GBDrain line failure, Claim denied for clearly untrue reasons. After a drain line underneath our home wore out due to age American home shield decided that it was the concrete floor that caused the pipe to collapse and we were denied coverage. This was not the opinion of the plumber, but something that they decided. When we asked for a second opinion, they couldn't find another plumber in our area (of 120,000 + residents) to come and look at the issue. American Home Sheild is a complete waste of money. Unless you want to donate a monthly amount to this company for absolutely no reason, you should save your money. You get the added bonus of waiting weeks to attempt to resolve problems, that they will not cover. A massive waste of time and a significant amount of additional stress will enter your life if you buy an American Home Sheild policy and something actually goes wrong.

GBAHS provided great service AHS provided great service through local professionals. I am very satisfied with how they solved problems with either parts or like-kind brand new replacements. There were times when I would have preferred to pay for an upgrade but I understood the conditions of this service when I signed up. Regardless, I have no complaints in the several times we used them as they definitely lived up to their commitments in all cases. I can definitely recommend AHS as a very good home appliance insurance company.

GBFalse 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.

GBThe 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.

GBFalse advertising and promises from AHS! I read pretty good reviews with AHS and left my old home warranty company as they were not very helpful with previous claims to sign up with AHS. I signed up with AHS in early March. This year, it has been pretty cool and cold until now in April when it is getting warmer. I turned my A/C on recently and discovered that it was not throwing cold air. Their A/C repair guy came to check unit and said it was secondary to leak of condenser coil and called it a "pre-existent condition." How can it be pre-existent if it did not start working until now. AHS did not want to put their part even though the contract clearly says it covers corrosion and condenser leakages. They are complete scam artists! I will be cancelling now and looking for a more honest company. Thanks for nothing AHS!
