    One of the plumbers came here. He evaluated the whole water tank. He said that it should be replaced. He said, "I'm going to talk to them and it's up to American Home Shield if they are going to replace it or not." But they haven't called me. This has been over two weeks now.

    On March 1, 2023, I completed a request on the AHS website to have our pool heater looked at, since it wasn't heating our spa. We got told we would hear from someone from Watertight Pool & Spa 24 hours later. On March 2, they scheduled our appointment and said March 6 was the earliest they could come out. On March 6, they came out as scheduled. Being a teacher I was not able to leave school, so I left the gate open for them to asses our heater. We did not hear from the company so I had to call the following day to find out what had been diagnosed. Instead of telling me anything they said to check my email, & that they had already submitted it to AHS.

    When I opened the email it said that they needed to replace the manifold and that it would be $4500+, & that it wasn't covered by AHS. However, when I called Watertight Pool & Spa they said that quote was to replace the entire heater due to the chemical /sediment buildup. Communication with the service provider was very limited, they told me I needed to talk to AHS as to why it wasn't covered. I immediately called AHS on Wednesday, March 8, and the customer service rep said they wouldn't cover it due to chemical build-up and said it is not considered daily wear and tear. We've only been here for almost 3 years and used the heater a couple times each year.

    My mother called AHS on March 10 at 9:58 AM to inquire about adding their pool and spa to their AHS plan & specifically asked if chemical build-up would be covered on a pool and spa heater and was told, yes it would be. She has the entire conversation on recording. So my mother and I phoned AHS on March 13 at 1:18 PM and I got the same customer service rep & she reiterated that chemical build-up was not covered. My mother told her that she had the conversation, about chemical build-up was covered by AHS, on recording and the rep's response was that it was not covered. We then asked for a supervisor, and then got put on hold several times only to get told there wasn't a supervisor available and that one would have to call us back in 24 hours.

    So at this point, we still don't have a resolution and still unhappy with American Home Shield. BEWARE if you buy the optional pool coverage, it probably won't be covered & you are throwing good money away. Growing up our family has used American Home Shield for 25 years, and when I bought my first home it was a no-brainer to go with AHS. However, I am now second-guessing them and considering going with a different home warranty.

    I purchased American Home Shield for an older home I purchased. I had a leak in the roof. Called them for a claim, they could not find a roofer in my area so when they said if I could find someone that was a licensed roofer and insured they would approve the repair. I live in a very remote area and could not find a roofer that was willing to come out for an emergency repair. I had a few general contractors but they did not meet AHS standards. I called AHS and they were not willing to work with me or the contractors. I ended up paying out of my own pocket. Then when I wanted to cancel my policy they charged me $75 for an early cancelation. When signing up for AHS they told me they would find a vendor and ensure the repairs were done. It took over a month, with a leaky roof, of back and forth and I still had to pay out of pocket.

    Rapid Air was wonderful. The AC was not cooling and the techs were on time and were able to pinpoint the problem and correct it. We’ve had coverage with American Home Shield for years and if something breaks down at the apartment, it's covered. I just have to pay $100 for the service call. So, it's very convenient. It’s worth having AHS on the property.

    The faucets were leaking and the commodes were running periodically. One commode would run every now and then and refill the tank, but then another got to where it wouldn't refill the tank when you'd flush it and the water wouldn't refill it. Sirius Plumbing came out and serviced the faucets and the commodes. There was one faucet that started dripping a day or so after the service. Then it got to the point that you couldn't shut the water off. So I had to turn the water off underneath. It was also leaking at the base of the faucet. So instead of just running into the sink, it was also running onto the countertop and then the floor. Sirius came out and put a new cartridge in that faucet handle and it seemed to stop the problem.

    The young man that came out did a good job. He was experienced. But maybe they were being a little bit cautious about trying to conserve materials. In the past or pre-COVID, you would've seen them come out and simply rebuild the faucets and that would have been done. But all in all, the gentleman knew what he was doing and quickly was able to take care of the claim. So they did fine.

    I have come across some companies and not all of them are maintaining the standards and meeting my expectations. But part of my problem is that I relocated from one state to another and I don't have the contacts that I've built up over decades of working with contractors and subcontractors. So the people that I'm relying on now through American Home Shield have to find people who are available to provide the services within the time frame that needs to be done and they're working with a variety of different companies. Some companies are going to be a little bit more professional and qualified than others. But all in all, their contractors were fine and I'm pleased with it. American Home Shield has done a good job. My experience has been positive and I hope that it will continue to be that way.

    My washer wouldn't stop running. I ended up calling AHS on a weekend. It was very quick. The techs were out within a couple of days. They were really nice. They resolved our questions.

    We found water dripping into our garage from the bathroom above it. So, we called American Home Shield for them to send a plumber. I got a text and an email with their information, the name of the company, and the phone number in case they didn't call us, and telling us they'd be calling us within 24 hours. They did. They were great. The tech found the leak and said that he needs to pause and get restoration involved. So, we’re in all that right now. The great part is when it was all dried out, I called them back and said, “Okay. Now you can fix it,” and they were out the next day.

    I had a stoppage in the sink and I didn't manage to open it. I called American Home Shield right away. The tech claimed that we need to change the whole piping system because it was too old. AHS is gonna investigate and they didn't call me back ever. So, I poured Liquid-Plumr on it and it seemed to do the trick. However, the problem is beginning to come back. So, the guy never solved it. I made a second call for the same sink. I don't know if it's a result of the first visit on that, but there was a leak under it. This plumber who came was very good, and he replaced the pipe under the sink. I don't have a problem with the leakage anymore. However, it does seem to begin to get slowed down. That means the stoppage is someplace still there.

    He ran a snake. I was there. I was watching. At one point, he said, “I can’t do it.” He was looking to change the whole pipe. I said, "Well, how much is it? It's not gonna be covered. So if I wanna fix it, how much is it?" It is gonna be between $5,000 to $6,000. So, I sent him on his merry way. I was not impressed at all. As far as American Home Shield, sometimes they send people to work or just get a foot in the door and look for other things to do. I don't appreciate it and I'm not a plumber. I don't know if they're right or wrong. I'm more interested in unplugging my sink.

    When we bought the house, the coverage came with the home protection plan, which happened to be American Shield, and I just kept it going. One call and they send a repairman. I noticed the last few years, their repairmen are not very good. That's very disappointing. I get the impression they come to see what else they can do. They try to upsell. I had an electrician come because the outlet was malfunctioning. The first thing out of his mouth was, "Oh, you are misusing it." I said, "What am I misusing?" The outlet comes with two plugs. I have a microwave and a toaster oven. They've been there for like six years. Lately, they're starting to act up. I never used the two appliances at one time. "Why don't you take a look and see if something is wrong with the plug?" "Well, if you want me to, I will." Nothing was fixed. I had to move my microwave someplace else, which is not very convenient because my kitchen is not that big.

    I would be very hesitant to recommend AHS. You have to be prepared to argue. You have to be prepared to call. I never bothered with the electrician because I know I can't win. If the electrician tells AHS one thing and I tell them something else, then they're gonna tell me, "Well, we can send you another one and see what he thinks, but you're gonna have to pay for it." They come between 8:00 to 12:00 and then from 1:00 to 5:00. I don't want to spend my hours waiting for a repairman and for him to come and scratch his head and not do anything. It's annoying. Replacing an appliance was done with a struggle. It's more like, "Oh, yes. I'm going to get it because I paid for it. And you are going to see it that way." It's always an argument.

    My upstairs heating unit wasn't working. Every time I turned it on, it would smoke and make a buzzing equipment noise. I sent in my claim online and American Home Shield's website is pretty limited in choices. But it serves its purpose. I've talked with a representative numerous times but the claim is still not resolved. Legum's has only come out once because American Home Shield has not authorized them to do any service yet. So the issue is with American Home Shield. I've spoken to six different customer service reps, and I haven't received any clear or consistent responses as to what my next steps are in order to be able to resume my claim. I received a call from someone in claims adjudication but it wasn't a supervisor or anyone that could provide any clarity as to my next steps.

