### 3/5 — Commode

*2026-08-30, version 2.34.31*

My commode is not fixed. It was steady, but causing drippage
 from underneath it now it is not steady at all not satisfied with it at all.
I need it fixed as soon as possible because I am not satisfied and scared for it being so wobbly

### 5/5 — AHS

*2026-08-11, version 2.32.34*

Very easy to set up a service request glad I’m a customer with such a great home warranty company

### 5/5 — Eagle Air Service

*2026-08-11, version 2.32.34*

Eagle Air has gone above and beyond working with us on the AC. They were so thorough diagnosing issues with our old unit which eventually resulted in installing a new AC system. I cannot say enough good things about everyone at Eagle Air. 
AHS should hold all their service providers to the highest standard set by Eagle Air.

### 5/5 — Great Insurance

*2026-08-08, version 2.32.34*

It the most easy way to get things done in life!!

### 5/5 — Reliable

*2026-08-07, version 2.32.34*

I have been a customer of (AHS) for about 14 years. Now I have 4 properties using AHS services and have brought 5 or 6 other friends and family members on board as AHS customers and all are happy with this company.

### 5/5 — Video chat

*2026-08-06, version 2.32.34*

Excellent service for members

### 5/5 — It’s hot in here NEED AC NOW!

*2026-08-03, version 2.32.34*

It was a pleasure talking to Craig T. I have never done this before I am not very computer savvy team. He was my hero in the future. Any video chat technicians in the future will have some huge Shoes to feel. Thank you again Craig T. I have placed my service request just as you walk me thru it!It was very easy. I am extremely proud of myself with your assistance. It was a true pleasure talking to you I highly recommend anyone needing assistance as myself and family to speak with to someone just like you, Craig T. I want upper management to see this and give you a raise!!!Thank you again, AMERICAN HOME SHIELD.

### 5/5 — So Happy With AHS

*2026-08-03, version 2.31.35*

As a single mom that can fix some things and have no clue on others, AHS has given me such piece of kind. When I first purchased I had one bad service guy come out but I notified AHS and they fixed it right away and sent another company. I’ve been treated AMAZINGLY well. I highly recommend AHS! Completely satisfied. I’ve had them for about 4 years now

### 5/5 — App & Service were amazing

*2026-08-02, version 2.31.35*

App is very user friendly, LiveVideo Chat was helpful in having real time diagnosis of my issue & submitting claim was as easy as 3or4 clicks

### 5/5 — Owner

*2026-08-02, version 2.31.35*

Too soon to tell what is happening.

### 4/5 — Not real happy

*2026-08-01, version 2.31.35*

I am not real happy with the AC portion of this home warranty. We will see about the appliance side of this warranty.

### 5/5 — Tha best service

*2026-08-01, version 2.31.35*

Is a great great solution tomyour home. 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Consistent and Timely

*2026-08-01, version 2.31.35*

I’ve filed multiple service requests with (AHS) in the year that they’ve covered our new-to-us home. They’re consistently prompt to follow up, and the servicemen they assign to us are always professional. I’ve yet to have a problem require multiple service visits to diagnose. I’m a particular fan of the video call with a service expert, during which they’ll help you solve your problem in real time. I like this service because even if it can’t be solved without an in-person serviceman, the on-call video expert will still write a troubleshooting summary with possible diagnoses to help expedite the in-person service.

### 3/5 — Washer

*2026-08-01, version 2.31.35*

Not  pleased

### 5/5 — Quick response

*2026-07-31, version 2.31.35*

AHS was quick to assign someone to help.  Sometimes that company is a bit slower but most were quick.  If the problem isn’t solved someone will come back up to 30 days with no extra charge.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Most everything has a loop hole and isn’t covered.

*2026-08-30, version 2.34.31*

I’ve had (AHS) for several years on numerous houses, however the quality of service and coverage has went down drastically. Most everything I call about either isn’t covered or o have to pay additional amount for.

