I purchased renter's insurance from Allstate last December. I was supposed to be paying $22.89 monthly through automatic payment withdrawal. A few months in, they stopped billing me, then sent me a notice of cancelation due to nonpayment. Next thing I know, I'm being contacted by a collection's agency for this outstanding balance of $45. When I tried to contact Allstate, I couldn't get through their automated system with any department accept sales. I had to speak to five different people over two hours in an attempt to dispute the matter. Finally, an 'executive insurance agent' told me they refunded me the last payment I made, then tried to bill me for two months at once. So they tried to charge me $45 at one time when they were supposed to be taking $22.89. She said my bank rejected it, which makes sense, but I was never notified of anything from my bank.
Also, there was always more than enough money in my account for this bill; plus, I have overdraft protection, so what she said makes absolutely no sense at all. The woman I spoke to would barely let me speak as she basically explained how Allstate didn't do anything wrong, so I couldn't file a dispute. I'm going to have to pay this collections agency $45 I don't owe; otherwise, it will negatively affect my credit score. I feel bullied and swindled. You are NOT in good hands with Allstate.

Their insured lost control of his vehicle, literally uprooting my custom mailbox, wiping out 50 feet of mature landscaping and taking down a portion of chain link fencing. Allstate has been the worst to deal with. I have taken time off of work to get estimates which either they don't show up or call back to even schedule. I've emailed a bunch of photos and sent estimates of people who DID show up to quote the repairs. Allstate finally paid a partial claim sending it to my credit union that I haven't done business with in over 15 years, even though I still have my IRA's and VISA with them. My Zelle account is tied to my Wells Fargo Bank, so I have no idea why they sent it to my CU account?
They don't ask you what bank to send to, they use your email or telephone number of which BOTH are tied to my Wells Fargo Zelle Account? Now I am fighting to get the other half of the claim paid that they said they never received?? The whole claim was sent together. Push comes to shove, I will sue the insured in small claims and Allstate will have to defend him and pay the claim. When I read the other complaints, it makes me wonder how they stay in business! My best guess is they wear you down, hoping you'll settle for less or just go away...What an ordeal. Allstate is the worst.

I am joining the crowd in encouraging everyone to NOT use Allstate insurance for coverage. Their policies are disrespectful to their own insured customers and those persons unfortunate enough to be involved in an auto accident with an Allstate customer. Four weeks after being struck by Allstate insured driver, I cannot get any positive resolution for repair of my car. Allstate has a police report indicating their insured is at fault but will not proceed to have an adjuster evaluate repairs. Review after review indicates they delay and devalue claims for all parties involved. Avoid Allstate at all costs.

If I could only put a 0. Customer over 15 years. Got my car stolen and they dragged their feet and picked apart my policy to only give me $3,000 on a stolen car that was still worth $10,000. Then my roof needed replaced at $25,000 and did the same thing and gave me $6,000 and claimed that it was changing policies across the company on roof coverage. Now a year after canceling they are sending over to collections a $300 bill trying to say my last payment was returned and I still owe another month.

This is still an ongoing issue but my experience so far has been awful. I was hit by one of their insured drivers back on 4/1. It was completely her fault, and liability was assumed almost immediately. They didn't respond to the estimate from the shop for two weeks, and only acknowledged it after multiple calls from me. They've continued arguing with the shop (who says the car is a total loss) and insist that the car is repairable. I've made SO many phone calls following up on this issue and those calls seem to be the only reason anything has happened so far.
All of this fighting is over a very old car with many miles, and I have a feeling that the reason they want to repair the car is because they've left the car sitting at the body shop for so long due to their dropping the ball. We've had a rental car for over two weeks, and are expected to pay up front for the rental and eventually get reimbursed by them. This is a large amount of money we are expected to pay up front for an accident caused by their driver. I would NEVER use them for my insurance.

Allstate operates like a completely dysfunctional organization. Processes are disorganized, communication is inconsistent, and every simple issue becomes a long, frustrating experience because departments don’t seem to coordinate with one another. Nothing feels streamlined or efficient, and it’s clear the internal structure is broken. For a national insurance company, this level of disarray is unacceptable. My dissatisfaction is with Allstate as a company, not with the individuals trying to work within a flawed system.