    Our heat went out and we had to get a kerosene heater until we could get AHS to get someone to fix it up. When the techs saw what the problem was, they offered two things. They could repair it and that was the route American Home Shield wanted to go. They repaired it and our heat has been working fine ever since. AHS is a good policy to have. Once you pay the $100 fee, you don't have to worry about taking care of anything. They're either gonna fix or replace.

    I've already had to use the warranty twice. I had the water heater go out and we got it replaced. And then, I had the oven fixed and it cost me $85 to do the repair. So, I was happy with the warranty. It is well worth it. I'll renew it.

    I had a switch go out on the microwave. The techs were very nice and informative. American Home Shield is okay. But it's a little overpriced for what you pay and then what you pay as far as the techs coming. The tech only costs $16 from what the tech told me and I'm paying $125 with AHS plus the monthly payment. Also, I'm always hoping that they don't come up with something to be out of code. When it came to replacing my furnace, it cost me money. AHS didn't cover that because they had to update this and that. Plus they gave me a much smaller furnace. I'd like to see either the copay or the monthly fee down a little bit. Other than that, I like having the security of AHS.

    There was a period of a couple of summers when we were without AC. The same tech continued to try and repair it until he said it was gone. It was a little frustrating because he told us that American Home Shield is only authorizing repairs right now but that the AC was eventually going to go and it did pretty quickly. It should have been replaced earlier. But they have to go through a certain protocol and try and fix every part, which seemed to cost more. Recently, the washing machine wasn't draining properly. Bissett Plumbing came out pretty quickly and although they had to reschedule on me, it wasn't too bad. I've had them come out before so I know the company and they were fine. They fixed the washing machine that day.

    There are certain companies that have a relationship with us. When I call in and American Home Shield sees that I've been a member for so long, I can request certain companies that I've had before and it's nice to have the same company come out for electrical or something like that instead of switching up. Also, with American Home Shield, if you have more than one issue, they only charge you one deductible. That's nice to keep in mind.

    I still am waiting on an open claim with American Home Shield. Tomorrow, the techs are coming to fix it. They had an issue getting the part because the air conditioner was so old. I have had AHS for almost 10 years, and at one time on two different properties and now just one. I don't think I would ever go without having it. On one property, they replaced the air conditioner. They've repaired, over the years, a dishwasher, two different stoves, a refrigerator, a dryer, and this air conditioner. So, there are two air conditioners altogether. It's a big peace of mind, and their service is outstanding.

    I had one issue about five years ago. The heater went out in the home I was living in and the technician said it was because there was too much dust on the coils. I asked American Home Shield to get a second opinion. I paid upfront for the second opinion. Once it was found it was not our fault, that money was refunded back to me and they did the repairs. So, they've done a generally fair process.

    With American Home Shield, I'm able to have access to specific professionals to do specific work fast. All these guys have been great. When I had to get a garage door replaced, they recommended me to the company. That company inspected it and we talked to them and they gave me a nice little price for it. So I got a discount paying for the garage door itself to be installed. I also put in a plumbing claim. The internal piece of the toilet that pulls the plug up and drains the water snapped. I halfway started to fix it and then the first plumber that came out here said there wasn’t anything he could do about it because I fixed it. He said it was not broken so he couldn’t do anything. Then my other toilet did the same thing and broke. This time, I didn’t fix it. They replaced the toilet.

    The only thing I didn't like was that they didn't haul the toilet away for me and the trash didn't pick it up. Now I got to take it to the dump site. But overall, I would recommend American Home Shield. Since I've been a long term customer, I would recommend that they lower the cost instead of raising it for repeat customers. They’re lucky nobody contacted me about a home warranty or else I would have moved to another one.

    The electrical contractors were great guys. They replaced the part of our ceiling fan that had an issue. They were very professional and they knew what they were doing. AHS can take a bite out of some very expensive mishaps or occurrences. They had a little glitch where they were having problems finding contractors and I still haven't gotten my central air unit dialed in all the way. So, I'm hoping they find more contractors in the service area. They're in a shortage and nobody these days want to work.

    I did a claim and the process has been a circus because they would assign someone, and then the company would either not show up on time or they wouldn't call me back quick enough. I was having an emergency in my house. I could only use one bathroom in my house. I was trying to get a plumber out but I couldn't get anyone out. American Home Shield got someone that talked Spanish to come out but couldn't communicate with us. He told them the wrong things, so they denied my claim. I told American Home Shield that I wanted a second opinion, but then make sure they present someone that could talk English. They did that and we ended up getting the issue fixed. So that was good, but it was a hassle. We went without water for two weeks while we were calling back and forth and trying to get them to send someone out to us.

    I had to put another claim in for my roof. I called the vendor that American Home Shield assigned me and they said he would not come out to me because he didn't like all the red tape that American Home Shield had. He said, "I'm not going to jump through hoops to provide a service." I called back American Home Shield and they said, "Well, we can't take your word that that's what he told you. We need to hear it from him." I said, "Well, call him because I just got off the phone with them." It took them two days to confirm that he did not want to do work with them and they finally reassigned me to someone else. Another company called me, but they couldn't see me for a week. I'm still waiting to hear back from them so they can schedule an appointment to come and look at my roof that's leaking.

    American Home Shield should vet the people they're sending to our houses before they send them out. It seemed like they were just looking people up in my area and trying to send them to me without vetting what kind of business they were. I had a couple of companies that came out and were ready to work but American Home Shield wouldn't let me pick a person. It had to be their person. It seemed like they were just calling people out of the phonebook. But if they're going to do that, then why couldn't they just use a person that was right there ready to do the work at my house? That was the frustrating part.

    Someone told me getting a home warranty would take a lot of the stress out of my life and get to have stuff fixed if anything went wrong. But I found that it has been the opposite. While I'm grateful that American Home Shield did finally get someone out there, it's been really stressful trying to get anything done. So I'm good to do my one year with them and then I'll be done with them. I wouldn't ever recommend anyone to use them again.

    For the first few years of using American Home Shield I found their service to be great. In the past year I have had to instances of using a claim and both times hit snags, this most recent being the backbreaker. My heat went out during this winter, putting a claim on with the furnace I was assigned a contractor. The contractor did not have an opening to diagnose the issue for 2 weeks and was also located 3+ hours away. I called to see if we could find a contractor that could come in a shorter time frame. After several days I was told no one could be found, at this point I had to beg to reach out to local companies to come do it before another cold snap came through instead of waiting the 2 weeks. Everything finally got approved and work has been completed. But the final straw is initially after talking with a Stephanie she said reimbursement checks are returned in 10-14 business days.

    Today, when I called to check and see how processing was going on the account I was told by a Jacob that there is no 10-14 day policy but rather a 14-21 day policy. I was told that there is not a way for the customer to check the progression of the reimbursement and even be told if they received my receipt that was sent 10 business days. After this I will be seeing the short time period out on American Home Shield and will be looking for another potential company. Customer service what was once very clear and transparent has recently become outsourced and able to not handle more than a script.

    The dishwasher's door would drop down and fall on my leg. There were also a couple errors that came up on the dishwasher. We submitted a claim with AHS then the tech came out, brought some kind of part, and fixed it. But the door is still having an issue. When you open it, it'll fall and it's like there's nothing there to slowly let it come down. It would just drop and it hit my shin a couple of times. Other than that, AHS has replaced the pool heater and worked on the stove. They've done multiple things and we've been highly satisfied.

