When I called for my repair, even though it was in the evening, they were able to accommodate with a next-day appointment and the repairman was very knowledgeable and knew what the problem was right away, even having the part to replace in his truck.

Technician came to residence, evaluated situation, and ordered parts. In the process of repair, he discovered another issue, ordered the parts and completed the task in a very timely manner. I am very pleased with American Home Shield.

Service claims are easy to file and easy to check the status of and follow up on. They partner with many local companies to get the work done. As a first time homeowner there are many services that we were unaware of for routine maintenance that pop up as suggested and covered services in monthly and quarterly mailers and updates.

In 2019 I had Choice Home Warranty. and my water heater began leaking the following year. They would not cover it as they only cover the mechanics of the system. I dropped them that day and went with AHS. Six years later and no issues.

Lamar Brooks Nolanville, TX

A/C unit needed repair wanted 1400 dollars for Freon. Unit is 20 yrs old total repair was 1800 dollars. So instead of spending 1800 dollars on a 20 year old unit I bought a new unit. They only offered 1270 dollars for buy back. The offer was only the amount to fix the unit 1270 dollars. As long as I been with AHS and the A/C unit was 20 years old. I fill it should have been more because I replaced the hole unit. AHS benefit's the most. So I think that was unfair to do me that way. A loyal customer for years!!!!

Usually good service except ehff we n I call in for an issue snd im told my problem isn't covered. I had to fight to get half my money back. How am I to know that a plumbing problem is related to tray under shower snd that's not covered? Unfair. You should return money if we make an honest mistake snd pay for help in something we believe to be covered.

Bennie W Johnson Palmetto, GA

Had problems with Home shields the very first time that I used them. I had problems with my refrigerator I call HS they sent technician to look at the problem, tech. took a look at the frig. I was told that they no longer had the tools to fix the frig. But not to worry H. S. would take care of the situation, but when I heard from H. S. customer service I was told that they wouldn't replace the frig. because the tech told them that the frig. had been mistreated. That really sent my blood pressure up. I had paid them for about four years and had not use them for anything big but when I needed help they tried to give me the run around really put a bad taste in my mouth. I feel that I should not have had to get upset like that. They came through when I had to have a washing machine but I stayed on edge thinking that they would not replace it. This year the price has gone up again I can't Afford H. S. I'm on a fixed income .

I can't imagine owning home and NOT having the home warranty. I'm a single woman, and while I'm capable of fixing things myself, I do not have any desire to do these things myself. I've heard others talk about their home warranty and not be too impressed. AHS has always been awesome to deal with. Thank you.

AHS has always responded quickly to my online requests for service. There has always been follow-up communication regarding the assigned contractor and after the work was completed. The only reason I gave a 4-star review was when I tried to submit a service request the last time for my clothes dryer, there was no box for comments to be made. It stated that my contractor may be one who performed virtual evaluations of the appliance. I am totally against virtual evaluation because AHS stuck us with an appliance repair service for our washer about a year ago and it delayed a true service visit. There should be a way to leave comments on the service request sheet.

All service issues were addressed promptly; on one repair of an icemaker, the company elected to replace the unit, rather than repair it. I was not contacted and notified by the company that that action had been taken, I found out when I was contacted by the repair company when they were seeking to close their ticket, which was about a month after the repair investigation.

Thank you for asking, I placed an order for some repairs, Refrigerator, stove top and microwave. The stove top and the microwave are fixed now. Since February 24th, we are still trying to get repairs on our refrigerator. There have been two different contractors and still not working. It's a proven fact AHS does not honor their contract.

Clear-Flow fixed both our faucets that were leaking, as well as the toilet that had broken. However, the toilet still does not always flush properly. It worked while they were here, but now only when it feels like it. Likely not due to anything they did (or didn't do), but was hoping this would be permanently fixed. Overall, they were very competent and respectful.

The response time on my first claim submitted with AHS was excellent.

