We are 100% satisfied with Old Republic. In the six years we’ve been with them, they’ve come out for a heater that wasn't working, we’ve had air conditioning go out and they were here promptly, they were just here for a leak under our mobile home, and they're coming out on Wednesday to fix my refrigerator. So, they’ve been quick on getting things done, they've all been very nice people, and customer service has been good and helpful all the time.
Hi, Marie. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it! ~Aaron C.

I've had Old Republic for five years and my experience with them was average. It's nothing spectacularly great or incredibly horrible. It's in the middle of the scale.
My recent claim was for plumbing. They came in, took a look at the toilet, and fixed it. They repaired it in one day. But I also had an air conditioning issue before that needed to be fixed and I couldn't get anybody out to fix it. I actually had to call out a person myself and pay for it because Old Republic wasn't getting back to me fast enough.
They could upgrade by having more people available to answer calls so that the customers can talk to somebody when they call versus having a recording that sends you in a loop. They can be a little bit more diligent in making sure their customers are happy because their customers pay quite a bit of money to be part of the program.

I love Old Republic. When I purchased this house seven years ago, I told the real estate lady I had to have a home insurance and she hooked me up with Old Republic. On the second year, I upgraded with them and I've been with them since that time because service is Type A. Any time I call in, 24 hours, somebody is being sent. Usually, I reach out over the phone for claims and lately, it takes a lot for them to answer, but I'm able to reach them.

When we bought the home, it already had Old Republic as the warranty so we kept it. But now I am looking around for other warranty companies. It has not been easy to file claims. We normally call in. Now, you leave whatever problem you have on a recorded line and they respond.

We received Old Republic Home Protection when we purchased our house about a year ago and the agent bought a plan for us. I’ve had to file claims for plumbing and the AC. The plumbing issues were a little confusing at first and it took a while. But finally, everything was taken care of, and everything else seems all right.

Old republic was the home warranty that was given to us. I usually submit my request over the phone and our most recent claim was for a leak under our sink. I called on Friday and they came on Monday. He did the repair, but it didn’t fix the issue. This was my first experience with this one. I feel like it’s wishy-washy through Old Republic.

I've been with Old Republic for 10 years. The customer service has been fine. It's just the wait time when you're calling. Sometimes I've been on hold for 30 minutes or more before I got to customer service. When I do get someone, the interaction is good.
Some of the technicians have been trash. We've had a few plumbing issues at our house and technicians have come out not really assessing the situation and not knowing what was going on. They didn't do any work, but you still have to pay the fee.
I've put in three tickets for the same issue and it hasn't been resolved yet. There have been three plumbing companies that have come out. The first time, they did something, but they did not complete the full issue. The second time, I don't even think the guy looked. He just told us to cover the drains up and he left. He seemed like he was in a hurry when I was trying to talk to him about it.
The last company that was sent out said they had to order parts. So, we're waiting and it's been two to three days since. He said the part was coming in the next day, but I haven't heard from him in two days since he told me that. It seems like they are going to do the work, but they just haven't done the work yet.
So I don't have an issue with Old Republic itself. It's just the wait time some of the companies that they're contracted with are not the best companies. I did refer my mother-in-law when I told her we hadn't had any issues. They have eventually worked with us or repaired everything that we've called about.