### 1/5 — Zero stars if I could

*2026-08-10, version 2.32.34*

Worst costumer service ever. Can’t cancel on app but can renew and be charged. 1.5 hour call wait time to try to cancel. Terrible business. Just a scam overall. 0/10 would never recommend

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2026-08-06, version 2.32.34*

This company refuses pay for anything to get you up and running.  Broken garage door spring and suddenly we need a multitude of other non important repairs totaling almost 400 dollars of things to repair this all out of pocket with the gold plan.  Waited almost 2 weeks for a repairman to show up and had to take a day off with the timeframe like the cable guy. Run away a big scam of a company!

### 1/5 — Out of country reps

*2026-08-05, version 2.32.34*

Cannot understand how a company named “American” home shield has all customer service from out of the country. 
So frustrating!

### 1/5 — Late and cheap

*2026-08-03, version 2.31.35*

They never fix anything, they bring service people over that charge me to fix things just to limp along for another month or two. The. It breaks again, they fix it enough to work, then it breaks again. I pay for the service, and the work they do, and (AHS) covers nothing.

### 1/5 — Worst ever home warranty

*2026-07-31, version 2.31.35*

Please don’t purchase this
1. When you want to cancel, you can’t immediately- they play around with you connecting to different departments without any outcome/action. Be ready to fight and call them and spend days 
2. They have very less third party coverage and they have no authority on the service providers; when complained - they just rub their hands off even though it is the rightful claim
3. They increased my $36 monthly auto-payment to $74 without informing me - when called, again horrible service

### 1/5 — do not use this company

*2026-07-28, version 2.31.35*

Got an estimate back for my claim where they say there’s $6152 worth of non covered costs that i will need to pay out of pocket for wear and tear being the reason for denial, while my policy states that wear and tear should be covered. 

Was on the phone with them for more than an hour and even talked to their escalation team and they did not seem to understand why i was asking about this discrepancy. 

I asked if they had an email i could write to showing pictures of their reasoning for denial along with my policy showing that it should be covered and they said they didn’t, but that i can use the chat feature on the app. 

Tried to do that and got a message that they are too busy and that chat is unavailable. 

Would not recommend anyone to use this company

### 1/5 — Best is Yet to come

*2026-07-21, version 2.30.33*

I’ve put in three request and nothing has been fixed yet. There seems to always be a reason why something can’t be fixed.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-07-21, version 2.30.33*

Contractors they send will find (create) a reason for service to be denied.  If you contest it they charge you another fee to send someone for a second opinion.

### 1/5 — AC unit

*2026-07-01, version 2.29.44*

I called and created a ticket on 4/3/26 for my AC. There contractor came out and said the unit needed 3 parts in which they couldn’t be found so they suggested a new unit. After at least 20 calls to AHS they never would approve a new unit so on 6/5/26 I had the unit replaced out of my own pocket hoping they would reimburse me. After I sent a certified letter they got back with me and lied and told me they approved a new unit. I never was informed of this until after I contacted them with legal threats. I am still waiting for them to pay me what they owe me!

*2026-08-30, version 2.34.31*

The app was very useful and easy to navigate.

### 5/5 — Free video call with James 10/10!!

*2026-08-26, version 2.34.31*

Such a great first impression using AHS! San Diego has been really hot, and I could tell something was off with my Ac. Within just a few minutes over video, James figured out exactly what was going on. He’s a pro—super knowledgeable and efficient. Really impressed!

### 5/5 — Dependable

### 5/5 — Great Asset to Homeowner

*2026-08-16, version 2.33.36*

I have used AHS at 2 properties now.  I have peace of mind in knowing that I will not have unexpected repairs that come when money is unavailable.  I recommend to everyone I can.

### 5/5 — We love AHS

*2026-08-15, version 2.33.36*

We have gotten great service. It has saved us so much money and given us peace of mind in our new home.

### 5/5 — Must have

*2026-08-12, version 2.32.34*

I’ve had other home warranty plans with other companies and American Home Shield is by far the best…. So good I got a plan for my home & my moms home 🏡
