Eight Days after my sister got paid out, I'm still waiting. Talked to a Rep, "It's in the mail", Called again another day, "It's in the mail". Really? I asked for Direct D and I get "It's in",,, you get it.

My husband passed away with CoVid in December 2021. I called to file the life insurance claim and was sent someone else's policy, a man whose name did not resemble my husband's. I sent in all the paperwork requested only for them to lose it, suggesting it got lost in the mail. (I mailed it at the post office) After much going back & forth, they tell me they need cause of death, not pending. I understand this and have tried to get that specified but things are dragging along. I filed a claim for another insurance policy he had with another company and was sent a check within 2 weeks. No questions asked. It's been over 3 months; AAA are taking their time and screwing up at the same time sending me a strangers policy etc. I need my money. I have another policy with them on someone else but will be cancelling that ASAP.

I applied for life insurance. This company denied me. I've never in my 61 years ever been denied for life insurance. Do not apply for life Insurance with this company if you have any kind of issues. This for when you die. Insurance company are greedy. Definitely not for the people. It's about having to pay out money. Just be prepared. You could definitely be denied. This is inhumane. Awful. What are they here for. My issues are not that bad because I am retired. On disability. I still work though. Unbelievable. Just a heads up for the next person.

I have been a very satisfied customer of AAA for over 50 years, until now. Over the years, we would get promotions for life insurance and/or accident insurance. Years age, I decided, based on their reputation, to obtain accident ins.. A couple of years ago, I had fallen in the house, gone to the ER, checked out, and then went home. AAA was great and I received a check for the ER visit quickly.
In December, my husband Peter **, fell in the house in the middle of the night. When I woke up, he was sitting on the floor, against the bed. He told me he had fallen and then crawled to the bedroom because his side hurt. I asked him if he hit his head and he said he did not think so, however, within 3 hours he was hallucinating, talking about birds in the room and the walls moving and opening up to show stairs going up into the attic, which we do not have. At that point I took him to the ER.
We told them about the fall, his side hurting and the birds, forgot to tell them about the walls moving. He said that he had been in the bathroom and when he put the light out, and turned and stepped into the bedroom carpet, he fell. He thought he had been dizzy and didn't hit his head but his actions didn't indicate that. He said he just felt stupid that he fell and said the first thing he thought happened. The doctor's were concerned, especially because his tests indicated he may be bleeding internally. He was admitted, and over 5 days he was given a needed blood transfusion and subjected to all kinds of tests, upper endoscopy, colonoscopy, lots of imaging etc. but the discharge summery indicated that they never did find the bleeding site but they thought he was stable enough to go home.
I filed a claim and we were promptly paid for the ER visit. However, then they wanted the discharge summery, which I sent them. Then they wanted a copy of all his records for that visit. They received those and when I talked to them March 10th they said the records are still under review. Said should have decision soon. Called many time after that. They kept saying decision soon. Said someone would call me. No one ever called. Even his discharge summary said that they had been unable to find the source of his bleeding, which was the reason they kept him and gave him blood. April 20th I talked to customer service and they said a decision was made and they would notify me shortly. May 21st I called again. Claimed decision letter was sent out April 20th, the day they told me it would be weeks before it would be sent out. I never received it.
She said she would email me a copy, which she did. It was a rejection letter that was full of inaccuracies. I have been a AAA member over 50 years, we have had this accident insurance for years and this was only the 2nd claim we have filed on this policy, one for me and this one for him. This took 5 months and there is no reason why. I am going to fight this because I am sure this was the wrong decision and I bet on social media, there are more people with the same complaints and I am going to try to find them. We deserve better. Indicate that. He said he felt stupid because he fell.

I bought the life insurance through AAA. Thought it was good. Took it to the funeral home. He sent it in that said it pay back what I paid. Said never had it long enough. Never buy life insurance from AAA. I'm waiting for them to pay me. It's been over 2 months. No check yet. Why are they not answering me? I called that said 10 to 15 days but I feel I should get full $10000 but I bet I won't. They are not who they say they are so don't buy from AAA Life. My school Life ended up paying right away.

I have been a longtime member of AAA so I got a sort of discount but it wasn't really all that large. I get all sorts of mailings from other companies and the rates really don't vary among all of them nor do they differ much from AAA. The coverages are basically the same. The only reason I chose AAA is because of my convenient and long-term relationship with them although I know they'd not care if I left.

