Having a problem getting my A/C unit fixed its been down for 2 days and i have called multiple time and i get the same answer. There are no contractor in your area and when i signed up for the warranty plan they told me they several contractors in my area.

I used to have this. I cancelled it because I had a leak under my sink and they never sent anyone. Then they charged me some fees for canceling. They didn't even care that my kitchen floor was ruined. This is a scam. They just want your money. You are better off having a savings account just for home repairs.

I put in a request for my air conditioning to be repaired. It is 100 degrees today and they are telling me I can get it repaired until tomorrow. They are terrible. I will call a service tec and cancel my service. Their option is to give me 150.00 towards a 500.00 portable air conditioner. Who can wait 48 hours in 100 degree weather.

Working with this company has been the worst experience I’ve ever had. All the previous complaints are exactly what I have gone through as well; non-communication, sending inexperienced technicians, poor customer service and delaying of jobs. I work in real estate and so I tell everyone I know to avoid FAHW.

Terrible, terrible, terrible. Best they could offer when air-con went out for over a week in the AZ Summer was $50 for a fan. The company are aware of heart issues that the tenant has but refused to budge on their fan offer. When asked for a cheap hotel they flatly refused. Don’t do it, this company is a rip-off.

They send out the most poorly-rated companies to do work. They will find EVERY excuse not to cover expenses. We are in the middle of a huge repair bill caused by one of their contractors, and no one is taking responsibility. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.

This company is a waste of time you give them money pay for contract then they ask money from you to send a free contractor out to look at it. Then they split hairs when it comes to what they cover they have a word in there contract that says " all other" another words if we dont want to cover it we dont have to unless its cheap for them

Bad poor service they don’t comply with contract, not enough explanations in coverage and on top of that you still have to pay their service fee for nothing, I needed to replace a part of water heater where contract says that all Parts are covered and at the end they said is not covered.

I received this home warranty when we purchased our home. Had to pay a service fee for them to confirm the same thing a separate contractor stated when our heat exchange cracked. First they denied it, and then offered to replace it with a lesser model. Would not recommend this company. We switched to another provider that allows us to use any company we choose to complete the work or diagnose the issue.
