      AHS sent a plumber to fix my sewer ejector pump They left sewage all around the sewage ejector pump (toilet paper) in the front yard The audacity to said sorry we dont clean that even though its a *************** Code and every other Plumber Ive ever had service my house -100% took the initiative & professional responsibility to leave the **** sanitary condition vs. T&C plumbing who left sewage in front of my residence ! Every plumber I have had , outside of ( T& C plumbing /AHS ) , has been professional and clean ! The plumber shows up in a generic van So its some cheap side company that theyre paying to do the work I did file a complaint with the **** in **********. This is where they obtain their licenses. I called them twice and said they would not be coming back and if they did come back, I would have to pay another $125 to get them to clean up the mess that they left! They hardly speak English And the 186 reviews on their actual website are from the owner- lolol - They were as unprofessional as they come- I dont believe theyre from our country and probably have someone counter signing over them with a valid California contractor license.

      Total Scam Stay Away from American Home Shield Ive been a loyal, autopay customer with ********************** for years, paying them month after month without ever making a single claim until recently. When my $500 dishwasher broke, I finally decided to use the service Ive been paying for. Big mistake.Not only did AHS refuse to cover the repair or replacement, but they also had the audacity to increase my premium and hit me with a $125 service fee. To make things worse, they tacked on another $125 charge for a microwave Ive never even had serviced. Ive called dozens of times to get this straightened out, and every time Im met with dead ends, transfers, and zero accountability.This company is a complete scam. Theyre more than happy to take your money for years, but the second you actually need them to do what you paid for, they disappear. If they wont help over something as simple and relatively inexpensive as a dishwasher, what do you think is going to happen when your HVAC, plumbing, or electrical system fails?Im done. Im not giving them another cent, and I highly recommend you stay far away unless you enjoy throwing money away for absolutely nothing in return.

      One time used and we finishing paying almost 800 dollars for a small repair!Never again I will use this company. It is hard also to repair emergency needs when you need it... you have to wait until they can do it.

      Recently, my fridge broke down and because we have a contract with AHS I decided to reach out. I admit I havent had the best experience with them and have tried to cancel multiple times but was convinced by their representatives that it was warranty I needed since it covered ALL appliances. I wanted to give them one last shot. We reached out and they sent someone to assess the fridge, however, the technician stated they couldnt do anything because it was full, even though it was not. He provided no resolution and just left. AHS sent an unreliable technician and still took their money and Ive decided they are no longer worth paying anymore. Please avoid this and other home appliance warranties, you are better off saving the money you pay to them and doing your own research to find a more reliable and reputable contractor.

      Absolutely terrible service. Weve contacted American Home Shield multiple times to repair our AC, and every single time they fix it, a new issue arises. Living in *****, where the heat is unbearable, this is more than just an inconvenienceits a health risk. Their contractors seem unqualified, and theres zero accountability. Its been a complete waste of time and money.If youre considering using AHS, dont. Youre better off investing in a more reputable company with competent technicians and real customer support. Im done with them and moving on to a provider who actually knows what theyre doing.

      People save your money , I have had this Gold protection plans for going on 7 Years at 755.00 A year X 7 years. Every Summer since I , have had this protection plan they have been to my house 12 times, for the AC which is 19 years old. plus every time you use them , you pay a 150.00 service call plus a 130 dollars per pound of freon. They band aid your appliances. Note the 12 times they have visit my home to do Ac work it’s the same problem.

      I have had American Home Shield for several years and will be canceling here shortly after the way I was treated by a supervisor after having to escalate my ticket due to being denied several times regarding a whole house fan issue. Could you imagine being hung up on by a person who you pay instead of hearing me out and listening to my concerns? Thats exactly what had happened to me as I have waited several weeks to have a very minor issue repaired. I could understand if I was being rude or irate, but me just simply explaining to the supervisor that the reason they denied my claim was incorrect. I was explaining legal terms to her when I asked for her supervisor and she said this is as far as it goes. I saw it coming and I told her not to hang up on me and a few seconds later, thats exactly what happened. I was appalled. I employee these people and to be treated like trash was unacceptable.

      The absolute worst customer ********************** experience! I have been without a washing machine for well over a month. I have repeatedly contacted them, trying to resolve my issue, and have been waiting for a week for a supervisor to call me back.
