    A lot of times there’s a long wait on the phone, so I thought that I would try to file a claim online with AHS. And it went really good. it was fairly easy to do. It was late in the week on a Thursday so I was thinking it was gonna be Monday because the contractor said two business days they would contact me. But the contractor came the same day. It was wonderful. He was really nice. He called me and told me who he was, and said, “I’m actually right down the street. If you want me to come out today if you’re available…” He came and fixed the air conditioner right away in about an hour. He had all the parts he needed. Everything went really good with American Home Shield, so I’m really happy with it.

    I had an issue with the air conditioner which wasn't cooling. They sent a contractor and the experience went great. They've also repaired my dryer before but I need to call them again about it. I'm scared that someone's gonna leave the dryer on because it runs all night long. I've been getting up and the machine is so hot, I almost can't touch it.

    Another thing that I like about AHS is they follow-up and they keep us informed. They tell me what time the appointment is and they follow up to make sure that the contractors have arrived or to tell me that the contractors are coming. AHS is a great company and they do a wonderful service to help. I will continue using them.

    I’m happy with American Home Shield. I’ve realized there’s a call-out fee for the technician, but invariably, the service has saved me money over the last several years. Also, I’m comfortable with the way you have to submit your incident report. AHS sent Swift Electric for the dishwasher. It was working, but the pump that pumps the water out of the dishwasher reservoir into the drain line was not operational. It wasn’t emptying water. They had to replace the pump. And the initial call out by the service technician for Swift Electric diagnosed it and, unfortunately, he didn’t have parts. So he had to wait until the parts arrived. He came back, and when he did, he repaired it fairly quickly. He’s done service on another appliance of mine under the warranty earlier, too.

    We have two garbage disposals and one of them was leaking. It wasn’t a piping leak. It was coming out the entire body of the garbage disposal. It had rusted out or disintegrated internally. I went online and requested service with American Home Shield. The website was pretty good. I did another request for a pool. I did that one verbally and it was a little difficult. But the website seemed to work quite well. It was easy to navigate and got right to it. It asked a lot of questions than I expected to about the details. Somebody then got back to me right away.

    The contractor was good. When I called the scheduler for the actual service company, I was trying to tell them what the scenario was. I was not sure if they had enough information. I knew the unit would have to be replaced. It wasn’t gonna be something that could be repaired. The scheduler seemed less knowledgeable about what I was trying to explain. I was trying to explain what the garbage disposal was so they would have one. But she wasn’t gonna have any of that. She didn’t want me to self-diagnose my problem. But they scheduled the service and it was the next day.

    A technician showed up on time and the guy had a unit on his truck. It was not for me but for another client. But it was the same model I had. The disposal unit was pretty universal as far as where the fittings come in and out. Once the guy looked at it, he concurred that what I had described was correct, went off to his van, got the unit, and within 15 minutes, it was installed and done. He then went and replaced that unit for the next client.

    For this particular claim, my experience was excellent and I was very satisfied. There was one claim I had where I called and spoke to a representative who was a little more difficult. I don’t think they were local. There was an accent that I was having a hard time understanding. I was trying to describe technical issues pertaining to the item and they were not understanding me technically. In the end, the issue got resolved beautifully. The person was knowledgeable and all that worked really well. Going through the telephone was more difficult. But when I went through the site, it was much more seamless.

    Moving into a 'new' 4+ year old home in NW Florida can be exciting UNTIL the A/C stops working. No problem! I have AHS warranty. 23 days ago I was able to have an AC tech come out to take a look. 5 minutes.... easy diagnosis and quick repair if only the part was in hand. Part was ordered. 2 weeks go by and part was lost. Part reordered. Arrived in tech's hands so a date 6 days later, at the earliest was made.

    AC tech scheduled. Called 3 hours after waiting for him to arrive saying the 'part was defective.' He never arrived at the house but apparently with some magic he was able to determine part would not work. After several more hours on hold and waiting. New (same part) was ordered. I am "in luck"!!! Yay!! It is in stock somewhere in S. FL. Finally, re-scheduled tech when part arrived in town. Yesss.

    Nope. It is another week and a half wait before an AC tech might arrive. Call me 24 days of 90 degrees in house and waiting. Why waste the $ for AHS when I could have put the cash to good use and had my AC fixed choosing my own company. AHS 3rd party vendor/company knows this so you WILL be at the end of the line every step of the way.

    I have had a home warranty through AHS for about 2 years and have only used it 2 times for minor repairs with no issues. BUT...when my air conditioning failed on a Saturday in 100 degree heat, the problems started. I started my claim online. I received a call from a contractor who wasn't available to come to my house for 4 days. I have children and an elderly pet, so it was unsafe for us to live in this heat for that long. AHS attempted to find another contractor to come out sooner but was unable to. After some arguing, they approved me finding my own contractor. I found one to come the very same day in 1 call.

    When my contractor called the autho dept, the repair was completely denied, the person on the phone was rude and told me that "she was hot too." I was totally offended and as a medical provider concerned for my family. I asked to speak to a supervisor, was told they would call me within 24 hours, but am still waiting. I tried to call but was told that they can't transfer calls to the autho department. I was placed on hold for 30 mins, then the call disconnected. No one ever called me back. Needless to say, I have had to pay for the repair myself. I am shocked that a company would have that much disregard for human life and will be proceeding with action against this company. You can find other reviews on Yelp, Google and anywhere else I can find to write them.

    It has been 20 days since I put in an online request for repair of my dishwasher. No one has yet shown up to perform the repair. At one point AHS filled out the form wrong and the service tech who was en route said that it was not covered and I would have to pay. When I called AHS about this and asked for a supervisor they kept me on hold for 40 minutes and said no supervisor was available.The other two contractors AHS assigned have never contacted me, let alone shown up. For $900 a year premium (includes pool) I certainly expect better service than this!!!

    My AC unit stopped working. I called them to send service. They charged me $75 and after 5 days, I received an email from an AC company - that doesn't receive calls - to contact them. I couldn't as no one answers their phone - ever. So, I called AHS back, told them and they gave approval to go outside their network - because they had no one else they could send. I did. Got the system fixed and sent the invoice I paid to them. They aren't paying anything (including refunding me $75 for the initial call that never occurred or was able to occur) except a wheel (minor amount).

    A month later, on a Saturday afternoon, my septic backed up into my house, coming up through the drains. It was atrocious. I contacted my septic provider and they came out and replaced my pump and fixed the unit the same day. I contacted AHS about reimbursement but was told that I wouldn't receive anything back because I needed to call them first. I knew they wouldn't be able to get someone out to me asap and I didn't want to live in feces for days so I didn't. I explained it to them but they don't care. So, this warranty is virtually worthless. I really don't know how you folks have these 'good' reviews up as my experience - all the way around - was awful. Just plain awful. I'm sorry I wasted my money buying this unusable warranty.

    We have not had AC in our Las Vegas home for almost two week, with two toddlers in the house. They've had three people come out and won't approve a work order. The first people they sent said there was nothing wrong literally as the temperature in the house went from 80 to 82. The second company had a list of issues and they said the AHS declined the work order, and the third company had a list of issues but declined the work order because the second company should've done the work. My house got to 97 degrees with little kids and animals. They also told me they would only reimburse me for $60 on a portable AC unit. I can get a desk sized portable AC unit for $60, it definitely will not cool even a room in my 97 degree house. This has been a pain and a joke. I would not recommend American Home Shield to anyone.

    I've had American Home Shield for several years and decided it wasn't worth the $42.99/mo - $515.88/yr. The Value of their Service? In the last 5 years we have used them twice. Twice the technicians said they could only use a 'band-aid' fix, not real solution, to fix the problem. Our savings was approx. $300-$500 total on the two service calls we had, costing us $100 for each service call and the $2579.40 in our cumulative monthly fees. I'll let you decide if it's a good value, but you could probably put half of the payments into savings instead of paying them and have plenty of money to band-aid any problem like they would, for much less.

    Grand Hopes: I think I had grander hopes, like they would replace something that is broke or faulty, rather than put a band-aid on to keep it working another couple years, until you cancelled your service so they wouldn't have to pay out on anything big. Funny how our mind focus on what we want more than what we will likely get. Double Charged: 4+ years in, on our second service, we had a difficult time sorting out the $100 fee we had to pay out when they band-aid fixed out furnace; they charged us twice for the same problem. It took a couple months of calls and letters back and forth, but that finally got things resolved. If you have plenty of time to waste you will have no problem with their service.

    Good Value: If you are thinking short term, just bought a home and want peace of mind or know something is about to blow-up, this may be a great service and peace of mind... or not. I was lazy: I waited too long to cancel; I was lazy. They had been using a credit card that expired and I thought that when they asked to get a new card it was a good time to 'exit stage left', cancelling verbally is kinda like breaking up, not very fun and usually they draw it out by trying to woo you back or to stay with them. Only, a month later they figured out how to re-active their link to my new credit card that I don't use or look at the statements, just trying to pay it down; only to find out they have put another $214.95 back on it in my absence of reviewing that account. Me being lazy was costly for me, not for them.

