Repair shops are reluctant to deem an item not repairable since it reflects negatively on them with AHS; it took 3 months and 3 different repair shops to finally get one to certify my refrigerator ice maker was not repairable when the first shop should have done so.

We placed for service, AHS sent out a service call, they came out 27 days ago and we are still without a working oven. It’s four of us in this home and we being buying takeout for 20 days of the 27 days that we have been without an oven. They still do not have the part. Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! They are taking our money but is not providing the professional service that they tell people to get there business. I just hung up the phone with AHS and after 27 days the part still haven’t been ordered. I am filling a compliant and seeking out an attorney, I WANT SOMETHING DONE ABOUT THIS ASAP

The plumber that came out to see us was helpful and educated in his field. The warranty was not. Only when they see a problem. We had a smell issue which is not covered under the warranty.

I have a significant leak (plumbing) and I contacted AHS who sent a plumbing company that could not “find the leak”; but, acknowledged there is one. So they said they were going to refer AHS to get a leak specialist company. To date.....nothing. In the meantime I am running up a huge water bill.

I was not happy with this past request I put in for the plumbing issue I encountered. Literally on the phone 3 different times. Hung up I’m sure accidentally 2 times before I was able to get back on a call. The initial request I put in was for 2 toilets and garbage disposal. When Rapp plumbing came out, they stated they do not have the order for the garbage dissolved they couldn’t work on that. Back and forth on calls with AHS and they stated they sent it. Called Rapped and they stated they didn’t have it. Very disappointed in service with AHS.

Yesterday I signed up online. Decided I had made a mistake. The next day I called to cancel. After explaining to one representative, my call was forwarded to the cancellation department. I was on the line for 30 minutes, hung up, called again, told ONLY the cancellation department could help. ANOTHER 45 minutes of waiting, then the call was dropped. THIS IS NOT a good company.

had a two year old double oven just out of manufacturer warranty, the control panel controlling the temperature burned out and had AHW diagnose it they called and told me the oven was 8 years old and they will only credit me 250 towards a new one which will be paid AFTER I purchase a new one and I have it installed and they need to inspect it after and I will need to pay the inspector service fee.....( it was only 2 years old) STAY AWAY FROM THESE SCAMMERS

Very disappointed when trying to call the billing department with AHS. I get placed on hold for 25-35 minutes then my call goes straight to someone's voicemail. I have previously called twice before for the same issue-getting billed for something I have already paid. The last two times, I was told a backlog in billing and not to worry then another bill comes in the mail. Seems like once you sign up, there's not any customer service or anyone to answer any questions.

They use the term modification to exclude normal repairs. AHS excluded cost of disconnecting and reconnecting a water heater from home water supply. Because plumber had to cut and reglue line it was what they call a modification which they exclude from coverage. We normal folk call that installation. We were charged 500 dollars labor for that. Buyer beware. This is a dental discount card at best. Prepare to pay for all the AHS exclusions.. PS learn Tagolog because their claims are handled by phone avents in the Philippines who do not understand either English or the technology.

4 weeks ago we requested service for our refrigerator. We have a built-in Kitchen-Aid unit that is about 10 years old, so not too old. They assigned one company who couldn't fix it, and then another who claimed to be able to fix it. They supposedly ordered parts, but have no idea when the parts will be shipped. There is no excuse for this awful service. This is not the first bad experience we have had with them.

AHS took money out of our account because we REQUESTED service through their website. We never received a call or service. Not once but on 2 different occasions. Beware, key word is REQUESTED. When a REQUEST is submitted you are automatically charged $106 even if services are never rendered. We fixed the electrical problem ourselves. Stay away from AHS unless you want your bank account drained, $106 at a time. -10 stars!

I call american home shield for my refrigerator repair. it takes them 2 weeks to send a technician, tecnician comes and says its the motherboard. says they will be back in a week. 2 weeks goes by another technician comes and says its the compressor they will comeback after it has been approved. american home shield calls after 2 weeks and says another company will take care of the problem. guy says its under warranty. American home shield does not inform me that the refrigerator cannot be repaired by them because its under warranty. I was waiting for almost 2 months without a refrigerator.

