Robin Felton, CA

The electrician called/came w/in a couple of days, and did great. However, the plumber, even after two calls by me, never called back. Finally, our Realtor stepped in and the guy came the next day . . . and did a fine job.

Maria Saliba Houston, TX

Because they are denying a claim based on false findings by the technicians. I provided proof that my system was not damaged due to a freeze that occurred 9 months ago and the contractors are claiming the damage occurred due to the freeze because they will not make as much money repairing the manifold under the warranty as they would repairing it outside the AHS warranty. No one has provided proof that my manifold was damaged during the freeze and I have provided ample evidence to the contrary.

Gary Schlager North Las Vegas, NV

The outsourced customer service in whatever country it's in is the worst I have ever experienced. Having someone in the Philippines read off a flow chart isn't customer service. I had a company screw me over your company sent and spent a week trying to get it handled and gave up. Was supposed to get a credit for the service call and never did. I wouldn't recommend AMS to anyone who has a problem and needs customer service. It's the worst I've ever experienced.

Not good customer service, took over 2 weeks to get a service tech to come look at my heater to see why it stopped working. All they would say is they don't have a technician in my area.

I have been waiting over two weeks to receive a diagnosis and a repair on my hot water heater. I have not had hot water and I am very disappointed in this company. They referred someone who came out and stayed at the job was completed and I have come to find out this company is not BBB accredited and has many complaints. I am in awe that American home shield would do business with someone like this.

Representative very rude when answering questions, especailly when they have a complaint about something. Does everything possible to not have the call escalated by insisting Escalation Rep will only tell me what they already have and that it will basically be waste of time to talk to them. Representative will state they will call me back, then they do not call me.

Easy to request service, but most of the service companies they use are pretty terrible...and you can't select which to use. AHS is a master at finding reasons not to cover things. Deductible increases every year. Certain items carry very limited coverage...like ac. If you need a new system that costs $25k, the most they will cover is $1500.

Discrepancies with coverage and items that are "detectable and undectectable". I purchased the platinum plan with AHS to have the best coverage and went with them because they say they cover pre-existing conditions only to find out they do not if it is detectable. Detectable by whom is not specified in my contract.

Horrible service! Contacted them about our roof leaking and they assigned us a contractor. Well contractor didn't show up. After multiple phone calls he finally came out. Was here five minutes. Looked at the roof. Never heard from him again. Said they couldn't find another contractor. But took our $100. Then our furnace went out. Had Frog Pro come out. Guy was here five minutes. Moved some wires got it to kick on and left. They won't return our calls either! American Home Shield won't help us! So we've paid almost $70 a month for nothing! We plan to sue! Don't recommend.

They will ultimately abide by warranty terms but you sometimes have to escalate to get it done. And depending on the repair, it takes time, more time than calling a repair guy and getting it fixed.

We felt that the people we spoke to from AHS were pushing, hard, for us to take a payout rather than take the fix on our AC. Additionally, the timelines continued to be pushed back, with "are you sure you wouldn't rather take the payout?" And, email interactions seems borderline rude. Speaking to the AC company here in town directly got the problem solved 10+ days before the last "estimate" from AHS.
