First American Home Warranty Reviews

If you call them, they call the contractor out and fix the problem. We use the warranty all the time actually. We have an older house. I just put it in an email what we need to be fixed and they send the contractor. They call us within twenty four hours and come fix it and off we go. They are timely and professional and they resolve everything.

The app was easy and convenient to request the services. Called when they said they would. Not a long wait. Worked around my schedule and you can request services online easily! Fairly priced as well. Both the monthly payment and the services!

They came with the purchase of the home and they have performed well since then. They've been responsive to each request and it is easy to submit requests. Everything has gone well. Service is prompt and adequate. Some of their contractors weren't up to doing the job the first time but most have been resolved.

Most of the time, the service is really good and get things done quick. I have been in my home for months and had to call them three or four times and they have been pretty good at getting things done for me. The first time I needed something with my dishwasher and they got someone out here right away, which was really good, but the second time, it took several days before somebody came.

The last time I had plumbing issues, First American Home Warranty came and repaired the problem. I was really happy with the service, it is the best out there. I've had it for a long time and they're pretty dependable. They go all the way to do certain things without even charging you.

My mom and my sister both had it and liked First American. They have provided us with good service and always sent someone right away that was qualified and do a good job. When they tried to fix out garbage disposal but couldn't, they replaced it. Customer service is quick to get back with us and get somebody to us.

I recommend them almost daily. Someone is always available in customer service. We called in for a claim and it was handled promptly. My only complaint is there is no follow up from First American and they didn't relay information to the contractor.

I greatly appreciate what they do. They are very responsive and knowledgeable and go above and beyond to make sure my needs are taken care of. I love the simplicity of being able to log in and get through and their responses have always been really quick and great.

I think it is a good deal, especially if you have been in your home for a lengthy period of time. They were very quick with their responses and they have somebody out pretty much immediately. I have used them twice and so far it is pretty amazing.

I think they are trustworthy. They've always been really good about providing the service when needed. I've had two instances in the last month where I've used them. I was okay with what they did with my electric range but not my water heater because I didn't hear from them for over a week for an appointment. It would be nice to have the option to choose your own people.

First American Home Warranty is an outstanding company. I've had to use them a number of times and they sent people right away and it was all settled beautifully. They are very efficient and they have a good telephone system, the people are very polite and speak clearly and are fluent in English.

I call customer support a lot and I am always able to talk to somebody and they try to at least help with our problems. Most of our issues have been taken care of quickly except the heating and dishwasher took a long time. It took a month to get the dishwasher done and I think it could have been much quicker but every time I called First American, they were very helpful and tried to get it moving. I think there should be quicker communication and they should check in with their customers to see where the contractors are.

Extremely responsive. The 6 times I needed to use them, I was able to get a response in a timely manner. I wasn't happy with one contractor that showed up but the next time I was happy. I find the agents to be very knowledgeable of what is covered in my plan and they are also very empathetic.

They always have the right thing. When their usual plumbing company vendor could not repair my bathroom fixtures, I had my own usual plumber fix the problem, and First America Home Warranty reimbursed me completely for my expenses.

With electrical plumbing, they cover everything and that's very good. They don't give you any problems. First American Home Warranty is top notch. I would definitely recommend them to anybody. I've been a customer of theirs for the past fourteen years.

They've been responsive to my requests. Recently I had a pool pump begin to die and I called them and it was fixed within a week and replaced a brand new unit in one visit. It was a good experience. They have been responsive and quick in their service.

They've always responsed promptly to any claim we entered and the companies they have sent have all been excellent. Recently, something went out on the furnace and the people responsed within the day and they were here within another day so they had a prompt service call. The service has always been excellent.

They are very responsive. I'm using it today for an electrical problem and it's getting fixed right now. I had had other problems with rats and they don't cover rats and theu don't spray outside. Otherwise, I've had a good experience with them.

They came once and helped us. I was happy and they have reasonable prices. They help with everything from the drier to the dishwasher. They are really helpful. I like the people who are working with them because they fixed it and sent another one without taking any money.

I needed to use it for a dishwasher for my air conditioning and for my furnace. First American was very good and contacted someone immediately. Some of the people that First Ameriance contracts with are less than disrable and their ability to take care of your case and they aren't able to come to your home. The furnace wasn't working and it was in January. I had to wait a week. I spent a day working going back and forth between the company and First American to get someone to come out.

I’ve been very happy with 1st American. Had coverage for 7 years, I’m guessing. Always treated fairly.

I like the fast response and the sense of urgency from First American Home Warranty, when I have a maintenance issue.

I found this company after becoming a widow and needed help with things in my house. Would definitely recommend

my likes you usual do what is promised my dis like you can not talk to a person if you have a problem you talk to a machine

All I asked for was that they would send a competent repair man to help me with my broken dryer. It's been 6 weeks and no dryer.

I am a long time customer of First American Home Warranty 15 years and I hope to continue being a valued customer so far so good.