    The biggest benefit is not having to worry about what to do when something needs work. I used to travel a lot. So if something went wacky while I was away from home, I could just call American Home Shield, and they would be able to take care of it with my wife at home without me having to worry about it. We had a refrigerator that made a bit of noise. Being slightly a handyman myself, I figured maybe a motor or a fan went out. So, I went online and made a work order. And instantly, I was assigned GE. The tech was a young guy, but he knew what he was doing. And he asked me what I thought the symptoms were and I told him. He pulled off the facing, took the motor out and said, "Yup, that's the problem." He had one in his vehicle. And within 30 minutes of being here, he was done and gone.

    When we first bought the house, the lady that I bought it from was also gave us the refrigerator with it, but the freezer broke and she had a call three times. On that third time, American Home Shield ended up giving her a voucher for $2,700 at Lowe's to get any refrigerator she wanted. So, in turn, she gave it to us and we picked out a brand-new refrigerator. That was my first experience and that was cool.

    I first used AHS for my heater and the person that came out was super awesome. We actually have an appointment on Friday. This will be the third time they come out because they don't have the right thing. But it's good. I called AHS for a plumber and thought that would be a problem at first because I paid my $85, the guy came out, he didn't speak English, did a horrible job, and he said that I needed $5,000 worth of work. It was ridiculous. So, instead of authorizing it, I called AHS and they said that was his professional opinion. I said, "No, he didn't know what he was talking about. You guys need to fix this. He did the same thing I did and I wouldn't have paid $85 to have somebody come to the exact same thing I did." They said, "We can send out a second opinion. But the only thing is, if they have the same result, you have to pay the deductible for the second opinion."

    Second opinion came, fixed our problem. So, I never paid more than that first deductible and they sent somebody else out who was good. I talked to the heater guy about it because he was in there through the process and said that what he found was a lot of low-level construction people. Whatever the company is, we'll make a 30-day contract with them, just trying to get extra business and money. And he said that's probably what that first plumber was. I'm glad AHS sent somebody else to fix it. AHS works good.

    A repairman came to the house and said the claim wasn't covered by the American Home Shield policy because it wasn't a problem. I told him that it was reported to us a couple of different ways that there was no GFCI circuitry in the house. We felt that it's a safety issue. I've always lived in homes where there were GFCI circuitry and sockets that help with safety. He said that the house didn't need to be rewired. They just needed to replace certain plugs with a different type of socket and it was $160 per socket. What threw me a little bit too was he pointed to four or five in the kitchen and normally, they usually do one in each area. They don't do all of them. That seems strange to me. But he seemed to be honest about it. I'm happy with it.

    I noticed that the contractors that American Home Shield sent out didn't want to be there and I would have to call them back because whatever they did didn't work. When I called American Home Shield to get the disposal turned on, the tech that came out broke my sink and made the whole thing worse. I ended up with a flooded kitchen and a completely broken sink. Then he tried to convince me that I did it. I had to tell him to get out of my house immediately because he made me feel uncomfortable. When he was here, I paid by credit card for something separate just with his company. I asked him, "Hey, is that a secure way to pay?" But he chewed me out. He said, "You're overreacting." That was just weird. It was weird too because he was talking to me like we know each other.

    I kept calling the company wanting to speak to the actual person in charge. Initially, they kept blowing me off. Then finally, the young lady called me back. At first, she wasn't friendly. She said, "Oh, well, he said it was like this." But once I explained the entire situation, she was really nice and understanding and helpful. She got it fixed and had somebody scheduled to come out at a later date pretty quickly.

    At first, I really relied on American Home Shield because it made me feel secure and I can just call them and pay a flat fee. But I've been very dissatisfied with them. In 9 out of 10 contractors, it was an unpleasant experience. I've made over six calls for my AC and people came out and tinkered with it. One guy even told me to just pour some bleach in it.

    I had a microwave go out and AHS had to give me another one because they didn't have the parts needed for the one that I had. The technician was great but it was a nightmare from the standpoint of AHS communicating properly. They gave me a grid on what I should order and they wanted me to order it. I ordered what I thought was comparable to what mine looked like but it turned out that it wasn't. They said that I ordered a stovetop and I needed an attached one to go over my stove. So, I canceled it immediately within hours of the situation. But in my canceling, they still sent me the same one that I could not use. I sent it back then we ordered the right one.

    I spent hours and hours on the phone just trying to get them to do the right thing. Then they wanted to charge me 100 and some dollars for restocking when the mistake was found immediately. So, I had to fight for my rights with it. They ended up not charging me for the restock and giving me the right one. But it took weeks and I had to go through that whole process over again.

    Then recently, the door of my oven was smashed into little pieces. I filed a claim and I was perturbed with AHS because I found out that I had a lot of things that were not covered under my policy. Some time ago, I increased my service fee because I wanted to make sure everything in my home was covered. But when I filed the claim for the door, that nice technician who took care of my refrigerator came out and told me that he was going to file the claim. So, we got that filed and the next day, I got a message from American Home Shield saying that the issue was cosmetic and they were not going to cover it. I was incensed. So, I spoke to a nice young lady on the phone and I told her that I felt like I was being taken total advantage of and that I got tired of fighting every time I needed to file a claim.

    I've been having this insurance for years and I'm not one of those ones that have a lot of issues. But all of a sudden, I started having issues, so that's why I pay insurance. Just for them to tell me that my issue wasn't covered. So, I was really ready to let them go. But the girl that I spoke to was very helpful and she told me that they were going to send another technician out here. The only problem there was if the tech found something in our favor, I would have to pay for the visit. But I agreed to it and they took care of it. Another technician came and within a day or so, I heard that my door had been ordered. It was then put in and the servicemen who worked on it were extremely knowledgeable and personable. They are the reasons why I stayed with AHS, even though I'm very dissatisfied with the process and the information that they give out.

    Don't bother working with them. They tell you things are covered and then they aren't. When they say interior electrical covered what they mean is what they consider covered.

I was told ANYTHING interior and electrical and as long as I didn't cause the issue on purpose or maliciously... wrong. Go somewhere else or read the fine print. Because most likely your issue... not covered.

    The AC guy that came out as well was horrible. Then told me I needed a new unit but the warranty puts band-aids on issues so they don't have to pay. And then I told them I didn't want him to come again. So what do they do? Try and send them again. Took me hours on the phone arguing with the warranty people that I didn't want that guy here. All in all the people that you call don't care and are rude and the service people they send out don't care and are mostly rude. I did have one good experience out of the several I had.

    Our furnace wasn't working. A gentleman came out and at one point he said that he didn't know what it was. But whatever he did, he got the furnace to work. But 30 minutes after he left, it stopped working again. The following week we scheduled an appointment for him to come and look at it again because it still was not working and the appointment got rescheduled. The following week, it was scheduled then it got rescheduled. This time, I was proactive and called. We had his phone number. I reached out and said, "We're scheduled tomorrow. So are you gonna come?" He said he was not coming and was very rude.

    I called American Home Shield and requested for a different company to come out. They said they would send someone else. I got a call from a young lady to reschedule and I said, "No, we're already scheduled with someone else." She read the notes out loud and the notes said we had canceled, which was absolute fiction.

    A-US Air came out and the guy right away said it was the thermostat. There were loose wires in the thermostat and he put those together. The furnace started working. But the next day, it stopped working again. Someone is scheduled to come back out again tomorrow. Overall, American Home Shield did a very good job of having someone call me. They escalated it, so a gentleman called me and was very polite. They handled things very professionally.

    We've had American Home Shield for under a year. But previously, we had had them for years and years. Five years back, the washing machine and the microwave broke. We had a trash compactor. We got a letter saying something along the lines that they couldn't insure us anymore. Before that, we never had a problem. We ended up finding someone else and I didn't hear from them for anything except the money was drafted out. The experience that we had had with American Home Shield made me come back.

    My whole family has had American Home Shield for their respective homes. My older brother said he was not renewing American Home Shield and that he didn't want to deal with all that stuff. He doesn't like conflict. I had just gotten off the phone with them and I said, "Yeah, because they're awful." He asked why I don't leave them. I said, "Well, because the experience that I had with the other company was not better. If this wouldn't have happened right now, you wouldn't be telling me that." He said, "I have not had any problems with them either but it was just listening to me on the phone with the gentleman going, 'sir, it's like this and this and that." He was turned off by that.

