What the data says about Fidelity National Home Warranty

Fidelity National Home Warranty earns a Reliability Score of 62/100 (grade C), built from BBB rating, BBB reviews and Trustpilot. Its A+ BBB rating reflects how it handles and resolves complaints, while customers rate it 1.24★ on the BBB and 1.8★ on Trustpilot, the gap between a company's complaint-handling and its everyday customer sentiment is often where the real story is.

Plans run $350-$600 per year, with a $75-$100 service fee per visit. Founded in 1974, it operates under Fidelity National Financial, and is available in 22 states. As with any home warranty, the contract's exclusions, not its headline price, usually decide whether a claim is paid, so read the sample contract before buying.
