Is Farmers A Good Insurance Company? Reviews From Over 3,848 Customers

They're good, just way too expensive.

I loved working with all of you. It felt like a family atmosphere. You all will be in my kindest thoughts. I wish you all the very best. - Michael

I wanted to use my credit because my car is in the garage, but Farmers Insurance couldn't provide me with this option.

Our agent was excellent!

It's okay, but it could be better.

The customer service is excellent, but the price went up.

The lady I spoke to was great. However, the policy was overpriced.

The company is not bad, I just feel that they didn't handle claims as quickly as they could. Also, I needed to find something cheaper.

My agent is fantastic! However, when I call the main number, the wait time is ridiculous.

Good people.

Okay.

Good.

It was good until the prices increased.

Great customer service.

I love my agents. Whenever I have any questions or need to make a payment, they are always there to help. They are professional and go above and beyond for me every time. Vicky and Wendy are the ones I work with most, and they are phenomenal. I am considering leaving only because I'm looking for lower rates. My truck insurance went up 100% when I had to renew, so I was forced to lower my insurance needs for financial reasons. I'm having a hard time maintaining full coverage at this point in my life. Other than that, I love Farmers.

Good company, but expensive.

This is the friendliest place I have dealt with in a long time. Chris is the best; I'm never letting him go.

Trouble-free and very helpful.

My agent is responsive when I call. He gives me the feeling that he is on my side.

Excellent.

They are courteous and informative.

Great price!

I was treated like a valued customer. I have no complaints.

Very expensive.

I liked them because they were fair. However, I'm just looking for something cheaper.

The best rate so far.

They offer good prices.

Due to a 3-week lapse in insurance, I was subjected to a 400% increase. Yes, I've had some incidents, but that's ridiculous.

Superior service.

They are just too expensive.

My agent, Mary, was very helpful.

The prices are high for a senior on social security. However, the service is good and I've never had a problem. They are pretty quick on response time!

Great! I'm just sorry I needed them.

They are professional, efficient, and polite.

It was awkward at first, but then it was OK.

The experience was good, but it was too expensive.

It was great, but every six months they raise rates. It doesn't matter if you're a good driver or not.

It does not offer enough flexibility for people with different needs.

Good company, no problems.

Shopping around helps.

I liked this company very much. However, when I purchased a new car, the rates were extremely high and they couldn't explain why when asked. After calling around, other insurance companies were $50-$100 cheaper, so I switched. I now have full coverage for $128 a month, while they wanted $220 for the exact same coverage. So, I switched.

A little high.

They raised my premium by over $25 without any notification or a 30-day notice, and without explaining why. There was no courtesy call or the option to negotiate. I feel that all the insurance companies, including Progressive, Farmers, Allstate, and State Farm, are price gouging. This is ridiculous. I need to know my options; my renewal date is Oct 1. What a birthday present to me!

All insurance has become very expensive.

I am glad that I found this company. The checkout process was a bit confusing, and I couldn't remove an item. However, their online support was able to sort it out for me.

It was a good experience.

Excellent.

The personnel are excellent, but the policy is very poor.

They were good until they raised my home insurance from $1,600 to $2,900.

I have been a customer for over 30 years.

I have had no issues, so everything is okay.

I wish they would extend our coverage for another year or more.

Need more discounts.

I am very happy with my agents, but Farmers is becoming quite expensive. This might be the case with all, but I am going to shop around for rates.

Farmers is a great company. However, I recently received my new policy and noticed a significant increase in my car premium.

Pretty good support.

My representative, Dakota, was great! She was able to address all my needs for home and auto coverage.

It's all good. I'm just waiting for a reasonable bundle.

Farmers offers the best prices for me. While other companies wanted $160+ a month, Farmers only charges me $88.00. They are straightforward, with no hidden fees, and it's easy to contact my representative. She responds quickly, regardless of the time.

I would recommend Farmers Insurance.

They need to stop increasing the prices for good drivers and charge more for the bad drivers!

They denied my claim for hailstone damage to my roof several years ago. We were the only homeowners in our entire subdivision whose homeowners policy insurer denied their claim. Later, during the Covid-19 pandemic, Farmers was one of the last insurers to reduce their premiums as a result of the “Stay at Home” policy adopted by the CDC. Now they have increased their premiums once again.

I can't get anyone to work with me about my policy.

They responded quite quickly, only to inform me that they couldn't satisfy my claim. Since they couldn't assess the damage done, they were unable to contribute towards fixing the major problem in my home.

I just compared rates and found some that are one-fifth of what I'm currently paying.

Farmers is highly commercialized and was good, but over time the premiums have consistently risen. They never reduced their premiums and I am very unhappy, even though I have been with them since 2019.

Farmers was suitable for me until they decided to increase my rate and then informed me about an additional surcharge. Insurance companies are already making enough money without the need to overcharge customers. Due to this, I will not be a returning customer.

