Is State Farm A Good Insurance Company? Reviews From Over 21,636 Customers

I speak with several girls in the office, but it seems they always end up having to speak with a woman who never wants to spend any time talking to me. She tells me things, and that’s it—no room for discussion. I ask about other options, discounts, etc., and she answers me—no, you have all the discounts. I barely drive my car, maybe like 25 miles a day (not even). I’m retired, so the car sits. I believe she always says that I’m discounted at the usual average mileage, but I don’t drive much anymore.

State Farm provided me with competitive rates, excellent customer service, and even checked on me from time to time. I have no issues.

Service was prompt and efficient. The only reason I’m looking for another insurance company is the cost.

They need to offer a better discount for longevity.

They respond quickly, but they don't like multiple claims. The premium is reasonable.

In general, I am very happy with State Farm, but not too happy about the prices for my policy.

I know that companies don't like calling and offering discounts, but I get so many offers from other companies about saving money compared to State Farm. You know I'd switch or would switch in a heartbeat to save money, especially now since retirement.

Never had any issues with State Farm since I first got coverage from them in 2018.

I've been with State Farm since 1968. They have always treated us fairly and offered reasonable rates compared to others.

The personnel are pleasant and helpful. It's located locally in a plaza, making it easy to get to.

They have been really good these two years.

Good company. Decent price.

My experience with my current car insurance was really good. Just wish that my policy price would drop somewhat, that's all.

Very good service.

Pricey but great customer service and easy claims.

Luckily, I don't need to use it much, but it is expensive and no discounts are offered for long-term insurers or no accident discounts. I WOULD SHOP.

I have had State Farm for over 30 years. I have gotten quotes from other companies, but none of them beat State Farm.

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.

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.

They gave me one price, and a month later it was increased!

Get the best price you can.

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.

Service is excellent. Cost is an issue, but you get what you pay for.

The price I’m paying is too high.

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.

Talk to a couple of different agents to find the best deal and the coverage that’s best for you.

Great because of the price I pay.

They are okay. Too high for my car.

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?

State Farm is an excellent company and they have always taken care of me and my family. However, their rates are way above the national average!

The premiums keep going up even though we have been over 10 years without losses.

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.

Nothing but good things to say about State Farm at this time. Dollar for dollar, they have the best coverage for the money.

Need cheaper rates! We are retired and need all the financial help we can receive.

Good, but it's getting too expensive, even with no accidents or tickets.

I have always had a good experience with State Farm. They are always willing to listen to you and try to help you out.

I am happy with the State Farm coverage.

Cheap.

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!

Fair and affordable.

All auto insurance in Florida is very expensive. Go with someone you trust.

I always received answers to my questions.

I used to pay $155.77 and now I’m paying $317, with no explanation why I’m paying almost double what I was paying.

The company is fine, but the price of anything and everything is the problem. Good product!

State Farm has always been a great car insurance company. They have helped me when I needed it in any situation.

Customer service is the best!

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.

State Farm is very fast at handling claims. I am pleased with their services.

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.

They are considered one of the best, but they’re expensive.

It's okay, but I can only afford state-required coverage.

Professional, but the rates are too high considering my zero claim history. I've never had a claim, EVER!

It's okay, but I wish the payment wasn't so high.

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!

I'd say shop around for senior discounts. The service is excellent, but their prices are prohibitive. I think I'm going to look around for a price I can afford. Everything is so expensive.

It was super easy and fast online. Setting it up was easy as well. Yes, I would tell a friend to use them.

So far, so good, but I would like to lower my payments per month.

They keep raising their rates regardless of how long you have been insured by them.

I have been very happy with my current insurance, which is why I have never changed after over 20 years. I just wish it was cheaper, but no other insurance is any better.

The price is high for the amount of coverage provided.

Terrible price-wise, they keep going up and we have great credit and I only have one speeding ticket. Prices have been going up for a while. Currently looking elsewhere. They said once you're in your 50s it would start going down, but our policies have only gone up.

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.

Even with high deductibles, it is still pricey.

They keep raising my rates, and I've never had a chargeable incident.

Prices are too high for older autos.

Lower monthly payments for liability only.

Could be a little more transparent with the billing.

Too expensive for the few daily driven miles.

They raise the policy costs every month.

Too expensive, rates go up way too much in a short time!

I would tell people to stay away from State Farm. I have a good, clean history of driving with no homeowners claims, and it seems like my premiums went up every six months. My premiums have increased by over $300 in the last year or so.

They claim you don't have the coverages you paid for when you're in an accident. They like to say that full coverage isn't a thing, yet when making the policy, it is.

The price changes every 6 months.

State Farm is expensive, and despite their plug-in for my car, they don’t offer any discounts. I have been with them for about 7 years, same vehicle, no tickets or accidents, and they won’t decrease my rate.

Rate hikes are too frequent and too high. Avoid.

Overpriced, don’t receive proof of insurance card frequently, and do not give you a reminder until the last minute.

I still have State Farm, but I'm looking for lower rates with full coverage! I received offers from Progressive, Allstate, and others using the same coverage specs, and prices were lower. I asked State Farm to review my rates and get them closer to the other car insurance offers. So far, I've not received any better offers.

