    I had to have three different vendors through American Home Shield to get my laundry machine fixed. They called Whirlpool out and Whirlpool wouldn't even give a proper answer. Then E&C came out and they came through. They were pretty easy to work with and they worked with American Home Shield to figure out a replacement plan for me.

    But I have difficulty getting people to understand the problems that we're going through. A lot of the reps don't speak English or are not really good at English so there's a communication barrier. Trying to get somebody in the States to talk to is difficult or they won't escalate to a manager. I was working on this laundry machine repair all the way from May and it just got addressed in November. Also, American Home Shield doesn't cover all repairs as they say they do. There's a lot of lingo in their contract. If you have to get your AC repaired, they don't cover anything but the unit. I wasn't aware of that until I had to get my AC repaired and I had to cover the Freon cost.

    We were getting a handyman to put boards up in the attic and the gentleman at Handyman.com wanted pictures of the attic, so he could give me an estimate. My son saw the pan that the water fills up into, there was water up under there on the wood by the heat pump. We called American Home Shield then the contractor called and told me that they would be at my home within an hour, and they came a bit earlier. It was Anthony and another young man, and they were very efficient. Anthony explained to me what they were going to do and after they finished the job, they showed me what they did. They went up in the attic and flushed the lines then they went on the side of the house to show me the calcium deposits that came through. The service was very professional and I would recommend them.

    I usually have very good experiences with American Home Shield. There have been times for other repairs in our house that have not gone well but the one where Wicker repaired two dripping faucets went very smoothly. Everything was very professional. I had a very good experience with the rep. Sometimes I don't know the contractor's name when I call to set up a service. But this time, I did. And I knew when they would be calling and arranging for the service. AHS has been a very good service to have with a new home.

    I had a great experience with American Home Shield. The guy came here when he was supposed to and fixed the problem. The water wouldn’t stop from running and he told me what was wrong, went out to his truck, and it was not even 10 minutes. He was in and out. Also, the plug that goes into the tank at the bottom gets worn out after a while, and he replaced that.

    I love American Home Shield. It was very simple to put in the claim, and it was done so quickly and efficiently. This is the first time that I've used this and it's a no-brainer. People pay so much for repair people just come out and take a look at an issue, so the one-time fee that we're paying here more than takes care of anything that we could possibly need to have done. I totally would recommend it to anybody.

    Sometime in July, I got the new contract from AHS because it was coming up in August and the price went up. So, I called them and I asked why. The guy told me that the rates of the contractors they use have gone up, so they had to go up on the price. But he said they would like to keep me as a customer, so he was going to drop my bill back down. The price was going to be 57.99 and he said he dropped it down to 50.99. And it was for the agreement from 8/26/21 to 8/25/22. Bu when I called again because I wanted to add in the electronics package, somebody told me that that information was not put in their records. I was so frustrated until it was pathetic, but I was thinking that maybe I needed to wait until August when my contract starts up again then I'd call them back.

    In the meantime, I got a new bill for 56.99 again and they were saying that they didn't see where the guy I talked to had made this adjustment But I got a new contract agreement with 50.99 on it and they couldn't explain that. I then asked adding the electronic package on and they said they could add it on but I'd have to pay the whole amount and it wouldn't take effect until 2022. So, I've got to pay you this entire amount for 200 and something dollars and it wouldn't take place. So, I called back because when you call back, you get somebody different every time. I talked to this girl and she said she could add the electronic package on starting September 26th of this year and my bill was going to go to 68.99. I said that was fine. But she called me back and said she wasn't able to do that. That was a mistake and I told her that not to add the electronic package on anymore as I didn't want it.

    Then, I had a claim for my hot water heater that started leaking. I called AHS and they sent this company out called Action Mechanical Services. And when they told me that was who it was going to be, I went on the Better Business Bureau to check everybody out. Action Mechanical Services had all kinds of complaints. Then, I talked to a relative of mine and she said they came to her house, and they were terrible. They didn't believe the COVID was real and they didn't want to wear any masks. So, when the guy came out here, I asked if he had a mask and he said he didn't need it. He said he had COVID and he already had his vaccination. He then looked at the hot water heater, took a picture, and was here for about five minutes. That company was awful and I don't ever want them again.

    At another time, my faucet on the outside broke where my husband couldn't cut the water off. Then, the other one in the back of the house is leaking. So, I put in a claim online for the faucets. But Action Mechanical popped up as my contractor, so I called AHS and told them that I didn't want them to come. But when I called, the representative said that they don't cover our faucets outside. But I told him that my sister that lives over in Jennings, Missouri said that they fixed hers. He then told me to hold on and I could barely understand him either, but he was better that the previous rep I talked to. When he came back, he confirmed that they do not cover the faucets on the outside. So, I told him no to take that $100 out of my account because as soon as you call or place a service online, they immediately take that $100. So, they canceled the claim and they did not take the $100.

    After that, I got an email from American Home Shield saying that I needed to contact them about my service request as soon as possible. So, I called and I got this young lady who I could not understand at all. She was saying that our part was going to be $800 but I didn't understand what it was for. And we went on and on until she finally said that they could just give us a pay-out. I told her to send me what they were going to pay for the hot water heater and they sent me a check for $596, which did not pay for my hot water heater. So, we went to another company and AHS said that whoever we were going to use, we got to send them their complete invoice or they'd see what they did because now, I would be covering this water heater. So, I sent that to them and they sent me the little $596 that wasn't enough to pay for the hot water heater.

    I also had to call AHS when my furnace wouldn't cut on and they didn't send that Action Mechanical out. It was another company called Budget Air Conditioning Heating and Plumbing and they were really good. The ladies in the office where very professional and they had good customer service. The guy that came out said it was the motor and he put a new one in. He also put his mask on and we talked about that before they came. I asked if their technician had a mask and their rep said he did. She also said they wanted to make sure that no one in our home was sick and I told her that I'd have on a mask too. They were very nice and courteous. Everything went well and the furnace worked really well until Friday. But they put it in on November 1st and Friday was November 13th.

    That Friday, the house was cold and my husband had even turned the thermostat up to 85 to get the furnace to come on but it wouldn't. So, I called AHS and they didn't charge me again. Their rep said that I wouldn't get charged $100 because this was what they called a recall. And they were going to have the same people, which is Budget Heating and Cooling. So, I'm waiting on them today.

    All in all, the biggest issue I had with AHS was having several different people telling me something different about me trying to add on the electronics package and with my monthly bill. It was just so confusing. But I haven't canceled and I'm going to keep them because I have family members that have them and they haven't had any issues.

    With the provider I had before, you can call your own people to come out and you have to pay for the service, then they will reimburse you for part of it. That happened with my washer. To get it fixed was going to cost $600 and they only wanted to pay 400. I don't need anything like that and wondered what would happen if I don't have all that money upfront. That was when my sister said that with American Home Shield, you pay your deductible and they send somebody out. Then they just take care of it. So, I said I was going to switch to them. Then, I talked to my sister-in-law, she has American Home Shield and she said they had to buy her a new stove and she didn't have any issues. So, that's why I went to American Home Shield and I haven't had a real issue with them yet. So far, it seems like things have been working pretty good and I would refer them to someone.

