    This company dropped my insurance after a year for bogus reasons, then proceeded to bill my mortgage company anyway, causing my mortgage payment to increase substantially and now will not issue a refund.

    Lemonade dropped me after four years of on-time payments—not because anything changed, but because they’ve decided they don’t like insuring actual homes in California anymore. Their reasons? A house they've insured since 2021 suddenly became uninsurable because it's... has a pierced foundation (it always was), has PVC plumbing except for a few cast iron drains, and a 12-year-old EXTERNAL water heater that couldn’t endanger the house if it tried. We spent $6,000 on professional tree work and have the receipts—but Lemonade shrugged and said "brush proximity."

    This is what cherry-picking looks like: using invented or exaggerated pretexts to quietly exit markets while pretending it’s about “underwriting risk.” Don’t believe the branding—Lemonade is just another insurer with a PR team and a pink app. If they can do it to me, they’ll do it to you. Insurance is about trust. You can't trust these guys.

    We understand how frustrating and disappointing it must be to have your policy non-renewed after years of being a loyal customer. The decision to exit certain markets or adjust underwriting guidelines is never taken lightly and is often based on broader risk assessments that can impact entire regions. We genuinely regret any distress this has caused and thank you for your feedback. We're committed to learning from experiences like yours to improve our services.

    In the beginning they promised to be unlike other stodgy insurers. They were going to save money with low overhead and a new Ai method of customer contact. They got great initial reviews, had low premiums, and we were enticed. Things have changed. Lemonade is still in the red but expected to be in the black by 2026. How? They are scurrying around trying to find ways to limit losses. A new tool is their required "self inspection" which is simply a way to cull out customers they don't want. Do you feel comfortable sharing pictures of the inside of your home? To me it's a privacy issue like giving driving data to an auto insurance company. You can get a discount with them if you do but can still be insured normally otherwise. Here it is required.

    I had them for many years. I opened a claim and then closed it the next day since the deductible was high. They canceled my renewal due to more than $1M guidelines by the underwriter. I never had any claim and my mortgage and the cost of rebuilding will be less than $1M. I have escalated this and I am sure the company will face a lawsuit with these overnight decisions to cancel the renewal.

    I have worked in Mortgage for many years, when Lemonade came along with much lower prices many customers wanted to try it. I started with Lemonade last year and had no issues. I just got my renewal notice and coverage went from $1,600 a year to over $3,000. I have never made a claim, when I reached out to them they said replacement costs went up. I checked around with other companies and will not renew with Lemonade.

    We are currently displaced due to a pipe bursting and collapsing our ceilings. It’s anticipated that we’ll be in a hotel for several weeks until all the work is complete. From the moment I tried to file a claim to date, this place has been nothing less than a nightmare. Nobody should ever have to experience grief on top of grief when dealing with an unexpected disaster and their insurance company. I just filed a complaint with the Attorney Generals office and I’m filing with the PA Insurance Commission. This company is out for SELF GAIN and has ZERO respect for their customer's situation. I know for a fact a lot of the things they’re doing have to be illegal in the insurance practice. Save yourself the grief and get covered under a reputable business. Their name Lemonade speaks for itself.

    I have been using Lemonade insurance since we purchased the home in 2022. We have had nothing but difficulty with this insurance firm, and we have not even had to file a claim. Poor communication and policy renewal issues have been a constant issue. They have overcharges, tried to cancel my insurance due to an error on their part (they admitted to both and apologized), and have repeatedly asked for documentation that has already been provided. The only way to communicate with the company is via emails that are from a bot, or via bot chat on the poorly designed smartphone app.

    Avoid Lemonade Insurance at all costs. My experience with them has been nothing short of a disaster. My claim was closed without my knowledge, consent, or any resolution that addressed the actual cost of repairs. Despite repeatedly reaching out via emails and calls, my assigned adjuster has completely ghosted me. Their blatant lack of professionalism and accountability is appalling.

    The settlement they offered wasn’t even close to covering the repair costs—just half of what is needed—even though I submitted detailed evidence and multiple quotations. To make matters worse, this was hurricane-related damage, and the scarcity of contractors means delays are critical. My contractor is fed up with the runaround Lemonade has created, and I am now at risk of losing them entirely because of this company's refusal to act quickly or responsibly.

    Lemonade's complete disregard for urgency and fairness is unacceptable. They’ve made a stressful situation exponentially worse, and their incompetence and indifference should serve as a warning to anyone considering their services. When it comes to insurance, you want reliability—Lemonade is anything but. I deeply regret choosing them and would never recommend their services to anyone.

    I got Lemonade Homeowners Insurance when I bought my first home. Sadly we had a horrible hailstorm in the same year. It took Lemonade 2 month to approve the claim in which time I had a tarp over my roof and continued water leaks. That was one issue! Now they trespassed my property without my notice with a drone to do a property inspection. Months later I received an email that my policy will be canceled due to the finds of the inspection. No warning! No letting me know there will be a drone around my home. I could have been nude sunbathing and they could have just taking pictures. No email saying I need to correct the issues or coverage will be canceled. I truly feel violated in my own home.
