I have been dealing with AHS for 2 weeks now in an attempt to get my air conditioner back online and have been given little assistance from AHS. I initially had an AHS approved technician come out and was charged a fee as outlined in the contract. I should note that the company I selected was not the default company due to terrible reviews and personal experience with that default company. He provided me with a detailed diagnosis of the issue which centered around a compressor that had gone out. He assured me that it should not a problem to submit the authorization to AHS and that parts and labor should be able to be completed the following week. After the weekend, I received a call from AHS notifying me that they were sending out another technician free of charge from a different AHS approved provider, the one I specifically opted not to use, for a second opinion. I was not pleased about the delay, but was understanding to the point that I needed to have my A/C repaired. Summer in Las Vegas is very intense and with children and pets, air conditioning is essential.
After numerous phone calls to and none from AHS regarding authorization approval and status; the call center was of very very little assistance and was apologetic regarding their inability to provide any level of productive or useful information. After an extensive runaround and multiple phone numbers, I was told that they considered my situation to be preexisting and that I needed to pay $2000 to have my compressor fixed, (this does not cover the cost of the Freon past the $10 a pound allowance...Freon is $35-$45 a pound). I was told that if I went with another vendor or attempted to do any maintenance actions on my own they would no longer cover my air conditioner unit. I was told the issue should have been identified during my home inspection at the time of purchase, however I have been in the home for nearly 3 years and there were not issues noted at the time of purchase. All in all, I am extremely disappointed with the entire situation and my family and I are stuck in the middle of summer in the desert attempting to get some relief from the heat and utilize the service I am paying from my AHS home warranty.
Buyer beware...I have had an AHS warranty at a previous home and was pleased at the level of service and support I received. I made a conscious effort to switch back to AHS base on past experience...I am now regretting this decision.

First let me say, I've been a customer of AHS since 2008. My air conditioner was not cooling. I called for a service representative on 7/3. The company that was assigned to me was not able to come out until 7/9. AHS sent out a service representative. The representative came bright and early 7/9 and immediately stated that the motor was broken. I watched him as he talked with his company to let them know what the diagnosis was. He stated that it would take a couple of days to get the parts. And they would come back out to repair. I called the heating and air company for status on 7/10. The customer representative promised to call back that evening. However, she did not. So I repeated calls to the heating and air company the morning and afternoon of 7/11. No one answered. Again I left messages. Since I have a long history with AHS, I know how things can drag out. So I called AHS for assistance to determine true status.
This is where it gets frustrating. The call center is oversees. I called to see if I could get a status report. The first representative read what was in the system and said that the notes had not been updated and therefore, she would ask that they update them to provide a diagnosis. I told her that I already knew the diagnosis. I needed to know if they had ordered the parts for the air conditioner. That way I could determine approximately when they could come back to service me. She then hung up in my face.
I called again. I immediately asked to speak with a supervisor.
However, the customer service representative (Aileen) was insistent on trying to address the problem. Her resolution was to call the company ( I had already done the twice) and leave a message. I told her I'd done that. She said that if I don't hear from them today then call back for escalation. I told her why not escalate now. By doing what she suggested only prolonged the time of getting my repair done which would leave me without air conditioning longer. She then switched me to Ellen, who she said was her supervisor. She basically repeated what Aileen said. I again emphasized that I thought we should escalate now so that I could determine if they are even able to get the part. She then told me that it could take up to 10 days to get the part!!!! She said this without verification. By then I was totally irate. I said I needed to talk with her supervisor. She said to hold on and she would contact a supervisor. I have been holding on for approximately 40 minutes now. She has not come back on the phone to let me know the status of contacting her manager. We are no closer to resolving the problem than with the calls I made on my own. TOTALLY INEFFECTIVE CUSTOMER SERVICE.
Roger finally came to the phone to address the concern after waiting for almost an hour. He promised to contact the contractor and contact me by 9AM tomorrow morning. I told him that I can not be without a unit for a long length of time ( A previous repair took over a month to fix). So its imperative to give me an update to see if I need to go a different direction.
When they had customer service reps in the states I could get better information in a timely manner. It may have taken longer than you liked. But you knew the status. This group has no clue!!