I told customer service that I don't get my social security checks till the 27th of each month, so you can take the monthly fee out on the 28th of each month, the 2nd month they took it out on the 28th, the 3rd month they took it out on the 24th and my bank charged me a $35 overdraft fee.

No one ever called me back, so I called them today, and I was told that if I wanted to change the date from the 24th to the 28th of each month they would have to take out 2 payments.

    I asked to speak with a supervisor, and after 5 min of being on hold was told the supervisor was on another call. I again told customer service that the 28th was the original date of each month that they were to take the payment out of my acct, he told me policy was to take 2 payments if I wanted to change the date, so I totally canceled the service, very disgusted with this company.

    Everything is good with my experience with American Home Shield, so far. Everything has been pleasant. They’ve been professional and courteous. I have no complaints. I submitted a claim for the dishwasher but when the contractor came, he couldn’t do anything at that time because he didn’t have any of the parts. So, we had to wait. So, my part would be coming in for my dishwasher on Thursday. But it's a whole new dishwasher.

    When he came, I had explained it to him about the dishwasher and the stove situation. I said, “Here, I got a whole another stove that I went and bought listening to Sears and I got a dishwasher right here.” This is supposed to be the dishwasher, but when we opened it up, we still couldn't do anything with it because it's still just the metal frame, the stainless steel casing for the dishwasher. It didn’t have any heating element. It didn’t have any of the wire. It didn’t have anything.

    So, he took pictures of it and he sent it in. He said he couldn't believe they did it. I said, “Yeah," Because the repairman for Sears that came was supposed to be fixing the stove and the dishwasher, but the system was out. Then, we had a problem for anything to go through and he couldn’t cancel anything. So, when he called into the main office, they were even having a problem. So, I'm like, “can we just cancel and we just do it all together?” Nothing went through them but then all of a sudden, the package was dropped off and it was the dishwasher.

    I'm like, “I'm gonna get my dishwasher fixed.” But I never opened up the box. It's just sitting there. So, I'd had enough of Sears because it was supposed to be like American Home Shield is what I thought I had, but it wasn’t. And when I called Sears, it was only one item that was under warranty, and it was the washing machine and there was nothing else. So, I went online and I looked up all the different home warranties that they had and the only one that stood out was American Home Shield, so I said I'll go with American Home Shield. And I went with them and I have no problems, no complaints, and I've been telling everybody about American Home Shield.

    I had a problem with my faucet and I called AHS to get somebody out because the faucet had become really loose and I was afraid that it might start leaking. They took the information and said that someone would be calling me back. And that exactly happened. Within an hour somebody got back to me. They sent a plumber that afternoon and the faucet evidently was not in super great shape, and he worked quite a while to try to repair the faucet so that it would continue to work for me. He was a very hard worker.

    I was a new homeowner. I hadn't been in the property three days, and the air conditioner unit outside quit working. I had to call my lender and my real estate agent. I also called the title company and they told me I had a home warranty. They gave me the number to contact American Home Shield. I had to go through a lot. I had to appeal. American Home Shield tried to tell me that it wasn’t covered, and I had to get an attorney, and then I had to get the lender involved to sort out everything. Because when I hired the HVAC-certified inspector, he said that the system was working fine. But eventually, it got resolved.

    The contractor had to come out and bring a new condenser for the outside unit. But when he inspected the home unit, he said that there is a leak upstairs in the compressor in the attic, but it wasn’t leaking enough to warrant a repair. So, I took pictures and I have videos of it. But to me, it didn't make sense to replace the outside unit when the inside compressor noticeably has damage, and eventually, it’s gonna go out as well. It seemed like they would've just fixed the whole unit. The contractor also told me that American Home Shield will cover it when it breaks down. He said I just need to call American Home Shield back, which seems crazy to me. There's a big water stain in the floor, and it's probably gonna create more damage than just the compressor. They could have been preventive than reactive.

    American Home Shield has been easy to work with. It's a good business. I had a couple of claims with them. The freezer and icemaker of our refrigerator weren't working. The microwave also didn't work. It was pretty easy and painless making the claims with AHS. They sent out East Electronics and they showed up the following week. East Electronics thought they knew what the issue was. They were professional but when it came down to actually finding the root cause, it was a sealed system issue and not an icemaker issue. They bought a new icemaker and had it installed, but that didn't need to be done.

    My refrigerator is still not working. The sealed system guy came out and said it needed a new compressor. He was gonna go back to American Home Shield and see what they wanna do. It's been about two days now that I've been waiting to hear back. As for my microwave issue, I was able to purchase a new one. But I'm still waiting for it to be installed.

However, the experience depends on who the contractor is. We have continued AC trouble and they’re going back and forth between A-US Air and American Home Shield. I’ve been without AC for a week and a half, and I’m in Texas. I’m waiting for A-US Air to contact American Home Shield, and then American Home Shield to approve the repairs required. If they come back and replace my upstairs unit like the contractor says needs to be replaced, the repairs are made, and my AC’s fixed finally, then I would probably recommend American Home Shield.

    I've been AHS customer for 20 yrs @ 2 houses. AHS service keeps getting worse; recently it took 6 weeks to fix master bath shower faucet, because plumber doesn't arrive with repair parts even when they know what the problem is up front & company is booked up for 10 days after I call in the trouble ticket. When plumber couldn't remove the faulty part, he stated only solution was to "bust through the drywall" of the adjoining bedroom to remove the part. Finally a 2nd plumber came and completed the repair. But again, this was after 2 service calls, and I was without a master bath shower for 6 weeks. Unacceptable service. Why should I renew my contract when it's up in September?

    My cooktop started doing a random ticking so I contacted AHS. They came out 3 or 4 days later but at the time of the service inspector's arrival the cook top wasn't ticking. Let me add it typically ticks after I have been cooking for a while, so he said nothing was wrong with it and was about to leave. I said, "No it ticks after cooking but not all the time." He then mentioned it was likely the igniter and would order a part that would come to my home in 2 or 3 business days. They were ordered on 7/5 and it's 7/16 and I have not seen a part.

    I called to check on the parts as the inspector said he was coming today this afternoon to install the new part. Well wouldn't you know Sears nor AHS had no recollection of the follow-up appointment. Long story short after waiting on hold for a good 10 minutes with AHS, the woman comes back on the phone to say Sears are waiting on parts (that were supposed to come to me) and they don't have a service date and someone from Sears would call me when they can to update me. I paid $125 for the service fee and my stove still ticks after I cook. I will not recommend them to anyone because that was just ridiculous. I could have called a local repair shop and been better off.

    My A/C went out on Thursday evening. I got a fairly quick response and got a call from the service provider on Friday morning and we were able to make an appointment for Saturday morning. The tech came Saturday and quickly diagnosed the problem as something that would require additional manpower and time and would therefore require approval from AHS. I called later Saturday to see how things were progressing and was told that once it was approved I would hear something. I called again Monday around noon and over the course of 3 phone calls got 3 very different stories. The first told me I should hear something in 24-48 business hours, but struggled to understand what I was asking about. The second told me everything was approved, I owed nothing and that we were waiting on the technician to order the part needed.

    I then called the technician and asked when it might come, if we could get a date on the schedule. They were surprised as they had not received the approval. I called AHS a third time to ask why it had not been sent and learned it was not approved yet after all, that it should be approved that day or the following morning and I would owe some kind of money. This person said the previous person needed additional training and that the supervisor would be listening to the tape of our conversation. Meanwhile it is summer in Texas and the temp in my home is now in the eighties. The following day, when I had heard nothing by noon, I called again and was told that because the second woman told me the wrong thing, it now has to be reviewed by a supervisor and that the supervisor had 24-48 hours to get back to me. I asked to speak to a supervisor and was told that was impossible and that I could be sent to an escalation team.

    I asked to be transferred, when transferred a message stated that the escalation team was not taking calls and that I should use normal channels then the call abruptly ended. When I called back to once again insist on speaking to someone who could actually help me I was told this was impossible. At this point, I am contacting a repairman outside of this so that my air conditioner can actually be fixed! The whole process has been frustrating and nothing is getting done. To quote my mother “The policy is not worth the paper it is printed on”. My customer satisfaction is zero and I will not be recommending this company to anyone. I would like to add that there is nowhere to leave a written review, yet there are glowing reviews on the website which remain the same though the dates keep updating to make them current, indicating they are either false or someone keeps changing the dates to make them look more recent.

    On 27 April 2019 I contacted American Home Shield (AHS) to have a technician check our refrigerator that was making an unusual noise. On 29 April 2019 I called AHS and directed them to cancel the Work Order for the repair as there was nothing wrong with the refrigerator as it turned out to be the breaker in the breaker box had failed. I had an electrician replace the breaker and the refrigerator worked just fine. On 29 April 2019, the day I had the Work Order cancelled, the AHS Representative confirmed to me that the repairmen had done nothing to that point, no work undertaken and the repairman had not been to our residence.

