Over the past year their service has gotten worse and worse. I am becoming increasingly more disappointed in American home shield by them refusing coverage on almost everything and am dissatisfied with them sending out company that is not even Accredited by the Better business Bureau!

ROBERT JAMES III Huntsville, AL

American Home Shield could use more english speaking customer service reps due to difficulty understanding what CSR are saying. Also, the contract terms are contradicting. For example, Section 4 Plumbing (notes) confirms that AHS will provide access to plumbing only through unobstructed walls, ceilings or floors and will return access openings to a rough finish. Section I. Limitations and Exclusions: Partial exclusions from coverage 4. (a,b,c)

Terri Josten San Diego, CA

Getting the run around. Our toilet has been broken for a few months. Plumbers are the worst. One never showed up after I scheduled an appointment and had my daughter wait around half the day. The next came, fixed it and then it broke again a week later. Tried to reschedule only to be told after many tries since they rarely answer their phone, only to be told they are only in our area i the mornings when no one can be home. I've dealt with 4-5 different people from American Home Shield only to be told they have to contact the plumber we are assigned to before they can switch. I keep telling them the plumber doesn't answer the phone and now a week later still nothing has been done. I just want to scream and cancel with American Home Shield but we've put so much money in to this that I feel like I would be even more ripped off.

You do offer enough coverage for repairs! Having to replace a HVAC system was pretty much on us with very little help from you. We are thinking finding another home coverage provider. It seems you only want provide for small repairs.

I has been ok, but my account still has the old homeowner's info and I've tried more times than I can count to get it corrected. On my dashboard I can't even see my contract, it's still the previous homeowners and the contract number on my dashboard is still the previous homeowners.

They are very good for routine service calls. The problem arises when "fixing it" is not the best option and yet that is what they insist upon. I am also very frustrated that I can't amend my contract to cover other appliances without vastly increasing the price or canceling my existing contract

Responsive, though generally don't have a good solution to problems. Instead of replacing my very expensive dishwasher with something equivalent, you give me much cheaper models. Instead of replacing my oven door, you want to send it off for weeks and weeks to get rebuilt.

I was not told the truth of regarding the coverage or conditions of the plan. When I had to add additional coverage I was told it would be added to my account as a monthly payment. Every time I call, the representative promises one thing and then it is not delivered. I requestedthis policy be canceled in October and today, I get a bill for $111.84 past due. The representative said I owe $36.66 a month or $73.32, for DEC and JAN. This is not what the bill states. With some much misinformation, I do not want to keep this policy, and I have said that many times.

It's convenient to have a one-stop-shop to call for repairs, but the products that they replace items with are of poor quality and/or they give you a very limited budget to buy a new product that isn't on their approved items

During the recent need for a hot water tank replacement we were never told (verbally or in writing) exactly how much our warranty covered the cost of the replacement. I feel as the homeowner we should be informed about the coverage amount and cost detail from the vendor.

Still have issue and AHS wont cover it I've been paying AHS for 15 yrs. now and I'm seriously considering going with another warranty company. I feel like my wife and I have thrown our money away for last 15yrs. unacceptable!!!

American Home Shield promised to replace our range, yet offered no options that fit in our kitchin (within our island that's not at all abnormal). When I asked for more options, I received no response. Update: after emailing, calling and waiting on hold for an hour, I got through to someone who managed to resolve the situation.

Now they have this face-to-face video and you share the new equipment in my case my washer. It was making a grinding noise and on the video the gentleman said oh that's a coupling we'll order that right now. The guy came out to fix it opened up the transmission it needs more than a coupling it needs two more parts. So I think they need to stop the face-to-face videos and come out like the old days and open the equipment take a look at it and then order the parts. Not very happy right now

The hold times to speak to a rep is RIDICULOUS!!! The likely hood of replacing an appliance is almost 0% - we just keep fixing little things $100 at a time when it is definitly more effective to just replace the appliance.

I wish I could say something positive but I can't. Long story, but when we had to have our A/c worked on, it would have cost us $1500 out of pocket so we opted to replace. I was upset so I called to cancel and was told I would receive $700 which would have been the cost of the repair. When I never received it and called, I was told it would go to the A/C company. So I decided to cancel my policy and was told I would be charged 1 mo for cancelling early! We bickered on the phone and then I was told I'd have the rest of my contract for free. I really just wanted to cancel and was never able to!

Disappointed in the service I've received in regards to my washer not being fixed the first time someone was sent out. THEN being told I may have to wait almost 3 weeks for someone to come back out to check it, WHEN I HAD A CONTRACTOR COMING THE NEXT DAY TO CHECK MY DRYER. I asked repeatedly why they couldn't just have him check both the washer and dryer

Tyler Cincinnati, OH

The company is extremely slow about claims and refunds. My fridge went out and it took 2 months to get it repaired. The second claim was to put freon in a heat pump. The first company they dispatched never showed up and the second company was still charging $150 for Puron that wasn't covered by the company. I was charged a $100 service charge for both even though neither repair company made a visit to my house. It has been over a month since they promised to refund the service fees and I keep getting excuses about how backed up they are and it will be "processed within the week". Only its been 4 weeks and 4 times of them telling me this.

My heat pump stopped working and the 1st tech said I needed a part, while waiting on the part for 2 weeks, I had to call THEM to be told that I had to pay $1650 for this part! A second tech from another company came out and said, @No, you need a new Heat pump and I was also denied again! I called to cancel service after they took a payment and $100 service fee out of my account! Now, they have taken another monthly charge out after I've cancelled! Who wants to keep paying someone for nothing? I don't need you! You are a fraud and you have no concern for your members who have no heat in freezing temps, who are also seniors!
