it but after that I'll just put $97 a month away and hold it for any repairs that I need myself. SMH!

    We've had two incidences that we've had to reach out to American Shield. They replaced our washer because the tumbler was all broken, which was great because they couldn't find the parts. They did their due diligence. Then we had a claim for our stove. The contractor replaced the motherboard in our stove, and it seemed to work just fine. They were prompt and they did a really good job. The problem is that we're going to end up having to have them come back out because although it fixed the immediate problem, there is another problem that arose as soon as it was done.

    American Home Shield is a great company. They've upped their prices now to cover the Freon but some of the vendors that they use are not the brightest. The multiple calls that they have to go back out is very frustrating. My ice maker still doesn't work properly to this day. You get to the point where after somebody has been out there six times, you don't want to deal with it anymore. There are some other companies that American Home Shield contracts with that are not suitable. They come do their quick fix and leave. AHS could probably save some money if they quit trying to Band-Aid it and just replace. I will recommend AHS. Out of all the warranty companies that I deal with, it is the better one.

    With my recent claim, I've been having multiple issues with the same unit and I was extremely frustrated with the process because I didn't understand how five or six different people could come out and not fix the problem that will last for one day, and then the same issue will occur. Clearly, they weren't identifying what the real issue was. But the last time they came out was a good one because whoever they sent out knew what they were doing. I haven't gotten a call from my tenants saying that there's no heat so I'm assuming it's pretty good.

    This last time, I waited almost two weeks for them to give me a callback for an appointment and I didn't understand that. That wasn't always the case. It'd be a day or two in-between, and then they'll call and give me an appointment. With no heat and the same issue, they should be doing that right away. I asked to change the company, but American Home Shield said they couldn't because it was the same problem and the contractor, Liberty, needed to come out and figure out what was going on.

    I had other issues with my rental property and I contacted American Home Shield and they came out to fix the problem, so I highly recommend it, but just be careful with companies that represent them. It's very important to understand that when contracting these people out, they represent American Home Shield's name. If they did a terrible job, then it is reflected on American Home Shield. I have other experiences with American Home Shield in which every time I call, boom, right away, I get a response. My wife is selling her condo so I'm going to buy a year warranty again with them.

    I had an air condition issue. To call AHS, everything was cool. I was told it could be two days before they could reach someone. However, I didn't like that I wound up paying $100 service fee when I had to call and coordinate for the repair company to come out to my house, and they ended up coming out a day earlier. I could have picked up the phone and done that already. AHS should look far beyond when it comes to, "Where's the AC issue?" They could have called and see if they could have gotten an earlier appointment, not tell me "Hey, it could be up to two days." Yet they want a formal payment upfront.

    Other than that, I recommended AHS to my mom. It worked out great for her hot water heater. It has good points. The only bad point is that, even fixing the AC, they don't tell you Freon is $85 a pound and up. So, even though you think you're paying $100, the techs then come out and say, "Your Freon is not covered." But I still walk with worth 400-plus, plus a $100 service fee. So, you still spend 500. It seemed like to call AHS regarding AC was for nothing.

    Everything is going good with American Home Shield. Recently, the water heater started leaking in the garage. We thought it was a minor leak but it ended up being the whole water heater system that was failed. They ended up covering the water heater itself and we paid whatever wasn't covered by the warranty. The tech was very helpful and overall, I’m satisfied.

    There were several issues with the pool but the tech from Varner Spa & Pool did a great job. The main issue was that the pump would run but it would not pull water. He tried several fixes, gaskets, glue, and everything he thought to get it to pull water and it wouldn’t do it. He came out three times to give a benefit of the doubt but he ended up saying the pump was done and he made the determination that it needs to be replaced. He was upfront and honest. He told me exactly what the issue was and his work was very timely and professionally done. We did the social distance and spoke six foot apart. Also, he cleaned up after himself.

