    We had an AC issue recently. There was some noise that was being made. I was satisfied with the service I received there. But when it comes to plumbing, it's a disaster. They will not move from the one person they assigned and those people are totally overbooked. When a client is asking to have a different provider assigned and AHS knows that that assigned person is already booked for two weeks, AHS should attempt at least to get another provider on for them. But other than plumbing, I've had okay service.

    I've been with American Home Shield for 35 years and I have enjoyed their service. Everything has been great. With my home warranty, I don't have to buy an extended warranty when I buy new stuff. We're just moving into a house and it's 21 years old. I assume that things are gonna happen. We had a claim recently because when we had an inspection, the inspector said the water heater was just toast. It had a calcium buildup and the techs couldn't fix it.

    Generally, we have a good experience with American Home Shield. We had an issue with the AC and we needed to get a coil replaced. We ended up doing out of pocket because we really needed it. It was during summertime. We also had a claim where Astro Appliance came out and that one went very well. The technician was very friendly and professional. But we're a little upset right now because we're still trying to get our water tank upstairs repaired. It's been leaking and AHS asked for some proof that it's been going on for a long time. My husband talked to the insurance and we're trying to get the proof together about the water damage around the area. It's a little inconvenient but we're working on it and I'm sure they'll cooperate. We want to stay with AHS and not leave. It's good to keep and maintain the services.

    So far, the claim process of AHS has been good. I just have one issue with the calling-in process on one of my homes. It's a little difficult. I'm not sure how it got mixed up. One of my homes was registered under a different address. Whenever I would give them the identification number that was assigned to me, another home would come up under that. And I still don’t think that’s straightened out. This is anytime I tried to create a claim at my primary residence. But, with my other residence, that seems to go through and everything seems to be fine. We had a claim for my garage door recently. It seemed to be loose. The guy that came out explained why we were having an issue and said that that shouldn't be of any concern.

    We had an issue with our sump pump and it ended up going completely out. The technician that came to look at it said that a sump pump replacement was not covered by our warranty with AHS and he said that he tried to repair it. He just did what he could. But he also said that if it came down to fully repairing it, then we'd most likely have to just go through a regular service provider for that. Once we have the funds and the ability to be able to do that, we'll be looking to be able to get it repaired. All in all, things have been pretty good with AHS. Any time we've needed something, we've been able to call and get it resolved within the first couple of days.

    The most recent claim we had with AHS was a plumbing issue in the bathroom. I submitted the claim by phone. Within minutes, I got a notification that they identified a person to come out. The techs were efficient. They came in and unstopped the stoppage in the toilet and they left. They did an excellent job. The last several times I've contacted AHS, they immediately jumped on it and had someone come out and take care of the problem.

    American Home Shield sent Cost Cutters Appliance Repair for the exhaust fan on the range. I went to the AHS website and did the claim. It was pretty good. I received the contractor's name and number and who would be calling me. Cost Cutters did a good job. They fixed the problem. A piece of metal was in the way, and they moved the piece of metal out of the way. It started working perfect. Go for AHS. I've always had good experiences. They've always come through every time. I had used them in the past, and I never had any issues with them. So, I went back to them.

    The refrigerator handle on my freezer is broken. Home Shield contracted out the job to Universal. They got the part and a tech was supposed to come out last Friday. But on Thursday, they called me and said that no one was gonna come Friday because the guy called out he would come Saturday. I said okay and the schedule was set for the same time at 11:00 to 3:00.

    On Saturday morning, someone called me at 8:15 and said they wanted to make sure that somebody would be there because the tech was coming out. I said we would be there. 3:00 came and went so I called. Nobody answered the phone so I left a message. Somebody called me back within half an hour and said he was calling to reschedule my appointment. I asked why a tech didn't come that day and was told that someone called in morning to confirm and I didn't answer the phone. I said, "Excuse me, not only did I speak to someone, he sent me a confirmation email saying they would be there between 11:00 and 3:00, and then no one came."

    I needed an appointment so that person I was talking to gave me one for Thursday morning. I was going to be the first one on the list. But he never sent me a confirmation email. On Monday, I called and I was told that I was not in the book. I didn't have an appointment set up yet. Someone would call me in 48 hours to make an appointment. I called Home Shield to tell them what happened and the rep said she would call Universal. They could deal with her directly so that I wouldn't have to put up with the bother. Universal told the rep that the guy didn't come because he had an emergency. The Home Shield rep then never called me.

    On Wednesday, I called Universal back and the rep there said I was scheduled for the following morning and I was the first appointment. But I still had not gotten the confirmation email. He said that the scheduler just put it in his notes and not in the system." Yesterday morning, a tech came. He had the wrong handle to the door, he didn't have screws, and some other piece was missing. But the person I originally did the virtual call with looked at the door, got the serial number, and the model number. Now, they have to order the parts all over again. I also usually get a confirmation email saying, "Your parts have been ordered." I got nothing this time. I had a problem one other time and it was the same thing where people did not show when they were supposed to. But in the past, I had no problems.

    The AC was freezing up and it was blowing hot air. When the techs first called to set up an appointment, I told them that the day they wanted to come, I had a doctor's appointment. They said, "Okay. That's fine." I told them I needed to know what time they would come. I said I'd prefer early in the morning if possible. They said, "Okay. That should be fine. I'll let your tech know."

    The day of, they called and told me that they wouldn't be there till 2 o'clock. My appointment was at 2 o'clock, so I was having issues there. I called them but they said that they couldn't. I said okay. So I called my doctor's office and thankfully they had time to reschedule me. I went ahead and rescheduled it. My doctor's appointment was in the morning and their appointment was in the afternoon.

    As I was on my way to the doctor's office, they called me and said, "We're on our way to your house now." I told them that would not work for me. I already rescheduled. The tech said, "I was hoping you didn't reschedule." I said, "When I spoke with your person earlier, they said that you told them there was no way that you would be able to get to my house early in the morning." He said, "We were able to get through a few house calls fairly quickly. So we're able to come to your house now. We're on our way."

    I said, "I need something later because I'm on my way to the doctor's." They said, "Okay. We can go see the next person, skip you and go see the next person. And if we can get to you after that then great. We'll let you know whenever we're done." I went to my doctor's appointment and I got out of there. They ended up skipping me twice and then they finally ended up showing up. They were knowledgeable and they solved the issue fairly quickly. Luckily, it wasn't too bad.

    I had to change out the air filter. The tech tested my refrigerant to make sure it was where it needed to be. He said it was fine. I have dogs and he said, "You need to try and change this more often." He explained to me why it could be clogged was because of the dogs, especially because my return vent is so low. He also cleaned up my AC unit outside and he said that should take care of it. So far, so good. I haven't had any issues since.

    However, I've had issues in the past with people that AHS sent out doing a real ** job and just trying to get in and get out. I've called and complained about it to AHS. But then they kept sending people out, different companies, which really helped out a lot until I finally got one that really was patient. He did a thorough job and helped us out. It's been a love-hate relationship.