    I looked at American Home Shield and there was one negative thing that happened. That's why I would still refer them. I don't think it's their fault but their customer service. I called and spoke with someone that was foreign and I did not understand her. She was speaking very rapidly as well and I asked her to please slow down. She kept calling me Ms. Barbara and I would say, "No, no, my name is Rebecca. My contract is the one that's opened, right?" "Yes, Ms. Barbara." That went on for probably 20 times. If American Home Shield is outsourcing somewhere, they do need to make sure that if they're going to be using them in the United States, they can speak English.

    I don't have a problem with people speaking their own language. It was just a matter of, "Can you repeat that?" She would tell me again and I would not understand. At some point she told me "I wanna cry because you don't understand me." But I told her we were going to work through this and that she just needed to slow down. After that, she just kept going on and on about being bad. She apologized. I said, "You don't need to feel bad... It's just me, I just don't understand what you're saying." She then said, "No, I don't understand you either." That was the only negative thing with that experience with customer service.

    With AHS, I can make a call and usually get something fixed in a short period of time without too much hassle. My most recent claim was when Appliance Tech came out. The tech troubleshooted the dryer and found out that the heating element was busted. He had a part in his van and he replaced it, put it back together, cleaned it up for me, and made sure it worked. It was done in one visit and I was pretty surprised. It's a newer machine and I thought the part was gonna take a week or two.

    The customer service depends on the vendor that they're using. But First Choice who came out for the plumbing was very quick. Although, I wasn't happy about the coverage because I'm gonna have to pay over $1,000 to get the bathtub valve fixed. I tried to escalate it and they sent an email that they'd give me 250 to get a different plumber. I don't wanna get a different plumber. I just wanna get everything fixed.

    Also, when you first call in a claim, the automated system asks for the appliance or system that's not working. I say it and it takes the machine a while to understand what I'm saying. The automated system doesn't work very well. Then, when you get a representative, sometimes their English is very hard to understand. Other than those, the warranty gives you peace of mind should something go wrong.

    I was pretty skeptical of home warranties or if I need them or if I should have them. But this last year, I'm really glad I have American Home Shield because I used them three or four times and they came through every time. I'm thankful for them. If I could say one thing that's annoying about filing a claim through American Home Shield is there's not always emergency or soon availability. It's typically a week or two out. Recently, Myers Comfort came out for an air conditioning claim and it was probably the best experience of a claim I've had because they called me right away to schedule an appointment. They said they couldn't come out that day but they came out the next day. I'm the happiest with their availability.

The technician never showed up, and said, "The job was finished" to the company and I was still charged the service fee. I have made multiple attempts to have the technician actually come out, to no avail. The part that upsets me is that I cannot get a refund on the service charge. No one came to my home, no one stepped foot in here, and I am in essence being called a liar and not receiving a refund. I have to wait days in between phone calls with customer service and supervisors from AHS. I simply want my service fee refunded, I don't believe that is unfair, since literally no one came here to even look or repair.

    For our refrigerator claim with AHS, we had six technicians come out here but none of them could get the water running. But they fixed the ice maker. A-Fix Service Inc. sent a young kid out here. He was enthusiastic. He was trying to get it to work. Finally, one day, he installed a heater 'cause the heater was faulty and said, "Give it four days and it'll work." I gave it six days but it still wasn't working. I called AHS and then AHS called them back out here. By the time this guy got back out here in three days, the water was going. So it just needed a little longer than four days. But other than that, it's working. I was really thankful for the guy. I haven't had any problems with AHS. They've always come out. Even if they couldn't fix it, they offered to replace my stovetop. You get your money's worth with AHS.

    Every time I try to use the water dispenser, there was this rattling coming from the rear end of the refrigerator. I thought it had something to do with the filter, so every time that would happen, I would take the filter out and put it back in. I would reset it and the noise would go away for a month. This started about five months ago and that length of time kept shortening then the noise would show up again. When the repairman came out to look at it, he said that the problem doesn't have anything to do with the filter. It has to do with the way the wire line is connected to the refrigerator. He said that it will take a plumber to replace that because they have to shut the water off. So, he said they have to turn the work over to a plumber. He said he could fix it, but because it's something that the insurance wasn't going to cover, it will have to be a plumber that has to take care of it.

    The tech was very kind and efficient. He explained to me everything that needed to be done and what he suggested. So far, the refrigerator has been working fine, it's just that I keep getting this noise from the backside. When the tech figured out what the problem was, he told me to try to use the water dispenser. I had to dispense a little bit of water for it to act up, but he showed me and I could visibly see that this noise was coming from that part that he mentioned that had to do with the waterline coming in.

    Other than that, I've been very pleased with AHS. I liked that they have different different levels on their plans. The higher the plan, the more expensive it but it covers more. In the summer, my water tank quit working. It took almost two weeks to get everything resolved because of trying to work with the plumber. But I got a new water tank put in and all I had to pay was the initial deposit whenever I contacted American Home Shield. Everything else was covered 100%.

    My husband is not a fix-it guy, and a lot of our stuff is so electronic now that one little chip, who knows what it would cost to get it fixed. And on one item, American Home Shield was the best bang for my buck. That's why I bought it, and I have not regretted it. We went to turn on the dryer and the on button was stuck. We tried to reset it with the circuit breaker thing but that did not work. So, we called American Home Shield, a contractor came, and they were wonderful people. They've been here before. The tech was very good. It's his wife who calls and schedules everything. And he comes out, does the work quickly, and leaves everything nice and clean. He had the piece with him, he fixed it, and he was done.

    He also checked the dishwasher because I requested it. The rollers for the tray to move back and forth on the bottom broke off. He checked and said, "If I order these, these are really simple to put on. Is this something your husband can do?" "Yeah, he can do it if you can get them to him." He was going to order them, but we didn't know whether we were getting the right ones or not. So we said, "If you're coming for the dryer, just check the dishwasher." And that's what happened. He ordered the parts, they came in, my husband attached them, and we were fine and dandy on that.

    The tech for my refrigerator thought that because I had sugar and flour in big Ziplocs and had them pushed against the back wall of the refrigerator where the airflow is, that was causing it to continually run and not think it was cold enough. Yet, everything is freezing in the refrigerator. He moved all of that stuff and did some diagnostics. But I went there today and everything is pretty darn cold. Other than that, definitely do AHS. I have nothing but good things to say about them.

    When my range and my washing machine were messed up, I called them in, and the turnaround time was timely. American Home Shield made a judgment call on both of them and they're gonna replace both. I'm glad I have a home warranty, and I haven't shopped other home warranties. I've had American Home Shield for seven years and it's been worth it to me. I'm paying a premium, but in this case, they're replacing my range and my washer. That's a lot of money to come up with at one time.

    I would recommend American Home Shield. They've provided me good service so far. My items have been covered and I haven't had to pay additional costs, which I am very pleased with. Now, they've given me a contract that works well with me. Before, Sears has been working well with American Home Shield for my area. So, I've been satisfied with that.

    We recently put in a new filter in our refrigerator and after we did that, the water and icemaker didn't work. We called American Home Shield, then the repair people came out, looked at it, and said that it needed a part. They ordered the part, came out the next week and put it in. The water and icemaker still didn't work and we called them back to let them know. They came out, looked at it, and said, “Well, it's not the lines within the refrigerator. It's the pressure that's coming out of the wall to the refrigerator. That's where the problem lies.”

    I thought I would have to call somebody to come out and look at it, but unbeknownst to me, American Home Shield called a company and they came out the very next day. The tech was quite knowledgeable as far as the refrigerator was concerned. As soon as he looked back there and pulled it out, he said he had to order a part. We figured he had to because this happened to us once before, and when he got the part and put it back in, he said everything was working good. It didn't, but then he came back out the very next day and got it all fixed. The unit is working better because we have more pressure coming out now, and the icemaker is working again, so everything is cool.