    There was a stoppage in the toilet and I got through to American Home Shield, which is a feat in itself. It's very difficult to get through. I couldn't get through the line. I had to wait on hold for 45 minutes for somebody to come on to submit the request, which I did. The techs came out and did a decent job. Overall, AHS is very hard to get in touch with. Also, they sent me the worst plumber ever at one point in time, which I have been in a lawsuit with for three years. That's SWAT Plumbing.

    AHS sent them and then they said, "We don't do this. We'll do that, but we won't do this." I had to have that portion done anyway, and so I contacted them to do it. They dug a terrible gaping hole in part of my slab and then wouldn't take care of it. It went on for months. I didn't pay them, and so they sued me. I sued them back. So, it's still in litigation. Except for SWAT Plumbing, which was terrible, most of the contractors have been quite acceptable. It's just going through the bureaucracy of American Home Shield and contact with them that is very frustrating.

But this time around, when I had to make an appointment to do the winter checkup, I couldn't make the appointment on the website like it said. I had to call AHS and found out I had to call the contractor directly. When I made the other appointments in the past, it was just a matter of doing it on the website very easily.

    For my recent claim with AHS, the techs came earlier with my air conditioning. They said it was a fuse. About two months later, they had to come back. The compressor had gone out and had to have all my Freon replaced. But all in all, they were good because they came, did what they had to do and I had no issues. They were on time when they said they were gonna be there. Since I've had AHS, I've had nothing but a good experience. However, I'd like to be able to speak to a person more so.

    The light on the exhaust fan wasn't coming on and the motor wasn't running. I did a claim with American Home Shield and the guy who came was friendly and showed up on time. He replaced the motor and fixed the issue. I had such a positive experience with this one, but for the other claim for the dryer, I was having all type of issues. Every time I call, nobody picks up. I've left several messages. I am wondering who are these companies that American Home Shield is contracting with that you can't call them during normal business hours and get somebody?

    The guy who came and repaired it the first time replaced the thermostat in the dryer and it's been working fine for the past three years. He also told me the dryer vent was fine. Now I'm having the same issue. I called American Home Shield and they contracted a company. The company never got with me. I called the company and they said they didn't have a claim for me. I had to call American Home Shield and they said, "We didn't dispatch that company yet. It looks like they're busy. Let us find you a new company.” They found me a new company. I called the guy and he asked, "Where's your washer and dryer?” I told him it was on the second floor. He said, "I know what the issue is already. Your vents may be clogged.” I told him that was not the issue.

    I wasn't home when they came out and they told my wife that the vent is clogged and I had to get a professional vent cleaner to make the dryer get hot. They closed the case. I called American Home Shield and they told me the service was completed. It shouldn't be completed because the guy never checked anything else. Now I'm going back and forth with trying to get my dryer fixed. I called this morning and the rep said, “We just tried to call them and left them a message for them to call us. When they get in around 9 o'clock, can you call them and let them know?” I told her I'm paying for a service. American Home Shield should call the contractor, find out what the problem is, then call me back. The rep said they'd call me back after they speak to the service company. I’m out of $150, and my dryer still isn't fixed. It's frustrating and I was thinking about canceling American Home Shield.

    In July, my AC unit went out and the company that American Home Shield hired took about a month to come out. They're about three hours away from where I live. So, they're not even in town and they'd have to make trips when they could down here to diagnose it. They said the issue was a compressor. But the unit was over 15 years old. I don't even think I can find this part. So they lifted up to American Home Shield. Then American Home Shield took about another month and a half and they finally found a compressor. The AC people said that they were gonna highly recommend getting the whole unit replaced, but they didn't. Three months later was when it finally got fixed.

    My second claim was my refrigerator, which I am still waiting for to get fixed. This has been going on for two months. American Home Shield got somebody who was about six hours away from where I live to come out. Once they came out, they told me what I needed and that they’re gonna ship me the parts. They shipped me the parts and when the tech finally came out to install them, the parts were so beat up and he couldn't install them. The compressor’s ears were bent. The hoses that go to the compressor were also bent. He tried to bend them back and it broke off. So, on top of that, they had to order another one. Now, this is the third time they've rescheduled me to get it done. I was supposed to have it done Monday but they didn't come out.

    I had a couple of recent things with American Home Shield. The first claim did not go so well. The motor died on my ceiling fan and they were supposed to replace it, but I got a lot of runaround with them. The engineer that looked at the ceiling fan sent the report in to them. They were supposed to either issue me a similar ceiling fan, a plain white one, or compensate me for the ceiling fan based on what the engineer thought the worth of that fan would be. I got neither, so that is still open. I ended up buying another ceiling fan, so I'm sending the receipt back to them. But they said they're only gonna compensate me a certain amount of money. My ceiling fan was $300, but they're only gonna compensate me a third of that. That is not good. The latest incident was my HVACs went out, and I called them up. They subcontracted a company to come and replace my HVAC systems, and Bennett Air was fantastic.

    I most recently had a washing machine claim. A little over a month ago, we started having problems with some of the control buttons. I called American Home Shield and they sent a technician out here. Initially, he couldn't find the problem because it worked fine when he was here. He told us to give it a couple of days then call him if it was still acting up. We called him, he came back out, and the problem presented itself to him but he couldn't get it to work either. He told us to let him do some research to see if they could get the part. He came back and said that the parts are no longer made and he couldn't them. That was when he contacted American Home Shield to say that the washer couldn't be repaired. Calvary Appliances Repair did a good job. The guy we talked to was Martin and he kept us informed. He gave us an update to say he submitted everything to American Home Shield.

    I feel good about most of the contractors. Back in February, we had a problem with our dishwasher and the technician had to order a part. He came back out, fixed it, and we had no issues. It's worthwhile to sign up for American Home Shield and use them. I've had them for 21 years and in all cases, they were able to do something, either they fixed it or something got replaced.

    Whenever I call and speak to the reps, I can't understand what they're saying. Home Shield employs a lot of people with very heavy accents and it's very difficult for me to relay my issues with them. For the most part, they're reading some sort of feedback to give me that they put up on a monitor and it's so obvious. When I asked them a question, they told me to standby, and they'd type in something, and then they were just reading it. I've actually hung up and tried to call back to get somebody different. Even if I get another person, I can't hear them, they're very hard to deal with, and they don't relate to what's going on. It's very frustrating when you have an issue and when you're dealing with somebody. It's no fault to them, that's just who they are, but that's just one thing.

    I had an issue with a HVAC company where I told them that I didn't want that contractor because of the issue I had and that I wanted someone else to come out. The representative I spoke to told me that I should just go along with it because I already had an open contract. With the tone and cadence of his voice, it was very obvious that he didn't care. I didn't like that at all.

    With my recent claim, I have a two-unit home then my first unit broke down, and it was handled by Nova HVAC, LLC. A week later, my second unit went down. I called Home Shield and they sent out Precision Engineering. They came at the time they said they were going to come, diagnosed the issue, were in and out within an hour, and my heating has been working ever since we've dealt with them.

