Allstate Auto Insurance

BEWARE of this company!! I will explain the details of their nefarious mode of operation, so no one else falls in the same trap.

The Allstate agency located is south Florida, Fuentes & Martinez Insurance Group, Inc the worst agency I have ever worked with in the 45+ years driving. They transfer me from dept. to dept. then back to the same dept. No help. Then give you a different number to call back to the same circle of depts. Issue never resolved! they just don't care! Corporate no difference. Trust me you won't be in Good Hands!

My dad has been using All-state since the 1980's when he purchased homes in Utah. And has all his vehicles covered by them. And after all the years he's been a loyal customer. They made a mistake on his auto policy. Back in March, he called allstate to ask them to remove his dodge caravan from the policy because it had engine problems. And he also asked them that same day to insure the Ford Freestar, which was in storage with comprehensive coverage, he requested them to bring it out from storage status and insure it with liability coverage to use as his replacement primary vehicle.

Oralia ** - Customer Service Representative Thomas ** - Duncanville 4/2/2021 Karen ** - Office Manager Oralia and this office staff are liars and lack integrity. I’d never refer anyone to them and cannot wait for my policy to expire. I pray that I can find a more reputable company that offers true services. It may require that I pay more but I’m not nor have I ever been fully covered due to this agency’s negligence. I find it appalling that this company can say that they’ve sent correspondence to me but lack the ability to produce it. They failed to action my policy as requested but placed fictitious notes instead. They do not record calls which benefits their negligence and lack of service. They do nothing to attempt to right their errors but attempt to persuade you to deepen your relationship with them. Who willfully does business with liars? That’s like joyfully playing with the devil, waiting to get burned. Save yourself from Allstate.

My vehicle was hit by another vehicle insured by Allstate in the parking lot. I submitted a claim to allstate, during the process, allstate asked me to provide them with two estimates from different body shop which I did, but unfortunately they paid me half what the estimates came up to. I am very disappointed at the outcome. I will not recommend allstate to anyone.

Filed a claim and provided all receipts. Claim dept tried to say that towing was not covered under my policy and just terminated the claim paying me nothing. Now it's been 4 months later and I went to file a complaint and was sent back into a 40 minute wait to start the complaint all over again. Now fighting with managers to get what is owed to me. Simply put, if you have a claim you will most likely be very disappointed with level of professionalism and won't get your money. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE TO OBTAIN reliable insurance. (FYI, my friend sells ALLSTATE insurance and he said everyone is almost always pissed off when they get the run around)...Just hope it doesn't happen to you!

I received a letter from Allstate Drivewise Program that starting 08/11/2021 they will apply my points to my Auto instead applying points to the Reward payout. There has always been options to use points for Auto policy credit, mail a check or apply to the Reward account to redeem on items. I do not need assistance with my Auto Policy premiums and points were earned to use on gift cards and/or merchandise. I called Allstate Drivewise and was told they were mainstreaming to one options which is crazy. My question would be... are they removing all rewards that the customer can use/redeem their points for? On the Drivewise website there is no mention of the changes for the customer to see.

DO NOT BUY ALLSTATE. This used to be my agent office - for 23 YEARS. I'm a physician, and during the pandemic I sold my house (also Allstate policy - so they knew I sold it) and took a job with the Military. So, relocating physician during the pandemic, working for the Military. I sold my house in April and was moving. I made a car payment also in April, but made the next payment in July since I had my mail on hold trying to find a house to buy (none in Syracuse unless you had loads of cash). Allstate CANCELED my policy in JUNE with my last payment in APRIL, after 23 years. AND THEY WOULD NOT REINSTATE IT, and this office RETURNED MY PAYMENT from July (which I have yet to receive).

Upon filing my auto claim, I was greeted with a claims agent that barely knew English. I had multiple claims agents hang up on me after I had only been on the line for five minutes, for no reason whatsoever. I had a claim agent lie to me about my police report being requested, when it never was, and I only found out two weeks later when I reached out to check on its progress. No one ever called to see how I was doing or to update me on the process. I had to set up my rental car through the body shop because AllState was too incompetent to set it up for me. I had to use AAA to help tow my car.

