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'd rather get insurance online than pay an agent
I guess I'm staying with them because I got a quote online from you guys, and then you keep bothering me. I told you what the price was online, and you guys won't confirm, deny, or consider another price. You want me to do it all over again because the Internet doesn't get paid, but if you do it, you get extra money. I think that you're overcharging people, and I'm going to have Internet car insurance because you guys cost as much as AAA, and they're way better than you.

AAA Unfair Treatment of Longtime Customers
After 30+ years of being a AAA member, I can’t recommend them to anyone. I started with auto insurance, then years ago they had me bundle my auto and home insurance. About one year ago, they would not renew my home policy for untrue and very ambiguous reasons with no ability to resolve the stated “issues.” Recently, they wanted to increase my car insurance from $300 a month to $450 a month for no reason—no tickets, accidents, or claims. After 30+ years, closer to 40 years as a loyal customer, I am done with them. Treat your long-term customers like this, and all I can say is “Good Luck.” DONE!

Since I have no accidents, no tickets, and no DUI, I've never received any credits for having a clean record. Plus, I have DRIVE, AP on my vehicle. I would think that being with the company for over four years, my plan should be cheaper. I also provide my Medicare card, as is protocol. Thank you very much.

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.

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.

They are good when it comes to handling claims. However, for some reason, the monthly payments have increased on multiple occasions. I am on a fixed income, and my policy went from $180 a month to $400 a month over a 2-year span with only two accidents, one of which was not my fault.

Disappointed Long-Time Customer
It seems that the claims adjusters have been instructed to offer unsatisfactory homeowners. They are slow in their processes and undervalue clients, even those with legitimate damage. Even a child could tell how ridiculous these offers are. They change email for inbound adjusters, switch adjusters, and avoid processing legitimate claims. It's no surprise that the insurance companies are being sued and losing.

Much too expensive! Because I am almost 90 years old, have had a couple of minor fender benders, and drive a lot (24,000 miles per year), AAA is charging me about $8,400 per year. They overlook that I had a spotless, distinguished driving record for over 70 years. I still am a very competent and alert driver. Their customer relations are excellent and friendly, and claims are settled quite rapidly. I find it convenient that they allow me to pay premiums on a quarterly basis from my local credit union.
