The claims are very easy. When I had an accident I just called up my agent and explained everything to them that had happened. They handled everything for me and it was hassle free. I would recommend them to anyone. There are a lot of different coverage options that Liberty Mutual has. They have something for everyone. If you want a little coverage, you can get it. If you want a lot, you can get that as well. It is a good value to have them, they are well worth my premiums that I pay. Liberty Mutual has saved me a lot of money and time. I will never switch from them ever. They are always there to help me. They have excellent customer service and their agents are very understanding.

The only claim I've had is for a windshield and it was effortless to have replaced, Liberty was easy to work with and the replacement was taken care of in a short amount of time. The coverage was personalized to my needs and they offer more discounts to me than even I knew was available for my situation. Also it was easy to bundle my insurance with my home owners insurance which also gave me another discount for doing so. After checking out many different insurance companies and different offerings it was apparent that not only was their coverage as good as anyone else it was in the middle as far as price. Liberty Mutual customer service has done a very good job. Their employees are very knowledgeable and kind and truly want to help you in anyway they can.

Processing claim is easy by accessing the website from your smartphone or computer, calling 1-800 number or visiting one of the 1000's of Liberty Mutual Agents located in your area. Coverage options that fits your budget whether it's auto, rent or motorcycle coverage and if you in a accident Liberty Mutual will pay the total cost of your car's worth. I feel secure with the coverage I need to fit my budget and knowing that if my car is in an accident or stolen Liberty Mutual will refund me for the cost of my auto or lease me an auto while my claim is in a proceeding if it's not my fault. Customer is easy.

Always there when in need. Any kind of coverage I need I can always count on them. This is one of the better ones out there I would say. I am always astounded at the good coverage that my provider meets. I'm thankful for the price and coverage that I get from the company. The value is wonderful because whenever I need something it's always included in the flat rate that I end up paying. I couldn't recommend this company any highest. The customer service is outstanding. They are always friendly, helpful, and know exactly what I need. Very professional service. I couldn't ask for more.

Process was easy and convenient. Didn't like that I had to leave my vehicle just to get an estimate. You can file online or on the phone. Good coverage options. Needed full coverage and I was able to get a high deductible. Rental and towing available if you need it. Also insured a vehicle with state minimum coverage and received multi-car discount. Ease of purchase, ease of claims, ease of obtaining proof of insure, easy to use website, 24/7 claims reporting, mobile app, friendly representatives. Caring, helpful representatives make the process easier than other companies. No issues to report, no problems or concerns to report.

It was very easy to file a claim with them. They took the initial information over the phone and then sent me some forms to fill out which were very self explanatory. They then followed up with me every couple of weeks until it was paid. They even took care of me when I was hit by another vehicle. They started the process for me and contacted the other insurance company to get things rolling. Besides the damage to my car I was hurt so I had to file those bills as well. This went on for three years. My injuries were such that I required ongoing care which they helped me through. They made sure I was compensated for the medical bills and at the end I was given a settlement. They made sure that my bills were being processed properly and on time and gave me advice on what to expect. I was so thankful to have them guiding me through this process.
They had different options as far as the coverage you could choose. You were offered the option of how much you would pay before they took over and your coverage cost was based on how much they would be responsible for. In my case they covered 100% of the damages up to the value of the vehicle. If you totaled your car they only paid you what it was worth not the replacement value.
Definitely worth it to me. You always think the accidents are going to happen to someone else but it just isn't true. I was in what I thought was a minor fender bender. Someone pulled in front of me a few cars back from a stop light and then stopped. She had a trailer hitch protruding out the back like a knight's lance and it went completely through my radiator. We were both given tickets but my insurance paid the bill. I am certainly glad it didn't come out of my pocket. I made one phone call. They took my statement and took over from there. They helped me every step of the way. They contacted me twice after that and it was taken care of and paid in less than a month.

My complaint is they failed to supply my bank with paperwork that I was adequately insured meeting my loan requirements. They caused problems that made the bank threaten to terminate my loan. It took several calls, and much aggravation, to get the issue resolved. This insurance company's coverage is comparable to any other large insurance company. But their competency and customer service fall way behind most others. They have a wide range of insurance levels along with ranges of cost. Liberty Mutual also partners with other companies, such as employers, membership organizations and universities to offer discounts.
This company did not add value to my life. Even with the discount offered through my alma mater, the aggravation, the incompetency of the company caused was not worth the few extra dollars I saved every month. They failed. Customer service is not only about being polite. It is also about following through and correcting problems and they did not do either.

The claims agents are friendly and helpful. They do their best to make sure the process goes as smoothly as possible. They are very responsive and will answer any questions you have. My agent made sure I got the perfect coverage option for me. He took the time to go over my options and was very upfront and honest about what things I would need and what things I could skip. He helped me get the perfect amount of coverage for the right price. It's a great value. It may be a little more expensive than other insurance companies, but you get what you pay for. Plus, with all the association discounts they offer, you can always get a great price for great coverage. Everyone I've talked to there is knowledgeable and willing to help. I have never had a bad customer service experience with Liberty Mutual.

I have never had to file a claim with them but I have been told by others it is very easy and the agents are very concerned about the process. I found the coverage options available were more than enough for me to pick the coverage I needed. They also have many discounts available. I believe the value is very good. I was able to save over 600 dollars a year over the insurance company I went previously for the two vehicles I have. The customer service was excellent. I spoke to a representative on the phone and they couldn't have been more helpful or nicer. They were able to answer all of my questions in a timely manner.

Good, did not have to file a claim in California but did well in New Jersey when we had a case. The rates are reasonable. We got the money in a reasonable time frame. Collision as well as accidents, full coverage. My brother was lent my car now and the Liberty Mutual is still the insurance. Cannot fault them at all, the comparison of the rates were better for Liberty mutual and the customer service was courteous. We had Liberty mutual since New Jersey days.

Have not needed this service just yet but they have great customer service. I have always had all questions answered quickly and without any hassle. I imagine filing a claim would work much the same way. There are several different coverage options ranging from full coverage to liability only to comprehensive. Reps give a very easy to understand overview of all options. There are also several discount options available to help drivers save money. The value of this service is fantastic. It is cheaper than my previous insurance company and provides better coverage and more discount options. Overall I am very happy with it. All of my questions have been answered clearly. I am never on hold for long periods of time and if there is a problem they do everything they can to fix it.

It is very easy and quick and you can use an app. It is also very user-friendly. A claims representative can also help you on the phone and they also are great and very knowledgeable. The coverage is very detailed and can be designed to fit your lifestyle. You also can drop anything from your coverage at any time and not be penalized for it as well. They also do not judge you for accidents instead they give accident forgiveness. The price of the coverage is a little higher than others but I feel like I am covered no matter what and that is priceless. There are also no hidden fees and when you do have an accident they do turn into the "green eyed monster" on you. Customer service is very knowledgeable and first class. There is not one question that I have ever asked and always received the right answer. They experts at product knowledge and that is what makes them experts in their field.

