I came into the laundry room and there was water all over my floor and it flowed into my garage. It came from after we had a workman come out and look at it. It was the water heater that was leaking. I called American Home Shield right away and a contractor set up a time. Afterwards, they did an assessment, told me what the problem was, and got back with American Home Shield. They were professional. I would recommend American Home Shield. It's a good service to have because you never know when you're going to have an urgency. It covers a lot more than what you want to pay out-of-pocket.

I like American Home Shield very much. I haven't needed them that often, but when I did, they're right there. They always fix my issue. They're on time. It gives me peace of mind knowing that if something is broken, they'll figure out who can fix it and they send them.

I put in a ticket when the AC wasn't working and then the contractor came out and said the issue was the evaporative dryer in the AC. They replaced that, and then put new Freon in. So I gave them a $1,500 check, but then the AC wasn’t cooling like it should have been. It wouldn’t go below 75. They said I could call them again if anything was going on, so I called them the next day. They were super busy, so they put in a ticket, and they finally got out to me yesterday. The guy came and said that it was their fault. He said they may have to change out a part because they put new Freon in an old Freon system. When he left my house yesterday, it was already 6:00 so they were closed. So he said, “I’m gonna have to put the ticket in. I have to get the part, and then come back. And then if that doesn’t work, then we’re gonna have to change out this whole unit.” But overall, I'm happy with American Home Shield's service.

The air conditioner wasn't cooling and I put in a request online to American Home Shield. I’ve used the website before and it seems to work. The contractor was very good. Originally, the timeslot was all-day so I called them to follow up and they were very helpful and polite. They got back with me on a shorter time window and called ahead. So, they did a good job. The tech showed me what was wrong. He had to replace a part and did it quickly and professionally. Considering it was the end of August in Georgia, the repair made the home livable. AHS is a good service and I'd recommend it.

Our air conditioner wasn’t working. It needed to be serviced. When I submitted the claim with AHS, it went well. They got somebody out in a decent time. The person who came out did an excellent job. I was happy with that. However, when we call AHS, we hope we don't have to wait more than 24 hours to 48 hours for service to be provided. Then we also hope for them to cover more to make sure that when something is out, it's covered. Because we've had that issue, where we had the sump pump went out, and then when we had someone come, they said they didn't cover that.

The oven wasn't coming on and when I submitted the claim to American Home Shield, it was easy dealing with the young lady. There wasn't any problem. All City Appliance fixed the issue we had and when they left, everything was working. I've had AHS for so long. If I wasn't happy, I would definitely search for a different company.

The claims process was smooth. The contact with the repair service was good. They were very responsive. The technician was early, and he identified the problem immediately and replaced the part. He was out of here with absolutely no fuss. We were very happy with the procedure. Since it was our first claim, we had no idea what to expect. But the fact that we made our payment upfront and there was no additional charge was a pleasant surprise.

Something got hooked inside the dryer's lint area and it rocked the motor mount loose. So, we had to order a piece in it. It took the tech not even a week, and he called, came back, and fixed it. He was very knowledgeable and gave me some other tips as well. He had so many customers calling him and he still was nice to them while he was still doing his work. American Home Shield has been wonderful and have helped me out a lot this year. One time I was gonna cancel, but I've learned that in the long run, it helps me out. It has been wonderful, and I don't have the added stress. I'm glad I got it and I'm thinking about getting the car thing now.

Someone came out, oiled my sump pump, and said it would be all right. He said, "If it goes out, just say you need a recall." He should have known that it was not good. Within the week, I had to call again because the sump pump was not all right. The switch was bad on it. A guy came out a second time and he had to go to the store to get a new sump pump. That took about an hour and a half. The first guy should have done that. On the whole, American Home Shield is fine. I passed an email on to one of my friends to use them.

Our AC completely shut down and wasn't blowing any air. Techs determined the fan motor wasn't running so they ordered the part.

I've had multiple claims with American Home Shield over the years. Last week, Watertight came out and the guy didn't wanna do the work. He did a bad install and didn't wanna come back out and fix it. Other than that, I haven't had a bad experience with AHS. It's just this one contractor, and AHS was able to get another pool company out for a second opinion. The guy that came out the second time said the first guy didn't do what he was supposed to do. I'm still waiting on the claim though. Nobody's done a repair yet.

So far, AHS has been satisfactory. I like that, number one, that they cover a number of different systems, number two, the ease in obtaining a service tech. You call. They have someone identified within 24 hours. They also let you know right away. As with their technicians, everyone has been courteous and competent. For our recent claim, the AC was making a very strange noise. As it turned out, it wasn't the air conditioner. The technician found that it was a fan that service both the air conditioner and the heater that was located in the garage. So, they fixed that. It worked out very well.

I went to American Home Shield and said there was an issue with the outlet. There was no power. We were remote working so I filed the claim online. But generally, I do all that online. I just click on submit a claim. I then look for the appliance, electrical, plumbing, click it then send it through. Then AHS acknowledges it. They then say, “Somebody will be assigned to you.” AHS gives me the contractor's name, address, and phone number. If they don't call me the next business day, I call them. But this last time they called me right away.
They ran the diagnostics before they determined what the issue may or may not be. I have two breaker boxes. They looked at the one and they tested that. Then they looked at the other one and tested that too. They explained it all and did their thing. There was this handy dandy little thing where I could track where they are. And I could watch them. When it was hot, I just put cold bottled water for them. Because they run around like crazy people.
My neighbor kept saying I had a leak. I said he needed to call his people. I called the leak detection people but I couldn’t find anything. And the guy that came out with the leak detection service that I paid for checked and said, “This is the neighbor’s.” I told my neighbor that he needed to have a home service. He asked who I work with and I said, “Here's the thing. I don't know what I paid, like $40, $50 a month, but you're just out $12,000.” If you never use it, it's insurance. If you ever have anything horrific, and that was a fluke leak. I told my neighbor he has to be preventative. He's retired and on a limited income. I told him if I had to pay for the insurance, over the years, it will pay for itself.

