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

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.

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.

This company is a scam This company is a scam. Any reviews that are 5 stars are fake. On 2/28 my washing machine broke. I called AHS and was assigned a service provider in less than 24 hours. After performing a "virtual assessment." AHS said it wasn't a covered repair because the washer was overstuffed. I requested a new service provider who would come to do in person assessment. After about 2 weeks they sent Sears for a second opinion. Sears representative said that the washer just needed a new timer. Sears set up an appointment to come back with the timer and repair on 4/2. They never showed. When we (AHS and myself) tried to call, the number goes to an automated line then disconnects. AHS says that they will be on touch with SEARS and then provide me a service update.....that was 28 days ago. I have called AHS everyday since then and they "escalate" my issue to several different departments with no end in sight. When I asked about the replacement of my washer they said that they can't move forward without a report from SEARS which doesn't seem to be returning their calls or emails..

Timely and professional service Timely response to service request. Kept us informed of the process, from connecting us with a provider, verifying appointment date/time, and to reminding us night before and morning of appointment. Service tech was on-time, efficient in solving the issue, and courteous. A huge time saver from doing all the research ourselves.