There is often a lapse of a number of days up to a week or more to receive service. However, service providers are competent and knowledgeable. However, I've noticed that American Home Shield never contacts the homeowner after a service has been provided to ask how that problem was resolved. This strikes me as problematic for the company. How does it know that the service billed to AHS was the service provided to the homeowner? Wondering....

American Home Shield has answers service call in a timely manner; I had no heat when the first winter came. They gave me the usual time to get a technician out, I was making plans to go to my sister's house. I looked out the window and the service truck was in my driveway within two hours. They came diagnosed the problem and my heat was working. I'm sold on AHS and how they take care of their clients.

RC Hilliard, FL

The best thing about AHS is access to an account manager that can assist with questions. I was denied coverage for a sewer ejector pump, as the septic technician gave 3 possible reasons for the failure, ( age of the device, mechanical failure or "heck, maybe even lightning, I can't tell, unless I take it apart". The AHS authorization documented the one reason that is not covered, which is "lightning", as it is "an act of God". No assistance from the resolution team. I am changing home warranty companies because of this.

We were only less than 2 weeks in our home and began having plumbing issues. I wasn't sure if my home warranty was active or not, but I decided to try, and found out it was. It took a couple of weeks to figure out the problem, but it was found and it didn't cost me much. A pricy problem was solved in little time and for less. Thanks American Home Shield!

I have had 3 different refrigerator repair companies come to my house to fix the same problem. The last repair company asked me alot of questions about what was done by the previous repair techs and explained to me what was missing from the previous attempts by the others and what was needed to be successful. Having an offering of repair companies to pick from for your repair would be a great improvement. You could consider the companies and research them before choosing.

In the beginning, when you're buying the plan, they have this long list of things they "cover", giving the impression most things are covered. However, when you call for work to be done, you find, seemingly, a lot of things aren't covered, and all they're really covering are the small maintenance items. I think they should give more clarity about things that are more common that are NOT covered as well in their selling pitch, instead of you finding these things out after they take your monthly charge, your service call charge, and then you having to pay for the parts needed for the work to be complete.

It is very difficult to figure out which number one should call regarding different issues. Once you do call in, more likely than not the person on the other end has a VERY heavy accent that makes it difficult to communicate effectively. Having to repeat ALL of one's info every single time one is transferred is super annoying. Come up with a password or something! Case resolution is incredibly slow, and I've had to call in over and over - spending hours on the phone and having to repeat the now very long saga of my refrigerator (it's been dead over a month now) over and over every time I get a new representative (come on, people, I know there are notes in the account. Take a minute and read them!). I had maybe 3 women who were very helpful - one being Wanda in purchasing, who followed up repeatedly - and unfortunately can't remember the names of the others. The number of screw-ups over the past month have been super frustrating, but it appears that *maybe* it is straightened out now. Previous issues - one with my tub and one with my kitchen faucet - were handled well, but again, just crazy slow how long actual repairs or replacements take. I can't imagine what I would have done if it was more than just me living here without a fridge for over a month. I'm glad I have the insurance, but not super thrilled with having to actually deal with AHS to use it. Not sure I would recommend AHS over another company, mostly due to difficulty in communication and utter lack of urgency.

To whom it may concern: Julia R, who I dealt with was exceptional. If it was not for her I would have canceled AHS policy. I have had AHS for over 5 years now and up until this last incident with my refrigerator had very few issues with the service I have received. The two previous AHS employee were unresponsive and I felt like they did not care about my issues or my concerns. They would email me and if I did not respond right away almost always would attempt to close out my case. Julie on the other hand understood that I could not reply right away or within the same day.

