Is USAA A Good Insurance Company? Reviews From Over 4,267 Customers

Our driving is pretty good, so we have not had any issues.

Work on recording for information.

It's been very good for the last 50 years, but they became expensive last year.

I had a great experience, but encountered some financial difficulties.

I've had no issues with USAA. I am just checking to see if there are other, less expensive options.

Make it easier to connect with a live person who speaks and understands English.

Good people, but the prices are too high!

This is an excellent company.

The insurance is fine, but you are paying a premium for it.

I have been with USAA for over 60 years. I have been very happy with their service and have no intention of leaving. However, as I am not using my car as much as I used to and have never had a ticket, I am looking to get a lower price for my auto insurance. I keep seeing notices that suggest I should be able to get a much lower price than I am currently paying.

The representative performed well, but USAA needs to reconsider and significantly lower their rates. They are not the Nieman Marcus of insurance.

If you're planning to move to Florida, I wouldn't recommend using them.

They were able to save me money.

USAA has been my insurer for over 50 years.

Excellent service.

I have had limited contact with USAA since I started working with them. I wish my car insurance and homeowners policy were less expensive. I drive less than 50 miles a week and feel I am paying too much.

The customer service and claims process are outstanding.

I have been with them for 50 years.

You must be related to military service.

Stay on top of your claims, as there could be a drop-off in communication from time to time.

The pricing is not as good as it used to be.

I have been with USAA for over 60 years. Obviously, I've been very happy. Since I don't drive very far, I have been seeing advertisements for lower prices. However, I have no plans of leaving USAA.

I would recommend considering other options. My experience with them was not positive, even after being a customer for over 50 years.

I have been with USA for more than 60 years. I am very happy with them. I had my car and my home insured for all of that time. I drive very little anymore, certainly well under 50 miles a day. I see ads for much lower rates and I was just looking to see if there are lower rates out there and if USA would give me a lower rate. I have no plans to change my insurance.

Excellent experience with no problems.

Good company.

It's expensive for one person who has never had an accident. I've been with them since 1972. I live in town and drive 12 miles a week.

Expensive.

I've been a member since the 60's and have made several claims on homeowners and auto insurance. I couldn't find a better insurance company than USSA.

Highly customer-centric

The service is great, but it's getting expensive.

The insurance is a bit high.

Be cautious not to have an accident, as my policy payment increased by $300 a month.

They have always been there when I've needed them. They're not the cheapest, but I've never been denied a claim.

The insurance company is great.

There's no place to handle business other than online.

Excellent service.

USAA is an excellent insurance company. They ensure that you are well taken care of and are fully satisfied with their service. Their customer service is very caring and always provides the best care. Today, I called because I had questions about my policies and I connected with a very caring and knowledgeable person named Paul. He ensured that I was satisfied and happy with the service provided by USAA. Thank you very much, Paul. You certainly are a great asset to your employer.

The insurance was good until the price increased significantly.

The service has been excellent. The cost of the insurance could be better, but everything else has been good.

They are cheaper than other insurance quotes so far!

They provide trustworthy and long-term support through all aspects of life.

Expensive.

It was good until we checked the rates of other companies for the same coverage.

I haven't had a reason to file a claim, but for routine questions, they were always available and accommodating.

The rates are very competitive and the customer service is excellent.

My only objections are their rates and the difficulty in reaching an agent.

After 43 years, they have significantly raised my rates. Charging $1 per mile is outrageous.

Great coverage, but more affordable options do exist.

The technology and app are disappointing. The app often freezes or fails to load a page as needed. Recently, the website locked my account for no apparent reason. The company seems to be growing too large and straying from its original core values of serving military members. In my opinion, they spend too much money on celebrity advertising instead of reducing rates.

Amazing customer service.

It's a great company with good coverage, but we are retired and living on a retirement budget. We are unable to continue with the recent premium increases. We need to reduce our expenses!

Excellent

Excellent customer service.

Responsive Insurer.

Excellent rates on car insurance

Excellent - they were quick when I had an accident and were very kind and polite.

The woman who helped me was very friendly and took a lot of time to help me understand what options I had.

I've been with USAA for a while and they were great in the beginning. However, after experiencing some misfortunes, including a few accidents - one of which was my fault, my insurance rates skyrocketed. I can no longer afford them, which is why I'm currently shopping for another insurance company.

The company is excellent for insurance, particularly home insurance. However, be very cautious with their banking services!

Too expensive.

I was overcharged and rated incorrectly.

They act as if they're doing a favor for the military, happily taking your money. However, when you file a claim, they seem to forget about you.

After 56 years of membership and multiple insurance policies including autos, home, rentals, and personal policies, I am treated like a bad risk. This is despite paying thousands of dollars a month for over fifty years.

If you can't make your payment on time, they will charge you. I called to let them know that the day they had scheduled to take their payment did not coincide with my payday. It was two days later and they are going to charge me $15.00. I don't think so!

Keep an eye on changing rates.

Too expensive.

They have doubled my premium within four years.

USAA seems to inflate the replacement value of your home and charges a premium well above competitors' rates. At policy renewal time, my premium became price prohibitive, causing me to switch carriers for over a thousand dollars in savings. While this company is rated as number one by Consumer Reports, it's just too expensive.

The rates are high.

Too darn high.

Absolutely terrible. This company left me without a car for 8 months. They couldn't decide whether or not to total my car after it was already repaired. There were so many mistakes on their end and all I received at the end was a voicemail acknowledging their mistakes and an apology. This was literally the worst experience I've had with an insurance company. I'm traumatized!

