    Our AC would click, but it just wouldn't kick in. A tech came for it and he was here for about an hour and he was gone. The service was great. They were on time. With American Home Shield, I like the convenience and the security of knowing everything will be fixed.

    My wife was freaking out because her oven was not heating to the correct temperature. The guy that was out here was nice and seemed very knowledgeable. He thought that calibrating it would fix it but it didn't. It's still over 50 degrees off. When I called Oreon Appliances back, their comment was I needed to call back American Home Shield and have them send out a specific GE technician. I thought that was their job to come out and fix it.

    I was having issues with my previous home warranty company and when I told my sister about the situation, she recommended me to try American Home Shield. She said she has never had any problem when she's had claims. Since I started with AHS, I've been happy. I've had some issues with my garbage disposal, my sink, and my water heater and the technicians have been good. They were real respectful in the way that they do their jobs. I let everybody know the stuff that AHS has done.

    There was a water valve leak. We had to have another person come out and give a second estimate ‘cause the first contractor overdid it and missed the mark. The second contractor was able to figure out how to fix the job for us. It wasn't as much as the first contractors said. But both contractors were nice. The part that they needed to do was done. We still have to deal with some water damage from our insurance company. But American Home Shield has always been pretty great. It’s pretty easy to submit a claim. You go online or you call in. They've always been very responsive. For the most part, they've always done what they said they will do. I always tell people that they should get American Home Shield.

    AHS was the company that I heard the most about and the one that people around me were using, so I went with them. Recently, my hot water heater was leaking we had a wet floor. We submitted a claim with AHS and it took a little bit of doing to get in contact with someone. I waited on hold for 30 minutes, then I hung up and did the online claim. It went fine after that. The techs from C Mayes Plumbing came out and they were fine as well.

    It's easier to do a claim online than to do it on the phone. They don't seem to know what you are explaining to them. But the technician was great. He displayed very good professionalism. The guest room shower bathtub faucet wasn't working and he had to replace the whole thing. So far, it's working. He said something was broken inside so we couldn't get it to work. When you turned it on, it just turned around 360 without any water.

    My realtor gave American Home Shield to us as our welcome-to-the-neighborhood gift for our new home. I was told I should do a warranty and my Realtor did it all for me. But it has not been beneficial. I could have saved a lot of money without it. I didn't pay the original fee, which is nice. But even the $75 copays that I have to pay is more than was needed for the jobs. And when I had something that was more than $75, AHS said they were not gonna do anything for it.

    I had an issue with my oven and a person looked at it. I was told that it wasn't normal wear and tear. I was kind of confused because I didn't know what else it could be. We did nothing. We didn't beat the oven up or anything. But AHS wouldn't cover it for me. I probably won't be continuing the service after the life of the contract because I was kind of disappointed with the oven.

    Home Shield sent out Quick A/C Solutions to check my air conditioner. He is a very nice gentleman, but it seemed like he didn't speak English. It just sounded to me like he did not know and he would not answer my questions. He motioned to me that I needed a new filter. And when I asked him, he shook his head yes to that. Maybe he did understand, but to me, he didn't answer my question. Just with a yes or a no shaking of the head. They should go to their own nationality if they can't speak English. They shouldn’t go to a person who wants to ask questions. If they don't speak any more than he did, do your own people because then you will understand each other. Other than that, I was satisfied with what happened. Everything with the AC looks fine.

    My freezer can make and maintain ice but it's not cold enough to keep things deep frozen like it's supposed to and the refrigerator doesn't get cold enough to have drinks. Things ruin faster in there than they're supposed to. The tech came before Thanksgiving and looked at it. He said he was going to recommend it for a replacement and I haven't heard anything else back. I've already threatened to cancel my account with American Home Shield three times because they came in and charged me $100, like they did for the refrigerator, and nothing happened. It was the same thing with my dryer. The guy came in, threw a quick fix on it and it still didn't work. They came back out again and threw another quick fix on it but it still didn't work. It takes three hours to dry one load of clothes.

    My dryer is 20 years old and so is my refrigerator. A whole part of AHS is that if it doesn't work, they're going to replace it. But they don't replace anything. I'm still paying my monthly premium and I'm still paying for when they come out to look at something. They've been out three times to look at that dryer. That's $300 I've spent on them coming out to look at it plus the $50 I pay a month on my account. Before they fix it, the repairman says he's got to put something else on there. So now, I gotta wait till he can come out and put another piece on there. If it works, then my dryer is good but it cost me $450.

    The refrigerator is a whole different story. The first time they looked at it, the guy did something to it. It worked for about three months and now, it has stopped working again. This person came out, looked at it and said that it's an old appliance. There was nothing he could do and he would put it in for a replacement. But I'm still spending money. AHS is costing me $54 a month and I'm still not seeing a result. They should fix my stuff or replace it like they said they do when they got me to sign up.

    If I go by what the repair people say, they're getting paid to come out. So, they're not going to say, "Replace this." Out of the three times they came out for the dryer, I've had to pay twice. With the refrigerator, I had to pay once. AHS should stand by what they say. But they're going by what the repair people say and the repair people doesn't make money if they replace it. If this isn't resolved, then I'm canceling AHS. I can replace my own products and I won't have to pay somebody $50 a month for six months before it gets done.

    KN Repair called in advance so I could get my kids either out of the house or put them down the basement. Also, they wore masks. However, I'm waiting for parts to be delivered. KN Repair came out the first time and the parts that they ordered did not fix the problem so they had to order another part. And they said that Home Shield requires them to do it that way as opposed to just getting both parts at the same time. I wish they would be delivered more quickly. I've been without a refrigerator for four weeks. Other than that, I had somebody out to do a heater or furnace repair and they were great. They fixed it. My husband travels for work a lot and I find Home Shield beneficial because I just have to call one number, then get the issue taken care of. I don't have to search for somebody to fix it.

    I had American Home Shield several years ago and I got upset over something and left them. I looked around and I couldn't find anybody else that I liked so I went back to American Home Shield. Recently, my kitchen sinks were plugged up and I could not get them unplugged. I called American Home Shield and spoke to a lady. She took all the information down and got back to me with the name of the company that would be contacting me within 24 hours. I got a call from a guy named Richard who’s the owner of Watkins Plumbing on Friday evening saying he would not be able to have a technician out until Tuesday ‘cause it was approaching the weekend, and then Monday, the technician would be back and he's booked up. I said it was fine but I couldn't wait that long.

    I called AHS and talked to this lady. She said that she would do her best to find somebody for Saturday. I never heard back from her. But toward the evening, I got a call from Watkins Plumbing. This technician named Jerry said that he's in the neighborhood and that he would come by and look at my problem. Bear in mind that he had already worked all day and he was on his way home. But he took time out to swing by my house to check out my problem, which I thought that was very commendable. He snaked out the line several times, got it repaired, great, had a professional attitude, and was a very pleasant young man. He cleaned up my problem, cleaned up after himself, bid us goodbye, and took off. I was very pleased with that young man. He was a tribute to his company. This is my first time that I've had to put a claim in and if American Home Shield continues to work and take care of me like they did this time, I'll never leave again.

    One of the dishwasher's hoses leaked and Premier fixed that. And then it was also missing the part that's underneath the appliance next to the floor. They ordered that, came back and put that in. They did very well. However, you have to submit claims online to get quick service. It's very hard getting Home Shield on the phone. And sometimes, when they select a vendor to come out and do the work, it's not that swift. I'm anticipating at some point, I would have to replace the hot water heater. And when you lose that, you can't go a week without it. That's a concern for me. The dishwasher was not a problem. But if you have an urgent issue, you want to make sure that they can get on it right away.

    Other than that, it looks like Home Shield covers a lot of things that go wrong in a home. They also replaced my thermostat. I had a very expensive Wi-Fi thermostat that broke. I was shocked to see that that was covered and they took care of it. I also had an issue with my washing machine. But it was a stackable unit so they are connected. They took care of that. I've had three issues with them, and they've handled all three of them. The fact that you can get these repairs done for $75 is wonderful. I just renewed with Home Shield for another year.

    We had a leak with an old pipe and when we submitted a claim with AHS, it was fairly easy. The techs that they sent out were wonderful, too. They put a flexi pipe there instead, but they had to come back out since we had to cut the water off because the leak started doing water damage going under our floor. It also messed up my husband's pressure on his hot water side of the master bathroom in the shower. I called AHS, explained everything, and they gave me a tough time for a minute. I had to call back and follow up, but they got it resolved, so no complaints on that.

    We've been paying for the insurance faithfully until we had an issue with our hot water tank. But we went a whole month with no hot water because we were going around and around with the company. Then, we just got a furnace because they told us we needed a new sensor, which worked for a minute and then it conked out. We had to go another whole month with no heat and we're here in Pittsburgh.

    Liberty came once, but then there was something that had to be taken care of because it is not 100% right. They were ready to send somebody a couple of days back. We just told them that when the temperature goes really low, at times, the thermostat is not able to hold on to the temperature. So, they told us that we could call them back whenever necessary and they would send us the person who would take care of it. If everything was taken care of in a better way during the first visit, it would be much better, instead of them telling us that we only have to wait for a couple of business days. We have a shockingly high premium. We also have to pay every single time we have an issue. We have to pay for the visit. But as of now, in terms of service, they are quite good. They are very responsive.

    There was a noise in the AC and it was not cooling. Walker Air Conditioning sent me their information and said that they would be coming by or reaching out to me, which they did. Then they reached out right before they got here as well. Our interaction was very social distanced. We walked to the back where the unit was and they had their masks on the entire time when they came through the house to look at the actual wall unit. When they went outside, they still kept their mask on, even though they were working out there, which is what I liked about it.

