Great Service from Fazio Plumbing. The plumber was timely, knowledgeable and completed all of the work at the first appointment. Normally, it takes at least 2 visits to complete the work.

I had my 17 year old dishwasher stop cleaning and I called for service / repair. The repair company can't replace it as that is not what they do. The repair guy was going to have AHS reach out to me to schedule an install of a new Dishwasher. So I waited 5 days without contact from AHS and I called for help on this matter. I was told that I would get an email of which to select the features I wanted on the new dishwasher. Great! I have not seen it arrive yet via email. AHS you are rapidly losing points with me!

Matt Oklahoma City, OK

Our air conditioner went out on Sept. 6. It's now November 1, and it's still not fixed. The vendor AHS selected has been nearly impossible to contact. When we contacted AHS to escalate the issue, the vendor contacted us to make an appointment, then did not show up. When we did finally get through, we were told that they had received the wrong part. During all of this, AHS did relatively little to assist us. Numerous times, we asked to speak to a supervisor or to further escalate the issue, only to be told that was not possible. Now it's been almost two months, and the best AHS can do is give us $100 off the cost of the refrigerant (AHS pays only $10 per pound, and we need 8 pounds, leaving us with almost $500 to pay). AHS did offer us cash in lieu of repairs in the amount of less than $1,200. The labor alone for the repairs is $1,800. We did use AHS one other time, and everything was great. This time, it has been an absolute battle to get anything done. Their vendor is either lazy or incompetent, and no one at AHS has been the least bit concerned with this fact. I cannot recommend AHS as a home warranty and do not plan on renewing with them. If they don't have reputable vendors who will, at minimum, answer their phones, it's not worth the hassle.

You get prompt service. The feedback is excellent. They contact the contractors quickly, but the home owner should have opportunity to contact a contractor of their choice. When a problem is not solved, AHS should follow through with the contractor directly and not get the home owner involved. The home was the issue resolved expeditiously.

Paul McIntyre Lake Bluff, IL

It's good if you have minor issues that need fixed, but the minute you have a major issue you realize the value of what you are buying. I had two catastrophic issues take place within relative close proximity and both were handled the same way. One was the water heater the other my AC. The water heater cracked over Labor Day and I needed a new one immediately. They came and said it would be at least a week (family of 5...not gonna happen) just to get the part. Given we needed hot water ASAP I took the option of getting the cash value not knowing what I was getting and went retail. I ended up getting the cash value of $425 to fix the water heater which was nowhere near the actual cost to replace. The second issue was the AC. This issue the compressor broke on an old unit. To fix the compressor I was going to have to pay an additional $1,000 out of pocket on non-covered items (freon, piping,etc). So I decided to take the cash value for my AC which was $478, obviously nowhere near the cost to replace an AC. And not worth paying over $1K to fix an old AC. So all in all I will hopefully get around $900 back from the warranty off two items covered. My annual premium is around $550-$600, plus the $75 deductible each time they come out. I've probably spent several hundred in just deductibles. So I'm probably about break even on cost using them on two catastrophic issues of which both I had or will have to go outside of the warranty to replace. So in summary. Good if you don't have major issues. If you have big ones, don't expect them to cover you. SO read the fine print on your contract. There are probably better warranties out there that cover more.

AHS recieves a 3 star rating. the customer service reps are very difficult and time consuming to communicate with. often it takes 5 to 7 days longer to get a service request completed because the ability to communicate in English is very poor and you cant be transferred to an english speaking american to resolve a contractor issue. I have been a customer since 2001. the service has dramitically deterioratored over the past 4 years. I have been pushed to failure with the telephone reps and had to just terminate the call because they were incapable of communication. its sad.

I received a 1 year home warranty when I purchased my house. It was great until it was time to renew. I contacted the company 2 months before it was see to expire. I renewed and they immediately debitted my account. I called back to ask why I was paying on a policy that wasn't in effect yet. They told me it was a renewal fee. What a load of garbage! I tried explaining to the rep that I had not been told about the fee but she was unhelpful and unable to refund my money.
