ERIE Homeowners Reviews

When I received my homeowner's policy and it had gone up a significant amount, yet again, I began looking at other insurances. I lived in a rural community and had built a new home 10 years ago. I was told my high premiums were due to being so far away from a fire department or fire hydrant. I had questioned each raise and was told by my Appalachian Insurance Agents that it was because of the cost of supplies going up. I assumed the supplies needed in case my house was totally destroyed. So reluctantly, I called them again because I had read great reviews on Erie and had been with them over 20 years. I didn't want to leave. Well, I told them the homeowner policy had risen to a rate I simply couldn't afford.

We have been with Erie for well over 15 years. This past year we had a tree fall on our garage and I called Erie. They sent a man down the next day to look at what happened and he took some pictures. Within 2 days they called me and let me know they were sending me two checks one for the repair work and one for the removal of the tree that had fallen. Never had a problem with our car insurance either. We had a windows replaced from a rock hitting it. I called the next day they sent down the repair company and they fixed it right in my driveway. Best insurance company.

I filed a claim on my homeowners insurance back in April of 2017 for someone breaking in our home stealing everything and vandalism. The Charlestown police department let these people stay in my home while my family and I had to stay at my sister's until I got a protection order against the perpetrators to have them removed and it took me 10 days to do this. They stole 20,000 dollars worth of stuff. Clothes, shoes, electronics, appliances and damaged our carpet with motor oil, carved curse words in my kitchen floor, cut up all of our mattresses, put holes in my walls and a hole by the attic access door. Estimated between damages and stolen belongings to be 25,000 dollars.

I am very fortunate that I Have Not had to file a claim on my home. I am confident that if there were ever an occurrence Erie would provide me great service as they had to on auto insurance.

I was a customer with Erie over 30 years. My first homeowners claim was a water heater leak which I found, stopped, and cleaned up until a crew I called came. The company Erie recommended could not come immediately. The Erie adjuster estimated the wall to wall carpet replacement by itself would be over $10,000. Due to my efforts and the quick response of my cleanup company, they saved the carpet and the house had very minimal damage, cutting the claim at least in half.

Erie Insurance for Auto, Homeowners, and life is a rip off! Advise anyone thinking of getting quotes to avoid Erie Insurance! I had all three for my insurance needs. When I no longer needed their Auto policy they increased my Homeowner's policy by 46%! Anyone living in Levittown hear this I was already paying $1700 a year because I still have the underground oil tank and I am locked in with Erie because no other company will insure me until that Tank is lifted and a new above ground one is placed. My new 2017 premium is $2537! When I sell this house I will Never insure anything with them!

We have had our rental house insured by Erie Insurance for ten years. Our renter recently moved out without paying two months rent. She left without notifying us. We found our house totally trashed. She had destroyed lovely oak kitchen cabinets by painting over with spray paint, managing to get that all over the appliances. Carpet had spray paint on it and was soiled beyond repair. She had put sticky carpet tiles over the laminate flooring in dining/living area. The glue from these has destroyed the laminate flooring. She had kept a cat in the half bath, which had defecated on the lower walls and floor, and scratched the framing from the door at the bottom. We had never filed a claim with Erie.

We had Erie when we lived in Maryland. Couldn't get it when we moved to SC. Now we live in NC & have it again. We've never had a problem with them!!!

Erie's invoices makes you search for the address of the property covered. I have 5 policies and the annual cost is not on the invoice if you pay other than annually. Moreover, Erie's newly designed website does not give you a one page summary of all policies, due dates, the annual cost and the payments with the amount due.

This is a terrible company, with terrible customer service. We switched to them 4 years ago, and it was a terrible mistake!! We have had 2 small claims on our auto insurance since the switch, and none on our home. We received a letter last week that they are cancelling our auto policy!!! Are you kidding me!! I have tried to call my local office 3 times, and the agent is never in the office. I finally spoke to someone today at the "customer service" number, and he could have cared less about what happened, and said that he couldn't help in anyway! Done, and done. We will take our home policy along with our auto back to the company we had for 10 plus years!

Called Erie about 2 days ago to get a quote. When the gentlemen picked up the phone he seemed as though he didn't want to deal with me right away. He told me it would take an hour or so to get the quote ready and he would call me back which was no problem. 4 hours later I called him back and he said he was just getting around to it. He called me within the hour and gave me the quote. Price wise I was very satisfied but I asked him to email me the quote twice. I still have yet to receive the email.

I have been with Erie for over 30 years. In that time, I had two small auto claims with no issue. Recently, I filed a claim under my homeowners for personal property loss from damage due to lightning. My agent was quick to put us in touch with claims department and the inside property adjuster. We were instructed to complete electrical inspections and begin the work of repairing or replacing damaged property. I specifically asked if there was a list of professionals we had to use or should we go ahead and use our regular vendors. We were told to go ahead and use whomever we wished and that we would have to submit a signed affidavit from a certified inspector along with all of our labor and purchase receipts. We were then told that under our policy, all would be covered. So off we went with the work of inspections, repair, and replacement work. We submitted all required paperwork and waited.