It was super-slow trying to get anybody out here. I didn't hear back from them for a week. Every time I called in, American Home Shield said they were trying to look for somebody in my area and they were going to call back either that day or the next day. I never heard back from anybody. I had to reinitiate all the calls. That was frustrating, waiting on hold for a long time. It wasted probably an hour out of my day. But so far, American Home Shield has covered everything that's gone wrong. Other than the slowness of the customer service, the technicians that came out were great. When we didn't have power to the washing machine circuit, the contractor found there were some loose revert connections in the crawl space that they took care of.

I would recommend AHS. I’ve had American Home Shield on previous houses that I owned, and they had done very well. Replaced a very expensive oven in my last home. So, when we bought this home, we decided to continue with service on our new home. Recently, I had three toilets that were leaking water. I had a bathtub fitting that was corroded and would not drain. I called AHS and it was easy. They were very professional. They took my claim and processed it. I got some text messages from the contractor saying that it was scheduled. Then, they called me to verify the time. They called again before they came over. They did a great job. They went above and beyond. They found some more issues that I wasn't aware of, like my toilet shutoff valves were leaking and I had to replace those.

In my first claim, my dishwasher had stopped draining. The technician who came out fixed it, so that was good. I recommend American Home Shield to all my friends that have houses because the first thing that goes wrong is pretty much paid for itself, especially if it's any major thing like a furnace. Before I got the Home Shield, I spent $5,000 having my furnace fixed. The dishwasher is not the most expensive thing, but I feel much better knowing I have it.

I’ve had several things done through American Home Shield, and I've never had any complaints with them at all or the technicians that came out. They've all been very good. Everything I've had done was nothing major, so it ended up saving me money ‘cause I just paid the service fee. That's all you're paying unless it's something that's not covered under the warranty, if there are parts that aren't covered under it.
With my garbage disposal, I didn't have all the tools to change it myself. I had a friend that was a commercial plumber that if he had been alive, I'd end up getting his stuff and doing it, but for $100, I could get it changed. That way, I didn't have to worry about getting all the tools to take it out and put it in. The plumber called me the next day after I got the notification, and then it was the day after that he came. He’s a very good plumber and I would recommend him.

My upstairs air conditioner was not cooling on a Friday. I called American Home Shield and by the next Friday, it was blowing snowballs. The contractor that they sent out was professional and competent. They figured it out, took care of the problem, and went on their way. I was very satisfied. On the other hand, my previous service was over my dishwasher and it was the most horrible experience I've ever had with American Home Shield. Every time, the contractor said he would come out, and he would not. "I'll be out on Tuesday, between 10:00 and 2:00," but I never heard a word from the guy. Nothing, and then I called American Home Shield. This went on for months.
The contractor also lied and said, "We tried to fix his dishwasher, but he wants a new dishwasher." That was a bald-faced lie. All I wanted was for the unit to work one way or the other. It made no difference to me. If they put a part in it, I'm happy. If they're going to replace it, okay. This is what I'm paying for. Once we changed the service people, then the new company came out, and I eventually had to get a new dishwasher once that was determined. I'm very satisfied with who the home warranty company used and with the installation. However, there was a time I was going to cancel them. Flat out was just, "I'm done with this."
I felt like American Home Shield and their customer service department were lying to me. Were they lying? I don't know, but they gave me the runaround, and I felt like they were blowing me off. They would say, "Well, okay, I'll take this to my team. I'll take this to my supervisor and we'll get back to you," and they never would get back to me. One more thing is the customer service for American Home Shield. The people there are a third party sourced outside of the country with extreme accents that are very difficult to understand.
All in all, my rating is a combination of the horrible experience I had with my dishwasher and the completely awesome experience I had with the air conditioner. It was from one extreme to the other. I was on the verge of canceling, but I am going to continue my account and my service with American Home Shield. It suits me. I'm too old to work on my stuff and I've forgotten most everything that I ever knew about anything.

I did a claim with the washer and the stove and was told to get ahold of the contractor. I called them and left a message. At first, it was kind of rocky because they weren't answering and I needed my washer as soon as possible. I called back to American Home Shield and they tried to get me somebody else but couldn't so we stayed with the same company. A lady called right away and made me my appointment. A technician came and everything went smooth. He looked at both appliances and said he had to order some parts then left. He would get back to me when the parts were already here.
Soon after that, I got antsy. I started calling American Home Shield to see what was the update because I did not know how this whole process worked. They gave me the information that they couldn't find parts for my stove so it needed to be replaced. The technician came back with parts for my washer, installed them, but the washer continued to do the same issue. He said he had to go and order more parts. I got off the phone with his wife to let her know that the washing machine was still doing the same issue.

If anything is broken, it's easy to contact American Home Shield to get someone to help. We usually request Epic Air Heating and Cooling because they always do a great job. We've had other contractors in the past who aren't timely and they're inefficient. Epic Air is always timely which is very important and they get the job done. So that's key. Professional.
However, if you call AHS at 7 o'clock in the morning when they open, you get a message that says, "Due to high call volume." Like it's gonna be like so many minutes. And that is a little bit concerning for me because I know it's not high call volume. It's always high call volume. One of the things that American Home Shield can do is to allow you to keep your name in the queue for you to call back. I remember I was on hold for about over an hour before and then I got disconnected, and then nobody calls me back which is very frustrating. But other than that, AHS is fine.

Requesting for service from American Home Shield was good because the first one was gonna take too long and they resubmitted another one. I immediately got somebody the next day. Indoor Quality Services did great. They were efficient in coming out in a timely manner and their work was fast. They were very respectful and the tech explained to me the issue with the AC.

