- Verified ReviewReviewed in Minnesota on February 27, 2026Farmers made changing insurance easy and called to make sure I have what I need. It's half the cost of my previous insurance.Verified ReviewReviewed in Missouri on November 26, 2025It's been a bit difficult lately to directly contact the agent who initially signed me up and saved me a lot of money on my home insurance bundled with my auto insurance. The office assistant got me insurance for a new vehicle recently, but I think the rate is too high. I am going to attempt to get through to the agent I used initially. It could be just the issue of using the phone instead of a direct email to the person I am referring to.Verified ReviewReviewed in Wyoming on November 1, 2025Quick, easy, and trustworthy.Verified ReviewReviewed in California on October 28, 2025From my experience with Farmers for home and car insurance—run away.

- Verified ReviewReviewed in Indiana on September 16, 2025Very good follow-up and made it much better.Verified ReviewReviewed in Colorado on May 15, 2025Excellent service at all times.Verified ReviewReviewed in New York on May 11, 2025They were very prompt in handling our claims.Verified ReviewReviewed in Oregon on April 24, 2025Nice and simple.Verified ReviewReviewed in Tennessee on April 22, 2025To date, no problems.Verified ReviewReviewed in Maryland on April 22, 2025I recommended Farmers to a colleague.Verified ReviewReviewed in Pennsylvania on April 17, 2025Best serviceVerified ReviewReviewed in California on March 17, 2025Very good.Verified ReviewReviewed in Kansas on March 3, 2026Expensive car insurance, but cheaper house insurance and cheaper umbrella. As a result, a combo of the three makes them competitive with other companies.Verified ReviewReviewed in New York on October 31, 2025Okay, but my agent isn't helpful.Verified ReviewReviewed in Missouri on October 22, 2025Farmers has been okay. They were cheaper than my last company. However, they are all too high for the risk.Verified ReviewReviewed in Alabama on October 21, 2025Be wary of them; they will constantly increase your premiums with annual renewal and no claims.Verified ReviewReviewed in Tennessee on October 2, 2025Farmers offers very competitive rates as long as they have access to your money when they want it.

There's no incentive to keep customers.Verified ReviewReviewed in Colorado on September 1, 2025Yet, with Mr. DeZuba's help, I was able to not only get some insurance SR-22 coverage but also felt good about doing it. He worked hard to get me a great quote and informed me of several next steps, which for a German like me is what we always need. That ability is what we Germans strive for, and when it happens, it turns into such a speedy activity. I was in and out with coverage quickly.Verified ReviewReviewed in California on August 13, 2025Check around on each renewal to make sure that Farmers is competitive.

- Verified ReviewReviewed in Colorado on February 16, 2026It is a bit expensive for an older automobile, but I've had no claims.Verified ReviewReviewed in Minnesota on September 29, 2025I found an agent 35 years ago and have had good service since then.Verified ReviewReviewed in Illinois on April 20, 2025Every interaction I've had has been positive.Verified ReviewReviewed in Pennsylvania on April 16, 2025The service is good, but due to the current climate, I am shopping for better pricing.Verified ReviewReviewed in Oregon on March 26, 2025Okay, but they have increased my policy even though I don't drive much anymore.Verified ReviewReviewed in Mississippi on March 17, 2025Fantastic!Verified ReviewReviewed in Georgia on March 13, 2025They have handled most past claims incredibly well. However, they refused to cover my roof 2 years ago and their deductible has increased substantially this year.Verified ReviewReviewed in California on March 13, 2025I was just looking for a better price. The problem is when doing it online, I can't get the true price because I have my home, my truck, and my Harley insured. So, it's hard to compare your price with theirs as yours is much higher due to me bundling with them. Just for the truck, you were $900.00 over. But thanks anyway.Verified ReviewReviewed in California on September 10, 2025Keep an eye out for continuous premium increases.Verified ReviewReviewed in Connecticut on July 31, 2025Homeowners insurance went way up in the bundle, so I'm researching other options.Verified ReviewReviewed in Colorado on July 28, 2025The rates are way too expensive.Verified ReviewReviewed in Arizona on May 16, 2025Farmers is, and always has been, expensive.Verified ReviewReviewed in California on May 10, 2025Like Farmers, just average. They bought 20th Century, which was excellent, then they set up this Toggle by surprise. There's nobody to communicate with, only a website. Toggle appears new because they made a mistake the first round, then next they upped the price from $796 for half a year to the low $800s. This year, Toggle upped the price to $1016 for half a year, for no reason. Toggle sent a form recently asking for many things, particularly how much mileage is on the cars. One car we have is normal for that, but the other car predicted low mileage (2020 for the whole year), so when they should have reduced our premium, they said, "We've updated your annual mileage" for one car by 25%. I am currently looking for a better insurer.Verified ReviewReviewed in Colorado on May 8, 2025I wanted an insurance company that had local representatives so in case of an accident, a live person is responding to my local crisis. I now understand I'm paying that representative's income in a small way, making my insurance more expensive than is truly necessary.Verified ReviewReviewed in Maryland on April 21, 2025They raised their prices too high.Verified ReviewReviewed in Nevada on April 20, 2025They do not consider insurance for people like me who only drive five or six thousand miles a year and don't offer any discounts. It's frustrating because they keep charging more money every year instead of giving discounts to insured individuals like me. The less time you spend on the road, the fewer accidents you're likely to have, not more. I would understand increased coverage and cost if you're someone who travels a lot and has numerous fender benders every year. As for me, I don't drink and drive, don't use the cell phone while driving, don't smoke and drive, and I don't engage in conversations while driving. I keep my eyes on the road.