    I was drying some clothes and all of a sudden there was a really loud shrieking noise. I turned the dryer off right away and I didn't try turning it back on. Somebody in the household said maybe it was the belt. I called American Home Shield right away. They answered my call and they were very quick to tell me who would be taking care of the dryer. It was really interesting and very inventive that I used my camera and I was able to give them the numbers on the stickers. That was the first time I had someone do that and it was pretty cool that they were using that technique to get all the information that they needed. They wanted to know what kind of dryer it was and how long I had it. They were actually able to see inside the dryer.

    The contractor called me and made an appointment right away. When a tech then came out, he took the drum out altogether and oiled it. After that, the dryer started working and I've been using it since then. It's heating properly so I'm 100% satisfied. American Home Shield has been amazing since I've had them since I purchased my house in 2012. More women that are by themselves should take advantage of American Home Shield because they do a tremendous job. They're right there to take care of things immediately.

    We had three out of our four appliances in the kitchen that were broken and we ended up calling American Home Shield, and we had two different services. We had A&E Factory Service for the dishwasher and we had Nelson's that came out for the oven, and he did a fabulous job. We had a bit of a debacle because we were assigned to a different service repair place and they came out and they wanted us to take our range out into the middle of the kitchen. I told them I wasn't really comfortable doing that because it was all caulked in and we'd have to have a second repair done. We decided to part ways. So then, we transferred to Nelson. We didn't do anything and he fixed it in less than 45 minutes.

    My garbage disposal was leaking and I called American Home Shield and set up an appointment. Zeus Plumbing came out and fixed the problem. I always do the claim online and on weekdays, it takes no longer than 48 hours to get a contractor out. But on weekends, I have to wait till the following the business day. This isn’t my first time having AHS. It’s a very self-explanatory and easy process. So I will recommend it because you don't have to worry about the hassle of trying to find a contractor.

    American Home Shield's claim process is super simple and you don't have to fill out too much information. Once a tech gets assigned, they figure all that stuff out. It's user-friendly and easy to get scheduled. I really enjoy the service that American Home Shield provides. We used their service when the shower in the upstairs bathroom was leaking through the floor and through one of the light fixtures downstairs. When a technician came out, he found that the threading on the shower arm that comes out of the wall completely cracked off. The shower arm fell out right when we tried to take it off. That was where the leak was coming from.

    The technician replaced the shower arm and that seemed to fix the problem. Everything is working great right now and there is no more leak happening. The person who came out to inspect everything came back out after the leak was fixed and found that all the moisture in the ceiling was gone. Everything dried up really nicely.

    We went away for a couple of weeks and when we came back from the trip, we realized that there was less water in the sink and the shower in one of the bathrooms. Within three days, there was water in another bathroom. I also had a problem with one of the toilets that was running. The contraption inside needed to be changed because someone has to take the lid out to stop the water. Another one is something happened in my water heater. It had to be reset and we couldn't do it. We called American Home Shield, they sent a plumber and it was awesome. He just came here to work, and he solved the problem. This guy was amazing because I've had a lot of people who said, “Well, this is not inches. And I don't have the proper tools.” We have European plumbing and the sink is from Spain.

    I've never complained about companies and I never think poorly of people, but when they do a good job, I’m more than happy to say something. I called American Home Shield on the phone as well as the company where this man worked for. I told them, “You have no idea how lucky you are to have this man working for you”. We've had American Home Shield since 1996. We had them when we lived in New Jersey and now, we have them in Florida. I'm not exaggerating, but I've recommended them 50 times and 20 have gotten it.

    I wouldn't recommend AHS to anybody. Our experience with them has not been good. Early this year, my washing machine went out. The guy that came out to look at it said they didn't make the part that was needed anymore. I said, “Oh, good. Then it won’t take long for them to make a decision to replace it.” He said, “Oh, no. It'll take them a while.” Sure enough, two months I went without a washing machine. It was ridiculous. I had to send out my laundry to some company to do, send it back to me. That was unacceptable to me.

    The first year I had them, my dishwasher went out. Same thing. Took two months, at least. They don't want to spend the money to replace something, and that's obvious. So what most people would have done is just go out and buy a washing machine, I was told, and then they would have been free of having to replace it. But I wasn’t gonna do that. I had that warranty and I was going to use it. But I ended up having to wait.

    When there's a problem, they should respond to it instead of putting people off. I'd call them every week to check with the company. They would still say that they were waiting for the part. I said, “There's no part to wait on.” But it was like talking to the ball. I’d just hung up because I'd get tired of talking to them. They wouldn't listen to me.

    I've had great experiences with the several technicians that have come out for the claims I've had. They've always been very respectful and professional. When I get a good technician and if I have a problem that I know that same technician or that company does, I request that same company. That has worked out well. I'm not a shy person. I will ask for what I want so there's no confusion and people generally respond.

    I had a service request for an appliance repair recently and the issue was fixed. American Home Shield has been the best thing for me. I don't have to pay the full price for whatever repair that I need to be done, even though I know I'm paying so much every month and that equals so much a year. But the fact is it's easier for me to pay that small amount a month than for something big to happen and not to have a chunk of money at one time.

    Back in the day, when we were in the villages, AHS used to say repair or replace. And they were pretty much on top of everything to repair. But I did something very stupid. Right before we left there, our air conditioner went out and it was covered. And I had forgotten that I had American Home Shield. So, I bought a new air conditioner. I called them and I guess they won't do any coverage, after the fact. In this place, my garbage disposal went out. And again, because it was leaking all over the kitchen floor, I had to get it fixed right away. The plumber came and got me a new one. AHS said to me that once the job is done, I can't do a claim.

    Recently, we had a flood in our villa. I had a plumber come right away to stop the water. I called my homeowners insurance and they said they do not handle leaks. So then, I called American Home Shield and they said, “Yes, leaks are covered.” They sent out His and Hers Plumbing to stop the leak. They were excellent. The job they did looks great.

    But now it has turned into a nightmare and there's mold in our house. I'm at my wit's end because I have a lung disease. So, I can't go back into the house, even though the insurance company told me a couple of weeks ago that once there's running water in the toilet, that means your house is habitable. Almost a month later, we're not back in our house, and nothing's been done yet.

    We had Bennett Appliance come for a claim and they were fantastic. Their guy was very respectful of my husband's health situation. My husband has cancer and he's in treatment. When we asked that the guy please have his personal protective gear on, he did that. He didn't question or argue the point. He got his work done and cleaned up after himself. He had to order a part for a replacement. He explained to us what the problem was and how long it would take to get the part. He notified us when the part came in. He worked around my husband's medical appointment schedule. He then replaced the part quickly.

    We've had American Home Shield for many years and we've been always happy with the service they provide. But we were disappointed to find out that it costs the same now to cover our new home and new appliances as it did when we bought old homes with old appliances. We received an offer recently from a similar company and at the price that we used to pay when we had our last new home. As much as I hate the increase in the rates of American Home Shield, we've always had good service. We have always had a quick response, so we'll stay with American Home Shield.

    I wasn't too happy on the stove claim because I had to call American Home Shield twice then I had to pay twice. Maybe it was a little bit of my fault because I waited. I'm not gonna judge them on that issue. On the second time they came, the guy checked the AC and he replaced a capacitor. He was okay and was very knowledgeable. So far, so good.

    American Home Shield do keep the appointments. I just wish on emergencies like if somebody calls about the AC, they should at least get somebody to come the next day. On another stuff, I could wait two or three days but when it was hot outside, and I spent almost two and a half days with no AC, at least they could have gotten somebody to come the next day.