    My husband thought that when he called American Home Shield and requested that a plumber be sent out, that they put that order in and that they would send a plumber to our house. So, we had to go four more days without being able to take showers or flush the toilets. I kept telling him he needed to call. He finally got ahold of someone. They sent him a link and he was supposed to go to that link and request somebody to come. So, it was put off on him to do that part and he didn't understand that. So, that was his frustration, which made me mad because when I got home from work, I expected that the clog would be cleaned. And I had to go for more days without being able to use our water. It was two weeks of ongoing process. When the guys got here, they were wonderful.

    The Sears tech came out the first time because the freezer and refrigerator weren't cold enough. He put some Freon and ordered a part. Then, he came back out two weeks later and took the part out of the box and it was kind of damaged. He didn't feel comfortable using it because it had been creased like it can leak. When we moved the refrigerator out, we noticed a puddle underneath the refrigerator, which I hadn't seen in all of my wood floors and it was very concerning. The drawer where the vegetables are had all water underneath it. He pulled something else out and there was another part that needed to be replaced.

    He put a claim in with AHS and the best line of action was to do a replacement unit. I've been given paperwork for a replacement unit. The guy that came out was really helpful both times and he was right on time. I like who AHS is contracting with. Also, I'm a Realtor and AHS is kind of my go-to product now.

Though, I was lucky that the weather was not that bad that we needed the AC. If it was in the middle of the summer, it would have been very painful. Apart from that, everything was very smooth.

    I liked the level of coverage that American Home Shield offered. They offered things that the other ones didn't. I filed a claim online for both the dishwasher and the microwave. When the contractor came out to do the dishwasher, they repaired it but it didn't work. They came out again a week later, and the guy said, “Well, it can't be repaired. We're going to replace it.” So I put in for a replacement. The first time the replacement came out, my shut-off valve was not working so they couldn't install it. And the dishwasher that they originally would deliver was damaged so they sent a new one out. And when the guys came out with a new one, that was when they told me, “Oh, it's not gonna fit here” and that somebody would call me back to reschedule for it to fit. Those guys weren't very good.

    Another contractor came out to do my microwave and that went smoothly. When they were here, I asked them if they could do the dishwasher installation. The tech said, “I can, but you have to call American Home Shield.” So I was on the phone with AHS for 45 minutes trying to get that done. The tech said, “You know what? By the time you get through to them, I can have it done.” So he went ahead and did it, and he did a very good job. I would recommend AHS.

    My washer stopped spinning. When I first called in, the guy was so patient with me and he took the time to listen to what I'm saying. I appreciated that. He addressed the issue. The representative from Sears changed the agitator and the sprockets at the bottom to turn the agitator. We used the washer for two weeks and then it stopped again. I went online to try to use the app to have AHS come back and they charged me $100. I'm like, “Well, that's wrong because this is the same issue because it' not working. They just came out here.” So, I redid it and then I said it was a recall. I called AHS and they canceled both of the orders and the representative rescheduled Sears to come back out. But it's still showing in the bank that AHS hasn't replaced my $100 as of yet.

    The same rep came and got under the washer. He was like, “It's the motor and something else. And this is why the agitator had initially stopped working the first time.” Then he said, “Man, you know, you may as well let it go. It's not worth it.”. I called AHS right away and let them know. He called AHS as well. I threw the washer away, went to Badcock, and bought another one. Then, I called AHS again and let them know.

    Brittany, the rep, was very helpful. She gave me a link and I uploaded a receipt of the purchase of the new washing machine. She told me it could take several weeks before I get reimbursed with a check. I haven't gotten the check as of yet. Other than that, I like the service that AHS provides. I don't mind paying the premium for the Platinum Plan. If there's one higher, I would get that.

    I've had American Home Shield for almost 30 years and we've met some good people as well as some people that were amazingly bad. During the ice storm, they sent a plumber who didn't repair anything, charged us, brought his kid with him, and made a sexual innuendo. He left my water running too. I called in and said, “These people are horrible,” but I still had to pay the co-pay, and I had to get somebody else to come. It was awful. AHS should have given me my $75 back because I had to call and pay for Benjamin Franklin's Plumbing and that cost me $300 just to get them to walk in my house. American Home Shield also sent some people out that attached wires in my AC and heat and it burned up my unit. We only use people they send out, and it wasn't taken care of properly. We got in a big fight, and we had to buy a new air conditioner, which cost us five grand.

    On the other hand, American Home Shield has also sent Cross Electric, which was amazing. The recent AC heat guy was amazing as well. My AC heat was doing nothing, and the man said there was a switch that did something. He had to go get a part and he took care of it. He was very nice and professional, and I would use him a million times compared to some of the idiots that American Home Shield sent out here. Sometimes they don't know who they're sending, and they send unqualified people, but of all the companies out there doing the extra home protection, they're the best.

    I had a pool pump issue so I filed a claim and someone was in touch with me within a day. But there was a little bit of a wait until the contractor could come out and inspect the pool pump. Then, they had to do a replacement and there was a two-week wait on that but it is what it is. Everybody's having supply chain issues at the moment.

    I don't feel real good about American Home Shield's service. Their customer service stinks. You can't understand most of the representatives. If you have something wrong in your house, you want to be able to understand them well enough to find out when they’re going to send someone out to get it fixed. From what I understand, they're in the Philippines, and they're not the nicest people when you get them on the phone. I've had one guy even hang up on me. When they send out the service tech that you want, the service from him is good. But they argue and argue and argue that they don't want to send that tech out. It's almost time for me to renew my warranty plan and I'm not sure I'm going to stay with American Home Shield. I'd really like for them to get their customer service back in the US where we can understand them.

    When I called American Home Shield for my refrigerator, they weren't going to send someone out for a week. I told them it was a refrigerator and it needs to be fixed. So they arranged for a technician. But they wouldn't give the job to the guy who normally works on my refrigerator. They were gonna send it to Sears. But Sears was going to wait a week and a half before they even called me for an appointment and then they told me they were a week out from being able to come and look at my refrigerator. When I called American Home Shield and explained that, they said, “Well, we did it within our guidelines.”

    I had to call and call and call American Home Shield to get the guy who normally works on my refrigerator to come out. He knew the refrigerator. He knew where I lived. He was familiar with everything and I wanted him to come out. But American Home Shield wouldn't do it. One lady was so rude that she was not going to give it to that guy that I was requesting. So I waited a while, called back, and got a different person. I talked to her about changing the technician that was going to come out and she said, “Oh, absolutely.” She switched it and the guy was here that afternoon.

    When I get an email or a paper bill to renew my subscription, there's a dollar amount on it. When I call to make the payment, they give me a discount. But about two weeks later, I get a nasty gram saying I still owe on my policy. I call American Home Shield back and I tell them, “Hey, I paid what I was told to pay.” But they told me it was the wrong amount. So I ended up paying about $40 more than what the original agent told me. They told me that the agent gave me a wrong number.