Edited 6-24-19 ....added to end.
TERRIBLE. Delay and inconvenience tactics. I have had work orders for my clothes dryer since FEBRUARY. GE service tech is here AGAIN for 8th time. Taking dryer apart AGAIN.
8 times we have stayed home and waited on AHS to have a repairman out to bandaid the issue and as soon as they leave the SAME THING HAPPENS. misleading and shady business.
Last time I was told they would send GE back to fill out replace request paperwork. Guy is here and he says he is being told to take it apart again to see if he can figure it out again. Changed a belt this time. Delay delay delay. Even said he is only able to change out parts he is authorized to do so. A nickel at a time.
Joke and farce of a company. They take your premiums and do whatever they can to delay and inconvenience you so you will not want to utilize the warranty that you pay for every single month.
If you have countless hours and/days to waste and wait at home and miss work to wait on a repairman to not fix your problem then by all means waste your money on an American Home Shield Warranty.
I now believe they are dragging this out until the end of my contract period and then they will not have a renewal and will not fulfill their obligations. Next stop a lawyer for me?
Edited 6-24-19 to not change my rating much except to say that finally, after over 3 months of back and forth, take time off work to sit and wait one one tech visit after another and many hours of hold time on the phone, AHS FINALLY decided it made sense to replace my dryer. The replacement process and the team that did that was stellar. Up to that point.....terrible experience and it makes it very hard to trust this company. Gave them an upgrade to a 2 star since they did finally replace my dryer.

I would concur with many reviews left by others here. RUN, do not walk, from this company. Their customer service is ABSOLUTELY AWFUL and there is no one designated to speak with customers about concerns or poor experiences.
My husband and I have been a customer of AHS for a little less than a year and cannot wait to cancel our contract with them on both our rental property and our primary residence. Our last home warranty was through One Guard, which was pretty good, but not great, so we thought we’d try AHS.
First, the good. If you have a basic service request that does not require any troubleshooting, AHS's automated process is very easy to use. Also, the contractor sent by AHS was professional, knowledgable and did a good job diagnosing the problem.
Now, if you have even one simple question about your service request, do not expect an answer. Their call center is (apparently) not located in the United States so it’s extremely difficult to have a conversation with any of the customer service representatives. When inquiring about the status of a service order, the representatives simply recite the policy or contract language from a script. For example, we had an HVAC technician come out to look into our broken AC unit last week. He confirmed that a new compressor will need to be ordered. Now, we live in Phoenix, AZ where it’s regularly over 100 degrees in the summer. As such, having air conditioned home is pretty important. When I called AHS’s customer service line to ask if the part had been ordered, the representative’s response was barely understandable. After asking numerous clarifying questions, I finally got an answer “it can take 5 business days for an order”. I’m not really sure what that means about the status of MY order. Needless to say, this is extremely frustrating. I have had similar to past experiences when asking questions related to AHS’s service where the representative simply recites the contract language. Ugh, never mind.
On that note, our last home warranty company pays for a hotel stay if your AC goes out. That’s a good provision because it gives them incentive to fix your issue faster. AHS by comparison - or so I am told by the rep - does NOT cover a hotel stay in the case of a broken HVAC system.
I tried to submit my feedback on their website under the “Contact Us” then the “Leave Feedback” section. However, clicking on that literally takes you nowhere. It seems this company really doesn’t care about the customer service experience. I then called the customer service line to see what happened if I submitted my feedback that way. It took nearly half an hour to do that and I’m not really sure if the representative understood my concerns. Complete waste of time.