    We’ve had some plumbing repairs, and I was particularly impressed by Barlow Plumbing. The job that was really memorable was when we had a toilet in the hallway bathroom that needed to be reset. The technician was good. His name is Andrew and he did an incredibly professional and thorough job. I've never seen anybody work both knowledgeably and confidently. He reset a toilet that we have had to have reset over the many years we've had this house. I'd be surprised if it doesn't last another 5 or 10 years. That job he did, he knew what he was doing. He didn't just put a new ring on, bolt it down and go away. That was a good job, and they get an A-plus.

    The fellow from the electrical company that came by this last week did a super good job too. While he was here and at no charge to us or to American Home Shield, he quickly did some checks in the area where he was working. He tightened up a couple of wall outlets that were loose and hadn't been put up right. That's the kind of thoughtfulness when they're here that I really appreciate. They find things that aren't gonna be a future work order, and it saves us money. I’ve been quite pleased.

    The responses have also been rather quick. We weren't shut down on anything, to any real inconvenience. We haven't had any calls to American Home Shield in quite a long time, but things seem to come in bunches. We're paying attention to the property right now because we’re getting it ready for sale. My Realtor is gonna urge anyone who buys it to continue the coverage with American Home Shield because it's proven to be a good investment, and we're also thinking hard about adding a policy for our own home where we live.

    I used a different home warranty program and I gave them up for American Home Shield. The claim submission process is very straightforward and easy to do. The web application on your phone is very easy and simple. If anything, the confusion comes in with the provider. But the submission process is very solid. It would be nice though to be able to say I would prefer my vendors I've already used versus others. I had no problem with AJ Appliance Service and I've used them twice since the pandemic. The first time, it took them a very long time to get parts but that was an issue with the distributor. It was not AJ’s fault. They were very good and provided a tremendous amount of detail. It was almost too detailed but it was what they were supposed to do, and that was not a negative.

    One of the reasons why it's nice to have a home warranty is, it's very straightforward. You don't have to go find somebody nor haggle stuff. There was one time when I had to get a replacement done and it was difficult to get a follow up. But that was during COVID when everyone was breaking their stuff and having to get replacements done. Still, it felt like it disappeared a little bit into the ether. I spent $600 out of pocket to replace the washing machine and it took a while to get the claim processed appropriately. The agents that I spoke to were international so it was tough to get them on the phone, and there was a language issue. But it's not that out of hand from anything. That was from a customer service standpoint of what I would’ve preferred. I’d love if American Home Shield would lower their upfront rates. But you gotta pay them to keep them in business and it's probably fine. They should keep up the good work.

    I had a leaking water problem and dripping water from the main multi-valve. I called American Home Shield and Reflection Pools called me to find out what the issue was. I told them that I had filter material coming back into my pool and an issue with my filter as well. There were holes in a couple of the grid sets and the techs fixed it. Also, they replaced the top part of the multi-valve to fix the leak.

    Reflection Pools has been the principal company that has come. The only reason I keep my AHS warranty is because of companies like them. They are a small company that is highly professional. They send the same person who knows the pool and they always do good work. But what annoys me is that AHS used to have an option for me to say if I wanted the same company to come out. They removed that. They sent another company previously and it took them two attempts to fix the problem. Reflection Pools diagnosed it and got it fixed.

So my question to you is, why should I have to pay for Freon when that is a part of my contract?” I said, “You're going to only put so much Freon in it.

    Had I not protested, the young man was going to charge me $265. He said it was stipulated in the contract then I said, “Then you need to read it again.” I read the contract to him and he said, “Oh.” I said, “Well, call your company. I'm looking at what it says here on my contract.” I also called and told American Home Shield what was going on. They said, “No. You’re covered.” I said, “I know I am. I read on the contract where it says that I'm covered.”

    I've always dealt with American Home Shield and they're a good company. I dealt with them before when I had my home in California, and one of the reasons why I went back with them was because they stand behind their product and everything that they do for their customers. There was a leak in the AC valve and the Freon was leaking out. The AC completely froze up, and it was because of the size of the filter that was put in. We made the thickness thinner and that helped, but it still wasn't cooling. The last guy that came out and looked at it said that it looked like there was a hole in the tube. I was really glad he told me.

    I called American Home Shield back and told them that they needed to check that to make sure that the hole was sealed. The young man came back out and said, “Well, I'm glad you told me about that because that's exactly what it was. There was a hole that needed to be sealed up.” I said, “You didn't notice that when you first came out?” I'm wondering if I hadn't remembered what had happened the last time, if he would have caught that.

They remedied it down at the base, but they didn't remedy it all the way up through the top and it happened again. The prior year, they did the same thing. They do a great job. My concern was it took a few days for them to get there, depending upon the schedule. I called the company directly once they were appointed again and Johnny tried, but they were busy with other projects. I had to shut my AC down and it was three days before he got there, but it wasn't the worst-case scenario. Had it been earlier in the year, it might have been a disaster.

He said they couldn't do anything with the dishwasher so they were gonna have to replace it. That was all well and good. I got an email and a call from American Home Shield to go online and select a dishwasher. I did that. This was where a hiccup came in. I thought American Home Shield would coincide the delivery of the dishwasher and Appliance Network coming in to install it. I got a call from JB Hunt, the delivery company, that they were on their way with a dishwasher. At that time, I was not told anything about when the tech was gonna install it. The dishwasher is sitting in the dining room right now.

    I called Appliance Network and they had not received the order from American Home Shield to install. I called American Home Shield close to the weekend. They were trying to call Appliance Network. After 5:00, people go home here so American Home Shield never really got Appliance Network. I called Appliance Network back and asked them to contact American Home Shield. In the end, we got things together and they're on it now. I suggest though that when American Home Shield gets a service order and if that appliance has to be replaced, they should let whoever took that service order keep that and follow up on it. There was a glitch in that part. That aside, the service the home warranty provides is 100% excellent. On some days they have a hiccup and I'm okay with that.

It's just sometimes the timely manner in getting them out when it's a big issue. Also, if there's a problem, I've talked to American Home Shield several times, and I have trouble communicating with the people that are on the phone. The English language is not their first language. And they speak so fast that I couldn't figure out what they were trying to tell me. They get aggravated when I say, "Would you please just slow down just a little bit?" It's very hard when I call and I couldn't communicate. I've had it happen four times over the past several years.

    We get prompt service from American Home Shield when we call something in for repair. We get email notifications that we've opened a ticket. They're pretty prompt in assigning and giving us the name of the contractor who's going to be in touch. The contractor gets in touch pretty quickly. So, you'll have somebody easily within a week.

    We had an issue recently with our oven. The thermostat wasn't heating up. So, Sears came out and repaired that. They checked it out, they ordered the piece that they think they needed and it got sent here to the house. They tracked the whole thing. Once they received it, they set up an appointment when the technician would come in and repair the appliance. In terms of repairing and replacing parts, having AHS is very cost-efficient as opposed to having to either get a repairman in or thinking about buying a new appliance which is going to cost thousands of dollars.