There was a pipe in the attic for hot water that was leaking. I called AHS and talked to a representative. The process was pretty good. But I had a hard time understanding the representative because of his accent. I apologized to him and told him that I can’t understand him. He was very nice. I felt bad because he was trying very hard. He had to spell a couple of things. But I was very satisfied with how AHS handled everything. The contractor was great. Chris was the plumber that came out, and he was very knowledgeable and professional. If I had to call a plumber without American Home Shield, I would probably call them.
American Home Shield had better coverage and the copay was more than what I was paying my previous home warranty company, but I’m so okay with that. I’ve had to put out a claim with American Home Shield, and they were right on the spot every time. They replaced the air conditioner for me because it was old and it could not be fixed. So I’ve been extremely happy with them. It gives me peace of mind to have somebody that I can call and know that the problem is going to be taken care of. Also, if for any reason, if I wasn’t satisfied, they would send somebody else out to rectify the situation.
Taking care of our members is the main goal here at AHS. I am glad that you were happy with the work done.

I had two contractors come. Marathon came for the plumbing issue and then AHS had HRS come and they fixed it. However, I'm gonna have to call AHS back because the tech told me that the noise would stop and that it was air going down through my air conditioner through my pipes. It's been a week and the noise is still going on. I hate for the tech to come back out but the noise hasn't stopped yet.
Also previously, if I had an issue, it would be a bigger company coming out. Now AHS has more mom-and-pop people coming. One time, I had an issue and the contractor accepted it but they never showed up. They told me I had to be here all day. American Home Shield told me, “We're going to give them another shot.” And they didn't show up the second time. I called AHS and said, “Now listen, I've got this issue and you keep telling me that I have to go with these people. I'm not doing that because they're not showing up.” It's very frustrating. Other than that, I like American Home Shield. I liked that though I thought my problem was a plumbing issue and it wasn't, they allowed me to change my claim to one for an AC issue and didn't charge me another $100. I recommend AHS but they need to go back and use more professional contractors.

The claim was addressed well. The trouble was the door was splitting down the middle and it couldn't be saved. When the repairman came out, he was very nice. He told us what he was gonna do. He was here the next day and did it. However, I've had difficulty because when you call American Home Shield, it’s just a machine. When you talk to it, it only does what's programmed into it. I told them my garage door was broken and they kept saying garage door opener so a person was sent here to do the opener. I had another problem when I said a cooler, which is a swamp cooler, and they sent an air conditioning-heating person out. I have a bathtub and the jet stopped working. To date, it hasn't been repaired. American Home Shield did send somebody but he didn't do that kind of work.
My refrigerator went out and they were going to order the part. I got an email saying the part was ordered. Then yesterday, I got an email saying it couldn't be repaired, and I could get it at Lowe's. However, they showed me a picture of a refrigerator like the one I have or similar. Then it says underneath it, it's not available in my zip code. Then they showed me these little refrigerators that you keep in your office. I don't need those kinds. Why wouldn’t they show me different kinds of large refrigerators? Why would they send me one that says not available in my zip code? I would like to see an option where you can talk to a person when you call in rather than the machine that is not programmed for the questions you have or what you want done.

I've been very happy with my decision to go with AHS based on some of the repairs that have been made. For my recent claim for the AC, the Airmax repairman saw what it was, and within an hour and a half, my AC was running, and he was on his way. One of the things I was caught by surprise was my unit was 10 years old, and in order for American Home Shield to continue to warranty it after repairs, it had to be brought up to code. So, that resulted in an additional $1,400 out of pocket above what my deductible was. It was all in the fine print, but that was a little bit of sticker shock. But I understood why they did that and why they do that.

I used to feel really good about American Home Shield’s service. I can't say the same anymore. When we first started, the monthly amount that we paid was reasonable. We liked that. When we had any issues, they took really good care of us. But recently, we had an issue with our dishwasher and that was where our relationship went down the drain. Our dishwasher stopped working. They sent somebody out to fix it. We paid $125. The person came out, and he did something. He said, “Okay. It’s working now" and he left. We loaded up the dishwasher again and ran it, and it still wasn’t working. So, we called them back. They got in touch with the same guy. The guy called them back. He was like, “Oh, well, if it's not working, then I can't do anything. I'm going out of town for my daughter's wedding. Have them rerouted to somebody else.”
So, we have been rerouted to Sears. They sent one person out who looked at it. He ordered the part and was like, “Well, more than likely, it's not going to be fixed because that part may not be available.” They called us back saying, “Oh, the part is available.” Then nothing happened for 10 days. We have four kids, two little ones that drink from bottles so we need a dishwasher, and we're dealing with it. We keep telling them, “Hey, we need someone to work on this.” 10 days went by. Nobody called us. We finally got someone to call us and say, “They called. We're so sorry, but the part just arrived. And we're scheduling you for someone to come out.” They scheduled for someone to come out.
The person that came out did not know what he was doing. He installed the part and it was still not working. He was on the phone with someone else. He was like, “There is nothing more we can do. We need to replace this. This unit is not fixable. We need to replace it.” So, now, we waited a week. There was nothing from American Home Shield. They were like, “Oh, we’re still reviewing our files. We're reviewing our files. We'll get back to you.” Finally, somebody got back to me saying, “Okay. Yes. We reviewed our files. We sent it up for approval. But yeah, you guys can go ahead and find a replacement. And we'll reimburse you up to approved amount.” We were like, “Okay. Fine.”
We need a dishwasher, so we went out and purchased one. We're waiting for American Home Shield and there was nothing. The dishwasher that we purchased, it even took them three weeks to install it, and there was nothing from American Home Shield in those three weeks. The day that the dishwasher got installed and they hauled away our old dishwasher, American Home Shield then called and was like, “We figured out what the problem is. We don't need to replace it. We can fix it. Can you please have these guys come out?” I was like, “But there is no more old dishwasher. Someone told us that we can go ahead and replace it. And we replaced it.”
Now, the dishwasher is gone. I am not getting reimbursed for it, and they told me that it's my fault. Also, they increased my monthly. So, when I first bought the house, I was paying $70 a month. Now, they're charging me $100 a month. Now, I'm paying $1,200 a year, and I did not get my situation resolved from them. So, I am not a happy camper about American Home Shield.

