American Home Shield

American Home Shield is really hated by their customers. A quick check on their social media accounts shows complaint  upon complaint upon complaint. They currently have a 2.8 rating with the BBB. So is American Home Shield a reputable company to use? AHS was sued in 2007 for “engaged in a pattern and practice of failing to fulfill its contractual obligation to its customers.” AHS settled in 2008. The vendors that AHS works with raise some concerns that this is still an ongoing issue. While investigating another fake review spam network, I found a review from Sally Banks. Sally has left a majority of her reviews in Illinois and Tennessee when she wasn’t visiting Miami, Denver, or Delta Utah. I can not find any evidence to support that fact Ms. Banks is real. In fact the law firm she reviewed, exposed 879 new businesses exchange in review manipulation. The biggest offender is a sister company of American Home Shield too.

There are two Google My Business listings for AHS:

American Home Shield

American Home Shield Corporation

Vendors:

Immediate Response Plumbing whom we previously identified as having fake reviews. The are several complaints against this company for lack of service, price gouging or claims that the work was not under warranty.

Just Plumbing Services Inc has a lot of negative reviews complaining about service and rude staff. Around July 2017, the fake positive reviews started popping up. There are several reviewer that reviewed Immediate Response Plumbing as well.