    Highway Plumbing & Rooter came out and fixed one of my bathroom faucet. They did a good job. I was happy with the work. The faucet handles were like stuck. You couldn't move them and no water was coming out. The guy who originally looked at it said everything was rusted out and frozen in place. I called Home Shield and they said somebody will be contacting me to take care of my sink. That was when this company called me, and they sent a worker out. He verified, "Yeah. It's broke." Then about a week later, I called to see the status of my claim, and they said, "We're sending somebody out and they should be there tomorrow." They came and did a very good job. I'm okay working with Home Shield. It was well worth it.

    The heating contractor that I use is good. However, the waiting time to get someone is ridiculous. Sometimes, their website doesn't work and when you've updated things and have to call, it's a two-hour wait to get to someone. Also, the contractors are not available very quickly so you might be waiting a week to get things resolved. I used a different warranty company out of Florida and it was efficient and quicker. It was a two-day turnaround. I had AHS also in Kentucky and I had the same hold time issues. It might be that the contractors are overbooked.

    The tech that came out for the AC was very nice. He was at my house one other time. The AC made a very loud noise. He said a lot of times, when you have a power surge, it can make that noise. Then the next time if it continues to do that, he told me to turn it off and leave it off for 10 minutes and then turn it back on and let them know if it continues to do that. It made that noise one other time, and I did that, and then it worked. Everything's good.

    I responded to their 50th anniversary $125 off ad for a one year home warranty policy. Before buying, being "helped" on their phone line, I specifically asked: "My HVAC is over 20 years old.... will it be covered?" Their "cust serv rep" answered HVAC will be repaired or replaced. Here's the catch, when I made a claim for, yes, an HVAC break down, then AHS advises "in my contract" Freon is excluded less $10/pound. The "repair" AHS offers is they will charge me $100 claim deductible, $1800 Freon, and other various costs totaling over $2,000 out of pocket for my "covered" .... "repair"... of an out of date HVAC. I have had non-AHS related contractors out who advise me my equipment is NOT REPAIRABLE because the system cannot be tested for leaks or other breakdown issues without a compressor.... and forcing a customer to spend $2,000 to learn whether or not there are other issues with a 20 year old HVAC is non reasonable, non honest.

    AHS is a scam business. They FAILED to apply the offered discount forcing me to spend over 2 hours on their "cust. serv." phone line. Their "licensed contractor," is in the scam of getting thousands from AHS "insured" customers out of pocket before the unit can even be properly, professionally diagnosed for true wear and failure condition. After being forced to put thousands of dollars into an obsolete unit, then if the unit still doesn't work, it's another claim deductible, more run around, and probably just for some low ball "cashout." KEEP YOUR MONEY, DON'T BUY AHS, RUN!

    We had AHS and our AC unit broke June 2021. AHS assigned a vendor who NEVER SHOWED UP ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS for TWO weeks. Informed AHS and requested another vendor. AHS REFUSED to send anyone else. Finally the vendor shows up, turns off AC unit, says he'll be right back and LEAVES. NEVER CAME BACK. Through all this AHS still refused to send another vendor because the "no shows" never completed their ticket, therefore it shows them the AC repair company will be back. This was occurring over a 4 week time period. Meanwhile it's 90 degrees outside and 86 degrees inside our home and we have with small children. After the last call to AHS, and again them REFUSING to assign another vendor, we canceled our contract. THEN AHS stated they would "look" into the matter. Well, too late. And after all that AHS charged us a $49.95 cancellation fee. Never ever will I use them again!

    I've got another company that has been servicing the air conditioning units for two and a half years, which is how long we've had the beach house. I called them up and they came over and determined the problem with the upstairs unit was the fan sensor. Then I called American Home Shield and they sent their people out knowing what was wrong with the unit. Warren-Hay came out and they went upstairs and said that the issue was the fan sensor. They ordered the fan sensor and it came in last Friday. So they came back on Friday and had what they thought was the part. The guy went upstairs and said, "No, this part's not gonna work. It's not the right part." I talked to the man with Warren-Hay yesterday and he said he had the part in his truck. He assured me that he would be back down next Monday to put what he hopes is going to be the part that's going to make it work.

    My experience with American Home Shield is fine if I do all their work. I've also got another air condition system that had the same situation as the other unit before. The system downstairs started making some fan noise. So I called American Home Shield and they sent a company out. They came out and said, "No, we ain't working on that." So they left and that was when American Home Shield called Warren-Hay. Warren-Hay came out and said, "Well it's completely corroded. The fan bracket's gone." There was about a 14-day lapse between the time I called American Home Shield on the air conditioning system downstairs and when Warren-Hay finally came up and said they could get the part. We went 13 days with no air condition downstairs and American Home Shield didn't do anything. I canceled the service for the downstairs unit and told Warren-Hay to focus on the upstairs unit because that's where we live.

    Bottom line is I've got neither one of the air condition systems that work like they're supposed to. The one upstairs is completely shut down now and it has been for the week I've been gone because I did not feel comfortable leaving the fan blowing continuously. I paid American Home Shield 150 so far for two service visits, and one of them didn't do anything. So my initial opinion of American Home Shield is not very good. But the man with Warren-Hay was a heck of a nice guy. I'll probably go with him as far as servicing the air condition when all is said and done.

    I've had American Home Shield periodically. When I first bought my house, I had them and then, I moved. It’s a good thing to have if you don’t want to have any cost that hits you all of a sudden, as long as you keep good track and if you have good maintenance of your stuff. Like the commercial says, things break down. If you don’t have the extra money, it's hard to pay for some of the things. It is almost like an insurance policy. If you have a major occurrence, hopefully American Home Shield will pay for at least part of it. I like the home policies myself. I’ve only been with AHS, at this point, for about a year. The contractors came out for three minor things and it all worked out good. I’ve been very pleased, in general, with the experience so far.

    Precision Appliance came out for a microwave and they addressed it quickly. It was not turning on because it wasn't closing perfectly and the fellow had the part on the truck, which was very surprising. I was thinking he was gonna take an extra day or two to order the part. But he got me fixed up and running within 30 minutes. So, he was good and explained everything to me. I’m happy with it.

    My thermostat was just blank. There were no numbers on it. So, I put some batteries in it. It shouldn't need batteries. The tech found a clogged drain. Then he looked at the other parts of my air conditioner, and he told me to keep the pine straw and the leaves away from it. He was really good. He also recommended to get the ultraviolet light when I have the money. I will be calling AHS as soon as I have the money to do that because I do want that.

    It was amazing when I submitted this claim. I called AHS on a Sunday night, and Monday morning I got the call that the tech was on his way. So, I was thrilled. Everything is working great. I don't know what I would've done without AHS this year. Between the toilet and the air conditioning and everything else, it's been wonderful.

It was pretty much an easy fix and he said our piping isn't going to kill us like the other guy tried to tell us. He also fixed another problem that we had.

    Also, we had a new roof put on a couple of years ago and something got knocked off. We just put it on like it was supposed to be and the guy told us our ceiling was falling in.

    I've had AHS for two years so far. It's been great. It's been beneficial. I've had to use it twice and I appreciated it both times I had it. Recently, I had a drip in the bathroom. Then there was air in the pipe like a toilet was constantly running. So, the techs came out and replaced a valve and fixed the faucet. They replaced the flapper on the toilet and it fixed it.

