You advertise the best rate due to cutbacks on paper and such, yet there's more you could do to reduce paper usage and further lower your rates. It just doesn't make sense to me.

They have handled my account as expected. I've really only had to use them twice. Once to have my tire changed and once when I was in an accident and it was my fault. They handled the entire claims process from start to finish and all I did was pay my deductible. However, they did increase my premium by almost twice what I was paying before. It went from $92/mo. to $228/mo.

Acquiring my first policy was quick, simple, and came with a good price quote. I would have given 5 stars, but the first renewal, despite no accidents and a good record, came with a 25% increase.

Good insurance, quick and easy to get. The only downfall is the Esurance app. It randomly stops working or won't let you log in.

You all have been great. I just think that I'm paying too much just because I had a company work truck for 3 years with no accidents and didn't need to have any.

I have insurance with them for California and called to get a quote for my upcoming move to Las Vegas, Nevada. They gave me a quote that was three times what I am currently paying. So, I am looking elsewhere. I have found some better quotes with other auto insurance companies. It's pretty frustrating since I have no tickets, no accidents, and have set up automatic payments!

They increase rates for accidents, some of which were not the fault of the owner/driver. Our home insurance through them was also dropped due to a no-fault home fire years back, which was the first and only claim made on any of our homes.

I don't like their DriveSense app. It does not accurately record your driving, especially when it comes to braking. There are times when you are forced to brake because of other careless drivers, but the app has no way of measuring that. So, it records it as hard braking, and it goes against you.

My coverage for bodily injury and property damages is too low. My term mileage is also too high, as I only drive 4 to 5 thousand miles at most, not 8 to 12 thousand. The policy also needs to be restructured for drivers.

There was a lack of communication with my assigned claims adjuster. I had to provide claim information three times to three different employees, but the information was not recorded. Each time I spoke to a different department of the company, I was asked to provide the claim information again.

You shouldn't raise someone's insurance that much without notifying them. I had Sheila Taylor's insurance company send me a record stating that there were no accidents, no reasons to raise my insurance. I had no wrecks, no speeding tickets, nothing. I don't have to put up with that. There are too many companies out there looking for loyal customers.

The lady who handled my insurance gave me an Oklahoma policy instead of a Texas policy. This mistake forced me to pay another down payment. If I had known this, I would have chosen a different insurance company because I cannot afford another down payment.

The process of getting to a live representative takes way too long. Agents are not well versed in California law, and it's hard to get a detailed answer. It's only from a supervisor, who are nearly impossible to get on the line.

Non-responsive. Every time I needed help, like roadside assistance, no one ever picked up. There's always a long wait just to get transferred and then they tell you they will call you back. Ultimately, I am not sure what the insurance company does. It never helped while I paid for it.

It's utterly absurd that two individuals with clean driving records, living in the countryside, and driving vehicles that are 11 and 8 years old respectively, should pay the rates we do. Esurance doesn't seem to listen. I complained to them when they sent a tow service whose owner was rude to me over the phone, and the next time I needed roadside assistance, they tried to send the same service. I ended up paying for the tow myself.

The premium increases every 6 months, even with a clean driving record. It started with a few dollars, but the next time it increased by approximately $20. They are charging over $400 for six months of liability coverage (50k/100k/50k + uninsured motorist BI) on a 1990 Ford F150. Despite claiming to be a modern company, it's surprising that I have to call a 1-800 number and go through a lengthy process just to cancel a policy before it renews. Esurance's marketing campaign, featuring Dennis Quaid, seems to have led to increased premiums for customers. It seems they've moved away from their initial promise of passing savings onto the customer. Now, they resemble the larger companies they once criticized. I'm switching from Esurance to Allstate.

They misled me by saying that they would thoroughly investigate claims, instead of just accepting the other party's statement. They raised my rate without explaining the reason.

My policy is so expensive, and I don't understand why. I've had two insurance claims in the past five years, but I was ruled not at fault for both. I can't understand why I'm being penalized for someone else's mistake.

I had to reconsider my rating, dropping it from 2 to 1 star. The reason for this is that Esurance provided me with insurance even though I didn't have a valid driver's license and there was no need for SR-22. I was able to pay for 6 months online without any issues.

I was previously insured even without a driver's license and they covered me without the need for an SR-22. I still have that insurance card in my wallet. Funny, right?