Very easy process. No hassle procedure. Submitted claim, went to repair shop, met with adjustor, claim approved. No muss no fuss. This process was quick and hassle free. The ability to make your own decision of how much coverage and amount of deductible to choose is entirely up to the customer. As long as your state's minimum requirements are met. No one is erratic over paying for something you hope you never have to use but since it is a necessity I am happy with my premiums. I have merger and has problem with customer service. Helpful pleasant people who talk you through the process from getting insurance to filing a claim.

If you're thinking about the Right Track program with Liberty Mutual, don't even waste your time. You'll end up getting yourself into more dangerous driving situations trying to qualify for their highest discount as they monitor your daily driving habits using absolutely absurd criteria. During the 3 months I had the Right Track device in my car, it would have been humanly impossible to drive anymore passive than I did. Slow acceleration... Slow braking. I was conscious of this everyday in my short 10 minute commute to work and on weekends. When I received my results, I was charged with 470 events of rapid acceleration and 350 odd events of hard braking resulting in only a 5% discount.
I don't know how I could've even received a discount at all with a score like this. Then I looked at the detailed events that counted against me. 99 percent of the rapid acceleration events were from accelerating within 10 miles per hour from a dead stop or idle position as the following examples will show. 1.2 mph to 8.7 mph; 0.6 mph to 8.7 mph; 1.9 mph to 9.9 mph. In Las Vegas, the majority of our main streets are 45 mph, and to enter traffic on a main street, you must accelerate in a safe manner in order to match the normal flow of traffic that is traveling that speed. I was basically penalized for accelerating from a dead stop to less than 10 mph about 90% of the time. The hard braking events that I was penalized for, match the absurd ridiculousness of the rapid acceleration. For example, 35.4 mph to 26.1 mph; 38.5 mph to 31.1 mph; 12.4 mph to 3.7 mph; 9.9 mph to 2.5 mph... Get the picture???
They do not want to give you a discount. This is false advertisement to lure new customers and false advertisement to keep customers like myself who intend on cancelling the insurance for being overpriced and greedy. I called to complain about my rates since I'm 47 years old, haven't been in an accident in probably 20 years, no tickets and I'm paying thousands of dollars per year to insure a car that has well over 100,000 miles on it and is nearly 10 years old. The penalizing events that I was charged with are basically going from idle speed to less than 10 miles per hour to merge into traffic. I'm contacting a lawyer, going to be doing reviews, and I'm going research any and all governing entities that would be interested in this unethical scam, false advertising, and invasion of privacy (or misrepresentation of it).
I will be very interested to find out if there will be a class action lawsuit someday over this Right Track program and I'm wondering what the real scam is behind it. But in the end, this program promotes a driving habit that is so potentially more dangerous to drivers and I'll be interested to see if any evidence will be cultivated showing how many people that either cause accidents or are in accidents or road rage incidents as a result of having this device in their cars causing them to drive like complete idiots. I had people honking at me, cursing me out. and racing around me on side streets and on freeways very unsafely during the time Right Track was installed in my car due to my extremely passive driving, and still I was charged with nearly a thousand events of rapid acceleration and hard braking from idle to under 10 miles per hour.
When I first started this program, I asked the customer service person with Right Track, what aspect of my driving was being monitored and she explained that you'd have to really accelerate from like a low speed to 65 miles per hour in just a few seconds (or a very short period of time), and she said you'd have to really basically slam on your brakes to be negatively charged with an event. Then at the conclusion of this period after seeing my results, I spoke with another representative who had the absolute opposite information to give... Basically corroborating the readout of being penalized for absurdly passive changes of speed - like a difference of 10 miles per hour in a second. I'd like to see the physics explanation and ask a scientist or a traffic officer if this is a safe driving habit to promote. I smell a skunk!!!
There's something horribly wrong with what they are doing and I'm beginning my investigation today by contacting the media with the above details... God help us all if even 15% of drivers out there have this in their cars... Be ready for road rage and accidents everywhere due to the absurdly uninformed and dangerous driving habits that Liberty Mutual is promoting with this obscene program.

Since I just switch over from my previous insurance company, I have only been with Liberty Mutual for six month. Covers everything we need and more. We needed family coverage, we added my two children and the rates came out less than what we were paying at our previous company. It added value to my life because now I know my kids are covered and I feel safer knowing that. My kids were not covered under my previous policy. Hopefully I will never have to file a claim. When I initially called, the representative was very helpful. She explained everything very good, in a way I could understand. She didn't try to pressure me into purchasing something I didn't need.

I have not yet not needed to submit a claim; however, the process for doing so was clearly explained to me upon becoming a customer, and information on how to do so is readily available on their website. There are a multitude of coverage options available to meet the needs of each individual (as opposed to only a few 'pre-packaged' options). Liberty Mutual has a proven track-record, and is a trusted leader in the industry. Knowing what a hassle the claims process can be, I take great comfort in knowing they are experts in what they do, and will make any process as painless as possible. Customer service has been excellent... they are very approachable, and go out of their way to explain their process/approach (as opposed to making assumptions as others companies do).

The coverage is what is legally required as well as some extra for the value of my vehicle. The price is not bad, I have no complaints. It gives me security, I am within the law and I also do not have to worry about losing my car nor my livelihood/savings because of a car accident. It bundles with my renter's insurance too so that's pretty cool. I called once to have proof of my renter's insurance mailed to me. I have never had an accident or any reason to file a claim so I can't really attest to everything else from experience but the dude on the phone who faxed me stuff was very helpful and nice.

Liberty Mutual canceled my auto policy without my authorization and mishandled processing of refund and sent it to the wrong party. Liberty Mutual refused to recover the stolen funds from unintended party. The Customer Care Specialists were hostile and insisted that I pay the premiums again in order to correct the mistake they made. The problem was never escalated to management for resolution. The unintended party was allowed to get away with stealing the money without ever being contacted to recover the funds or be informed of the error. Instead, I was given ultimatums and threatened with collection to pay for something that was already paid for and used up because they retroactively canceled dating back more than 1 year.

I am writing this review not as a Liberty Mutual customer but as someone damaged by one of their customers (rear ended by a LM policyholder). This occurred Feb 2016. Liberty Mutual has shown a stunning lack of any responsibility in this matter. Even though my wife was rear ended at a traffic light by one of their insured, Liberty Mutual has steadfastly refused to cooperate on even a minimal level with this matter even though fault is not even remotely in question. We were forced to file a claim on our own State Farm policy to get the damage to our SUV repaired, paying a $500 deductible out of pocket. It took seven months for Liberty Mutual so settle on just the auto repair bill with State Farm and for us to get our deductible back. They have yet to make any offer to settle the full amount of the emergency room bills my wife suffered as a result.
They have caused us tremendous financial hardship all because they don't want to pay for one of their insured rear ending my wife. I've already filed a complaint with the insurance commissioner in my state and I plan to file more complaints with insurance commissioners in Texas where the other driver is from. Not only have they left us in a bind, they are also leaving their insured hanging out to dry since we may have to sue them directly to settle this matter. They should put quotation marks around the word insurance in their title. This company apparently can do little else but collect premium checks and saturate us with expensively produced commercials making fraudulent claims about their reliability.