They were unwilling to renew my policy.

They're okay, except for the constant increase in rates. Also, at the end of the year, they withdraw a larger amount without any explanation.

They have treated me well, but their prices have increased dramatically this past year, and I am not happy with them at the moment.

I would not recommend USAA. I have been with them since 2015 and have had my insurance on auto pay. However, since November, my payment was being declined due to 'no approval'. I did not receive a single call about this issue and only found out after the fact that my insurance was not active. As a long-time customer, I feel like I have been overpaying every month. My new insurance is half of what I was paying with USAA!

The claims department is terrible. It's completely disorganized and messy.

I had insurance with Geico. I got hit by a woman who was insured by USAA. It was her fault, but they totally screwed me on that claim.

Too pricey.

Poor communication.

Too hard to communicate with.

The price changes too many times.

Very poor handling of claims.

The service on my claim was very poor. I received no return calls.

They handled my claim very poorly. I received no return calls.

Their service on a claim was very poor.

Very high rates compared to other insurers.

Your insurance is too expensive.

They have stopped considering today's financial strain on their customers.

I understand that customers are going through rough times now. I've been a member since 1974. I'm having financial problems and no compassion has been shown whatsoever. This frustrates me, especially considering my great driving record.

The cost of vehicle insurance is too high.

The claim service was horrible. My claim was delayed to the point of frustration. I am so disappointed that I am considering changing insurance companies. My claim has not been completed; I am still waiting to get my navigation repaired, but there has been no response.

I'm not satisfied with the price hike after lowering coverage.

I can never get someone to help me gain access.

Overall, the service was poor. They took away my safe driving discount because I wasn't driving enough.

Their premiums are rising!

I drive less than 5000 miles per year and my rate is over $2000 per 6 months? I'm shopping around!

I thought you were less expensive than other companies, as I am a retired military dependent.

Price increase

Too many price increases without personal contact or prior notice.

You're constantly providing incorrect information and are unwilling to properly cover claims. You're also argumentative and wrongfully raising rates by coding them lower and charging higher!

They raised rates by nearly 43%.

I had a terrible claims experience with them. They did nothing to compensate for their poor handling of my claim; in fact, they increased my premium even more. The claim was for a 'hit-and-run' while my car was parked outside a house and I was in the backyard. It was broad daylight, around 12:43 pm; I had parked at 12:41 pm, which means I barely made it out of the car in time to avoid being hit by this vehicle. I was not at fault. USAA increased my monthly premium by over $100 each 6-month renewal period. I never planned to ever leave USAA in my life. But, honestly, the lack of addressing my terrible claims experience, during which they left my claim open and unattended, was disappointing. My entire claims payment/appraisal process required to complete the repairs on my Infiniti Q50 (around $14,000 in the end) was just sitting there, basically on hold for no reason. When I politely asked for answers to my specific questions regarding why my premium has more than doubled in the past 3-4 years, it seemed like they were trained not to give specific answers related to 6-month auto premium increases.

I was offered a low settlement when I filed a claim for my roof damage from storms.

Being charged $568 per month for insurance is insane. None of your representatives could provide my mother and me with any valid answers to our questions. How can our insurance go up from $238 per month two years ago to over $400 last year and now $568? We were clearly being over-insured for no reason. I was very offended that in order to get any break on my insurance, I would have to have my privacy invaded by a device that tracks my every move while I'm driving. My mom is 85 and has been a customer of yours since she was in her 20s. It's sad that your company cannot retain a customer who has been so loyal in every way, having all of her services through you including house, banking, etc. Despite my dad being in the merchant marines, I feel I was treated poorly by your staff who gave me very poor explanations for why our insurance had almost tripled in two years without any reason. I didn't have an accident. The customer service was really poor and I spoke to three different people and no one could really answer any of my questions. One representative even suggested that if I get OnStar, I would save one penny. Is that supposed to be an attractive solution? You need better trained staff who know what they're talking about, know how to answer the hard questions, and know how to investigate things that just don't look or sound right. Do better, USAA. Love, Jaqi. I have also been a USAA member since I was 15.

They almost doubled my six-month policy without any explanation, blaming it on a rate increase in Florida.

Their customer service, rates, and app leave much to be desired.

The prices for veterans are too high.

I had to make two claims in two weeks due to unforeseen circumstances. Had I only had issues with one of the claims, I would have thought nothing of it. However, it has been nothing but a headache from the beginning of the claim process to now, over two months later, for both vehicles. Oh yes, and they are still not fixed.

I've been with them for seven years. In September, I notified them of my move to Alabama, which I thought would trigger a correction in my insurance records to reflect my new location. After paying three months of premiums based on Florida rates, I realized they were overcharging me by $100 per month. I believe they should have adjusted my premium, but they didn't. I felt deceived by them!

Poor to zero communication. They keep transferring me to others. The claims person didn't read the file for my claim before emailing me that they were closing it.

Increase in premium

Too expensive.

They claim to support veterans, but they keep increasing their prices.

They doubled my payments for no reason.

They're raising my rates. I can't afford the rate as I am on social security!

Poor customer service.

I've had one auto claim. They sent it to an unauthorized shop and used used parts. They left the fender unbolted and took so long that the rental car ran out.

The communication system is horrible!

They have increased my rates and denied me services, even though I have been banking with them since 1998. They have also denied me auto and personal loans. I need individual insurance, not household insurance.
