AHS respnded promptly to each service request with qualified service providers. However, the contract doesn't cover all repairs so I sek other companies.

They have great coverage options. Getting someone out to do a service call takes longer than it should( more than two weeks on several different problems).

AHS apparently has changed their operations. Contractors now have to get parts from AHS instead of getting them themselves. This has resulted in my having to wait two months to get my pool heater and washer repaired. Fortunately my last service request didn't require parts and was done promptly.

Because you don't give your clients an appropriate amount of money to replace their appliances. Plus you lock them into going to the most expensive places to purchase the replacement appliance. It seems if your gonna be replace an appliance for a small amount of money you should allow your clients to shop around for the best price then. Now we are in a large amount of debt because the amount you gave us did not cover the cost of a new refrigerator and left us in debt for $800 dollars just for a similar refrigerator.

I was given a replacement for a dryer and when it was delivered to my home it was the wrong one so the company delivering it took the dryer back. It's been 3 weeks and I can't get my correct replacement. When I call the tell me that it has to be passed to a supervisor and then they don't call back. r

Still being charged for a house that was canceled several years ago. When called home shield said they would refund. They never did and I'm still being charged for that coverage and the current coverage on my current house. I have been double billed for about four years. I have email records etc. was told not to cancel the old house until resolved because I would lose coverage on my current house as well.

The central Air conditioning contractor was assigned on 9/7/22 and still hasn't responded when they were going to come out. This is the 4'th time in a row they've been called out and not once have they opened up the lower inside panel to see why the drip pan is overflowing and spilling all over the carpet.

Instead of replacing my dishwasher they kept sending people out to fix it. It would have been cheaper to replace it. I still have a dishwasher that doesn't work correctly but I gave up on AHS's ability to truly fix it.

I've been sent 3 different companies to fix my air. Each company was not qualified to repair my unit. Dispatch did not use information given to representatives to get a qualified company to service my unit. I spoke to a supervisor yesterday but must wait an additional 24-48 hours for a response. I have been without air conditioning since Sept. 9.

Very disappointed with how long it took for them to get a hold of a contractor. Our AC is been out for almost 2 weeks, they took 5 days to geta hold of someone, this is very irresponsible since we pay our due every month with out fail. We are thinking of going w a different company if they don't get better

Waited 2 months for a replacement dryer. I filed BBB complaint after NO access to manager despite repeated requests. AHS sent 3 repairman every 2-3 weeks to try to repair the same 'dangerous machine that smells of smoke'. Each time a week more of waiting on parts. I lost work time repeatedly calling, emailing and awaiting servicemen.

My hot water heater started leaking badly. I called AHS immediately and was advised it would take 10 days to fix it. The leak continued damaging my garage. I called AHS again and they recognized that they were the cause of the delay, but still would not pay to have my garage fixed. Unbelievable. So despite them causing the damage by their delay? I had to come out of pocket to fix the damage. I felt like AHS has stolen from me. I called several times but just got the run around from operators on the phone that barely spoke English and did seem to understand me. So frustrating.

It takes forever to replace things, and you pick out bad reviewed venders. You charge way too much from us too, almost as much as just paying from our pocket. I don't understand and you guys pick out the cheapest things. I just think you care nothing about home owners but only care about making money off of us. This is the worst experience I've had with home warranty company and I can't wait for our contract to be over to be honest. I really wanted to like AHS, so I'm extremely disappointed. We have been waiting for our cash out pay check for a few months now. Please give us back our money.

I paid for pool plumbing and heating coverage and was declined service when I needed it. Was advised Solar was not included however this was not listed in the contract while they have specifically outlined items not included. to me, this is breach of contract and AHS will look for any option to get out of providing coverage. I did get service on two other items this year, but they cost far less than the total I paid AHS,
