It should be made clear exactly what is covered for ex sample Electrice work but they don't say some electrical work is no covered because of certain codes for wringing so you pay seventy five dollars to find this out when you put in a work order fit all of you i and cross all of your t .

Results are spotty. I had an excellent visit, then I had a bad one that I had to call back and the followup was too long. today is 8/25 and the follow was for 9/1. If it was done right the first time, I wouldn't be bothered with another visit and such a long wait for repair.

Eva McCoy Beaumont, TX

I called to report my hot water heater leaking. American Home sent a plumber. The plumber recommended a replacement. I have a 80 gallon Whirlpool American Home states that is concerned a industrial and will only replace with a 50 gallon. I ask about a cash out and I replace. I have called 4 times since asking and weeks have went by. Each assuring I will get an email with the cash out amount and as of today still no answer. I have to cut the water off to my hose everyday for the hot water heater leaking in my floor. This was supposed to make life easier, but has caused more stress and all except for the last customer service representative was very rude and unprofessional. I have ask to speak to a supervisor and one lady told me they were no need and refused. I pay over $89 a month and paid $125 for service call and nothing done. In fact causing more trouble.

For the latest need, a lot of effort was put in by me to contact HS AND the contractor. Kind of frustrating with the price per month paid, and the service call fee, for the customer to be doing so much work.

I am frustrated that I have had to have someone out here 3 different times to work on my air conditioning. The company that has come are non responsive. I have had to call them myself each and every time. They are nice and I kn now they are busy, but they need to keep their customers updated or give a time frame as to when the work can be done.

First experience with hot water heater. I was never reimbursed for hot water heater, took forever to get refrigerator replaced once it went out, not sure how many technicians and times different company's came out. I do have to say the technician that came out for the toilets was awesome.

American Home Shield has been great. Some improvements could be made at the repairs level. Our air conditioning unit was repaired too many times. A level of highier competence on the part of the repair companies choosen would have been appreciated and would have saved many dollars.

Service fee practices on an AC system when not functioning requires 2 payments this is unethical- it's one system- then you have to identify which unit you want to work on first - as if the homeowner is an AC repair person and knowswhere the problem

Your website was very confusing for what we needed help with- outside faucet attached to the house so I had to call to speak to your customer service person. It was obvious they were reading from a script - could not speak English well and wasting my time - I just wanted her to answer my questions.

Had an awful time with hvac system last year at one house, waited over 3 months to get AC in the summer, no apologies only excuses. I've had a couple good experiences. Also, I have a second policy on a second home and they just patch the hvac instead of replacing.

I DISAGREE WITH THE CONTRACTOR THEY SENT AND PAID ANOTHER AC COMPANY WHO DISAGREED WITH THE COMPANY AHS SENT. BECAUSE I FIRST DID NOT WANT AHS TO SEND THEIR COMPANY FOR A 2ND OPINION (I DIDN'T TRUST THEIR COMPANIES) THE PLACER HEATING AND AIR DIAGNOIS WAS APPROVED EVEN THOUGH IT WAS NOT A CORRECT DIAGNOSIS. I ASKED FOR ANOTHER COMPANY TO COME OUT AND THEY SAID SINCE IT WAS ALREADY APPROVED (EVEN THOUGH THIS WAS NOT A CORRECT DIAGNOSIS) I COULD NOT HAVE A SECOND COMPANY TO COME EVALUATE MY AC. PLACER HEATING AND AIR WILL NOT SEND OUT A DIFFERENT TECH TO REVALUATE SO I AM STUCK WITH THIS AHS LISTENING TO THIS FRAUDULANT COMPANY AND NOT ME THE HOMEOWNER AND PERSON WHO PAYS THE AHS PAYMENTS.

I can at best give only a 2 star rating. This is the 3rd time in the last year and a half I have had a technition to our house for the same problem with our refrigerator. Our refrigerator has had high temperatures which after 4-5 days will return to acceptable levels. Recently the temperature reached 64 degrees for several days before returning to the high 30's. I was again charged $100 for the service and nothing was done.

They make it easy to put in a service request and are affordable. I recently put in a request to fix our air conditioner though and after a month it's still not fixed. A/C company is saying it always takes this long when dealing with AHS so I feel improvements could be made in that regard.

Our refrigerator has been inoperable for three weeks. Took over a week to get a repairman here and after 20 minutes I was told the compressor was out. He told me a week ago that it had to be ordered and we haven't heard anything since until I called yesterday and was told the compressor had been ordered.

Some services are able to be repaired fairly quickly but others require very long wait times and as a result you have to pay out of pocket to get the covered item repaired sooner. Also American home shield is becoming very expensive.

My ac unit has been out of service for almost 1 month, AHS ordered the condenser which the contractor received, but we found out after waiting for a week or so that the evaporator coil was not put on order as previously though, after AHS finally put the item on order, now we are being told that they are trying to find a supplier for the part. The problem is why this company cannot find this part.

Customer service has been outsourced to a foreign country. The CS reps are hard to understand and they seem to have a hard time understanding an Americanaccent. The hold times are ecessive - sometimes over an hour. AHS has repeatedly charged the service fee to my credit card before a contractor has been assigned. When a service request is canceled it takes mutltiple phone calls and many days to get a refund of the service call charge. If contractors are not available through AHS, AHS will not work with customers when they find a contractor on their own. AHS lets the customer wait for weeks with their Service Request "pending" and in a "queue". AHS used to be a top-notch company, but things have changed. Customer service was always great. I used to recommend AHS to my friends and promoted AHS to my real estate clients, but I can no longer do that.