    The contractor was awesome. The only thing that was difficult was the scheduling. It took almost two weeks to get an appointment and they had called me. Then I called them back. But nobody called me. It was just there was a little bit of a communication issue. I was glad it wasn't an urgent plumbing request. They were very professional, though. Once I got the schedule, then the tech came out and he was awesome. They had a nice app that let me know the status of where exactly he was and what time. So, it made it a lot easier to plan my day around the window that he was gonna be coming.

    I work full-time and I've been able to do some things on my own. It's nice to have that assurance, like an added thing without having to use your homeowner insurance for things. Just to have the added security factor, knowing that if an appliance or my garage door opener, stops working, it's a backup insurance policy. Last year, when my policy had expired by about a month, and then I had an issue with my garbage disposal, I called to see what I could do and the agent that I spoke to was amazing. She renewed my warranty, and then she allowed me to put in the service request right away, which I really appreciated. I thought I wouldn't be able to do that. I thought it was unusual. It was extremely helpful.

He thought that when he put this plug in where the filter would be in our refrigerator, the water would start coming out. He said that the filters that we use were defective. We usually get our filters shipped every six months so we can change the filter. The first time, the tech said, "Oh, it's your filter. It wasn't tightened."

Platinum Services sent the same technician out again from and he said he tested all this stuff and said, "It's your filter, defective. I suggest you go to Lowe's and purchase a different filter." He sent me the picture, and my son-in-law went and got the filter then we put it in. There's only one way to put it in and you tighten it. The next day, the dispenser for the water started doing the same thing where the stream is coming out real thin. We think that it's defective. My husband called American Home Shield back.

I was never able to talk to a real person besides the people that came out. The claim was for an AC unit that went out on me. It was hot, and my dog and I really suffered. I was having anxiety because I couldn't talk to anyone, so I didn't know if the claim would even go through. This was my first time ever using American Home Shield.

    I filed the claim online and the status went through within a week. That process went surprisingly thorough and quick. I went online to check the status and it said that the claim had been received and that they were working on it. The amount of time it took them to do it was going on two months. The heating company told me it was due to COVID that I couldn't get an AC unit. I went the whole summer without an AC unit, but eventually, they took care of it.

    The people that came out, Perfect Temp, did an awesome job. Their technicians were all over everything.

    We have tenants in our house right now. The HVAC was not working and making weird sounds. The first two times Island Breeze came out, it was quickly. The third time, the wait was a little bit longer than what it should be for an HVAC, considering that we have people that live in our house and we have to make sure that they have working AC. Also, whenever they were done with their work, we didn't get a call back to say exactly what was going on. I've had to call myself to find out what was going on.

    Submitting a claim with AHS was easy 'cause I was able to do it online. But then, the last time, we had a difficult time when we were on the phone trying to get somebody to come out. Because we had called and Island Breeze couldn't come out until the following Friday that we had called. So, we were trying to see if American Home Shield could give us a different company to come out sooner than that. It was really a tense situation going on with that. AHS should improve the process of trying to find a different company to come out when another company can't come out within the next day. There should be a list of different vendors that we could find out and select ourselves if the one that we originally had come out can't come out.

    I did a claim on my oven because when I turned it on, it smelt like gas. I wanted to check that. A repair person came out and did a wonderful job. He said something was going on with the ignition and he took care of that. I had another claim and the rep that initiated the order was very sweet. I didn't wanna take off from work so she noted that. I was trying to ask for a weekend appointment but they didn't have anything available. She noted to put me for the last visit of the day. It was no guarantee but they worked with me. The contractor called and sent a text. The tech who came was quick and efficient. He called 30 minutes prior to make sure I was at home. I showed him the problem and he took it on from there. Within 20 minutes, he was done.

    A friend recommended American Home Shield to me so that was how I wound up knowing about them. I had a good experience with them and would recommend them too. The only thing that I don't really care for is the money up front instead of getting it from the back end when the service technician comes. I didn't understand their process. But as long as the problem gets taken care of, that's okay.

    Family A/C Service came out and we informed them ahead of time that we had our property manager inbound to meet the technician. The technician told me he would give me up to 30 minutes but at 29 minutes, he called me and said he was leaving. At that point, I just talked to my property manager and he was around the corner but the tech said he couldn't wait.

    I got to American Home Shield to have us transferred over to another contractor but my property manager had got on the horn and reached out to someone that we had dealt with in the past with American Home Shield scheduled us with. At the same time, I reached out to AHS and they closed the loop on it. They were able to get the service company contracted for the service, although we had reached out to them privately. The contractor repaired the heating on the spot with no issues.

    The biggest gripe I usually have with AHS is that sometimes there can be a breakdown in communication. A lot of times, it's hard to interpret exactly what the representative is saying on the other end whenever I have a concern. They seem like they're a little confused and lost. Also, they should take into account the time frame in order to get a technician out to accomplish the work. We have two properties -- one here in Alabama and one in North Florida, two of the hottest locations in the country. But when I submit a claim to AHS on a Sunday, they wouldn't get a technician out till a Friday. I find it weird that we have to wait but if I were to call somebody privately, they can either come out the same day or the next day. I don't understand that process. Other than those, they're doing a pretty good job as it is.

    I had a problem with my air conditioning and I called American Home Shield and they sent somebody out. The guy tried telling me that my whole unit was destroyed and it wouldn't work again and that it was too old. But he got one in his garage that he was selling for 2,700. I called him back and he gave me the runaround. I asked American Home Shield for a second opinion and they sent another person out. The other guy came out and he said the first guy was trying to rip me off. He took me downstairs in the basement and showed me that the whole problem was just a wire that corroded on the fan. So he switched it out, cleaned it up, and that was it.

    When the air conditioner went out, I turned the circuit breaker off and turned it back on, hoping that would solve the problem. But when I turned the circuit breaker back on, my TV wouldn't come on. So I called and told American Home Shield about it. They sent out somebody saying that the issue was the circuit breaker that was destroyed. I told him, "It's not the circuit breaker, it's the TV wouldn't come back on." This happened three weeks ago now and every time I call American Home Shield about the TV, they give me the runaround. They tried to send me to All State to have them take care of it, and then they gave me the runaround and they said that American Home Shield won't send them the information they need to get the problem solved.

    Before the TV issue and when American Home Shield wanted my business, they told me, "Oh, don't worry. If this happened, we ride over there. We would take care of it. If we can't take care of it, we replace it. You have nothing to worry about. Everything's insured and all your electronics and your TV and everything is covered," which got me feeling like they lied to me. All they want is the money. When a person comes down with a problem, American Home Shield just wants to leave them high and dry. I don't feel too good about American Home Shield now.

    I have a Sub-Zero refrigerator that has broken three different times. They tried to fix it, but the thing is that the refrigerator is 30 years old. Now, it’s broken again. It hasn't worked for 10 days. Then, there are no parts available until November because of the supply chain problem. They don’t even know when the part is gonna come in, that’s an estimate. Even if there were parts, my point is this refrigerator has to be replaced. It's been fixed three times and it still breaks. We used it to the maximum we could, but, now is the time. AHS was saying that because the technician recommended repair, that they couldn’t do it.