    We were not having any water pressure and everything from shower to faucet was really low. And sometimes, there was nothing coming out at all. But apparently, it was just a bad water regulator and from what I've read online, it needed to be changed every three to five years. The reps that AHS sent out were able to change that and now, we’ve got strong water pressure. We also got no problems since they've since changed that out. The techs were very professional, on time. and they reached out to me to give me a heads up that they were coming by.

    I love American Home Shield’s service. Their efficiency in getting a contractor out here is beneficial. I find the copay and the annual membership are reasonable, considering we have an older house and a lot of things continue to break. I've had issues with some of the contractors and I have called American Home Shield back and said, “Do not send them out here. I want somebody different.” They have obliged. Watertight is the best. They get 5 stars from me. They came for a pool issue and they were competent, expedient and very kind. Who AHS is contracted with in terms of their service people is, unfortunately, a trial and error, but they just need to pay attention to the customer's feedback about who those service repair people are. Overall, my only objection is sometimes the calls are outsourced to another country. I want to keep everything in America.

    I filed a claim with AHS for my water heater because it was leaking slightly and the tech said I needed a new water heater. I asked him if it was covered and he said it was not up to code. He said he'd have to charge me separately for that or for whatever American Home Shield didn't cover. So, they came, fixed it, and it’s been fine since. I was also going to file a claim for my computer because it's not working well. I have the electronics package, so a couple of weeks ago, I called American Home Shield. But they said I should call Allstate for that. So, I called Allstate and they said they couldn't find my account. They said they needed proof of it, so I sent them the PDF contract. They said it doesn't say it on there, so I asked them to look up my account number. But they said they couldn't find me at all. I then called American Home Shield and they told me to just give them the number.

    So I've been doing that for weeks and going the back and forth between both of them. And neither of them would talk to each other about it. American Home Shield sent me a new contract with the updated information in it because apparently, all I needed was a PDF. But I don't know why they can't call each other to find the account I'm registered for. All in all, my experience with AHS hasn't been great. There was also a bunch of messes up with my account where they've charged me a few times, but I had no idea. They charged my card $240 randomly, then I got a random charge of $7. They said that I was supposed to be paying this much but I was quoted a different amount. Then I talked to a bunch of people and everyone just kept telling me the same thing. I just don't understand how I'm getting charged $20 extra.

    Overall, I understand the concept and I like the idea of the warranty. But I feel like a lot of people I've talked to are not helpful. I just get the runaround a lot and people give me very generic answers. Also, when I asked a lot of questions when I was signing up for the packages, they said that everything was covered with the package. So I was confused when American Plumbing came out and they said that certain stuff were not covered as I didn't have them in the policy. If I had known that, I would have opted for another package that covered everything. So I thought I was getting guaranteed something and everything that I've been guaranteed has not happened.

    American Home Shield is not easy to work with. My refrigerator died at the beginning of the pandemic and they cashed me out for way too little money to purchase a replacement refrigerator. That was frustrating. Also, sometimes the quality of work hasn't been great. Recently, someone came out 'cause my disposal wasn't working and it turns out that they probably didn't need to come out. I had to pay $75 for no work to be done.

    The call center is terrible. I managed to track down the phone number of a woman who works in the administration so she could help me with the call center that often times it's people in a different country and they have no idea about home repairs. American Home Shield should get a different call center and communicate more effectively. I'm not satisfied with them and I wouldn't recommend them.

    My experience with AHS has not been very good at all. The first issue I had was that my dishwasher was leaking, not drying the dishes and not cleaning up. I sent the request and it took AHS more than a week for the guy to respond to me. And then he came almost 10 days later. He said, “No, your machine is not fixable. It’s leaking. I will send the request with the American Home Shield to replace it.”

    I waited for another week and never heard from anybody. I called them back and they're like, “We apologize, I will get back to you tomorrow. I'll make sure your request is processed.” The next day and two days later, nobody called. Then I called back again and then again, same person, same story. It took me a month and a half calling every single day to get the dishwasher. Everything is so frustrating up to my head. I was like, “Screw this. I’m wasting too much of my time.”

    Finally, the dishwasher was approved. It took almost two months. The one I had was not available and AHS gave me options. I picked one anyways and three weeks later, I called back again to get an update of what's going on and the guy I spoke with said, “Oh! Your dishwasher is not approved. Your request is closed.” The guy didn't know what he was talking about. I just hung up on him. I called the appliance department because it was already approved then. They said, “Yeah. You're going to get your new dishwasher next week.”

    In the meantime, the dishwasher was leaking, water was on the floor and it messed up my cabinet. Before I realized it, water was dripping to the basement. Then, there was another leak issue because of that. So I called for the leak. The next person, TMD Plumbing, responded the next day and came back two days later. They were very on top of things. Also, they kept saying that all the water is coming from the dishwasher. TMD provided great service and I'm very happy with them.

    Every time I called, AHS had no clue what happened and they cannot pull up any record. Whatever the service they provide, they have zero idea what they do. I never in my life had such a bad service. Finally, it’s all done now. But it's not a happy situation. With all the damage that has been done to my floor and to the basement with the leaks, I'm going to have to spend a lot of money. The cabinet got messed up too. Also, I can't explain it to the reps. If I tell them, they do not understand. Apparently, they speak very good English but they cannot comprehend the problem and what I'm talking about. It's very limited on the way they train. I wish they bring some services back to the US.

    Having American Home Shield is a love-hate type of thing. Some things get done correctly, and some things are shoddy work. With our microwave, they had me do a virtual appointment. With that, they ordered a part then scheduled someone to come out, and the guy said, "This is the completely wrong part." I still haven't heard back for when that's going to get fixed. In the past, AHS had someone do the seal on the dishwasher twice, and it was still flooding out. I gave up with that and just tried to figure out how to fix it myself because they do just the bare minimum of anything. I didn't want to pay another $75 to have somebody come out as well.

    I'm paying for American Home Shield every month, and I have to pay to have someone come out. I almost think, "Should I just get rid of this and just pay outright for brand-new everything or something?" It'd be a lot cheaper than paying the fee every month and paying $75 every time someone comes out then they don't have the right part and have to do it again, or they don't do it correctly, like with the dishwasher seal. There have been some great things though. When we had a problem with the garbage disposal, that guy was amazing. He did awesome and even showed me tricks of what I can do in the future. That was wonderful.

    I tried to file a claim via the website but it would not work. It kept giving me an error like, "Go ahead to schedule," and it would say that I would have to put in my credit card, but it wouldn't give me an option to update my card. But my card is on file. American Home Shield charges me every month. So, I end up having to call in order to make the claim.

    The claim went well in terms of it ended well. But getting the contractor out there took over a week. And AHS always said, somebody will contact me. And they said the company tried to get into contact with me and I haven't answered, but they never reached out to me. So, I called Foster's. That was how I got the information, and they came out. But they said they couldn't get out there. I made the claim on a Thursday, Foster's came out the next Friday. But once Foster's got out there, they were great. The tech said, "Here's your problem." It turned out to be a simple fix. The something was clogged with a piece of a bowl that had broken off.