The service providers sent out by Old Republic are horrible. I had put in a request for them to come and check my electricity. To this day, I don't know exactly know what is going on. Either the air conditioning, electricity, or the wiring in the house, or that old box that's out there that controls everything. I never got any service for the electricity because they couldn't get anybody, so they told me to look.
I didn't know anybody. I talked to some people and they would recommend somebody. But ld Republic requires company name and all that stuff. And these people, they just work on electricity. Finally, that request, they said that they couldn't send somebody for electricity. It was up to me to look and try to find somebody.
Finally, I got somebody from GE that would come in and check my electricity. They checked and told me I needed a box outside that controls the whole house thing. And Old Republic said that would not be covered because they did not send somebody out here to check it themselves. That was my first problem.
Old Republic did send somebody for my air conditioning. I told them what was happening with my air conditioning and they sent somebody. My AC was shooting black dirt, so he came and checked. The only thing he checked was the pipe hat’s supposed to drip water. He said that was clogged up. He flushed it and cleaned it out. He did tell me my coils either needed to really be cleaned or get new ones. And I asked, "Does the company pay for that?" He told me, no, they don't pay for it. I was expecting him to open that box on the top to check where the water was coming from, and to check to see if there was a problem somewhere. He didn't do that. I expected for him to run a camera into the air ducts to see if I had a leak. He didn't do that.
He didn't even step outside to look to see if the unit had a problem. He didn't check the wires out there to see if there was a problem and that's why my lights were blinking, none of that. So, I was not impressed. I expected a whole lot more than what I got. I didn't care for the man Old Republic sent because he didn't check anything except for my coils. I'm glad he did that, but I did cancel the service with Old Republic.

We used Old Republic for our first service appointment for our HVAC system. The guy was absolutely great. I never got any kind of invoice from Old Republic, though. I had to call them to see..
The guy was very unprofessional and took the payment, though, but he didn't let me know where to go on my Old Republic web login to find the invoice. And when I do go to my web login, Old Republic can't find my property address, so I can't even look up services that I've had in the past. It doesn't even seem like I could have paid it online, so I'm not really sure what's going on with that.
But in general, the service guy was great and he fixed our issue. We’ve only had Old Republic for a few months. With the hot summer months coming, we just started turning on our AC. And it wasn't working at all, so he came out and fixed it right away. When I called in for the service, I did not get to speak to someone. It was all automated, which I did not like. I would have preferred to talk to somebody to let them know my issue. They did get to it within about a week. I would have had liked it gotten addressed a little quicker.
I appreciate Old Republic sending a decent person out to get the work done. It got fixed. It's a reasonable price. I just feel like the process is just too automated.

It was all right. In a nutshell, our dishwasher wasn’t working properly. They sent an appliance person out, and he determined the water wasn’t hot enough. Then we had to get a second vendor and pay another $100 copay.
The second vendor, who was a plumber, came out and increased the heat on the water heater. So, it ended up being two charges and two trips instead of one, but the problem was resolved.
When I contacted Old Republic, the call was short with very little waiting. I spoke to someone, and they said they would contact a vendor who would reach out to me to set up an appointment. The first time we called, the representative said they would send an email or text with the name of the company.
That vendor was supposed to contact me, but a whole week went by, and I had to call the company several times. Then I got a text saying they had reassigned it to a different vendor. I wasn’t very happy about that. But as far as the warranty taking my call and assigning a vendor, that part was good.

I've had Old Republic for about 18 years. I've had good luck with them. Well, service is one of the best things about them. They come right away when I have a problem and fix it. They're really on the ball. So I've never had a problem with them.
Their people, Tony and Hawthone, are great. Tony's been coming probably for that many years. And Hawthorne was the first one that came about two weeks ago to fix the air condition unit.
I've told several of my friends about it. I don't know if they ever went with it or not because I haven't heard back from them. But they asked me who I had and I told them so. I think a couple of them were in Baton Rouge, and they said they didn't cover Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

The warranty co reassigned me to Graffi hvac since the previous contractor Optimum LLC did nothing to diagnose the issue. Crappy company and should not have been contracted by Old Republic in the first place. After numerous complaints they finally reassigned me to Graffi who is very wonderful to work with. Still waiting for parts to arrive. Hopefully it gets installed without problem since we have other issues on another a/c unit. I’m not sure why a reputable company would not screen their contractors to weed out problematic contractors. I intend to keep them as long as they honor their responsibility to provide good and honest services to their clients.

The company you chose to respond was located in Florence Az. I live in Oracle Az. They were prompt in calling, I told him that I flipped the breaker and it worked again. It sounded like I needed a new condenser. It was a Friday on Memorial Day weekend and due to his location it would not have made sense to come all this way, agreed by both but he was willing! He said to call if it happened again. I then discovered it was still under manufacturer's warranty so I used the company that installed it and it was covered. My tip is to be better at finding businesses that are in the area as there are abundant heating and cooling companies in the greater Tucson area much closer than Florence.