Ads say they're good and prompt. The coverage was adequate for my needs. I only used them for a period when I lived in San Diego. At the time the cost of the insurance was less than some of the major names. I used them for a short period and would use them again if the value and coverage was comparable. My customer service experience was limited to getting an initial quote and insuring. No issues to report. I'm sure the folks I dealt with have moved on.

Liberty Mutual has claims adjusters who are responsive and fair in their claims practices. My last automobile claim was only a towing bill but it was processed promptly. I had to call back because they did not give me full reimbursement, and I had enough coverage on my policy. The claims adjuster apologized and quickly sent out a check in the mail to reimburse the difference to me. The coverage Liberty Mutual offers is comparable to the coverage provided by other carriers. Most carriers today offer accident forgiveness and replacement coverage, with some restrictions. I thought I was paying a competitive price until my son reached an experience level which should have reduced my rate significantly. Instead, I only saved $12! Customer service is usually very good. I did have one exception recently, where I was "disconnected". This has never happened before and, coincidentally, the rep was disagreeing with me.

I was hit by an older man in October of this year. At the scene of the accident, the driver admitted fault, and even after giving my recorded statement to his insurance company, the adjuster said my story matched the other driver's story, with a few minor differences. Then, a couple days later, the whole story changed to that I came into this person's lane and hit him! Likely because he had a witness and I did not. Liberty Mutual did not defend me in this, and in fact, I had to send them a close-up image of this man's tire on the side of my vehicle before Liberty Mutual said I was not at fault. They were going to deem me at fault because I had no witnesses!!! However, even though I was deemed not at fault, Liberty Mutual told me that they can't make the other driver admit fault and would not go to bat for me!
I had to reach out to them a number of times before I heard back from anyone, and I was given wrong information. Looks like I am going to have to take this person to small claims court to resolve this. What am I even paying Liberty Mutual for??? I have a clean driving record and also have my homeowners and flood insurance through them! I will be canceling all policies with them now, as I do not feel safe with them managing my home policy!!!

Never had the unfortunate time where I had to file a claim, I have had them for a long time, but no claims as of yet.

I get a great rate, and I know myself and family are covered if we ever have to make a claim. This insurance is an awesome value, I have shopped around and with all the discounts I get I have not found another company that can even come close to their rates.

Simple and fast. From the moment that you call them, they actually get the job done right away. I'm really impressed with their services. There's so many coverages for different needs. It depends on the need of the insurance. I truly recommend the full car coverage and the home coverage. It's a bit too much, but for what we have I guess it's okay. Always look into the different options they offer. You can always talk to them about the prices. It's okay. They can be better when they're asking questions. Sometimes it takes forever to reach customer services, they should have more people working on the phones.

Perfect for people who have had accidents and are worried about the claim process, with agents that help the insured understand each and every step of a claim process. If you have full coverage, you can be rest assured that you are being taken care of 100 percent. Very reasonable rates as opposed to other insurance companies.

You can submit and check the status of claims online or via phone. Either way is easy and quick. They are very thorough and will follow up with the police for you if the police are involved.

Also the website makes it easy to see your coverage at a glance. I've used Liberty Mutual more than once after my car was hit multiple times while parked on city streets (hit and runs). Paying the deductible I have was a much better deal than having to pay for all of the damages caused by inconsiderate drivers.

I think we pay a competitive price for the service we have and also include our house insurance with them.
We once had a flood in a previous house and they came in and boxed everything up and put it in the garage for us. They took out the carpet and flooring and some parts of a wall and did so immediately. They even offered for us to stay in a hotel for a week! Easy to contact a person locally to talk to about my claim and even email them about the incident and send pictures over the Internet.

I was with Liberty Mutual over two years for auto insurance and rental insurance coverage. Gradually, started seeing an increase in my auto insurance, called to inquire about it and was informed that across the board all insurance companies were increasing... cool! After two years decided to do a downsize on my bills... cut cable bill off, called around to get cheaper quotes for car insurance, found a cheaper rate and called LM to cancel. Was informed by LM that the whole time I was with them I had been paying a month behind on my auto insurance and rental insurance... The whole time I was with them, never did I get a late notification or anything. Ok, canceled my policy and later received a bill for the month behind bill, keep in mind, I had always paid on time, never was late the whole time I was with LM.
Due to me having a new policy with AAA, I broke the "past due monthly bill" down because I had started the policy with AAA. I paid the balance of $223.00 for auto insurance and $26.00 for rental insurance down to a remaining balance of $50.00 total, $50.00 was all that I owed LM total. Last bill was for 10/23/16 made payments for the month of October, November and had a balance of $50.00.
I called on 11/30/16 to pay the $50.00 off and was informed that it had been sent to collections... are you kidding me??? $50.00? I asked the representative why was it sent to collections. She informed me that it was automatically done. I told the customer representative I could see if I hadn't never made any type of payment but to send $50.00 to collections was ludicrous. Anyway I paid the $50.00 and LM will NEVER have to worry about me coming back to them or me referring anyone to them in the near future. BEWARE OF LIBERTY MUTUAL INSURANCE!

I have never made a claim w/ them. I'm a good driver. I was involved in an auto accident that was the other driver's fault and he was covered by Liberty Mutual. It took Liberty Mutual 3 months to resolve my problem though and I used to have to commute 80 mins both ways to work. Needless to say my kids went hungry for some time. They have all the modern coverage you will need for this and that but you will pay a hefty premium for it that's for sure. I don't really care for them but I have a new car and it needs total coverage. I don't really have much to say about it since my wife just switched us to a cheaper plan that was 40$ cheaper and that's at about 160.00 per month now. I still think it's highway robbery. But if I do get into an accident then I suppose it will be worth it.
After Liberty Mutual took 3 months to process the totaling of my vehicle it seemed to me that they had short changed me on value of my truck, only 3000$ for a GMC w/ under 90000 miles on it.

I think their coverage is quite good with a lot of discounts. They have much lower rates when you use that tracker in your vehicle to show how your driving is, and mileage used. Also quick stops. Basically just what kind of driver you are, and they claim their rates go down instead of going up each year, but that hasn't been my case. It went up but they said it was because all insurance rates went up.
I left my previous insurance company after 42 years because the rates kept going up, and we didn't even use the insurance (Westfield Insurance). We are old and retired, don't travel and have very low mileage on our vehicles yet still pay large rates from any insurance company. I have a 2013 Jeep that only has 900 miles on it and our truck 2008 has 40,000 miles on it and both were bought new. In comparison their rates are good.
I am happy with the value, but then again, I don't know what the going rates are for insurance for the past 2 years or whether I'm paying too much or not because I've never compared rates since I dropped my last insurance, Westfield Insurance because the rates kept going up and up and the coverage got lower. If this happens with Liberty, I'll be searching for new insurance again. I pay a lot to insure 3 vehicles and my home and property in a package.

