    Total Disappointment
    Contact and conversation prior to completing the deal are great. I personally feel insulted by the lack of cooperation after requesting a complete outline and explanation for my completely overcharged policy. I know for a fact that my driving and claims history is exceptional as I am a former state trooper and US Air Marshal. I am currently paying more with one vehicle insured than I previously paid for two. I have yet to receive the phone call as requested to explain the high rates given my professional background and history. To say I am frustrated with MEEMIC (AAA) is grossly understated.

    I think they cost too much. I added my son's vehicle to our policy, and they raised the 6-month cost of not only my vehicle but also my wife's. Our son's was quoted in July at $963.00. Between our 4-25 to 10-25 and the 10-25 to 4-26 policy periods, our 6-month policy went up $236.00 plus his $963.00. Our cost now is over $2200.00 semi-annually.

    The price quoted and the first payment were made, but the subsequent payments increased. I was forced to use auto-pay, which I don't find necessary at 72 years old. I was supposed to be auto-billed on 2/2, and today, 2/5, I still haven't been billed. That's not acceptable.

    Home Insurance Caveat
    Wait for your home inspection before paying for the policy. Realize that wind and hail damage claims are prorated based on the age of the roof and are a percentage of the repair cost, less a deductible.

I had some issues renewing our account. The rate increase was astronomical. They are very good at covering claims, but the adjuster undercut the estimate, leading to the use of cheap materials. This caused us to spend an additional $1,200 plus our $1,000 deductible.

Great performance and challenging premium increases
AAA insurance has been very good in their delivery of insurance coverage. The issue is price. I suspect AAA insurance has a lot of coverage in California, and the losses incurred there by natural disasters are translating into above-average premium increases across all of their coverage. I'd rather not subsidize the lifestyle of folks who want to live in heavily wooded, bucolic estates which are difficult to reach.

I've had two cars insured by AAA and have a perfect record: no tickets, no DUIs, and no accidents. I even provided my Medicare card annually.

I was a member of the emergency road repair service for years and the service was excellent. When they advertised that they bundled home and car insurance, I signed up. However, I discovered that I live 0.2 miles too far from a fire station, so my home coverage was outsourced to an independent agent. Within three years, my car coverage doubled despite having no incidents for 24 years and low driving miles, as I am a safe, conservative driver. I was told the reason for the increased cost, from approximately $600 per year to around $1500 per year, was that they no longer offer bundling. It's time for me to find a new provider.