Bait and switch. Then above average pricing.

I’m a good customer, but the price keeps going up and I barely ever reach out to them for anything. I just keep paying my overpriced insurance bill, which is very annoying.

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.

Rates and quotes are too high.

Premiums continue to go up even though I have no claims and drive less each day.

They are using claims from towing against me as well as existing information that they knew prior to giving me a policy. They also refused to give me a refund when I turned in my plates and provided proof. I had no car on the policy, and they wouldn't tell me what credit I had when I added a new car.

My local agent is great. The national level, not so much. I was in an accident two years ago and was told I would get no help from your company even though I was not at fault and the other driver was cited. I never got reimbursed for my expenses to get home to Florida from Virginia.

I'm satisfied with my insurance now because it fits my budget and the app is super easy to navigate to your needs.

I think they treated me unfairly because of my age. I can’t prove it though. I had a backing accident in a department store parking lot. Very little damage to the other person’s car, none to mine. They raised my insurance $40 a month.

Prices are too high. Inoperable cars shouldn't be charged, or at least the rates should be lowered. I'll be in contact soon about these issues.

The folks at the State Farm office are awesome. However, the insurance is way too expensive.

Too much money for the coverage.

I shopped around and found that I was paying a lot. Despite having no claims, my rates kept going up.

I can save over $100 per month by switching to another provider.

My current insurance company offers a premium that is much cheaper for the same coverage!

It simply costs too much money per month for what I get.

State Farm is unbelievably higher than most. Being a 75-year-old woman who drives my car maybe twice a week, I should not be paying $190 a month for a car that’s seven years old with only 18,000 miles on it.

I have State Farm and I have full coverage. They offered me a roadside assistance package for free. However, because I used it 5 times over several years, they are dropping me as a customer. So they give me a package for free, and I use it, and now I'm being punished for it. Really great, State Farm.

Good service but too expensive.

State Farm is okay. You never hear from them until it is payment or renewal time. I have not had a claim in a very long time. They are expensive, and I will change if I get a better price.

State Farm has changed a lot since big losses with forest fires and hurricane losses in California and Florida. They "established" their claims department as a separate profit center, and claims are difficult to get done. Home insurance is also very difficult as well. As an example, five homes around my home have had their roofs replaced due to hail damage. I have been with them for thirty years, and the company is not the same. Profits are driving all decisions! Getting quotes to change.

To add a second vehicle, the price increased, and they are always trying to upsell.

I’ve been with State Farm for over 25 years and it has been a great company to work with. Four months ago, I lapsed on a monthly payment. I received one email notifying me that my payment was not processed, and today, almost four months later, I received a call from my agent saying that my policy had been canceled! No previous phone calls, no other emails, no letters that I saw! Now, to reinstate, the new rate is $100 more per month! Not good business practice, especially for a loyal customer!

Overpriced. Exorbitant policy renewal rates. No new policies offered for Homeowners, Renters, Earthquakes, and Personal Liability. Bundle all insurance needs.

Overpriced. Not accepting new applicants for auto, homeowners, renters, earthquake, and personal liability insurance policies for residents of California. The only way to get the best possible insurance price is to bundle several policies with the same insurance company at the time of purchase.

State Farm is terrible. They raise your rates and then refuse to tell you why when asked. They also won’t return your calls regarding the rate increase.

Watch your agent. He quoted me one thing and charged me another, even after we went over my coverage before I paid.

They were good at first. I've been with them for many years, but their rates keep going up. I started paying $260 for two cars with full coverage and a $250 deductible, but then it went up to $360. So I adjusted it back down to $280, and now it’s back up to $306. I'm definitely going to get another insurance company.

They're okay, but the cost has skyrocketed for no apparent reason.

I find it expensive for someone on social security! No marks on my record and still no discounts!

With 2 autos covered, if you cancel one for 1 day and then reinstate it, you are penalized for the remainder of the term.

I've been with them for almost a year. I'm not getting my driving discount for being a good driver. They are overcharging for coverage on my 2014 Chevy Impala.

Poor response to billing questions. It takes a week to get answers. Charged a late fee when no bill was received.

We are having issues with billing. They can't seem to get all our policies together on one bill, and our bill just keeps going up. I love Seria; she is wonderful and does the best she can. I believe it is the computer system that is the biggest issue.

Rates are very high. I never received suggestions on how to lower monthly rates or answers to why my rates go up monthly.

I would say it's a good insurance company if you can afford the price. It's way too high for me.

Very poor. I’ve had State Farm for years and I just bought a new Tesla, and they want to charge me an additional $100 on top of a rate increase at the beginning of the year. I’m definitely looking for another insurance company. I have no DUI, no accidents.

They keep raising the rates and don't have good customer service.

Agents never notify you when documents are expiring. I was charged a higher premium due to not providing the documents in a timely manner.

They increase prices on some products. If you contact them about it, they never return your call to explain why the price increased. Then they send emails to try and get you to pay the premium. I get tired of paying higher premiums because someone else files claims somewhere across the country. That actually has nothing to do with me. Buy insurance somewhere else.

Too expensive, they keep raising it without any reason.

They raise the monthly rate without letting you know. They just keep raising my rate, and no one will tell me why.
