Drain 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.

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.

3 things 3 things. Been with AHS for seven years. My warranty says the water heater is covered. Water heater broke down. 1) AHS says they won't cover it. 2) When asked if I could speak to a manager, I was told it would be in 2 to 3 business days. 3) Customer service agents do not speak good English which makes it hard to understand them. Do not use this company. They do not honor their word and you are not important enough to speak to a manager on the same day.

Customer Service Issues I have several accounts with Home Shield, at this point I have multiple issues. There is no escalation process in order to talk to a manager, there is no interdepartamental communications between them, and they do not commit to there warranty and will essientially lie. I was trying to set up A/C tune ups which are free with the Platnium Plan and was told that I needed to talk to sales because they were not included. Talk to Sales and they stated it is and they transferred me to Service. Service then says it is no longer available, I informed him that I have an email stating it was extended. He then stated that service is no longer offered in Nevada. It is frusting dealing with service when there is an issue.

Would Rate 0 if I Could This has been the worst experience I've ever had with a home warranty company. 2-10 Homebuyers Warranty is much better. Possibly a bit more expensive, but worth the cost. They sent out the wrong service technician to repair my home and sent multiple companies out to my home to fix the same problem. Then, I had to eat the cost for the mistake.The companies they contract for repairs are not flexible with their times and do not try to accommodate the customers' needs. I had to take off work several days just to use AHS contractors to make simple repairs to my home. I will never use this company again and would suggest that you do not either.
