Farmers has been very helpful with any problems or questions we have had. Premiums are competitive and the company is always looking to help us save money. When we have had a claim they have been fast, friendly and have paid our claim in a very fast manner. Farmers has a variety of services from auto, life, home, RV and also have specialty insurance to cover our firearms. We have been very happy with this company and would recommend them to our friends.

After researching many companies, I found that this was my best one for me. They agreed to let me pay every 6 months with no problem. When I was filling out the paperwork, and did not understand, & asked for help, the representative was very understanding, & he made me very comfortable & willing to explain it without any hesitation. I would recommend anyone of my friends to use them without any hesitation!

I purchased and had this policy since January 8, 2007 automatic drawn from my account. Now my understanding during this time told by my agent that I could come out cheaper if I did so. Anyhow, straight to the point I just found out the agent that sign me up had passed away only with the consumption of me calling to speak to him. No notice sent out whatsoever.
Please understand the service through him was great. He kept me informed and even send out holiday/birthday cards so I have to say the service was good then. No problem until now. Anyhow, I'm no longer working and had to contact the Farmers to let them know I closed my account due to my finances but I still paid my monthly payments using my husband account which by the way they took for two months. Now they're telling me they can't accept. I called to make payment and they wouldn't take it telling me the card had to be in my name. No warning about the change that was made. To top it off there isn't any Farmers Insurance nearby whatsoever! I'm looking into finding insurance elsewhere.

They made every experience seem like I was their only client. My agent always remembered my name and my face and they are located very close to me. Their pricing is very competitive as well and will always let me know if there is something I can do to get my rates cheaper yet.

They are very easy to work with. The product line includes everything that I need to meet my needs and keep my family financially secure should the need arise. Our agent works with us to find the most appropriate coverage. They will also contact me regularly to see if there have been any life changes that might necessitate a change in my coverage. They are very proactive, which means that I don't have to worry about anything or do any research of my own.

I have a term life insurance policy. I wish when I bought it I was more informed. I would have bought a universal life policy instead. My term policy expires in 3 years and then I will switch to a universal life policy and also up my coverage. My original policy was $60,000 since it was just me, but now that I am married I will probably switch to $200,000.

Very easy to get signed up. The customer service is great. Very easy to navigate through website. I would recommend it to family and friends. My life insurance policy was easy and carefree to get established. It was offered through my work. So this was the easiest way for me to get qualified. Very thankful I did. You never know what life may throw your way. It's a lot better to be prepared with a good company.

We purchased life insurance at an early age to insure the security and safety of our children. We have received excellent advice over the years regarding adjustments to meet our financial needs and that of our family. The peace of mind that was provided by the purchase of life insurance is truly priceless. Thankfully, we have never had to collect on a policy as we are both healthy.

I cannot say enough for the excellent quality customer service that I've gotten with Farmers Insurance. Not only did the agent take the time to discuss my life insurance needs, but explained the different kinds of coverage and made a recommendation as to what kind of policy would best suit my needs. After I purchased life insurance my agent called me back for the first few months to remind me about my payment coming out of my account. I have no doubt that they'd help me out no matter my insurance needs are. TY Farmers!

I am really satisfied with my life insurance. At least to know I am in good hands when and if I pass away. I would definitely recommend this life insurance. One advantage of my life insurance is that it is affordable. They are also lenient. Another advantage is the well-respected people that work there get your answers straight to you. If you're looking for good, affordable life insurance call Farmers!

The process was easy to file for. I like having a representative that is here in my home town. If I ever have questions he will answer them for me. I can either mail my premium to their address or have it deducted out of my account. I have never had to file a claim but I know that if I needed to they would be right there for me.

They were good about reviewing my life situation, and recommended an appropriate level of coverage.

Farmer's is a company I am fairly new to and I have been pleased with them as they are delivering on all the promises made when I was comparing companies. Customer Service is always eager to help and polite and respectful. Their rates are fair and they have all the modern luxuries that make a company fit with the times. They have solid ads that are warm and since I joined I have had no regrets. I have had very little problems with them, but rare ones I have had have been cleared up with one phone call and that is extremely rare these days.

Be very careful with your bank information with this company. I tried to get my husband's auto withdrawals changed to a different bank account (which they never did). I had to make several phone calls to finally get this done correctly. The correct bank information that I gave them to charge for my husband's policy they used to charge for someone else policy. I applied myself for life insurance with this company and never heard back from them, then one day they called to verify my date of birth and had the total wrong year. Therefore they could not get my medical records.
So I applied a second time with still no response. I called them and they said that they could not insure me and said that my agent was suppose to get ahold of me which they never did. I gave up and got better insurance elsewhere. I am glad that I got insurance elsewhere because after what they did to my husband's policy and my bank account. I do not feel I could trust them with any information.

My husband is the primary insurance holder but we are both listed. We have not been with them long, but I find the agents to be very professional. My husband was with State Farm. We were buying our Toyota Sienna and we could not get an agent on the weekend in order to close the deal. Farmers stepped right up so my husband signed up with them. We had questions twice already and an agent always returned our calls.