I switched to LM in September. A deer hit my certified BMW vehicle. LM wants to repair my vehicle with after-market parts. I was informed that in order to use BMW parts I was to have purchased a premium policy which includes OEM parts. This was never explained to me when I called in for initial quote. I repeatedly stated that I wanted the same coverage as my previous insurer and not once was it explained to me that there is a "premium" coverage available. After several days on the phone trying to contact someone that could give me an explanation as to why my vehicle cannot be restored back to its original condition, I was told that they would have to "investigate" the initial phone call and that they would get back to me within 2 days. Well, it's been a week and no return phone call.
My vehicle is sitting in a shop awaiting repairs. I've not received a call back from the person who handles the claims either. I've called many times as well as emailed and still nothing. This has been the WORST experience ever. Another critter hit this same vehicle with my previous insurance and my vehicle was appraised, repaired, and returned to me within 8 days, no hassle. This experience, so far is beyond 8 days and still no response from LM. I'm at a loss right now. I can either come up with out of pocket expenses to repair my vehicle with original parts or repair it their way and lose the value and certification of this type of vehicle. Either way it's a lose/lose situation for me.
DO NOT use this company! You will not get any return calls or real answers to your questions. It's been one lie after another. They did not add rental coverage as well so I am scrambling around to get to and from places. I was also told they would investigate this mishap on their end but still no response. I am charged monthly for EFT payments yet I was initially told that it would be a one time fee. So far, it is not worth the savings and it is the worse mistake ever!

The claims department was easy to work with and helpful in getting the other party's insurance (who was at fault) to cooperate. I felt they worked hard to protect my interests while also recovering the money from the other company. My policy covered the basics and legal requirements for my state, but also gave the flexibility to add additional coverage amounts that were important to me. I don't trust others to carry sufficient insurance since it may cost them more, so having extra coverage for those situations was critical. I would like to have rated this category higher, and for several years could have.
However, despite an excellent driving record (no at-fault accidents or tickets) and a car depreciating in value, my rates continued to climb at a ratio beyond general market increases. I felt this company tried to protect my interests while protecting its own, such as by working to obtain payment from a driver who caused an accident while ensuring my car was repaired in a timely manner.

Having no accent, I called Liberty on Nov 16th for them to find out what was going on. Within 10 minutes of a very firm but polite exchange with a Liberty representative, my neighbors were given their appointment for the estimate, and the process was put in motion. I was furious that this appeared to be racial discrimination because of my friend's obvious accent. Seeing the multiple bad reviews and similar complaints, this company appears to be just negligent and unprofessional. I wouldn't recommend Liberty Mutual to ANYONE!

Gets the job done but sometimes hard to get a hold of an person to get more information about your claim. It's local but has to report to headquarters which takes extra time in the process. Overall good coverage seems to cover all my personal needs and the needs of my kids. Also very easy to add on or switch if the needs will occur. Getting a good value of coverage for what I pay. Also nice family discount and great discounts for paying electronically which really can add up. Local agent who has to contact main office which a lot of times takes extra time to get the claims going because of the middle agent which somehow should be eliminated.

I have not had to file any claims with Liberty Mutual although I am sure that it would be easy, quick and efficiently done. Coverage is very affordable and easy to obtain. There are various options available for anyone and any budget. One would be happy with Liberty Mutual. It has provided me with coverage that I need at a very reasonable price. I would gladly recommend Liberty Mutual to others. I plan to stay with them for as long as possible. I am unable to rate customer service department at this time as I have not needed to talk to them yet. I have faith that I will have a good experience when and if I do.

I have had Liberty Mutual for my auto insurance since I was 21 years old (30 years now). I always believed they would have my best interests at hand. Wow, was I wrong. I have never had a parking ticket, speeding ticket, never been pulled over. Perfect driving record. I had one situation in April 2014 where my Nissan Murano sunroof exploded while driving up Rt. 7 toward Kent, Connecticut. (Yes, exploded, search the internet, it's been happening to all types of vehicles with sunroofs). I remember dealing with Liberty Mutual as to coverage for the glass, which was a $500 deductible, which I paid, but the remaining balance was like pulling teeth to get them to pay Nissan.
They did not want to pay the remaining balance and were trying to negotiate the price down with Nissan, Nissan didn't want to budge and looked to me to pay the additional monies on top of the $500 that I already paid. In the end, Liberty Mutual came up with very little money. This was the first experience that put a bad taste in my mouth. I remember that day telling myself, I am going to let Liberty Mutual know how I felt about this experience and then leave Liberty Mutual for good. Never did. Now, fast forward to today. A friend of mine asked for who I used for auto insurance. I told him I have had Liberty Mutual for 30 years.
My friend came back to me to tell me that the quote he was given by Liberty Mutual was ridiculously high and after researching found that Liberty Mutual had the 2nd highest rates out there. He called me back to tell me he saved $2,000 going with Allstate and I should give them a call. I called Allstate and gave them a copy of my current Liberty Mutual policy so they could see the coverage I wanted on my 2015 Nissan Rogue and a 16 year old Kia Spectra. The Allstate rep said she was shocked at what I was paying all this time that she even showed another Allstate colleague of hers. My policy was $2,700 a year at Liberty Mutual. Allstate quoted me $1,000 a year, with an upped property damage coverage. I just filled out the paperwork today for Allstate. Liberty Mutual goodbye forever!

My wife and I were hit from behind while stopped behind an unloading school bus. The driver was insured by Liberty Mutual. She was ticketed for inattentive driving. We were both sore and shaken up, but did not feel we required medical treatment. The damage was minor, but the jolt from the accident was not minor. My neck was sore and felt better after the 2nd day. The pain returned from time to time, and finally became a daily pain. I sought treatment from a chiropractor, and after numerous treatments, the pain has stopped.
The claim was submitted to Liberty Mutual, but was denied. They were rude, and very unresponsive when I left messages. They said the damage was not enough to warrant a claim, and I waited too long to get medical treatment. I waited because I am 65 years old, and I knew that recovery would take time, but when the pain got worse instead of better, I sought treatment. I have filed a complaint with our state's commissioner of Wisconsin and I am awaiting those results. I am only giving one star because that is the minimum.

