First American Home Warranty Problems

[@tinabaldwin9307]

Class action lawsuit should be pursued. Im canceling them immediately.

[@brianmelton6570]

I currently and sadly contract with FAHW and have some info I would LOVE to make public and have proof of my claims! These home warranty companies are an absolute joke and I can assure you as bad as they treat the homeowners they aren't much better to their contractors and would gladly testify in a court of law against them and their practices!

[@johnlewis195]

I have the same company... I have to keep calling them to have service

Me too waiting 5 months for a dishwasher

Thank you for this video I just got a letter from first American warranty offer and was considering buying

[@christopherlinde9216]

FAHW colluded with a substandard contractor to charge me a $1000 for what the contract fully covered according to my coverage - FRAUD by definition !! Modifications should be made to these scammers... WHAT IS WRONG WITH BBB allowing these sheisters stay in business????

[@hpblack1953]

We have FAHW and they know that are sending poor quality techs from one-horse companies. It used to be the contractor would collect the deductible ‘service fee’ after having completed the job (properly done or not). Today FAHW demands the service fee up-front before they’ll assign a contractor who may or may not be skilled enough to use a screwdriver. I had another run-around session with them today regarding a Carrier split heat pump system; they were not sure they had contractors on their list for central Virginia that could work on a Carrier air-handler. I’m cancelling the ‘policy’ and having a trusted HVAC, Carrier authorized company here tomorrow. FAHW have reported annual REVENUES of only $10M-$50M. Crooks in my book. If I had cancelled this warranty at its scheduled renewal date, I’d have additional on hand to cover the repair costs from a bonafide Carrier approved HVAC contractor.

I had to pay 234 to replace a gas valve leak. Home warranty is a scam.

This is sad that these folks have to call the news to get help for bills.... i have seen this story numerous times in memphis...pitiful

[@fredstriker2042]

I'm 55, I can't think of a SINGLE company more screwed. Months to get anything done but yet they always take your money. Cancel your membership immediately if you have any sense

[@markrabwin4927]

I could not agree more. They are terrible. They even lie. I cancelled my policy via the phone and they continued to charge me. They had the audacity to say that I never called. They are crooks!!! Avoid at all costs !!!

[@Robertwatson-g8d]

American Home Sheild is a crappy company. They just take your money and won't fix anything. They should be out of business.@@markrabwin4927

[@skylorswope5183]

I paid a little over $700 for a new hot water heater cause of modifications and getting things up to code. If you have the first-class service they cover up to $250 for the permit. I didn't know that was a thing so I even had to pay for the permit for them to even be able to work on it LOL. Mind you that the hot water heater was covered by First American.

[@patvelch4882]

American home shield asked for $100, then we paid $557 to anytime plumbing. To replace the water heater.....what a suprise

[@kickingitwiththerooks]

Same! These ppl are terrible

[@rachll7904]

Total scam.. They pay SO little to the service companies that only horribly rated plumbers, HVAC, etc. will take a contract with them. Basically those who can't keep customers. We had plumbing DAMAGED by a service company they sent. They refused to help at all. If you ASK them which companies are in your area that work with them...They will NOT tell you cause they know you will look up the reviews.

[@ATWRetrievers]

Oooo This upsets me. We had them out to fix a leaking washing machine, they damaged it further and the tech made it look like it was fixed but had it set up where it was leaking out the backside of the washer where we couldn’t see it happening! We just had to rip out the entire laundry room full of mold and rot…. I called to report the technician and paid another service fee to have them come out and the tech was just out this morning. When the technician put in the work request they denied it outright.

[@cynthiaoliviasimmons-parke7332]

FAHW is HORRIBLE!! Iam looking for a new warranty company!! They truly suck!!

[@eurobeat2008]

I wish I do some research before using their service. Now I am stuck with a broken washer not knowing when it will be fix. Don't use their service.

[@user-re4gp9pc4n]

We had a similar problem, this is a horrible company, hope someone can do something to push them for a change.

[@alejandrobrozalez2787]

This company is a SCAM!!!!!! I paid them and did nothing to my house. I requested a refund and it was denied, I requested them to have the plumbing company do the job by reopening the case which was closed when nothing was done and it was denied. I talked to supervisors and the agents disrespected me and hung up on me. DO NOT GET IT!!!!!! I WATED THEM OVER 600 DOLLARS WITH THEM!!!

[@tmichele8922]

Contact BBB

[@ragingbull3406]

Damn! Just received a quote from these scam artists. Of course I wont be going thru with the contract.

[@cynthiaoliviasimmons-parke7332]

Don't do it!!

[@loquat44-40]

I just received a call from india trying sell their warranty...

[@THATGUY-vb1jf]

Lol ha ha ha the same scam as "Car Sheild."....

[@arcatacompany]

People are really stupid, don't you think if you put $60 a month to the side that you can buy a new water heater every year? The same applies with your social security your $60 a month will end up being a lot more than your social security will pay out

[@fredstriker2042]

Some can, but most people live dollar to dollar you jac***ss. It's called insurance for a reason. People do it for a lot of other things, cars, homes, de tal, eyes, health.. yourself included.

[@pghmoore]

It’s not stupid to believe that if you sign a contract that literally states that. Hence why states have opened up investigations.

[@TF856]

Lots of people have the name wrong !!!! It's a "WATER HEATER" not a "HOT WATER HEATER!" It does not heat up water that is already hot!!!

[@user-pz1ch4vj6u]

😢

[@lord1557]

Je uss. Its the Juic ess

[@hbk92701]

Looking at where she had the water heater, I can understand, her house was not set up properly and the warranty company replaces the water heater but you want to them to replace the equipment needed to properly install?