    The same thing happened when my water heater went out. It took two weeks to get someone out. In the past, I've had air conditioning trouble and it took a week. I called AHS and said, "This is ridiculous. I can just call an appliance person and get him out here the next day. I appreciate the value of your service. But to me, waiting a week to not have a dishwasher doesn't work for me. So can I just cancel my service?" They said, "No, no, no. We'll cut the service fee in half." So, instead of paying a $100 service fee, they only made me pay 50. But I still want to cancel because it really is of no use to me to have to wait so long to get services done.

    You're lucky if anybody even contacts you within 48 hours to make an appointment. They also made me do a video call where I had to show them the serial number of my dishwasher and what the problem was and the error code, which I thought was great. When I called them, they asked what was wrong with my dishwasher. But I said, "I did a whole video thing. You don't know?" "No, we don't know what's wrong with it." "I gave them all the codes. We did a video. They made me take pictures. Why did they do all that if they don't give that information to you?" It's frustrating.

    Also, with their service with my water heater, their guy came out and said, "I can't just replace your water heater. I have to make all these code upgrades and it's gonna cost you like $1,800 outside of American Home Shield." I said, "Are you insane? Why would I pay you $1,800 when I just need a new water heater?" "We have to reroute this and that." "There was nothing wrong with this when the house was built. Why do I have to do it now?" I took the payout and we went and bought a water heater and had it installed.

    The same thing happened with the AC. AHS couldn't even get anybody out. They told me to call another service company because it happened in the summer. All of their people were backed up. I waited three weeks but no one came. Then they said, "Just call someone else." So, I called out Sears and they gave me an estimate and told me it would be $3,400 to replace my system. And AHS said, "That's way beyond what we cover. And so, we'll call out our guy." So, I had to wait another week or two. Their people came out and said the same thing, "We have to do this, this, this, and this in order to make it up to code, and then it's going to cost you out of pocket again all this money." I said my house did not have central air when I bought it. I added it. So, it was all up to code. They said, "Call this number and American Home Shield will give you a payout." They paid me $1,100, then I went and paid Sears $3,400 to fix it.

    So, in both cases, which I almost canceled again, but AHS said, "You can just get a payout." They told me my out-of-pocket cost to change my water heater would be $1,800 or they could pay me $500 as a payout. The water heater cost $500. But they said that in order for them to install the water heater, they had to reroute pipes. So, they skip ways to make it so they don't have to pay as much for the claim. "Here's a cashout amount," rather than getting the full system fixed like it should have been.

    I had a problem with my furnace. It wouldn't kick on. The fan would work but we couldn't get the heat to come out. The techs contacted me within 24 hours after I submitted the claim with AHS. The tech called me ahead of time and told me he was on his way. When he knocked on the door, I knew who it was. He was able to figure it out right away.

    I had a wall mount oven that was a little old that when it stopped working and I called AHS and they sent Sears out. They realized right away that they would not be able to get the part that it needed. American Home Shield was gonna provide me with a new wall mount oven. But they were back-ordered because of COVID. I contacted them in January and I didn't hear back from them at all until June. I had gone all that time without an oven. They said, “If you could find one on your own because it's still back-ordered, we can either give you a check, or you can find out where there is one and we'll pay for it.”

    The problem was they only gave me $1,048 and all wall mount ovens are quite a bit higher than that. Financially, I could not replace it. They did not give me enough and they weren’t able to provide me with one. They gave me the $1,000 and I used it to buy a freestanding oven stove because my stovetop wasn’t working great either.

    The only time that I was very disappointed wasn’t so much stuff, but still because I knew about the pandemic and I understood that. But I have an old dryer and I had to call them because it was not working. When the guy got here, he said, “You’ve got an old dryer.” He didn’t do anything, suggest anything. It's still running, but it's obvious to me that it got a bad belt because I can hear it going and it's very loud. It stops quite often through the cycle and then restarts. Besides that, I like them.

    The first time we ever used AHS, we ended up getting a AC unit. That worked out really well for us. But then, I had some issues with my washing machine, where it ended up taking a week for the people to come out. When they came out, they couldn't fix it. They had to go back, tell American Home Shield what was going on. American Home Shield had to get the part and then send it to them. It ended up taking quite a while to get appliances fixed.

    My worst experience was with my dishwasher. A company came out that American Home Shield sent out. They thought they knew what the problem was and went back, let American Home Shield know, got the part and then came out. But that wasn't it. Thanksgiving and Christmas came and went. Another company I ended up calling, "What's going on?" They had to send a new company out. That company came out three times and they finally got it fixed. But they replaced the whole thing, it seemed like because the company put parts on it. Also, the monthly payment went up from 30 something dollars. For a while, I've been paying $56. Four months ago, it jumped up to $87. Big difference. I called AHS to cancel it and they just gave me a runaround with that. The guy said, "We'll give you two months free." I was like, Okay, I'll stay with them.

    I dropped AHS because I could not stand the fact that every time I call customer service, I got connected to someone overseas. Their English was poor and it took me forever to speak to someone in America. AHS used to be really good but when people need customer service, they should be able to talk to somebody in the United States who speaks their language and there's not this big barrier between them. Other than that, the contractors were separate from American Home Shield and I wouldn't say they were great, but they were okay.

    The dishwasher wasn't cleaning the dishes. The tech saw that whatever part that went out didn't allow the water to stay in the dishwasher. It would just come in and go out. The tech did a good job on it. I'm glad we have American Home Shield. We weren't happy with them last month. But we have only had one bad experience out of all these years.

    Our hot water heater quit working. So, we called AHS and they sent out Infinite Plumbing. The guy looked at it and saw that it wasn't working and that the temperature thing was turned to the highest setting. He said that was what caused the water heater to go out. So, he called AHS to tell what happened and they said that it would not be covered because that was considered misuse and abuse. The only problem is we used AHS to service that water heater in 2017. All I knew was it was in the attic. I have never seen a water heater and my husband and I have never touched it. It was The Lindsay Company that did that and turned it up too high and caused it to break before its time because it was not repairable.

    So, I called back and tried to tell AHS that I understand it was because it was turned up too high, but it was someone that they sent that made it go out within the four years. It went on and on and AHS insisted on getting a second opinion. So, someone from some other plumbing company came out and I knew second opinion meant another $75. That's fine. But that guy said the same thing - it was because it was turned up too high.

    The four people that we talked to at AHS tried to make it seem like we were disputing the two plumbers' diagnosis. I agreed with the first person that was sent out here. But no one listened to me. It got very frustrating. I talked to two reps and my husband talked to two, and we just gave up and spent over $2,000 to buy a new water heater. We were being blamed for it. I just wanted someone to acknowledge that The Lindsay Company that they sent out in 2017 didn't set it properly and it caused it to break. We considered leaving after that ordeal last month because it was not acceptable. Other than that, we have been very happy with AHS. Great company.

He knew his stuff and was very good at his job. Unfortunately, he did not have the needed part with him. He made logical suggestions that would save me time and trouble. He actually showed me how to fix the dryer and he helped me order the part off of Amazon. The part came in the next morning. The dryer has been fixed and it is working beautifully. I pay a lot of money each year for AHS. The deductible almost made the home warranty not worth it. But I like the peace of mind. When I needed them, I could call out and make a claim on my appliance.