    Worst service ever! Been with American Home Shield for less than a year. Had my first claim with them for a dryer belt that had to be replaced. The technician informed AHS that the part could not be replaced. AHS agreed to provide a replacement/cash payout to resolve. After almost 3 months, I am still without a working dryer. I have been lied to on numerous occasions that my file was sent to escalation for replacement. However, when I called today 12/03/2020, I was told that my service order was closed and new one was requested on 10/10/20.

    This is not accurate because a technician never showed. They did not come because they previously informed AHS that the part could not be ordered. Now AHS conveniently has no documentation from the technician that could not fix the dryer. I was basically told by the AHS representative that I was a liar for even suggesting that my dryer was sent to escalation for replacement. When I kindly thanked the representative for her help and asked to be connected to her manager, she refused. Informing me that there is not a manager at her company to help me.

    So I am to believe that AHS warranty claims department does not have a supervisor or manager overseeing employees? What a joke. Their solution was to place me on hold to be connected to the escalation department, in hopes that I would just give up and disconnect. I am currently still on hold with them and it’s been well over 2 hours. What joke. TERRIBLE COMPANY, HORRIBLE CS, STAY AWAY!!!

    The guy deprogrammed the garage and he reprogrammed the garage door opener but he forgot to reprogram the keypad. As a result, we had to go through a couple of inconveniences to make that happen. He let us believe we might need a whole new garage system which was not what we needed at that moment. However, we got a second opinion and found out that if we looked into this and that, we were good to go.

    What disturbed me with American Home Shield is they got a lot of little clauses where if you need something fixed, they go through the fine print. I needed someone to replace my faucet. Their people came out and found the plumbing issue but they don't do faucets. For single women who are not inclined to do stuff like that, that's a real inconvenience. That's not intuitive in that line of work. But for the most part, it's a very good process with American Home Shield. They are real good about taking your concern and getting someone out as soon as possible.

    It was an excellent experience. The technician who was out here doing the work we had requested knew his business. He told us exactly what the problem was and fixed it. We're very happy with it. He was working on our refrigerator where the freezer had frozen and there was ice all over the place. But what happened was the refrigerator door wasn't closing good and he had to correct that and check out the gasket. Now, everything's working perfectly. He was outstanding. He cleaned up and left the house in good shape. I would highly recommend him. The personnel AHS sends out to do the work are very knowledgeable and very nice people.

    We had a leak in our upstairs bathroom. We didn't know if it was coming from the shower or from the toilet. So, we had one guy come out through American Home Shield, and he just caulked around stuff, and went in the little access panel. I told him I didn't think that's what it was. But he's a plumber, I'm not. So he did that. Then, the leaks still happened. A second guy from a second company came out. He took the toilet up, put a wax ring under it and did a couple other things. He thought that was gonna do it, and he left, and it still wasn't it.

    Another guy came out from the same company and took the toilet up again, and put like two or three wax rings under it. Unfortunately, that still didn't do it. So we called, and the same company came back out. This time, we finally went through the downstairs up in the kitchen ceiling. They cut a little one foot by one foot spot out, and there was a pipe that we couldn't see, and then there was a crack in it that was slowly leaking. The final run did good and it’s fixed. The technicians were very professional. They were here on time, wore masks, and did a great job.

    The service is very quick and responsive. We get a phone call back from A-US within 24 hours from putting our claim in, or less. We get text notifications that the tech is coming out. The timeframes have always worked with our schedule. And they're clear on what's wrong and if they have to order a part or with the timeframe. We're lucky that our house is very well-insulated, and we don't live in like a super cold area. Because the part took a few days. But that's not an inconvenience to us. They were back Friday and got the work done, and everything works great. But if you were in a really cold part of the country, going a few days without heat might be problematic.

    The other thing is there is some level of comfort with the fact that at least, we believe that Home Shield has vetted the contractors. As a homeowner, trying to research somebody, and verify, and find reviews before you have them come out and do jobs in your home, knowing that they have selected somebody for you, that they have been vetted, and they're coming out saves a lot of time. It would take me all day or longer to find a reputable contractor to come do major repairs.

    We're in an older home. But even though it was renovated 10 years ago, just having the peace of mind that the heating, air, plumbing, electrical is covered if something catastrophic happens. That is the peace of mind we are willing to pay. Anytime you have to have major plumbing, electrical work or heating and air, you know that you are upwards of thousands of dollars. This particular repair was not that much. It's just some small items. But I feel better knowing we have that kind of coverage as opposed to not. Some people might get a bank loan or something. We had a problem with a dishwasher years ago, but they ended up getting it all resolved. We have utilized the service and have been very happy.

    The part that controls the level of the water that comes in and shuts it off once it reaches that level wasn't working and the washing machine overflowed. The contractor was very knowledgeable and I had no complaints with the experience. They figured it out, knew what they were doing and ordered the part. It was on a Friday so the part wouldn't come in until Monday. They came here Tuesday and took care of it. Everything’s working great since then. That was my first experience with American Home Shield and I'm very pleased with it.

    I'm happy with who AHS has as their contractors. It went excellent with Affordable Heating and Air. I highly recommend them. They worked around my work schedule and were very courteous. I couldn't ask for anything better. It was probably the second best experience I've had. The last time I had someone come out and work on an appliance of mine was the washer, and it was horrible. There was no common courtesy. They were like, "If you can't take that day off, then you're just gonna have to wait another month until you can get the time off because we don't work around that."

    We had some problems with the air conditioning which we called our regular air conditioning people for and had them fix it. After that, I was talking to a neighbor and told them I had all this work done and it was so expensive. He said I should have American Home Shield and they really love it. He said, “We pay monthly and a service charge. They come out and if they can fix something, they fix it. If they can't fix it, they replace it. It's good to have that insurance.” So I decided I'd have it.

    Recently, it appears that two of the dampers for my heating system are not working appropriately. We have three zones and when two other zones are calling for heat, instead of sending it to those two zones, the third zone is doing something and sending all the heat to the third zone so all the heat is going upstairs. I put in a request for the service and the tech was very nice. He explained everything to us and said that they have to order the parts so they haven't been back yet to fix it.

    Budget AC helped me out, but my furnace still will go in a loop. It takes about four hours for it to clear itself and kick back on. When they came out and checked the furnace, they told me I got 60 days. They wanted me to monitor it, and if I have challenges, they'll be right back out to go to the next step, and clean it out and put it back together. The only problem is now you get the condenser and all the water from the heat comes in. That part is just not draining properly. Their fix was a simple clear up. They just cleared the line and showed me how to clear the line and wanted me to monitor it. If it absolutely does not work and I go through a whole day without heat on the first floor, I'm gonna give them a call and have them come back out. I am happy with what they did thus far.

    I was getting dirt and like a drizzle of water coming from the faucet, and it wasn't the first time. It's a new faucet, but it happened with the old faucet also. The contractor had hit the faucet, and it kind of cleared it for a minute, and then it would return. We couldn't get the water to actually come out. So, it was suggested that it might be dirt in the line coming from the street. I explained the issue to the plumber, but I thought what he did was unusual. I wasn't 100% certain that it was going to work, but he did tell me I had 60 days in which I could call in without paying another service call if the problem returned. So, that made me feel good. He took a washer out of the spigot, and cleaned it, and ran the water. So far, it's been acting fine.

    American Home Shield has been extremely helpful because I have a pool and I took that as one of my additional coverage. Within six months later, I needed to use them. They've come out, and they've replaced one of my pumps and did some other work that would have cost considerably had I not had the warranty. Since then, they've also came out and replaced my waterline in my freezer, and the part inside the freezer that churns the ice because it was rusty. I got the line when I got the refrigerator. Then, one day, we discovered that the part that cuts the ice up and stuff was rusty. I'm like, “We're drinking ice tubes made with rusty water.” So, for a while, we had stopped making the ice and just bought the trays. It was very inconvenient. They fixed that. I've had them out twice for my washing machine and they replaced parts. So, I keep them because they're very handy.

    They take care of my problems. I don't have to do all the hunting and worry about whether or not I'm getting somebody that’s qualified. I've only had to turn one company down that they had initially recommended. In that timeframe, the contractor that they got in touch with to service me didn't call me back in like three days. But that was the only incident that I've ever had with them, which was not their fault. If I had called this person, got them out of a phone book, I’d have been very upset.

    GJC came out to look at the doorbell and then they came to look at one of the light switches that we had. They also looked at some of the lights that we had in the kitchen. It was a really good experience. The tech gave us some good advice on what possibly could be done. He gave us a bunch of alternatives in case one situation didn't work out. It was all around a good experience. He didn't just come in and be like, "Okay, well, we can't fix this," and then leave. He actually gave us some other options to look at and he gave very good feedback.

    Submitting the service request was really easy to do, but AHS should allow the customer to put in exactly what's wrong so the service guys will have a better idea of what they're coming to look at. Even though when they come out, they are doing a review to see what exactly is wrong. But it would be better if the customer could give them a better understanding of what they're dealing with. But I would definitely recommend my family and friends to AHS because it was really efficient. I put in the order for something to get done and they called me 10 minutes later. That doesn't happen with any company whatsoever. The service guys came out the next day. So that was really great.

    It was a little confusing with the second request that I had for the guy to come out and look at the appliances. I wasn't aware that I had to wait for AHS to give me a call to set it up. But on my first experience with electrical, I submitted the claim, and then the guy called me 10 minutes later to set up the service and he came out the next day. With the other situation, I didn't get a call for at least another two weeks. So that was confusing on whether the process was still the same or where if it was different or if they just forgot.

    The company did great for each time that they came out. I have old machines, but they're General Electric. They're basic machines and initially, the machine was making a noise and the belt had worn out. We had to order the belt, which made me have to wait four weeks till the belt came in. They came back and put the new belts on. When I did laundry, the heater wasn't working, so the repairman came back. He came in and said, "Well, I've got it working. But if it gives you any trouble, let me know, and I'll come back and I'll replace the heating element." I was like, "Okay." I called them immediately, but the schedule made it five weeks more. He then he came back and replaced the whole heating unit.

