Beware, Home warranty providers scam. American Home Shield in Baton Rouge, Louisiana has left homeowners hanging after collecting premiums. In most states including Louisiana, No government agency enforces licensing or regulatory action against Home warranty providers so they do as they please. Homeowner is left with last recourse of suing at a cost of no less than $1500 to fund litigation. In Texas, Attorney general has recently nailed American Home Warranty aka American Home Shield (AHS), read about it here: http://www.instituteforlegalreform.com/component/ilr_news/30/article/I2976966584.html

I have a 3 year contract with them and over the course of the last two years they have denied everything. I assumed all home warranty companies acted this way and never pursued it further. Just today I tried to call them to report a claim and the number is disconnected. I went online and filed the claim… only to then find this article. Any one know what we can/should do about seeking a return of the premiums paid?

I have had NHW for 2 1/2 years and have had bad service with them. I contacted them first of July because my a/c unit had stopped. I called them and phone had been disconnected. Sent email to there web site and receive email from New York attorney general that they have closed them down for fraud and etc. They have been still taking monthly payments from my account last taken out was June 18, 2009. so where has the money been going to. I am filing fraud charges thru Texas, New York and at my bank.

I paid for 5 years in advance when I bought my home in April 2009. Was also promised the gift cards which were never received. Now the company’s phone says it is out of service. All claims made in the first year were denied. I am out 4 years of paid services as well as the gift cards. Hard to swallow the loss of over $2000.

(1.) I was charged for one warranty that I never received a contract for. (2.) 1st American refused to repair a furnace because they said that the furnace door was put on improperly, but their repairman was the one that put the door on at an earlier service. They said that as a result, the furnace wires caused a fire and it had to be replaced. I called another service and it was repaired in 40 minuets. (3.) NOW I am being refused service because they say my April payment is delinquent. They drew $40 from Wells Fargo on April 15 and I sent a $40 check May 11. I was told that they do not accept checks and it had been returned. IT CLEARED THE BANK.
