Most Positive Review
Needed a certain premium due date, but didn't get setup right. Also had trouble with NGI internet screen. Finally at second installment got due date right. They have only one home screen and everything else is PDF popups to display. Put in to allow popups for NGI, and all is well. For future development, ongoing info like payment due dates and amounts should be auxiliary screens. Same for policy info, contact info, cars and drivers. The policy and information and workings once started are very clean. Online payment is better than Progressive, State Farm, or Geico. Processing is almost instantaneous which beats many companies. Phone service is answered fast, cheerfully and competently. For me, the cost is excellent. No claim service to rate so far.

They are the worst insurance company I have ever worked with in my entire life they do illegal things and get away with them they manipulate policies that are already in place they nickel and dime you to death until you can't afford it the policy that you have. They didn't even deserve a woman but there wasn't anything less than that