    I did my laundry one more time and it made such a hellacious noise. It was absolutely horrible. First, it was vroom, vroom and then it was metal on metal. It was a high-pitched thing, so I had to call them again and waited a week. When the guy came, he looked at it. The spindle that the drum sits on, which is usually very robust, gives out after 25 years and he had to replace that. Through some sheer luck, he said he came across that earlier in his career and he had one in his van, which was bizarre to me and to him, even more, because he knows what the likelihood of having that part in his truck is. He replaced that and now my unit is running perfect three months later.

    It was above and beyond. Meanwhile, at one point, my washer was giving me trouble, and someone came in and looked at that too. It hasn't done that since. It was a bad couple of months (September October, and November), but my daughter lives close by, so I was not going to the laundromat all this time. I was fine. American Home Shield responded every time that I requested additional service and only charged me what I felt was fair. When I had to call back, they were like, "Okay.", so it kept continuing. They didn't overcharge me. I'm thrilled that I have the warranty.

    I bought my first house in the beginning of October and did not move in until a week before Thanksgiving. Six days into me living here, I had an issue with my ceiling leaking and the plumbing issues. My realtor told me I had American Home Shield and she told me to contact them to submit a claim. The process was straightforward. I submitted it online, and then they got Immediate Response out here. They contacted AHS to let them know what was going on, then they came back and said, "No, it's denied," which I was very surprised. The fact that I had to pay $75 to even submit that claim was unfair because then it was just denied and I still have to pay out of pocket. The issue I have is not with that company. The issue was with American Home Shield, the carrier. Immediate Response was good. They were on time, professional, and whatever they did, they handled the job well.

    Original Review: Dec. 3, 2020

    Home Shield still hasn't replaced our microwave. We've been waiting on a replacement for a little while now and still, nothing is moving. The buyout option was nowhere near what in actual it would cost us. So, we're waiting for them to replace it with something in stock. Our microwave didn't turn on anymore. The oven works, but the microwave portion did not. So, we called them to set up an appointment, and then they sent somebody to our home.

    First, a GE Appliance guy came and he got that working. Then about 25 days after that, it broke again. So, we called American Home Shield and reported it again. Universal came out the first time then. The guy was was very nice. He tried his best, but it didn't work. He did it multiple times. He came back three times to try different things, but nothing worked. Their claims process is extremely difficult. Every time you call into customer service there, you’re on hold for about an hour to an hour and a half. Then you talk to them, and then they transfer you somewhere else. Then you're on hold again until somebody comes back.

It's good to know that there is a flat rate, the $75 rather than 100 and something, like we had a part replaced on the refrigerator. I asked a technician about how much does that usually cost, and he said 170 something. So, at least we have saved some money.

What the problem was the spring is busted. It's not part of the door track, so I had to pay for the spring, even though it's a door track.

When I put an order in, whoever was contracted out here got back to me typically pretty quickly. Then on one occasion, it was an emergency, and they got someone out here the same day. So, we had power. They were good.

    My dishwasher wouldn't drain. Precision Appliance Repair was dispatched and they took really good care of me. Jennifer was their assistant. She was super nice and set everything up. Then Philip came out and he tried everything he could to figure out why it wasn't working. Then he realized it was the pump. He took the pump from the dishwasher to his truck, and he tried fixing it. Then he said he would have to order a part because of the age of the dishwasher. It was a hard part to come across, so he said it would take about anywhere from three to five business days. The very next day, he called and told me he found a part locally and that he would be able to come by the next day if that was okay with me. It ended up working out perfectly. I was super impressed with their service.

    With COVID and everything, AHS has an automated phone service. But when I first filed my first claim to them, it was very hard to get contacts. I actually had to do the online chat, which they were able to take care of me there. It was just kinda confusing 'cause I tried calling on the phone and they sounded like they were super busy so no one ever picked up. But other than that, I've been super happy with them.

    Everything was really good when the locksmith came out. He was a great guy. He arrived on time and let me know what was going on. I was very satisfied with everything on there. American Home Shield seems to be working out pretty good. I was going to get it at another house we purchased, but I couldn't get ahold to any representatives. It was a challenge getting through to them. So we went with another company.

They said they had to order a part and it'd be in the following week but they never came back for 2 months. When they came back, they said, "Hey, you just got a new icemaker." I got one back in August. They eventually came back, put it in, and now we have an icemaker again.

    The first guy that came out for our recent claim was from Oreon Appliance and he had no idea what he was doing. He told me they were gonna replace the door switch, then turned around and told AHS there was nothing wrong with the microwave. ABM Appliance came out on a Friday. The guy knew exactly what he was doing.

    He said it was an old microwave, which it is. It’s 26 years old. He said it was either some grease in the touch panel or some grease in the system. Or there was a wire in there that was loose after 26 years of service. I agreed with him. He said he would submit his report to AHS and he did. He knew what he was talking about. One thing I dislike about the whole process is the hold time with AHS is terrible. An hour and a half to talk to a living, breathing American, no excuse for that. But I talked to Briana yesterday in Arizona because we were trying to figure out how to replace the microwave and she was a great person and got things resolved.

    The first time that Appliance Express was called, the dishwasher had stopped. It wouldn't finish the draining cycle. Then when the tech came out, he said it wasn't latching properly. He fixed something to the effect that now it was draining. But after he put the faceplate back on, we tried to load it up and run it and it didn't go very well. The lights would come on when we hit the start and then it would do the flashing green light saying that it wasn't making a connection. The second time that the tech came out, he said he had fixed that where he changed out the latch where it would latch properly. Then today, he was still confused by it.

    Apparently, the metal portion that the latch attaches to still wasn't making a connection. It's a safety device and that's what gives the power to the machine from the wall. So if that wasn't making the connection, even though it was in there and it would become latched, it wouldn't make that proper connection. The tech has done something in it and it seems to be working now. He said he still might have to order some other pieces to fix it properly, but he said it should work temporarily until they could get the pieces in. They're pretty good and they're always on time. It was just disappointing that I had to call them out three different times to get it done correctly.

    Once American Home Shield finally listened to what I was saying and fix the right piece, it was great. The dishwasher was leaking. When the techs got here, I told them that it was leaking. I tried to get them to go downstairs with me so that they could see where it was leaking from, and they didn't do that. They just started taking things off of the dishwasher, which has been replaced, I didn't realize that, but they still did not address the issue of the leak. So, when they left, and I turned it on, my laundry room was flooded because that was where the leak was going into. So, then I called American Home Shield back and they sent somebody else out, and he specifically fixed the leak, and now I have no problems. They were pretty efficient and very polite, and they did a good job. It took them less time to fix than it would have taken me.

I would pay $100 and they would fix it. And if they can’t fix it, they would replace it. That doesn't sound bad so I signed up. This winter, I turned the furnace on and it started making a noise.

    American Home Shield was great. It was easy and they did it quickly and professionally. Lately, we've used them more than we normally do. We had the water heater and then the sewer. The sewer ended up not being covered by anything. It was a couple of crack pipes on the lawn. The guy from Stellar Plumbing who did the repair was excellent.

    We just had our brickwork redone around our flower beds and the plumber had to dig up a couple of really ornamental bushes and to get to the line. But they did it really carefully and they fixed the brickwork. They also planted everything back perfectly. They were very professional. They came out twice. He ran the whole line and he was pretty sure that it was the problem. Then it ended up being two cracks and he was amazed that we were having no problems at all until now ‘cause it was bad. Then most plumbers would have charged 2,000 but he charged 900. They did excellent work. They were really methodical and very clean. I was very impressed. In fact, I'm keeping their card.

    American Home Shield has been great. If it was something that they would have covered, it would have cost me $75. Just to have a plumber out can be anywhere from $100 to $130 so in that sense, it's great. Then this past year with the water heater going, that alone saved us over 1,000. We've had American Home Shield the whole time since we bought it. It was a year old. Now, the home is almost 20 years old and things will go. So I'd much rather have that support than not. It just makes no sense to me not to have American Home Shield. There was a weird time that American Home Shield had where they weren't very good. But it seems like you've corrected a lot of that, which is the right thing to do.

    We had our washing machine go, but American Home Shield wasn't doing the product match anymore. We also get our ACs and our heater serviced every year for efficiency and hopefully, longer maintenance. But we have to fill our Freon and I know each year, there is going to be a point where they're just going to be done with them. Also, the cost for what was being replaced is becoming not effective. But I'm glad that we have American Home Shield for those kinds of things. But at the same point, I know that there was a dip there. I'm just glad to see that they worked that.

The first contractor AHS sent was from far away. The scheduling issue was inconvenient but they worked it out.

    My water heater had been leaking and Neely Brothers came out. They were wonderful and there was a girl who kept calling me and keeping me posted with what was going on. They weren't supposed to install the water heater until last Friday, but I had some water damage so they had to come cut walls out and take floors out. She kind of sped the process up for me and they came out on Wednesday evening and got it taken care of.

    I always call AHS when I have a claim and they automatically take my payment. One time, my air conditioner went out a couple times and they called and had the heating and air people come out. But it bothered me a little bit that it seemed like the American Home Shield people are kind of on the back burner, because they were taking care of their customers first because it would take sometimes several days for somebody to come. And when something like your air conditioner goes out, you want somebody to come out as quick as possible, especially when it's 95 degrees outside. Still, I would highly recommend to have American Home Shield. My home was built in ’86 and you never know when something unexpected is going to happen. So far, they paid for my water heater and all I had to pay was the 315 for the pan and some vents that they ran out of the storage room.

    The heating place was good service. They were very respectful, especially with the COVID thing. I wasn't sure how people were going to be doing with masks, and they were great. It was like, "You need to see the thermostat, to get in the house and look at that." And he made sure he kept his distance. I was very happy with them and their work.