    My experience with American Home Shield has been fine, but sometimes, they're very hard to get ahold of. When we found out that the water and icemaker were not working again after the repair people came out, it took me about three days trying to get ahold of American Home Shield. However, they took care of it and that's all I cared about.

    When our garbage disposal was leaking water, we made a claim with American Home Shield, then Sanders Plumbing came out. The gaskets inside the garbage disposal were worn down and it was leaking through the bottom. Sanders Plumbing completely solved our problem. They replaced the garbage disposal and did a great job putting it in and it didn't take them very long. They did a good job. It was very professional and done right.

    I've also had one experience where we made a claim for a plumbing problem that had to do with a leak above our garage. The plumbers that came out of Bryant, Arkansas said it wasn't the pipes leaking. They determined the leak was coming from the shower in the room above, but they were not able to solve that problem. They at least pointed us in the right direction. They suggested that the caulking around the base of the shower needed to be reworked. We did that ourselves, and we think we fixed it, but we haven't had enough people use the shower to see. Hopefully, that helped it.

    Water was coming back up to the toilet but through the flange part, not all the way up through and the shower. It was a clog deep down in the pipes. When we called in the request, it was a Sunday and the repair company couldn't make it out until the following Thursday. The technician came out and fixed the issue the same day. I wasn't there, but my niece was and she said the technician was very nice, knew exactly and was able to find it right away. He was great.

    I've got American Home Shield for two of my houses. For this house, we only had it for a month and a half. My father-in-law had just passed away, and we took over the house. We also had AHS on our other house for over a year. What I like about American Home Shield is any time I had any kind of questions, issues or service, they've always been very responsive. The companies that they've worked with have always been good companies that we've dealt with as well. The techs are always very nice.

    We had an issue a long while ago back with our house. It was during Covid and there were supply chain issues. American Home Shield had trouble finding somebody that was willing to come out. That lasted three weeks, then they escalated it and finally got somebody to come out. I don't think it was their fault, and it was still a good experience once someone finally showed up. I've recommended American Home Shield to co-workers and other people, and I don't recommend just to recommend. I'm honest with people whether they ask or not, and American Home Shield has earned the recommendation.

    In the past couple of years, I've called about a microwave, a dishwasher and now the faucet. It's been generally good with the contractors for small repairs. The silliest one was a microwave. American Home Shield sent a guy out, but he did three service calls to try to fix the microwave. I only paid one fee. It was silly because American Home Shield could have just put a new microwave in for less than the cost of these three service calls, trying different parts.

    I had a nightmare with a major repair. It was our air conditioner. It was a smart system, so nobody in their network had the ability to repair it. They authorized me to find somebody who could. I found a reputable company. They dealt with the company directly, authorized all repairs and authorized me to pay upfront and get reimbursement. But it took me three months of yelling before I got my reimbursement. Soon I recognized that for that major reimbursement, it was a game. I would call, give all the information, but nothing would happen. I'd call back in a couple of weeks and check on it, and they would give me a song and dance and push me around.

    After the fourth time in two months, I lost my mind. I said, "I apologize to you 'cause I know it's not you. But you're trying to deliberately make this difficult for me and pretending that you've never heard this.” I got to start all over. Then magically, it popped up into my account. I was reimbursed. I almost didn't re-up with them after that, but I thought I'd give it one more year. Overall, American Home Shield works as advertised. They react in a timely manner. I will continue with them as long as I get that type of service.

But the market value of what they were giving me wasn't even enough to buy the same washer from their website on their replacement plan. I ordered a new washer, sent them all the documents, but they still have yet to send me a check. I don't understand what's going on. It's very frustrating. In August, our dishwasher broke.

    Having American Home Shield, when something needs to get fixed, you just pick up the phone and you get somebody over. Sometimes, you have problems with who they send. We've had those kinds of problems before. Over 10 years, we’ve probably have about three contractors come out that you can tell really did not want to do the work. I guess they get paid no matter what. One time, we had them come out, and we had problems with air condition. They said there was mold inside of it, and there really wasn't. It was just some algae and they refused to fix it. They came another time. Our range electronics went out, and when the guy pulled the range away from the wall, there was a roach down there on the floor. He said that the range was infested with roaches and they ate the wires. He didn't even open it up and refused to do the work. American Home Shield did send somebody out to fix it after that guy.

    There was another time with the air conditioner. They said we hadn't maintained it, and we had a problem, but American Home shield sent somebody out and fixed it. Overall, I'm glad I have AHS, and I still have it. They've done a lot of work for me over the years, and all in all, I’m happy. I'm glad I have them and I'll keep them.

    I have an American Home Shield Platinum plan. On February 14th 2023, I filed a claim for my water heater. The heater had stopped heating properly and developed a small leak from the bottom port. They dispatched a plumbing company and they responded a few days later. They advised they completed the repair and American Home Shield closed out the ticket. Almost immediately after their repair the small leak became a significant leak. It eventually developed into a leak out of the top and bottom port and the top of the unit. I had to shut off the water to the unit. I reported the continuing problem to American Home Shield a second time. They dispatched the same plumbing company out again. The plumbing company advised the only way to fix the problem was to replace the unit. They advised they would send the paperwork over to American Home Shield to process the claim.

    The next day American Home Shield denied my claim. They stated that the plumber instructed them that there was a pre-existing issue with the water heater. This was clearly false as it was never notated on the first repair. The first repair was accepted and paid by American Home Shield without issue. It was only after the second more costly repair was submitted that they alleged it was a pre-existing issue. Even in the note in the claim on the website it states that the leak was due to normal wear and tear, “the plumber found garage when leaking, due to n/w/t…" This is clearly covered under the contract.

    American Home Shield tries to play innocent and say they can only go by what their plumber says. It appears this plumber gets the vast majority of their business from American Home Shield. They have refused to replace my water heater and want to charge me $1,400 out of pocket. It was reported the first sign of a leak. There was never an issue with the water heater of any kind prior to me reporting it.

    I contacted American Home Shield when we had a slab leak. The kitchen drain that runs to the main line had cracked and the pipe ran in the concrete in our crawl space. The contractor came out and said that the concrete would need to be busted up and they would have to replace the pipe, and it was $2,800. On Saturday, the plumber came out and stated off the bat that it would be two trips because he did not have concrete that day. So he had to replace the pipe, and water was accumulating for days and days. He had us in an uproar. He said, "I'm worried about your foundation. We shouldn't fill this hole back in."

    Long story short, we ended up having a structural engineer come out and $800 later, the engineer told us that our house was just fine. So then we called the plumber back and he texted my wife and said to give him a call so we could get this scheduled. I've reached out to him multiple times, but no one is returning my phone calls. I've been calling American Home Shield but every time I talk to someone, they say that they're taking notes. American Home Shield doesn't know all these things about this contractor, but all they had to do is bring out a bag of concrete and fix the slab. But it's like pulling teeth. I've already paid them. I wish I would have went back and got a second opinion. When we had another plumbing problem, the plumber was fantastic and that was through American Home Shield too.

    I'm very pleased with my service with American Home Shield. I go online, I submit my request, I pay my service fee, and then they send it over to a local repair agent and the repair agent schedules me an appointment. The techs have been very good. Recently, my furnace gave out and stopped working and everything was covered. Also, my hot water heater went out last summer and I had an expensive hot water heater. I got that repaired for less than a quarter of what that hot water heater cost. I will keep AHS as long as I can.

    AHS is one of the better companies that you can call and depend on. And they let you know upfront whether you're covered or not. I called them up for a plumbing that got clogged and they referred it to a local vendor. The reps I talked to were really pleasant and professional about everything. They asked what the problem was and they quoted it. They told me whether I was covered or not, and that they'd have a vendor call me. Then, the techs came out and solved the problem. It took a couple of hours before they had it fixed and I had a good experience with them.