    The AHS Representative confirmed that my credit card would not be charged the $100 Service Fee and everything was in order. AHS, then on the very same day, 29 April 2019 billed my credit card for the $100 Service Fee. AHS contends they issued a credit to my credit card on 05 June 2019 which they certainly did not. Not only that but after 11 phone calls to AHS since 29 April 2019 AHS has made conflicting statements as to reimbursement for the erroneous charge to my credit card. I was told on three separate occasions by AHS that a personal check for $100 had been processed, firstly on 27 May 2019 and then AHS changed that date to 05 June 2019 stating that within 14-21 Business Days the check would arrive. These statements made by AHS were totally untrue.

    The last five phone calls to AHS they changed their story once again with the AHS Representative stating the $100 credit was issued to my credit card on 05 June 2019 with no personal check having been sent and that IT WAS NOW MY RESPONSIBILITY TO PROVE THAT AHS DID NOT PROVIDE A CREDIT TO MY CARD. This is absolutely ridiculous. AHS is the most unprofessional company I've ever dealt with. I informed AHS the burden of proving AHS did not issue a credit to my credit card did not lie with me but rather AHS needed to proved they had issued such credit and to contact the bank who issued the card. The bank confirmed no such credit had been issued and would be happy to advise AHS of such.

    The last six phone calls that I made to AHS I insisted on speaking with a Supervisor only to be told by the AHS Representative that they handle matters at their level with clients and that as far as they were concerned my issue had been addressed and therefore no need to speak with a Supervisor. They then outright refused to transfer me to a Supervisor. It is now 16 July 2019, two and one-half months since my account was erroneously charged by AHS.

But I'm a Realtor and I understand that a customer is paying approximately $700 for a home warranty when the potential of risk there for American Home Shield to lose money is huge. So, they have to go through a process to make sure that all claims are legit. I totally get it but it just takes forever to navigate the process. When you have a washing machine that’s broken, it’d be nice if they had a different way to get through that that didn’t take so long. Also, my AC is broken and it should be covered, but it's not. The guy who came out said there was something else wrong than what the guy who called me said, but there again, I see their status. They’ve already spent more than they’ve gotten fixing my things. There is value to their warranty, but it's exhausting.

The contractors were trying to fix Freon leaks. The compressor and evaporator pump were not working in the air conditioning system. The contractors were very friendly, except for the one from US Air. He was a large man that didn’t fit into my available attic space. He couldn’t maneuver in there well, and he didn’t like the working conditions. So, he did a little bit of work, but not all of the work, and it had to get turned over to another company. And they did the work, but they left me with leaks in a couple of pipes. And then we had to submit other claims to get those pipe leaks fixed.

    Eventually they got it all done. But each time they came out, they left something undone that had to be followed up. This has been about three months. But it’s resolved now. American Home Shield did what they were supposed to do. They contracted with service technicians to come out and do the work and charged me my regular deductible.

    My most recent claim with American Home Shield was due to my air conditioning system leaking water out of my basement floor. The repair technician from the company called Fast Service came the next day. It was a pretty quick response. They identified the problem and were able to fix it immediately. They also informed me of a few other potential things that might need to be repaired on in the future. They weren't there for much more than 30 minutes. It was a pretty quick process overall. My air conditioning is working and it hasn’t leaked since.

    This was the second time I used my home warranty. Both times have been really good so far. This recent one was pretty efficient. I did both claims through the AHS online request portal. It was really easy. I selected the category of the part that was wrong and they contacted me letting me know they would set up an appointment through email. And within the same day, they usually let me know who the contractor was gonna be. That company usually reached out to me to let me know when the appointment was gonna be. If someone says they need a home warranty, I would probably recommend American Home Shield.

    The claim for the plumbing issue was an awesome experience. The first company couldn't get to me until three days later which wasn't good for me because water was leaking from my sink to my floor. When I spoke with the representative from American Home Shield and told them that, they used a subcompany that was able to get to me that same day within a couple of hours. By the time I got home, they were here. The guy took care of the issue. But the claim prior to that was awful. My experience with Bennett AC, the HVAC company that American Home Shield sent out to check my air conditioning, wasn't that great as a customer because I clearly felt that they were trying to take advantage of me as a single mother and as a woman.

    I reached back out to American Home Shield and spoke with the representative once the certain part got approved. Bennett AC claimed that they needed to do all this other work and the amount of money that they were gonna charge me for the part that American Home Shield didn't cover was outrageous. The representative at American Home Shield told me that it was clear that Bennett AC was trying to take advantage of me. When I spoke with the approval agent at American Home Shield, she said that I can find another company and send them the receipt and get reimbursed. I didn't have to use that company they sent out to me. My experience with American Home Shield has been good. The problem is with some of the companies that they have in their list. Also, American Home Shield's online process in submitting a claim is not difficult but they don't have a response and I need to speak with someone.

    My air conditioner stopped working and when I got home, it was already in the high 90s. I made a service request twice, once on June 1st, and then July 1st. The contractor that AHS sent was very professional both times. He fixed it the first time and then this same contractor came back out the next time that was something about a cap that wasn't working and he fixed it right away. AHS did everything that I thought was really helpful. I was able to make the service request on the same service request instead of paying $75 twice so that was really convenient.

    My most recent claim with American Home Shield went very well. My AC went out. I had to wait as long as I did for them to come, and it was so hot, but I understand. Once they got here and took care of the problem, it went excellently. The contractor replaced what had gone out and we've been up and running ever since. He fixed it within an hour or less. He was very courteous, very kind, and very professional. And he explained everything to us.

    We’ve had a really good experience with American Home Shield. There was a leak of water coming out from underneath the refrigerator and it was an urgent situation. My wife works all day, while I’m disabled in here and unable to do much to clean up after a leak. AHS sent a guy out from Heritage Appliance right away and he was very professional when he pulled the refrigerator out. He said it was a hose in the back that was loose, and he fixed that and fastened it tighter to the back of the fridge to keep it from doing it again, then he left.

    The next day, we realized the refrigerator was no longer leaking, but it was also no longer making ice. We can deal with that, but when I called the home warranty people, they either couldn’t get ahold of the first guy, or chose to go to Big Ten. They sent a guy named Les out and at first he was hesitant because the information in my file said it’s an LG refrigerator, but they thought it was a GE, and Les doesn’t work on LG refrigerators. I spoke to him about that and he was kind enough to come out and give it a try. He tried two or three different things and he wasn’t sure if any of them were gonna work. It was a Friday and he told me call him back on Monday morning and to let him know whether it worked or not. Over the weekend, the refrigerator started to make ice again, so it’s all fine now.

    Les gets really high marks. He was out in Pickerington and he went out of his way to be available to fix a problem he shouldn’t have been assigned. Apparently, something the other guy did when he moved the fridge back caused it to block access of the water to the ice. Still, both guys were very professional. One was just successful and the other one was not. I also had American Home Shield a few years ago when we had a condo, and they have been very helpful.

    There was a leak under the kitchen sink. I spoke to a representative at American Home Shield over the phone because I wasn't sure what the problem was. Flow Right Plumbing were the first plumbers that were recommended. I had a horrible experience with them. But then, AHS sent another plumber, LiveGreen Plumbing, and it went like soft butter. It was perfect.

    With Flow Right, I kept calling back to American Home Shield saying that they weren't showing up. That went on for like a week. And the American Home Shield reps were foreign-speaking reps, and I ran into a big problem. It bothered me so bad. I woke up at 4:00 in the morning and called and got an English-speaking person. And it doesn't matter to me one way or the other as long as you go through. But the foreign-speaking reps that they had kept insisting there was nothing they could do, that I was stuck with Flow Right, and that's who the contract was with. My argument was my contract is with American Home Shield, and I have nothing to do with who they contract out. And if I'm not satisfied, I requested another contractor, and they wouldn't do it. It took me a whole week before I found someone that would do it and that would change from Flow Right to LiveGreen.

    I told the English-speaking rep, "Look, I put in a complaint against Flow Right. They're not gonna come." And so, at 4 o'clock in the morning, she said, "I'm gonna send another plumber." It took me a week to get someone to listen to me because the other rep said American Home Shield kept saying they couldn't change it once the contract was put. But I knew American Home Shield could do it, which is why I kept calling back. I knew they would do it. I'm gonna stay with American Home Shield because I love them. I would recommend American Home Shield.

    It's very simple and easy navigating the American Home Shield website. The thing about is it all depends on the person. If you have a person who loves to call and make things happen because they don't have time to be on a computer and do this, that's one thing. But for a person like me, I work with computers all day. I know that technology is gonna cause you to wait a while. I have learned patience for that because no matter how much I rush, that computer is only gonna move as fast my internet connection.

    After making my claim, I was given time to expect my contractor US Air Conditioning. They met my expectation. Normally, you get a four-hour window and that's understandable. If they are running late, I get a call saying the technician would be running late because of complications. The communication is there and I'm pleased with that. Prior to US Air Conditioning coming out, I had a company come out and they replaced the outside compressor of my AC. But in less than 60 days, it went out again. US Air Conditioning replaced it for me and they did a wonderful job. The AC has been operating great. I was hot then but now, I'm cold.