    And then, a man came and looked at the dishwasher, and they were also good. He told me the problem was with the garbage disposal instead of the dishwasher. And he was able to just do a quick five-minute because I never used Home Shield's services before. We just recently purchased the house in April. So, I didn't know what to expect or how things were going to go. And each time you had a different service done, you have to make a different call. I was like, "Well, wow, I'm gonna have to call somebody else just to do this one little thing for the garbage disposal?" He said, "No."

    My dishwasher wasn't draining, and I have never had a dishwasher before, so I didn't know what to look for. He went straight to the garbage disposal and he said, "Well, somebody put in a new garbage disposal, but they didn't take the plug out." And it's just a quick little five-minute pop with a screwdriver and he got it up and going. I was like, "Ugh, I've been going without a dishwasher since April, doing it all by hand." They were great. They were very professional and personable.

    I have one complaint that there was an offer that Home Shield made for cleaning out dryer ducts, and we called to have someone service ours. We set up an appointment, we waited at the house, no one ever came, no one ever called. I finally called them and they said, "Oh, well, we're just really backed up and we were really busy and we just neglected to call you." I was like, "So my whole entire day, I could have been getting other things done, but I was waiting for you to show, and you never called." I would suggest that they try to do better on calling their clients if they couldn't come to do a service call. Other than that, I would recommend Home Shield's services. It's definitely worth it.

    My husband and I had never owned a home before, so when we were going through with the Realtor and they suggested Home Shield, and I was like, "Well, I don't know if this is gonna be something we'll ever use or not. It might be cheaper just to skip it." But my husband explained it to me, "What if our refrigerator goes out?" Compared to what we're paying, and I was like, "Okay, yeah, you got me on that one." We got a notification from Home Shield in the mail that we're going to be coming up to renew our services with them in April. That is good too that they do some things through the mail to notify people to let them know way ahead of time that it would be time to renew.

    I got familiar with Home Shield because my brother has been dealing with their company for 10 to 11 years. I signed up with them because of his recommendation. I called on the phone and I talked with a representative. There was a question on could I pay for the bill monthly, and then they talked about that I owed $125. I don't know where that came from. But they somehow rectified that problem and made contact to Pinnacle HVAC. And that was resolved, so I was happy about that.

    The gentleman came out on the 20th of November. He diagnosed the situation of my furnace and said that it needed a control board, and that he would go back to his company and notify Home Shield. I called Home Shield yesterday and they reached out to Pinnacle HVAC. And somehow or another, the paperwork got lost in the minutiae with the holiday. It went one way which should have been another way. They said that they got the invoice and they sent the approval back to Pinnacle. I haven't heard anything from either one. I was just waiting to hear from Pinnacle, when they can receive. Other than that, Mike was excellent. He has been doing this for 15 years, so the professionalism was to my expectation.

    The hinges of the dishwasher were bent. Kimbros had to order those and get them. They corrected the problem. Now, I can use it. And then, the icemaker went out. That was the first time. I've had that for 17 years, so, I thought I got my money's worth out of that. Kimbros Appliance was very professional and pleasant. They communicated well over the phone. They tried to help me out. Because even my refrigerators, I wasn't sure it was the icemaker because it would work for a while, and then it would go out for a couple of weeks. It wasn't reliable. But I kept hating to spend the money to get it fixed right now at this particular time. And I'm on a fixed income. But they made me feel really good, and they answered all my questions. I wouldn't have anybody else come in my house to repair my appliances.

    I like Home Shield and the way they operate. But there are two things I don't like. I don't like the automated service because I had a problem with this particular situation because I had to do an add-on. It was hard to get to a representative. Once I did, he didn't put it as an add-on. He put it as a recall. And that caused some confusion on everybody's part. But for Kimbros, they asked me, “Well, you need to call,” and then, “This is what happened.” The representative sometimes was not that helpful. Other than that, I appreciated Home Shield so much. I started with them in ’04. And then, as I moved, I have continued the insurance.

    There were electrical problems in my kitchen and dining room and other things that were on the same circuit. They fixed it for me. They're very pleasant, very efficient and very professional. I sent the request in a couple of days before and the guy said he overlooked it. But at that point, he gave me a time and it was that same day. They came out when they were supposed to. This was my first time to contact AHS and I'm very happy.

    In the early part of last year, I made a claim with American Home Shield about my electric. First, they sent one group out. When the problem started off, they sent another electric company. This went all the way back into the summertime. This latest time I called, the person I talked to was Jay. They claimed that they didn't see any follow-up appointments or anything in regards of this problem. I said, "I don't see how because I've been dealing with this as early part of summer." They sent out one electrician at first who didn't really do much.

    When they sent out Advanced Electric, David came out and he figured out what the problem was. It was like a shortage of something in the ceiling fan in my living room. He told me not to use that for a while. I asked why and he said, "Well, I'm going to have to call American Home Shield and let them know about this problem and everything. And I'll get back to you." He had given me his cell number. I never heard from him from that day on. I turned around and reached out to American Home Shield again. I told them what the situation was because it did happen again. I called back after I didn't hear from David for about a week because he told me within 24 hours and that was when the problem started.

    From then on, about every week, I was calling American Home Shield. I know you have 30 days when you don't have to pay again. I got the runaround from American Home Shield numerous times. I asked to talk to a supervisor and then a lady came on. I talked to her on July 15th at 9:30 in the morning. I explained to her my problem. I said, "You know, this is not right. It's summertime. Y'all don't even reach out to me. I've been with American Home Shield for a while. I have referred practically my whole family and friends to American Home Shield. And for me to be treated like, 'Oh, well. Hey, if you don't like it, you know what you can do,' type of attitude."

    I also said, "My hand is tied because you're giving me the runaround. You keep saying, 'Oh, we'll call you back in 24 hours.' And then that 24 hours goes into a week, seven days. And I'm constantly calling y'all back. I got a list of how many times I have called about this problem. And not once have y'all lift a finger to reach out to me. I have left numerous calls. When I talked to the people, when they couldn't help me, I said, ‘I have requested a supervisor.’” They tell me they're gonna put me on hold. That hold sometimes goes into an hour. But it goes to show them how determined I wanted to talk to a supervisor to the point that they hung up on me.

    This latest time, I had to turn around and pay another $75 two weeks ago for them for Advanced Electric to come back. The guy, David, lied because then when I finally got in touch with him during the summertime, he said, "Oh, the owner, he's out sick and the secretary. So I'm pulling this all by myself. And Jane, I promise you, I'll get back to you." He never did.

    I called on 11/20, and I had to pay another $75. I told them, “I'm on a fixed income. Now, you're gonna charge me." I was told, "Well, ma'am, it's past the 30 days." I said, "But I was calling before the 30 days had left. And you didn't reach out to me at all." Now, I'm getting the runaround again.” They were supposed to contact me over two weeks ago that American Home Shield was going to okay about the panel and stuff. Now, this week, it'll be going into three weeks. That means if I make another call and the 30 days is up, I have to drop another $75.

    I received a reminder from American Home Shield that if I order the annual service on my furnace to make sure it is functioning correctly, it's only $75 instead of a higher amount if I just call them up and say, “I want my furnace looked at.” I took advantage of that. The only thing that was discouraging is that happened in October and I didn't get an appointment until late November.

    The first guy who came out was horrible. He completely changed the settings on my dryer when he checked it and he put it on manual. And he kept saying, "I'm gonna check and see. It's probably the sensors." But when you put it on manual, the sensors are not in play. It's a manual dry. I said that to him and I said, "Well, maybe you need to put it on what I use." "No, no, no, this is what I need to do to check it." He couldn't get it to do anything wrong. It tumbled. I even asked him, "Why don't I put some laundry in?" "No, no, that's fine." My impression of the first guy was that he just wanted to get in and get out as quick as possible.

    On the other hand, the second guy was wonderful. He was personable, knew what he was doing, and immediately knew what the problem was. He tried it on the settings that I used to dry my laundry with a full load of laundry in there drying. Sure enough, it was having a problem. The second guy was great. The only complaint I have is it takes a long time for AHS to notify me that the job is closed. It takes three weeks. Other than that, I found submitting a claim to be very easy. I was very pleased.

    The unit is leaking. We found that out two days ago when AAction Air came back out to do a recheck. They had to put some dye into the system when they first came out to see if there was a leak probably. Because of that leak, it causes water to build up in the pan at the bottom of the system due to the installation when the system was put in. We also found that there's a hole in the pan. When the water builds up, it leaks into the house and drips down into the living room area. But the experience went pretty good because AAction Air was very knowledgeable. The guy knew exactly what to look for. I also had called American Home Shield for my microwave one time when it went out. The guy literally came over within two days or so and fixed it on-site so it was good.

    I like the process with American Home Shield. You log into your portal through your account online and there's a button there that says, “Submit Request for Service.” It gives you the options of what you want the service to be for. Then you put your own notes in there, hit submit, you get a text message, somebody will contact you within 24 to 48 hours and set you up an appointment. American Home Shield is worth it. I recommend it to everybody who at least is a homeowner. Something can break down just like that and to know that you only have to pay $100 for somebody to come out to look at it is worth it. I recommended it to one of my co-workers and she now has it because of all the different plans you can choose from.

    It would be nice for AHS to communicate a little better. We keep having the same issue with our AC unit. We did not appreciate the first guy who came out for the AC very much. He told us that the issue wasn't our AC even though there was water dripping from it and there was a big puddle of water in our hallway. He even pulled the carpet up and saw the water everywhere. At this point, we have mold all over our AC. The people who came yesterday were very sweet. They said the issue was the AC getting clogged up. They fit one of the pipes and blew it out.