I work for a well known law firm in the Midwest area. I have seen how Allstate's customer service it's been deteriorating reaching the lowest level over the last years. They take too long to even evaluate the damages of a vehicle to determine if is repairable or a total loss. This process would usually take just a few days while Allstate could easily take several weeks. If the vehicle is determined to be a total loss the process is even worse! They have a service number for the total loss cases and sadly the lack of basic insurance concepts on many of the representatives is impressive.

This is the worst insurance company I've ever dealt with. My car was hit April 18. They didn't respond to the auto repair center to BEGIN repairs until May 19. And then didn't send me the reimbursement check for my rental until June 21. That is entirely too long to take for any of those steps, and there was no communication, no explanation as to why it was taking so long. I would call, leave messages, and get nothing back. Because they were so tardy, I had to keep extending my rental contract out week after week until the bill totaled nearly $4000 (which I had to pay out of pocket because their company doesn't contract with rental agencies, instead they reimburse you which is foolish because not everyone has the necessary funds for costs like that up front) but then learned they were only going to pay a little over $1800, less than half of the reimbursement!

About two years ago we had Allstate try to auto add someone to our automobile policy. This was someone we didn't even know, and despite whatever Texas database they pulled the information from this individual did not live with us. Allstate put the burden of proof and getting it so this person would not be added on us, which is ridiculous. The hoops we had to jump through were insane, and at a very difficult time for our family. It is bad, money grabbing corporate policies that were cited that were used to attempt to justify this. Who I have on my insurance and who I am paying for or not paying for is my business and my business alone, not Allstate's.

I was trying to get a quote for a homeowners and auto insurance bundle to replace my expiring bundle. Allstate without my authorization, removed funds from my mortgage company escrow account to pay for a yearly policy and they actually requested more money than was even on the quote. I never signed any documents and I never received an email even stating what the policy covered other than the conversation with a moronic agent. They also remove money from my checking account for my auto policy without so much as a signed document.

I started shopping around for auto insurance as I was paying almost 350 MONTH to State Farm with very little coverage or options. Allstate provided on paper a much better coverage plan with some really good options for a much cheaper price. HOWEVER! After switching, I had to make an adjustment to my plan. It was impossible to get anyone on the phone. It was either talk with a machine, or go straight to voice mail. There was no other way for me to talk to anyone. I left several voice messages over the course of a couple of hours to get the adjustment made. I gave up. Fast forward 24 hours later and someone calls me. I pretty much told them I'm going to look for a new insurance company. If this had been something serious that level of customer service is not the kind of stress I would want at that time. You are clearly NOT in good hand, with All Fake.

I was involved in a flood almost 7 months ago and I am still waiting for Allstate to honor a claim that has been passed around to at least 5 adjusters with no satisfaction as of yet. I was sent to an allstate recommended repair shop that did not handle my case as they should have from the time I took my vehicle in. After not being satisfied there I was told that I could take my vehicle to a shop of my choice which I did but was told that they would not honor the shop's supplement due to rust which was not the case for my problem.

On Tuesday April 6, 2021 I received a phone call from a Farmer's claims adjuster in Oklahoma City telling me Allstate has filed a claim against a now cancelled Farmer's policy claiming my 2018 pickup was involved in an accident on April 1st. The name of the person who was supposed to be driving my truck is someone I have never heard of. And the company who owns the other vehicle seems to be based solely in Houston, Texas.

I have a claim with them and every time I deal with them it's painful. They might be cheaper in the first year or whatever but the premiums will rise fast and the stress and HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE is not worth it. Here are just 2 examples: Had a claim for our car. Hit a deer. It took months to settle. A lot of passing the buck and no one answering our calls. The "preferred" body shop was beyond terrible. It took us threatening lawyers and taking legal action for them to finally move our car to a good shop and get it repaired. Stress, headache and terrible customer service.