    The technician has no motivation to recommend the replacement when they could just keep fixing it over and over and just taking everybody for money. At best, it’s a $2,000 repair. They’re talking about replacing the whole evaporator and taking the thing apart and putting it back together, and they can’t get parts. If there is a time, this would be the time where a replacement would be called for. I also can't get through to anybody. The people that I'm speaking with don't even understand what I'm saying. They may not fully comprehend what the challenge is.

    I’m not surprised because of the supply chain issue. I’m in finance. My fiancée is a real estate broker and we recommend American Home Shield to the sellers to provide a warranty for the buyers in order to comfort them at the point of sale. That’s a big plus for American Home Shield. We refer business that way. But now, it’s like, “Wow.” We’re wondering if we should be referring anyone if it’s really not for real. I’ve had a decent experience with them, but I haven’t had anything really major go wrong. The techs came out, and then they fixed the plumbing issue. It costs 70 bucks, which was great. But this is something that's happening now after I've had the policy for this particular round the whole year, and I've had it with AHS before that. It's coming up in November for renewal. It's an $800-a-year policy. I just feel like I’m due a claim here.

    They also said that somebody may call me back from the parts department now. That's been told to me twice but no one ever calls. Then, when I called back to see if I could find out, the parts department doesn't have a phone number. So, I can't call out to them. I have to wait for them to call me back and then they don't. Then my refrigerator still doesn't work. So, then I call back again to customer service, and I start all over with someone else.

    The pool pump failed. We called American Home Shield to file a claim. They authorized the one-time payment for us to pay them 100 bucks and then they didn’t do anything. They sat on their thumbs. So, we started screaming at Home Shield umpteen times. Finally, they reacted and they said they were trying to find an agency who could handle the repair of which they weren't doing. So, we looked in the phone directory for Tri-Cities, which is a neighbor of Walla Walla and found these people that came and fixed the pump. They were wonderful. They did exactly what they said. We took pictures of the existing system and sent those to them. We told them what was wrong. They had the new pump with them when they arrived, they took the old one out and had the new one running in not much time at all.

    We’ve got a very large place with a lot of amenities and we’re now 75. We thought having American Home Shield would be more sensible than to take it on the chin the time something failed. We had to pay extra money to have the pool covered. So, we pay extra money every month for the pool. American Home Shield is really a pain to deal with, but we think it's the same thing that everybody goes through. When you call in, you have to wait and you have to pay extra money upfront. Another thing is they shipped us to some foreign country to talk to somebody for help. It's really sick. The people you talk to don't understand what you're trying to say. We kept trying to explain to them, and they wanted a technician to come out and look. We said, “Well, then we waste the service call in that time and then he's going to determine what we know.” We knew it was the pump. It was blowing the breaker off the wall and it was definitely gone.

    What we were having was with our hot tub spa in the backyard, we were losing water in some way. Aaron Pools came out and immediately diagnosed a significant leak and just replaced an O-ring gasket. Because I had it serviced by the company that we bought the spa from and they installed the wrong size O-ring so it continued to leak. So, they took care of that leak. That first guy, right away, was all over it. And once he did the first install of the O-ring, we didn't see any drip in that area.

    But he told us at the time, "Now, keep an eye on this over the next week or so." He said we got a 30-day guarantee and said, "Get us back out here if there's something that isn't right." And that was when I called back and tried to get a second person out there. Because we were still continuing to lose two to three inches of water a day. And there was a company that has something "Green" in the name of it who doesn't service those types of spas. So, Aaron's was assigned to come out. And immediately, when I talked to the scheduling person, she realized that a mistake was made. But usually, she would tell me that we would get a call back from Aaron's. But we never get those follow-up calls.

    This last time, Aaron Pools got the reassignment, a young man came out and he called the guy that did the first service. I had taken all the access panels off so the guy could see as much as we possibly could. And he identified right away, "I really am not qualified to do this. Somebody from Aaron Pools would be calling to reschedule and get a second tech out." They never called. We never heard anything from American Home Shield.

    I talked with an AHS agent and tried to explain what happened with the process. I wasn't clear that it was properly conveyed because I tried to take my time and explained all of those different stops and steps that we've gone through. We're in New York right now and won't be back until the 28th of October. We turned the spa off and we had the cover on it. So, it's not doing any damage to it. But I didn't want to keep putting water into it only to have it leak out. Fortunately, the way this pool is installed, there's an area where all of the mechanical equipment sits above any possible water line. I'd like to get it fixed as quickly as we can. It's just this is one of those things that are hard to diagnose and find. But we still don't have the repair. And that was my problem with the company that we bought it from.

    The spa is now six years old so it's out of warranty. But I always had good luck with their repair people. When the guy came out and did the repair, he told me he had severed ties with the company and would no longer be doing service work on that. So, I probably should have expected the response I got because he was the one that put in the wrong size O-ring. But I had him service the thing on a regular basis before and he has done a good job. But I sent five texts, made four phone calls and nothing was ever returned. I just like to get the repair done. And I should not be paying out another service fee because we didn't get it repaired the first time.

    My fridge wasn't working and the contractor was able to come in and fix it. It was shorter than all my other experiences with American Home Shield. I put in my ticket, I reached out to whoever was assigned to it just to check in with them because they have come out to fix my appliance before. They first ordered parts, so it took a little longer because they ordered the parts and waited for them to come in. Two weeks. When I went through them for my air conditioning for a while, they authorized an outside service and that was a hassle in itself. So, know the timeline for how long you would have to wait to get services done or how easy it would be to work with an outside service contractor. In the summer and wintertime, they're slower in getting stuff done - if it's in the summertime and you need your AC, or if it's in the wintertime and you need your furnace fixed.

    I struggled a lot with the process over the summer. I put in a ticket for my air conditioning. And from the time I did that to the time everything was fixed, it took nine weeks, which is a long time in the summer not to have AC. That was the one time I was like, "I shouldn't even have American Home Shield. I should just leave it be if this is the process that it takes to get things done. And the pricing too, because there are things that I wasn't aware of before contracting with them. But that was my one time that I was thoroughly disappointed in their services. Other than that, they're decent.

    Look into the price and fees. For example, when I had my AC broken, I know when they advertise themselves or when I got my contracts, AHS said I just have to pay my payment fee for a contractor to come out. And if I needed a new appliance, AHS would cover it 100%. But I ended up paying two grand out of pocket for my new AC. That is something that I thought I would avoid by having the warranty. Look into what is covered if you do need something, like a new furnace or a new appliance, how much you would actually pay out of pocket, because they advertise that it would not be anything, but you would have to pay some money out of pocket.

When we had a leak in a major pipe in our basement, a contractor came out and repaired it. However, sometimes they can fix it and sometimes, they can't. Sometimes, you can get it cheaper somewhere else. Also, I don't understand why we have to pay a premium and also have to pay for the service call. We had one contractor come out about a drip in a bathroom tub faucet but he could not fix it. My husband ended up fixing it but American Home Shield charged us a service call for that guy coming out.

    A contractor came out recently and assessed our furnace. They gave us a price that it would cost. I called American Home Shield and they said that we could either go with that contractor or we could find our own contractor. We chose to find our own contractor because we got a better price. I got a copy of the invoice that it would cost for the furnace itself. The installation is not included. I will submit a claim for the furnace to American Home Shield for them to pay us direct.