    My garbage disposal was leaking and Altstadt came out and replaced it. They were great. Communication was great. They were in and out quickly. They wore masks too. They did have to go to the supply house here in town. They didn't have it on the truck, but it was the same day. I've also submitted a claim for my refrigerator. The claim submission process was easy. I was turned on to the service because my father-in-law has had it for quite some time and he made mention of it. Our house is almost six years old now so I figured things would probably start to break.

    When I called American Home Shield, it took a couple minutes to get through. With COVID it makes it a little bit difficult no matter how you look at it but they answered fairly quickly. I told them what I needed and they took the information for my deductible. It was relatively easy and I had an appointment the very next day.

    The guy from Sears showed up on time as he said he would. He put shoe covers on and had a mask on. He went to the location. I showed him where the washing machine was and when he was done, everything was cleaned up. There was no mess and there was nothing that I had to do. Everything was fine. We talked a little bit and he told me about how much soap to use or how much not to use. He said a lot of people over-put soap in there and it gets clogged up. He cleaned up the part of the unit which was needed to be cleaned up and did a very nice job. American Home Shield is well worth it. It's worth the effort and the cost. You're guaranteed what you're getting. I've had other companies where I've had to wait and wait on things but AHS have been very good and fast. Everything was done professionally.

So insurance gives the plus point and it does not matter if in one year, we don't need any repair. But maybe on the third year, we'll need some sort of repair regarding heating and cooling, so we'll need the insurance. Recently, we were having a heating issue where initially, the furnace was okay. But suddenly, it stopped working. We submitted an online request with AHS and the process was easy. The techs they sent out found that the inducer motor was not working and they replaced it.

He went into the basement and he cleaned up the mess. He made sure to do the whole analysis of the furnace and got the heat working. Then he also scheduled a second appointment to put in a switch. He came back within a week and he installed it just this week. When he came back into the home, the same thing, he had protective gear, was timely and not wasting a lot of time, had very professional conduct and spoke to me very clearly. He broke down what was going on. I definitely would have him come back again.

    The process to get someone is very easy with American Home Shield. We call and they send somebody out usually within days. The $75 co-pay is taken out of our account. I don't have to worry about sending a check or giving them my credit card. It's all automatic. The problem that we're having is with our washing machine. AHS sent somebody out and he took probably two weeks because he kept saying he had to get the parts. He said he finally fixed it so he left and the washing machine was still doing the same thing. So, we called him back and this guy was supposed to come out and he never showed up. So we called AHS and they sent somebody else out again but it cost us another $75. The second guy was from Sears and to this day, our washing machine still leaks. It still sounds like a thrashing and it's not fixed. We should not have had to pay another $75 to get it fixed but that was what they told us. So, I'm a little disappointed in that.

    On the other hand, we had a problem with our dishwasher and a guy came out. He ordered a part, came back out and fixed it. It was fine. Then, our heater went out and the guy had to order a part. Then he found out that he had the part and he came back the next day. He worked forever on it but it worked. I was astonished and in awe that he would stay that long to make sure it was working. So, we were very pleased with him. To our way of thinking, it’s worth the money. This is not the fault of AHS but the contractors they're hiring. Still, we've recommended AHS to our daughter and to some other people.

    I've referred AHS before, and I'll refer them again. I'm pleased with the service. The local service company contacted me very quickly to schedule when they would come in. They came in, diagnosed the issue, said they would have to order the parts and estimated the parts would take about 8 to 10 days to get. But the parts came in in about 4 to 5 days. They called me, scheduled, came back out the very next day, installed the parts, and everything's working.

    We weren't getting heat from the furnace and it kind of made me nervous because of the cold weather. The tech from All Temp came out and he set it up so it would run and would kick in automatically until he could get the part. Then he went to get the part. They gave him the wrong one, so he had to go back and get the correct one. He went beyond what he should do. I'm very satisfied with him. He was a really nice guy. I would do business with him any time. American Home Shield was very good. They helped right away. I would tell others I highly recommend them.

They said that they would have to order a part and it might take a couple of days. But the guy said he would try and get it as quick as he could and that's exactly what he did. It was that same night that they sent me an email saying that they would be out the next day. He came back the next day in the afternoon and put it in. My husband said he asked any questions he had and he answered them. I never met them personally but with the interaction I had through texting with them, they responded very quickly.

    I was not able to close the garage door with the garage door opener nor the keypad and when I pushed the knob on the side of the house, I had to keep it pushed all the way in before it would close. I didn’t have any difficulty in submitting the claim to American Home Shield this time because I did it online. Trying to get someone on the phone to put in the work order is difficult at times. The contractor came and took care of it. AHS is an excellent program because $75 to get whatever it is repaired is a lot cheaper than paying out of pocket. It's a great product to have.

    The Sundance Company came in for a leaky faucet. When the guy was changing the faucets, for some reason, the plumbing started leaking everywhere and he had to replace it. He replaced it with an older tubing that is no longer used in new constructions or to fix anything. Apparently, that was something that he shouldn't have done. Five months went by and the faucet just fell apart because it wasn't tightened because the tubing wasn't placed correctly. So I called the second claim for somebody to come and fix this faucet.

    Ally Plumbing changed the plumbing. Their plumber did a good job. And it’s working. The plumber was very good, not like the other guy that came over and didn’t have any time. Since that guy didn't have any time, he started throwing things around and breaking stuff. But the faucet is still not placed correctly. So I'm just gonna go ahead and pay, on the side, somebody to place a new faucet on it. The tubing that is now there is not the right tubing for the faucet. It’s separated from the wall and there’s a huge stain. It works but it's just not the way I like it.

    My dishwasher wouldn't drain so it was causing some bad smells and it wasn't completing the cycle. The guy ordered what he was supposed to but the wrong part came. It took two or three weeks but everything else was fine. The company was a son and a father. They were both nice gentlemen and did good work. But I called somebody out probably a year or so before and it was kind of the same issue. They kind of did a little something to get it passed. The same issue kept on happening probably about two or three months after that. I hate when you call in again about the same issue and you're paying your fee again.

    I've had a similar situation with the second claim I had with my basement AC unit. There's something funny with the wiring in the unit. When I try to cut my heat on, it won't work. It would just blow cold. They'll do something with the wiring but when it gets hot, then I gotta call again because now it's just blowing hot. They're not fixing the actual problem. They're just hardwiring whatever it is. Also, when I call in, I'm talking to somebody in the Philippines and they can never make any decisions. When I was complaining about the thing in the basement and told them it was the fourth time I've called, they were reading a script almost.

    Myers Comfort Specialists came out to look at the heater. When you would turn on the thermostat, it would sound like it was coming on and it would shut itself off. It was easy to submit the claim through the website. Within 10 minutes of submitting the form, we got a text from Myers and it allowed me to schedule my favorite time, the next best, and the third-best time for them to come out. I liked it a lot. We did it on Friday and the tech came in on a Monday.

    Myers called us when the tech was 10 minutes away to let us know and that call was very helpful. He was there on time and within the timeframe that we selected. He got the repair done within less than 30 minutes. He was nice, respectful to my mom, and then was good to go. Overall, I'm pretty satisfied. I've been with American Home Shield for 10 years and I highly recommend them because they're easy to contact, easy to send in a claim, and they use comparable vendors.

    I'm not happy with American Home Shield. Their accounting department is supposed to call me back to tell me why I've been overcharged 20 bucks a month for the last two months. The payment comes out of my account automatically. Their reps were pretty good, except I was on hold for about a half-hour the other day and it was the most annoying holding music. They have this horrible jazz that doesn't even meet the definition of music. So, by the time I got back on the phone after a half-hour, I was not in a good mood. The people have been pretty decent but some of them have trouble speaking clearly. The lady I spoke to used this term and I had to have her spell it. It didn't sound anything like what she was saying. They really need to learn how to enunciate the correct language.

    When I talked to the original gentleman when I signed up, the statistics spoke for themselves as far as home many people that American Home Shield had. They have a couple of million customers, so it's quite a few. I've had a good experience with AHS. But I don't like fact that they take more money than they're supposed to and no one really knows what they're doing in the accounting department. They actually put a pool coverage for my pool on my coverage and I didn't ask for it. I would never have done that because for the $100 fee, I could fix most problems on the pool myself.

    I had a refrigerator icemaker claim and I had it taken care of with no problem. Then they're coming out to rebuild the clothes washer next Friday. Appliance Care Experts did the refrigerator. Their tech was a little abrasive but he did a nice job. He knew what he was doing. I was trying to be helpful so I had done some research on it and told him that I had pretty much figured out what the problem was. But ultimately, I was wrong and it ticked him off. I gave him a tip when he left and apologized to him. All in all, it was a good experience. If I had another appliance go out, I would definitely be okay with them coming back out to work on it.

    American Home Shield is a pretty good setup and I've already recommended them to a couple of people. Now, I won't be needing it. But I had another place I was thinking about getting that coverage. It's a good investment. $100 is a big hit to a lot of people nowadays but at the same time, if you're talking about a $1,000 washing machine, it's nice. I also like that they stay on it until you are satisfied. That has been a plus rather than calling somebody and they come out, look at it and don't know how to fix it where you're just wasting your money or your time, and time is money. Overall, I'm satisfied and I'm not canceling the insurance. I just wish they get my billing situation cleared up.

    I had to use Home Shield twice this past month. Once for my refrigerator and once for my swimming pool. Home Shields’s response was excellent. I called them and they had somebody come out within two or three days, which is the best you can expect under today's circumstances. But Home Shield could do a little bit better job in vetting their vendors. I wouldn't let the guy I had with the refrigerator in my house a second time. I took care of it myself.