As we have been loyal customers for years with several different property accounts, our recent experience with selling a property and cancelling its account has solicited an unprofessional response. I asked for a copy of my policy and was promptly given a copy by a different section of your organization. Two responses for this communication: first, we are not understanding the fact that we are not receiving a refund, as there is no verbage in our policy that applies to this instance, and second, we are speechless as to the lack of professionalism by your staffer who did not answer our inquiries about "why" we were not receiving a refund.
As I reviewed this policy, the no refund rule that Anthony ** <**> articulated in his emails below did not outline nor list the rule of days used and services used to reflect as a debit toward the annual policy fees. In the past we have received refunds for the pro-rated days used against the total annual fees we paid for the policy.
So we have promptly canceled, over a month ago, another of our property policies because of these issues. To date we have yet to receive a response to that second canceled property account, and it has disappeared from our login. Absolutely horrible. These are childish and lack professional responses to what should be the best customer experience. Old Republic Home Protection sucks!

Old Republic was recommended through a realtor. We had some issues with the HVAC system. They came out and said there was a leak. They refilled it with Freon but then we had another leak. They came out, refilled it with Freon, and that’s when I started a request. They sent another person out. Then I never heard back from anybody I called. Old Republic said they’re gonna get in contact with the technician that was out there. He never responded to Old Republic or me. So, I called again and got a different technician out. He went and looked at it. He filled it up with Freon, said it was definitely a leak and recommended a couple things be replaced. And then I never heard back again. I had to pay a $100 service call every time they came out and it’s 250 bucks to get Freon loaded up. So, I was paying for almost half of the service call.
I called Old Republic again as I was getting a little frustrated. I told them that it seemed like there was an actual problem with the HVAC system and I didn’t want to keep band-aiding it. I asked if we could have it fixed. So finally, they sent the technician back again to take pictures of everything and put together an estimate of what it was going to take to fix. I have to pay a portion of it which I’m assuming would be between 10% and 20% of the total repairs.
Right now, it seems like they’re just going to replace the entire unit. I’m pretty excited to get a new unit in the house instead of having something that’s constantly breaking and never know when you’re going to have heat or when you’re going to have AC.

I am the property manager for a guy who owns an Old Republic Home policy for over 10 years, and that was how I heard about them. Their customer service is average at best because it is not really a person, it is an automated call. I always setup a request on the phone, and sometimes it can be frustrating because it does not understand what I am trying to say. If I could talk to somebody, I can be on the phone for 5 minutes versus 25 minutes.
Still, their contractors are always honest, straightforward and very knowledgeable. The last guy did not even charge us anything because he said that there was not much he could do about the issue, and I appreciated that. He could have easily made something up and charged us like some do. Overall, my experience has been good, and they have a fair price. Just be prepared to be on a call for a little while because of the automated thing.

We’ve been extremely disappointed with Old Republic Home Protection due to a poor experience with a contractor they required us to use In June 2022, we filed a claim when our garage door springs broke. Old Republic sent Citywide Garage Door Services to complete the repair. We paid our deductible and the repair was done. We thought that was the end of it.
Fast forward to March 2025, and the springs failed again. After having a trusted and competent garage door technician evaluate the issue, we learned that the original contractor had installed the wrong size springs, which not only caused them to wear out prematurely but also led to our garage door opener failing well before its expected lifespan. To make matters worse, when we attempted to contact Citywide Garage Door, we found that the company is no longer in business. The business that now answers their phone number confirmed they simply acquired the number and are not responsible for any past work or warranties.
Old Republic chose this contractor, and yet we are now stuck with expensive repairs due to faulty workmanship — with no accountability from either the contractor or Old Republic. We trusted that Old Republic would stand behind their service network, but that has clearly not been the case. If you’re considering a home warranty with Old Republic, be aware that you may be left on your own if a contractor does poor work and disappears. Very disappointing experience overall.