However, with AHS, they can be a little pain in the butt. Because you tell them what's wrong and they either don't understand what's wrong, or they just misdiagnose it. Before they've sent people out and it was just a waste of my time. They should improve their ability to help troubleshoot the problems a little bit better. I don't know if they have people who aren't necessarily familiar with the type of claims, so if they could've worked on better improving their understanding of what their client’s talking about, it might alleviate a lot of the problems of wasted time for not only the technicians but the clients, too.

    We went and turned on the air conditioner where the thermostat and we sat outside. I said, "It takes about 15 minutes." It was the motor would get hot then it would cease or the fan would cease. We were out there for 35 minutes, and it never did it. The tech hooked different things up to it, trying to test it, and after 35 minutes, he said, "Well, it's working." They called me this morning to see if it was still okay, and I said, "Yeah. It's down to 74. I turned it up to 76. It went off and I'm going to work." Royal Flush was great. The only thing that was disappointing was it took so long to get the part in. However, they were super nice about it, called and said, "We have good news." I said, "What?" They said, "The part's in. But we have bad news. We can't get out there today." I said okay and they came the very next day.

    My dishwasher wouldn't turn on. It didn't have power to it but there was power. For some reason, my password wasn't getting me in AHS's site so I ended up having to reset it. When I had made claims in the past, I'd easily done them online, and it's very quick and easy. I had challenges where we had to replace a microwave and I couldn't get into my account online. So, I ended up having to call American Home Shield directly and just do it that way. But for this dishwasher claim, I was able to access my online account.

    The techs were great and they came quickly. They assessed the situation and realized that the board had gone bad. So they placed the order for the board. When they got a date that it was gonna be in, they scheduled me ahead of time the day after the board arrived and they were able to come back and fix my dishwasher. Every time we've had an appliance break down, AHS has taken care of it.

    American Home Shield has been a blessing to our family and we've recommended them. We had two different plumbers out recently. The main issue was that our toilet had some stoppage and it was backing up into both of our tub. Nick's Plumbing had to come out again to fix something and it was resolved quickly. They were quick to respond this time. In the past, we haven't been able to get them to help as much. We've had to wait for weeks and I wasn't a fan of them before. I preferred All South Plumbing over Nick's Plumbing. They both do a good job but Nick's Plumbing is based out of Illinois, so sometimes, if they're not in town, it might be awhile.

    My microwave would lose power. Submitting the claim to American Home Shield was very easy. It took the technician a week to come out, but it's kind of understandable now with what's going on with COVID. He was very professional. He looked at the microwave and assessed it, and ordered parts for it. What I thought was remarkable about his service was he even gave me some tips on other appliances in the house as to how to maintain them. Having the home warranty these days is such a benefit because repairs and stuff are so expensive. To have to pay just that one-time fee to get my stuff repaired is remarkable for me. It's well-needed for me. I love it. I had great service with AHS. Everything that I've called in, they've been able to either replace or get it repaired for me.

    We've had AHS with some other rental properties and they've been good. We'd always get a response right away and they have helped us out with a few accounts. Of the five that we have, they've been able to do everything right with the four. But the last one for one of our properties which involved the compressor was a bad experience because they messed up the outside unit. The tech that AHS sent out said some very strange things and said that our AC unit was messed up due to being close to the water refinery. But our property is not close to the refinery. Then today, they told us that we're going to have to pay him 1,200, but they're only paying 700 for a compressor.

    Despite that, I’ll recommend AHS. The warranty is worth it and for the most part, it has covered some things. Some of the contractors they sent out were iffy but then some of them were really good. But with our last experience, AHS sucked. We got insurance to cover all stuff then we'd find out that they couldn't repair certain things. That's stealing.

    If I had a choice, I would change American Home Shield to another company. They don't solve the problem easily. Recently, our AC was making a very loud noise. I paid the deductible and the guy came. He gave the receiver to another guy. He said, “We are gonna contact American Home Shield if they wanna update your AC or do this.” Since then, it has been more than 15 days. I haven't heard from them. I was lucky that I went to Orange County for 10 days. But there I live, the weather goes up and down. Sometimes, it's burning hot. I was sweating.

    When I called the Judieh place, they said, “We don't have time.” Those days were 97 degrees. I called them on Thursday. And the closest appointment the lady gave me for the AC said it would be Tuesday. Tuesday, the guy came. First, he said the noises from the fan was not good. And he said, “We are gonna contact AHS. And then they will let you know from there.” I haven't heard from anyone. I came yesterday from the road trip. I called AHS and they said, “Hold on. We will call you back.” They never did.

    My HVAC unit is in the attic and I noticed water dripping all the way down the wall to the bottom floor, even onto the hardwood. So, I turned the AC off. I put in the order to American Home Shield and then, the person called me back the next day to schedule from Southern Comfort, and I explained what was going on. The guy came out and said that it was low on Freon and when that happens, the unit will freeze up and as the ice melts, you get leaking. He explained the coverage, which was $5 per thing of Freon that they give you but I would have to pay the balance of that because American Home Shield doesn't cover it. So I ended up getting the Freon and filled it up. He said I was all set and he turned on the unit. The unit had been running and then, I heard dripping. I opened my bedroom door and it was dripping much worse.

    I called American Home Shield this time and the rep said she was going to do a recall. So the next day, I reached back out to Southern Comfort and said that they should have a recall request to come back out because my AC is dripping again and it was worse than it was before. They sent the same guy back out and he seemed nice and showed up on time. They have the where's my technician app that shows you their ETA, and it was to the minute. He was ringing the doorbell when they said that he was going to be here. He said that he checked everything again and everything was fine. He flushed the Freon line again.

    There was a lot of water when the guy was there before and there was still a lot of water in the unit. He said that when the unit was turning on and shaking, that was what was making that water leak out. So I would need to get water restoration people who can suction the water out. The guy said that they don't do that because with the warranty company, they want them to only do the one thing that they're there for. So since they're HVAC, they don't remove the water.

    The guy suggested a couple of companies to call on and it's been hell trying to get someone to return a call to get out and to do it. I don't have any complaints about the contractor at all, other than he didn't tell me about the water the first day. And then, it was worse. I have not had the HVAC unit back on since because if it's going to leak when I turn it on, I'm not going to turn it on because it's causing damage. I've got the water stains on the wall. It's been hot and we've just been in here sweating until I can try to get somebody to come out to deal with it and get the water out.

    So far, we've been satisfied with American Home Shield's service. Neighborhood Pool and Garage Door came out for the filter. We thought it was fixed, but it turns out it wasn't fixed. We just haven't put in another ticket yet. But I didn't have any issues with them. I had several people. They came out to fix the part that they thought was the issue, and they did it pretty quickly.

    There's been a few different contractors over the years that we've had some issues with. It's not a Home Shield issue. It's a contractor issue. The first pool company that they sent out to fix the pump did fixed the pump, but then they told us that the problem with the filter needed a separate ticket because it was a different issue. So, we put the ticket in and then the tech never showed back up to fix it. When I called Home Shield about it, they called him and he said he was too busy and to assign it to somebody else. There was an air conditioning place out of Tulsa that was awful, too. AHS sent them out twice. We've had to start asking for someone else, and the people they've sent out the last few times have been much better. Back in the very beginning, they sent a person out of Tulsa that was awful. He was rude and disrespectful.