    The contractor was awesome. When the guy came out, he said it might take a while to get this order because it was more of a brand new compressor and they had to order it. I got a call the next day when it turned over to a different department. It was to let them settle the battle because it could have been an issue and the last technician could have messed it up. After a couple of days, I got a call saying that they wanted to schedule a time to do our compressor. I had family coming in town, so they worked out great for me. The rep was awesome too. He was very professional. I understand the business model and the customer service part. I believe in speaking out.

    A couple times I looked at American Home Shield and I ask myself like, "Why am I paying this money for them and these things?" I had an issue with the microwave and the people that came out scraped off the little rough end side and they painted it with regular paint. They spray painted the inside. But it was still doing the same thing. And if the paint heats up, it could be toxic. I caught the issue after 60 days and I had to pay another deductible. The next person came out that looked at it.

    I kinda wanted the first contractor who came to be on the blacklist. That was one of my main reason for panicking. Sometimes, you gotta talk to your technicians because you gotta know what they did. Also, the same person broke my gas stove. Instead of fixing it or saying they had to order another one, he dropped the little thing on there. I now have a gas stove with a little peak that covered the gas part and the screw that broke off in there. American Home Shield contract people out. Without people that call and follow up, they'll never get the truth back about those contractors. That's why it's always good to have places that call and check. It's always good to have people like me that love to get feedback.

    My wife heard water leaking in our bathroom and the guy from Budget Rooter came over to find out where it was coming from. We were unable to identify it but he did the best he could. He was great. My experience with Budget Rooter was pleasant but it didn't necessarily resolve what we were hoping to resolve. That would probably require additional investigation that I was not ready to do at the time. The source of the drops is still questionable. We looked for water anywhere that we could think of. When he came, he didn't even hear the drops that my wife claims was bothering her. I go in there periodically and I sometimes hear it, and sometimes, I don't so it's not really a big deal especially when I don't see any leaks or water anywhere.

    American Home Shield generally sends out quality people. I'm gonna use them again 'cause I have a refrigeration problem. They have sent a guy up before who fixed it, but that was like four, five months ago. The issue is that my ice cubes are not coming out. It's not even filled with water so I'm not sure where the problem is.

But I went down there myself and kinda fiddled around for a little bit and found a loose wire that they hadn’t found. And so, I did like a temporary fix on it and I called them up and told them what the problem was. I believe they came out and fixed it. I never heard back, but the air conditioner is still working. So, either my temporary fix is still working or they came in and finalized it.

    I did my claim with American Home Shield online. The process was very easy. The office called me and asked if this time would work. We're always here,so they could just come any time, and then they would. With the air conditioning issue, I told the contractors I'd leave the house unlocked, and they could come and go as they want.

Then it has remained an open ticket for the last 6 months with no communication to me.

    I have called repeatedly, been disconnected repeatedly, the 24-48 hour call-back window has been consistently ignored. After threatening to sue for breach of contract I have finally received a call back stating that they are unable to find a vendor and will keep looking. They "authorized" me to locate a plumber myself without any assurance that the cost will be reimbursed. I purchased this warranty service to save having to go through arranging repair service myself.

    American Home Shield offers little to no coverage when you read the fine print. First of all, they pick the technician to send out to you. When our A/C unit went out, I called to get someone to come out to fix it, but I wanted to use a company I have dealt with or at least had heard of. I was on the phone for over 30 minutes, and the woman told me I could call a service technician I knew of but they had to approve the company. She recommended that I at least start with the company they provide and that if I didn't like them, I could use a company I chose, pending their approval. So I agreed. It took two weeks to get a call from the A/C company to set up an appointment! They said that American Home Shield gave them the phone number of the previous owners of our home!

    So we went ahead and made an appointment, and we let them come out. The technician said our unit was leaking Freon. He said he could add the amount we needed but that American Home Shield only covers $10 per pound! We had to pay the rest! That's in addition to the $75 per service call you pay. Some homeowners' coverage!

    Less than a month later, our second A/C unit started doing the same thing as the first. But a technician we know told us that A/C units should not leak Freon! If they do, there is some problem causing the leak! So I called and told American Home Shield that I didn't trust the company that came out, since they didn't fix the underlying cause of the leak, and we were told it will continue to occur. I didn't want that company coming out again, so I asked if we could go ahead and pick our own technician, and I would have him call them for their approval.

    This person contradicted the person I spoke with the first time and said we couldn't do that. We have to go with their technicians unless they are unavailable. It became clear to us that they only use service providers that agree to do work that costs American Home Shield as little as possible. They just fix the symptom so that by the time it occurs again, your warranty will likely be expired, unless you are dumb enough to pay them for another one!!! So after more than an hour on the phone, I told the person I wanted to speak to her supervisor. She even needed approval for that! And she put me on hold again! After about 5 more minutes on hold, they hung up on me! Some service! Terrible coverage! Waste of time and money!

    The repairman came out and unblocked some-kind of drip vent that was iced over not allowing it to drain which in turn kept it from getting cold. Well I waited 48 plus hours before opening the fridge and it was not cold, it was cool but nowhere near cold enough to safely put food back in (even turned to the coldest setting) I called and they rescheduled a tech. The tech was rescheduled. They said it needed a new mother board and switch (STILL waiting on approval) but it turns out the repair company didn't submit for approval on ordering parts or even repairing until later last Friday so that explains the lapse and is not AHS' fault. Still something they should address with the repair company.

    NOW on to the more pressing issue The toilet. I placed a service call for a toilet that will not allow enough water in to effective and safely use for anything other than #1. The repairman was sent (from Allstate plumbing here locally) so let's start with strike 1... the "repair guy: showed up in an unmarked vehicle with no identification and no tools in sight. Strike 2.... he spent an hour and a half here repeatedly flushing the toilet, nothing else just flushing. A few times he threw in some toilet paper, but just continued to flush.

    Strike 3, he called his office and asked for assistance and told them what was happening, he was told (I could hear the conversation) that they were not equipped to do this kind of diagnostics and to tell the warranty company to call in another company to diagnose for them. Strike 3, as the repair guy left his office called me to inform me he was on his way - I in turn informed them he was leaving, and I needed more information why nothing was done further than flushing the toilet over 100 times, and that not a single tool was brought in the house. She told me they needed to have AHS approve further diagnostics but they could not provide them as they were not equipped.

    Skip forward to a week later, I call (AGAIN for the 5th time) to get information, because if no one is going to fix it I want my service fee refunded so I can call in a actual plumber to come look at the toilet, I mean I could have flushed it 100 times myself, and run up the water bill for said flushes. The person I spoke to today gave me zero information, barely spoke English, and said it was not covered with the diagnosis they received. I tried to tell her that there was no diagnosis because they said they were not equipped to do so. She couldn't tell me anymore. I asked for a supervisor (the second time I have called for a supervisor and the second time I have been told that the supervisor is to busy to talk to me). I am beyond irritated at this time. I have 2 repairs that are approximately 2 weeks old that are not being done, but I have paid all of my fees. NO one seems to ever have an answer and nothing is a priority.

    If the toilet isn't covered they should have said that when I told them the issue and not take my service fee. If they are unable to fix the fridge they should replace it, in a timely manner not keep stringing me along with no answers and no actions. The way all of these are being handled is awful I am an extremely unhappy customer that is looking into a new warranty company, because when the warranty company takes pride and cares about their customers the warranty is great and a life saver but when they don't do anything but take your money and not fix things and not in timely manners that is another story that I am not willing to be apart of. I just want a refund of service fees or a timely fix, is that so hard to ask for?

    I have been waiting since June 25, 2019 for the replacement part for my air conditioning unit to arrive at the vendor so they can install (today is July 15th). As of today, it still has not arrived and I have no AC in 100 degree temps. Each time I call I get the same lame run-around-story. I have asked to speak to a manager or someone in charge of the department and I get told they can't connect me to them. When I ask for a tracking number for the part, I am told there is no tracking number. When I ask if they can at least verify that they have sent it to the correct vendor they tell me they can not. The part should have arrived on July 2nd, at the very least they should have sent another part 2-day delivery. Overnight delivery would be better. I am a very unhappy and unsatisfied customer.

    This company is absolutely despicable. I've had them for over 5 years and on 2 different properties - firing AHS for engaging in denial of service as well as delays in service that are designed to make the policyholders search elsewhere (not meeting their obligation). Think of it like this - you will get someone to your property but they will either say nothing is wrong or they need a part etc. If you know what the issue is, it doesn't matter - they won't bring the parts needed - they must determine it. They have left my tenants with a broken AC unit in 3 weeks and counting of 90+ degree heat.

    I'm on over 4 visits (between two companies that AHS contracts with). Both of those companies have vastly different answers. The first company said nothing was wrong. The second said the capacitor was blown and that the compressor wasn't even running <-- how is that even ok? They work off the idea that you will stop pursuing their obligation due to the run-around. If you try calling, you'll be talking to someone in the Philippines - clearly they are trained to talk to frustrated policyholders and dodge responsibility using techniques such as ensuring they will take care of you by doing exactly what you can do - request a follow-up. If you ask for management, they will tell you that the manager is busy, that same person will later say that they are not allowed to transfer to a manager (contradicts their first stance), then they will put you on hold, then they will hang up.

