    We've been having an issue with our pool filter, and we've had five inspectors here, and they have all given us different diagnoses, and it's been kind of a nightmare. We worked with Tracy, and she was really awesome and patient and helped us through that. It's been really great to work with her because she's helped me stay calm with all the issues with our filter. The most recent claim with Elite was getting that corrected because the pool hasn't been staying clean. Tracy helped us find some people that does pool cleaning and pool repair. We have a guy that we use now, and he replaced the sand in our filter, which was causing the issue. Now, we're doing good. It was mainly getting sand put in the filter because it was old and so the water wasn't pumping through.

    They also had to fix the vacuum. The latest people that came out removed two of the hoses, but now it's not cleaning the back of the pool as well because they removed too many hoses. They said they would come out and they just replaced them, but they didn't add new links, which I think they were supposed to. So now we have that problem where we have to go and buy hoses, and I thought we paid for that. Other than that, there are no issues.

    The only issue is Pete’s Dolphin Pool said that they would come and add two new links to the vacuum, which is what I believe was covered through the warranty. They were really great, but they haven't done that. Their pool expert said that we had too many links. Then the other expert is saying, “You need two more links.” Everyone's giving different opinions. Other than that, our experience has been great.My biggest complaint would be that when we worked with Nathan, he did not tell us about a 90- day waiting period. We knew about a 30-day waiting period but nothing about a 90-day. That was really frustrating because we just bought the house, and then that happened. We felt misled by Nathan, and he was really nice but that was frustrating.

    When I filed a claim for the water heater, Elite got somebody out here within the time they said they would. The service representative I spoke with, Tracy, was great. However, they lowballed it and went to a bottom feeder repairman. Elite needs to stop doing that. That costs them money. The first guy that came out spent all day and thought he needed a part. But he was wrong. He wasn't even close. He put the part in the second day. The second day, I was getting cold showers. But Elite took care of that. They got a better person out here. The problem was a minor adjustment that the second guy found in five minutes. I'm not happy with the amount of coverages that Elite affords though. The coverages are inadequate. For the air conditioning, at a coverage of $3,000, that would not even cover the replacement of the fan, let alone the compressor. That's gonna be thrown at the owner's problem. For the pool, it's an option you have to pay for. With that $1,000, I'm accustomed to much better coverage.

      I'm in transition from another company and I didn't want to be out stone-cold without any kind of coverage. I wanted to get something onboard, just to be on the safe side. I did Elite Home Warranty primarily for their BBB rating and the reviews that I read online. When I called, all my questions were answered. I had peace about that. In the event something should happen, I could quickly cancel the contract with no problems.

      The other plus was I could use my own person. If I knew a good electrician, I could call the claims department and they could allow me to use that person. That was really nice. At the same time, if something breaks down and I don't know anyone, the company can also back me up and provide me with someone. Elite Home Warranty also seemed to be available 24/7. I was given assurance that the claims department would always be there to respond. Hopefully, it's a good journey we're on. It was a very nice interaction so far.

      I would point out to friends why I went with Elite Home Warranty as well as the fact that they seem to be available and the fact that the reviews were great. You can't go wrong when people say something nice. Hopefully, that's what I'll go with. There's the reliability with this company. Even if they can't provide the service, they said they can give me advice.

      Elite Home is great and easy to work with. I got the home warranty for my mom's home because it's a bit older and things have a tendency of going wrong with it. I've had to submit two claims, and the first one was simple. We thought her dishwasher was broken, but it was just user error. Still, it was really easy to get somebody to come out, check on it and tell us that it was just us that weren't using it properly.

      Right now, for our second claim, we're in the process of getting my mom's pool pump replaced and the technician that we're having to deal with that has been not very communicative and slow in responding back to us. He's hard to get ahold of, but we're chalking that all up to what's happening right now. It's the beginning of the season and they're super busy, probably short-staffed, and running around. On the other hand, Tracy over at Elite has been wonderful. I'm a real estate agent, and as somebody who's always been in customer service, Tracy has been absolutely phenomenal and a delight to deal and work with. She's been a breath of fresh air within customer service. You don't get that anymore.

      They're great. They offer the best and their service is phenomenal. I just had a plumber out from them, and they sent the plumber out the same day I called. When I call, I get the same guy who did my contract, Zack. He called me back three times when the plumber was here to make sure everything went the way it's supposed to.

      Elite is a caring company. Customer service bends over backwards for the consumer. I had an issue where my faucets were not covered under my contract and would have to be repaired for $200. I did not have that kind of money. They worked with me such that they picked up half the cost and I paid just $100. I got my best friend to use them, and she's very pleased with them.

      I had a claim for the garage door opener and Elite handled it awesome. I called on a Friday night and they answered and called me back the next day. They sent somebody out to fix it and the tech was awesome. It's one of the better experiences that I've ever had. Also, props to the guy I called to get the policy. I told him I was gonna call him back but we had something come up and a month later, that guy checked back up with me.

      The people from Elite Home Warranty were responsive, they speak English, which was helpful, and there was a thorough follow-up to ensure that the issue was resolved and addressed. Prior to someone coming out, I was provided with the name of the contractor, the approximate response period, and the scope of what they would address. I had good feedback from the contractor. Everything seems to be working well. I would recommend Elite and explain that my experience has been extremely positive.

      For the most part, everything has been fine. They're really nice and very accommodating. The only negative is that getting parts coming here is really hard because we're in a rural area of Wyoming. But my rep had the best intentions for us to get this done as quickly as possible. Getting through to a rep has been super easy. It's a relief to have them in my corner.

      I’ve had Elite for two months now and I love the peace of mind that if something breaks that's covered, we can just call them and walk through the process of getting some help and not having to pay 100% cash to fix something. The person I dealt with when I bought the warranty was very nice and accommodated when I was able to talk on the phone and followed up with me. I was a little bit pressured into buying the three-year package and paying all upfront for the entire three years. And I couldn't do that. I had to do just the monthly payments. But other than that, everything was great.

      It's been good with them. When I needed something, they went beyond to make sure that it happened. I had a claim for one of the air conditioning units but I have two. They allowed the techs to work on both units and didn't have to make me pay another service charge. I also had a roofing issue and they paid for that. I've also had plumbing services when my thing was stopped up and they paid for that as well. Plus they're not sending second-rate contractors.