    I submitted a plumbing claim over the phone with AHS and their reps took down the concern. They coordinated to have somebody reach out to me and the turnaround time was less than 24 hours. The tech needed to replace a hose on the toilet. Then with my sink, it had disconnected and I could not fill it. So he unplugged it up and had to rejoin something underneath the sink. He took care of the problems quickly. When the tech was here last time, he put in a whole piece of black hose that sat vertical and he said that it gets filled up with water. He told me that it did and he needed to replace it. So he did. But yesterday, I could still hear the water running.

    My most recent claim was for our clothes dryer. From the time I called American Home Shield to the time I got my dryer repaired, it was less than 24 hours. That was phenomenal. That speedy of a service ever happened to me before. Everybody was professional. The only thing that I concerned myself with was the fact that I've had three work orders with AHS, and every time I paid my deductible, it was a different amount. That made me curious.

    AHS is a valuable service long term. I own several properties and all of them have American Home Shield because, generally speaking, it does the job. I recently had a claim and my experience was really easy and straightforward. I was very happy. I set up a service call and the techs called immediately that day. Then, they showed up the next morning, immediately diagnosed it, came back next day with a part, and installed the part. So everything was unusually quickly done. American Home Shield's systems and escalation process have improved over the years. I've had more serious issues with them before and nearly discontinued service, but that hasn't happened in many years and things have been pretty good lately. Everything really depends on the quality of a contractor. So if I'm lucky with a contractor, they'll do the job quickly. If not, then not.

    My washer broke and my dryer wasn't drying correctly. So, I called American Home Shield and the tech came in. It took him a week, but they were busy, so we waited until he came. He was very polite. He knew everything he had to check and do, and he was very quick. He checked the washer and there was nothing he could do, so he sent the paperwork for them to replace it. The paperwork took just a couple of days, but they got it and I chose my replacement, and the dryer dried correctly when he came in. He checked it and it was fine. But five days later, it stopped trying. So, I called again. AHS called him again. He came and fixed what the dryer did. When they have so much, I have to wait until they have an appointment, but when they come out, they do their job. The last time that I had called for this problem, AHS was quick.

    We noticed we had a couple of leaks. So, iPlumb came out. Based on the time that they had to spend, they fixed the one. Scheduling was difficult at times, just the communication with them. They never showed up. We had to have them come back out again to address the leak behind the shower. They communicated when they were coming. They had to have access to get into the spot in order to fix it. The technician impressed me with his diligence and tenacity in fixing the problem. It was the worst night that we had here. It was raining cold. He had a good attitude about it. He stuck it out.

    Shortly after we moved in, I was unable to open the garage door. It would only go up halfway and it would go back down. A garage door guy came out and fixed it. I pursued American Home Shield about some kind of reimbursement in a situation like that. I talked to three people. I got nowhere. They hung the phone up on me. They would send me to, “Oh, here's our survey.” Click. That was before we started calling for these other problems that we ran into. AHS sent out a person to rekey our locks. That was included in our service. And we've had a plumber and an electrician come out. They were fine. But they didn't want to hear anything about what had happened when we first moved in. So, it was a $600 bill we had to put out for the garage door, in which I wasn't looking for all of that, but some kind of help, because I know that things happen. Our timing was horrible, but nobody could explain to us why we couldn't get coverage that early.

They were the ones that would ignore my texts, and if they would text me back, it was two weeks later, saying that a part was on order, which extended my process for another two weeks.

    I needed some work done on my garage, so I went to the American Home Shield website on my phone and put in a request. I got an appointment the next day or the day after. When the contractor came, he looked at what I needed. He had everything on him, so in 15 minutes, he performed any work he had to do, and helped me set everything back up so that it was all automated through remote control, and made sure everything was fine. He had me sign some paperwork. Everything was 20 minutes. The process was expedited.

    GE Appliances came out, looked at the job that the first people did that left my dryer noisier than it was. When the first people came, they split the rubber that was supposed to be doubled and used it to repair the dryer and didn't use the entire amount that was supposed to go on. When GE came and ordered the part, the part came. The gentleman who did the repair showed me where the first repair did not include the rubber that goes around the drum. He said, "You shouldn't have any more problems now." He turned it on and sure enough, I've had no problems since.

    I kept trying to call the first people back, but couldn't get them back. And when I called American Home Shield, they tried to contact that first provider but they couldn't get through to them. So, the person that I had would continue to try to get through to the first provider. And I said, "It's been over a week and me trying to contact that first provider. After three days, if you can't give me another provider to repair my dryer, I may need to have to contact somebody else and pay all my own, and I will have to get back to you all with making the payment." So, the young lady that I had said, "Since your appliance is a GE, let me contact GE and see if they can fit you in." And that's exactly what they did. My dryer was fixed correctly and I have not had any problems since.

But with replacing my refrigerator, for them to even come to check to see what was wrong with it took over two weeks.

    We saw water on the carpet initially, and then we turned off the faucets and isolated the issue. I was able to dry the carpets and the wall parts really quickly, so there was no damage. Then, I filed the claim with AHS to have it fixed. They assigned Plumbers, Inc. The tech came out but this guy really didn't have any tools to penetrate walls. We turned the water on for them but then he wasn't able to isolate the leak at first. We had to show him. He was gonna write a report and submit it. 10 days passed by, I gave them a call. They said they were gonna call back in a few days but they never did. A couple more weeks passed, so I ended up calling AHS who said on their end, it's all closed. All this time, he had not submitted the report. AHS called the company a couple of times. Then they finally submitted the reports, and it said, “Stress fracture due to soil movement on the drain pipe.” So my claim was denied.

    I requested a second opinion. They offered me the second opinion and said, “We're gonna get somebody out there, and if it's the same thing, you're gonna have to pay another $75.” I said, “Let me see the report first. I don't know what this guy wrote.” They told me it was denied due to soil movement. They said, “Okay. We're gonna send an email for them to send the report to you.” But nothing happened. Finally, I called AHS again and said, "I'm not receiving anything.” By that time, it's been two weeks. Then they told me, “Your seven-day second opinion period has passed.” They didn't tell me that there was a time limit on a second opinion. Since I never got the report, I never initiated that.

    Then we got into big arguments with American Home Shield, saying they first denied me a second opinion. I kept asking, and then they said they were gonna listen to the records and then they would call me back. They never did. Then somebody else called me and they were wondering if I wanted to renew my contract. I said what was going on. They finally said, “Okay. Let me connect you one more time to customer service.”

    I told them I wanted a second opinion and they finally gave it to me. But when the GVS guy came out, he said the same thing. “Yes, this thing cracked, but who knows why?” Then he submitted his report, and then two days later, they approved the thing, and then he came out really quickly and fixed it. Everything is good now. No leakage. But I have a cut in the wall. I don't know if that's covered or not. AHS is really hard to deal with. One time, my fridge stopped working. It wouldn’t cool enough. I called them and the techs de-iced it. Then it took three months to get the ice back again. Same problem. I called them and said, “This is happening the same issue. What can you do?” They said, “You should have called within 30 days.”

    I have always had American Home Shield because of these situations. I never know when I would need them, and hopefully, nothing breaks. But if something does, it’s peace of mind knowing that AHS is there and I could give them a call. I had some breakers tripping. The tech was very professional, thorough and did a great job. I recommend AHS to anybody that I know who is buying a new home.

    We have a blower motor and a furnace that needed to be replaced. It was easy to file to American Home Shield. They got ahold of Redeemed quickly. Redeemed was able to come out and diagnose the problem. And they already scheduled to come replace the furnace. AHS was able to cover it. So, it has been a good experience. There have been previous repairs and they have gone very well. I have cost savings. I would recommend AHS.

