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

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

I sent in a claim for the dishwasher and it took me about a week and a half to get an appointment. On the day of the appointment, the guy didn’t come until five o'clock. He said he had a lot of clients ahead of time. When he came and looked at the dishwasher, he said my parts were outdated and that they had to charge me an additional fee to do it. So I said, “No problem. I can pay that.” He said he was gonna come back. But three days in a row, he didn't show up. When I called him, he was negative. He told me that I needed to update my house because it's old. I’ve had other appliances that I had to update. The contractors told me I need to update them. But I didn't get the negative stuff like I got from this guy. I got a lot of negative stuff from this guy. So I requested someone else but Home Shield won’t give me someone else.

I had a rekey and some plumbing stuff done with American Home Shield and those were fine. But I'm disappointed that they can't find somebody to service my refrigerator. It's a Sub-Zero and they said I could find somebody to do the job and they would reimburse me. Any time I got to put the money out, they can deny the claim.

The fridge was leaking water underneath the cool frost compartment. I went through the online application where you can fill up what the issue was and then AHS sent me the link with Sears coming by to fix the issue. The guy came in time and he did everything. He explained to me what happened to the fridge, and drained the water from that, and to defrost it. I'm really satisfied with AHS and how it works. It was easier to file the claim and everything went through.

We had a water leak coming from our water heater, the main pipe. The techs were to the point and expressed, unfortunately, that it just needed tightening. But they said if I would have tightened it and something happened, it wouldn't have been covered under home insurance. The experience went well.

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

American Home Shield has always been able to get someone out there for me. I've had to use them for quite a lot of repair and they've been prompt. I had a toilet leaking and the tech from Plumbing Enterprises was there quite a while trying to fix it. The seal had degenerated and he had to replace it. He did a great job and he was clean.

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

The exhaust fan was not working over my range. AHS had to replace the exhaust fan in the hood. The contractor came out the very next day, but it took them about five days to get the parts. Then there was a weekend that came in there, and then Thanksgiving came in too. They didn't work on those days. But they did a fine job.

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

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

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

I had a Central Heating system damage 10-20-2021 and as of today 11-27-2021 the problem has not been resolved. The contractor that they sent ALLRIGHT MECHANICAL INC. is totally incompetent. First they came and even though PG&E recommended replacement of the unit they decided to repair it and before they would do anything I had to pay over $700 to clean the unit. Then they ordered a part to fix it and when they came to install it they discovered that it was the wrong part. Then about 10 days later they came back with the part and supposedly fixed the unit but that day the unit run totally out of control suffocating the tenants who had to call PG&E to stop it. The contractor does not respond to phone calls and AHS is not doing anything to resolve this problem. The contractor was supposed to clean ducts and vents but refused to do it and only cleaned the fan and motor. What a mess, worst experience ever. Don't recommend AHS.

I've used AHS twice and they've been very efficient. The most recent one was for a plumbing issue. The contractor said it was the faucet and they had to change the shut-off valves underneath the sink. The servicewoman that came and did the work was pleasant. They didn't have the part so they had to come back two days later. But today, I found water down there again so I called up the company and they're coming on Thursday. Before that, there was an issue with a fan that's inside the freezer that circulates the cold air. That's why the icemaker wasn't making ice. The guy came and took the whole freezer apart. He replaced the fan and the icemaker has been working ever since.

Norrods Appliance Repair came out twice. The first time was to diagnose the issue. The refrigerator needed some new valves. But because of the supply chain, it took probably three weeks which we understood. A technician came out to replace it and he seemed like a very nice young man. He had to go to Lowe's to get the part then he installed the new valves and put the tube in. While he was back there, he said the piping was fragile. He put it back and it worked for two days. It felt like he was very rushed and seemed a bit stressed but he said he had just lost his grandfather. He gave me a card but I couldn't find it. I reached out to American Home Shield again but we haven't heard about a schedule yet to fix it. We have some damage on the floor that we'd like to fix, but we can't do that till the refrigerator is working.
It's been a godsend to have American Home Shield in our house. We're waiting for a sewer guy to come today. We just put in a new sewer last year but we're backed up again. It was $6,500 to put the new line in, and the plumber was through American Home Shield.