I didn't know my agent had left in May until I couldn't contact him in November. The Farmer's office took four days to contact me with an explanation about him.

I was overcharged for my homeowner policy. The agent refuses to remove an HOA policy charge. I own my home outright and have never been a member of any HOA. He refused to refund it and does not communicate in any way, no calls, texts, or emails. The app randomly indicates that I am a passenger when I live alone and am the only person ever to drive the car. I received no response again. I feel ripped off and frustrated.

I had a terrible experience. I called in to speak with the agent who originally signed me up, but instead, I ended up speaking with a very aggressive representative. I ended the call due to her unprofessional behavior.

I would suggest shopping around as the deductibles and rates are too high.

Farmers uses a third-party service for internet payments. I used it and received a confirmation number, but the payment was never debited from my checking account. For the past six months, I thought I had car insurance, but I didn't. Now, it's going to cost me a lot to add to my new policy.

The customer service from the agent is poor.

I would simply say they are too expensive.

I received a poor email notification that my policy was expiring, only to discover that my lender had already sent the payment.

They are always looking for reasons to raise premiums. They frequently communicate circumstances under which they might drop coverage, even though I've been a customer for over 22 years with only one no-fault claim and no missed premium payments.

Stay away from Farmers. Their integrity is questionable and their customer service is awful.

I never received a call back.

Too expensive.

Farmers is acceptable, but the cost keeps rising several times a year!

Their service is overpriced, in my opinion.

They've been taking money from me for nine months and then billed me again, even after I provided proof that I never had two cars.

The price is too much for me.

On a scale of 1-10, agency owner Shea Dibley gets a 9.

It's not as advertised.

Very expensive.

The price is not competitive with other large companies. I will be changing soon.

My policy's cost increases with every renewal. It seems that the increase doesn't take into consideration that my driving record has been clear for five years. My rates should have been lowered instead of being increased.

I like my local agent okay, but in 45 years with them, I have never made a claim. The cost is way too high.

They keep increasing rates. Bad service.

There's no flexibility. They wouldn't run a new Lexus Nexus report after a correction. They just wanted to increase my insurance due to a license renewal mistake!

I feel like the rates are high considering I've had only one accident, which was not my fault, in the past three years.

The service comes from a local agent, so you need to ensure you have a good local person to assist you.

They started out with good pricing, but then became too expensive. They're way overpriced.

The price is way too high.

In three years, my insurance doubled even though I have no tickets or accidents.

I switched to Bristol West because I live in Kentucky, and I've been disappointed. I feel like they weren't honest with me and left out important information.

If possible, I would recommend looking elsewhere. In three years, my quotes have more than doubled. I will be finding a new insurance provider before my renewal date.

Every renewal since I've been with them, their rates go up. The insured vehicle only acquires 3500 miles a year or less. Definitely not worth $3000 a year. They have to go.

The information sent was confusing and led to consideration of cancellation. However, the situation remains unclear.

Easier access to policy.

I believe that Mores car insurance was charging me far too much! My new policy offers better coverage and costs less than half as much!

The prices keep going up.

The service was expensive and poor. The agent was never in the office. I had service with them for over 10 years because I was too lazy to shop for new insurance.

Ensure they inform you about the upfront costs for renewal, as they might change the price.

It's hard to get a person on the phone! The amount of money we pay for coverage is ridiculous! We are not happy with our current prices at all!

The price hike was too great this time. Shop around, there are many insurance companies with similar coverage for half the price.

Their pricing is ridiculously high.

I wouldn't recommend Farmers. Their representatives don't seem to take responsibility.

Very expensive!

Not great. I feel I am more on top of the insurance than they are.

The service is fair overall, but the rates are expensive.

The rates started out good, but they raised them last year. Now, it's unaffordable for both auto and home insurance.

I've been with this company for a long time, including for my homeowner's insurance. I questioned why my policy was increasing despite having no speeding tickets or accidents. I'm driving fewer miles, yet my insurance for my two vehicles has gone up. This frustrated me. Their customer service is generally good, except when they promise to investigate why my insurance increased but never follow through.

They started off well, but then the prices started rising drastically. I had one claim in 17 years for hail damage and my homeowners insurance skyrocketed. It seemed like the agent was more concerned with their commission than customer service.

Inquire about their renewal policy.

Terrible - they reported a false claim. I called about a claim we never followed through on. Regardless, Farmers claimed we did, which was false.

The rates at AARP are too high.

Farmers consistently raises their rates significantly. I've experienced this in both Texas and Maine. However, I've switched to Progressive and have saved almost $2000 in total on our insurance needs. I wouldn't recommend Farmers Insurance to anyone.

I'm not very happy, which is why I keep shopping around for a better rate for my car. They're very expensive.