The Coverage is actually very god, but, communicating with them is AWFUL!!!! They don't have enough employees to answer their phone, so expect to be on hold for HOURS! Their website "chat" option? Good luck with that. It doesn't work and even if it did, it is rarely available. Send them an email and they will get back to you, right? Fuhgeddaboudit! There isn't one. they claimed I owed them $200 (2 - separate $100 service call charges). I didn't, both were recalls (Ill get to that next), BUT I couldn't even address it unless I was willing to sit on the phone for over an hour.
IF they would improve their systems and make it easy for their customers to reach them, id give them a 4 or 5 star rating, but this issue is so bad I fired them 2 weeks ago.
Come on American Home Shield...FIX THIS!!!

As a customer for over 12 years, thinking one day it would be worth it, I've learned you may recoup your premium some years, but that's about it. I would only recommend for small things like plumbing stoppages, but better to save your money. For example, to replace a hot water heater, covered in the contract, one of the plumbers they sent out quoted an additional $400 to "bring up to code" and another they sent wanted ~$750...this is out of pocket (not paid by AHS) and it's not optional. I called plumbers independently and they said, in short, these extra expenses weren't necessary. The cash out option offered by AHS was $399. So, the stress, the run around and non-covered parts of their "covered service" isn't worth it. I've given them a really fair chance.

We've had the service for about 6 years, during which time we've had 5 calls, 2 A/C, 2 refrigerator and the last a failed water heater. The first 4 were handled wonderfully and this last one, also the most costly, beyond terrible. The tech looked at our drooling water heater and said our OUT OF POCKET would be between $500 and $1,000. Sure enough, after contacting AHS, the contractor (Prime Plumbing) came back with a quote of $850 to replace our water heater BUT they GAVE me a $350 discount bringing the OOP down to $500! Woo Hoo! The amazing thing was that 4 out of the 5 items on the quote were what I'd expect to be part of a normal replacement: Disconnect / Reconnect gas, water and exhaust. They also had a number of $150 to install a new relief valve, a $13 items that screws into the side of the heater. One of 2 things is going on here: 1) either AHS is underpaying the plumbers so badly that they need to scam the customer to get their money, or 2) they're being fairly compensated and STILL find it necessary to scam the customer to make MORE money. OBTW, when I emailed them back for clarification, Prime marked the job as complete!
Either way, I"m done.

Honest review, not one filtered on the AHS website. Read the very fine print in this warranty - there are so many exclusions had I known before closing I would have shopped around. Some of the contractors they send will lie about work performed to make themselves look good to AHS, but you will still have a problem and/or and exclusion. It makes me very angry that they take advantage of consumers. This issue was a plumbing stoppage at 35 feet from the drain, which the technician told them he snaked through the toilet to 25 feet (which is not possible, BTW.) This was my only request for service in two years and I was definitely taken advantage of -- I've paid $1,400 over two years to be denied over a trivial fine print issue. Now had the contractor brought the right equipment, that extra 10 feet wouldn't have been an issue to begin with. With my service call I have actually paid $1,475 and NO SERVICE. Buyer Beware!

When u need our business u r very polite. But when we go for a claim , look at the way customer service behave. And the contractor you send us they think they r the best and their word is final. I had called for light fixture and the contractor wrote in the report that the whole house was flooded and that he will not touch any thing much less he knew the next day the contract plumber came and he did not find any thing wrong with the plumbing and there was no water leaking, and this was a home shield contractor . This electric contractor was very rude and very unprofessional. He was in a rush to go some where else and suggested he could come on the side and do the job. Very unprofessional. I have been with home shield for 15 years.

Have had AHS now for 3 years. Generally, technicians are sent out quickly and repair is done. HOWEVER, be aware that their contractors are not tops in their individual fields. You may have to have more than one or even two contractors come out to actually get your problem fixed. I am currently on my third repair person and fifth visit trying to get a refrigerator fixed!!
Additionally, AHS is now outsourcing their calls. This has resulted in ridiculously long wait periods, but making it worse is that the phone operators know only how to follow their script. Heaven help you if you have an issue as I have and wish to speak to a supervisor. The pat answer is always..."the supervisor is busy helping other customers. they will call you back in one hour." Of course you never get a call back.
Customer service has suffered horribly due to the outsourcing and I will not be renewing my contract.