I had someone hit and run me and the police hasn't been able to track down the person and the person hasn't appeared in court as ordered, so I contacted Liberty Mutual to see what I need to do in the event I can't get the other party to pay. I got an appraisal of the damage so I knew what I was dealing with going forward. The damage was minimal - $400 - my deductible is $500. It is all out of my pocket, Liberty Mutual is not paying one single cent. However, they go and report to an Auto Claim reporting agency/company that I put in a claim against my insurance. There was no payout by Liberty Mutual, but now there is a mark on my record that I have put in an insurance claim in the last 3 years and it is causing insurance quotes from other companies to be ridiculous.
I am in my sixties and have never had an accident in my life, and this one was a hit and run caused by another party, and I'm being penalized. When I first contacted Liberty Mutual about this hit and run, I asked if this would cause any problems with future insurance increases if I didn't end up putting in for a claim paid out by them, and they ASSURED me that it would not cause any increases. Now they are telling me I have to put in a dispute with the Auto Claim Reporting Agency to get the erroneous claim information - that they reported - removed from my driving history. The other insurance companies I have contacted for quotes tell me it is up to Liberty Mutual to remove this supposed claim from the records of the agencies they reported it to.
The agency they report to is LexusNexus and when you try to call them, you can't get a person, it's all voice prompts. It repeatedly asks for the same information over and over, even after it confirms the information that you have already told the prompts. When you go online to research LexusNexus, there are bad reviews about not being able to get a person to talk to, erroneous information in their records, and how the agency is such a scam. My interaction with Liberty Mutual from the beginning has been incredibly inconsistent with what they tell you and what they actually do. It's always an excuse with them. They apologize for someone giving you wrong information, and then turn around and screw you.

Liberty Mutual informed my Motor Vehicle Administration that I had been operating 3 vehicles without insurance for 5 months (on October 27th, 2016) after I had obtained other insurance. Liberty Mutual kept increasing my price for Auto and Home Owners Insurance. My Prudential Casualty Insurance was sold to Liberty Mutual in 2006. Starting in 2010, Liberty Mutual starting drastically increasing my insurance policies even though I had no auto accidents, no tickets or points on my driver's license, and no homeowner claims. My Liberty Mutual homeowners policy for 2016-2017 jumped $500.00, and my Liberty Mutual auto policy jumped $200.00.
I had previously read the September 2015 Consumer Reports article on The Truth About Car Insurance (3 times), and USAA and State Farm were rated very high. I reached out to my local State Farm agent, and was provided with a quote for a Million Dollar Blanket Policy on my home and automobiles. The cost was $400.00 less than my Liberty Mutual Insurance quote that had one third the coverage of the State Farm quote. I purchased the State Farm insurance for my home and automobiles that was effective June 1, 2016. I then telephoned Liberty Mutual June 4th, 2016 to cancel my policies. I told Liberty Mutual that I had obtained far greater insurance coverage for less money.
I was pulled over by Maryland State Police November 2nd, 2016 and asked for my driver's license and registration. I had done nothing wrong. The officer then told me he was taking the license plates off of my car for an insurance violation, and that I had 24 hours to remove my car from the side of the road. His car had a license plate scanner, and that is why he had stopped me (my tag showed there was an insurance violation with the Motor Vehicle Administration). I displayed my current State Farm insurance card, but he still took my tags. I had to have my car towed home (I was less than 4 miles away), and I telephoned the Motor Vehicle Administration the next morning.
The MVA told me that Liberty Mutual had reported to them that I was operating 3 vehicles with no insurance, and that the MVA had a case against me. I told the representative that I was insured with State Farm, and that I had canceled Liberty Mutual 5 months previously. She put me on hold for 10 minutes, and came back saying that the MVA was dropping the case against me as I was indeed covered with State Farm. I asked the MVA Representative why they did not check my account for insurance when they got the notice? She had no answer. I then asked for a letter stating that the MVA had made a mistake, and I was told they do not mail letters of that sort. I then went to the MVA where I was charged $20.00 for new tags (for their mistake).
In closing, Liberty Mutual had no right to inform the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration that I had been operating 3 vehicle for 5 months without insurance after I had canceled my policies with them.

At some point after about a month of waiting around and nothing happening, they put a new person in charge of my claim without notifying me. Once I finally figured out who I was supposed to be talking to, I couldn't get him on the phone either.
I talked a random claims person into giving me the name and phone number of his manager, and (big surprise) she wouldn't answer the phone either.

So I have been with this sorry POS company Liberty Mutual for a month. In the timeframe I have had the policy I have it to file an auto and renters claim. Let start with the auto: Filed the claim, got a claim number. Got a check for $100 and some change because of my deductible and they said it was cosmetic. Got a call. They are stopping payment on the check. Got another call. Got another check in the mail for the same amount. Did the rental and got my car to the repair shop.
The repair shop told me when they call to verify if I had an auto claim. They didn't have anything on file for me so I had to send the body repair shop my appraisal from Liberty Mutual, then they didn't leave any paperwork with the repair shop and the repair shop didn't even know my car had been dropped off by Liberty Mutual towing company. And then the rental company calls, takes money out of my account because the rental has had no payment on it so I didn't know they cut that off.
Ok, Let's go to my renter's claim: The reason for the claim being filed is due me and my husband going through a separation. From MPD they advised me when he left the first time on 8/19/16 after 24 hrs or more he can consider the home as abandoned. Ok so a few days later I am out with son because he was starting school the next day and I come home. Of course my items are gone. So I called and filed it, got assigned to a gentleman who was working with me. So he told me I will have someone come out to do a full investigation. Ok no problem.
From day one the investigator was something else. She came to the appointment early, I was coming from work to come home to meet her and she told my daughter if I hadn't made in so many minutes she was leaving. WOW. Then we did our meeting she ask her questions, takes pictures, do her recording, etc etc. So then she asked me to supply her all this documentation. Well she wanted a copy of my phone records to see how much contact me and him had. I sent that to her that Friday about a week later from when she came out and that Monday she calls and ask "What are these other numbers listed and why have they been called so many times?"
Then I happen to go online yesterday and see that my claim was completed the day before. Now they say someone is suppose to call you every step of the way. "Do you think I got a call?" Then my daughter says I got a denial: The reason for the denial is that he came into the home and my daughter was there when he came in. Mind you we told her that my daughter works overnight, she woke up and saw he had moved things. So also if you are married don't file a claim because he lived in the home previously, this is not a covered peril and my adult daughter was there. So the claim was denied.
I am so pissed off with their experience and the fact I have a premium coming up that I will make sure I can find another insurance after next month. I wish I could a negative star. I am also calling the corporate office their number is 800-344-0197. I was a victim either way no matter that it was my husband, the report was filed with the police department as burglary and still nothing. That is just wonderful.

I ended up doing her job for her and making the necessary phone calls that Ms. ** should've made months ago (the tow yard had put my title into the Archives dept. because Ms. ** NEVER called them). So the new adjuster put a call through while I was on hold. The adjuster elevated my claim because of the date in which the accident happened. The tow yard and the new adjuster got that problem settled quickly. I have filed a formal complaint with the BBB against Ms. ** for her utter refusal to do her job in any sense. I just spoke with another claims rep who, when I mentioned Ms. **'s name had replied "Oh yes, I had a complaint about her yesterday".

