    I was in my first auto accident and chose a shop awarded gold standard, has the Porsche contract, but not a State Farm network body shop. It's going on 3 months and I have not received my car. It’s completed but the case is not closed. It appears the body shop and State Farm are in a feud. The body shop has several locations in LA and is not a small operation. I received this email below today, after a claims representative dictated to me the language on the phone. Can you imagine an insurer to dictate this after working with the body shop for the last the eight weeks prior on this exact car? Additionally there are hundreds of SF cars at these facilities. I suggest the attorney general gets involved.

    On the 17 of November my husband was driving south on Andrew Ave and lady was coof Little Street and hit the front end of van 2010 Grand Caravan so I call State Farm and they did not take liability till a week later. Put me in a truck and two days later they call and said they going to total it out but I had a loan on it. They told me they not going to fix it. I ask why. It cost 7500 to fix it but they rather pay more to the car people and left me with nothing to get my kids around or able to take my sick children to doctor. I don't have any money to put down to get another van. How do that that make me whole. I feel cheated and treated unfair and no one will help me.

    We were sent a non-renewal letter in the mail. We were not being renewed because of my husband's driving record: a speeding ticket that was 3 years old, and a wreck that happened last year when a tree fell on our truck. We called our agent several times to file an appeal and never received a callback, so we started looking for other insurance. We found the same policy insurance, for a lesser price and so we wanted to switch all of our accounts.

    I had to break down and call our agent once again to find out the process for switching our homeowners and make a plea, once more, to help save us the hassle of changing insurance companies, since we had been with State Farm for over 15 years. He did not help us in any way. In fact, he wanted to give me "advice" on shopping for new homeowners insurance. His condescending, egotistical attitude was felt through the receiver and I couldn't wait to get off the phone. I couldn't switch our insurance fast enough after that.

Garod in Wayne NJ and was advised that the person didn't run my husband details. So now policy had to be canceled and deposit would be refunded once New insurance is set up. My husband got new insurance OCT 31, was told money would be refunded a week later. It's Dec 2 and still no refund. Each week told it will be sent out this week and then the week pass still no check!

    Why is it so hard to find an agent that will return calls? We are very dissatisfied with our local agent and want to change agents. Was told State Farm discourages against this, so guess we will go elsewhere. We were then told by another agent State Farm would rather keep us than low us because of agent, and that we had to call our agent and have them switch accounts. So my husband called our local agent, and as usual he never has time to talk and never returns calls. Always a fight with them.

    I purchased auto insurance for my vehicle online on October 30th at 4 am . State Farm online priced me for liability insurance for my car 180.00. I thought that was pricey. I had been driving a scooter prior and had one auto accident almost 2 years prior. I assumed that I probably would have high insurance. Well I shopped around when it was time that I could speak to a live agent. Now keep in mind I don't even have a drivers license. So for any policy to be accurate I have to have a licensed driver on my policy. I never put a driver on the policy with State Farm. I honestly don't know how they ever sold me a policy to begin with.

    Anyway I found auto insurance for 70 bucks a month quite a difference in the price. So I called on October 30th at 9 o clock am to cancel my policy. They did cancel that policy on November 3rd they explained that the policy would have to be written which would take their system several days. Then they could cancel my policy. I understood and agreed.

    It is November 29th. I still have not received my check in the mail. I have called several times probably at least 6 times I have spoken several times with supervisors. The first time I was explained that they should have done a flat cancel and refunded my money back to my debit card. They didn't say anything about that until it was too late to do anything like that. Every time I call they tell me my policy is in processing. I spoke with one supervisor. She said that my agent would issue me a check and Kevin ** the State Farm agent in Newton NC would be able to help me. I called his office to learn he can't do that. He says he has talked to the escalation department to expedite my issue.

    This has been nothing but a hassle and I pray no one else will ever have to deal with this. I was told excuse after excuse just so this company could hold my money. I think they don't care. It is holiday season. I live barely week to week. I struggle to make my ends meet. I worked hard to gain my drivers privilege back. I believe if the owner of State Farm would lose his money and have kids and struggle to make ends meet on lots of people income. I don't think he would be so quick to let his employees just hassle his clients. I understand that this company has been around for many years. So that said they most likely have made plenty of money. To try and keep someone's little 180.00 seems ridiculous. If I could hire an attorney to take this company to court I would do that. They need to pay for treating people like this.

    State Farm hires nice people which makes it sting a little to not give them an excellent rating all the way across. I appreciate their attempts to balance customer savings with agent profitability but it's difficult and often ends up leaving a customer overexposed financially to liability if there is an accident. It's better to ask another non financially motivated agent about coverages you actually need versus going with the standard/state minimum coverages. Unfortunately, like many businesses you must have in-depth understanding about questions you need to ask and no one tells you what you don't know... So you'll never know.

    I was in a car accident in late November. I filed my claim and while everyone was very nice over the phone, I didn't feel they were motivated to get my claim processed. It took 2 months for them to pay for the claim. My rental had ran out and I was without a car for over a month because I needed the wrecked vehicle paid off before I could finance the new vehicle. It cost me quite a bit out of pocket and I was very displeased with my service. Then they also ended up denying medical bills that should have been covered.

    State Farm Agent Warning. Unfortunately, I would like to save you some heartache with one particular State Farm agent (Justin ** located by Hebron Public Library). He is not honest and altered our coverage without our consent. He recently reduced our coverage by as much as 75% in some areas and 50% in others when all we asked was to adjust the assigned drivers to covered drivers. This simple action took him over 4 months to accomplish, his customer service is really sub-standard for State Farm. Without a quick comparison, we would not have known that we are underinsured.