I'm still waiting to get an answer about my dishwasher repair. The company that they sign to repair it I wouldn't use them EVER again, they are not a company that you can trust.

Quick response in providing the right service repair men for the job, and excellent follow-up service and feedback.. Thanks

They have been very integrous unlike 2 former companies I had. Service is quick and fair. Techs are knowledgeable and polite. I've never been disappointed. Janice Chase

down and started leaking water. Upon realizing this we dialed first america to file a claim. They assigned us a specialist technician and sent him to check our water heater. The technician arrives and only checks from the garage, he never enters the house. The next day the technician gave an estimate of approximately 500 dollars for modifications to the installation of the new water heater. Upon receiving this information we called First America and I told them to appoint another technician because the other one, since he arrived, saw the opportunity to do business with supposed modifications for the installation of the new water heater, which were correct and not modification was necessary. They told me that they could not assign another technician as that was the assigned technician. I told him that I was not comfortable with the technician that we felt that he saw the Opportunity to get some extra money, since we only wanted to repair the boiler which he didn't even check, there was no reason to make modifications. Then I ask them to change the technician and they tell me no, that that was my assigned contractor and that there was no way to change it and they tell me that there are two ways: or two options: One option is: we hire our own contractor with a license and invoice and registration and send them the invoice and they will send us a part of the invoice that we pay. And when everything is done they occupied that invoice To cover the new equipment in the future under the same policy. The other option was for them to They sent a check with what First America pays for that repair. And I told them that allows me to consult it With my husband and let him make the decision. During this process the days passed until reaching two weeks without water Heater. I called them back and I explain again and I tell them again that I am still struggling and they still did not solve me the problem with the water heater and insisted that I had to pay the technician the money for the Modifications or grab a cashier's check for what they paid for that repair. Because of the failure with the water heater, we had no shower on the top tier, no washing machine, no dishwasher. After all this stress generated I spoke to them again and they told me to hire my own technician. And what Send the invoice and let me They will pay part of the bill, not the 100 Percent but Probable more than Half. That's what I did, that same day they told me that, I spoke to the Company that originally installed the boiler and they immediately came, inspected and changed the water heater without any modifications to the house. Charging me 550 for the unit change, which had an active warranty with the factory. And from which I later found out that the First America technician had already done the process to make the unit change and I found out through a First America agent. As I followed the Instruction, I sent the invoice and in exchange I received a check for a fabulous 40 dollars. They call me and tell me that they closed my case, that since I did not agree to pay the technician for the modifications that he wanted to make because he did not need them, they took the Cashier check option to finalize and conclude my case. So obviously I was upset when I received the check for 40 dollars and I complained to them about what one of their employees said that they would pay me more than half the amount. It cost and this turned out, and they told me that everything had been done under contract that I should have read the smaller letters in the contract and that if the equipment has a warranty from the manufacturer, First America does not cover it. Although the seller of My house opted to get a premium warranty with first American being the most complete package they have. Then I answer the Woman who answered my call and I then told her that the First America warranty does not work for me, because in my new house I installed all new appliances and that I wanted to cancel the warranty and get my money back. What were they paid to grab? a new warranty for home. And she tells me that they cannot return 100 percent that I have to pay a penalty for canceling and I told her three weeks ago we bought the house, not even a month has passed and I already have problems with you And that the penalty that I They charged for filing a claim and not for canceling the contract and I told them that I was canceling because they did not comply with the service. After 4 years of being clients in various houses. And she said that she was sorry that there was a claim and that she was going to charge me the penalty and collect the money for monthly payments for canceling. That is to say, after more than three years of being their clients in different houses and on this occasion where it is their turn Solve a problem which they did not do, it turns out that everything gets complicated and that under those conditions I could cancel and then I told him that he came The boiler company Li——-and they came and me They installed it without any problem, they did the Change of equipment On the other hand, without modifications, without changes or adaptations, because the facilities They did not occupy any modification, which was where the problem began and she answers me, and She said that neither she nor I were technicians, that's what specialists were for, and that she fully trusted her technicians. I told him that I trust the technicians of the Company li—- and I asked her if for her I was a liar and that she didn't know if I was lying or not, but that they based it on her techniques and then I told her I said that there was the problem in that they did not give the client their place. And then I asked if that was what the 40 Dollars covered and she She tells me that it is the payment to the technician based on a tabulator that they have. I said that was where she had the problem. Because the technician came with the First America clients and they wanted to get the Payment from them at the expense of her clients. Because 40 dollars, to where I live, they don't even pay the gas to the technician for the Service. So they without me make a decision They sent a cashier's check for 40 dollars, which was the amount they paid for the technician. It should be noted that at the outset we made the payment of 85 dollars for the initial claim and we sent them the invoice for what we paid and they sent us a check for 40 dollars. It's seriously First America.

Quick turnaround time. Great work. Very polite and respectful. Explained what’s wrong and what will be done to fix the problem. Also recommended things to help the compressor. But not trying to oblige me to get it.

basically ive had good experiences with fahw but my last episode my electrical problem was denied and they never called me to let me know...when the contractor came he told me...then i had to pay him full price to fix my flourencent lite.

