- Verified ReviewReviewed in South Carolina on August 19, 2026It’s expensive.Verified ReviewReviewed in Nevada on August 18, 2026Got good coverage at an affordable price.Verified ReviewReviewed in Texas on August 16, 2026I’ve been with Allstate since 1969 for my auto and home insurance. I wouldn’t change.Verified ReviewReviewed in Wisconsin on August 14, 2026Great, just looking to save money.Verified ReviewReviewed in Alabama on August 13, 2026Great.Verified ReviewReviewed in Oklahoma on August 7, 2026It’s been good, just too expensive.Verified ReviewReviewed in Florida on August 7, 2026Since I am a "snowbird," I can suspend my coverage when I’m not there.Verified ReviewReviewed in Oregon on August 6, 2026Prices are always increasing, but I know they’ll take care of me if something happens.Verified ReviewReviewed in Michigan on August 17, 2026Still waiting for my car policies in the mail, along with the certificate of insurance and proof of insurance. Not happy about that at all. I called and requested them, but got no response.Verified ReviewReviewed in Maryland on August 15, 2026They didn’t fully follow through and advised me incorrectly, which cost me several hundred dollars out of pocket.Verified ReviewReviewed in Georgia on August 11, 2026It took an inordinate amount of time to get my car fixed initially, but once it was completed, everything was done well and paid for fairly. The work was warranted and the warranty was honored when needed. The premiums are very excessive, however.Verified ReviewReviewed in Indiana on August 10, 2026I don’t think car insurance should go up when only one car has a claim. We’re trying to switch before Friday.Verified ReviewReviewed in Arizona on August 8, 2026Their price went up about 60% in two years.Verified ReviewReviewed in Wisconsin on August 1, 2026They’ve changed the way they do business, and not for the better. We had a car run a stoplight and T-bone her in the driver’s door. The other driver had no insurance, so we had to pay our deductible to get the car fixed. We never heard another word from them, and they never recovered our money, but we still see this same person driving around with a new car and bragging about never having to pay out.Verified ReviewReviewed in Florida on July 31, 2026I switched to Progressive. Much lower rates, same coverage.Verified ReviewReviewed in Georgia on July 30, 2026My coverage is good, but it’s way too expensive. I have an excellent driving record, don’t drive many miles, and every year my rate goes up and up. I’m currently shopping around.

- Verified ReviewReviewed in Wisconsin on August 4, 2026I really prefer using the website. It’s set up very well, though. They can be a bit sticky about paying claims. Use their “preferred contractors” when possible. (Could be worse!)Verified ReviewReviewed in Tennessee on August 3, 2026Quality insurance.Verified ReviewReviewed in Texas on July 28, 2026Good, just a little pricey at this stage of my life.Verified ReviewReviewed in Kentucky on July 23, 2026Great.Verified ReviewReviewed in Wisconsin on July 15, 2026Too expensive.Verified ReviewReviewed in Florida on July 14, 2026Excellent, apart from some glitches at the agent's office.Verified ReviewReviewed in New Mexico on July 10, 2026The only thing I have a complaint about is that when my original agent retired, I had to wait one year before I could transfer to another agency. I didn’t like that.Verified ReviewReviewed in South Carolina on July 9, 2026Good window coverage service. Their liability insurance rates are high.Verified ReviewReviewed in Nevada on August 19, 2026They’re a bit high in cost.Verified ReviewReviewed in Pennsylvania on August 17, 2026Great, but now the cost is over the top.Verified ReviewReviewed in Tennessee on August 14, 2026I’ve been an Allstate customer for many years. Our coverage has been good, and customer service has been good. My primary concern is the increasing cost.Verified ReviewReviewed in North Carolina on August 12, 2026Very good locally, but claims are handled remotely and require major attention from the customer.Verified ReviewReviewed in New York on August 11, 2026The rate is higher than most.Verified ReviewReviewed in Florida on August 10, 2026High-priced, and the only option to reduce the cost is to lower coverage.Verified ReviewReviewed in Virginia on August 2, 2026I was shocked by the annual cost for a new vehicle we just added to our policy. With all the safety features on this vehicle, the cost of the insurance feels ludicrous. That’s why I’m now shopping for a better rate.Verified ReviewReviewed in New Jersey on August 1, 2026Too expensive.