    This is the type of stuff that needs to be on the news. That is a complaint all in itself alone. I'm filing a complaint with the BBB. They have now cost me more than a policy is ever worth because they are affecting my business. STAY AWAY. If you are a lawyer or have been burnt by this company, please feel free to reach out to start a class action.

    Darika from the social media team did a great job working with getting us a different vendor. The vendor fixed my plumbing issue completely and very quickly (less than an hour)! Thank you!

    Original Review: July 15, 2019

    We had the misfortune of having our toilet leak the day after closing and we thankful to have a home warranty. We called and paid the deductible only to find out the plumbing company assigned to us had horrific (not exaggerating) reviews on Google and Yelp! I called to see if we could have another vendor come instead (also they couldn’t come to fix the problem for 5 days) and they said I must have them first come out and to call back if it’s a bad experience.

    Long story short, they came to my house and said because we had cleaned up the leak and removed the broken items, that this was not something they would look at or fix unless I paid over 790 dollars!! I was shocked at their “visual diagnosis” and they asked to see my inspector report—why they would be privy to this or need this is beyond me! I left work early to accommodate their schedule, even though I called to say I would only be free after 3:30PM. I have called AHS a total of 5 times and am still awaiting a response (promised 3 calls from service agents & the authorization department). Each of the employees seem nice, but ultimately keep delaying me to call again later and that no supervisor can help me or is available. I wish I could have my deductible amount back, because I would have already paid to have this fixed! I am not pleased.

    I returned from vacation earlier this week to find my house was 96 degrees inside. Phoenix temps this weeks have been exceptionally high. We are under a heat advisory because it's regularly over 110 degrees outside. So how soon could AHS send someone out? 5 days. They actually thought it was ok to tell me that I would have to wait 5 days to have it looked at. Needless to say, it's a health and safety issue when the temp is that high so I had to pay a vendor and not use the AHS service.

    This evening I had a faucet break and the water could not be turned off at all. I called AHS again to see how quickly I could get service on it and I was told I needed to pay the $75 service fee and wait 24 hours for a vendor to call me to tell me what day they could come out. The rep could not tell me whether I would be waiting a day or a week or more. Again, I have to call a vendor and work outside the maintenance contract. I cannot imagine worse service. The annual service contract with this company appears to be a complete waste of money. I would not recommend them.

    My air conditioner stopped working and I called American Home Shield up. Unfortunately, things always happen on the hottest day of the year and their contractors, Total Air, said that they couldn't send a tech over until 5 days later. I have a wife that’s not in perfect health. She has COPD and she has oxygen in a house with 100-degree temperatures. The following day, I found out that Total Air wasn't coming and they couldn't do the job. I called them back and they said that they would find someone for me. Thereafter Perry Mechanical came that same day as they said. Their tech was very professional. He went to the back and found what the issue was very quickly. He changed the part and was out within half an hour. Since then, the AC has been great. Though our experience with the original company that AHS was supposed to send was not too good, I'm totally satisfied with Perry.

    The representatives from the contractor came out three different times. And each time, they told me they fixed the issue and that the system was working properly now. But the first time, they said some insulation had fallen off and fell into some pan, and it clogged something. So they removed that and said everything was fine now. But it wasn't fine. That same night, it was super hot upstairs. And then the next time, the guy came in and said our drain line was clogged. He suctioned it out and said everything was fine now. But that night, it was super hot again.

    When the third guy came out, he went up into the attic and said we needed additional insulation up here since we don't have enough insulation. I told him that this system has been working for 13 years and I've never had a problem, and no one's ever said I need additional insulation. So why all of a sudden now does it need additional insulation in my attic to make the AC cool? I didn't understand that. They cleared the line but that's not what the issue was, because I'm not noticing it's much cooler now.

    We have three AC units, and the one that cools upstairs is not cooling like the other two are cooling. So technically, nothing has been fixed. I told that to American Home Shield and they said they would send another person out. So I had called for a fourth visit. Then I didn't respond to them because if they are gonna send the same company four times in a row, what difference are they gonna do than they did the first three times. If they don't know what they're doing, then I'm just wasting my time. Because I have to take off work, stay home and wait for them. It's been a pain. But I have no issues with American Shield itself. It's the contractor that they sent out these last three times. In the fourth call I placed, they said they couldn't change it to a different contractor because that's who's in the system. And I told them that I didn't wanna go through this a fourth. So I'm just dealing with it. You just get to a point where you get tired of it.

The water restoration company found no mold, and cut a 6x6 hole in the ceiling. The plumber came back 3x - but did not fix the leak! He stated he would need to refer to a specialist that can fix leaks as it was from the Whirlpool system (the tub is a Whirlpool tub). I called AHS at least 9x over the past 6 weeks, and kept getting referred to companies that said they didn't work on Whirlpools.

    Finally yesterday (7/13/19) AHS stated they would not help because it SEEMS the leak is from a Whirlpool jet - which is not covered! So now I have a leaky tub, an open hole in my ceiling and 6 weeks of multiple calls and time off work - NO RESULT - POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE - NOT WHAT I EXPECTED. DO NOT EXPECT THEM TO HELP OUT IN ANY MEANINGFUL WAY! The first plumber merely said he needed to refer it out. I don't even know if it is leaking from a jet or a pipe!

Last week my 19 year old A/C unit failed and I contacted AHS. They dispatched service technician and he determined that there was a leak in a coil. The part was not in stock and to get one would take 10 days. AHS decided that they would approve the repair with the 10 day wait. I live in West Texas with daily temperatures >100 degrees, but AHS did not do as their ads would have you believe, they took the cheapest way out. Just know that when you contact them about A/C problems AHS goes into defensive mode and will screw you to the wall. I also would like you to know that their conflict resolution person kept me on hold for 30 measured minutes hoping I would hang up. I didn’t and he was totally inept.

    Everybody at American Home Shield has been great and I would definitely recommend them. When we had a clog in our kitchen sink, we first thought it was the garbage disposal. A garbage disposal person came out first, and that person realized it was something else and called American Home Shield on our behalf. However, there was a little bit of snafu. It was over a week after American Home Shield sent out someone and I was getting kind of upset. They couldn’t get ahold of the original company who didn’t answer for me or American Home Shield and never called to make the appointment. So, we were without a kitchen sink or a dishwasher or a garbage disposal for a full week which was not good.

    American Home Shield gave us another company who made a Sunday call, and that person who couldn’t fix it with the garbage disposal actually called a plumber that was able to come out later that day on a Sunday. It did take longer than I wanted it to, but I was happy with the two people who came to the house. The quality of work is good. At first, I was not happy at all with that length of time, but I thought it was rectified. And ultimately, I don’t believe it was American Home Shield’s fault. I believe it was the first person who was contacted and I don’t know if American Home Shield has a way to monitor that contractor never made an appointment with us.

My water heater seemed a little overwhelming to him, and there was a lot of extra gadgets on it. He didn’t really know what those gadgets were for. The sensor started when he was here, but then it went out again. So the situation wasn’t really resolved. I still am taking the shower with cold water.

    The technician said that I had to call American Home Shield because they don’t cover the sensor, which is weird because I went through my warranty before and they actually replaced the sensor. It seems like they’ve changed what’s covered and what’s not covered, and what they’ll do and what they won’t do. American Home Shield has changed a lot of the things that they used to cover, and they’re getting to be more expensive. Also, the quality of people that they are contracted with is less than desirable.

    I had a wall oven that wasn’t working and submitting the claim was easy. We had a gentleman come and look at the unit, and he said it was not repairable so a new unit was ordered which was fine. The other day, I got the delivery, but they didn’t take the old one because it was in the wall so now, I’m stuck with an extra oven that’s sitting in my garage. I need somebody to come and take it. We also had to install the oven ourselves. It shouldn’t have been difficult if information was given to me. If I would’ve known that it was just delivery people delivering it instead of the company that was delivering and installing it, it wouldn’t have been an issue. Luckily, my husband has an electrical background so he installed it. If not for him, we’d not have been able to. But I got an oven and I will definitely use American Home Shield again.

I've had American Home Shield for 15 years and I'm quite satisfied with them. When I had some repairs done to my stove because I couldn't read the panel anymore, the tech who came out couldn't fix it. So, he put it in for replacement, and they sent me the information. But the one that I want right now is not in stock, so I’m waiting for it to come up.

    When my hot water heater went out, I called American Home Shield and they had a plumber call me and schedule a service. The contractor was excellent. They had one fellow come out and look at my hot water heater. He came and told me that the unit died. He had me come down and look at it. There was water leaking from it down to the floor. He said he would contact American Home Shield and recommend a new water heater. That might’ve been on Friday. By Sunday, I had the plumber calling me to schedule an appointment for Monday. By Monday, I had my new hot water heater. It was wonderful and I was satisfied. They were very efficient and helpful. It was a very good experience.

    My experience with AHS is horrible. I initially placed a call on June 2nd because my air unit was leaking water in the basement and the copper tubing had ice on it. So, I called and told them. They told me someone would contact me within 24 hours. But, it wasn't 24 hours. It was more like three days. That was the first problem. When the guy came out, he told me that there was a piece that was missing from the unit, and that's why it wasn't cooling. But he didn't address the issue of the water.