I have had my auto insurance with Liberty Mutual for almost 20 years. One minor accident last month and they will not cover all the damages. I had never had an accident, however my wife was involved with an accident approximately 12 years ago where she was hit by a construction vehicle (back hoe). A few weeks ago she backed into the house with a new car. The car was covered but the damage to the house was not covered. I have been paying premiums for 20 years that supposedly include property damage coverage but Liberty will not honor that part of the claim. And the thing is that the damage to the house was minor, approximately $500.
It seems the house is responsible for being hit by a car. Liberty says that since I own the house it should go under home owner insurance. They know no one in their right mind would make a claim for $500 under home owners insurance. The deductible is that high. I will be leaving Liberty Mutual as soon as possible. I would advise others not to get their coverage from Liberty Mutual as well. They DO NOT COVER what is written on the policy.

Stay away from Liberty Mutual. My husband and I were with Westfield Insurance company for 20+ yrs. I switched us to Liberty Mutual to save some money. Big mistake. We received a letter dated 3 weeks prior, that LM was not renewing our auto insurance effective in 2 weeks! My husband had 2 minor fender benders and I was rear-ended by an uninsured driver in that year. Although I was clearly NOT at fault, that accident was being held against me. So 3 accidents in one year and you are out, even if not your fault.
The woman I spoke with was very matter of fact and mentioned that I was hit by an uninsured driver and "the company had to pay out because that driver did not have insurance or $". I explained to her that we also had our house insurance and our daughter's apt. insurance with Liberty Mutual. And as I received this non-renewal letter just 2 weeks before our insurance would expire, I asked her if she could ask for a reconsideration with a larger premium. She told me she would call me within 48 hrs. to let me know. Never called me back. Once this happens to you, it is harder to get insurance elsewhere as LM informs other companies.
We are now insured by Progressive and it is expensive but I am happy with them. I also let Liberty Mutual know that we were "not renewing" our house insurance and moved that to Progressive. My daughter's apt. insurance is still with them, but as soon as she moves, I will cancel that. This was, by far, the worst experience I have ever had with an insurance company. I can't imagine what they would be like if you had a major accident. Their commercials literally make me sick. Yes, do your research on them as illustrated by all the complaints.

I've been with Liberty Mutual for 3 years, and once this claim is complete I will be running for the hills. I've never had to deal with such incompetence trying to file a claim. I feel like I'm dealing with some mom and pop shop. I still haven't been assigned an adjuster. They use an outsourced company to go out and survey the damage to the car. Won't give me a straight answer on anything. Just terrible service all around. I can't wait for this nightmare of a claim to be over so that I can go with another company. I used to be with Progressive and they were a pleasure to deal with. I switched to Liberty to save a couple of dollars and man do I regret it!

On 2 February 2016, I was hit while driving on the freeway by a driver insured by Liberty Mutual Insurance Co. Their driver was issued a citation by the investigating officer. A witness statement was given by a driver who was behind him and saw him swerve into me. Liberty Mutual refused to pay my claim because their driver was contesting the citation. Liberty Mutual's adjuster, Nicole **, told me in addition to the driver's contesting the citation, they also could not get in contact with the witness.
After I got a copy of the Highway Patrol's accident report and faxed it to them they then refused to accept my phone calls and didn't make any attempt to call the witness. The day before their driver's scheduled court hearing, he entered a guilty plea and paid his fine. Subsequent to that, Liberty Mutual still refused to pay for the damages to my totaled 2012 Avalon Limited. When we called the witness to the accident's phone number listed in the accident report, she answered her phone on the first attempt. She told us that the number was her cell phone number and that she always answers it and if she missed a call she returns any calls missed. She had no record on her cell phone of any missed calls from Liberty Mutual. How does a company like this remain in business with this kind of track record?

I was involved in an accident 05 August 2016 were I was T-Boned by a 17 year old driving a BMW. I was driving a Ford Escape and there were no injuries. I contacted Nichole ** with Liberty Mutual. Her tone, lack of empathy and misrepresenting what had been discussed has been nothing short of adversarial from our initial contact 08/08/2016. Need I point out Liberty Mutual’s client was 100% at fault and they contacted Liberty Mutual Friday 08/05/2016 informing them of the accident? I was able to obtain an estimate that same day. Further I offered you a copy (PDFs) of the estimate and the accident report Monday 08/08/2016. Nichole adamantly refused and insisted on following her script without empathy or consideration to the victim.
Estimated damage from 2 repair facilities was $5600.00. The repair facility they recommended under their rules was $3600.00. Needless to say while I was there 2 customers were complaining about their repairs and the estimator gave my vehicle a cursory review at best. Liberty Mutual insists on using salvaged parts from vehicles flooded in Louisiana and the cabs in Chicago with all of the bullet holes.
My only motive was/is to facilitate a seamless repair of my vehicle, your tone and attitude has put me on the defensive. Nichole ** with Liberty Mutual stated “I have requested numerous times that you let me know which day and time will work for you.” This is what she wrote, “As discussed, please do not just go to the shop without allowing me to schedule the appointment as it can delay the process here internally and we want to get you back to pre-accident condition as quickly as possible.” Key words are “let me” that was Nichole. I chose to wait and wait. I finally just got 3 estimates. I have an email trail from Nichole ** with Liberty Mutual that has one contradiction and misstatement after another. She doesn’t read nor listen well.
My vehicle is now a 2 seater rather than a 5 and we have 2 toddlers to deal with and all of their stuff. It also leaks in the rain. We need a rental SUV until at least mid-October when repairs may be completed, which is 8 weeks. I point the rental out because there is an issue with weekends and Nichole has drag her feet. Also Nichole ** with Liberty Mutual has refused to reimburse me for police accident reports, mileage, etc. And then there is the issue of Diminished Value. Note our vehicle was bought new has low mileage, all service records garaged and not a ding, dent or scratch. Stay tuned. The saga will continue.