    The guy was awful. He tried to sell me a $700 computer chip for my refrigerator when all I needed was to clean the coils. It was like he was trying to rip me off and I realized that. But some other person who's not as knowledgeable would be very susceptible. But it wasn't Home Shield’s fault. They send the person here, thinking that they're going to do a reputable job. Sometimes, you get a bad vendor. But I'm satisfied with Home Shield. The consumer just have to do due diligence. But the guy that took care of my pool was outstanding. I have a regular pool guy, but this guy did a great job. He came in, looked at it and told me what the problem was. He said he gotta come back, but he would fix it temporarily. Then he was back in two days.

    I usually do my claims over the phone. I don't like to do it online. I'm leery of putting anything online anymore. I usually call or use the automated system on the phone. If I call at 9 o'clock, I have an email from them by 11 o'clock saying that the vendor has been notified, and the name and telephone number of the vendor. I can get in touch with the vendor. They're very good in terms of responding immediately and setting up a vendor. Within 24 hours, I always get an email or call from the vendor.

    As soon as the vendor gets here, I take his temperature, I ask him a lot of questions, and then, you can get a feel for what's going on. I've had a problem with my pool a couple of times, and they keep sending the same company. They are great. I'm on a first-name basis with the guy. But I had an interesting incident with Home Shield about three years ago. I had water tank leak so they sent a vendor. This guy was awful. He tried to talk me into replacing what I had. The tank had to be replaced. So I called American Home Shield and I said I wanted to replace the tank that I had. They said the contract only calls for $1,000. I asked if I could have the money and they said, “Sure.” They were very good in that regard. But the vendor was lousy.

They're taking care of this one but it just took a week or two before I even got an answer. It takes a long time to get some feedback when you do put in a claim, but it should be done in a day or two, at least, to acknowledge that they're looking for someone and they haven't found one yet. A little follow up would be better. It took a long time to find out that AHS couldn’t find anybody to help me on my roof issue. I ended up contacting our contract company. We’re contracted through an organization through our nationwide real estate site. So I just contact the person who works corporately, they contact American Home Shield, and they will finally get some results.

I had service calls through American Home Shield two times in the past and the reps did not fix it properly and the problems remain. They just put like a Band-Aid on it. It was fixed for a month or two, and then it came right back. But Sears had gotten it right.

    I called my claim in. It wanted me to do it automatically through the telephone prompts, and I wanted to speak to somebody about it. This was like the same claims that I was doing multiple times. When you call, you go through the automated system. The automated system tried to get me to process it, which is normally okay, but I wanted an operator and that was a little difficult to try to get to an operator.

    Your experience with American Home Shield is really dependent upon the contractor that they send to you. They send a poor contractor, you got a poor experience with the company overall. That was kind of what happened to me the first two times. If they can do a good contractor in someone's home to make the repair, they'll be happy and satisfied. It's all a question of the contractors American Home Shield uses. The contractors, when they come into your home, are American Home Shield. If they do a good job, you're happy. If they don't, then not so much.

    My heater went out. I called American Home Shield to file my claim. It was very easy. Then I had somebody out the next day. I wasn't there. My husband was. He said the tech explained everything to him, showed him the part he took out, showed him the new part, and was gone within an hour or so. All in all, I love the coverage with American Home Shield. I love the fact that they come out so quickly. I don't care who you talk to on the telephone. They're always so nice and polite and professional. Now, there are some things that they can't fix.

    Sears was out here for a dishwasher repair and the oven, and they were perfectly fine. I've got seven contracts with American Home Shield. The only problem I really have with them is that, you ask them if something's covered, they tell you yes, and then sometimes you find out that it's not, after the service person has come.

    I always call AHS for my claims because I'm low vision. It's just a very long wait, sometimes as much as an hour. But there often is a thing where you can opt out and have them call you back. I have suggested American Home Shield to some people. They have replaced some items with me. The other day, I had plumbers here who were great.

    I filed a claim online with AHS and the process was easy. Then, someone called me really quickly, within two minutes, which was a great experience. The tech came out because our third-floor toilet was leaking and by the time we caught it, it had leaked through the walls all the way into the first floor. We knew it was coming from the toilet, there was water all over the floor, but we weren't sure what exactly it was coming from. We were able to turn the water off and drain the toilet. Then the next morning, things were clearly drying, so we could tell that was the source.

    But I was really disappointed with the gentleman that came out to address our issues with that. This is our new home and we haven't had any issues or had to use a home warranty company or a plumber before. So, really went with the flow, no pun intended, but then, I had a lot of questions after the fact. He didn't wear a mask and we're in Columbus, Ohio where the covid cases are really high right now. But I didn't say anything to him as I was trying to avoid conflict because I so desperately wanted someone to tell us what the problem was and help us fix it. He was only here for four minutes though and we have security cameras. He just looked at the toilet and didn't take anything apart. He said he knew what the issue was and that he could fix it. I was taken aback and I asked how he knew. Then he left and I haven't heard anything else. He wrote me a diagnosis to give to our insurance company, but I'm having to get a second opinion because I was told that the repair wasn't covered by the warranty company.

    I was really surprised that there wasn't anything further than just a visual assessment. The mask thing was disturbing, too. I’m really displeased that I spent $75 to have a tech come out, not wearing masks, spend four minutes, and tell me he couldn't help me. It was a complete waste of time and money. I had to take time off from work, so I lost revenue there. Now, I'm going to have to pay another plumber to hopefully tell me what's really wrong and fix it. So, it’s like double jeopardy.

    The burners on our oven have been working but the igniter in the baking part of the oven wasn't working. We replaced the igniter but that didn't do anything. So, we had the technician come out to look at it to see if he could figure out what was going on. He was able to repair the unit. He fixed the panel on the back of the oven because there were some wires that were loose.

    However, it was ironic because it happened again the day after Thanksgiving. We took the back panel off to jiggle the wires but that didn't do anything. And the igniter is brand new so I'm not sure it solved the problem. But then it was broken a couple of days later. I don't know if we need to pay the $75 again to have them come out or if there is a way to see if we can have somebody else come out without the deductible since the tech didn’t fix it the first time. Other than that, we had our furnace go out right after we moved in and AHS saved the day with helping us get that replaced without any out of pocket. It’s exceptional. We’re happy.

    Our experience with AHS has been very good. The furnace quit running altogether. I like the idea that when I called them, they called back very quickly. Then, they got somebody set up and the company that had set up got up here right on time and it was good. They tested it out and they thought it was the low-pressure switch. They replaced that. But he got a bad part, so he had to bring another part in. He put it in there. It ran good for about 24 hours, and then it would kick out. So they came back up and they tracked it out and it was the control board down there. He put it in and it's been running like a champ ever since. These guys that came up with the furnace were very good. We also had a claim with the microwave. It just absolutely quit. They brought a guy up here and looked at it. He said, "You can't do it." So we got a new one.

    American Home Shield has a hard pass rule of not looking to replace and forcing the consumer to have to take a piecemeal fix. If the unit calls for a replacement, whatever it is, it should be replaced. I informed American Home Shield that because of COVID-19, the manufacturer that deals with my unit was shut down throughout the whole summer. I was given a piecemeal situation until the manufacturer was back open again. The unit was not functioning properly, but the servicer said that they don't replace them. They just fix them. It is working, but I know that I have a unit that is not efficient and that’s my biggest concern. Everything else was fine. The servicer showed up on time and serviced the unit.

    I just moved into the property and I was going off of my inspection from the purchase of the home, things that I needed to rectify, so I called a plumber out. He came out to do an inspection, and he said, “Oh, yeah, we can do a flush for 175.” He said there didn't seem to be any issues. I have a tankless water heater and I wanted to get a water heater flush, but then the plumber said that the hot water valve was broken, so he wasn't able to do the flush. I was a little leery of it because his shirt was all wet, so it looked like he broke it. I went along and called my warranty, and American Home Shield sent out Jorge.

    I paid the $75 to have Jorge come out and assess everything and he told me initially that it wasn't broken. He also said it would just be a 185 for the flush, but when he came back and tried to do it, he said the valve was broken. Knowing ahead of time whether or not something's broken so that I can be more prepared to request what I needed to get done would be nice, but maybe you’re not able to see that it’s broken until you go through with the flush. That’s what happened with the previous plumber as well.

    I had to get the valve repaired. Because it was a second opinion, it made me believe that it was broken. I went along and got it all done in one sweep. He was able to do the flush and repair the valve. I paid a total of $700. It was way more than I anticipated to spend, but I was prepared because the other guy said that it was broken, and he gave me the same quote. Jorge was nice and helpful, and he talked to me about in the future, getting a water conditioner to help keep the water and the pipes clear. I had a pleasant overall experience besides having to pay more than what I wanted to pay.

    Joseph, the guy that came out to service the oven, was very professional and extremely nice. He wore his face mask. His first visit was about 20 minutes. He explained what was wrong and he repaired it. He had to come back a second time because after he fixed the smell, it's not holding heat. They had to order a part for me. The last email I read was dated the 24th and it said that they are waiting on the part to come in and fix it.

    I've had three claims at about three months and every time, I say thank God we have the American Home Shield. We had Sears which had became extremely horrible. Compared to Sears, I am extremely pleased with American Home Shield. We had a claim for the washer and it took under two weeks to get the replacement in. The workers were very professional. They were here under 25 minutes to remove the old washer and install the new one. That was a good experience. When the refrigerator upstairs stopped getting cold, the repairman had to make two visits. The first time he came, he was under 25 minutes. He had to order a part and came back within a two-week time period. It took him, again, under 25 minutes.

    For each one of the repair people who came, they were very professional with their masks. I've never had to ask one of them to put on their mask. They didn't take it off. It wasn't under their nose or on their chin. It was covering their nose and their mouth area the whole time they were here. It was raining that day when the first repairman came and he put on the foot covers along with his mask at the door.