    Whenever I do a service request online, American Home Shield quickly gets someone out here to check something out or do it. They would send me a link or would show me right then who my request was assigned to. I get a phone call the next day, if not the same day to know what time. Recently, the ceiling fan compressor went out. The contractor called me the next day and they came in two days. I liked the tech. He was down to earth, straight to the point, let me know what the issue was, took care of it, and went about his way. AHS is quick and reliable for what I need them for.

    The air conditioner wasn't blowing cold air. The guy came out, recognized the problem was one of the switches, and replaced the switch. He explained everything he was doing and what the issue was. He was efficient, too. It took him about 20 minutes and he was done. I then checked the Freon level, added a little bit to it which didn't take much, and that was the end of it. American Home Shield's service has worked the way it's supposed to and I've never had a problem with them. Every once in a while, they'll select some contractor that's got a beat-up pickup trunk and you question whether or not the person has the ability. But that's just part of them selecting contractors and they don't know what that contractor looks like.

    The air conditioner went out and AHS didn't cover it. The manufacturer only has a five-year warranty on the air conditioning unit itself, and the installer failed to register the product, which would give it another five years of warranty. So, American Home Shield gave us a discount, but they didn't pay for it like they should have.

    The outlets went out in one of the bedrooms, and the contractor came in and found the problem. Turned out it was just a loose wire that had never been connected. And I didn't know how it worked for the last six years, but it did. The tech figured it out, opened up the outlet, said “There's the problem,” and fixed it. He also adjusted the GFCI. I had put in a new GFCI, thinking that was the problem. It was connected to the same circuit, and that wasn't the problem, but I connected it wrong. He fixed that for me. He was here for 15 minutes and took off.

    We've had to call American Home Shield for two different things in the past few months, and they've been very good. The first time was a furnace issue, and this last one was for my Samsung refrigerator. The guy got it working right. It was the ice maker. He fixed that, but it quit working again. He came right back out without charging me for that and has ordered me a new ice maker which I'm waiting for.

    I've been very pleased with American Home Shield's promise. They're taking care of things. It's a good idea to have them. It doesn't cost very much per month and they've saved us a lot of money. They pay what you need them to pay. We were with them a while back, and we dropped them because it was ending up that they weren't doing what they said they were gonna do. But now they seem to have reformed. The only thing is after a service man comes out, it isn't uncommon to get a note that says, "I hope I did a good job and you'll be getting a survey to fill out."

It took a while for me to get the work done, which unfortunately was not good for time because it was a water heater. It was five days for me before they got the part and the tech got back out there.

    I've used American Home Shield on two occasions already and they've been awesome. The most recent claim was for the dishwasher. The handle broke and the thing was old and they couldn't get the parts for it anymore. So, that's how we ended up with a new dishwasher. It cost us $200 out of our pocket. The plumber they sent was all right, but I ended up having a leaky faucet underneath the shut-off valve. I had to replace it myself so I wouldn't have a problem. Other than that, they came right down to do the job.

    The only other thing I had just recently was they came and rekeyed our house. They offer that for free if I took the next level up on it. They came on Tuesday. The only problem I had is one key must have been off a little bit. It would unlock the door, but I couldn't turn it the other way to lock it. I had the girl make up six keys and all the other ones work fine. It was just going to be a spare one. I'll just get another one.

    I shopped American Home Shield well. My mother-in-law got the same company. She lives down the street. The end result is AHS had good reputation, but I was concerned because I picked the $67 thing and the $125 thing, and if things didn't break, it's like an insurance thing. I'm paying $67 for nothing. But eventually, stuff happened. AHS did my refrigerator and dishwasher. Would the contractor have the parts in the car? When they came out and saw what they needed, they had no parts to do it. So, they came back and fixed. And the tech was a nice guy too. The ice maker wasn't doing its thing. So, it was a broken part. He fixed it, life was good, done. That worked well.

    The light switches would arc and spark. The first company that AHS sent out scheduled the appointment and said he would be late but he never showed up. He said he was sick, so he had to change the date. We changed the date but he never showed up. When I called back and growled at AHS and said, "This is my second time using you. And the first time was good, the second is not so good. What are you gonna do about it?" They would go ahead and call an electrical company to do its thing. I said, "I don't want to have the same company. Give me a different electricity company for repairs." They said, "Okay."

    I got a thing back and it was the same company that screwed me the first time. So, I was, "That's not good. I'll call back and tell them that I'm not gonna have that company come." AHS brought out another company quickly, which was nice, because my wife was concerned that the house would burn down. She wanted those things fixed. So, we had a guy come and he was a very good older gentleman, nice, and organized. And he fixed everything and we were done.

    I got American Home Shield right when I retired. I just pay the call fee and almost everything else is covered. A-Fix Service came out recently for our dishwasher that was leaking. They called right away, but it took a little time to get them here. The technician was very knowledgeable. He didn't speak English. So, it was hard to communicate with him, but he tried hard, and he fixed it. It's working well now.

    What happens with the warranty is that they lowball everything. When they call and they order service, everything's at the lowest possible price, which I suppose is a good business model but that means then sometimes on the side, they're having to ask for more money to do the repair. So, that happened with our garage door opener. The tech could replace the motor for the price that AHS was offering them, but he couldn't do what he needed to do. So, we had to pay a couple of hundred dollars more to get it to be totally fixed.

    I've been with American Home Shield for 15 years, and they have already done everything that the contract says that they would do. We had a claim on our refrigerator. And the guy came out the next day, repaired it and no additional cost to us except for the service fee. We had him come out on the hot water heater. That was repaired the next day and very pleased with that. They also replaced the dishwasher six months ago.

    They have a service fee that we have to pay, which is about $75. We have to pay that. But all the ones except for the dishwasher, we had to pay an additional $100. We don't have to worry about a big expense if something was to break in the house. It's easier to pay that $75 or $100 than it is to have a big expense when something breaks down. So, I'm pleased with everything. We got other quotes from different companies, but anybody would not do any better than what AHS has done.

They assign it to some vendor, that vendor contacts you, and once you get it going, they're out of the loop until it's closed out. AHS works well for me.

    When my heater broke, I called American Home Shield, and it was easy to get through to them, but it took two days for someone to come out. I have hemiplegic migraines, which are seizures, and my heater was supposed to be fixed right away. Other than that, the guy who came out was really nice and it just took a day to get my heater fixed. With American Home Shield, things get fixed for a reasonable price, and I would tell people to get it. Some of my experiences with them are good.

    I like the online option with American Home Shield of being able to schedule online and seeing immediately who your contractor is. I also like being able to pay it online and you don't have to submit your payment to the contractor. The claim when Veteran Heating came out was great. I called it in on a Sunday and the tech was there by Friday and had the air conditioner fixed that same day. American Home Shield is reliable and helpful, and I've not had any issues that they've refused to cover. Everybody that's been there has typically been very good. There's been a time a couple of years ago that I denied having the contractor back because they were incredibly rude. But I called American Home Shield, and they were very apologetic and said that that person is not gonna be back. And they sent somebody else out.

    My washing machine which is relatively new has a control board that is not working correctly so I have to restart the laundry a number of times sometimes. And AHS is waiting for the part to come in. We're looking at March now and it's been since November. They told me that it should be about eight weeks from a couple of weeks ago, so I'm still looking at another month and a half. It's not the fault of AHS. It's just manufacturing at this point in time.

    My experience with American Home Shield has been good. They've always covered my claims, including air conditioning and a refrigerator issue we had. On the other hand, my experience with this recent repair is no good. I did a claim for an issue with an electrical breaker, and it was not repaired because the electrician said that the breakers had to be replaced. According to the electrician, it was not covered by the warranty, which was a bit of a surprise to me. However, I haven't talked to American Home Shield, and they haven't called me either. It would be great if they followed up with me on the repair, not me following up with them. Still, I had to resolve the issue and replace the breakers. I needed the electricity.