    We have two pretty good-sized very old air conditioning units and furnaces. AHS has been beneficial as far as those because we've had to have several repairs between the two units. Then we also have the older pool system. Being an older home, I would definitely recommend having AHS. We've had issues with refrigerator, stove and microwave, too.

They give you the number to the company, so you can either call them yourself or you can wait for them to call you.

    TLC is fine. The guy that came out was great. He was very careful. He knew what he was doing. He explained everything he was doing. There was no guessing as to what was wrong with it. He also didn't just fix what was there. He took a look at everything while he had it apart. He fixed a couple of other things that had worn. So, I was really happy with him.

    The AC's motor broke and I called AHS. At first, they couldn't send me anybody and it was a week wait. I had GVEC as my electrical provider and they do air conditioning and heating as well, so they came out and diagnosed it for me. They told me what was wrong with it and how much it would be to repair it. Then I called American Home Shield back and today, I had another company come out. Their guy was in agreement on what GVEC said was wrong with the AC and he repaired it. He had to replace it and I was charged $75. The guy that came out was knowledgeable and knew what he was talking about. But when I called AHS for this claim, the customer service rep that I spoke to was not that great and didn't respond quickly. I was unsatisfied with their customer service but once the contractor got involved, the experience was streamlined.

    The clothes dryer wouldn’t turn off. The tech came out here and he was very efficient. He took it apart, found out there was a problem with the computer within the thing, and he said they don’t make them anymore or the machine is too old. But he was able to fix it in a way that it's working fine now. The tech was very good. However, the overall claim process with AHS was a nuisance. I went through a lot of hoops to get to somebody.

    The initial issue was the belt in my dryer. It would go on and get hot. It just wouldn't spin. I spoke to American Home Shield on the phone and they just asked me what was going on. I let them know what I was experiencing. I received a text saying what company would come out and what times they would be there. When they came, they pretty much confirmed it. They found out the belt was ripped. It went smooth and efficient. I've been an AHS member since March. I used the service a few times already for tune-ups to my HVAC as well. I would recommend them.

    AHS's automated system doesn't respond very well. It asks a bunch of stupid questions. So, I just end up trying to talk to a live person. Everything usually works fine when I submit a claim and customer service is usually pretty good. Sometimes it takes a while to get a hole of somebody but they work. I had a problem with my refrigerator. Because of my schedule, it took a little bit of time for the contractor to come. They were professional, had their mask on and told me what was going on. I explained what was happening, they looked at it, and they knew what it was immediately. It was just a clogged drain and the techs fixed it really quickly. Having a home warranty saves money. You got to pay some money every month. Sometimes, you don't use it, but in the long run, it more than evens out. I'm very satisfied with AHS.

    I was having problems with a couple of different things and every time, it seemed like the breaker flipped, so I thought it was the breaker. Apparently, it wasn't. I had a house burned down because of electrical before, so I'm afraid of electrical issues. When I had two problems in the house at the same time, I thought maybe it's in the electrical. The home warranty company sent out an electrician first then when the electrician left, he said, “I'll let them know. And they'll have somebody else come out to fix the microwave.”

    When my microwave went out for the third time, American Home Shield sent somebody out from Sears and changed the fuse again. They tell me it's a fuse every time. A fuse goes out in the microwave and then I have to pay $75 to get it fixed. The home warranty company should have replaced the microwave instead of having to do this three different times. I was happy with Sears, with the first one that came out to fix it, but I am not happy with American Home Shield. If I have the choice, I would never take out American Home Shield again. I would never advise anybody to. I also had an experience with them before that was not good at all.

    AHS's service is pretty good if you can get the right person to talk to. They could stop sending our calls to overseas reps because they don't understand what we're trying to say and it makes it worse. It's like a never-ending loop. But AHS has done well for us and we haven't had any issues getting things repaired.

    I got a prompt response when I submitted a claim for the toilet. Someone was immediately contacted to handle the job. The service provided by the tech was excellent. He’s experienced in his job. He was also friendly and willing to pay attention to what was happening and was able to offer a solution for it. He put a snake in it and it was a wipe that was stuck in the toilet and he was able to bring it out. However, American Home Shield charges 100 bucks. If I should report on that plumbing work, I’m gonna pay 100 bucks. If I report any electrical problem, I’m gonna pay 100 bucks. So, that limits my satisfaction with this policy. If they can reduce the 100 bucks, that could make sense.

    The claim submission process has been very smooth thus far. Recently, Westbrook Plumbing came out and the issue seems to be resolved. They got everything done in like 20 minutes. The only thing I would change with the process is getting a list of service providers I could choose from. I had an air conditioning claim and I was assigned one but when I did research, they did not have good reviews. And it was from a provider who was an hour and a half away from my house. But I got that fixed right away.

    I had an overflow in my attic and it was a pipe that was sticking straight up with nothing on the top of it and it was gushing out water. So, I called American Home Shield and Anders Air Conditioning couldn't come for three days. I found it in my closet. It was coming through my vent, but it was just dripping. I thought, "Where's this coming from?" When I went up in the attic and looked, there was water all over the place. That was when I called. When they said they couldn't come for two or three days, I thought, "Okay, I've got to figure this out. What's going on?"

    So, I went outside to see if it was draining, and it was draining, but I thought, "Maybe it's just clogged up further up in the drain." I got a coat hanger and stuck it up there, and then a bunch of water came out. After that, it stopped overflowing. When the tech came, he looked at it, looked outside, looked inside and he blew it out for me. He said, "This could happen again. So, on your contract, it says you can blow it out." He was a very nice man. I appreciated him very much. He seemed very knowledgeable about what to do.

    My ice maker went out and AHS sent B&B, which I hope they don't use anymore. I had two faucets that needed to be fixed and they fixed one and never came back. When my ice maker went out, they sent somebody out. This was in June. It needed a part, and nothing happened. So, AHS sent Sears out and the Sears tech said we need a new motor and they're going to order that for me. He had talked American Home Shield.

    It took forever. They were sending the parts to me. I didn't know it at the time. I just kept getting these packages. I didn't know what to do with them because I didn't order them. Then, when I called them to find out what was going on, they said, "There's four parts and they're not all in yet." So, I said, "Okay, that's what's being sent to me." The Sears guy came, he called AHS and told them, "It's going to be better for you to replace it than to just have all these parts in here." AHS would replace it, but I had to get it, and they would only pay up to $2,000 for it.

    So, I ordered it and it's supposed to be here between the next six weeks or so, but it's costing me $3,000 instead of the 2,000. So, I'm out $1,000 because they didn't cover the whole thing. But we're not there yet because they said they would do up to $2,000 and I had to sign it within so many days. This was before I had a chance to even look for one. So, I signed it, and then I'm finding out that they're a lot more than that and this is just the one I had. It's not even an upgrade. At this price, I couldn't even afford an upgrade, which if I had, I would have been happy to pay the overage. Overall, American Home Shield has called people to come, but their choices haven't been that good always. They have called some good people though.
