Default Stay away from American Home Shield

So, basically it is our word against their assumptions. We are in the
hole over $2000 and are NEVER going to use this company.

This is par for the course with AHS (based on my own experiences, as
documented in this newsgroup previously, and several other stories I've
seen here).

For the record, I was pretty happy with them years ago, but of late they
do not seem to be a good deal.

The best thing to do is bank the amount of money you would spend on the
warranty each year in a household repair account.

But I do wonder: why did the guy try to charge you for 5 times the
service charge fee? If it won't be covered by AHS, that's their call,
but it should not cost you more than the service charge for him to give
an opinion. I hope you didn't pay him... unless of course he was the
independent contractor and not affiliated with AHS. I have found that
the decent contractors won't work for AHS, since AHS forces them to cut
too many corners.

Probably you are one of the 10000's, i had very bad experience with this crooked company, all they want is to pay u for years without asking for service once u ask for service they will start treat u like crap.

American Home Shiled is the most crooked company, don't buy their home warranty!!!.
Example, they will make you wait for three weeks before they even make a call on what to do about emergency issues such as water heater! Imagine without water heater for three weeks, and they dont really care about it.
Every time you call in a new person answers and you have to start over every time.
Contact me i have all the audio recorded from their customer support team it is clear how rude they are and how pathetic their customer service is.