- Verified ReviewReviewed in New Mexico on October 22, 2025I have a great agent. This is very important, not just pricing.Verified ReviewReviewed in New Mexico on April 27, 2025I've never had a problem with them. Always a good experience.Verified ReviewReviewed in Utah on February 28, 2025It's very good.Verified ReviewReviewed in Pennsylvania on February 19, 2025Their rates are great.Verified ReviewReviewed in Oregon on December 4, 2024Our agent was excellent!Verified ReviewReviewed in California on October 28, 2024Great customer service.Verified ReviewReviewed in Michigan on October 21, 2024This is the friendliest place I have dealt with in a long time. Chris is the best; I'm never letting him go.Verified ReviewReviewed in Georgia on October 15, 2024Great price!Verified ReviewReviewed in Colorado on February 2, 2026I switched to Farmers from State Farm 8 years ago because State Farm raised my 6-month rates by $135.00 without explanation, and I had their tracking for my driving installed, for which they charged me an extra $35.00 a year. I had been with State Farm since I was 16 years old. No comment from my agent. So, I switched! My Farmers agent was very good. I realized I might pay a few dollars more, but the coverage I chose was good. It is a bit more expensive, but the coverage I have more than covers me. Will I continue? It depends on the cost of coverage in the future. I have had no accidents or violations, so my policy increases yearly have been minimal because I have a good driving record.Verified ReviewReviewed in Tennessee on August 27, 2025I got their policy because they had the best price. But I’ve tried to talk to them to reevaluate my policy needs since I retired. I haven’t had a conversation with them yet. I know I can get a better price somewhere else.Verified ReviewReviewed in California on May 7, 2025We had two claims to settle, and it took over a year to finalize the first one. Farmers used over five different people in different departments. Then, getting our settlement was still delayed after that. The next claim was worse. They would not return calls after 3 or 4 messages to report the incident. We gave up and started looking elsewhere. Don't you have managers that check on employees' work? Why does it take me switching insurance providers to get your attention? Your customer service needs improvement. I hope this is enough to get management informed.Verified ReviewReviewed in Washington on May 7, 2025My agent is great after 42 years, but I feel the company is too pricey and always raising my rates.Verified ReviewReviewed in Illinois on April 30, 2025Overly complex policy description and provisions, particularly confusing claim forms, with a lack of specific listing of dollar amounts per type of loss.Verified ReviewReviewed in California on April 18, 2025Farmers has been good, but the rates keep getting higher.Verified ReviewReviewed in Virginia on April 17, 2025It would be better to have an agent who returns calls.Verified ReviewReviewed in North Carolina on March 23, 2025The pricing seemed a little high to me.

They took over our policies from MetLife.Verified ReviewReviewed in Washington on September 30, 2025When I signed up six months ago, I had a gentleman named Leland, and he was absolutely excellent.

Each policy renewal brought new changes. Customer service representatives offer the bare minimum effort.Verified ReviewReviewed in Washington on April 28, 2025They are a typical insurance company that doesn't keep in mind their customers' needs. They are always raising rates because of the high cost of repairs, even though I don't own one of those vehicles. Also, there are no notifications of raising their fees!Verified ReviewReviewed in California on April 27, 2025They don't value loyal customers.Verified ReviewReviewed in California on April 21, 2025They charge too much money.Verified ReviewReviewed in California on April 13, 2025Their rates on all three of my policies with Farmers have doubled in the last year and I don't understand why.