The techs replaced the icemaker unit but they're out of stock of the valve that has something to do with the water and it’s pending. A rep called me the day before yesterday and let me know that it was on order and they were going to take care of it as soon as they got the part. I'm very happy with them and they're very good people.
But the claims process with AHS was very difficult. We had a water heater that went out and they kept putting us off. There was a whole bunch of malarkey with their reps. We got something of a deluxe contract, a little bit better than normal, and we knew we were right about our coverage but we couldn't get an answer from those people. It was really starting to upset the hell out of me, but I got over it. After nine days with no water heater, we got service on it. The experience was very unpleasant, but they got it straightened out. The techs came and we had to pay a little extra, then they put a water heater in. So I'm happy with it now.

For my AHS claim, the AC wasn't getting cold. I have a Nest Thermostat. When I was on vacation, I got a little thing that said that it was trying to cool off the house, but it wasn't. It gave me an error message. So when I got home, the whole upstairs was really high. When the techs came out, they said, “It was on and it might have shut off.” The tech said it was nothing wrong with it, like it was air coming out, but sometimes when parts start going out, it might stop and then it'll reset itself.
He said it was still working. When you put your hand up there, cold air was coming out. But eventually, it got hot again. On his end, he was like, “Everything seems cool.” So I don't know if it’s my filters, like when the company comes and cleans out your ducts, maybe that’s why it's not blowing hard. Because they never solved that problem. It'll get cold, but then I got the same error message. They said my system's working. They did what they had to do regardless of me getting that error message that said it was 90 degrees upstairs. It eventually got back cold. They went and checked everything. They were fine. The tech was very knowledgeable and he was not leaving until I was like, “No, you're gonna show me exactly that this is on.” Then I liked the fact that he said, “If anything happens. You can always call us back.”

We had a leaking faucet and the contracted company provided great service. But the service before that was horrible. The claim had to do with my sewer septic line. It was backed up and I needed to see what was going on with that. I called the contractor and they didn't contact me. I never got a call back within the timeframe that I was told. It was a few days and by that time I called someone else, had them come out, and do the service. I also had this one heating AC person years ago at another property that I didn't care for.
I have used American Home Shield over the years. The service I got was good for the most part and I have told several people about them. There is only one thing that bothers me at this point. I had two properties and I got a discount. I don't have one of the properties anymore. The price for the home warranty has gone up and no matter how often you use it, it keeps going up a lot. It would be better for a customer of many years to have better rates or incentives. So, I've looked at other home warranty companies in the past and I tried to re-evaluate what other companies have to offer. I still have American Home Shield's service and I appreciate the contractors who come out on time, respond in a timely manner, and take care of my issue. But I don't like the rising monthly premiums.

The girl who helped me was like, Okay, well, since we're not able to get ahold of them, we're gonna give it a couple of hours and see if they call us back, or if they call you back, or if we can get ahold of them. And if not, then we'll move it to a different company.” So they move it to a different company and I heard from that guy the same day. He told me they wouldn't be able to make it out until a Thursday and at that point, it was a Tuesday. But then he ended up calling me a little later that day and was like, “Hey, I had a cancellation. I could come out to your house today, if that's all right.”
It was an electronic issue but the guy who came talked us through it a little bit just to explain why it wasn't working right which I greatly appreciated. He told me to let him know if we had any issues with the AC after we got the electric fixed, and he would come back out if he needed to. And then we were able to get that issue fixed on our own because my dad does some electronic work for his actual job. So he was able to help me out with that.

The first company that was given by AHS for our claim rated really low. We had started on a Monday. It had gone out over the weekend. It was a little bit interesting in that we had to wait after they had given us the first name. I questioned about that one. It was after 48 hours, then I could request a different one or a different one would be appointed. We were away from our home for a couple of days and got a notification and the name had been given to us. Buckhannon's HVAC was the second company. So, I had called them and set it up.
We talked to them on a Friday and they were able to come out on a Monday. Very nice. It was the blower motor fan and they had to order it directly from the factory, so they told us that it would be two to three weeks. It got here in about a couple of weeks and they came out and put it in. I would use Buckhannon's again whether I had a warranty or not. I was very happy with them. They tried to get to us as soon as they could. They were honest in telling me that they had other customers that had been waiting and the parts just weren't available yet for them.

AHS had always come through for me when I need it. Both of my refrigerators had issues. One of them had a leak, and a gentleman came out and fixed it. Then the other one, the ice maker was broken.

Then with my appliances, I get the same gentleman. It's good when you see the same person over and over again instead of seeing different people. I really do enjoy working with them.
The beneficial part about having AHS is you pay monthly, and if anything happens, you only pay $100 deductible. If it's fixable, they'll fix it. If it's not, they'll put in a request for you to get either the same product or something different. I also like their submission process. I like to speak to an agent when I do my request for services. I really don't trust the computer too much.

We had a leak under the sink that was leaking into behind our dishwasher and into all the wood and presumably down through the wall and into the basement. The All Drains guys were absolutely awesome. We had gotten a quote previously from another local plumber when we first discovered the issue and it was astronomical. But the guy that I spoke to at All Drains was pretty upfront about that, and how much it really should have cost, even if they were going to do the work that the other plumbers said that they needed to do, which he said was very unnecessary. The price that they quoted me was more than double what he would have charged me for it. All Drains fixed it within an hour and a half. They were quick.
Everything went as well as we would have expected. The only thing my wife had to say was the first contractor that was assigned to the job is a well-known bad business around here. They have a lot of bad reviews, and they're not looked at very well by the Better Business Bureau either. So she jumped on that pretty quickly to get that change.

I'm mediumly satisfied with AHS. Their phone technicians answer 24/7 and they really listen. I had to have a hole cut in my ceiling due to a leak and the tech came to repair the drywall. I had a replacement light and they gave me the most basic model. The cover that goes over the light cracked before they even could get it on. Then, I had to wait another two weeks to get it. We also get to give feedback on the techs after each time they come out, so I know that AHS is weeding through them. So far, there's only been one that I haven't liked. It's just that the constraints of the warranty had prevented me from getting the highest quality replacement. I would have loved to have known that I wouldn't have been replaced with a similar item upfront or that the ceiling repair wouldn't have included paint.