A-US Air called within 12 hours after we filed the request. They came at a time that they told me that they were going to be there. I asked them to give me a call an hour before arrival. They did that. They spent a good amount of time, but not too long, to figure out what was wrong with it. After that, they told me, “Okay, we have to check on their part.” They got back to me within an hour about the availability of the part, and the schedule for them to come back. They have several schedules for us to choose from, which is really convenient.
They were really polite and knowledgeable. The thing that they fixed doesn't seem to be an issue anymore. Two days after they fixed it, they gave us a call to check on how things were going. If I have to pay out of pocket myself, I will probably use them too, because this is a totally different experience from what we have with other people.
I have an issue with the lighting that has been ongoing. AHS sent the company, A to Z Electric, to come out and fix it. Went away for about three weeks and the problem resurfaced again. They said, "Is it okay if they send the same company?" I was like, “Okay, if they're gonna fix it for good this time.” But the company doesn't have a lot of availability. The way to schedule with them is inconvenient. When I call them, they don't answer the phone. They text me back. When I text them back, they say, “Oh, that availability is no longer available anymore.” We have to figure out other schedules.
It's not a major issue, that is why we didn't persist on sending the provider or getting them to come in to fix it right away. But we would love for things to get fixed, because we got charged every time that they have to come out. But this time, American Home Shield was so nice to say that because it's the same problem, even if over than 30 days, they're gonna waive the second call charge for us.
The problem with American Home Shield is my service call right now is $100. I want to see if I can change it to 75 or lower. Because this is a rental property and my tenant seems to be really picky on everything. So we call them quite a bit of time. In order to share in the service call cost, we have to wait until the end of our annual contract to share it.
I have three properties. My husband also has another in her home in San Francisco. We have been using AHS for many years and we've had a good experience, that's why we keep on renewing our contract. AHS covers what they say that they were going to cover when we have an issue. They explain to us what the issue is. If it's not under the warranty, we would like to know why, and we understand that not everything can be under the warranty.

The back porch GFI is a nightmare. The guy from New Dawn said the front one works, but you can't push the black button, so it's not right. I even had him come back, and it’s still not right. The second electrician came in there and flew through like it was nothing and like I did not matter. He wanted to tell me that everything was fine and he didn't have to fix anything, even though I told him the GFIs are not working. You can see New Dawn did something with the one on the back porch. The back section and the front section are separated, and some kind of tape is involved, and it’s not good.
Something happened during their visits that burned out the motherboard in the stove, and the dishwasher, and the garage door opener. I had to pay $75 to get somebody to come out there to assess the issue. Two of the motherboards were burnt out and we’re waiting for a part. But American Home Shield never sent me a person for the garage door opener. So I had two nightmares with electricity. I don’t like it at all. Neither one of the electricians were good. However, the plumber was good.
The guy that came by to assess the damage with the stove and the dryer was nice. But the New Dawn guy was five hours late and he was so tired when he got there, so he shouldn’t have even been working on my electricity. He said the job before me was very taxing. He even had more work after me, and he was going to do it, unfortunately. You could tell he was so tired, and he could hardly function. I paid $700 for this home warranty, plus $75 twice to different electricians, but my circuit panel is a nightmare. My dryer and my stove, and the garage opener are not working.

We've had American Home Shield every time we've purchased a new property. Recently, we had a plumbing problem. The kids' toilet has not been flushing since we moved to the house. A gentleman came over last week but whatever he did didn't fix the issue and whatever tool he used scratched the toilet bowl. It's a white toilet bowl and now it's full of scratches at the bottom and on the sides. There was another gentleman who came over this afternoon and said that they will be replacing the toilet bowl. He's hoping that that will fix the issue. He was wonderful. We're super happy with American Home Shield. The initial visit didn't fix the problem and but they had a follow up. They're super professional and going to be taking care of it. We have them do some other work around the house as well. I would recommend them.