    So, he said, "Without that piece on there, there's no way for anybody to know how much refrigerant you have in the unit." He said, "I'm gonna put this piece on here, but you need six pounds of refrigerant." He said American Home Shield only pays $10 for each pound. And I was aware of that. So, he charged me $240 for six pounds of refrigerant.

    The following day, I go on the basement, water is still dripping from the unit. So, I called American Home Shield again. They said they'd send someone else out. I said, "Could you send out someone more senior?" The person said, they'd put that in their notes. But, the next day, the same guy came out! I was kinda shocked! And he said, "What's the problem, ma'am?" I said, "The problem is still the same. I have water that's still dripping from the unit." So, he took a look at it, and he put some kind of black stuff on it like tar. It's supposed to seal it. He said, "This should set in about a couple of hours, and the water should stop." So, couple of hours went by, I decided to go down, see if it was still dripping. By this time, water is filling up. Instead of dripping, it's filling up.

    So, I called American Home Shield again. I said, "Can you send out someone more senior than the person that you sent out?" But on the third time, it's the same guy. I said, "This has to be a one-man operation because here is the same guy coming three times when I specifically say to send someone with more experience!" So, he came in. He said, "What's the problem, ma'am?" I said, "The problem is now, it has exacerbated." I kept putting towels there each day and before the day was over, the towel would be just dripping wet. And I would take the towel and put it to the side and then put another one under there. So, he said, "Whoever installed it did something wrong, and there's nothing I can do about it. Your problem is normal wear and tear, and American Home Shield doesn't cover normal wear and tear."

    I said, "Then why would I have a home warranty policy that doesn't cover normal wear and tear. What do they cover, abuse?" I said, "Normal wear and tear. I'm gonna have to use it! Otherwise, why would I have it if I'm not gonna use it?" So, he said, "I don't know for you then, but there's nothing I can do." So, I called American Home Shield, and they told me that they couldn't do anything until they received a diagnosis from Air Doc. Air Doc never sent in a diagnosis. And when they did reach out the first time, he told them something about I said water was dripping and that it had stopped. But the water never stopped.

    They said, "We'll just wait for Air Doc to diagnose what the problem is." But Air Doc got to the point where Air Doc would not respond to anybody's call. Then, American Home Shield told me to call Air Doc. Air Doc would not respond. So, they said, "we have to wait. We're gonna submit this to the contractors' relations review." Now, we're in the second week, and it's 95 degrees.

    So, I'm calling every other day just waiting and waiting for the contractors relations review. Another two weeks go by before they even respond. And they finally decided, "We're gonna send out First Choice. Someone should call you in 24 hours." Again, 24 hours went by but no call from First Choice. So, I decided to call First Choice. First Choice came out. The young man said to me, "What idiot installed this? This shouldn't have been done this way."

    He said, "How much did you pay for your refrigerant?" I said, "I got six pounds, and I paid $240, so it's about $40 a pound. Maybe $50 because American Home Shield paid $10." He said, "Our refrigerant is $85 a pound." And he said, "I know what the problem is. I'm going to order the part, and I'm gonna go and pick it up. And you should have air tonight." But about 8 o'clock that night, I didn't hear from First Choice. So, I called First Choice. The guy said, "We're waiting for American Home Shield to approve of the part." I said, "But you told me you were ordering the part, you were going to pick it up! I didn't know what the procedure was!"

    I thought he had made contact with American Home Shield because he did make a couple of phone calls, and I thought maybe because this was the second person for a second opinion, that they have approved of whatever was needed, and he was going to pick the part up. And he was coming by and he was gonna put it on that night. He said, "No. American Home Shield hasn't responded, so we have to wait for them to approve." The next day, I decided to call American Home Shield. And they said, "We don't have a diagnosis, so we can't approve of anything." I said, "But he told me he was waiting for you all to approve!" They said, "No. We don't have anything from them. We'll send out a message for him to contact us." So, another day goes by.

    I called back. American Home Shield said, "We still don't have a diagnosis from First Choice." I said, "But why would he tell me that he was coming back to do the part, so that I would have air that same night. And he was waiting for you all."I called the next day. And then the person said, "We'll give him until Monday to call." Monday morning around 9 o'clock, I got a call from American Home Shield, and they said he just called in the diagnosis. And I said, "I don't even want him to do the work because he was very unprofessional. He's disrespectful, and now as far as I'm concerned, he was dishonest because he lied to me! I can't believe everything which he is telling me."

    I said, "You want me to pay $85 a pound for refrigerant, when I paid $50 a pound with the previous contractor! So, why is yours so expensive?" Then, he tells me that he was going to have to basically rebuild the unit after he put in the evaporator coil. And then, American Home Shield told me, I would have to pay $300 for modification, $300 for refrigerant, and another $300 for something else. It came to another 150. But it came to $600 that I would have to pay out of my pocket! And I said, "I've already paid $75. I've already paid $220. And now, you wanna charge me $600 for some refrigerant that I've already paid for through a contractor that you sent out!"

    The person that I was communicating with was Lisa. She said that that would be my part that I would have to pay because American Home Shield would not cover that. And I said, "Correction! I had to pay that because someone else did not correct the problem with the initial call, and now it has progressed to something else! And now, I'm supposed to pay for it! I'm supposed to suffer the consequences!"

    So, then the person came back and said, "We will allow you $300 for refrigerant and something else." But the total was $700 that they would give me to get someone on my own. Before that, I said, "Something has to be done." So, I called American Home again, and the guy first told me, "We can send you a check out for this amount, and you get somebody on your own." But that amount of the check was not the same amount that they were going to pay First Choice. They were going to pay First Choice more than what they were offering me to get somebody to do the same work that First Choice was going to do, and then you were asking me to pay an additional $600! Which to me, American Home is screwing me!

    Lisa came back and said, "We'll allow you," It was 1192, "And you get someone on your own to do the work, and just submit the invoice to us." And that was on the 11th of July. So, now we're going into a month and a half of me being without any air! So, then she said, it was my understanding that she was going to process the check on the 11th.

    And according to an email that I saw that she sent, she supposedly processed it on the 11th, but the check was not cut until the 17th. And I got it on the 21st. So, between that time, I'm wondering, I've had the persons come out to do the work. I had to pay the person out of my pocket. Now, I don't have the check from them! So, I said, "I'm going to wait until Saturday to see if the check comes." But in between that, I've sent her an email. And I said, "What mail service did you use to send the check out?" Because I know that from the 11th until the 21st, if you put a check on the mail, I should have gotten it. It should have gone back to you if it was the wrong address, come back to me, and then that's that. They're putting me through all the stress, and on top of that, I still have time to deal with the heat. I can't sleep. I can't cook.

    So, the check arrived on Saturday. I took a picture of the date on the check and the postmark. I sent her an email, and I told her I got the check and received it on Saturday. And I sent a picture, a copy of the postmark and the check through the email. American Home Shield has been horrible. It doesn't seem like I'm the first person because I talked to another person, and they told me that they had the same experience with American Home Shield. This is ridiculous here. I went a month and a half without any air, and nobody seemed to care.

    I filed a claim about three weeks ago in regards to our pool pump which wasn't working properly. When the contractor came down, he said it was a little fuse that went out which was an easy fix and then he fixed that. While he was there, he also told me that the casing on the filter is not gonna last a lot longer. He said that it has a little bit of leakage and that it was something that my AHS warranty covers. He took a couple of pictures of the model and then took off. That very same day, I submitted another claim for the casing of the filter. My husband was here when he came. He told me that the tech came and took pictures but he didn't come prepared with the casing. Apparently, he has to treat it as a whole new claim and submit an order for a part. But he was just here and he already knew exactly what we needed.

    I called that afternoon and asked what was going on. I spoke to the tech and explained to him what I was gonna do in order to avoid this time. They're from San Diego so they only come down every Tuesday. I said, "I'm gonna be stuck waiting another week." The lady rep from Unified mentioned that they were gonna get the parts that Thursday and schedule the tech for Tuesday. This was two weeks ago, July the 9th. So, I took some time off from work to be there myself so I can speak to the tech. They told me they were going to be there between 8:00 and 12:00. It was around 11 o'clock already so I called to follow up and she told me that they didn't have a scheduled appointment.

    She told me I wasn't scheduled that day. She also said that the parts didn't get ordered and they were not gonna come until that Thursday. I missed work without pay to be waiting for an appointment that never existed. But there was nothing much I could do so I waited. She scheduled me for Tuesday because they didn't show up on the 16th. So I waited on the 23rd. She said the same thing. I even got an email confirmation saying from 8:00 to 12:00. It's 11:40 and he hasn't shown up. So I called back and the rep said the parts didn't arrive. I asked why they didn't give a follow-up call. She said sorry and that they could schedule me in for next Tuesday. She turned around and said that my insurance provider hadn't provided or ordered the parts that were necessary to make the replacement. So here was my dilemma because I waited three weeks. I'm having mosquitoes in my backyard because of the water not working and the water being standstill. Now, it's becoming a little bit of a health issue and I have kids who are allergic to mosquitoes.

