State Farm Car Insurance review
I have been a happy State Farm customer since 2001 (18 yrs). While rates fluctuate, we've never strayed. I have shopped on more than one occasion, but never made a switch. My agent and staff know me and are always responsive and helpful.
I was a bit frustrated a few years back when my daughter was in a very minor accident and State Farm just paid the claim to a fraud without any questions. Our rates went up just a bit, but that was to be expected.
Overall, I am very happy and have no plans to change!
State Farm Car Insurance review
Been insured with State Farm for over 27 years on homes and autos. I moved from Indiana to Florida almost 3 yrs ago...my rates have increased 5-10% every 6 months since moving to Florida, whereas I barely had even a $3 increase each YEAR, if any at all on the same vehicle, while living in Indiana. I believe agents, and their greediness, have A LOT to do with any insurance experience. I used the roadside assistance coverage for the first time in those 27 yrs and the experience was painless...I’ll never change another tire myself again, as the cost of coverage is pennies!
State Farm Car Insurance review
We have had State Farm bundling everything since we were married 50 years ago. I think this insurance is as good as your agent. A good agent is an advocate for the client. I have never seen my current agent but she had a very competent & customer savvy front person. Since that person left after about 10 years, I am very disappointed. Nobody reviews my insurance or finds the discounts for us. I have to initiate and even when they are applied the rates still increase. I am thinking of looking at Shelter Insurance where the girl who was so customer friendly went. How often are the agents claiming credit that their staff deserves?