Techs came for a claim I had and they were very professional. I was really impressed with them. Unfortunately, they couldn't do what they were asked to do. They didn't handle the Dacor exhaust fan. American Home Shield reassigned another vendor to come. It was Three J and they're coming on Wednesday morning. I am pleased with American Home Shield and everything is going along just fine. It's just nice to know that you have security with the warranty and that the job will get done. But it'd be nice if you didn't have to wait for half an hour on the phone. The nice feature is that I can use a callback, so I don't have to hang on the phone. Also, there's a problem with understanding the person on the other end of the phone periodically.

The compressor outside was extremely noisy. I filed a claim with AHS and got a response in three days. The contractor scheduled someone to come out once I received the call and the guy was nice and knowledgeable. But he said the compressor sounds like it's about to go but it's still technically working. There's nothing they can do until it breaks, so it wouldn't be covered.

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

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

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

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

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

My stovetop stopped working and Glyn's Appliance Repair Service came out. They had to order a part for one of the eyes on the stove but they fixed what they could when they came out so that we can continue using the stove until they brought back the other one. They did a great job. The only thing was I didn't know that I can call AHS for more than one appliance at a time. The door of the refrigerator broke and I didn't want to call in because that was $100 but I didn’t know I could’ve put it on the other claim.

I like AHS's professionalism. They've always referred really good people besides this last person. The company canceled and rescheduled. Then they said they came by and no one was home. They did not and I was home the entire day. So, I called them and said, “No, someone needs to come out. Because I've been sitting home all day. And I've been waiting over a month because you guys canceled and this was the rescheduled date.”
The next time they could do it was the day before or the day after Thanksgiving which was just ridiculous because I had been without a dishwasher for two months at that time. It was damaging my floors because the water would leak onto my floors when I wash dishes. Then there was a foul smell. But other than that, they have been really responsive with any of my concerns that I've had with the contractor people to come out. They’ve been very helpful. The last company, Appliance Professional was awesome. The tech couldn't fix my dishwasher because he needed some other part. So he was fine.

Initially, the first person that was assigned for the microwave didn't come. He didn't work out in the area where I live, so American Home Shield had to reassign the claim to Champs Construction. A repairman came out a couple of days after and fixed it. I got an email the same day to get a replacement microwave. When the hot water heater was leaking from the bottom, American Home Shield assigned the order that same day, and the contractor came out the next day. It was fixed fairly quickly.

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

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

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

I was down there with him while he was fixing it and he talked me through everything.

Make sure that you buy the best plan that covers the most stuff. Because you might have something that you think you won't need, and then that will be the only thing that breaks down. Always go for it. You'll pay a little more in the beginning, but it's worth it.

So, it was handled quickly. I just wish American Home Shield had a quicker process. One time, I had an issue with my AC and it took the tech almost a week before they could come out. And with certain things, I feel like there should be a process that can be escalated. They could have different providers that can come within 24 hours or 48 hours for certain instances. Other than that, American Home Shield has been very helpful for me. They helped me when I had a water heater go out. With the AC problem that I had that ended up being an electrical problem, it just took a long time to kind of fix it, but they assisted with that.

The claims process is cool because AHS has a system where they can call you and look at the issues you're having at the same time. The only issue that I have is that they don’t have a lot of people who are working to come out to fix things. So, it took a month for the tech to come out. People should ask a lot of questions before signing because we didn't do that previously and there were some fine line things that they didn't tell us about.

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

I called them and got nowhere with customer service. I had to call sales and told them I want out of my contract. They asked why and sent me to another department. That department was a bust and they sent me to another person. Her name was Cladia and she stated that they would have a answer in 24 hours and I would receive a phone call.
That time came and went so I called them again. Got the same basic run around until they got me to appliance replacement department. They again said they need 48 hours for an answer. I asked, "When is the drop dead time for a answer." Again I was told there is no deadline for answer. I asked if it could take another 3 or 6 months. The answer was, "Quite possible." Every time I have a repair I go through this same process. Customer service only has certain responses to questions. They cannot connect you to a supervisor. They say a supervisor will contact you in 24 hours. Twice I call back about supervisor when they don't call. The service people suck.