We opened the ticket, then we waited for someone to show up and call us from a contractor, but nobody called. We had to call the insurance, then they called the contractor who told them that they would call us. Finally, I received a call from the contractor to schedule. He came, then we said, "This issue happened before multiple times, so hope it gets fixed this time or you will be able to resolve it, and it won't happen again." He went back and reported that we didn't want the machine to be fixed.
I called back. The insurance said that "The claim has been closed because you don't want the machine to be fixed. You want money for the repair." I said, "I never said we want money for the repair. We want the machine to be fixed. We just told the guy that we hope this thing does not come back after fixing. We have fixed so many times before to insurance and hope this doesn't happen again." They said, "Oh, sorry for misunderstanding. We'll reopen the ticket." They opened a ticket with another contractor, who then we had to follow up. We had to make at least three calls and finally, the guy came and said they had to order a part. They ordered it, and then it sat with us. Nobody called us and we called again, said we have a part, they said, "Okay, we'll schedule something." They did, but the guy never showed up.
We called back and they said the guy was sick so they would reschedule. So, my last ticket I had for the hood took six months to resolve. It's not an easy process with this insurance company. Lack of proactiveness there. Just opening a ticket and then sitting on it does not help the customer until the issue is resolved. That's where the management comes in.
Some of the contractors say, "Give me a week, and we'll order a part. We know what the issue is" via their experience. Some, they come, look at the model then say they cannot fix it and have to order a part. That also required a follow-up. They said we need a part, so after a week or two I had to call the insurance to find out what was the status, what had the contractor or insurance bought. Then, they would say, "Oh, the part was ordered, you have to wait." and then it took one week for the part to arrive. We had to call the contractor back to tell them that we have received the part.
Express was a bit better because they at least had the text update. You could text the technician and talk to them. But some of the previous contractors we had were horrible. The one who worked on the hood, we had to chase a lot. American Home Shield is needed, but the quality is not there. If they open a ticket, follow-up to make sure the contractor has reached and went to the customer or not. Stay on top of it. If you see that contractor has not reached out, there should be some follow-up to know that the customer is getting taken care of or not, instead of the customer calling, trying to find out the scheduling and appointments.
Also, I told the lady my cost went up on the insurance policy. They said the cost has increased from last year. I said, "So, okay, so the cost has increased but some of the service has not improved." I'm not seeing good service, so it doesn't justify. She said, "Yeah, the cost has increased. What can we do?" I never received any call for any kind of paperwork in the mail. My American Express charges went from $70 to $80 a month. And I said, "Why? What happened?" They told me that the cost has increased from July. I said, "Nobody told me about that."

Sears came out last week and fixed a part but it didn't fix the issue. A guy came back out today and he's someone we've seen before. He's super nice. He said that the part wasn't the problem and he fixed the problem. This last time was pretty good. We didn't need to use American Home Shield the first couple years we had it, but recently, we've had to use it more for the first time. The first couple times I've had to call, I had a really hard time with understanding what the people were saying. They didn't speak very clear English, and I feel bad saying that to them, so I kept acting like it was my phone and I didn't have a good connection. They got rude and annoyed with me because I couldn't understand. That'd be the only thing that is a little frustrating.

American Home Shield's website seems to work pretty good. I was pleasantly surprised. When I submitted the request for service, they came back with who was coming out, and that they’d be contacting me. The tech was prompt and responsive. He came in a couple of times and answered calls, so it was a good experience. I would recommend AHS. It's a good investment. It's a good guard against something going wrong.

The tech from BA Distributing LLC came out for my dishwasher door that wasn't closing and my icemaker that wasn't making any ice. He replaced my icemaker and he repaired the door on my dishwasher. It went really well. The repair guy complimented me on giving the serial numbers and the model number of the appliances because it helped him when he got here to make sure that he had replacement parts on the claims that I was inquiring about. The benefit of having AHS is good. The only thing that’s a disadvantage to me is the copay. I had to pay $100 or so upfront prior to the repair guy coming out and with me paying monthly for the insurance, I assumed that it should have been covered. But other than that, I'm satisfied with it.

Would have given 0 stars if it would have let me. Our air conditioner broke and we paid the $100 for AHS to send a contractor. The contractor came and said we needed a new compressor. It took over 2 weeks for AHS to approve and order the part. When the contractor went to pick up the part AHS hadn't paid for it so they couldn't pick it up. We went back and forth with AHS for 2 more weeks and nobody would return our calls. Finally, after 4 weeks without air, we paid out of pocket for a new unit. When we called to cancel our contract with AHS they wouldn't refund us our $100 or any of our premiums and the woman refused to let me speak with anyone higher up, she said that nobody else would be able to help me.

The refrigerator went out and we had four different technicians that came out. The first one said it was the fan and he didn't specialize for that in LGs so American Home Shield asked for someone else. The next day, we had another one that stated it was the compressor. He didn't have one on them, and he would consider it as a loss because it's an expensive part. Then, someone else came out and confirmed that it was the compressor.
We also had another guy come out and confirmed it was a compressor. It just so happen that he specializes in LG. His company had a compressor on hand with them so he said he was gonna submit the order American Home Shield and if they approve it, then he'd come the next day and install it. He spoke with someone saying that the compressor was really expensive. They were gonna just pay it out. But he said that they don't have the cheap one and so the AHS rep said if he could fix it, then just go ahead. The next day, the compressor was installed in less than half an hour. It's been working great since.
American Home Shield was on task. Every single day someone from them or from the repair guys would be calling to check if anyone else came out for a second opinion or third opinion. We've been speaking to our neighbors that they should get this warranty because this really helps us no matter what.