    When we bought a home 15 years ago, we had an American Home Shield warranty. Our washer went out after we moved in and we got a new one. It was awesome. They called me. I got it. We moved into this house and we've been here two months. It's super easy to request for service. For my first claim, For Him Services replaced the disposal, and that was done great. I have a second claim. I was in the kitchen two weeks ago and walked to the washer. I thought, “That sounds crazy.” I was watching it and it had six minutes and it completely shut off. We went through this whole process and it has been a nightmare.

    American Home Shield should be more aware of what the qualifications of the repairmen that they send are. The first repair person did two no-shows. The second one came but they don't work on our kind of washing machine made by LG. They had to refer to a third one who is on their second appointment with me. The first time, they didn’t schedule. They just called and said, “Well, we have you. We're going to come today.” “Well, I'm at work. Obviously, there's no one there.” They said, “Oh, I'm sorry. We thought we had you on our schedule.” They scheduled for today between 10:00 and 2:00, and at 2:30, they still weren't there.

    The repairman is going to come after 3:30 when I get home and I hope it gets worked out. Before now, I would have recommended American Home Shield because of my previous experience, but at this point, I would definitely not make that strong of a recommendation. This is what I have for this year of new homeownership, then I'm done for a while.

    Home Shield's customer service is cordial. They tell me who they are and explain. They ask me what my challenge is, I explain it to them, and they take care of it. The techs that I had were cordial too and they respected my household. They came in with their mask on and their booties on their feet to do what they need to do. They get the job done and they make suggestions that need to be done. The timeframe is very good when techs come but they have to travel so far. Maybe Home Shield could work out a contract with some people who live near. Other than that, I'd advise others to utilize Home Shield. The greatest part of it is if you do the maintenance that you're supposed to do when you're supposed to do them, you won't have serious challenges.

It was a weekend so the contractor was gonna notify me once they were on their way, which they did. There were constant updates about it that it had been received and it was in process. The plumber explained the process to me while he was working on it, and he also explained what was needed. He had everything there. He replaced the valve, and that stopped the leak. It prevented a lot of future problems. For him to come out when they said he was gonna be there was great.

    The claim process of AHS is easy. I just don't like how American Home Shield tries to get out of repairs or replacement that need to be made. Instead, they look for the bottom dollar and try to shortcut their way through fixing things. I've had problems with my seven-year-old pool pump and they replaced it with a 12-year-old refurbished pool pump. Then it went out within months. They tried to replace it again with another 10-year-old refurbished one rather than just doing the right thing and replacing it with a new unit. My AC unit is quite old and they just put a Band-Aid on that as well. But with the dishwasher and clothes dryer, they were good.

    I had a couple of claims that I needed to make this year. American Home Shield was really difficult to deal with. It was a hassle to run back and forth between contractors. The first bad experience was when I had a plumbing leak. American Home Shield got a contractor out to repair it and they did a horrible job. They didn't fix the toilet leak. It was sloppy work and they left a mess. They walked out even before I even had a chance to go look at their work.

    I had a big hassle with American Home Shield trying to get them to make it right. They wanted to keep sending the same plumber out there. I said, "No. They were so awful. I don't want them back out. I want you to send someone else out." I had to fight with them and threaten to cancel my contract before they finally agreed to send another plumber out. This second plumber looked at the toilet leak and agreed that it was horrible. They fixed that well.

    I had a second claim later in the year. That was difficult to deal with because it wasn't really clear whether it was an air conditioning or a plumbing problem. American Home Sheild sent out a plumber and the plumber looked at it and said it was an air conditioning problem. The air conditioner people come out and said it was not the AC. It kept bouncing back and forth with the contractors. They were not really deeply figuring it out. One of them finally spent a little time and diagnosed the issue better. He concluded it was an air conditioning problem and he showed me until I believed it. I then had to get on the phone with American Home Shield and told them, "I got an air conditioning problem, but I don't really trust the contractor that you sent out. So I hired a different contractor." American Home Shield gave me a cash payout they calculated up. They sent a check out right away.

    I had other claims with them throughout the years that have gone fine. American Home Shield sent somebody out that fixed the issue right away and fixed it right. When everything works fine, it's wonderful. But when it doesn't, American Home Shield can be very difficult to deal with. Another thing is when you usually have an issue and get on the phone with customer service, their call center is not here in America and it can be very difficult to communicate. There are some language barrier issues sometimes with the overseas call centers they're using. I decided after those two incidents this year that I was going to cancel my contract with American Home Shield.

    The first piece that they said based off of the code and what the technician was seeing was the drain pump. Once that was done and it didn't fix the initial issue, the technician explained what the next step in the troubleshooting process was and walked us through all that.

They got in touch with Southern Appliance, and they gave me a call and let me know what day they were coming out. They did exactly what they said they were gonna do.

    The heating and air conditioning came out in the bathroom that was connected to the bedroom, but there was no air or heat coming out in one of my offside bedrooms. Someone came out in August for a claim we had and they did nothing. The tech went up in the attic, came back, and told me they didn't do that kind of work. I said, "You need to write American Home Shield and let them know so they can get another person out here to work on it." I looked in my file on my online account and they showed that the work had been completed.

    I went back to American Home Shield and told them the work was not completed. I requested another visit. Sometime later, they sent the same people out. The tech drove up in my yard. I was a little late and they were waiting on me. When I got in the yard, he got out, and I asked why he was here. He asked if it was the same problem and I said yes. He wouldn't be abe to do anything about that so he got back in his truck and drove off.

    I called American Home Shield and they showed the claim to have been completed again. Every time I tried to call in and I asked to speak to a supervisor, they told me I could not. They would tell me the same thing. I finally wrote two letters. I wrote one to the corporate headquarters and that one came back. I sent the other letter to a PO box in Memphis, Tennessee. I then spoke to a lady at American Home Shield and she gave me another contractor. She was very helpful. She called me almost daily until the issue was solved. She wanted to make sure that the contractor contacted me. She told me she would call me again when they came to see if the unit was working.

    The tech was very professional and he did what he could to try to find the problem. He went over and above because he even checked my filters. He told me how they ran it and it was all hooked up with my den. He said that when the air and heat is blowing in my dining room, it takes away from some of the pressure pushing the air into the bedroom. He told me if I close off one of the vents in the den, it would make more heat going into the bedroom. I did feel heat coming out. The only thing is my heat is still not coming out like it needs to.

    We were doing some remodeling in the house and I noticed that it didn't feel as cool as it had been. The central air had an issue, so we had a service person come on out from Max Cool Air Conditioning. He stayed with it until they diagnosed the issue, which was a leak in one of the copper lines and let all the Freon escape. Unbeknownst, it became dry and it kept on trying to cool. It caused the compressor to go out. The service person fixed the leak in one of the copper lines and put some gas in it. However, the unit still wasn't able to get it to kick in, so they had to submit for a compressor. It was approved within 24 hours then they came out the next day and installed it. They were professionals, and everything's been fine since. I hated it that I had to make a claim within a month of having the policy, but American Home Shield was great. They responded, took care of the issue and everyone was happy.