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

There was a lady that acted like she was going to sleep. It was difficult. When we finally got in touch with a man, it wasn't too long after they really got on top of it. Comfort Heating and Cooling was real nice. They came out and did the job. So far, the AC is operating good. But it's so difficult to get in touch with American Home Shield.

American Home Shield's claim process is fairly smooth in comparison to other companies. We recently had a leaking shower drain and the techs they sent did the repair the day that they came out. They were pretty professional and efficient at getting the job done. AHS has also improved in terms of the customer service and having a representative that understands your claim. When you call in and speak with someone, it's a little bit easier relaying information.

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

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

The claims submission process wasn't awful but when I had a garage door issue, it took almost two weeks to get it done. There was multiple rescheduling. I heard that American Home Shield was better than other companies but it was still bad. American Home Shield should have better customer service. They reschedule many times because the technicians couldn’t get to me and then having to spend another 500 in addition to the copay makes me think that I’m not going to renew next year.

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

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

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

I like American Home Shield. They've been quick to get me assistance. Everything worked out fine. I'm happy with them. I had a claim for the furnace and there's a fuse box in there and it was turned upside down, which caused this problem that all we were getting was auxiliary air and it wasn't heating. So the tech fixed the fuse box and it was back to heating.
We pay American Home Shield $50.99 a month. The only thing is that we have to pay $100 right up front when we'd make a request, which is fine. It pays for itself eventually because I know if they had to replace my heating system, it would have been very expensive. I've also had to call and make a request for when I had some problems under the sink, and they fixed that for me. I'm very glad we have American Home Shield because things aren't getting better.

It's really easy going through the claim process. I log on to the website and American Home Shield pretty much provides all the different types of symptoms that I may have. I click on it, hit okay, and I would be done in less than a minute. The only issue I may have is with the email they send out when the contractor is going to come out. I'm assuming maybe American Home Shield just contracts somebody out and they really don't know when the contractor is going to come out. But the contractor calls me and lets me know when. Other than that, everything else seems pretty seamless. I had a claim when my toilet and shower were backing up. A&M Plumbing came out and ran a snake and unclogged it in about 45 minutes.

The contractors are sort of hit and miss. It's especially true when it comes to heating and air conditioning guys. We've had to use HVAC contractors several times during our time with American Home Shield and sometimes they're great but sometimes they're really bad and they don't know what they're doing. Unfortunately, when the ones that don't know what they're doing show up, they can do more harm than good because these systems are very complicated. Also, what happens is, it's never a one-time call. The contractor comes, tries to fix the issue, and they get it sort of right. But then, I would have to call them back. That happens very frequently. But with plumbers, not so much.
We had a plumbing guy from Lockhart come last week and he was great. I mentioned a couple of things to him that needed to go on the work order and he took care of everything we needed. He came back the next day to finish up. Prior to that, I had a group called Discount Contractors come and they used to be great. They came to the house more than once. I had issues with drains or toilets and they got it all done. They would be in and out of here in no time at all.
But then all of a sudden, they started sending this really young kid who doesn't want to do work. I was having issues with the safety valve on my hot water tank. It kept leaking every once in a while. I also had a faucet in the kitchen that was relatively new that for whatever reason, stopped. One side of it wouldn't put out water. It was running very slow. The tech put a pressure gauge on my faucet outside and said my water pressure was really high. He said he couldn't fix any of the other issues because my water pressure was too high. He couldn't touch the water heater because I had substantially higher water pressure coming into the house and said that my faucet was damaged because of that high water pressure.
The water pressure didn't seem like it was unusually high to me but he said he had to change the pressure regulator valve, which is an expensive fix. He also said that for American Home Shield to be able to address future issues with my water heater, I have to have a pressure tank installed on my water heater. He said my water heater was not up to code because I don't have a pressure tank.
He didn't touch anything and put a note in with American Home Shield. I talked to American Home Shield and they said I have to have this $600 job that I have to pay for. The tech gave them an estimate for what it would cost to put in an expansion tank, which is nowhere near the right price. When Lockhart came out, I mentioned it to the tech. He looked at it and he said my water tank is perfectly fine. He called American Home Shield and he explained to them.

