Stephanie Enfield Plano, TX

I'm an furious with the service I've received since switching. I called about an issue and was ignored by first technician about what the issue was and it got pushed off to a plumber. He did what he could but as I stated when initially made a request for service the actual air conditioning unit was leaking. That was not addressed. Here I am weeks later and the unit is still leaking. My one year old floors have been exposed to water for weeks and will probably mold and buckle.

They never return your call when they say they will call you back. When you complain about a contract they do nothing about it. When responding to how did their service contractor do they do nothing about it nor do they even both to contact you. Very poor service from service contractor.

They don't answer questions that you ask as far as the repairs go. It's like I'm paying y'all for service that I end up footing the hold bill. I even ask to terminate my contract and still was brushed off. So you tell me what you would do?

I Had a AC /heater circulation problem that needed repairing. American home shield sent 2 different companies to diagnose the problem. Neither company could diagnose the problem correctly. One company thought they could change the duct work as a parch fix. AHS classified that as a structural change and my heater never got fixed. And american home shid charged me 2 ti.es for a job that was never done.

The monthly cost and the deductible have continued to increase. I'm about to decide it would be better and cheaper to put the monthly payment in savings instead of giving it to AHS, then paying for repairs myself. The problem is Ive paid AHS so much already that I'm not sure whether I should continue to pay to try to get my $ back down the road.

I have had a very poor experience. I was almost a month without air conditioning in the middle of Florida summer. The response from the company was to have me pay to remove a condenser installed in 2006 in order to fix it as the out of pocket expenses would have exceeded $1800. This makes absolutely no sense. I would have gladly paid the crane fees to install a new condenser.

I have a service contract open for repair to my AC unit and it was denied because stating modifications and construction is not covered under my contract. Now according to the contractor that was sent out they needed to order a part to the existing unit that needs replacing; for the damper. According to my contract dampers are covered. This is a $1600 repair that AHS will not pay. For 6 years like clockwork my monthly fee was collected but when I really need to use the warranty I paid into I was denied. I have to come out of pocket again to pay.

Up until recently, I was very impressed with AHS. We run an Airbnb business from our home and had both our washing machines and one dryer go out. The dryer got handled right away! But it was taking over a week to get anything done with our washer, causing us to lose a lot of business! We finally had to go buy a new washer ourselves. Then when wanting AHS to reimburse us, I was told three weeks after the incident that replacement would have had to come from a licensed contractor. This and $750 later on a new washer had made me very upset!
