New Policy Hunt for Old Car Coverage
I recently sold a car and am changing my coverage. It seems like I'm getting less coverage at the same higher cost for two old cars. I'm looking for savings as I hardly drive 100 miles in a week.

Very Satisfied with my insurance!
Be careful, read the items that come in the mail promptly and respond promptly. However, they do answer all your questions and take care of what you need, so I am glad I am staying with them.

Good insurance until...
State Farm was good until I added a new car, and then things got ridiculously priced. I switched, and now my home insurance is about to be switched from State Farm.

Progressive vs. State Farm
I wish I could have stayed with State Farm; however, finances rule these days, so I had to switch to Progressive. By doing that, I saved over $200 per month. So far, I haven’t had to use Progressive for anything yet.

Great insurance, too expensive in Connecticut
State Farm is excellent insurance, but their rate in Connecticut was almost three times their rate in Florida, so I had to change to Progressive. Not happy about it, but what else can I do?

Glenn Carr is an outstanding agent. I know I can get my insurance from someone else for a cheaper price, but given Glenn and his team's excellent performance, I don’t think twice about going down that path.

State Farm Did Us Right!
Cost is always a factor, depending on your ride. We had full insurance on our car, and when Amy hit a deer and totaled it, I believe we received a check within 20 days or less. The process wasn't a hassle. Bottom line, we were very happy with the amount we received!

Too Expensive
State Farm is such a great insurance company. I have nothing really bad to say about them except my rate was too high. I'm 55 and disabled, and there's no way I should have been paying over $300 a month for full coverage insurance for my 2012 Equinox. So I started searching around and was more specific with my search and found a cheaper rate with the same perks and options. Cheaper, but I think State Farm is still a good company.

Recently, almost all vehicle insurance companies are falsely quoting prices for senior citizens. My example: I'm 76 years old, travel less than 16 miles per month, have my truck in a carport, and have been given false quotes of as little as $39 per month. When I call, the least amount I'm quoted is $250. All I need is liability insurance and no home insurance.

I have had great customer service since I joined them almost 2 years ago, and the rate I pay is cheaper than every other insurance company that claims to be able to get me a cheaper rate. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Hidden strategies!!!
Well, no issues for years, other than the cost seems high for an old lady who drives a few miles per day and 150 miles on holidays. Until one day, I had to pay $45.00 to be towed to my mechanic one block from my home, instead of the nearest mechanic 16 miles from my home! I believe it should be my choice!

Great, other than the price being almost twice what it should be. The agent does nothing, and I have never met him. We went to his office; he didn’t come to us. I have been with them since 1979 and expect some loyalty rewards, but none were given. I love State Farm, but they need to do better.

Katie was a part-time agent but made me her only customer. I hope she is the boss one day.
It's about the people. I use the State Farm that is 300 miles from where I live, with many State Farm agencies along the way. It's about the people. One little part-time agent kept me updated on what was going on with the insurance company. Katie started talking to me 9 weeks before I needed a new policy, and she is why I moved to State Farm and is still the reason because she is my agent.

Want a lower rate insurance
I’ve had great service, but I can’t seem to get a lower rate. I’ve had no accidents or tickets for the many years I’ve been driving, but I’m still paying over $200.00 a month. They say it’s because of other drivers that my rates are so high. It’s getting hard to pay my bills when I’m on a fixed income.

The Home Policy Didn't Help When Needed
Regarding home insurance, don't trust them to come through as expected. My house was hit by my neighbor's burst water pipe that magically cut through my wall. My handler didn't know what to do and simply put my claim into the national list, and no one has come to see me since February 16th, and it's April 16th now. I'm out of a house, my car got hit, and they made me fill out two claims (two deductibles) to fix it. Now someone plucked out my turning signal light, and I need a police report to do anything about it, but couldn't wait past five hours to get the report. So again, delays from all sides are bouncing against one another, making a bad situation worse. I am on the street and can't pay my insurance now because I ran out of money! I am too distraught and angry for a better explanation at this point. Terrible. And after they were wonderful as I worked out my grandma's home policy claim from a fire that took 60% of her house and restored it! I am flabbergasted by this.

Towing Coverage without The Tow
I recently had a blowout from a pothole. I called State Farm for a tow since I had towing coverage. An hour and a half later, no tow truck. I called them back and complained. They said I would get a call when the truck was on the way. Never got a call or a tow truck.

In past years, it was good. Now the rate has jumped up 35% and coverage is up 5%. This is ridiculous. I have a 1999 Jeep with $5,000 coverage that was charging $108 per year, and this year it went up to $140 for the same coverage. Not good!

Paid for insurance for 65 years, no tickets or accidents. One accident and it doubles.
You will pay large sums of money for your auto insurance, but you better never have a ticket or accident, because you will not only pay higher premiums, but much higher and for many years, even though you have had an excellent driving record for years prior. It does not help if your spouse hasn't ever had a ticket or accident. Auto and homeowners insurance is way more costly than it should be.

Cost Evaluation, State Farm
I have been with State Farm for over 66 years. Times are changing now; both my wife and I are retired, driving much less, and living on fixed incomes. We have 3 autos now, the oldest being a 1995 GMC truck, plus our house is insured with State Farm. I need to evaluate our expenses. Insurance is our largest cost.

Drive Safe and Save... Yourself the Headache
Due to the lack of insurance adjusters and their use of artificial intelligence through third parties to process claims, you are looking at a total loss in the event of an accident, with them keeping the vehicle to auction and recover some of their money. Vehicles are grossly undervalued with this company.

Safe Driver and Good Customer
I've never had lower rates in all my years with no claims; they always go higher. We had a claim, but not a lot because we carry a high deductible. You would think after years with a good record, rates would go down, not up.

Unsatisfied Customer
My agent has had nothing to do with me since she gave me the policy. I’ve asked several times to make changes to my policy with others in the office, and they won’t. My BMW is a classic. I barely drive it. The other vehicle is a 2023 truck 4x4. I’m paying over $200 a month for insurance on them. I’m a senior citizen on a fixed income. I tell them I can’t afford this, but still, they don’t work with me to make some changes. I’ve had no claims. I am looking for another insurance company.

Raising Rates Because They Can
I have been a State Farm customer for 50 years and have not placed a claim for, I would guess, 30 years. They just raised my homeowner's rate by 20% because, according to the agency office, they are raising all condo rates. State Farm is no longer a good neighbor.

Someone is getting rich, but it isn't me...
In my opinion, after checking around with other insurance companies, State Farm is high-priced and they don't seem to be very helpful in saving money. After 44 years of experience with them, one might think that there could be some kind of discounts, but I have yet to find a way to get any less of a premium.

Lately it’s been horrible
I've been with State Farm for over twenty years and I've witnessed unbelievable increases. I've been on disability for over twenty years, and as the insurance company raises rates, I continue to make sure I pay my insurance while decreasing my personal expenses. There's nothing for dedicated people like me. I don't want to drive without insurance, and as I'm getting older, a vehicle is essential for me to have.

Dictator Insurance
State Farm has a third party sending drones over people's houses and walking on their property without notifying them when arriving for house insurance. They won’t send you a copy of the report but just tell you to cut back trees. They won’t provide any details but will terminate your insurance after 40 years and no claims if you don’t comply. They don’t offer any assistance.

Moderately happy customer.
My questions were answered. The rate is high. When I had a claim regarding the "at fault" other person, the agent said, "They're a good company. Do you want to deal with them yourself?" I asked, "Why am I paying you?" Maybe it was just that particular agent, but it seemed a bit lazy. I was able to have payments drafted from my bank, which always kept me current. I liked that.