    But I have a claim now that’s kind of sketchy. My dryer is on the fritz and AHS gave me Whirlpool’s number. I stayed on hold for them at least 35 minutes every time I called and when I got ahold of them, they said they never got a dispatch ID or a notification from Home Shield. I called AHS back and a rep tried while I was on hold with her. It was again 35 plus minutes and no contact with Whirlpool. The rep settled my issues and she was very nice, polite, and professional. AHS gave me another contractor and we have a date of the 23rd for a service rep to come out and check my dryer. AHS has been spot on if I have any questions and it's a money-saver.

    I am a divorcee, so I live by myself. I also did not know how to fix anything and I’m on a very limited income. Having a home warranty gives me the satisfaction of knowing if my heat pump or an appliance would go out, I have to pay $100 but, usually, it's fixed. I have an electric, tankless hot water heater and I've had to call about it twice. I've had to call for my stove one time as well. I live 20 minutes south of Richmond, Virginia, near Petersburg, Virginia. I’m right off the interstate, but sometimes it's hard to find contractors that work with American Home Shield. That's the only thing that I have a complaint about. Everything else has been good. When they find a contractor, they're pumped about coming out and that's a plus.

    I was not very impressed with the people that came out and worked on my tankless hot water heater the first time. It was Serenity Plumbing. They halfway did the job and I had trouble with it a month ago. I called American Home Shield and they sent Pond Brothers Contractors out. They're from Waverly, Virginia, which is a 45-minute drive from here. They are amazing. We had had an ice storm, and there was a power surge issue where the fuse protected the hot water heater. All this man had to do was replace the fuse, but he had to find the fuse because it was very tiny. He went above and beyond. From what he told me, it's a family-owned business and they do a bit of everything. He does the electrical part, while his brother does plumbing. They each have their own specialty. I would recommend them anytime.

    I've been with Home Shield for 12 years, if not more, and sometimes, I gotta be on them for them to do what they need to do. I have had some experiences that weren't great and I had to constantly call back, but eventually, they got the problem solved. I also don't think it was just them, but connecting and getting parts for certain things that break. On the other hand, there was one experience where they were right on the dot. The repair people came out, they had their masks on, they put their foot coverings on and came in. They assessed the problem and took care of it without a problem. They got the part they needed, and they put it up. It didn't take any time. It was great. They were such gentlemen too. I haven't seen that type of quality in a long time. Even Home Shield, they took my claim and they called me the same day to make the appointment. It all went well, so they're doing better.

    For a kitchen appliance claim, we waited on a part for well over a month and nobody still knew anything. When I called the appliance company, they would say they were still waiting for the part and that it was on backorder. But AHS replaced it. Then, for our most recent claim, which was for the AC, the first time a tech came out, the guy told me that there was a leak and he fixed it. It cost me $75 plus 500-something dollars for the Freon. 30 days later, it went out again. I don't think the contractor knew what they were doing.

    A guy from RR Jones was then sent out and he needed some kind of part. When the guy brought it out, it wasn't the brand and it made this loud noise when it ran. He explained to me what the issue was. And he was quick, efficient, and prompt. Also, AHS was gonna re-charge me for the Freon but my son-in-law was able to talk to them. They took that off but I had to pay for the part that they replaced.

    The chain on our garage door had come loose and the technician did a great job of addressing the issue. I thought I was gonna have to replace the unit. But he figured out that there was a worn gear inside the box itself and he got it all done. He was done in about an hour. It was clean and I was very happy. With American Home Shield, the bigger issue was the timing. I had gone through extensive repair and renovation on my kitchen island. The pipes had broken and the leak was causing a lot of damage in the kitchen. So I called the plumber. We had stopped the leak.

    American Home Shield said that because I called the plumber first, they wouldn't cover the plumbing repair. Then they gave me a place to appeal it, and that thing bounced back. So the appeal was not delivered at all. The people on the phone were rather terse. They were just giving me a hard time in that particular situation. I just didn't have the time to call American Home Shield and then get a guy out because it would usually take a couple of days for somebody to come out and service something. So if you got an emergency, you got a problem. I had a couple of other experiences that were fine but this one incident soured me a bit.