Here are positive and negative reviews about Allstate’s value for money from Insurify customers.
- Verified ReviewReviewed in Pennsylvania on June 25, 2026No other insurance comes close to what I pay for auto and renters with Allstate.Verified ReviewReviewed in Ohio on June 11, 2026I keep getting refunds because I don't drive a lot.Verified ReviewReviewed in Washington on June 2, 2026Amazing! Everyone is so friendly and helps me get to where I need to be.Verified ReviewReviewed in Florida on June 2, 2026Very responsive and open about options.Verified ReviewReviewed in Iowa on May 31, 2026I am being overcharged for the most inexpensive coverage they have. At $80 a month for the lowest coverage liability that basically covers nothing, it is a poor choice. I've only been in one accident over 20 years ago. So Direct will cover you, just not as well as they say they do.Verified ReviewReviewed in Texas on May 20, 2026Awesome! Best rates ever!Verified ReviewReviewed in California on April 27, 2026Quick and easy to set up and complete policy purchase. Good policy selection. Good price.Verified ReviewReviewed in Florida on April 26, 2026Allstate has really good coverage for an affordable price.Verified ReviewReviewed in New Jersey on July 30, 2026Seems expensive.Verified ReviewReviewed in Arizona on July 29, 2026I have been with Allstate for many years. It is always easy to contact an agent to answer questions I may have about my policy. Any concerns have been handled professionally, respectfully, and promptly. At this time, I am researching possible alternatives to lower auto policy fees. I have found that the car policy charges may be higher than other companies, but no one has been able to offer lower home insurance than what I get with Allstate. So, with all that said, I am still searching for a reduction in car insurance charges along with someone who can match Allstate’s home insurance—at this point, I’m unsure what to do. It seems best to stay with Allstate for the time being.Verified ReviewReviewed in Illinois on July 25, 2026Decent price. I haven’t had any claims in many years, so I don’t really have an opinion about the insurance process.Verified ReviewReviewed in Nebraska on July 25, 2026All calls go to AI. I prefer talking to a live person.Verified ReviewReviewed in Georgia on July 18, 2026They raised their price every year.Verified ReviewReviewed in Washington on July 18, 2026It would be nice to pay less for senior status. The accident-free discount is good. A multi-vehicle discount would be appreciated—I have four vehicles to insure. I’m not happy that I have to pay separately for roadside service; towing should be part of the basic plan, not an add-on. I’d like a discount for going digital and more payment options besides paying the full amount up front or monthly. It seems like there’s a huge price difference when paying monthly, and that doesn’t feel fair. Not everyone has $2,000 ready for a lump-sum payment. If I have an accident, it would be good to have an in-person adjuster available within a day or two instead of a week.Verified ReviewReviewed in Pennsylvania on July 6, 2026Be prepared for rate increases without explanation.Verified ReviewReviewed in Oregon on July 2, 2026It was good. My agent worked with me when my rate went up to bring it down.

- Verified ReviewReviewed in California on July 27, 2026It’s impossible to get ahold of your agent. No matter what number you dial, it goes to the hub and takes a long time, even if you just need something from your agent. Why bother having an agent then?Verified ReviewReviewed in Texas on July 13, 2026Insurance is too expensive—look for the best price.Verified ReviewReviewed in California on July 11, 2026Be sure to get all the information you need.Verified ReviewReviewed in Georgia on June 5, 2026Customer service is good, and claims are handled extremely well!Verified ReviewReviewed in Texas on May 1, 2026All good and full of transparency.Verified ReviewReviewed in Georgia on April 19, 2026Excellent experience. They do everything you ask of them. They do a great job.Verified ReviewReviewed in Georgia on April 17, 2026Great company and easy to work with. They really care.Verified ReviewReviewed in Oregon on April 17, 2026Good service online and face-to-face; however, when an agent leaves or an office closes, there's no contact, no warning text, no friendly goodbye letter. They are history and may even forget to finish your requests, such as an address change or email question. This has happened three times to me. Who do I blame for the lack of follow-through? The old agent is gone, it's not the new agent's fault, just no system of continuity. Otherwise, it's a good company. You have to be proactive.Verified ReviewReviewed in California on August 15, 2026Bad—they weren’t available when I had an accident. No one answered the phone. It was a Sunday, but that shouldn’t have made a difference. They also didn’t help much to resolve it. The claims representative was very difficult to deal with. I really dislike Allstate and plan to switch to a company with better customer service.Verified ReviewReviewed in Florida on July 28, 2026I haven’t had to deal with them, but from a trust standpoint, I like them. The price for the policy options is too high.Verified ReviewReviewed in Texas on July 25, 2026When someone sells a car and takes it off their insurance policy, they shouldn’t have to pay for that car’s insurance the next month. It doesn’t make sense why you should have to. I’m about to change my insurance.Verified ReviewReviewed in California on July 17, 2026Great to have them. What I don’t like is that they keep raising the price every six months. I don’t get anything different, but they continue to raise the price, and we don’t receive anything new on our policy.Verified ReviewReviewed in New Jersey on July 10, 2026They love to take your money but don’t support you if you have an accident. They also hike rates significantly after an accident.Verified ReviewReviewed in Ohio on July 8, 2026Premiums are too high for two people with two cars and no moving violations. My husband did have a minor accident. $495.00 a month is too much. $60.00 of that is for the accident, so I was told.Verified ReviewReviewed in Texas on June 26, 2026Allstate is okay. Didn't feel like I was in good hands though. No one could reduce my rate for a car that was parked 95% of the time. I found a car insurance rate for $68 per month with roadside assistance.Verified ReviewReviewed in New York on June 23, 2026I would tell them to check other insurance companies besides Allstate. Allstate has always gone up and never given its long-standing customers a nice discount!