    I had very similar issues with my previous insurance provider and that's why I came with American Home Shield. I've made other claims with AHS where it's been phenomenal but with this particular claim, the back and forth has been horrible. I blame 70% of fault to the provider but I also place the other percentage on AHS. I'm contracting this insurance company to help alleviate some of those stressors and I feel like it's caused me more stress and agony.

    We are AHS customers for years and never used it for anything significant before. Recently our HVAC system stopped cooling properly. I paid my copay for technician visit. The repair plan is structured very tricky where some work is defined as modifications and not covered by insurance so we need to pay $2,500 out-of-pocket. Customer service explained me that the maximum amount they gonna pay is around $600 and there is no option to fix HVAC without me paying a lot of out-of-pocket. It’s totally useless to pay years for insurance and when something breaks, you fix it on your own dime.

    We've had American Home Shield since 2011, and the cost of it is getting really high. I feel like we pay so much and we hardly even use it. And then, I’d have to go through so many hoops to get stuff repaired. We’re thinking about going with someone else next year when our contract is up. Our most recent claim was for the front door of our oven that completely failed. Tri County Appliance came out and they were awesome. They fixed the issue in a timely manner. One of the parts was ordered but it was the wrong one, and I didn’t have an issue with that. They were very nice about. And once the part came in, they fixed everything, so everything worked perfectly fine.

    As far as filing a claim with American Home Shield, some of it is a little confusing online. If something specific went wrong with the oven, they might come thinking that the oven doesn’t work. But it wasn’t the oven that doesn’t work, it was the door on the oven that was broken. So, when I called Anne, the lady representative, she was saying that they did not cover it. And I still have to pay the $75 service fee if this person comes. So, I had to call American Home Shield, and I had to stay on the line for so long. They did cover it. They cover any components of the oven. Their site needs to be more specific like a dropdown box. At least they could put other and let us explicitly explain what it is. And then, they could contact us through email and say, “Well, this isn’t covered per your plan.” American Home Shield should be explicit so we know what is covered and what’s not covered.

    We have two AC units, and the upstairs one wasn’t cooling properly while the outdoor unit was making a weird noise. The contractor sent by American Home Shield came the same day, but I had to call twice. The first time, they fixed it but a few days later, it stopped working again. They replaced the motor and it worked, but the new motor caused a fuse to stop working. It was on a Sunday when it broke down, so they didn't come in until Monday. They showed up and five minutes later, they called me and said it was fixed. I haven't had any issues since.

    The air conditioning unit stopped working about a month or so. Since then, I’ve had a couple of glitches. I went out there to take a look at the unit, and it was shaking and vibrating more than what I’m familiar with it doing. But it was still pumping out cool air. American Home Shield answered promptly and took care of my information and my concerns, and so I’m just waiting for a callback from the unit. But so far, everything has been very good with the contractors that came out to do the different repairs as I needed. They were all very good, and very awesome.

    I was getting phone calls and emails saying that I still owed American Home Shield. So I called them and they said that the notes were there and they would make sure the phone calls and emails would stop. But they continued on. I must have made over half a dozen calls, and every time, the person I spoke to saw the notes. They said it would just take some time to get it out of the system for it to stop. But it continued on for several months. And it finally stopped, so I’m not getting any more disturbing phone calls or emails that I’m delinquent. We got it worked out. I would recommend American Home Shield. I’m currently paying for two accounts with them, and I’m trying to talk my mom, my aunt and uncle into signing up with them as well because you never know when something is gonna happen.

    Whenever I have problems, I go to the American Home Shield website and file a claim. The process is pretty quick. Usually, the turnaround time is 24 hours and they call, set up an appointment and the techs come out within that first 24 hours. The techs are always very professional and respectful of the home. If they come through the house, they take their shoes off. I'm happy with AHS coverage too. I've only used them a few times but they've come out, fix the problems and I only pay the service fee. My house is 13 years old now and it's probably time when I start having issues with some of my appliances so I'm glad that I have AHS. I would recommend them to anybody.

    American Home Shield's website is second to none. Then they normally give me 24 hours to wait for contractor's response. I’ve only had one instance on the weekend, where I had to wait until Monday. But all their contractors have been really good. When I had a electrical outlet that wasn’t working, the contractor came out, traced it, and fixed it. He showed me the problem, and I sat there while he fixed it. It’s working as expected ever since. It was a fantastic experience.

    Original Review: July 13, 2019

    My most recent claim experience with AHS was great. But I have had some issues with billing. The initial 49.99 payment to initiate my contract was taken out of my account. And then, AHS took it out again, which in turn, once I put the request in for that vendor to come out and take care of my issue with my air condition, they did a great job.

    For some of the additional work that they had to do that AHS didn't cover, I had to pay them $438. And when I gave them the check, the check was presented to my account and cleared, but I had to pay an overdraft fee because AHS took another 49.99 out of my account when they shouldn't have. So, I called and spoke with several representatives. And from their end, it was not showing the initial 49.99 taken out of my account. And they told me that I had to fax over my bank statements, which I've tried on two different occasions. AHS wouldn't accept emails because I have a PDF of both of my bank statements showing that both charges were taken out of my account so that I can be reimbursed one of the charges. The customer service and reps had been horrible too.

    I have been a member of American Home Shield for 10 years and the first time I need help with my air conditioner, they are making me use a vendor that is stealing $900 from me. I put a claim in and Freedom Heating and Cooling came out and said I would need 12 pounds of Freon at $100 a pound and that I would need to pay $600 for modifications for a total of $1800. Then American Home Shield contacted me with the cost and said I would need 9 pounds of Freon and said they could get the bill down to $1460. Right there, Freedom Heating and Cooling was trying to steal $300 from me. I requested a second opinion, which I paid for, and found out that I also didn't need the $600 of modifications. This was after 22 calls to American Home Shield. After the second vendor said he could fix the problem for $540, I was ecstatic. He reported this to AHS and AHS said they didn't care, I still needed to use the first vendor.

    I am not going to pay an extra $900 for the same service. I have not had air for 6 weeks and I have four Siberian Huskies that have suffered greatly through this including kennel cough because of where I tried to board them. I also have mold growing in the house due to using an attic fan during wet conditions. I have filed a complaint with the BBB and I am still waiting to hear back from them on this issue.

    We have had AHS as our home warranty service going on 6 years. We finally had to cancel the service because all aspects of this service have have consistently gone downhill. The first couple of service calls were taken care of in a timely fashion with competent service companies. The last service request was never done but they billed my credit card immediately for the service charge. After 3 phone calls to AHS to try to get my money back I had to contact Visa to get my credit.

    They also began setting our appointments up with contractors from towns several hours away which made the scheduling not very timely as the companies were not going to be in this area sometimes for several days. We live in the second largest city in Ky. which made me wonder why with all the contractors here in town they were only in contract with small companies out of town. Lastly, I assume their call center was based overseas because the vast majority of representatives and I had trouble communicating which got increasingly frustrating each time I needed assistance. Five years ago I would have rated this company a 5, today 2 stars.

    NOT HAPPY! I have been without AC for a week in Alabama. My repair request was submitted through the appropriate channels a week ago and a repair company was assigned. They came out and repaired one unit and put in the parts request for the other unit to AHS. AHS called me and said that they had approved the repair and that the repair co would be contacting me to set up the repair appt. When we contacted the repair co they said that they had not received anything from AHS. I have contacted AHS multiple times and have spent a long time on the phone trying to get information about the status of my repair. Each time I have called, I have to answer the same questions multiple times, for example - the address, my phone number, who they are talking to, etc, when they have already been given the information and they have my account pulled up on their screen.

    Their representatives also speak broken English and are very difficult to understand. Once I have gone through the details, multiple times, they put me on hold for an extended period of time for "confirmation of details", when they return to the call each time they informed me that the parts have been ordered and that the repair company has been given the approval to repair the unit. When I have asked to speak to a supervisor or manager they refuse to transfer me and end the call.

    After each conversation with AHS we call the repair company to see if they have been contacted by AHS and each they have confirmed that they have not received anything from AHS. I have been an AHS customer for over fourteen years. Most of my limited claims have been handle fairly efficiently, so I am very disappointed and angry to be treated in this manner. I want a straight answer about when my repairs will be completed. I should not have to call every day and waste time on the phone with a call center that does not know what they are doing. AHS I expect a lot better treatment and customer support that I am receiving. Please repair my AC.

    About two hours ago a technician sent by American Home Shield (AHS) left our home after conducting what I observed to be an excellent inspection of a malfunctioning air conditioning unit. The technician, who I will not name as he told me he was afraid of getting in trouble at work, from American Group, viewed the floor air vents, the outside unit, electrical box, and the unit in the basement. I know this should be considered routine for such an inspection, but this was different. He noticed a little dust near the basement "furnace" and suggested that the area be kept dust free, and after removing the filter suggested using a filter that was thicker than the one installed presently in the unit.