I called America home Shield a week ago about a some sink and toilet repair, they gave me a contract number, and said they would have a plumber contact me, affordable Leak detection was the name of the plumbing company, their Clerk called me to schedule an appointment. She explained to me it would be Monday of the following week before there could get her, I explained to her, that on Monday I had a doctors Appointment and if she had any openings on Tuesday. She said yes and was suppose to put me on the schedule for Tuesday. On Monday after returning from the Doctor, it was a note on my door that they had come on Monday, I called them and told the clerk, it was a mistake, and they were not suppose to be here until Tuesday, she immediately told me I had to reschedule for Wednesday and I told her okay, and gave me a time frame been 10-2pm . On Wednesday around 11:00 the plumber called to say he was on his way, and in a very rude way told me I would be charged a service call for coming out on Monday, I told him I would need to call America home Shield because they would also be deducting 75.00 from my checking, he then explain that I would not be paying them, that I would be paying affordable Leak detection for a service call. When I tryed to explain to him that, his clerk had made a mistake, and put me down for the wrong day, he added her on the phone. She admitted to me telling her I had a doctors Appointment, but said I told her I would be back in time. I told her She told the available time for Monday was 9-2pm , my Appointment was at 10:30, and it’s just common since, that when you go to the doctor you have no idea how long it will take, so why would Schedule something on top of it. The plumber became even more rude, and said he needed money for the service call on Monday. So I canceled the appointment, after not being able to reason with him. I then called America home Shield back, and told them what was the problem, since they would be taking 75.00 from my account, along with my monthly bill of 64.00. I talk with their representative, and told me she would get back with me in a hour and that was between 12:00-12:30pm, today and I have not received any call back. I have been with America home Shield for years, referred about 40 of my friends and family to it. But it seems, as though every Technician that has come try’s to scheme me out of more, money, 600 dollars one time, only finding out he was lied, about what was needed, one installing a defective part, That lasted 2 months, and charged 75.00 twice, plus monthly fees, once 3 trips on a ice maker before it was fix. And now a service fee to a rude plumber , where there was a human error on part of their clerk. No call back from America home Shield, and I have had no service done.

I had a warranty hrough First American. They had customer service overseas and were horrible. I cancelled my contract and a few moths later I spoke with a sales rep in the US at This company whom advised that their prices were higher but customer service is in the US. He advised they had physical locations. He was awesome. I signed up. Long story short within a few months they moved their customer service to a scripted call center overseas! I had them come out and fix my fridge and paid my 100.00 deductible . The fridge broke down a few months later. I called back and was told there would be no additional service fee. I found out today after 40 minutes on hold to get a customer service representative that I owed another service fee AFTER I was told there would not be one and AFTER the contractor came out! Bottom line is this company charges high for monthly rates and deductible and offers little to justify it. I am canceling effective today. I will search for another company . Long hold times and scripted call center , no bang for your buck.

Communication within the various areas of AHS is in dire need of improvement. It took 8 months to finally clear up a charge for which I was billed but had paid in January of 2017. As stated, this charge had not be rectified until October of 2017.
Additionally, a cooktop had been replaced by AHS which took a month. That new cooktop was defective but was told that I had to contact the manufacturer, GE, to resolve the problem. That took another month and several phone calls. I am not sure the aggravation and time spent in taking care of these problems is worth the warrantee.

AHS handles every call efficiently and they listen when you have a comment or information on one of their vendors/contractors.
I really appreciate having the website to use for my service requests and its good to know I can always call in too.
No company is perfect but AHS does the job well!
