We signed up for their online billing with direct deposit into our account. We turn in invoices online by noon every Tuesday and money is in the bank 3 days later. We do have to take a 2% discount to do this. So far they pay like a slot. Decent work  but sometimes they make decisions as to repairing items for too much money? But if they send the work order we complete and bill out

That sounds pretty good there, they wanted to pay us in 90 days and few times it took them 180 before we cut them off....maybe they have cleaned up thier act.

AHS has a good amount of work to send over,  so its good to keep all our techs busy.
   Relative to other insurance companies,  they are the most reliable in terms of payments, answering their phones, sending parts, very professional etc.
 
 Im wondering how their new Flex plans are going to pay out in 2009.   Its crazy that compressor replacement is covered when the failure is a result of a filthy condensor (lack of maintenance),   especially when the contract is two or three months old :shock:   but so far everything has been fine with the new plan..

The only downfall is that parts are getting more expensive every day,  gas has gone through the roof,   prices everywhere are going up,  but there is no room to increase prices at home shield.    But that's the trend almost everywhere so ya can't blame em!

I have heard of some warranty companies buying back the warranties and even the appliances when they can not get any one in the area to work on them.

Hi AJ, good to see you....when we did NEW (National Electronics Warranty) if the repair was as much or more than the original cost of the appliance NEW would buy it out.  If NEW could not get anyone to service something out in say the sticks, they would do an exchange (same as buying out). If a repair was going to take more than a set time, depending on what it was, they would buy it out, so yes, I would imagine this might hold true for all warranty companies?  Each company would most likely have different policies on this.

Yeah there are definately occations when we have to just flat out replace an appliance if I can't track someone down to work on them.  Not too often to we actually buy out the contract though.  I just had to replace someones Miele Dishwasher due to no tecs for 200 miles in any direction that were willing to look at if for me.  The sad part is im pretty sure it just needed a new door seal.  Oh well though definately made the customer's day LOL.