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

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

I had a heat pump issue. When I would turn my heater on, it would blow out cold air. I called AHS to tell them about the issue and I needed somebody to service my heat pump. They referred Sevier Climate Control and the tech came. He said that all I had to do was switch some wires around. He got my heater working and it was blowing out hot air. But a day or so after that technician left, it got cold and I turned my heater on. It was doing the same thing it did prior to him coming. I took pictures of my thermostat dropping down in degrees because the house was getting colder and colder.
I called AHS again and they referred the same company to come again. But instead of coming to me right away, they came the following Monday, which was three days later from the time I called. The technician, not aware that his company had already come, told me that I'm out of Freon. I immediately texted the previous guy that came and asked if he checked the Freon. He said he did, that I was full, and that he sent me a picture. But the new guy was saying that I'm completely out of Freon and that there's damage to my unit like somebody stole my Freon. While that technician was here, he had my AC constantly running and he would not let me turn it off. And I heard something that sounded like a generator.
Then, he went upstairs in my attic drilling something. The first tech said he would talk to the guy and next thing you know, that guy in the attic gets a phone call and was rushing out of my house really fast. While he was out there talking, I noticed that there was another man with him that I had never seen come in the house. The guy said it was his service manager. He didn't know why the first tech was saying there was Freon in there because there was no Freon in there. I asked if somebody was trying to mess with my unit and the guy played on the fact that I'm thinking that. He did all this damage to it and siphoned my Freon. I contacted AHS the same day it happened and said they need to send another guy out here to see what that man did to my unit.
Instead of AHS sending somebody out right away to inspect this man's work, they kept saying they need to investigate and talk to the service guy that just came out. For three weeks, I kept getting the runaround to American Home Shield. Since this guy left, I no longer have AC and I still don't have heat and it took three weeks for them to get in the resolution. By the time they called me back, I'm speaking to two different supervisors. Their solution was I got to pay another $75 for them to send another technician out and for that technician to see that this is not normal wear and tear. I just got the house inspected. The AC works and I have Freon and stuff in order for me to get the house.
I asked why I gotta pay $75 again. I told them I had the text messages and the picture of the results from their technician originally came out and they refused. They didn't even ask me for the proof. All they're trying to do is find a way not to help me get my heat pump fixed or give me Freon. I asked them for my money back. I paid close to $2,000 to get the whole full package for them to service everything in my home and instead of me getting all my money back, they only cut me a check for $900. They got all that $2,000 minus $900 plus $75 for each technician I've called and their hidden cost for service, application fees, and all this kind of stuff too. I'm still without money to get Freon in my home.
I had the information and AHS refused to get my proof to help their customer. Also, I didn't get to talk to an American person my whole time asking for a supervisor. Nobody was an American person until it came time for me to ask for my money back. I made like nine phone calls to these people, all foreigners, and they kept saying they couldn't transfer me to a supervisor. I have to wait up to 48 hours to receive a phone call from a supervisor and half the time, I still don't get a supervisor.

I had difficulty the last time I used American Home Shield two years ago. I just swept it under the rug because it wasn't worth the time and I couldn't get anybody on the phone. Compared to this time, I could. So this time was a better experience. One of the switches of my breaker box kept tripping and it would turn two of the lights off in my house. The tech came out and said he changed the strip that it belonged to. It worked fine for a few hours. The next day, it started again. I tried calling the tech directly. I left three messages. He wouldn't return my call. That was when I decided to call American Home Shield. The process they're doing is great because I got someone on the phone, and I did this Saturday. So hopefully, they would answer their phones and get their customer satisfied.