Great value and good service, Have recommended to family and friends for the last 5+ years. I have never had an issue that cannot be resolved have been with First American home warranty for over 10 years

My wash machine went out the first American called a service man he come out and looked at it and decided that they need to be replaced with a new one I got a new one installed it's working very good

i have been with this company for years and have always found them to be excellent from the phone call to report a need to the completed repair I'm sharing and i do refer family and friends

My refriderator replacement took several months and this was shocking and a horrible challenge. replacement brands are not the best but the cash out option is an acceptable alternative; I apply the cash payout to the brand or style preferred

They're there when you need them and they get to helping you right away. It's easy to contact them, make an appointment with them and they show up on time as well as getting the job done. Very pleasant people to work with.

I appreciate having a one-stop shop for all things that can go wrong; and having a set amount to pay.I do think that the annual fee is steep - especially since it cannot be split over the year (this year being very bad with my insurance dropping me).And I live in a place where it is difficult to find repair folks, so I have had to actually spend my own time finding people - and then would have to go through somehoops to get their services covered. I think If I'm doing the work, I should at least have the service charge refunded.

my central air conditioner had a freon leak and needed several pounds of R-12, which is no longer made. The A/C company charged up the system, but did not find the leak. Technician said that probably the inside coil, but the warranty would not pay for a permanent fix and it would be so expensive that i should replace the entire system. this is not a warranty.

Good response to service calls but when my A/C needed repair the first person who came to my house had absolutely no idea what he was doing. I had to kick him out of my house. Second one was good. Took a very long time to get replacement items but there were a lot of supply issues. Very happy with the final resolution.

When you have to wait, 3 weeks with no AC, AND YOUR INS. LOW BALL YOU, KNOWING THAT THEIR COST IS NOT THE SAME AS YOUR COST, AND YOU HAVE TO BUY SOMETHING TO HELP YOURSELF WHILE YOU WAIT ON THEM, THE CONTRACTOR THEY HIRE, GIVES YOU GUYS A BREAK, AND THEY KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS ARE WILLING TO PAY FOR, THEY KNOW THEY CAN CHARGE BY HOW THEY WRITE THE REPORT, NOW YOUR COST IS 3 TIMES WHAT YOU GUYS ARE GOING TO PAY OUT, I WAS HUNG UP ON, 3 TIMES, waited for hours at a time just to get to the right people. I had to beg for some kind of help with money to BUY portable AC. 100 DEGREES IN MY HOUSE FOR 3 WEEKS, ELDERLY MAN, WITH HEATH CONDITIONS. LOOKING FOR WAYS NOT TO PAY OR HELP. THIS IS NOT A WATER HEATER, OR SMALL APPLIANCES, THIS situation is well being, and heath. So disappointed in a company I had for 10 years, and only use it maybe 3 times, it went from 35 to 60, in that time period, and 75 to 89 on a service call, loyalty doesn't count here, the first contractor, talk to me like I had a tail, disrespectful, and should have seen the contract they wanted me to sign, you need to check your people, you hire for your customers, oh it's what best for your company. Not clients

We've dealt with other warranty companies in the past - slow responses, higher fees, and overall poor performance. We've been very happy with First American and the technicians they've sent.

We call twice for issue and both times they were resolved within hours. Technician came out and took care of problems. Also the technician also gave us advice for future references.

Generally very responsive to problems and has provided us with good coverage for a couple major appliances. Had a little difficulty getting reimbursed quickly and had to wait on hold for an hour to speak to someone. But we are still pleased with the coverage.

Generally good but often problems with assigned contractors and with the two major issues I've had, I had to replace items at my own expense, while First American did pay a portion, it was not a large portion. Seems there is always a loophole that prevents them from replacing anything (AC/HVAC or Water Heater) when it goes down.

The contractors are hit or miss. Sometimes they're really good and correctly identify the problem, other times they don't And it's concern that First American continues to work with contractors who have poor reviews and history of bad customer service. And recently, I called to have another contractor assigned to my claim but was told there were no other options.

It's a fight because they give me all the information I need and they the people that needs to work on whatever I need in my home they call me back quickly that's why I like first American home warranty

It's been a long wait, 3 companies in for replacing my AC Unit. Sweltering heat in the 100s. At the least they refunded $300 of the $700 we had to spend on AC Portable Units only 2. My home is 2,000+ sq ft. One in master and one in Living room. Not doing any cooling at all. 80-90* in the house in the afternoon till lat in the evening. I've begged to get the Unit installed. Almost 2 months later no new Unit!

I feel that the coverages are too vague and too many exclusions result in my 3 star rating. I had an issue as soon as I moved in where I saw water leaking from the pipe but because it was located right outside of my backyard, I was told it was not a covered issue. Since I had no other claim experience, I am not sure if there will be numerous exclusions that would deem my warranty useless.

Everything takes so long to get processed. If you do not call repeatedly and stay on top of them, it takes forever.