This company is a SCAM. First be prepare to wait on hold for quite a while before actually speaking to someone. Next, be prepare to get DENIED. My water heater sprung a leak and the company said that my 80 year old tenant broke it. Nope. My 80 year old tenant did not touch it. My tenant is intimidated to touch anything as he is old and not handy. He simply calls me and I called AHS. This is their MO.

Where do I begin!!!! Absolutely the worst in Customer Service! The repair people sent to my house where incompetent. Broke my HVAC system and then lied about what the problem was so that they wouldn't be responsible. I'm out $495.00 on top of the service fee and still have no Heat/Air. My policy is cancelled as of September 2017 but American Home Shield just decided to charge my account in December $75.00 no explanation. RUN DO NOT WALK AWAY from this company!!! They will take your money and have fixed nothing!!!!!! I star is too much they deserve 1/4 of a start if that much!!!

Worst company ever. My first call for a repair of my oven was answered in about 15 min, they referred me to their appliance dept. he came out in a few days. Then it was down hill all the way. They couldn't fix it and they did not replace it, after 2months waiting for a solution they offered me $322.00 for a stove, a paid $75.00 for the service call that mount was actually $247.00 my new stove cost $647.00. That is NOT replacement.

3 weeks and still no resolution to a broken dishwasher. Technician took one week to arrive, another week for the diagnosis and another week for a technician to show up with parts only to tell us that they don't have the parts to fix it and there are multiple issues that need to be fixed and it will cost more to fix than replace. Most painful customer experience I have ever witnessed and no accountability to fix in a timely manner. I highly recommend thinking twice before choosing a large warranty company like AHS since they are stuck in process and not solving customer issues.

Extremely poor at assisting with emergency situations. We had water coming through our ceiling from an ac leak. Once they determined it was covered they said the soonest they could get someone out was the next day and that was within their protocol. Even talked to a supervisor, same verbiage-they are within their protocol. They were primarily interested in getting their fee collected. Got another vendor and had it fixed within an hour for $129.

Poor customer service we contacted AHS to fix our washer the beginning of the month it is now 23rd of February and still do not have use of our washer. The hold time on the phone is extremely long . We have been customers for over a year and now we need service they have not helped us. Disappointing and disgusted supervisors have not been able to resolve our dilemma.

We had a problem with a plumber and they do not back their venders mistakes you are on your own. If I use a company and they say I have to use their vender they should help me if they make a mistake. The plumbing company still will not help me with their mistake or call me back.

I will never use this company again. There is an average of a 45 minute wait to talk to a representative. The representatives tell you what they think you want to hear. They made me pay twice for a service call that was misdiagnosed and they won't refund their $75.00 service call fee. The HVAC companies they contract with won't make emergency service calls on a weekend or in the evening when the representatives tell you that they will. AND now they won't let me cancel my monthly subscription without jumping through hoops. DO NOT USE THEM!!

Just ok. Watch the fine print and the contractors they use. We had a plumbing issue that never got resolved because the plumber knew how to get by AHS verbiage so they could over charge us to fix the problem. What they didn't realize is that I'm in the business and knew exactly what they were trying to do. AHS doesn't cover alot including refrigerate in your hvac system. Definitely not worth it.

The first tech came to my house 12-22-17 a determined that my 13 year old fridge should be replaced. AHS wanted a second opinion. The second Tech (from another company) came out in January and made the same determination. It’s 2-8-18 and I still don’t have a working fridge. I CAN NOT and WILL NOT recommended AHS to anyone. The independent techs were helpful but my experience with AHS Corporate has been terrible. I tried to call their 800 Number and the projected wait was 64 minutes! I hung up the phone

Took them 11 days to receive and install a furnace. I had a two week old baby in the house at the time. I understand waiting a week or two for any other appliance but a furnace in the middle of winter. Absolutely terrible of them to make my family freeze for 11 days and not offer to cover a hotel stay or a stipend to pay for my space heater costs. Very dissatisfied for the way they handle furnace claims.