I heard about Old Republic Home Protection through our real estate agent, and it was being offered as part of our home purchase. I used their online service and scheduled a visit. The contractor who came out had to make three separate visits. They first diagnosed it, then they showed up. It was the wrong part. Then they showed up the third time and finally fixed it. This was my first experience with them. I have had other warranty companies, and Old Republic is good.

Old Republic Home Protect is a good company, and I would refer them. However, it was difficult to file a claim for my refrigerator. I had to go through a person, then they sent an appliance technician out 14 times to fix the seals which were in a bad condition. Every time they came, then the seals failed again. I had to wait, and then take the food out.
Then they couldn't take the refrigerator out. It was a lot and took so long. It was a bad experience, but they ended up getting me a refrigerator. They have the highest yearly rate and the service call fee is substantially higher than some of the quotes that I've gotten.

Old Republic was recommended to the property owner and the property manager on the accounts by their Realtor. But it's been fifty-fifty with them. Property owners that I work with have multiple homes so I have a wide range of experiences. On the positive side, there are times when the AC has gone out and people who came replaced and fixed them with no issue, and I appreciate that. I've also had really good representatives who are proactive and go and call the technician out. That's the other half.
My latest experience has not been a good one and right now, I'm on that side. There are times when things are technically not covered. I know certain things are not covered, but there are a few times when it seems ridiculous. They seem like simple fixes and these should be covered based on the amount of the repair because I already spent the deduction, and the fact that the deduction went up quite a bit from last time. It was originally $85 but now it's $110.
I've had one or two experiences when they call out technicians who are not the best people to work with. They are not proactive with calling or they just don't know what they're doing. It wasn't pleasant. They didn't seem like they understood what the issue was. I don't know how they source their technicians but some of them don't seem capable of doing the job. Overall, consider the overall state of your home. If it's relatively in good shape, I wouldn't recommend spending the initial cost plus all the costs of the deductions. If some things are slightly older and might need repairs, I probably will recommend Old Republic.

Honestly, the communication from Old Republic is terrible, but I will say the home warranty itself is very convenient. Every time I've requested a service, I never get a call from them or the people they facilitate the service to. I’ve submitted claims and gone four days without any kind of correspondence regarding who’s doing the service or if it's even being taken care of. I can go online and see that it’s all being taken care of, but both times I’ve had to be the one to reach out to find out.
One of my claims was when my water heater was leaking. Luckily, it’s on a slab, so the leak wasn't getting into the drywall or carpet, but it still took almost seven days to deal with. On the fifth day, I had to call and ask who the plumber was that they were sending out, and they just told me I could call the plumber directly if I wanted to. It could have been a lot worse, but luckily it wasn't.
The problems are solved, so I can’t complain about the quality. Once they actually showed up, both technicians were decent individuals and they were great. They got the job done in a timely manner and Old Republic deals with decent providers, but the communication just isn't there. The service definitely needs improvement. I’m firm on communication. All they have to do is inform me. I’ll wait four days because I’m assuming they've done their job, but having to reach out myself both times was pushing it.

Not bad but not great. The annual premium and the service call fees increase each year. Customer service is helpful but slow. Their selected contractors never contact me in a timely fashion. Nothing can get approved after 5 p.m. or over the weekend. So, when it’s 115 degrees outside, and the AC is broken, it takes literally days of torture before any reasonable solution. It took a week to get the AC fixed last time. Today, for example I finally had to reach out to the contractor they selected for an air conditioning issue. It was the contractor that told me that they sent the order back because they were not able to service my property type since the unit is on the room. I still have not heard from Old Republic about this discrepancy. I plan to shop around the next time the policy is set to expire.

Old republic is in principle a good idea, but the process of getting a service tech from their pool is excruciating, especially given the usual response time. Getting someone to answer your call means a one hour wait at times, although the web request is effective sometimes (hard to explain what is wrong and not conveyed to service people). Also, one is never sure if the issue is covered or not after you have spent the service call fee which is now over $100. The other issue is the low quality of the service people. I have had them outright lie about what is needed, including claiming they have to cut up things to fix a leaky faucet vs changing the cartridge which I ended up doing in one case. The techs are not very good, although some are real gems.