My ice maker quit making ice and the tech who came out was prompt. A piece of ice got back there and froze up against them. It was a simple fix and the ice maker is working back fine like it was. I've submitted things to American Home Shield over the years and they were all good. They replaced my microwave. I pay AHS $75 and if it’s to my disadvantage, it doesn’t sound great. But if it is, it’s wonderful.

The deductible is not that cheap and I feel like we shouldn't pay any deductible because we pay monthly but it's worth it. The guy who came out for a claim was very professional. He was very fast and fixed the issue right away.

Submitting a claim with AHS was pretty easy. But when I'm talking to their agents, some of them don't understand what I'm trying to say. Also, when I had a claim and I paid $100, they brought out the person and he told me that he couldn't do anything for me. So, I've spent a lot of money in the last month having people come out, but then they would say I would need somebody else.
I was trying to get somebody to come out and fix the ceiling, but the techs who came out didn't do tiles that were not covered under that. Then, I had to get a commercial plumber to come out before I knew how American Home Shield worked. They recommended that somebody come out and caulk around the tub and the shower. So, AHS sent me a plumber and they said they don't do that and that I needed a tile person. So, I never got that fixed. Aside from that, somebody came out for my fireplace, but I found out it's a heater. So, I paid $100, but they don't cover heaters. I was a little bit frustrated with AHS but I got a couple of other things done. They rekeyed my door, which was excellent, then a guy did my garage door and he was wonderful. Everything has been working perfectly since he came out. He replaced what needed to be replaced and he was courteous and professional.

Most of the techs I’ve dealt with have been good. But the original people that American Home Shield sent for our range didn’t even know how to install it. So, they had to send another guy more local. AHS could improve on some of their communication. When they set up something with somebody, they should have a little input from that person as well. If we're not getting contact from the people or whoever AHS is sending, we can at least talk to them but oftentimes, once they send them, they don't have any idea what the people are doing. But other than that, AHS does an excellent job as far as responding when you call. You can get ahold of them fairly quickly and it's not a big runaround.

The website is easy. You just have to have your account number. When you put that in, the site directs you which way you want to go if you're looking to upgrade your plan or file a claim. I have a Maytag dishwasher and when the dishes were turned face down, they weren't getting clean. The techs could have come the very next day but because of my work schedule, I had to plan it four or five days out. The techs were great. The first guy called me and told me what time he would get here. He told me he was on his way, and then I got a text verifying that the tech was also on the way. He was on time. The second second gentleman called me and he wasn't as friendly. He didn't really give me a time and just told me he'd be there sometime during the day. He wasn't as nearly as planned out and coordinated as the first guy.
The techs looked at the sprayer and told me it was driven by water pressure and that calcium deposits had clogged up all of the openings. So, they put in a request to find a part and I got that part in the mail less than a week later. Then they scheduled to come back and put the part in on November 24th. AHS is definitely needed if you have any kind of older home. It puts your mind at ease and lets you know that you're not going to go bankrupt if something happens at the house.

My neighbor had AHS and he was telling me that any time that something broke, the job was good and it wasn't expensive. Recently, the furnace was on, but it would never cut off when it reaches a certain temperature. It would just constantly stay on. We called the technician back and he adjusted it. That was what he said he did the first time - he adjusted it. AHS is very professional and their contractors come out as soon as possible. Compared to the pandemic with everybody putting you on hold for months and months, that was very good timing.

The first two vendors couldn't fix the issue of the microwave that was not powering up. There was the same issue about three weeks after they fixed it. It requires a special tool to remove the microwave out of that existing condition where it's installed. They know this but they didn't bring a dolly to pull it out of the cabinet, so they couldn't do anything. There were a couple of repeat calls in the same issue for not having the proper tools with them. There was a lot of wait time in between because they didn't have the right tools. All said and done, it took five months, which is not good. But I was impressed with the last guy. He came prepared and knew what he was doing. He read this wiring schematic and took care of it.
American Home Shield should hire somebody that's a reputable company to take care of these affairs. I've been paying them with a smile just so we can have this peace of mind. But I had to go buy a tabletop microwave to accommodate for the five months that we were waiting. I should be compensated for it. They should let me go for one to two months for the inconvenience.