Have had Erie Insurance for our Auto and Homeowners coverage for decades. Always had a pleasant experience with our Erie agent. Have had only one small auto claim and no homeowners claims so I think I've been pretty reliable customer of Erie's. Just recently, we had a water problem in our home and our agent suggested that perhaps we could get some help with temporary housing from Erie because my wife and I have serious health issues and the odors caused by the water problem (and mold) requires we leave our home till repairs are complete.

I opened my homeowner's insurance premium today to find out that after filing a claim, my homeowners has almost doubled. I never received any notice telling me my insurance was going to increase. I pay my insurance yearly. I also have it bundled with my car insurance. I will be searching for another insurance company.

This company Erie was the worst nightmare I ever experience in life. I had been with this company for 10 years. First claim I put in for roof damage they denied it. Meanwhile this is a business. It cost me to lose my tenants due to the damage and also I had a big mortgage on this property. Erie insurance made my life a living hell when it came to my finances. They spent money fighting me to not pay the claim. The roof damage cause more damage on the inside. They investigate the claim for three months my and would not pay. My mortgage went into foreclosure due to me not being able to pay with no tenants.

Prompt bill statements mailed to me with plenty of time for me to return payment. Excellent customer service that has knowledgeable, helpful employees.

Satisfied, because the one time we had a claim, we received fast response and fast payment. They are a local company. Just a phone call away. Have not investigated, but cost seems to be in line or lower than other companies.

The homeowners insurance we have is for a new double wide house, built in 2012! Insurance for these homes are hard to find? With the help of the builder and the bank whom we got our mortgage with, we were lucky to find one nearby! EN insurance is very affordable and spread out our payments for us! Very nice people!

Have been with Erie over 30 years and have had great service and would not change. They are there when you need them and are very accessible. Provide thorough information and rates.

Have had nothing but good experiences with ERIE and highly recommend them. Reasonable rates, excellent customer service. Had weather claim 3 years ago ERIE handled above my expectations.

We have never had to file a claim for homeowner but have for auto insurance with them. They were quick to respond. We have been dealing with them for over ten years. They are reasonably priced and have a great reputation. We would recommend them to anyone. They were recommended to us by others who value their business. They have a great reputation. We use them for other insurances too. They give you a special rate for bundling the insurance.

I have not had a claim in 10-13 years, but it was taken care of promptly. A few years after the claim my agent tried to get me to switch, but I felt loyal. Have been with them ever since. Can pay my payments automatically, so no hassle.

I have not needed to use my insurance for any claims as of yet. The rates seem fair enough. I hope I will never have to use them for a claim. However if I do I hope they are fair. My last Insurance company was not.

Erie provides good coverage at a reasonable rate. We have not filed a claim with them so I do not know what their claim service is like. They are a highly rated insurance company offering many different types of coverage.

They responded quickly and without any problems. The problem was fixed and the contractor paid. It was so long ago I don't remember anything else.

At one time the customer service I received was acceptable but the last few years it has been disappointing. I get notices for increases in rates with little forewarning; the agent is rarely available; the administrative personnel are not warm or very helpful; the website is bare minimum and not user friendly... basically I feel I am on my own.

They offer very good insurance with comparable expense. When I had to file my insurance claim last October, I had no problems. They fully explained everything, and helped me. I received my insurance check really quickly.

Best rates I can find, pays claims quickly. Have never had a problem with them. I've shopped other companies whose rates are always much higher for the same coverage.

Have had no problems with my current insurance company. Their billing process is easy and accurate. Claims process is very good and the agents are friendly.

The insurance cost is very minimal and seems to offer great coverage... Have never had a claim, so I cannot comment on that experience is with Erie -- I also have Erie for my auto insurance and they offer great discounts for multiple policies. I have had an auto claim and it was handled very well and efficiently, so I would assume their homeowner's claim experience would be similar. I have a local agent who is always very easy to reach with any questions.

The agents are very pleasant to deal with. They were very helpful with our property and my father's. We had filed a claim years ago as a result of an ice storm. The adjuster came out very quickly to examine the damage. The claim was processed quickly and we received payment. But we hadn't found all the damage and had to contact him again. He promptly came back out and we received an additional check. I would recommend them.

Last March, I had a lot of water damage from snow sitting on my roof. It affected all 3 floors of my house. Erie sent an adjuster to my house... He was very professional. IT took 5 weeks to get my claim approved. Though I was satisfied with the amount of money, I did not actually get my check until mid May. It seemed like a long time to have to live with so much damage.

We have had our homeowners insurance with Erie for many years. I had one time that I had to put in a claim for wind damage. They were very fast with the claim and I got what I was supposed to have with my claim. Always a very friendly and helpful company.

I've been with Erie insurance for 20 plus years. I've had a few claims and they were very prompt in getting things done in a timely manner. The rates are very good to what I've shopped around for. They have several payment plans that will fit anyone's budget. You get a discount for having home and auto. They also have some excellent life policies that are priced good, including life for children. The customer service people know me and my family. It's nice to deal with a small agency that is committed to customer satisfaction. Would highly recommend to family and friends.