Our dad passed away on July 13, 2020. We notified AAA Life on July 14, 2020. Since he had not had the policy for two years, we were not entitled to a death benefit but were told we would receive a return of paid premiums. It has been six weeks and AAA Life has all documents they need. I have called four times over these 6 weeks, and each time I am told it will be a week or two more weeks. After reading these reviews, my dad obviously did not read them before he purchased this policy. I would never refer this company to anyone, especially after we have been given the runaround for six weeks now. It is very sad that a company would do this to people they trusted with something as important as life insurance.

I initially called AAA Life Insurance to request a copy of my policies. Upon doing so, I was told that a copy of each would be sent via mail and email. The email never arrived. Because I needed the policies immediately, I called back to ask if they could please send them via email and was told that not only had the previous employee not sent the documents but that this employee could not send it. Try as she might, each time I tried to access the secured document, I received an error message. I was placed on hold to be directed to a supervisor. I hung up after a few minutes and called back. The supervisor sent the first document as a pdf and the other secured. That passcode did not work either.
I called back and the manager would not speak with me, claiming to be occupied. Someone else came to the phone and after berating me and claiming it was my fault, she hung the phone up in my face. I called back and spoke with another gentleman who tried but was still unable to assist me. The passcodes didn't work. I kept requesting additional codes via the site until finally one worked and I was able to download the document. This was a huge lesson for me. I was on the phone with them six times between the hours of 12:24-2:13 p.m. This was the most awful experience I've ever had with customer service.

If I could give them zero stars for their review, I would. DON'T USE THEM! It was nothing but incompetence and aggravation right from the start. We had decided to get some additional life insurance for myself and my husband. Once they processed the applications, they added my checking account to someone else's policy and we have been paying for him. I've been trying to get the refunded money back since the June. I've called multiple times and no one can do what they say they'll do in giving us back the money. I'm currently on the phone with the same rep that I spoke to on July 9th (today is July 20th) and he's not giving me much as far as help. I had to put a block on my checking account so that they wouldn't charge us anymore for this other person's insurance. Yet they are still charging my account.
Multiple calls and multiples days of aggravation and I'm still not getting a refund. Who do you have to call for help? Now he tells me I have to take the stop off of my account in order to get a refund. REALLY?? And what so you can charge me again? I’m posting this review on every website that I can to let everyone to stay away from AAA Life Insurance. I hope to get this resolved soon.

Issue Resolved - I would like to thank AAA Life Insurance for immediately responding to my earlier concerns made. A representative from AAA Life Insurance had immediately reached out to me, researched my concerns, and resolved my issue.
Original Review: April 30, 2020
All my troubles beginned when a fast-talking sales agent by the name of Zachary **, from AAA Life Insurance, Omaha, NE, called me to sell me life insurance. This happens to be the very same company that would not qualify me for this same exact life insurance the first time I applied for it last year. When I first applied for insurance, the outside company that AAA had referred me to, never came out to finish processing my examine and because of that I canceled the contract.
Long story short, in light of COVID 19, AAA Life aggressively started seeking people out and decided to contact me knowing I still might want life insurance and yes, for the first time, while he still had me on the phone, Mr. **'s fast talked & scammed me into purchasing Flexible Universal Life Insurance. While he still had me on the phone, he had me go to my email that very moment, and had me sign the email he had just sent me allowing AAA Life Company to automatically remove $347.26 from my account each and every month. When I realized that he sold me something that a woman my age didn't really need, I had submitted a written request to cancel the transaction.
When Mr. ** would not cooperate with my written cancellation request, I then contacted my bank-- and the bank was also not able to get my moneies back because I had already signed the EFT before canceling my contract. Here's the thing --the slick salesman that he is, Mr. **, had already started debiting my checking account the very next morning from speaking to him on the phone - (I spoke to him on a Friday evening and when I woke up early Saturday morning the money was already debited from my account --that's just how fast he moved. Please help me if you can. I have all correspondence as proof. Plus I have a letter received Mr. **, who emailed me promising to give me a full refund of all my monies. This letter was received and dated April 20, 2020, long after my bank already tried to get my money back and failed.

