DO NOT GET THIS WARRANTY....I’ve been trying to get the AC repaired. Now it’s going on a month and they keep on switching contractors but no repair yet. Worse company I’ve dealt with.

The worst customer service anyone can have. Their customer service reps do not know how to talk. Its based outside USA. They have no sense of customer service. They use bad contrators so they dont have to pay a lot

Bad service from First American Home warranty, they send companies that don't know how to fix problems covered in their warranty. When contacting main office you get nothing solved. I will not renew with them.

Our washer broke on 5/7. It's 6/12 And we still don't have a replacement. We call and call but never get calls back. We're at the point where we may have to pursue litigation to get them to honor their warranty.

I had the misfortune of having this company as my first home warranty company after purchasing my home. They were awful. The technicians did work that lasted 30 days and the company would try to make you pay service fees for the same issue that their techs never truly fixed.

First American denied a claim for a washer because the stainless steel drum had a lifetime warranty. They said that if any part of the appliance is under warranty that the entire appliance is not covered by the home warranty.
