The worst The worst. Had an air conditioner compressor go out. Sent contractor and said they would fix the a/c but my portion would be $800. No details just agree to paying $800. Did some calling and found out the extra was for uncovered costs for refrigerant. Contractor cost was 110$ per pound. Local industry standard charge is 60 per pound. Contractor cost is $14 per pound. He later called and said he was sorry but signed a lock in price contract with AHS that he had to charge that much. Of course, HS denied that. My contention was either they forced the price, or they hire contractors who inflate their price with no concern for the customer. I settled for cash payment ($704) Which proves homeowners cost for uncovered is always more than customers extra costs. I received an email that I would recieve my payment deposited in 1-3 days. After a week and many calls, they are saying our system isn't working. Payments aren't going out. don't know when it will go out. This explanation was after one telling me it would be 14-21 days, Another to simply wait another day. No one who can really answer questions or give accountablilty. All phone numbers go to a phone operators who have to reach out to their managers and get back to you.

False Advertisement What a joke, this company was fine to work with when replacing my downstairs AC unit 2 years ago. Now that my upstairs AC unit does not work they won't replace it. HVAC people have come out numerous times and can't find why it's not working, besides its age & it needs to be replaced. They want to send me to HVAC company after company until they find the answer they want and I have to pay! DO NOT waste your hard earned money with a company that I will be pursing legal action against if this does not get solved.

I have been with American Home Shield… I have been with American Home Shield for over 5 years. Their service is very prompt and courteous. Anytime I have had a emergency at home with maintenance or appliances, they have been really good about sending service on the same day or next day

SAVE YOUR MONEY - PAY FOR YOUR OWN REPAIRS! They utilize contractors that are new in business, non-professional. We had only 3 claims in 3 years but on all of them, we had to have our own contractor repair the damage as AHS's choice of contractor was inept. When we decided it was time to drop the coverage, AHS gave me the run-around, transferred my calls into a cue for 30+ minutes & did not get back to me. I eventually had to stop payments through my bank to get my contract cancelled. Awful treatment, poor contractors, very pricey at $108.00 per month. Each year the price goes up and they lower the cap on what they will pay if you have a covered event! I DO NOT RECOMMEND.

AHS CUSTOMER SERVICE IS AS EFFECTIVE AS A MERRY-GO-ROUND What went wrong is that AHS makes it impossible to get through to someone within the company who can make/override decisions of the customer service reps in the Philippines. I thought it was a law that if I were to ask to be transferred to someone stateside who was fluent in English that the out of country employees would have to do so; however, they tell me they have no way of connecting me to anyone stateside. They do give me a telephone number for their HQ in Tennessee, but that's a waste of time because you cannot get a live person on the telephone. It's all robotics. So, if you have an issue to resolve, you might as well throw it to the wind. You'll get the same result doing that. I'm going to search for another home warranty company. I'll make certain I can reach a live person in their stateside office before I sign up. If that doesn't work, I'll just put my premiums aside each month and self-insure.