This complaint is for Brian ** Allstate insurance in Holly, mi. ON 03/23/26,after receiving a notice of a 300 increase in home insurance coverage (second increase in 2 years) that would put the yearly payment to nearly 1800. I switched to a different agency starting coverage when my policy expired from Allstate. I notified allstate that I was changing insurers and that I was not renewing my coverage with them. Adding in they are no longer authorized to withdraw from my bank account. Allstate immediately canceled my coverage (both home and auto that were already paid in full for).
Once I contacted the representative over the cancelation, I was notified that I was to be charged to reinstate the insurance to the renewal date, due to it being canceled by their negligence. Again, I informed the representative and Brian ** himself, that they are not authorized to withdraw from my bank account via email and recorded phone call.. Brian acknowledged this in his response. On 04/07/2026 allstate made an unlawful withdrawal from my account to "reinstate" a policy that is already past renewal and not authorized..

The local branch of Allstate, Tim Baker and his associates in Staunton, Virginia are wonderful, on top of their game and great people to work with! Unfortunately, the people at Allstate Corporate have no idea what the left and right hand are doing. I had a huge collision with a truck that shot across the road the road in front of me that totaled my car on 10-16-25. First, I had to make three taped interviews with three different representatives of what happened. Yep, three.
Then I got an email from the manager that handles totaled cars that if I didn't remove my car from the towing company's lot, I would have to pay storage fees after 5 days. That is exactly why I pay Allstate big money for this very thing. I called Tim Baker and associates and spoke to a wonderful lady, Terri. She called me back within five minutes and assured me it would be picked up the next day.
I asked the lady that handled my claim when I could view the Police Report. She reported the investigation was over despite not having a police report or a statement from the other driver that I had no responsibility for the collision. I asked her several times for it. She kept giving me the party line that it takes several weeks sometimes. I finally called her and informed her that in Virginia a police report has to be obtained from the DMV and not the General District Courts, then sent her the documents from the DMV to substantiate I had paid for it's release to Allstate. Finally she returned my voice-mail about six weeks after the crash. I asked her if she had access to it and she sent it to me.
I went to court on 3-4-2026. The driver fortunately had a "witness", the judge told me I didn't have a preponderance of evidence and was found guilty of Failure to Yield Right of Way. I emailed her a receipt of the $130 I paid the court the and a screenshot of Virginia court case info to facilitate Allstate to pay the other driver's insurance the next day. They have yet to pay them. Frankly I would have fired Allstate Corporate for their incompetence through this entire process except for the fact that Tim Baker and his wonderful associates in Staunton, Virginia are always there for me.

Worse claims I've ever dealt with. I've been on the phone with them 10 times in 48 hrs! My legally parked Jeep was hit by a (Allstate customer) 33' RV trailer being towed through a parking lot. Ripped the passenger side wheel well & entire lower front end of my jeep clean off & ended up under the RV's destroyed double tires. Allstate doesn't care if or how I get to work. Closest rental car agency is 90 miles north on Hwy 101, and is always overbooked. Allstate claims can't seem to understand how rural we are & how far from the I-5 corridor (3-5 hrs) it is to the next closest rental agency! I can hardly wait until the "Virtual adjustor" gets involved with our small town's only local body/auto shop. If I was shopping around for insurance companies, I'd choose a different one, since how an insurance company treats the wronged party, says volumes. I wonder how they treat their own clients! At this point, ANY company is better than Allstate.

Allstate began the claim with so many errors, putting all in my passenger's name, not mine, I told them, it is my car, I was driving, my claim. They are riddled with so many errors. They never respond back to you, leave you hanging. Then gave them some estimates I got for my damaged car that their policy holder backed into me, and they said they needed to do their own estimate, their estimate was low balled and had an error, they did not include the bumper damage in my estimate, by Florida law they are required to fix that and present a fair and error free estimate, but they are not. Their links they send do not work, they send all in my passengers name, they never call back, I called the supervisor of the adjuster twice, she never has called back.
I have about 20+ errors they have committed aside from the estimate error leaving out the bumper damage. Many errors with wrong name, their links/access/websites, and then the big error with the estimate missing damage. Then they tell me to just leave it and the shop will address it. I want all done right on the estimate from the state, the Florida Dept of Financial Services say they have to correct their error on their estimate and make it fair and error free. They are not. I gave them two other written estimates both for $3100-4640 from local shops, then I got a new one today from one of their preferred shops also for about $3000, they say in their estimate $1019. so much lower than all three written estimates I received. I do not think this is fair and to have the error in it that they will not fix by law. FDFS said they can help me if Allstate does not do the right thing.
It is like dancing with the devil with Allstate, they seem so dishonest, riddled with errors from the start, then this huge error with the estimate. If I want to settle with a cash payout, it is so less than the actual damage to my car if I want to get it fixed on my terms. I have read all the reviews on Allstate here, Google, Yelp, etc, all so bad. Bad company!