I was having a problem with my back-up pump. It was beeping so I called American Home Shield. I specifically asked not to send Aaron because I've had problems with them in the past. But Aaron came out and it was an older gentleman. He came downstairs, looked at the unit and said he couldn't tell what was the matter with it because it was missing some pieces. I told him there were no pieces missing. It has been there since I moved in and nothing has happened to it. He said he was going to write it up that it was missing some pieces and that he'd give me a call back.
From that day to this day, I have not heard anything from Aaron and I've called them twice. I called American Home Shield back and told them Aaron came out but did not do anything. Aaron reported it that I was missing pieces but I was not missing anything. I Googled the unit that I had and it said it was obsolete. What the technician was looking for was what they have on the more modern things but he never took the time to do that.
American Home Shield sent Patel's Plumbing & Sewer. Patel's was spectacular. They were very responsive. When it was time for my appointment, they called to confirm it. I was very pleased with them.

We have one of those touchscreen thermostats which would not come on, and the air was not running at all. Our pan was full of water. When the repair people came out, they explained that the thermostat automatically kicks off because they have a sensor in the pan. So, as soon as there's water in it, it automatically kicks off the thermostat and turns the system off. I think the line was clogged up, too, because it's in a room that we don't use very often. Once they cleared the line, everything was up and running. It was a pretty easy fix, so that was good.
The repair people were great. There were two of them and they were so nice and helpful. They gave me some tips on how to keep the line from clogging up again in the future, which was great. We've used AHS a lot for little things. We've had some drippy faucets and some AC issues.

When we purchased the house, we knew there was a water issue. It was called a leveling issue. Sunline came out and they decided they had to get a new part for the dishwasher. Once the tech put in the new part, he had to take off the side of the dishwasher. But during the third visit, it was still leaking and there was still a real problem. So he put in a request to have the dishwasher replaced. It was hard to get in touch with the tech. It took us about a couple of phone calls before we got in touch with him. But when he came out a couple of times, he was very responsive and he did a great job, even though we couldn't get the dishwasher fixed.
We're not using American Home Shield's replacement system because it doesn't have anything that's suitable for our needs. I had to call them to get the claim re-evaluated because we have a custom front-panel dishwasher and they only put in for a regular dishwasher. But once I talked to the person at American Home Shield, they resolved it and they gave us a bit more money. But they still didn't put in any recommended replacements that they could do that would satisfy the requirements that we have. So I'm having to buy one myself, and I'm doing payment in lieu of them doing it. I'll get the dishwasher purchased and installed, get the warranty, and then send the paperwork in so I can be reimbursed. It's more work.
I called American Home Shield to ask them what was covered under the policy. I asked if our fans were covered and the rep said, “No.” She also said, “Well, now that you've mentioned that it, even if you bought the upgraded package, you can't have your fans covered.” I don't even know what the hell that means. But in any event, I ended up upgrading the package because I wanted to make sure that if anything happens to my house in the first year, I want to see if I can have it covered. Other than that, I was skeptical about these kinds of home warranties. But so far, or at least for this first situation, American Home Shield came through.

He eventually concluded that he wasn't sure exactly what the problem was. But there were a lot of places where the wire had been put together, wire knots, which was not after the market, but he retightened some of those. After he did some of those things like that, it started working.
He told me, “In 30 days if it's still not working, let us know. Because it'd still be under the same claim number.” But right now, it's been working and it's been two weeks ago. He also said, “I'll have to order a new circuit board or circuit panel. It'll probably take about two weeks because of COVID.

They're all right but it would be nice if they came out as a contractor ready to solve the problem rather than a multi-call situation where they don't call the expert until after somebody has made an assessment.

I recommend AHS to everybody. Our experience hasn't always been great, but it usually has. My wife and I had to get a house for our daughter. She had gone through a divorce and it was COVID time. So, there could be no home inspections when we bought the house. We put American Home Shield on it for two years. Within a couple of weeks of her moving in, she had to have an electrical panel completely replaced. Then, she also had to have a water heater replaced. It went as smooth as could be both times with American Home Shield. So, that was really good. She had been going through a lot of difficulties with the divorce, so it was nice that that worked so smoothly.
On July 18th, we had a water heater break in my house and it's been a disaster as far as the house goes. But American Home Shield came right through. They had a person come out and checked it over. It qualified for a replacement. So all that went through smoothly there. Just the rest of it hasn't gone through smoothly. My wife and I are still in a hotel and probably will be until January. They have to rip out a bunch of floors.
However, three years ago, I had a guy come out to check my furnace. He said, “We're going to be needing to replace this at some point, probably. I gotta change all these bleeder valves.” He said he was gonna order new ones. He checked. I was qualified and I paid my $75 deductible. But I never saw him after that. He called me one time, a few weeks later and said, “I got your parts.” He called me at 8:15 and said, “I'll be there at your house in about 10 minutes.” I said, “No, my wife's at school, teaching and I'm just going out the door to head to an appointment out of town.” He said, “Just leave your house unlocked.” I said, “No, that's not gonna be the case. Just call me to reschedule.” Never heard from him again. So, in that case there, I paid for service and never got it.
But I was surprised that at that point, American Home Shield never followed up with me to see how it went. I let them know a couple of times that person never came back, but never heard anything, still. But they came through for me this time.

When I first submitted my claim for my dryer with AHS, it took about two weeks for the first tech to come. Then, it took about a week before they came back with a part, but that didn't fix it.

I explained my problem and they just seemed rather disinterested. A couple of the people were very hard to communicate with as well.
Also, my understanding was after six weeks of all of this going on that, I thought that they would replace the dryer after I had waited so long and had two different repair people here for the first company. Then, they put three parts in and none of them worked. None of them made the dryer work. So, I felt like their policy of replacing something that couldn't be fixed should have been honored at that point. It was repaired after all that time and it is working right now.