Ultimately I’ve been very happy with my warranty as it’s been very well received and needed. My main issue is the lack of contractors in my area, which has caused having to have additional contractors come out for the same work. The other issue is ORHP really needs to look at the reviews contractors have online and kick ones with awful reviews to the curb. Because they’ve definitely demonstrated what the reviews indicate. While ORHP has paid for repairs, some of the repairs boggle my mind. In that they’d rather approve and $800 repair in a microwave that’s 15 years old instead of investigating the cost of a new one of only $225! Why they would even consider paying to repair one of that many years; especially, when they have to pay extra travel expenses for the distance really blows my mind.
Seriously if they want to waste that much money, I’d rather receive the $800 and go get my own appliance and have it installed. With that amount I could have also replaced my oven and microwave on $800. I have no clue how much they paid for someone to install my ceiling fans because they had someone from Birmingham install them which is an hour away. But I’m afraid to ask after the microwave issue.
My last issue is there’s NO excuse having to wait on the phone for an hour or hour and a 1/2! It’s not just the customer but also the repairman. Seriously my repairman installed 2 ceiling fans and he was on hold for the entirety of the repair! That’s completely unprofessional and unacceptable. Either hire more phone personnel or have a way to email you or put you in line for a return phone call. NOBODY should ever have to be in hold that long hence you call every time!. When it comes to paying according to their outlaid statements I say they’re dependable. Just the other issues I think are a waste of money or poor with customer service.

My previous warranty allowed maintenance for a fee and would call to schedule it. Old Republic offered something similar for $25, but you have to call and schedule it yourself by a certain date. When I tried to schedule it, I was told I would also need to pay a $110 service call fee. Since I have two units, that would have been $220. I didn’t understand the structure of the fees, so I removed the maintenance option.
Previously, one of my AC pans rusted out. I had been told it would be covered, so I waited. When it finally rusted through, a shut-off unit shorted out and I ended up with water damage in my walls. I was later told that pans are not covered. I probably should have replaced it earlier instead of waiting.

The lady then said may be your weight broke the toilet and Old Republic only fix and repair normal wear and tear and therefore, here is another reason to reject the fix request because you are obese. I was speechless. I am at my retirement age, 210 lbs and because of my height I am at range of borderline obese. I think any toilet can support 210 lbs of weight. Using any excuse, especially my weight, to reject a legitimate fix request is just beyond comprehension. As of this moment, I have no working bathroom.

Our Realtor set Old Republic up when we purchased our home. We have it for 10 months now. It’s been fairly easy to file for claims. We make a phone call or go online. I went online with my phone and it was easier to make a phone call. We've had a couple of claims and we received the name and time the contractors are coming over the phone.
The very first claim we filed was within days of taking possession of the house. The former owners rented it back from us for two months and left us with water damage and leak coming out of the ceiling that they had identified as HVAC leak.
So we called and said we have an HVAC problem and the first vendor who came out was very abrupt. It ended up not being an HVAC leak. He was here for five minutes and said it was a plumbing issue. He left us on a Saturday morning of a holiday weekend with a leaking pipe and no recourse. And he didn't speak a lot of English. So we had to call back to the office and didn't find out until after the holiday what the issue was and they then sent a plumbing subcontractor, a few days later.
For another claim, a vendor showed up for the pinhole leaks in a copper pipe twice. He was on time and quickly fixed the issue at hand without any major problems. The first time it happened, it took a week to be fixed. The second time, it was a couple of days.
It's very easy to get a repairman out here and it's great peace of mind knowing that, when random things go wrong, help is just phone call away. And I think that first interaction was just an anomaly. So we’re really happy with Old Republic. The company is very responsive, easy to work with, provides good workers to come and fix whatever problems come up.