I have auto pay through Allstate one month they removed 3 payments, I did not give them approve the additional payments. It was right before Christmas. My payments were supposed to be reduced by $50 after the sale and purchase of a car. I called a bunch of times to get the 2 additional payments put back into my account. Only one of the payments was returned to me. They still charged me the higher amount for the next couple of months.
2. They should have returned both addition payments they were not approved and the was NO explanation of why they were removed from my checking account. Allstate had no idea why they were removed.
3 I asked 4 times to talk to a supervisor and it was refused. A supervisor decide to only return one payment and use part of what I over paid as part of my next month payment even though it was not due. This is illegal and very poor customer service I had NO say in the matter.5. The lack of having a manager or supervisor to speak with to resolve issues is horrific. No manager ever called me back.
I feel this company is POORLY run and very dishonest. The lack of customer server is unexceptionable. The lack of concern for the customer and customer needs is awful there is no comparison or accountability. This company is the worst.

We switched to Allstate because they gave us a really good price for our vehicles. We paid $180 something a month for 2 cars. 1 full coverage and 1 liability. After 6 months they DOUBLED our premium. We took one vehicle off and it went UP. Then we got a new pickup. They were taking out $460 something a month for 2 cars. They said they had to take 2 months of higher payments because of when we added our truck. We took the old truck off and our payments were supposed to go down to a little over $300 a month for 1 vehicle. We also have homeowners with them so we have a bundle. But, we are at our renewal time frame next month and they are UPPING our premium another $460 something dollars for 1 vehicle!! This is ridiculous!!
We have not had ANY tickets, accidents, or claims at all with them. I have NEVER had insurance do this before. They said if we get auto insurance from somewhere else then our home insurance will go up 30% and we had a hard time getting insurance on the house we bought because the previous owner we bought it from had several claims on it. I am so frustrated and feel kind of stuck.

Completely useless insurance company. My legally parked car was hit by another driver while I was inside a restaurant.

On top of that, I constantly had to follow up just to get basic updates. They never even assigned me an adjuster or investigator, leaving me completely in limbo with no communication or accountability. This is exactly the kind of situation insurance is supposed to handle, and they failed at every level. I would not recommend this company to anyone.

I had ten more certified roofers come out, all of whom said I needed a new roof. Allstate wouldn't budge. Their claims adjuster, supposedly an independent contractor, came out twice but didn't document the worst of the damage. They came out at the wrong time, both times, so my roofer wasn't there. Got $1500 for roof, gutter, window treatments, siding, and interior damage. A piece of hail came all the way through the ceiling. The actual cost was closer to $15,000.

Worst company to work with. Had a total loss house fire in 2023, turns out Allstate never increased our coverage amount even though the value increased by 50%, so we were under-insured by about 50%, then they tried to only pay out 60% even though it was a total loss. Had to get our attorney involved which then took 13 months to resolve. Now in Nov 2025, we had a no-fault auto accident and even though impact happened less than 10mph and airbags did not deploy, Allstate devalued our car 45% over a 1 year period, decided to Total our car out over our requests not too, paid us less than the note we owed on, and then Allstate took possession of our car.
Now we are out $11,000 we sunk into the car over a 1 year period, have to pay thousands more on the note because Allstate would not cover it, and are down to 1 car during the Christmas season. To top things off; Allstate has increased our home premiums coverage by 50% each year since 2023 and we cannot move carriers due to having experienced a Large Loss claim so we are at their mercy for a few more years. I expect they will do the same on our Auto premiums now too. This is a TERRIBLE company. You are NOT in good hands.

It is unbelievable that a company of this size can operate this way.