Had FNWL Insurance for more than 20 yrs. Every year in December, they sent me a premium notice to pay for the next year. This year they didn't tell me years before that my premiums was on the rise, they told that I had enough in my cash value to pay for it this year. They said I ran out of cash value so they needed more. I paid them $500 more premium to keep it in forced I thought, for the rest of the year. Now they sent me another notice for $600. If I had known when the premiums went up I could either take my cash value out and look for another life insurance plan. Instead, they siphoned all my cash value out without me knowing. Hope this don't happen to anyone else.

I recently received a bill for interest on a 12,000 loan that has been accumulating from the 90's to 24,053.72. I contacted Farmers and was told I was sent an audit of the account yearly. LIE!! If don't pay 1924.30 by the end of the month they will cancel my insurance. They have received $32,000 from premiums and I was told today that premium money didn't receive interest. We were never told about the pitfalls of this policy from Mr. Turpen, the Farmers Agent in Albuquerque, NM. Of course they want more money since the face value of the policy was only 50,000.00. This month is the first time we have heard from Farmers since 1987. Perhaps we should have taken a closer look at the policy. However the interest was never mentioned to us whatsoever. I have tried to get them to negotiate with us to no avail. They are sending to us an audit of the policy. My wife also has a policy with Farmers.

I strongly believe that Wayne Bradshaw misrepresented the Universal Life Insurance product to me. Either he lied or omitted facts about the policy, Wayne either did it by negligence or error but either way he is responsible for me losing over $3,200.00 dollars in penalty fees. I was tied to a 14 year maturity date. I believe he tricked me into purchasing this UVL because he would get the most commission off it. Wayne failed to do an illustration and explain this policy to me. All he said was Universal Life Insurance Policy as a piece of candy wrapped in life insurance! I started off by paying $250 per month on a policy for myself only. I invested well over $7,000 and in the end all I got was $1,800. Totally screwed me. I called to complain to Farmers regarding Wayne and his misrepresentation, but all they said was "you signed the contract therefore you are not getting any money back!" Completely screwed me.

Pre-March 10, 2011; March 3, 2011 made contact with Elsa ** of Farmers District Office in Edinburg. March 4, 2011 sent request plus $10.00 for a duplicate copy of Policy. I was looking for my insurance policy since my wife and I were having a Family Trust prepared for us by William Ellis, Esquire. Pre-February I received notice that policy was "Frozen". Since I did not know what that meant my wife called the Framers District office to obtain a copy of the policy with the Policy Number printed on the notice letter. March 10, 2011, I received copy of Policy and requested assistance from District office to explain policy since I need to know whether to place policy proceeds into the Family Trust or leave kids as Beneficiaries.
Time passed, so on July 27, 2011 sent a fax to Bob **, a friend with whom I had previously worked with, asking for help. In August 2011 I received a call from the District Office saying the District Manager, Rick **, was reviewing policy and would get back to me. On August 18, 2011, Rick ** came to my office (by appointment) to discuss my insurance policy. He indicated that the "product" was not one of the better plans and that I need to convert to a variable universal life policy to reach the goals originally explained I would obtain through the policy. I informed Mr. ** that I was uninsurable because of my previous medical history and went into confidential description of my medical history with him. Mr. ** assured me that since he was the District Manager he would make sure I passed the medical exam regardless of my then present physical status.
At the end of the meeting he assured me he would get to me with a proposal I could live with and meet my insurance goals. I waited for his call but after a month of waiting and calling to check status I just gave up. I hope you will be able to help me clear this matter up. I have sent you a copy of the information I received from Farmer's along with a copy of the policy to your office via runner. Should you have any further questions please feel free to contact me, my personal number is **.

I purchased a whole life policy from Farmers in 1990. At that time I was told that one of the benefits of this policy were that the premiums wouldn't increase. I paid my premiums for more than 20 years and was recently notified that the monthly premium would be increased, by approximately 50 percent. The options I were given were to pay the increased monthly premium, or the policy would expire.
Based on what I was told at the time I opened the policy, I chose not to pay the increased premiums. I feel I was mislead by Farmers Insurance and should be entitled to continuation of my policy at the original premium, or a refund of the premiums I paid.

On November 11, 2010 I applied for life insurance through Farmers New World Life Insurance. I truthfully and thoroughly completed the application at the Farmers office in South Holland, IL of which the agent's name is Natalie Barnes. The application, I was told would be submitted under MetLife Insurance. At any rate, I recently received a letter from Farmers New World Life Insurance Company stating I was denied due to a Kidney Transplant.
I believe I have been discriminated against due to a pre-existing illness that I was diagnosed with roughly in 1994. Nevertheless, I had a Kidney Transplant 9/27/06 which has caused my health to improve significantly so why am I being penalized? If insurance companies are going to continually deny individual’s insurance needs based on pre-existing illnesses then how are people like myself, suppose to obtain life insurance? It shouldn't matter if a person has undergone organ transplants, has cancer, diabetes, or HIV/AIDS; this is definitely unfair, and unjust treatment.