I have had experiences where they have met my expectations on several occasions, but recently I had a very frustrating and negative experience with American Home Shield (AHS). I had an electric tankless water heater that provides hot water to our master bathroom stop functioning. I placed a service request with AHS and they assigned it to Home Choice, the company sent a plumbing technician to troubleshoot and evaluate. Initially the service seemed pretty straight forward, the technician contacted the new manufacturer and was provided troubleshooting guidance, when it was determined that the circuit board on the 16-year-old until was not operating correctly, the manufacturer stated that the part was now obsolete so a replacement unit would be required. When the technician left my home, they had left me with the impression that they would contact AHS so a new unit could be ordered for replacement. I was supposed to receive confirmation and a subsequent appointment for the replacement, no one contacted me, when I looked on the AHS site it identified my service request as being complete. I contacted AHS for an explanation and was informed that Home Choice had stated that the unit not functioning was some how my fault. I was absolutely livid and demanded they send a different company to evaluate. They assigned Hers and His Plumbing, the plumbing technician came evaluated and immediately identified that electric tankless water heater needed to be replaced as a result of normal wear and tear. Once again, I received no communication from anyone, on the AHS site it identified partial approval, so I contacted AHS to inquire what that meant and was informed that they approved the replacement of the water heater but that I would be responsible for $800.00 of out-of-pocket expenses for the plumber because of additional work that was required for the installation. I begrudgingly acquiesced because I needed the water heater replaced. My issue associated with this is the out-of-pocket expenses, the $800 is only the plumber's portion, AHS neglected to mention, even though the plumbing company informed them twice is that an electrician would also be required at an additional expense. These additional expenses are borne from the replacement electric tankless water heater that AHS procured, instead of getting a replacement that would utilize the preexisting (2) 50-amp circuit breakers the new one they purchased required (2) 40-amp circuit breakers; instead of getting a replacement unit where water enters and leaves the unit from the top so the preexisting plumbing could be used, they procured a unit that water enters and exits from the bottom of the unit. Because of their aforementioned decisions I incurred out of pocket expenses in excess of $1,000. AHS should have been responsible for all of these expenses since it is their choice of a replacement water heater that was the reason for all the additional material, labor and charges, a similar equivalent water heater would have negated the need for any additional work.

In the case of my malfunctioning garage door opener, it took four visits for the technician, Omar, (whom I liked) to stop using half- measures, and finally replace the laser motion sensors to effectively solve the basic problem. I sense that he was operating under orders to cut every cost possible, before actually solving the obvious problem. In addition, I received a rather insulting phone call from an AHS representative suggesting that the problem was actually just in my head, and that AHS would no longer pursue the matter. So, my initial impression is that AHS specializes in cutting corners, rather than genuine customer satisfaction.

I don't like the fact you pay ahead of time (before anything is even scheduled) then have to wait weeks for service. Our heating went out (beginning of March) with two small kids and we paid the contracted company for a new unit. We were told that there was a rush on the order. It was being shipped literally from a city 100 miles away. But, today we get a call that it will be another 2 weeks (April 1st) before the unit can be installed. I would have probably called someone to fix it sooner vs feeling stuck because we already paid thousands. Meanwhile, we are heating the house with space heaters that are a huge fire risk. Bad experience with lack of communication this time around.

We've had to use AHS services twice already in the first three months of having the warranty. Their communication was great, the contractors communicated quickly, and they covered the repairs per the terms of the warranty.

Recently had a crawlspace furnace unit go down. Wasn't an emergency, but AHS promptly dispatched a very knowledgeable Sr. Technician who identified and repaired the unit and returned it to service. Our heat was restored. Kudos to the Technician who went out ofhis way to locate the part and go out of his way to get the job done. Great support

They were good to work with and did indeed stand by their word. I had to replace a furnace AND a water heater within a 6 week period! Yikes. I wish they had a system that they retained EXACTLY what units they agreed to cover. The rep said he didn't know and since I am a remote landlord, it made it a bit challenging to understand quality of the units. The water heater pilot light is already faulty so now there's a bit of a "process" to make sure this is a solid unit, and it's proving a bit taxing for the contractor because of the repeated visits.

My experience has only been positive and no way negative. I experienced great communication, assistance of understanding the program, and how the technicians were so professional. I especially appreciated having the date of my service being pushed up earlier. I am so appreciated and grateful for my entire experience. Thank you!