Allstate Auto Insurance claims department used a virtual claims adjuster to determine estimate on my damaged vehicle. My vehicle was parked and empty when a vehicle backed into the front end of my vehicle. The adjuster and repair shop did not communicate apparently during the repair process which lasted three weeks. I, during the process had to pay out of pocket over a thousand dollars for a rental car. Which was to be refunded on completion of repair.

I was a loyal Allstate customer for years. When Hurricane Isaias hit, my roof was damaged. All my next door neighbors, got payment for a new roof or for repairs from their insurance company. Allstate refused and was the only one to claim normal wear and tear. Stay clear of Allstate.

I had them once for one month, when I had to get a new car off the lot, within the 1st month we called another insurance company for a quote "The General" and their monthly quote was literally 500$ cheaper than Allstate's. I don't understand how most people save 700$ "on average" by switching to Allstate when I saved 500$ in one month by leaving them. I am pretty sure they are the same company that owns Esurance, meaning they had to make another company just to offer cheaper rates lol. They are the most, if not one of the most expensive insurance companies out there. Go somewhere else.

The customer service representative Ms. Angelica **, was rude, aggressive, argumentative and went out of her way and her job description to intentionally try to add more tension and complications to the initial problem I called about. She tried lecturing me on her training class experience at Allstate. When I would not give a reaction she got frustrated and began insisting I give her a reason why I felt my car should have aftermarket parts.

Tried to switch auto insurance to a new vehicle. Took me over 2 hours on hold, over two calls, to complete this simple task. Their website and app are utterly useless for anything other than paying your bill-surprise! Couldn’t print out or view insurance card on either. Their technology is stuck in the early 2000’s.

Bad and awful customer service. Lazy and expected me and my body shop to do all her paperwork and calling. Unprofessional and unethical. Tracy or Stacey is awful and just there for the measly 110k she makes a year. Ive always had great experiences with them but because of her, and the fact I caught her in 5 lies, I'm finding a different company to insure me and bad customer service can break a company. They need to find people that like their jobs because she obviously doesn't or she's discriminating against me.

Allstate has been a complete nightmare! I do NOT have insurance with Allstate but a customer hit me. I am required to pay out of pocket cost for a rental something I can not afford just to go to work!

I was involved in an accident where an Allstate insured driver ran into my parked car and caused $13,000.00 damage. Allstate not only did not reimburse the full amount of the rental car needed while my car was in the shop but what they did pay took them 2 months and about 6 phone calls to respond. That was the good part of the experience. The diminished value department transferred the claims adjuster 3 times, did not substantiate any of their numbers with fair 3rd party estimates and did not act in good faith. I will never buy insurance from Allstate and I will tell my story to the world to warn everyone to stay away for their own best interest.

In the 25 years we've had roadside insurance (through our Allstate SUV policy), we've never had to use it. Allstate has been great to work with in other areas of the policy, so I assume this will be good too.

First, they lied to me about the company that was picking up my vehicle. The CSR told me I could go on home, which was 2 hours away and the company would pickup the vehicle with no issues. I had to call back 5 times and the car was not picked up until the next day. I was very disappointed in the service.

Works and reasonable. When I need assistance, it is available. I haven't visited every state, and haven't required assistance everywhere I have been, so I can only say it has worked for me! The best thing one can do is keep your car in good order. That will save time, money and anguish!

My name is James ** and I am 67 years old. I have had car insurance since I’m 16 years old and my experience with Allstate is the worst that I have ever had...I gave them one star out of five only because the review would not proceed if I gave them zero stars.. My daughter's car was totaled November 20 and for two days I heard from the woman who was assigned to the claim Kimberly ** many times throughout the day and I returned each call and gave her all the information that was requested...since November 24 I have reached out to Miss ** no less than five times on five different days and she has yet to return one of my phone calls.

I'm paying twice as much on insurance. I did some checking and found insurance for half the price thru Geico. I bought a car in April and it was sitting for five months before I received temp tags. I asked if I could get refunded. The answer was no. So I'm out over 600 dollars