I’ve had a policy with AAA for years, I’ve overlooked mistakes and tried to work with them yet now widowed can't risk my life policy being in jeopardy when I have a sick kid to think of. This last incident happens during this crisis. My agent could it quoted wrong payment due date yet he informed aaa of his mistake and requested exemption of case of interruption of my policy yet the management wants to apologize yet have me reinstate which means I’ll have no policy 30-60 days depending a new physical. This is maddening at a time we are in. So I’m done with aaa. They screwed me up twice before. Not getting a fourth chance.
In a crisis honor your policy and mistake and take care of your customer not rob them of their policy. I think they want to increase my rate since I’m older or trying to cancel policies due to crisis. Who knows? It’s terrible way to conduct business for sure. Be aware of them goal. Seems to avoid honoring people policies and keep you paying higher rates by forcing you to reinstate often. SAD!

My opinion is that the agent I dealt with was very professional. She works out of the Jackson, Michigan office and her name is Mary **.

Much better than the service from Farm Bureau Insurance - Lapland's Battle Creek office as they were rude, made errors, overcharged and did not focus on customer service.

Was a term life insurance policy holder for 15 years. Called once in 2012 and another in 2018. Contacted AAA customer service phone number then was transferred to a licensed agent. They never informed me that I couldn’t convert after 80% of policy paid or year 2016 / age of 65 whichever comes first. Please beware of AAA. They promised to review my policy with their mgmt team with a callback. Never called me back after 15 years of being a paying customer. They’re happy to take your money for payment, but no follow through to keep customers. They won’t convert my term policy after I was told by two licensed agents over the years I could convert until end of term policy. Don’t trust the licensed agents. They transfer you to via phone and their mgmt team speaks to you like you’re stupid.
Doesn’t matter what they promise you over phone read every single word of your policy. Two words in my booklet of 12 pages typed out and mailed to me 15 years ago even though their licensed agents told me different has prevented me from converting my policy. 15 years of paying on my policy you would think they would call me back. Two different managers told me a review would take place of my policy to convert. They would listen to my phone calls recorded with the licensed agents over the years and the management team would call me back. They never called nor written any response to me when I was told would get a call back in 48 hours. They don’t care about anything except your payment. Please be aware of their tactics, poor customer service and lying licensed agents.

I opened a whole life policy by phone. I authorized one premium to be deducted from my account for the first payment but they debited two payments. I called and spoke to a representative who verified that AAA had withdrawn duplicate premiums and he told me he'd contact the billing department and have one payment credited back to me. After 5 days when I hadn't received the refund I called again. This time the representative said there was no record of AAA having drawn more than one payment and there was no notes on the account showing that I had ever spoken to another representative. It's not that an extra payment was drawn in error but that there is no record of the conversation with the first representative I spoke to who confirmed that I'd been overbilled. I am cancelling this account. I would not recommend doing business with this company.

I paid on a term AAA policy for fifteen years, which expired when I was 75. This was for 25,000. At age 75 I was given the option of changing to a 10,000 permanent life for considerable more premium money. I took the offer and am now 79. I called today to check that everything was ok. Guess what. It was never changed. 25,000 policy lapsed when I was 75. No record of payments for the last 4 yrs. I always thought I was pretty sensible. Guess not.

This year I turned 55. My insurance premium was $43 per month. It has now been changed starting the 1st of the year to over $70 a month. I have had this policy for over 15 years. I cannot help but think this is a way to get me to cancel the insurance and they get to keep the last 15 years worth of premiums. I also had the same instance with my work supplemental life insurance and also cancelled that. This is ridiculous, as I get older income will become more limited with retirement and I will not be able to afford any life insurance at all!!!

I went into Autoclub to take care of my car insurance and stopped by to get a life insurance quote. I revealed information to the agent as the interview process proceeded. The agent ended up upset, called me a liar several times, went on to say he gave up his lunch for me and how I wasted his time and refused to give me the free gift offered for the quote. I proceeded to ask for my information back which he refused and then I spoke to a supervisor. The supervisor was very nice and gave me a bag explaining how wrong the agents behavior was toward me as I sat there and cried from the abuse. The agents manager then called explaining his behavior was a result of people not giving information as fast as he wanted it.
Needless to say I am shopping quotes online and will not be buying life insurance from them. Especially after these reviews. Autoclub has usually been very dependable but maybe they should stick to car insurance only. I would try Fidelity or New York Life and check with ConsumerAffairs. If I had only dealt with that kind supervisor in the first place I'd have a different opinion about it.