American Home Shield's online portal is really easy to use. I was able to go in there and report some issues around my house pretty easily. I liked that they lump everything together so you only have to pay your service fee one time per category. Then I was contacted by the service center that they assigned to my issues very quickly. The guy who came out was really good at what he did. He came in and pulled appliances apart in a way that I didn't even know you could do that. I thought he was gonna get electrocuted the whole time. Also, he was the sweetest kind of guy. He was very quiet and did his thing. He came out a few times. He worked really hard trying to solve my issues.
He couldn't figure out the issues so he ended up telling American Home Shield that I needed new appliances. I thought they were going to try to give me a $500 Walmart appliance that was going to break after three uses. But they actually gave me a really comfortable amount to spend on replacements. It was very fair. The ordering process for new appliances was great. When I called customer service and talked to them a few times about my options and how to get the stuff ordered, it was pretty much the nicest customer service. With most companies, customer service goes to another country, and sometimes, it's difficult to understand each other. But American Home Shield sends us somewhere in the Midwest, and it's the nicest customer service people I've ever dealt with. I live in a pretty remote area and American Home Shield was the only choice here. But I’m very happy with them. They're doing a great job.

SeaBreez did great with my most recent claim. They did what they needed to do and fixed the part and that seemed to fix the issue. But I hate American Home Shield with passion. I feel like they exploit their client. They have so much fine print and red tape that they don't tell you about and they act like they're on your side but they hardly cover anything. They're extremely limited on what they help with. I would rather use anyone but them in the future.

I put in an order for my air conditioner and they sent me a contractor who gave me a quote of 3800 that I have to pay out of pocket. They said that the compressor went out so I called another company to come out and see if that was what they were saying it was, and it was not. My compressor was fine. The AC was leaking oil so it was not even the compressor. It was something else that was not going to cost that much so I never talked to them again.
American Home Shield haven't called me back. I tried getting ahold of them and there was no answer. I wish they would communicate and let me know what's going on. The machine says to call the person that came down to do my air conditioner but they lied to me and I don't even know if I want to do business with them anymore. I wanted to tell somebody that these people are frauds and they're making up stuff. These young kids didn't know what they were doing. With this last order that I put in, I'm not happy with it at all. AHS should cover some of this cost and not dump it on me. But I never had problems with any other claims. Lake Plumbing was great. The guy did a good job.

Our showerhead was leaking intermittently. American Home Shield sent out the plumber just to see if he could address that. The contractor called me at 4:45 on Friday, and I tried to call them back immediately. I left a message but they never followed up. I had to chase it down. Other than that, the plumber fixed it quickly and we haven't had any issues since. American Home Shield has been good.

I called them over 8 times and the agents are all reading from the same script just to lead you on. If you call all the different phone numbers on the internet listed for them it is all directed to 1 phone. Those reviews are not real. I just filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.

In the last two weeks, I had a small claim that was dealt with very quickly. I had an issue with my air conditioning. I told the young lady at American Home Shield that I'm 76 years old and diabetic and she had somebody assigned for the next morning. That is not typically the way it works but they are being responsive if the customers tell them that there is a medical issue or an age issue, particularly with HVAC. I was really proud of everybody on that last claim.
I've been a customer for a very long time and prices continue to increase. I had a claim with a stovetop a year or so ago and American Home Shield said it was customer neglect. It was very obvious that the appliance kind of died from the inside out, not from being hit. So I demanded to have a second opinion and the tech said it needed to be replaced. It should have been replaced the first time I called and was declined. The next time, I got a little more aggressive. So they resolved that issue. But the biggest thing is that the amount of money that they are collecting is pretty intense for today's market.
If you think about AHS as a savings account, you're more prone to be a little happier with the service. Because you're really paying them for an insurance policy when something goes wrong and it's all built upon the actuarial charts to the company's advantage. Because they get to use your money most of the time for a very long time. If you do the same thing at a bank in a savings account that you're not touching, you could probably come out better. But that still doesn't give you instant access to a variety of vendors that do the actual service.

Our initial issue had to do with the icemaker and water machine within the refrigerator. 1st Choice came out and the icemaker was fixed, but then the water didn't work. I called them back out, and they were prompt with that. They came out to fix the water. Then it started leaking, so then I called them out again. They fixed the leak. Then they just had to come out again. The water had stopped working again. When the tech came out, he said that the reason the water wasn't working was because somebody had changed the temperature setting on the icemaker, but the only people that are in the house are myself and my wife. It's all resolved now though. We don't have any more issues with it at this point. They seemed to be willing to come out as quickly as I made the claim. They called me pretty promptly and we set up something, and they got it taken care of.
When the guy came out here, he said it's hard for them to distinguish what is actually wrong with the refrigerator by the selections that you make when you check a box on the American Home Shield screen. I told my wife, "Well, the only box there, it says refrigerator/icemaker." You can't distinguish between the water or the icemaker or just the fridge. Maybe it would be good to have an additional selection there on the menu to single out what the actual problem is or a location where you can explain what the actual issue is and add a note to the service you’re gonna request. Other than that, generally, the subs that American Home Shield uses seem to be pretty dependable.

The AC unit was running but it wasn't cooling the house. So, I put in a call to American Home Shield for service, and JFrank came out and changed the capacitor, and it was back to functioning again. I've used the service quite a bit. We've had AHS for about a year and a half and I've had some good experiences and some difficult experiences. One of them was especially related to our plumbing. Our plumbing was stopped up and ready to flood, and we couldn't use our toilets, and we kept getting a runaround. They couldn't find a contractor to assign to us because it was a weekend, and they kept putting us off. They kept telling me, “Well, you have to wait 24 to 48 hours.” It was like, “I'm sorry, I can't wait 24 to 48 hours to use the toilet.” But that was the worst experience I had. I had to call that 800 number at least a dozen times to finally get a response and get them to allow me to go out and get my own contractor.
I called in for service yesterday on something that just happened on my dishwasher. I was quite aggravated that they were wanting to force me to do a video diagnosis. I didn't agree to that when I signed my contract or when I upped my contract. The woman on the line kept pushing, “Well, this would be faster.” It was like, “No, it's more work for me.” Diagnosis is why I pay for the American Home Shield. I don't want to stand there holding a camera and going through this process. That's what I'm paying them for. So, I'm not going to do video diagnosis. That to me is just the company trying to cut corners and save money. I want a technician to come out and do the diagnosis.
What was aggravating is in all the literature that's come out about this in the emails and stuff that I've seen, it says that this is an option. What I didn't appreciate is that it was treated like it wasn't an option, and I had to fight with her to get her to just send out a technician. I shouldn't have to fight with something that's optional.
We spent a lot of time researching warranties. We looked at about five different home warranty companies and of all of those, we've found that American Home Shield seem to have the best coverage. And so far, I have been pleased with the coverage and that there hasn't been anything that they've refused to cover. If I was talking to somebody who was going to buy it, it’s like, “Okay, find out if they’ll let you upgrade to different plans.” One of the things that I was told was that they were coming out with an upgrade plan where you could get better coverages on things. If I was a new customer, I could get that. But they wouldn't allow me as an existing customer to get that plan without a 30-day no service period.
So, I would warn folks that when they're signing up for these home warranties that unless they're doing it at the time of a purchase of a home, they're going to take the responsibility for anything that happens in the first 30 days. The warranty is not going to cover it. Personally, if I didn't get this warranty when I was buying my house and the coverage was starting on the day I moved in, I wouldn't buy it. I'm not going to pay for a coverage after I had been there for 30 days and all the problems have happened. I don't like that part of the policy. You're paying them premium, so they should be willing to cover you from the day you start paying the premium.

