It is very irritating how they go up on my plan every year, when, for example, I only used my plan once last year... And they didn't go up a few dollars - AHS went up $50. AHS only cares about AHS - their customers are an afterthought.

Contractor showed up and fixed the problem in a timely fashion in this case. However my hot water heater replacement in 2020 was horrible. A loophole in the wording of the contract resulted in a $500 charge that was bordering on criminal. AHS response to my complaint was totally unsatisfactory.

My AC has been broken for 2 weeks and I cannot get anywhere with American Home Shield. When they finally assigned a contractor after 12 days, the contractor gave us a different diagnosis than they gave AHS and now won't call us back to correct it. I am no closer to resolving 2 weeks into me reporting it. I will not be renewing and will never recommend AHS.

VERY slow to respond to contractors when something is broken. Was without water in a bathroom for 2 months. Could not get anybody located in the United States to help in the least. It's like they wanted me to give up and pay for it all myself. I pay $6( a month and $125 per call and feel like I should get better customer service.

The assigned contractor is not doing a complete and through job. They seem to be doing as less a possible, to evade around the issue. Just a quick check, or excuse, then leave with a half job or completely nothing done. Still not satisfied after contractor leaves.

Have a water heater issue and AHS couldn't help me stated was warranty issue and I would have to call them to getting it resolved. At first an agent told my wife the work order been approved and they're sending some one out. A repairman came out looked at it and said they'll have to get an approval from the office and we'll be back to replace the heater. Never showed back and I call multiple times to them and no answer and also to AHS and several agents tell me it was an warranty issue and there's nothing they could do. So I paid $100 service call and didn't get any work done.

This is for Dispatch ID: 124550258 with American Home Shield. As an American Home Shield subscriber of seven years, I will *not* be renewing my own Subscription next month (July 2022) without my Air Conditioning in my home being fixed at zero out-of-pocket for my family and me. American Home Shield has been less-than-willing to discuss options against a Contractor's proposed services, and we've been without Air Conditioning in our home in Eastern Texas during this incredibly hot summer of 2022 for nearly four weeks at the point of my leaving this Review.

I had a Electrical box that stopped working & it cost me $600 to get it repaired. Per my contract electrical problem are covered after paying the $100fee to have a person come out & replace the defective part. But AHS refused to cover any of the cost because they say it was part of another well pump failure. AHS is lying. I will post bad reviews for them on Yelp, Google, BBB, Facebook, Snapchat, Twitter, Tick Tock & tell all my friends & I'm a member of 3 large organizations how dishonest AHS is. I have been a client with AHS over 20 years with 3 different homes.

My Air conditioner has been out of service since I called them on June 7th. This company that American Home Shield sent to my home stated that I was missing a Bypass. I spoke to someone at the manufacturer Lennox they informed me that that part would really freeze my AC up. And my AC was already freezing up. That let me know that the company AHS sent to my home.

We put in a service request. The assigned contractor did not fix the issue and when they reassigned them to come out again they never reached out. AHS has refused to reassign a different contractor even though the original one has been unresponsive. It's been 3 weeks of us calling about our issue and it's still not resolved. We just keep getting told each time that they'll reach back out in 24 hrs and no one follows up. We've called at least 7-9 times and they've told us they'll reassign a contractor and still haven't. Meanwhile our issue is still not resolved.