A car backed into my scooter. She left a note and I retrieved her information the next day. She damaged both sides of my scooter and impacted the steering, making it unsafe to operate. I contacted her insurer, Liberty Mutual, and they left me a voicemail later that day. I reach LM's voicemail later that day (Monday) detailing a great time to reach me the following day within the time limits the representative outlined in her voicemail. No call. Wednesday, I leave a second voicemail. No return call. Friday, I leave another.
The following Monday I somehow get Kristen on the phone. She is cranky and repeats back my details of the damage poorly. She doesn't understand that a scooter doesn't technically have a "passenger side". She doesn't know of any repair shops that repair scooters and tells me to figure it out myself. I tell her I do not have time to call around. I list off the ones I know and she tells me I should call her back the next day after I've called them.
I call around and every shop owner is appalled they're making me call. It's their job! They empower me to get my personal insurer involved. I start CC'ing him on every email. Kristen starts doing her job now. She's also more irritated. She tells me the ONLY SHOP THAT WILL FIX MY MODEL is too expensive. I tell her to do her job and find a cheaper one then. She decides it's okay at that point. My scooter is unsafe to drive (and the shop is in a suburb where it is difficult to find a route a scooter can drive to) and I give her a time period that would be best for the tow company to come pick it up.
They outsource the tow to a third company. The third company is attentive and kind and wonderful and I think my luck is turning around. The first tow company they find's flatbed is out of order and is a no go. So they find a second (Loyal Towing of Portland, OR). They give me a pick-up time of 11am, which is two hours in the future and workable with my schedule. At 11:30, they haven't appears. I call the tow company directly, telling them that they are late and I need them to show up before 12. They tell me they "don't give a **" and hang up on me.
I call Liberty Mutual in tears. I'm going to miss my doctor's appointment. I'm going to miss an afternoon of work (having already missed the morning). I am frustrated and angry and offended. I don't want this tow company to come to my house, touch my property, for obvious reason. LM tells me it's my job to find a tow company if I don't want the one they sent my way. I retort, no, in fact, it is their job and I want to speak to their supervisor.
I leave a voicemail to the supervisor. The third party company that found the tow calls me back and apologizes. They also apologize for Liberty Mutual, saying they are yes, in fact, this awful to deal with. My wonderful insurer found a tow company he approves of, and the third party company hires this out-of-contract tow company and send them my way. (This third party company was wonderful.)
Liberty Mutual Supervisor calls me the following day and leaves a voicemail telling me I can call her back when I "calm down". She leaves an extension number that doesn't work nor does she pronounce her name clearly enough that I can search for it in the system. When I email Kristen and tell her to have her supervisor call me back, what's-her-face is on fire. She goes full-on Trump and doubles-down on the rudeness. She doesn't owe me an apology. And her supervisor (a Stephanie mentioned in another review on this site) will just refer me back to her when I complain to her.
I leave Stephanie a voicemail. It's been 7 hours and I haven't heard back. I complain to the company's Twitter account and receive my first "apology" from LM directly. But I won't actually hear from a real human being for 1 business day. More than just the victim of a no-fault accident, I am also a potential customer to any insurance company. Spending one molecule of compassion on me is worth more than any ad buy. Liberty Mutual, I'm going to complain until I have a hand-written apology from your CEO David Long.

On call #5 Taylor ** promised that the handler's manager "Andrea **" would return the urgent IM notification within 1 hours time. On call #6 I waited for the manager to pick up the phone and after 10 minutes I hung up and called again.
On call #7 Keiara hung up the phone while transferring to a manager/supervisor. Call #8 I was promised that "Stefanie **" a department manager would return my call, "as soon as she finished her current phone call". The reasons for inactivity are across the board, "your handler is in training", "your handler is not available" "we have not been able to reach the insured (in 2 wks)", "the insured has not filed a claim", "the manager is on the phone". As expected, this insurance company knows that any delay in payment is money in their pocket. Their commodity is service and service is bad. Evasive answers and failure to do as promised are a reflection of a very unprofessional company.

The pictures show how close he was and it was apparent he was not paying attention to an open car door in a parking spot. His car was parked at an angle after he hit me then he moved his car straightening it out. I have pictures of everything.

It is very painful to sit here and read a handful of dissatisfied LM customers. A piece of advice to those seeking a bit of relief: If is applicable to you, hire an attorney or take them to court. All their claim adjusters are run by 20-30-year-olds who could care less about helping out their customers. I have a court date coming up because I am tired of the games they play. Long story short, they low balled me on a car accident claim and told me to pay out of pocket if I wanted to get my car fixed. Funny huh? They now want to settle outside of court because they feel it is best in everyone's interest.
After months of waiting, I'll get a check in the mail, but it is a waiting and patience game with LM. Not sure if everything will be settled before or after the court proceedings, but I am 100% confident that they will pay for the accident claim, something that they should have done from the very beginning. Dear consumers: there are better choices out there if you take the time to read fine print and shop around.

I spent an entire week fighting with them losing time at work and a considerable amount of frustration. If my car were not a limited edition, I probably would have given up and they would have won. They were salvaging my car over a $215 difference. This was based on the wrong value. I ended up filing a complaint with the insurance commission.

I have never dealt with a company that lacks in customer service and manners like this company. I have been a homeowner for more than 20 years and on our most recent purchase Geico selected Liberty Mutual for us as the best quote. We decided to give them a shot - WORST MISTAKE EVER! We prepaid our annual premium and now 9 months into owning our newest home, a storm hits, a gigantic tree falls onto our house and we have over $60,000 in damages.
We were forced to live in a home for 3 days with no power, no running water, no shower or toilets working without the electricity to pump the water from our well. With out-of-town guests, a teenager just released from the doctor after surgery and 3 dogs, you can imagine the stress of no help from the people on the phone whose job it is to help. They only offer the vaguest of answers with no straight YES or NO and lots of room for anyone to interpret what they think they are being told or they answer with a straight out YES and then someone else tells you it isn't true after the fact.
I called repeated every day to ask if they would cover hotel rooms for us - the answer was "not sure" (no qualified person on to answer that). So I ask, "Can we go buy candles, flashlights and camping toilet then and have it covered?" The answer was, "absolutely", so we bought them. Finally on day THREE the rep says, "YES we will cover your hotel stay but you pay out of pocket and then we reimburse you" (of course the power came back on about 2 hours later). Mind you.. THREE DAYS we went without help which has now stretched into 1-month!
Every phone call I made I asked whether something was a covered expense or not. Tree removal for instance so we could uncover all the damage and secure the remaining half from falling on the other part of our house, it needed to be removed. I specifically asked if $500 was all they paid for tree removal and the guy (on a recorded line mind you) tells me, "Nope, they will cover everything no problem. The $500 is the deductible to remove the tree". So three quotes from tree services, I go with the lowest one ($3200) and now I am being told the $500 is the most they will pay to remove any parts of the tree on the ground - WHAT A SCAM!
By the way have I mentioned that an adjuster finally came after a week. He was the only nice part so far of this journey (he doesn't work for Liberty Mutual). He explained the process and what to expect, assured me that Liberty Mutual would have my best interest at heart and even took the time to read over my policy when I had direct questions related to it. Now fast forward. He tells me that he will have his preliminary estimate done within 24 hours and that he had to pass that to the insurance company. It's been ONE WEEK, and although he has finished his end, I have still received RADIO SILENCE from my insurance representative name DANE.
I called and left a message, he never called back. It has now been ONE MONTH since this fiasco started and the only time I talked to Dane was when I called and demanded to speak to his manager because I wasn't getting called back (never got the manager but Dane immediately called back and it wasn't a friendly conversation). The guy is an ASS. Since that time, there has been no follow-up call to see how my family is, or to ask if we need anything, nor has there been any call to tell us the total amount they will cover or what to expect next. So for a month my house has sat damaged and is forced to continue to be until somebody from that damn company starts doing their job.
The guy never answers his phone and doesn't return calls promptly. When I need an answer I have realized I will have to wait impatiently for weeks at a time to get it. This is so ridiculously callous and cruel. I can't even imagine what people have to go through when they lose their entire home if this is the way they treat someone with only $60k+ of damage. In times like this, I need answers and I need them now, hanging on a limb for a month for simple answers is grossly negligent.
So here I sit ONE month later and I am no closer to fixing my house than when it happened. It would be wonderful to have had a person from their company be on my team from the start. To have them proactively call me and help me through the process is not exactly an unrealistic expectation instead I have ONE conversation with the man who is supposed to be MY guiding hand and then nothing but radio silence. I called him Friday. Let's see if another week goes by before I have to call and demand a manager again in order for him to call me. Simply put at this point, I am totally disgusted in their lack of caring and customer support!