    I make the request from my phone and just process things, and I typically get a call from the representative for scheduling. It’s been a seamless process to schedule something. But I had to make numerous calls that I had to proactively follow up after submitting the claim for the garbage disposal to American Home Shield. But it was primarily as a result of the selected contractor. Having AHS cuts down on having to do a lot of the legwork myself. The deductible rate is 125 and it may not be the best pricing with competitors out there, but I've just had the policy for quite some time.

    I had a plumbing claim and from the date of submission to someone coming out was over two months. I had a tech that didn't show up three times. AHS didn't have enough people and they had no backup to send out. They only had one contractor that was available for over two months and that guy never came out. They have other contractors but for whatever reason, during the two-month period, there was no one else for me to contact and I just had to wait. They gave me an alternative, which is to get my own, but it's a major pain to work with AHS if it's not their contractor. I was not gonna do that because no contractor is gonna spend two hours on the phone for $150.

    The most ridiculous thing I've dealt with is I didn't have a working dishwasher for nine months. We slowly replaced every single piece in it and it still didn't work. had 15 appointments here. AHS said as long as the contractor says they can fix it, they're gonna authorize and I get it, they're not fixers. But they just spent $800 on a thing that doesn't even work now. My frustration was the duration of nine months was a bit excessive.

    But overall, I'm happy with AHS. I find them incredibly reasonable. They've replaced three appliances for me. I've learned how to navigate their approval systems and everything. The contractors are great, but you can also see what tier they're in. Some of them are gonna be like, "Hey, we came out here for a leak and it's not a leak, so we're gonna go." They have every right to do that, but the homeowner gets frustrated. So I just check everything and it's not a problem. I have pool coverage and if I don't know what's wrong with it, I'm gonna check everything.

    Also, I am so grateful that they do chat because I had to wait on the phone for a minimum of 45 minutes. My average was an hour and a half, which is ridiculous. And I really try to understand what people are trying to say, with accents and so on, but I find it's much more time-effective in communicating with them via chat. The chat has cut down things. Another thing is in the last year, a higher caliber of contractors are showing up in my house - not that they weren't capable before. Anyone with a 30+-year-old house or a house bought from a flipper should be under AHS.

    I filed a claim for a drippy faucet through the American Home Shield website. Immediately, 5point Plumbing was assigned. Then I heard from them that afternoon, and somebody came over the next day or two. It was quick. I didn't wait too long for a plumber to come out. He finished the repair that day. He was professional and friendly. As far as AHS, it's a little pricey for the service calls. It was like $60 a call. Now, it's 100 bucks. Luckily, I don't have to call them that often.

    This past summer, I had to use American Home Shield for my air conditioning unit, and that wasn't a great experience. I didn’t really have a lot of options. My AC unit needed to be replaced. So, the technician that came out said, “Well, we could repair it, but it's only gonna be a Band-Aid.” The AC unit was probably as old as the condo, so I decided to replace it. I'm just not happy with the AC unit that they replaced it with. I was unfamiliar with the brand although they're a division of Carrier, which is an AC brand I would have recognized. It's probably the noisiest AC unit I've ever heard. So, I'm pretty pissed off about. When it kicks on, it's noisy. When it's on, it’s noisy. It makes moaning sounds. It doesn't do it all the time. I thought my house was haunted at first because I heard weird sounds that I've never heard before. It turned out when I went outside, it was my AC unit.

    It happened to be right next to my living room wall, and my bedroom is right above my living room, so I hear it from upstairs as well. I'm stuck with it because it was a whole day of these guys doing the installation. I had somebody come and check it out. They didn't find anything wrong with it. So, I don't know if it's the nature of the Bryant air conditioning. That was the only unit offered. I didn't have a lot of options, and I didn't have a lot of time because it was in the middle of summer. It was up to 98 degrees inside my home, so I couldn't be without air conditioning. I was without AC for almost a week, too. It was a long time in that heat.

    Then, when the unit was finally installed, there is a main hose that connects from my exterior wall to the unit. It sticks out a little bit. It's right in a path that goes from the walkway outside my condo to my yard. So, it's not the cleanest installation. I think AHS is hit-and-miss. The plumber who came by and fixed my sink was fine. The air conditioning guys that came by to fixed my unit were friendly and professional. They were just filthy and left a big mess from them going up and down the stairs all day.

    The rep from American Home Shield was good and professional when I called to submit a claim for my refrigerator. The tech who came out was very respectful. He said because of the make of the refrigerator, they couldn't get parts for it like everybody else. They couldn't repair it and the max that AHS would pay for a replacement was $295. I had a choice of going with what they wanted from Lowe's, but I went and picked out something different and paid the difference. Everything has been good with AHS. Every time I submit a call, somebody's out by the next week. But when I call AHS, I get an automated system, and I need to explain in details sometimes. With my bathroom, I had a plumbing issue. There was a problem with the toilet and then, there was a problem with the bath. So, I needed to explain exactly what was the problem on each of the services. That way, they’d be well-informed of what the problems are.

    I had some problems with American Home Shield about a year ago. They double-charged me. They were supposed to have sent someone out to do some service for me and the guy could not do the work because of the type of pipes I got in my basement. So, I had to call AHS to have them send someone back out. The rep told me I would have to put up an additional $75 and I would get it back within two weeks. But it took me almost a year to get it back. I had to keep calling and reminding them. But everything is okay now. The repair guys who came out to repair the pipes in the basement did a good job.

    Last year, AHS sent this plumbing company out to fix my sump pumps in the basement because they had stopped working. When the guy came out and looked at it, he said that I might need a new sump pump. But they didn't explain everything to me and I asked if I could get a battery put on the sump pump in case the electric goes out. I knew AHS wasn't gonna pay for the battery. I understood that but I did not know that they could have still paid to have the new sump pump put in. So, I ended up having to come out of my pocket and pay for the new sum pump along with the battery. I had to get a loan for that because the guy didn't take my Wells Fargo card. I have my ups and downs from American Home Shield. Sometimes, they come through and sometime, they don't. I have to stay on top of it.

    I had to have been satisfied because I wouldn't be with AHS all these years but when I call them, I always remind them that they never called back and asked me how the people who came out were and how the service was. Because if they called me back when I had to put the additional money down on that sump pump, something could have been done right then and there.

    Suppose they send someone out and do the work, and it may be just a little thing that might've cost about $15 for them to do. But they might go back and say they had to do about a $200 job, which is what I don't like. I didn't know anything about a breaker and the guy came out. He went in the laundry room and it cost me $75 just for him to hit the little button. But I don't know what he told AHS. They never called back to see if I was satisfied with the people that they sent out. The repair guy can go back and say they did a big job and they may not have done anything.

I called them and they came right back out the same day I called them. The guy started snaking again and we found a foreign object in the drain.

    Both of the techs were very professional and courteous.

    One of the stove burners stopped working. I made a claim on the website of American Home Shield and it was user-friendly, so I didn't have any issues to submit the request. They assigned the repair company and they contacted me. We then scheduled a time and date, and they called me 15 minutes before arriving at my home, so I had plenty of time to go home and be ready for them to arrive. When they arrived, they fixed the issue very fast. They had very good customer service and expertise on what they were doing.

    I also had issues with the refrigerator, the range, and the microwave. I started a claim with AHS, then the techs came and they fixed the range and the microwave. They also tried to fix the refrigerator but in the end, American Home Shield gave me money to buy a new refrigerator because the old one was very old, so there weren't parts available anymore. I'd recommend AHS and I would like to continue with the coverage because it's cheaper to pay a copay than pay a technician to come and fix things or give maintenance to my air conditioning. Every time that they stop by to give maintenance to the air conditioning or to check what is wrong with it, they charge you at least 80 per hour. So just with the copay that I had of 75, even though they take longer, I don't worry about it.

I finally did something about it which was to have the contractor find another way to plug it in. It turned out there was a plug behind the pump, and it was a working one.