    Last year, my smoke alarms went out and I turned my claim in to AHS. They got somebody right out to fix it, but I waited a couple of weeks and nobody showed. I finally called them and they said that that company doesn't come out here. But nobody told me a thing about it. The rep said that she'd reschedule somebody else and she sent me the thing in the email. I looked at it and I called a company in Portland. They said they don't go out here either and that they didn't know why AHS was bothering them with my claim. In the end, I paid to have the repairs done myself out of my own pocket because they were smoke alarms.

    After that, AHS sent me an outrageous bill for 900 and some dollars for a year of service. But I told them outright to drop it because I didn't want it, and I just let the thing lapse. I got ahold of a girl who said that since I was an old customer, I could get the contract for 500 for the same exact coverage. And that was the only reason I signed up for this year. But if they start jacking the price up again on me next year, they can stuff it. I'm not going to pay that kind of money for that kind of coverage. They have lousy service and they're not like they used to be. They’ve slipped considerably.

    Other than that, when I had a problem with a faucet, it took three months to get the parts and get the repair done. It was because of the transportation and supply problems during covid and it was not American Home Shield's fault. But I’d already paid my 100 deductible upfront and they stood by that even after I’d canceled them. They didn't try to weasel out of that so, that could go in the positive column.

    We've had them American Home Shield not just for this house, but also for the previous one, and we've been extremely satisfied. I understand American Home Shield's business model and it works. They make most their money on referral. They don't make a whole lot of money off of selling the home warranty policy. The best thing for us is that it ensures that we get a good company to do the work. One of the things I've discovered is the people that do the work through American Home Shield are really good people. In fact, I just had a garbage disposal installed by a plumbing company and they were great.

    What we're really buying is somebody goes out and negotiates favorable terms with the people that do the work. Over the years, we had at least one air conditioner compressor, a dishwasher, a furnace, and a hot water heater replaced. Recently, we had a bad fitting on our water heater. We're in Madisonville, which is kind of a little small town. It's an hour away from any large town, so it's hard to get service work out here. But American Home Shield got somebody out pretty quick, and they did a great job.

He was really, really great. He was really professional and nice. It was a good experience. I really like what American Home Shield covers. They cover an array of things, and leaks are the main thing. We only had trouble once when we needed an electrician and American Home Shield couldn't find one. So they asked us to find one ourselves, which we never got around to doing that. Because we don't know any electricians and that was why we called them. I also had some trouble with the furnace. American Home Shield advertised that if something breaks, they will fix it. So my furnace broke and then they wanted me to pay around $3,000. It was a ridiculous amount of money to fix it.

    Our furnace wasn't working. I did the initial request and paid my $100. Then I made an appointment and it was about approximately a week to get the contractor to be able to come out which, especially in our area, was really good. We just had a slight miscommunication on who was calling who to confirm the time. But it all worked out great because I was going home for lunch anyway. They said they were on their way and I was only 10 minutes away from work.

    The guy came out, looked it over, and did the repair. I’m from out of state and I wasn't familiar with heat pumps. He took a couple minutes explaining how they work and what to watch for in the winter time, like when the heat pump gets below zero, they will give off a steam and it'll look like smoke, so I know the stuff is not on fire. They went above and beyond with their explanation and totally stop me from freaking out later this winter. If we were to buy our next house, we'll throw American Home Shield on there. It's 100 bucks and whatever's on the list gets taken care of.

    I have a home warranty with American Home Shield. My Stove/Range large burner started shooting flames and stating on high temperature in October of 2020. I put in a service repair. Paid the $100 service fee and Sears Appliance came out. After two months wait some repairs were done. In June of 2021 the same large burner started shooting flames and remaining on, on high temperature no matter how I try to turn it off. The oven also stopped working. I called and reported this to American Home Sheild. I was told that the service contract with Sears has been closed. I was told that I would have to open a new service contract and pay another $100 service fee for a new contractor to come out. I did this.

    Artic Appliance came out and did an estimate, back in the end of June. Almost six months later. Every month my monthly plan fee is being taken out of my account by AHS and no repair. I've been shuffled from the Escalation, to Authorization, to Customer Service and back around to the Technician about ten times each, after waiting on hold for over two hours at a time to speak with someone. Almost six months and still being shuffled around and around and around, with monthly fees being faithfully withdrawn and no repair. Six months. Six months. Six months.

The guy who came out to do the service never even checked my system. He said to tell American Home Shield that it was going to be more than it actually cost to fix it and that I wanted to reroute it.

    American Home Shield denied it because they said there was a crack in my plumbing. I said, “There's no way you can know there's a crack in my plumbing.

I told them I wanted a refund of the $100 but the rep said that they couldn't refund. I complained enough and they finally refunded me a portion of it ‘cause she said a portion of it went to the guy. It was a big mess and I wasn't happy about that. Also, it's been really hard to get in touch with a person.

    I was disappointed in the first call that we had out. It was supposed to have been for a “tune-up,” and the guy that American Home Shield sent should have found the problem. We had to pay $75 for this supposed tune-up and he didn't even do anything. Our heater completely went out and something was wrong with the circuit board, so the motor was running for hours. In order to make it stop, we had to unplug the unit.

    The last technician that came out said that it looked like, at some point, the circuit board had been exposed to moisture, so it wasn't making a good connection. It was totally fried, so he replaced the circuit board and it's been running fine since. This technician was very professional, nice, knowledgeable, explained things to us really well, and wasn't the least bit intrusive with us and the house. He was fantastic, so I have no complaints about the work that he did or the repair and it's continued to work.

    When they replaced one of the units, they replaced the pad of the insert for the water thing. They actually got it in black, and it was normally in silver, but the tech told me that that appliance was so old, and that was all he could get. He came back twice for the hood because the first control panel he bought was straight instead of curved. It needed a curve to fit the bow of the hood.

So the tech assured us to clean it really well and it should be fine. So it was more like a lesson learned kind of experience versus him has actually fixing anything. But it was still worth the $100 I paid for the tech to come out. I took the washer apart and cleaned it out. He showed me how to do it. And we have not had any issues with the staining of the clothes. We've also been able to wash the clothes over and get most of the stains out of the other clothing.

    The claims process was pretty quick, though it would have been quicker had I been home, but I was in the mountains when the tech called me. So there was poor communication, because I lost the call in the mountains. But other than that, AHS was great and I hope that I continue to have good service with them.

    I called American Home Shield for my air conditioner. I had this pest control company put some mesh around on the back for some rooms when getting in the house and they put some in on the pipes, so that was a legitimate complaint for the contractor. I chiseled it out and got it all cleared. Then the thermostat wire was broken. The tech said that one of the rodents evidently ate one of the wires, so that was a pre-existing condition and he couldn’t fix it, which wasn’t true because I started the program on September 11th and it wasn't until the middle of October that my air conditioning broke down. I wasn't too happy about that.