I have dealt with American Home Shield for years and they've been good to me. I appreciate their communication and would recommend them. They save me the trouble ‘cause I don't have to go and research people. They have done that part, so I can trust that they're gonna send a quality and knowledgeable person out, and somebody that’s been vetted. I've had electrical issues, a water heater issue, and an AC issue. It looked like a car that's been in an accident a thousand times, but they still made it work.
Sevier Climate Control came out when the house wasn’t cooling off. They were really good about communicating. I asked them to please give me an hour cushion so I could get to the house, and they did. I got a text message as well as an email. The guy who came out was fairly friendly. He looked at the unit and said it was something with the circuit board. He said we had to order the part but he made it come on. He handled his business and explained everything to me. Within a week, we got the part in, he came back, put the part in, and we were good. The only issue I've had was for the heater issue where I want them to get the whole unit replaced without replacing the one part that's broken. But it's gonna have to be what it is until the other parts break.

I had a toilet that was stopped up and a leaky faucet. The contractor fixed both but the communication was what bothered me. It seemed like I was pursuing them to do a follow up because nobody was calling me. When the plumber came, he fixed the toilet off the top. The faucet was a little bit more of an issue because he didn't know why it was leaking. When he figured it out, he had to get the part. He said as soon as he had the part, he would come back and fix it. For two weeks, I was the one calling asking them if they were coming back.
When American Home Shield has somebody coming out to your house, they don't set up the appointment for you. You have to call that contractor and set up the appointment yourself. Since I knew that already and when I called American Home Shield and was put on hold, I thought of going ahead and calling the plumbing company myself. When I called them, they said, "The part came in. We'll go ahead and send the plumber out to your house."
Once that call was complete, not only did the plumbing company sent me an email saying my appointment had been set up but also all of a sudden American Home Shield sent the same text and email saying somebody was coming out to my house to fix the issue. But if I hadn't called, I wouldn't have heard from anybody. American Home Shield failed me in that aspect. Also, when I called, they said the service was closed out. That was where American Home Shield slacked with me because they should have kept the call open and communicated with me to make me feel that I have not been forgotten. It shouldn't be closed out because the faucet wasn't fixed.

A repairman had the AC issue fixed in 20 minutes. Something had come loose near where the fan is mounted on the outside unit. But I'm not pleased with American Home Shield. The send out whoever they want every time. There's this one company called 3 Boys Appliances. They came out here five times and didn't fix anything. Each service call was $75. I told American Home Shield not to send those people back to my house.
I've also paid 13 times for service calls on my refrigerator for the same problem. That's $975. I could have bought a new refrigerator by now. The issue has something to do with the water dispenser/icemaker because they're all part of the same system. It leaks water out onto the bottom of the inside of the refrigerator, then it spills over and out onto the floor. It's not every day, but it's all the time. You never know when it's gonna happen. The bottom of my refrigerator is full of water right now. American Home Shield told me I can't initiate anything. It has to come from the service techs. They have to tell American Home Shield that it cannot be repaired. I talked to the owner of the service company and she said she was going to push the issue, that they can't repair the refrigerator. But I haven't heard anything from American Home Shield about it and that was three weeks ago.

Every time we've had an issue or a question, it's always been answered and/or handled. Recently, the toilets were backing up, so there was a clog. When I called, the AHS rep said, "I'll put the service in. Get a tech out there." I asked about how long she thought that would take and she said, "You should probably get a call Saturday, maybe Sunday at the latest." She asked, "Is that okay?" I said, "It's an emergency because we can't really take a shower or do laundry, do anything like that because I'm worried that it's just gonna back up and then cause more damage." She said she'd give me a callback. I said sure. So, she gave me a callback. She called somebody, got ahold of somebody, and had somebody out there Saturday morning.