I purchased term life insurance from AAA over couple years ago. My mistake was to place it on automatic payment from my credit card. Suddenly the payment they were taking from my credit card went up 50%. I called to AAA life insurance phone# 800-624-1662. I was explained, that they sent me a letter informing about my payment increase. No such letter was ever received by me. I wasn't aware about the increase. In short: no refund, no credit was issued to me. I cancelled the policy. It wasn't the cheapest policy anyway for equal coverage. I definitely do not recommend purchasing of the life insurance coverage from such scam companies like AAA and similar. Get the policy from reputable insurance company. Thank you for reading.

AAA was easy to deal with and prompt with the term life insurance payout for the policy owned by my recently-deceased husband, John. They were more than willing to directly deposit the payout amount in my checking account for faster service. I was pleasantly surprised, also, to read in the policy (on practically the last page) that a surviving spouse that is the beneficiary of a term life insurance policy for their deceased spouse is entitled to a free lifetime AAA membership if they apply within 180 days of their spouse's death. I feel confident about the term life policy I have on my own life, and AAA Life's prompt response to my claim has helped a family friend make his decision to buy a term life policy on his own life.

I have a Life Insurance Policy with AAA Insurance that has been active for several years. It has an "Auto Pay" feature where my Credit Card is charged quarterly. This quarter, their computer charged my Credit Card on the 15th (as scheduled) and then again on the 17th for the same amount. I discovered the duplicate charging and called AAA Insurance and was told there was a computer "glitch" and my CC would be reimbursed. A week later, no credit to my CC so I called again. Was told to be patient and they were working on the problem.
Now 10 days later and still no credit to my CC. Imagine me being 10+ days late with a payment...they'd cancel me. With all the wealth AAA/and their Insurance CO has, you'd think they'd have a competent IT department to quickly fix such errors. Kinda makes you wonder about changing Insurance Companies and brings back (and into focus) some of the horror stories about Insurance Companies we've all heard over the years. Not exactly or even remotely close to the service AAA claims to provide their customers. I'll think twice in the future when searching for insurance needs.

I responded to a flyer for AAA term life insurance and was hounded by an agent for months. Never seen anything like it, at one point, he reached out to my wife and gave her a horror story about what could happen if I didn't call him back and died without proper coverage (an unnecessary approach). I eventually did decide to check their rates against another insurance carrier (on the promise he would not call my wife again), went through the whole testing process and after all that -- was denied?!
While that is certainly their prerogative to deny a policy, I am in good health and was actually offered a 'preferred rate' policy from the other carrier. Same set of data, same medical records -- two highly different conclusions. Had I not applied for the other one simultaneously I would have had to report a history of being 'denied' - which would of hurt my chances to be covered elsewhere. Out of curiosity I called the AAA underwriting dept which could give me no specific answer as to why I was denied. I am now covered elsewhere and all is fine. Just be careful with this company -- as they can hurt your chances elsewhere.

I am 56 years old and thought I would buy an extra policy now that I have a granddaughter. I received an application through the mail and put in my bank account information, for automatic payments. AAA decided to take out payments for 6 months. All of a sudden I get a letter saying I was denied "because of information in your Milliman IntelliScript Report. The information contained in your prescription history report assisted us in determining your eligibility for our life insurance". These were the exact words. What?? Then why did you take out $369.00 out of my bank account??!! I called, to try to get an explanation and the GIRL I spoke with transferred me to customer service, because apparently it was beyond her expertise! I was on hold for 8 minutes and 39 seconds, then disconnected!
I called back, and again the same thing happened. I then left 5 different messages every day for a week. STILL HAVE NOT gotten a response! If I was denied why did they take out the money and won't even give me the decency of a refund OR EVEN ACKNOWLEDGE ME by returning my phone calls? I know $369 might not be a lot to some people but I am on a fixed income and it's a lot to me. This company has the audacity to call themselves an insurance company with great customer service! I've read other reviews, and the way they treat people who have already lost a loved one is horrendous, especially when they are already grieving!
Thank God I found this out now, before my death. I would hate for my family to have to go through that! Eventually I will get my money back, even if I have to go through an attorney. I hope people stay away from this so-called Life insurance company for the sake of their loved ones! No one should have to be treated this way! My impression is that they are ONLY concerned with getting the money, but don't want to pay their part when the time comes! Good luck to anyone who stays with them!