    When he returned from working on the outside unit he went through the photos to explain the damage to each part and what would have to be fixed. He told me that the "problems go back a long time." How long I asked? He said about a half a year. We moved in a couple of months ago. The model unit, a Lennox, he described as tough like a bullet, can last up to thirty years. Our unit is not that old but almost. He got the unit going again, not fully functioning, but the noise stopped and some cold air returning but said without the necessary repairs, many, it will make noise and malfunction again. With this he went to his truck to call American Home Shield for authorization of the work.

    Just days before this the first technician sent by AHS conducted his inspection of the unit. My husband was home during this inspection. My husband described the technician as bringing up an "electrical surge from a storm" even before he looked at the unit. My daughter (18 yoa) watched the technician on his phone, facing away from the unit, for a large portion of the time he was outside. While the tech was downstairs he looked at the unit for less than two minutes my husband said. He did not inspect any inside parts of the unit. While he and my husband were downstairs (prior to looking at outside unit), the tech asked which home warranty plan we had, basic or deluxe.

    My husband at that point, noticed a look of disappointment on the tech's face when he said basic. From there the tech went outside to that unit for about twenty-five minutes. The tech then proceeded to show my husband wires he described "were all fried up probably from an electrical storm," which he said home warranty companies log throughout the country "so they can blame the damage from the storms." Surges are not covered under our warranty. The technician then went to his truck to see if AHS would cover the repairs. He returned and told my husband that AHS would be calling to explain everything.

    AHS called and declined authorization of the repairs because there was "an electrical surge" and to file a claim under our homeowners insurance. My husband requested a second evaluation. My husband, noting each technician sent by AHS is from a company that contracts with them, the AHS rep stated that the second tech would not know what the first tech determined.

    The second tech remained in his truck for about 20 minutes. When he came to the door, he seemed a little embarrassed and had a hard time looking me in the eye. He held out his phone to me and asked if I wanted to talk to the authorization lady from AHS, they weren't going to pay for it. He had me on speaker phone and the AHS person identified herself as Kenyada (unknown spelling), said I was being recorded and told me that "the technician said the damage was due to a power surge so it is not covered." I told them the decision to deny was made in bad faith as the technician NEVER once said it was due to a power surge, instead that the damage had been progressively getting worse for at least half a year prior to this.

    Kenyada at one point agrees that the damage had been progressively getting worse then says "and a power surge." I state this denial is in bad faith as based on an inaccurate representation of the tech's conclusion. At this point I tell her that I will be recording her as I will be writing a review and want to be as accurate as possible quoting her. I asked her when did the power surge occur? How long did it last? What storm occurred and where? She did not answer these questions, instead putting me on hold and after about 10-15 minutes the tech said he needed his phone to leave. I gave him his phone back. The call ended. AHS has not called me back.

    I was informed by a professional plumber who installed a water heater (we paid for ourselves, not making a claim) in our new home two months ago, that his company used to contract with a home warranty company until on one job the plumber was on he had to request authorization and, as he had to seek authorization outside the presence of the homeowner, returned to speak with the homeowner. The phone was on speaker as the authorization person authorized only a repair, not a total replacement as the plumber had advised. The plumber had not switched the speaker off and the authorization person proceeded to advise the plumber to just put a band aid on the problem since the warranty was expiring in a couple of weeks.

    The homeowner went ballistic and the home warranty company ended up paying for a new unit. The home warranty company contacted the plumber's company and demanded the plumber be fired. The plumber's company declined to do so as the replacement advised by the plumber was the correct thing to do and the company also declined to work any longer with the home warranty company. To this day, the plumber's company will not work with any home warranty company. In over 26 years that we have owned homes, we have had three home warranties. This is the second time I have used AHS, but this will be the last. I have had several small repairs authorized over the years but nothing substantial. Looking back, even with minor claims, any authorization process was done outside my hearing. I want to reiterate that the tech from American Group was extremely professional and thorough.

    This Company will take care of the small appliances if it cannot be fixed at a percentage... However, when it comes to major work like A/C or furnace. They won’t pay for anything over just what needs fixing. Our A/C system went out at a cost of 10K and they only paid 25% of the cost of a 500 dollar coil and pan. They suck you in w/ advertising and then leave you high and dry. They make their money on the service call fee by fixing only one thing at a time on any major item and then waiting for a another thing to break so then can charge another service fee.

    We started experiencing warm air blowing out of our upstairs air conditioner and called AHS for service. They sent out Central Air Conditioning and Heating who told us there was no issue despite leaking from the system in the attic and ice on the air conditioning coils. So we had to call a second time and have another person from this company come out who found an issue with the condenser and changed it but the problem persisted. We called an outside company to perform annual maintenance on our two air conditioners and he showed us where our upstairs unit was not getting enough power and confirmed that is was still leaking extensively. Again we contacted AHS who sent out their contractor once more who confirmed that the unit was not functioning correctly and stated that he could not fix it but would not report that to AHS. Upon contacting AHS they gave us the run around about checking into it and getting back to us but never did.

    A week later we contacted AHS again and when the agent again stated he would look into and get back to us we requested to speak to a supervisor and were told they were experiencing a large volume of calls so it would not be possible. We asked for the supervisor to call us back and the agent stated he would “try” to inform him of the request. Meanwhile Central Air Conditioning and Heating will not return our calls nor as we are being told will they respond to AHS. With all this you would think they would contract with a reputable company or get us someone to come out who can accurately diagnose the issue but NO they get the worst of the worst who have horrible reviews across every platform.

    American Home Shield is working great for me so far. I don’t know what I would’ve done without it here in the last three weeks. I’m waiting on the air conditioner man to come right now. And I'm also still waiting for our plumbing issue to be taken care of. We have had company for the last three days and one of the flooring men is coming tonight to look at my bathroom floor to see if the floor has been messed up from the plumbing leak. The plumbing gentleman did a Seal Fix, and he left. And about four hours later, we had all been outside, came in, and we heard water leaking, and it was flooding at the back where he’d been. And I had just put in new wood floors back there. It was the 3rd of July and he did come back, but he didn’t get to come back until the 5th. We had turned off the water, stopped up the water, put pans on the floor and all that kind of stuff as best we could.

    But he came back and he put a new toilet on completely. He said there was a crack that he had missed the first time. Other than that, he was good. He was very apologetic. And he said, “It’s just something that I thought I had it fixed with this new seal. It was the tank seal, not the toilet seal itself.” And he was apologetic that he was out of town when we discovered it four hours later after he’d been here, and he came right away Friday morning. He was here by 9 or 10 o’clock to try to rectify the issue. So, that’s been good.

    When I submitted the claim with AHS, I did it by phone. The first phone call was easy. The second phone call was a little bit more difficult because it was checking the status of the claim. And the only thing was I got a man I couldn’t understand, but we finally got through it, and I was trying to make sure he understood that my floor was wet, and that if it ruined my new wood floor, I wanted to know what to do there, and he never could tell me what to do in that situation. Still, I love American Home Shield. I have four grandsons that live with me, and they’re not holy terrors but accidents happen, and we have been blessed with AHS. I appreciate the warranty people very much. It’s well-worth my dollars. And I just recommended it to three different people this month.

    The air conditioner doesn't seem to be cooling quite as good as it was when we first bought the home a year and a half ago. We have a service contract with the HVAC company who told us that there was a leak. My husband called American Home Shield and Comfort First came out. The gentleman came up and said he didn't detect the leak, but he put some Freon in it and said if we have further problems to just call them back within 60 days. But the air conditioner still doesn't feel like it is cooling quite like it was. I'm not completely satisfied yet with my air conditioner, but I was satisfied with the service that we received this far. This was the second time that we've called American Home Shield and we've been pleased so far.

    Thanks for your vote!

    The air conditioner was making weird noises. I filed a claim with American Home Shield online and Ambient Heating came out the following day. The issue ended up being the capacitator. The unit worked for maybe two or three days and then it went out again. I tried to submit the claim online but it only gave me the option for follow-up and if I was gonna do a claim on a different AC, like if I have two ACs. So, I called and American Home Shield helped me set up the next appointment. The same company came back and replaced the same part again and the AC has been working fine ever since.

    I had water dripping from a pipe through the ceiling. I submitted a claim for repair to American Home Shield and found their site to be user-friendly. Their rep told me that their contractor would contact me 14 hours after I submit my claim. Home Service Corporation called me the following day and came out. Their tech couldn't do the job the first time as he had to get some parts. He came back the following week on a Tuesday and repaired the problem. However, there was a discrepancy in the square they cut out in my ceiling. They didn't repair that. I called them and Home Service Corporation's rep said that their techs told my wife they were gonna repair the square as long as he hadn't cut any more drywall.

    However, when called again after 7 days, a lady from Home Service Corporation said that they don't repair that and I would have to call AHS and get somebody else out. She said that the rep whom I spoke to initially didn't say that they would fix the problem. If the first rep had just told me that they wouldn't fix the square, I wouldn’t even call them. But I was initially told that they’ll come out and fix it after seven days. I waited but then I was told something different. Home Service Corporation did quality work and everything is fine now but then if they don't do a service, then they should just say so. Even so, I've already recommended American Home Shield to my sister.