My wife is the one who usually meets with the technicians from Old Republic. Recently, she had trouble with the washer because it wouldn’t put out cold water. The tech who came out wasn't able to fix it, so my wife let Old Republic know and they sent out somebody else.
Old Republic charges $100 every time they send somebody out, and that’s not very good. Most of the things they came for, I could do for $100. Why should I have a warranty if I'm gonna pay every time anyway? I’ve had home warranties before that didn’t charge that fee. One time, I had them come out and had to cancel because I had to leave. I canceled it, and they charged me $100 anyway. I’ve probably spent $500 or $600 in fees when I could have had the work done for that price.

We were looking for this kind of policy when we first bought our house. It may have been part of the sale, maybe the sellers or the Realtor set it up. It’s been a few years, so we decided to stick with it after the first year.
The representative has been nice. Everything else has been a positive experience, but I’ve had issues with some policies that didn’t seem fair. At some point, the details of a problem with our refrigerator were altered, whether by mistake or not, I don’t know. Because of that, even if we upgrade to a higher level of service, they won’t look at the refrigerator. And there’s been an unwillingness or inability to correct it.

I took the house to put my employees in, and Old Republic was offered it to me at the closing. But I’ve had a couple of issues where I bought the top-of-the-line that they could do on the house, and then they come out. I had a leak stopped up, and they said they couldn’t do anything with it. I took my own employees, and they were able to unstop it. No problem. The drains were.
They just said they put their high-pressure deal in there and nothing would work. There was deal given, and I called them back. I said, “Look, I got the deal out. Would you please come back and just check it? Make sure there are no leaks under the house.” He said, “Well, I’ll have to call the warranty company.” He said, “Sometime they don’t want me to spend that money to put a scope down there.” I said, “Well, call them.” But I have never heard from them again.
And there was one plumbing problem upstairs, and they had to cut a hole in the wall behind the cabinet. And I said, “Well, do what you got to do.” And they got that cleared out. And then I had a septic tank that collapsed in. But then I read the warranty saying that they don’t cover septic tanks. I said, “Well, they told me they covered everything in the wall, outside, anything that was hidden damage.” But then when I looked at the policy, sure enough, there was an exclusion for septic tanks. So, I can’t blame them on that.
I own a business, and I wasn’t looking for any minute type stuff. I was looking for major components, like the air conditioner, a short in electrical wires in the house or something like that when I bought the house. Stuff that I could not fix.
Make sure you read the policy because sometimes you’re not getting everything you thought you were getting. I took it off the realtor that they would cover everything, and I bought it strictly for the stuff that did happen. When I bought the premium package, I thought it should include those. There was a refrigerator that went out, which they should have paid for, but I didn’t even call them to claim it because that wasn’t what I bought the policy for. Like any other insurance policy, if you need it, then it is a good investment.

I had my double oven repaired after it caught on fire at the top. I called Old Republic and the technicians who came replaced an element. About a year later, it did the same thing again. When I called them, the guy said it didn’t catch on fire this time, so the warranty wouldn’t pay for it.
I had to argue with them, and they still wouldn’t pay for it. I kept calling and calling, but I’m in my 80s and eventually got tired of trying to get them to fix it. My grandson helped me get a new oven, which cost almost $4,000.
Sometimes they pay for it, and sometimes they don’t. Recently, they did come out to fix the water regulator after Edison gave me a free electric hot water heater. Old Republic took care of installing that.
Old Republic sends out people who often don’t know what they’re doing. One time, a contractor came out to fix my toilet. Instead of just replacing the toilet stool with a $200 one, he decided to rebuild it completely. He took it all apart, and it took about six hours. He clearly didn’t know what he was doing and even had to call his wife for help.
They send out cheap people, and they’re working for Old Republic, not for you. Sometimes they’re good, and sometimes they’re not. Even so, I’ve been with them for almost 13 years. I never stopped, never went to another warranty company, and I’ve kept them anyway.