On the positive side, they pay on occasion of a loss. And they don't skimp with requiring used parts and so on. On the negative side, they don't give you accident forgiveness and leave out verbiage (I did not even read it in the contract): Truth comes out. You have to:
2. Not even have a rock-chip in your windshield repaired by them. (Ok, maybe one can argue that one, but it shows as a major event in denying renewal.)
3. Your entire family is on the line and the 5 year count. Not the individual motorist. 1 incident in 5 years from anyone in the family and you're out.
Lesson learned: Don't assume. Don't believe that what's not in the contract can't hurt you. Get a legal opinion on what your state allows an insurer can do. (I encourage legal profession to actually start selling those! First, a general one on the state, then a specific one on a contract. Someone please pay me for that great idea!) We live in a fallen world. Another lesson: A specific appointed agent (listed on the policy information) MAY be able to help with a different plan.

I am a Liberty Mutual policyholder. On May 7th, 2016 a large branch from a neighbor's tree fell causing extensive damage to our fence, electric conduit, garage roof and porch roof, as well as, my wife's car. I selected a $1,000.00 deductible but LM imposed without agreement by me a 1% wind deductible equal to the value of my home to be applied against any claim I may make. The branch from the tree was quite large and it would take a great wind to blow it down. However, there was no great wind that night. The National Weather Service said we had winds up to 26mph that day and on the official damage scale they use this was not considered a "damaging wind". The tree is old, hollowed out and has ash borer disease.
Further, it has been trimmed many times by the electric company which has caused the tree to put out branches that are structurally compromised making the branches more susceptible to falling without a wind capable of pulling down a branch of this size. The coup de gras is that a branch from this tree has fallen before causing damage. All of this information was provided to the company in writing by experts and they insisted it was a wind event. They had NO proof that wind was the proximate or remote cause of this branch to fall. Notwithstanding, they arbitrarily applied this deductible costing me approx. $6,000.00. In short, they deprived me of a lot of money and broke their contract without presenting any proof that wind was a substantial factor in causing this damage. This company is most dishonorable. They spend millions on advertising but don't fairly or wholly pay claims.

Liberty Mutual is one of the most unethical companies that I have experienced having business with. The rep who signed me on, wrote my signature on the application before I had made the decision to start the insurance. The previous company sent me a copy of the forged signature. They would not give me a good price on home insurance unless I also placed my car insurance with them. I called my past insurance company and asked why they had canceled my car insurance and they said because they had received a request with my signature. I had never made the change. OK, so then after the first year of house insurance, they increased the premium approx. $300 and my car insurance has increased as well.
Then a truck backed up and hit my car in a parking lot. My car was not even running. Liberty has given me the runaround so horribly about paying the claim, that I simply refuse to deal with them anymore. I have paid for my own medication because their system stinks, you have to pay first and then mail the proof to them and wait weeks for them to pay your money back. I have NEVER dealt with such a horrible car insurance company. RUN, and do not even consider working with this company. There is no honesty in them. With car claims, they do not want to pay! If you want my claim number, just email me and I will supply.

I hit a deer one dark night when driving home on interstate route 80 in NJ. I made a claim and had my car fixed. Shortly after that, I bought a new car. Liberty Mutual sent me to have my brand new car looked at for any damages and equipment. I took my car where they said. About 4 months later, they requested that I take my new car there again. They had that info already so I ignored it. Shortly after that, my policy was up for renewal. I was informed that because I didn't take my car in, that they will not renew my insurance for a full year. I had to immediately shop somewhere else. I would like to warn others. Every time their TV commercials come on, I just want to scream. Don't believe a word they say. If I could review minus five stars. I would.

I don't even know where to start, my wife and I have had LM for a long time after switching from USAA. Our truck was involved in an accident and LM approved the accident and sent the truck to the collision center to get it fixed, we left it there over two WEEKS!!! Just to find out after all it was only sitting at the collision center doing NOTHING with our truck only because LM decided they are not covering the accident and did not care to let us know about that until we called. They had told us that they are not covering it due to unknown reasons. WTF?? Not an answer I like. So now I have a truck sitting with no purpose with a door that does not shut and they insist that we MUST drive the car over 20 miles home without a door! I'm closing all of our accounts with LM and switching back to USAA. No one should ever deal with LM and the incompetent selves.

This is a very useless insurance company. This people do not care about their customers. I bought an auto policy with this insurance company in 2011 and since then I have been paying high monthly premium. When I relocated and decided to switch over to another insurance company they made the transition extremely difficult. This company engages in fraudulent business practices and you will never save a dollar in auto insurance with them.The same thing applies to their other coverages. Do not buy any insurance from this company.

I have been with Liberty Mutual with my auto and home for years!! For the first 3 years I had to call them every year to send the payment to the mortgage company. Then they lowered my insurance to liability because they could not get us to sign some form - they never called - just sent emails. But that is not the reason I am COMPLETELY done with them. The final straw was when we finally needed them. We were rear-ended almost 6 weeks ago. The other driver admitted fault, has the ticket yet LM will not pay us the remaining cost of the deductible because they can connect with the driver by phone. Mind you, the other driver also has LM!!! We haven't called every day but maybe once a week.
Today I called and was told that their process is to research and determine their "findings" and they don't know how long it will take. When I inquired how they are having a hard time finding the driver when they are also customers, the agent responded, "What if they were out of town due to death? We wouldn't want to bother them". I said, "What funeral takes 6 weeks!!?". The agent was rude and talked over me with no empathy and then hung up on me!!! I was floored. I was not yelling or disrespectful.
I called back and of course they were so busy they had to take a message. All I wanted to know was the name of the agent that felt it was too much for her to demonstrate a bit of empathy for a family who was in accident. Then they raised our rates!!! RUN do not walk to the nearest company! I am going to spend a lot of time trying to find the agent and also solve this issue but I will be closing my auto and home accounts. Next stop...BBB! Wondering if there is a class action lawsuit for fraud that can be done since there are so many similarities in the complaints.