The difficulty I had with this claim was calling in and getting the person to dispatch the plumber. It seemed like she was trying to make it so the claim wasn't covered. It took a long time. She was not understanding me. We had difficulty understanding each other's language. It got very complicated.
As cumbersome as it may be, in places like American Home Shield, you need to read the contract. It's a legal document. If you don't know anything about certain issues within your home, which most people don't, they make you become a professional in it. Because they look for any way to disqualify you from coverage. So you have to really know how to read every bit of the contract before you decide to go with them.

Then, I would have to repeat my full name, property address, email address, and telephone number. After the second time, that got kind of annoying. But when the contractors come out for service, it's been very good. Most of our interactions with American Home Shield have been with appliances and Star Services come out for those. I showed them where the appliance is and they did the troubleshooting. Then, they told me what they thought it was and what their recommendation to American Home Shield would be.
I had an experience with American Home Shield in a different city in 2008 and it was way highly unsatisfactory. Now, they're more willing to live up to their contract. I had an appliance replaced where I utilized the American Home Shield buying power. I paid the difference to what I wanted it to be and that worked out very well. Another time, I took the cash payment and then replaced what was there with the exact same model with an additional $200 or $300 of my own money, whereas American Home Shield wouldn't match the aesthetics.

We had a leak and there was water under the AC unit. The first that the tech came, he said he had to go back and give his findings to the office, and he came back a second day and taped up the leak. He said it wasn't insulated properly and he had to wrap the coils with some silver tape. Then he had to go inside with the insulation and tape it to keep it from leaking. The previous contractor that came out for the AC should have insulated the inside and the tubes there in the ceiling that he had to re-tape. He also said he hopes it holds because if it freezes up, it may cause some condensation. So it's a wait-and-see type deal.
Last year, I had to call American Home Shield for our AC unit and another guy came out and he took a blowtorch and put it against the coils. He found a couple holes that he patched up. That helped a lot because they kept the upstairs a little cooler because it will be 79 upstairs and the AC unit is on 72. He said we needed a whole new system, and then he was giving a quote about what they could do. But we couldn't take that cost. So he did the best he could for what he was allowed to do. We were told the previous year that the problem was the coils so we had to purchase brand new coils and it cost us about $1,400 out of pocket. Everything that AHS does is really good, but when it comes to AC units, it's patch-up job.

The tech fixed the motor of my AC in one day. He was going to order a part but we lucked out. He had the part because he had ordered one for another customer that he didn't use. Everything has been pretty good with American Home Shield. I've heard horror stories, but we have had a good experience.
We appreciate you taking time to share your warranty experience. We look forward to handling your AHS needs. Have an amazing week.

We love the claims process. If we didn’t have American Home Shield, we’d spend a lot more money than what we have been spending. We had an extreme amount of gas smell that was coming from our oven. The contractor went in and pulled out our stove, and checked the line to make sure there was no hole coming from the hose itself. They told us that it was a part that needed to be replaced. On the other hand, the AC repair guys told us that we needed to purchase a whole new unit, which didn't make any sense to us. It worked fine when we purchased the home. It’s just not cooling the house properly. The claim has been closed and we're going to get a second opinion and have somebody else come out before we purchase a whole new AC unit.

My dryer stopped working and the tech came out three days after I made a claim which was pretty fast. He explained to me what could have been going on and what he was going to do to try to fix it. In the end, he couldn't fix it because a piece was needed and they don't make it anymore because the machine was old. Right now, AHS is working on the replacement. Unfortunately, they don't have any dryer available in the area that would be equal to the one that I had. But they told me that they're going to get a shipment tomorrow. I would have to pay a lot more for a brand-new appliance if I didn't have AHS and I feel like I can rely on them.

The tech had to examine the outside air conditioning unit and then put in some Freon. He was very personable and he did a good job. He resolved the issue. I was pleased and I was glad to get my AC repaired on such short notice.

Everything went great with Rogers Heating & Air. The air conditioner was only blowing hot air so they came out and checked it. They found that the evaporative coil needed to be replaced and they got that done within a few days. They did a wonderful job and they were fast. We've had American Home Shield for probably nine months now and the whole thing went very easily. The first time I reported it, the person that they connected me with never returned my calls. So, I contacted AHS again and they gave me somebody else's name. They got right back with me within the hour. I'm glad I have AHS.

A technician came out and fixed a refrigerator ice maker. He did an excellent job. He said that the full line water level was not receiving enough water. He explained it and had to increase the water. I would have liked to have been given some choices for contractors to come out though.

An electrician came to repair a ceiling fan. They double booked on the app so we had to reschedule it but it wasn’t too long. He really knew what he was doing.

The AC wouldn't react to the thermostat. Guyette Air Conditioning and Heating ended up repairing some piece of it and refueled the Freon.