    American Home Shield said that if they could get another contractor, I'd have to pay another $100. If they had the same results, I'd still have to pay the next extra $100. So, my air conditioning is still not fixed and I’m alone. I’d like them to fix it. I don’t see where they have a right to say it was a pre-existing condition when it clearly was not. Now, I got to get another contractor on my own to come in and fix it, which is going to cost me a lot more than the $100 that I would have to pay with American Home Shield.

    They've been reliable and responsive. I had a furnace and a washing machine break in the last couple of weeks. Both of them broke a day apart and they sent technicians to replace the things and try to fix them. However, they use an overseas customer service company to handle calls and sometimes, it's a bit hard to understand folks on the other end of the phone. But I'd recommend AHS. They're good. I'm happy with them.

    We've had American Home Shield for a long time. The service of AHS has been very good. Their claims process has been very easy. The benefit of having them is if something breaks, they come out quickly and it's usually resolved. We pay a $75 service call and that's it. It's efficient and cost-effective.

    American Home Shield seems pretty convenient. We've had a couple little things that needed repair that we were able to get service on pretty quickly. Recently, the drain broke on the washing machine. It's doing it again so I need to call the guy back out. He said that it may not have fixed it so just to call him if there was an issue. But as far as American Home Shield, they got him out quickly so I'm happy with that service. The contractor contacted me that afternoon after I submitted the claim that morning.

    I am totally unsatisfied with AHS. First of all, I asked them to come out and do a dishwasher that does not clean my dishes. I've proved that to them by washing them and showing them that the grease was still on them. I paid $75 for that. They looked at it and did something that made it still not clean any of the dishes on the top rack. AHS got another person to come out. He said it probably needs a part or a new dishwasher.

    When I called American Home Shield yesterday about the third time, they said that the second person that came out from GE did not give a report. They couldn't come out until the report came back from them, which is not my fault. They said they would reach out to GE and get back to me. But, they couldn't reach GE. I haven't heard back from them.

    I also had a washing machine claim. I had them come out and they made me pay more than $75 for a washing machine. I had to pay $85, which was not anywhere in the contract. It only said $75. The tech never filed a report either from Sears. He contacted them via email because they wouldn't answer their phone to do the report. The Sears tech told me that it's meant to leak. That was the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. He showed me, “Here’s where this water is. This is the overflow.” At that point, I was dealing with some medical problems with my husband, so I couldn't fight with him right then and there.

    I called him back and I said I need a second opinion. He said, “If there's a second opinion and they come out and say the same thing, it'll cost you another $75.” I said I don't want to send in another $75 because it's ridiculous. I don't want the same guy coming back to me and telling me that I have to buy a pan to put under my washing machine because it leaks. I never heard of that. I called another company that had nothing to do with AHS, somebody that knows Maytag. They said they had never heard of that in their life.

    I also had a guy have to come out and clean my furnace, and they told me I had carbon monoxide leaking. I had AHS's techs come here for another $75. Now, I have spent 75, 75, and 85 and that guy told me, “It's not really that bad. There's nothing we can do.” I have paid AHS and all I've had is a runaround and no one has fixed anything.

    There was a leak on the roof. The tech came by and saw the problem. Then he had another job to work on, so he just said he'd be back at a later day. He came back three days later and fixed it. I had another claim about a small leak, and the plumber didn't really do anything about it. But that was more of the plumber’s fault than American Home Shield’s fault.

    The service of AHS has been fine. I’ve been happy with the service so far. My recent claim was for my washer and dryer. My dryer wasn't drying right. They got a part for it. They came and set it up. It took a little while to get the part. But he said, the parts for the washer were so expensive that it would be easier for him to just replace it. I just went ahead and went to Lowe's and picked one out, and then they reimbursed me. Baskett's Repair was the one that I had here working on anything and they’re always really great whenever I have a problem.

    We had our whole furnace replaced, and our washer and dryer worked on at the same time. Everybody was great about it. As far as American Home Shield goes, they were right on it and they sent technicians out right away. Everything was good. The technicians were very pleased with how long and fast things went along. It was just a short period of time. We only had to pay $750 towards the furnace. The guy that worked on the washer and dryer has to come back. But we didn't have to pay the $100 again because it was within a week that the washer and dryer were still making noises. So, he's gonna be here on Monday on his own.

    It's a better deal to be insured than to be having to bear a $2,000 water heater. Recently, Price Right Plumbing came for the water heater. The pipe leaked. The plumber checked everything on it said everything was fine. He was very polite and apologized that he couldn't figure out where the leak is coming from. He was there to look at the water heater and it would have had to be another ticket in for a water leak.

    Also, I had one or two incidents where it took ages for things to get done. It was during covid and people were very reluctant to go into people's homes. But a better follow up would have been better because I had to be proactive and make the calls when there is another technician coming out and I didn't hear anything back from American Home Shield.

    The tech from Appliance Solutions was very professional and nice. My dishwasher was not draining and the start button was not working all the time too. So, the guy unplugged the drain and got that all taken care of. Then, he ordered a new panel but it turns out the company didn't have it. So American Home Shield has to send me a new dishwasher instead.

    The tech that came for my dishwasher did very well. He was a very nice guy and he fixed it with no problems. He knew exactly what was wrong with it. He took care of it. The person before them that worked on my refrigerator was not good though. He was out here three times. Finally, I requested somebody else to come. Sometimes I get people that come here and I pay the $75 and they can't do anything. Then I'm just out $75. They should let us know ahead of time and not charge unless they actually do something. That's very frustrating when someone says, "That's not our problem. We don't cover that because it's hit by lightning or something."

    I'm thinking of dropping AHS when they come back around in January when I'm up. Because I pay $800 a year and I'm lucky if they come out once or twice. I could pay $800 and buy a new dishwasher or put it towards a brand new refrigerator. It doesn't make sense sometimes. They don't do anything for me. I have no problem replacing them with a different company if I feel that I have no attachment to them.

    I've been with American Home Shield for 35 years and in the last four years, it has been bad. I'm dissatisfied with them. They are fast to take our co-pay, but they are not fast getting the contractors out to us. When the dryer vent went out, they wanted to do a video feedback to talk to me about the dryer vent. I just wanted the heat element fixed. Also, my sewer got blocked and they could only do what is under the house. They don't go to the street. So, they sent a guy out, he tried to get me to buy $10,000 for the sewer repair. I called the Sewer District in our location and they said I had a block from one net to another, and I ended up paying $1,200.

    The air conditioner needed to be replaced for the last four years. I had to pay for Freon every year when contractors come out and service. Freon is now illegal in California. I don't even know how they are servicing it. I talked to the air conditioning people and they said, “Your air conditioner almost has to blow up before American Home Shield will cover it.”

    AHS gets contractors who have no experience. They pay so lousily that the only contractors that will work with them are brand-new contractors who have very little experience. If it wasn't for the fact that Fidelity wouldn't cover the air conditioner now because we know it's using Freon, I would switch and get rid of them. I have a few pieces of property. So, the one on Raj court, I'm not going to renew with them. Do not buy AHS' products.
