My Travelers
The on-road service has been disappointing if you always have to wait 2-3 hours. Last week, I had a jump battery in Hapeville, GA, and the person was there in ten minutes! However, I have had to call my own towing company twice after waiting for two hours for Travelers.

Cost of Insurance
I have been with Travelers since 1969. I'm 80 years old, a Vietnam veteran. Rates are too high.

Seniors Get No Respect
Way too expensive, especially for seniors. I now drive 10-15 miles a day at best. I don't use the vehicle much; it sits most of the time.

Travelers have the best rates
Best rates for auto insurance by far for myself and my wife with our situation and where we live. Rates don't get much better if we bundle our home, so I have a separate policy with a different insurer for my home. Customer service is almost non-existent; 95% of any contact has been through the app or online. I haven't needed to make any claims yet, so I can't comment on that aspect. I have shopped coverage with the competition and have found them to cost more and offer less coverage. So I'll put up with the lack of agent contact to save on premium and stay with Travelers for auto insurance.

Good option
Good prices and coverage. Prices have increased, and the replacement costs have increased. I have a disappearing deductible, but it comes at a cost.

Travelers is a good company
Solid service and coverage with fine service. Nothing to be concerned about.

My Travelers Insurance
I have not had a claim, so I don't know their habits. I have had no contact with any agents since taking out the policy. I am very disappointed with the amount of annual price increases. They offer nice options for payment schedules; however, it's not really a deal breaker one way or another.

Just the same
Travelers is a fair company to deal with. Like all other insurance agencies, the premium goes up if you have a simple claim.

Had no issues with their service. I had one glass claim during my time with them, and it was handled efficiently. I left because I found better coverage for $400 less.

We are retired, Florida rates are extremely expensive.
For us, we are retired and do not put more than 4,000 miles on our car each year. Despite this, the insurance rates in Florida are extremely expensive for us.

Rate Increase for Uncontrollable Circumstances
They provide excellent service and have friendly staff. However, if your credit rating is low and you file a claim, followed by an identity theft incident with financial losses, they do allow you to catch up but increase your rates unreasonably.

Wasn't Ready for the Rapid Responses from Potential Insurers. That was Great.
Once you cancel your rental policy, expect an increase on other policies. Probe deeper with them on this.

I only had one claim. It was handled by Travelers and the repair shop. There was none of the inconvenience of going around to get 3 estimates! It was the easiest claim I have ever had!

Pay A Bit More for Peace of Mind
We have full coverage, including a glass policy and roadside assistance. We had a not-at-fault collision out of state. Travelers handled the claim with the other driver's insurance. Everything went smoothly. My policy amount has increased each year, as have others. I could not find a cheaper policy with the coverage I want.

Not good
My car was in and out of two different shops for two months! I lost my $30/day car rental discount after the first month. I think that discount should be adjusted upwards. There are very few, if any, cars that I could have rented for $30 per day! During the in-and-out of the shop process in the second month, I was finally able to get a car rental for the last repair that was necessary after I expressed my frustration with their policy. The agent I worked with had to request the exemption through her supervisor, who did approve it eventually. My overall experience with this process was frustrating, and I would not recommend these particular agents to others.

Don't insure with Travelers!
Travelers increased my homeowner's premium by $1,800 over a 2-year period and doubled the deductible for wind/hail coverage, even though no claims were ever made or paid with Travelers.

Undisclosed Price Increase
I just received an email saying they were raising my coverage for 6 months by $445. It just said changes were made, with no new policy or pricing details attached. They plan to take the money out of my account over a month in advance. That is very poor customer communication. I am shopping for new car insurance and not paying for a price increase without a reason why.

Get Gap or Prepare to Take a Loss if an Accident Occurs
Partially my fault for not having gap insurance, but they’re quick to total a vehicle approaching 70% of what they value your car at the time of an accident claim. This is guaranteed to be much less than your payoff if financed within the last 2 or 3 years typically. You will feel like it could and should have been repaired for sure, as they disregard your losses in favor of any gains for them.

Cancelled Policy
I had Travelers insurance through you for one year. Despite making no claims, my policy is being cancelled. You called to offer me a different policy that is over five times higher than my previous one. It feels like a bait and switch.

Need Assistance with Accessing Declaration Page
I am 81 years old with limited technical training. I requested a copy of my policy declaration page and received a reply dated 4/4/2025, advising me to go to 'My Travellers Account', under the policy tab via policy documents. However, when I tried, I was unable to find anything about policy documents to check. Since I am technically challenged, I find it to be like 'jumping through hoops'.

Cheaper but you pay in the end
The customer service is not the best. They are non-responsive for long periods of time. They are the cheapest option for the coverages we want, otherwise, I would not choose them. I work in insurance claims and expect more from a large entity like Travelers. Truly disappointing.

Poor Representation
Stay away! I've never heard of a person being dropped because their agent was not representing them. I had informed them that my agent was no longer in business.

Don't think you're all set with full coverage when an accident happens that's not your fault. The first thing they do is send an adjuster who nitpicks everything, even stretching the truth to justify totaling your vehicle instead of repairing it. This is in their own best interest, leaving you financially underwater without a breath, drowned by their actions with thousands to pay. That's not what I call fully covered at all. Where's the protection? Never again.

Rate Increase
I switched to this insurance for a lower payment with full coverage. However, in the two years since switching, my insurance rate has increased by over $120 without any accidents or incidents. The company's response was that the state I live in mandated the raise in costs.

Look Around for Options
Travelers has been reliable for a very long time. However, they are more expensive than most carriers. I stay with them because I have been with them for decades. Lately, I have begun to suspect that they would not favor my loyalty. So, I am shopping for a less expensive policy.

This Insurance Company's Practices are Questionable
I regret not checking the reviews before signing up with this insurance company. I put my trust in my agent, which I now feel was a mistake. The negative reviews about this company are true, and I suspect the few 5-star ratings are not genuine. In my experience, this is the worst insurance company. They seem indifferent to their customers' needs. I won't go into detail, but I'm shocked by their conduct. They cancelled my policy due to their own oversight, without any notice or chance for appeal. I'm baffled as to how this company is legally operating. They seem to be primarily interested in securing the initial deposit and then dropping customers without a valid reason, presumably to maximize their profits without any risk. I believe such practices should be considered illegal. I'm not one to write reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience. I advise caution when dealing with this company.

Quick to Cancel Customers
They are nice people, but not cheap. If you fail to sign one letter, they will cancel you quickly. This happened twice. I did use their app, but I was supposed to quickly sign every notice that came in the mail. They reinsured me each time at slightly higher rates.

They Don't Want to Cover Claims
I've advised others not to use them and if they already have, to switch quickly. I've found others who have had bad experiences with them, including my son who lives in a state 6 hours away.