    On February 13th, I came home to find my 80-gallon hot water tank had burst at the seam. It was flooding my basement. I shut it off, called American Home Shield and made a claim. It took them until the 21st to get a plumber to my house to evaluate the situation. The first plumber from More Than Plumbing company came out. On that day, they installed a 50-gallon hot water tank. They refused to match an 80-gallon or a similar-sized tank to match capacity and function. They stated that there was an internal policy, which I was not privy to, to say that they would only install up to a 50-gallon hot water tank with a proportioning valve.

    It worked for about a day then shut off. I didn't have hot water. On Thursday the 25th, the same technician came back out to my house and “tuned” the tank and the proportion valve. Again, it worked for about a day. It won't work even till today unless we go down and push the reset button on the tank’s fuse panel. I called American Home Shield again. They sent out a second plumber to evaluate the installation. That plumber looked at it, took a picture of it, didn't touch anything and didn't do anything but hear my story. He told me that it must be a bad tank and that he would report that to American Home Shield. He recommended replacement based on the warranty of the tank.

    I have been in touch with the first plumber and they were waiting for American Home Shield to give them authorization. I checked on my American Home Shield dashboard and it said that I could call the contractor and make arrangements. I took a screenshot of that and sent it to the plumber. They said that they've been in contact with American Home Shield’s sales representative and that they're working on a solution to the problem. That was Friday. I called American Home Shield again this morning and complained. I asked for it to be escalated to a supervisor. I still don't understand why it's taking so long to get fixed. The supervisor, Rose, stated that that first plumbing company is refusing to do the service so they're gonna send out a third plumber. I spoke with her about an hour ago and she'll get back to me within 24 hours from today.

    My family's been without consistent hot water since February 13th. I pay for a contract with them that explicitly states that they can put in whatever brand and model that they want but I will not lose capacity and function. When I asked them about that, they referred me to another section which gives them the power of a god and ignores the other section of the warranty that says I will not lose capacity or function. When I told them that I am losing capacity, they said, “No. The proportion valve gives you more capacity,” which is a lie. It doesn't give more capacity. It just mixes water. It's its whole function. It’s a valve. It's not a reservoir.

    I'm extremely upset with American Home Shield not honoring their warranty, with dragging their feet, with the lack of customer service and with the lack of communication. They're taking every opportunity they can to save a penny versus ensuring that a customer is satisfied with the product that I've purchased for the last three years with them. They're a fraudulent company. They should not be in business. It's been my experience with them on everything that I've called them about. In the past, it took them a month to solve a dishwasher problem. When I asked for a replacement of a Bosch dishwasher, they refused to replace it with a Bosch saying that they don't carry that brand in their replacement inventory. I was forced to take a different brand which I'm not overly happy with. Again, it took them a month to resolve that.

    Somebody needs to hold them accountable. The Better Business Bureau needs to clean them up and get their good ratings and their awards offline and get some truth in advertising. They are absolutely false advertising on the internet. Their customer service is a joke. It's a miracle that when I called them, I can understand them. They're not English speakers so there's always a language barrier. They read from a script. There's no compassion or empathy or sympathy from them. I was told in this process that I could take it or leave it, I should have read the fine print, and I could take the cash-out. The plumbing company that I was working with found one with a three-week lead time that was priced at $4,200 and American Home Shield offered me a cash-out of $537 which is akin to being slapped in the face.

    I have to go buy another one because I have a Jacuzzi tub in my master bath which has been made inoperable and unusable by this decision by them to only replace it with a 50-gallon tank. When you have a 64-gallon Jacuzzi tub and you only have a 50-gallon hot water tank, you can't use it.

Other than that, the claims process is crap and you're on hold forever before you finally get to speak to someone. I've used AHS twice and I was frustrated both times. One time, it was almost 20 minutes before I got to speak to someone. But when you finally do get to speak to someone, they're pretty knowledgeable and very helpful. The last person I talked to was a gentleman and he was really good and fast.