    If it wasn't for the lady on the commercial riding down the street talking about her AC gone, I don't think we would have gotten American Home Shield. We were shopping and her commercials kept standing out in my mind. The advertisement to get them was good and the service has been great except for the the 800 number call in. It is impossible to get in with the call in. They're not picking up at all and that's terrible because some people, especially elders, don't necessarily know how to use the website.

    I had American Home Shield previously when I purchased the home and I've had it in other homes. I've had this current policy for about six months. There are good things about them but there are definitely some improvements needed. It is a good program for small fixes but I wouldn't say it's good for quick fixes. The electrical claim wasn't an emergency situation and the guy got out here the next day. That's because that vendor happened to be professional. But I had a plumbing claim in the past month which was an emergency. The process of entering everything online and putting in a ticket is great. After that point, dealing with American Home Shield was horrible. It's difficult to get someone that understands you on the phone. There's no management available to escalate an issue until you call about five times and are on hold for very long periods of time.

    I had a really unprofessional plumber come here and did not do anything to fix the issue. It took a month and a half to get a different plumber to come back out, but they didn't get a different plumber. They sent the same guy and he was a complete jerk. He still didn't fix the problem. I had to pay to get it fixed on my own outside of American Home Shield.

    There have been plenty of times that AA Dependable Appliance has come out. The most recent was for the dryer and the guy fixed that on the spot. The cooktop's been the main thing. It just doesn't work. It has error messages. They had already ordered two new parts and they didn't work. As the guy was walking out the door, he said, "There's one more part that may work, but I'm not really sure. We'll have to talk to American Home Shield." The cooktop is 11 years old. I called American Home Shield and told them, "You all might want to consider replacement. I know that's not optimum, but you're going to keep spending money on parts perhaps." It didn't go anywhere 'cause the next thing I heard was that a new part was coming on December 7th. I'm beside myself with frustration. I haven't been able to cook for eight weeks.

    We've been hassling. They found a company that works on the brand but I couldn't get an appointment for two weeks. They came and hadn't shown by 4:00. I decided I better call them to see if they were en route but the phone number was no longer active. They went out of business. I called American Home Shield, they put me over to the contract department, and they got the same result. So then, we started all over with another company. We've tried all these different parts. I couldn't do Thanksgiving dinner this year. I can't do Christmas dinner for that matter. I'm in the process of trying to sell my house and I can't sell a house with a stove that doesn't work.

    I would like American Home Shield to take into consideration the fact of continually replacing parts and leaving the customer stranded on something critical that's needed in the home in order to avoid replacement. I don't know what's changed, but what has changed for me in this year is there must be call centers around the world, not just in the United States. I'm getting people that are difficult to understand. I think sometimes they have difficulty understanding me because there's a language barrier. That's been very frustrating to me. The other thing that's frustrating is I hate that every time I say something, they go, "I understand totally, ma'am. I'm so sorry." I would hear that 15 times in a three-minute conversation. I just want to pull my ear out.

    The guy from Sigmond Plumbing didn't wait around long enough to make sure that the toilet was running. Also, the guy was pretty arrogant to my mom. He said at least we can still flush it and left. I had to call them out for the third time and I went in there. He had somebody else with him, which I'm assuming was his supervisor by the way they were acting, and he was totally different. He just needed to adjust the chain. It was something minor that he could've taken care of the first time. But everything's fixed now and it's all okay. I like AHS and it's great for what we need right now.

    Our heater had quit working. Robert from R&K had come out. When he first got here, he thought maybe it was the zone board that needed to be replaced. But he had gotten his little gauge out and was checking points on the electronics. It found that there was a relay that lost resistance. He replaced that part and everything came back on. He was here for about 35 minutes tops. So, it was a good experience.

    As soon as the builder's warranty ran out in the house that we live in now, we got American Home Shield. We had it in our last home prior to that. It’s nice to be able to have somebody you can call and get something fixed whenever it inevitably goes wrong, especially when dealing with the house. They charge their monthly fee. They did bump the service call cost of it. It used to be like $60 or $70 and they bumped it up to $100. But usually, if somebody's gonna come out and fix some of those issues, some are pretty expensive. So, that $100 really isn’t that big a deal in the grand scheme of things.

According to my tenant, the individual went out, went up the attic, and tied the tube that had separated and they were getting good heat so everything was taken care of.

    When I had a frozen line in my freezer, a nice gentleman came out and took care of it. He did it in one day. However, I’ve had some back and forth with what AHS covers and what they don't. We also had miscommunication. The problem is some of their vendors that they suggest aren't available. I have another property that I used them for. They had to take the cabinet off to get to the part. They couldn't fix it but they never came to put the cabinet back on so I had to put the cabinet back together myself. That was kind of a bum deal. I called American Home Shield on it and they said that was up to the vendor. I called the vendor and they said, “As far as we're concerned, the claim has been closed and we're not coming out,” so there I was having to put the screws back into the side of the cabinet which I'm capable of doing but that's not what I pay for.

    I was having problem with the heating and air conditioning. The HVAC people called for the job and when they came in, they said that it was an electrical problem. Then, AHS called JT's Electrical Services for the job and they came in. They were really wonderful in scheduling the appointment and their rep, Debbie, was awesome. In fact, she was more helpful than American Home Shield. Then, the techs had to come back again because the system went out again the very next day.

    I was trying to get in touch with American Home Shield but I could not. I called JT's Electrical Services back, then Debbie called American Home Shield and got everything taken care of. After that, the technician came and he was very helpful. He did a great job and he was very thorough. But the system went out again and they were unable to get a part before two weeks. Debbie followed up and called back to make sure because American Home Shield wasn't doing a good job.

    So I'm in my house with no heat with small children and my elderly father. And at this point, I'm not very happy with that. But JT Electrical Services did a great job and they did the job that American Home Shield should have been doing. Debbie called me back even if she did not have to do that. She also got American Home Shield on the phone at the same time and did what she could from her end. But this has been going on for two weeks now and I'm getting a cold. We've had below freezing temperatures the last three nights and it was 29 degrees.

    I've asked for a supervisor to call me and AHS told me they would have a supervisor call me. But that was last week and no one has called me. I called them yesterday and again asked for supervisor but there was none. The girl told me that I just have to wait and it seems to me that when the call was put in, it was put in as expedited. But two weeks is not what I call expediting anything and I don't understand why they can't order a part overnight.

    We're in the United States where you can ship things overnight. So they're telling me that they're shipping it the cheapest way that you can ship it and that it's going to take 14 days to get here. We're in our winter season now and that's heartless. They could have even asked me if I would pay the cost to ship it over and I would pay the cost to ship it overnight than to have my children and my dad sitting in a cold home. But they didn't even give me that option. So, I'm amazed at the lack of their concern. Aside from that, I left AHS before and came back to give them another chance. But they're a terrible company and they don't honor what they say. I've also recommended so many people to them and they've had problems as well.

    I have another call out for AHS that they are dragging their heels on as well. It's a plumbing issue and they gave me the big runaround. There were two leaks in my home in my bathroom and when I called them, I said my ceiling was leaking behind the wall somewhere. It was leaking because the water was leaking out into my foyer and my rug was soiled. And it's ruined now because it's been two weeks. That claim was supposed to be expedited as well. They sent someone in to do the job and when they came in, they cut a hole out in my ceiling and they saw the leak there. But they said they couldn't repair what was going on behind the wall because they didn't have the tools to get back there to see what was going on.

    So American Home Shield called someone else and when they came in, they fixed the leak in the ceiling. But they didn't fix whatever was going on behind the wall, which is amazing to me because in order for you to get to that bathroom, you have to walk through my foyer where you can see the carpet is wet and starting to mold along the floor board. I also explained to them that when you go into the bathroom, you can see the puckering behind the mirror. So something is going on back there. But the techs only fixed a pipe where the previous contractor had cut out and left a hole in the ceiling. Then they said that they don't close it up. So, I had to call a contractor to replace the drywall.

    I asked my husband if the water was spraying when they opened up the ceiling and he said it wasn't. But that doesn't explain why the wall is still wet, there's still water, and the carpet is still not drying. When the contractor came in for the drywall, he touched the wall and his hand went through the wall. That was how wet it was. So, he cut out the piece of the wall where the water had been seeping into the foyer and said that I had a leak back there. So from the 23rd of November, the water is still dripping behind there.

    I called AHS yesterday and told them that the techs didn't fix the problem, only a part of it. Their rep then said that that would be another call. But I told her that it's not a separate call, it's the same call. Because when I called in, I said to them that there was a leak in the ceiling and something was going on behind the wall but no one addressed what was going on behind the wall. Apparently, the agent who took the call only wrote that there was a leak in the ceiling and it was causing secondary problems. When I asked her to read what their notes said, she said the leaks have not been fixed because the first contractor did not have the tools to fix the leaks. So I told her that if their notes said leaks, in plural, why was she trying to charge me for a separate call. She then said that that was just how they say it.

    I was on the phone with her for almost an hour and she refused to put a supervisor on the phone. She put me on hold as well and I know that tactic. They put you on hold, come back again, put you on hold, and come back again. That tactic only adds insult to injury. Then, she was telling me to give them 24 hours because they have to listen to the tapes and a supervisor would call me. But today is the end of the 24 hours and I haven't heard from anyone. I have a pail there and towels trying to catch the water because I need that wall to dry out as mold is starting to form.

    Aside from that, when I called to place the call for the plumbing issue, they told me they'd be sending out Price Right. But when my husband learned that they'd be coming, he told me that they were the ones who came out a year or so ago and did the terrible job. He said the guy was very rude and that the techs left but didn't finish the job and it was a mess. So I called AHS back and asked if it was possible to use another contractor. I told them that we had a bad experience with Price Right and we didn't want to use them. The rep said they if they scheduled someone else, we had to pay to put in another call for another contractor, then they'd refund our money. But no one had even called me yet to schedule what day they were coming out and AHS could just give the order to another contractor at that point. But she said no, so I paid again and waited for the refund on the previous call.