It was 100-something degrees here, and it took them two months to fix our air conditioner. It wasn't the contractor. It was the home warranty. They said that it had to go through proper channels and proper commands. What I like most is that it was easy to make the claim. What I like the least is the time frame. They told me that for it to get approved, it could take 7 to 10 days. But they don't approve of anything immediately. It's worth it.

Like when my central air and water heater went out, I didn’t know I had to pay all that money upfront for them to put those in. I thought all that was covered there. And they wouldn’t allow me to upgrade because they said that my account was ready to expire.
I also had an issue with my hood and stove. And Old Republic got me a new hood and stove, but I had to go outside to get it put in because the kid who did it didn’t know how to put both of them in. And I had to get a custom-made countertop to fit the stove that they sent me.
And submitting a claim over the phone with Old Republic doesn’t take long. Any time I have a problem, I call. The only problem I have is getting whoever is gonna do the work. So, Old Republic will give me the person who's gonna do it, but sometimes it takes them a minute to call me. And then when I call them, they try to say that they can’t get out.
One guy who was supposed to fix my plug took him so long to come out. And then when he put it in to get his payment, my bank called me and verified the payment for Old Republic.” And I had to tell him that it was right. And he said that that was a long time.

He has actually been out three times since then. He came out and repaired it twice for two different things, and it still did the same thing. They told me that he couldn't fix it anymore. And they gave us a budget to buy a new refrigerator.

Everything worked out great with our claim. Filing it was really easy over the phone. We were given the company name of the contractor that was gonna be showing up. We were told that we were gonna be given a phone call by the contractor, which happened, and everything went smoothly after that.
We had a leak in our water heater. When they came out the first time, it wasn't leaking so they couldn't determine where it was coming from, so we had to wait an additional week until it started leaking again. We reached back out to Old Republic. Then the contractor reached out to us and came out that following Monday, and they were able to locate the issue. Due to the circumstance, it was a lot longer than I anticipated, but I understand the reasoning why.
Everything was treated accordingly. We have peace of mind that if something were to go wrong with the home, someone can come out and address the issue. It's a 5-year old home, but you never know. I would recommend Old Republic to a neighbor.

I've used Old Republic already, but I found that really disappointing because I just got into a new home and my dishwasher stopped working after using it for the second time. I used my warranty that I had through the Old Republic and the guy came out and found that the air gap was clogged, so he just unclogged it. I was a little mad I had to pay 100 bucks for just for a minute's worth of work, but it's been working great. Overall, it was a good experience so, but I'll wait and see for future issues.

I had Old Republic send a technician because my fan kept coming on and I didn't know if it was a thermostat problem or a hardware problem in the attic.
When the guy came over, he was nice. He looked at the thermostat and said they were fine. He went up in the attic and found that the unit that I have for the upstairs has a specific thing built into it. It has a special thing attached to it that automatically turns the fan on whenever it wants and I have no control over it. It's built into the system. He also told me that this will have a minimal effect on my electricity bill.
I don't know if his diagnosis was right. All I know is that I paid $90 for you guys to come out and tell me that. I never even heard of something like that before. So I don't know if what he's telling me is accurate or not. I have not called Old Republic back about that yet because I am waiting to see my electricity bill and if it affected.

The Old Republic rep, Janelle, was amazing. She just sold the product so well. I've already filed a claim and they came out and fixed my sump pump right away. But my microwave has still been broken for a month and a half and there has been no follow-up. I still would refer everybody to Old Republic.