    The first time I called in, I got a lady and she was very sweet. She was also very helpful about telling me how the service worked. That claim was for the washing machine that wasn't draining and the guy that came out thought that he was going to need a part, but it ended up that it was the filter that was plugged. He showed me how to clean it because it's an upright and he was very good. He fixed it right away and I was tickled to death. So far, I'm very pleased with how the service works with AHS.

    The appliance repair service through American Home Shield was quick and the techs have had to make two trips to do it, but it went well. It was an easy experience. They were able to pinpoint the problem right away, the diagnosis was only 15 minutes, and then when the part came in, the tech was here. He put it in an hour or so. He was professional and reliable.

    I typically go online and put in the request when I file claims. Then, usually, we get a phone call by the next day. We find our experience pretty easy and it's helpful. There are some things that I wish they cover that they don't, like the refrigerator, but for the things that they cover, they've been very responsive.

    The emergency heat wasn't working. Air Technical came out. They said that it was a very unusual breakage. A coil had broken inside. They went and replaced the coil and had it fixed within the day. They were very polite, courteous, very informative and helpful. I would prefer them being my go-to company, versus the one that AHS usually sends, which is A-USA. They're horrible.

    One of my light fixtures in a room where there were two other light fixtures wasn't working. We thought it was the battery or the light bulbs were out so we replaced those. It still didn't work. So, the tech came and replaced the ballast. It worked fine after that. American Home Shield answers the phone sooner than they say they’re going to, being on-hold-wise, and they help right away. Then usually, within a day or two, I'm hearing from the contractor that they've contracted to fix it. They're usually able to make an appointment quickly.

    We had a water leak in our refrigerator. The tech was professional and polite. He got the job done right away. Everything has been functioning very well since he came. I recommend American Home Shield.

    There was an issue with the pool filter. The technician was good. The repair work was top-notch and quick. Submitting the claim to American Home Shield was easy, but getting the contractor I wanted to come out was difficult. They kept saying they couldn't find Master Pools in their system, even though they were contractors with them. With my experience with AHS, they always seem to send a contractor who's very far away to come and do the work. I don't really like that because then I gotta wait for somebody who is two hours away to come back again. I'd much rather have local contractors.

    We had a problem with our garbage disposal. It wasn't moving. The first gentleman that came out for D & B got it moved with a special Allen wrench, and we thought everything was good. And this last time, it froze up again. So, we called them back because we were concerned that it wasn't moving again. But they were good. I got back with American Home Shield because it wasn't that long after the first service call that we were concerned that there was still an issue, and they got it taken care of right away. It was easy to do. For the couple of times we needed AHS, they've been very good. We're happy with the service.

    I called American Home Shield during the week, and the repair people were there within two days. They were very professional. The faucet in the kitchen was leaking and I have to hold the handle down in order for the commode to flush. The repair went good, but the toilet's still not flushing like it should. They put a new device inside the tank, but I still have to hold the handle down in order for it to flush completely. Still, I like American Home Shield, and I trust them. I've had them for years and I'm always pleased with them.

    We had a claim for the three sockets that were not working. The claim experience was good. The techs came out and fixed it right away. The stove claim got fixed right away too. They said it’d take two weeks to get the parts but it took them two hours. So, it was a heck of a turnaround time. Then they came back out the same day and fixed it. For the refrigerator claim, the part is gonna take a week, unfortunately. But it's a common problem from what the technician said and it should be a very easy fix once they come back out, which would be this Friday. AHS is a great service. So far, we're around $1,000 net savings.

    During the first inspection, the tech said the appliance issue was not due to wear and tear. I complained and asked for American Home Shield to send another inspector. The second guy came in here, he reported the issue, and it was approved that we will get a replacement. They refunded 712 and I had to put in some money but at least I got a replacement and it's a newer version. Also, American Home Shield is okay for me but they have to get somebody who is good and knows what they're doing when inspecting houses.