    When JT Electrical called and they came out the second day, the woman from JT Electrical called American Home Shield and asked for the order. She said they were going see what was going on there to make sure it was not electrical. She said she was pretty sure that their guy fixed it, but they were going to double-check because we have young children in the home and an elderly person. She said she wanted to make sure that they did all that they could do and there was no, "Okay, let me get another $100 from this family." It was like she worked for American Home Shield. She took care of all of the scheduling issue, then she made sure that she had her people call Legum's, the HVAC people, explain what they had done, and then, them talking amongst themselves, determined that it was an HVAC problem now. I was amazed and speechless because she did not have to do that.

    But here was American Home Shield who wanted to charge me again to place a call that they never fully activated to begin with. Then, when I asked who they'd be using for my claim, they said they were going to use Price Right and that we couldn't change the people. So they just took another $100 from me and they were still using Price Right anyway, but they haven't refunded me the first $100 that I paid. I have never been treated so terribly and now I am going to reach out to the corporate office. I will also never recommend them to anyone else again and I'm going to post on social media about the terrible service.

    Other than that, the techs came back to shut the heat and said it was leaking carbon monoxide. I told AHS that every year, we'd have a problem with this heater. Clearly, that furnace is not working well, so I asked why don't they just replace it. They said that as long as they can fix it, they'll fix it. Also, I don't know what part they're going to get, but I'm not going to feel comfortable knowing that the furnace was leaking carbon monoxide.

    It was a clog in my sink drain. They had the right equipment on their truck. They used a snake that drilled, and the first go-round, it didn’t work. So they stuck to it, and the second time they attempted, they got it. They were very professional, very clean. With COVID, they had masks and they put on booties. We appreciated that. And they were timely, because they got to the problem, worked on it, and got it fixed within an hour. They were excellent. They addressed the problem.

Submitting a claim with them was very easy, too. I appreciate that I did it online recently and I would get a text acknowledging that I had submitted it. One of the times that we had a tech come out was a follow-up visit because the first time the techs came out, they thought it was something loose then the appliance broke again. They diagnosed it, then fixed it. So, I wasn't charged for the follow-up and it was very good. Some techs also came out for the heating system and they were very fast in responding.

The repairman fixed it in no time at all and exactly what it was. He was very informative. He gave me a lot of information about the dishwasher and what I should and shouldn't do. He noticed that we use the pods and he said, "Don't put those in the soap dispenser because it dissolves too late, and it could leave a residue on your glasses. So just put it in the bottom of the dishwasher." I've recommended to all of my children who own homes that if they're going to get a home warranty, they should get it through AHS.

    We had a leak on a damaged kitchen pipe and the contractor was able to fix it. They were excellent and very professional. They came in with masks and covers for their shoes so, their protocol for COVID was great. My husband and I were very pleased. We have had experiences in the past with American Home Shield and we've always had good luck. Things have always been covered and what’s not covered is clear from the contract. The experience with AHS was superior and the plumber was wonderful.

    SAP Services looked through our hot water heater. It turned out that the heater itself was fine but the burner wasn't turned on. We had our other heater replaced by American Home Shield two years ago and the guy failed to reignite the other heater. So for two years, we had just one heater running. We relit the burner and that was it. The tech was great. We've been with AHS for five years and we like the savings.

    The dishwasher went out. AHS had me contact Attwoods Appliance Repair. They came out and assessed the problem and they contacted AHS. AHS approved for them to come put a new motor in it. It works fine now. Everything was easy when submitting the claim with AHS. Our experience with them has been good so far.

    We had electrical issues around the house. Outlets and the lights on the fan were not working. The came on time and did what he needed to do. The tech was nice. He didn't find any issues other than a remote to a ceiling fan that we're not gonna have repaired so everything seemed to be okay. Having Home Shield gives a peace of mind.

    The technician that came out was very knowledgeable and timely, and everything was done very well. He was very knowledgeable with the product. They were trained authorized dealer, which was good. He did a thorough assessment on what the problem was before coming up with a solution so that it was a final solution instead of just putting a band-aid on it. Right now, we are not using the AC because the temperature’s changed. But we used it for about a week after it was done and it worked fine. It was a really good experience. Submitting a claim through American Home Shield was good, streamlined, very clear and concise. I knew exactly what I needed to do. The first time I used it, it was very disappointing tthough. I don't think American Home Shield's worth buying. I wouldn't advise buying into it.

    Realty Rekey was really great. The technician was very professional and he did the job in no time. He was in and out and it was a very adequate service. We recently had an issue with our dishwasher and so we had another claim with American Home Shield. We had them come out for the furnace inspection, too. As far as the dishwasher, we thought the tech fixed it. He has to come back out next Tuesday because after he left and we tried to use it and turn it on, it wasn't turning on. He seemed really great and professional, and it seemed like it worked after he left, and then, the minute he left, it didn't work. Overall, AHS has been really great and really helpful and hopefully, we continue to have good, positive experiences overall with them.

    There was a bunch of air going into the pipes. It's happened before. You could hear gurgling and the water level would go down. After a while, it'll start backing up into the bathtub. They wanted to get it before it got that far, like nip it in the bud. They were polite, on time, professional and helpful. I would recommend AHS.

    Submitting claims has been super easy. I like that part about American Home Shield's system. Air conditioners are different because that's a different class of people that work on air conditioners. Apart from that, I've done plumbing and my refrigerator wasn't covered, but now it is. When we bought the house, there wasn’t one here and we bought a brand-new one. Now, I've done my washer as well. I haven't done my dryer, but if anything happens to my dryer, I'm calling the company that serviced my washer. Other things have been fairly easy to deal with, but the guy who did my washer was super nice. It was not just nice as in friendly, but nice as in he did his job. He knew what he was doing, and he let me know how it was gonna be.

    My washer is 10 years old, but it was brand-new when we bought it. The repair guy cared about the temperature in the world right now. He had his mask. He came in. He did the job. He called me when he was finished, or when he had to leave, and then tell me that they would call and tell me they’d come back. He told me this was gonna happen, and then he did it. He didn’t stop until he was finished. He also told me when he had to do something different and then, he followed up. Whatever thing broke on my washer, he didn't have the part when he got here, but he looked to see what it was, found out what it was, then he went and got it.

    When he couldn't take off something, he called somebody and they came to help him. When they got the part back, he came and put it on then, something else got loose. He had to order a new part then he came back here. One thing I like about this company more than any other company that American Home Shield has ever sent to me is that I didn't have to call them and say, “When are you coming back?” The guy said, “Oh, yeah, I'll be back. I'm just gonna order a part, and then we'll call and make an appointment.” and then, that company just called me. It wasn't like I was worried. Also, continuity of care is important in anything you do and that guy was the same one who came out every time. There was never a different person.

    It takes so long for AHS to answer the phone and then, they keep putting another connection and there's another wait there. It's about an hour to get through, which is ridiculous. One time, I had to get very out of hand with my conversation with them because they thought it was something I could wait for a year. I had a backup in the toilet and I told them it stunk in there. I had to call several times for my plumbing to be taken care of and I had to get vulgar. I was just so mad. I didn't care what I said. Finally, they got somebody out here. Also, I had a plug that caught on fire and I didn't know how far the burnt was. I was afraid to go to sleep. I couldn't get through AHS so I called an outside contractor. They should've given me back my money due to the situation. AHS has good workers but their service is so bad, it's pathetic.

    The sensors on the return air failed and along with it, it kinda took the circuit board out. I made the claim and Atchley responded pretty quickly. They came down and assessed the problem. They determined the part that needed to be ordered and they ordered it. Then, they came back and fixed it. I wish the part could be delivered more quickly but I was pretty happy with how they handled it. It was an overall good experience.

    I love American Home Shield, I've been with them before and I've never had a problem. I had an issue the first time recently. The tech that came out fixed everything but told me he had to wait to get approval to fix the wire outside. I said, “But that’s still electrical.” He didn't really start till it rained real bad. I didn't argue with the guy, cause I told him, work was done on the house a year ago. But my plug just started working last week. I said, “that pipe was bent like that, when I first bought this house.” He said, “Looks like some loose wires here."

    He disconnected the plug for me so it won't short the other side. It wasn't covered, so, I just said, I'd just get that fixed, myself. But the guy that came and did my dryer yesterday was really great. He cleaned up after himself and he was really quick and very courteous. AHS is a good plan to have because you don't have to go around searching for contractors. It's also a one-time fee for each issue. I really recommend it. But it will be helpful for them to educate the technicians. Some of them ask what's covered and what's not. They have to make a diagnosis, but it leaves the customers hanging when they're telling the truth about something and then that issue still doesn't get fixed.

    The experience wasn’t good at first. AHS sent a contractor who did a terrible job. It looked like a bunch of kids came in and started fooling around and didn't know how to weld, left chips and stuff all over the place, and used the wrong stuff to put two pipes together. You always have to be worried about interaction between two different metals and there's a lot of material that when you put two pipes together, depending on what the two pipes are made of, you use a certain kind of a sealant. They even used the wrong type of sealant there.

    I called and complained about it. AHS did send some other company out who corrected the problem at no extra cost to me so I would give them kudos for that. It did cost me more than it should though because the things that this other contractor said they needed to do, AHS said that it was not covered or was above and beyond what they cover for that kind of thing. I ended up having to pay a few hundred extra dollars and it turned out it didn’t really need to be done. I would never use them as a contractor.

    I had a notice that the policy was up for renewal so I went ahead, renewed and paid in full for the whole year. But a week and a half later, I had these problems just before the new contract went into effect. I guess AHS charges whatever they spend on the old contract but the process is easy. You got to expect now with covid that AHS doesn't have as many people working for them. So if you had to be on the phone waiting a little bit longer, you got to deal with it.