My experience with Old republic has been horrible. They owe me money. They're a rip-off and con artists. They're scammers. They owe me at least $200, plus my time and emotional well-being from what they put me through.
They put me on hold for two hours. They'll pretend they're gonna get a supervisor. And then they get another person. They put you back in the queue for a longer hold. Then they supposedly send out people. And they're all awful, low-rated technicians. And they all say no. I wouldn't recommend them to my worst enemy.
A company came out for the toilet but they didn't do a repair. Old Republic sends out bad, horrible people, or they say they're going to, and then they don't. They send someone else. They won't make it right. They say in their advertising, “We won't leave you high and dry.” They left me high and dry.
They told me $200. The guy called me and told me he would refund all my money. Then he just said, “Well, I'm gonna refund you the $60, not the other amount.” And then that took forever. I'm still trying to find out what they're gonna do about the $200, but I think they won't do anything.
The stove claim, they denied. But then they say, “Well, let me send someone else out.” And then even after they told me they were canceling it, they sent someone. Then they were gonna send another person. And then they canceled that on text. They have bad communication. it’s awful. And then when I responded in kind in how they were treating me, they blamed me and were abusive to me.
I'm flabbergasted by the whole thing. I want my $200 back. I can never get the anguish they caused me and caused me health issues because of this. And I was doing this for peace of mind and got nothing but headaches and horrible stuff. They blocked me because I complained and because I told them, “I'm not tolerating this.” They just blocked me.

Old Republic is a great service. We've purchased rental properties before, and we were given the option for the new home buyer protection plan and they offered us three. We looked at the policies, and we chose Old Republic for two reasons. One, the price is competitive and well worth the service. And two, we had a great experience with them before.
My tenant called and said the water heater went out. I called Old Republic, left a message, and the agent called me back within 30 minutes. She gave me the name of the contractor, I called them and they called me back right away. The service tech came out first thing Monday morning, said he’d be there at 9:00 AM. At 9:05, he was there. He was very responsive. He noticed that something else was wrong with the connection and fixed that. So not only was the representative great, but the plumbing company that they assigned was good too, so we're very happy. My tenant said it works perfectly and she’s very happy. I have had a number of claims and every time we've called Old Republic, they've been awesome.

I found Old Republic through my Realtor and it’s been good. I just recently had them come out to check my refrigerator because my freezer wasn't working and it wasn't getting the food cold. It turned out one of the little shelf thingies that’s there was put on backwards, so the door wasn't closing completely. But it’s working now.

Old Republic replaced my water heater. To submit the claim, I went through an automated system. And they give me the contractor’s name and number. They said, “They'll call you, but here's their phone number.” And it worked out great because they provided excellent service. Everything is functioning real good now.

Old Republic provided excellent service. The automated system worked well and the follow-up was thorough. The technician was dispatched within a couple of days, which I thought was great. The contractor determined that the pool pump needed a new filter, and so he worked diligently to get that repaired. The response was very quick and they did everything right.

My wife took care of getting Old Republic Home Protection, and I think we'd had them when we were in California. Over the seven years, we've had two electricians, the garage door guy, and a couple of plumbers come out, and it’s always been very easy and thorough. My wife sets up the service with a phone call to a representative. As for the price, it is expensive, but not as expensive as dealing with other people would have been. We have recommended Old Republic to several friends.

When we bought the house, our realtor connected us with Old Republic.

It's peace of mind having Old Republic. I've been a property manager for our own properties, without having the service plan, and the out of pocket can be great. And I understand that I'm paying a fee every month, but so far, I've had a 100% or more return on investment on three properties. So, I'm very pleased with Old Republic. We had a plumbing claim in Sun City, and the property was empty. We told them it was a rental. They asked if anybody was actually living there at the time and if we needed immediate care. We said no and they gave us an appointment the following Wednesday. Otherwise, it would have been at night, and we weren't even sure we could get service because it was already midday. My husband met the plumber at the rental and he did the service. I haven't had any complaints about any of the contractors. Last year, we had an AC issue at my son's house. The guy who came out said it would have cost him over $500 if he didn’t have a home warranty. He only paid $75. It was really easy to log it in and request the service. They called, asked questions and then they scheduled it, and I could see the schedule online. I could see where my payment was gonna be charged online, when the service was provided the next day, the payment was charged to my card online. It was almost seamless.
The tenant who lived in Sun City bought his own house in Sun City, and I told him I like Old Republic because they seem fair. Everything is upfront, the portal is easy to use, and the service is good. They use local service providers and if you find that you just wanna call a plumber who doesn't qualify under the home warranty 'cause some things don't, there are limits like every warranty program, then, at least, you know who you can call for service and know that they're gonna do a good job.