    This is not a warning for all State Farm agents. We have been with State Farm for 28 years and was well taken care of. Justin ** joined our neighborhood when our previous agent passed suddenly (Paul ** you will be missed). If you have coverage with this agent please check your new declarations page with your previous one. Justin admitted that the timeline was extensive because of issues with corporate and offered gift cards to acknowledge the frustration we were experiencing in the process but those have yet to arrive (several weeks later) and Justin has only initiated a call to us once throughout this now labeled "ordeal."

    I have been insured by State Farm for 10 years. This site really helped me realize my awful experience is par for the course, rather directed at me. Their goal seems to be to make life unbearable! I have talked to one attorney, who had a similar personal experience. What is their slogan: "Like a good neighbor State Farm is there." Huh, I feel so harmed and violated. Agents cannot, as at about 3.5 years, be involved in the claims process! Instead, I was told when I phoned a person whose name was on the letter, that he was not in. State Farm uses a "team approach" to claims, I was told. They are all independent contractors, which I interpret to mean they have no job security unless they fit the corporate mold, which is how to save a make $ for State Farm.

    It starts with the body shop, a State Farm "preferred " body shop. I hit a deer arriving back from the airport and was hit by a deer. The deer hit me more than I was hit the deer! They want to total out my electric-gas car. I will fight every step of the way. An electric gas car that was developed with federal government assistance and my car is totaled! ?? Insurance has not at all kept up with technology, and they think this is a reason to total out.a car? The air bags did not even go off, a frequent reason I understand for vehicles to not be repaired??? Because they are a threat to the status quo?

    I routinely paid my insurance bill, State Farm is not at all doing their due diligence and fulfilling their duty, at all. I understand in Europe they will very soon make it illegal to drive a gas car, that is occurring very soon. I have filed with some organizations, also. When I look at pics of my car, damage is minimal compared to deer hits I have had over the years. Insurance was fair and reasonable, not any more! I heard one of founders of Tesla speak at a conference, great, the goal is to have interchangeable parts that will work for all electric cars! Seriously! State Farm is awful, and my problem is not yet fixed, but I hope it will be. What are the chances that State Farm, CPAs, etc are laggards, resist change, and protect their fake "empire." It should be malpractice, and grossly illegal.

    There is one agent at local office who wants to avoid what has happened; I think there are risks to learn about claims experiences for them. The national corporate office is very bad, even the comparables were not anywhere close to a comparable. When I learned they were all independent contractors their behavior was explained. They only have loyalty to $$, subzero to customer! Incredible. The story has not reached a conclusion, YET. It is the worst experience I have ever had. Instead, State Farm wants to punish financially people they owe a duty to, so did the CPA I had. In the meantime I think I am on the right side of the problem. Why can't we get along without being laggards?? We owe obligations, let's follow what should be done.

    Pulling out of a multi level parking garage I was hit head on by a young person who admitted was looking at cell phone and dropped it and was looking for it while car was still moving. Person admitted fault and I waited weeks for their insurance to respond to the claim. At the end they stated that their assessment was 50/50 responsibility (which it was not) and that I should take care of my own repairs. When I was noticeably frustrated by this I requested to talk to a claim specialist and was put on hold for 10-15 minutes.

    When I mentioned this was unfair and that the party at fault admitted responsibility, that there were 2 witnesses in my car of what happened vs the other person's word and that this 18 year old was actually driving on an expired learner's permit they said they would cover 50% of my cost (magically just like that after refusing a few minutes back). I have requested all this be provided in writing and I plan to see what my legal recourse is. If we continue allowing such companies to strong-arm us then they will gladly continue to do so.

    Been with them for a lifetime. So I bought a brand new MINI in 2013 and told them I wanted full coverage, the kind that will actually replace my car if something happens. I paid my premiums on time every time, and then one day I made the choice to run over the debris in the road instead of sideswiping the people in the next lane. It took out my tire and damaged my rim, and I paid cash for the tow, the rim, and the tire. State Farm paid $0.00 and they admit it. But the fact that I even called, still sitting in my car, thinking I might possibly need a rental (it was after hours on a Saturday!) before I got a friend to come meet me and help me out, means that State Farm entered an "at fault" incident on my record.

    Fast forward 2 years, the car now has about 58,000 miles on it, and I break down out of state. I call and say I may need a rental to continue my trip and I'm told that since there was not a multi-vehicle collision, I DO NOT QUALIFY FOR A RENTAL. WHAT??? This is complete and total BS. I would recommend you call EVERY OTHER AGENCY before considering these hacks. They lie, they cheat, and yes, twice, they double-dipped on my premium, which cost me hours of my time to rectify, all without a single "we're sorry" or other acknowledgment of fault on their part... yet they want to assign blame and make the customer pay double what other companies charge...

    Just got off the phone with Farmers who quoted me a price for TWO vehicles that was still $500 LESS per 6 months, while Farm Bureau quoted me a price only on the car that I am currently driving at LESS THAN HALF what I am currently paying State Farm for the same vehicle.

    I recently looked for quotes for my car insurance to see if I can get a better deal than what I currently pay with Geico. I got a quote from State Farm and they gave me a higher quote than what I pay with Geico. Then a State Farm agent calls me and tells me how they do so much more than other insurance companies and that they "are always there for me" and serve me which is why they charge a higher premium. I was refusing to sign with them, but the agent kept pursuing me and finally dropped the price lower than what I currently pay with Geico. So that made me happy. Temporarily.

    Two weeks later, I received a letter that they have canceled my policy because I recently opened too many credit cards including retail store cards, and there were too many inquiries in my credit report. First of all, I have excellent money managing skills. I have 15 credit cards, combining a total of $75000 credit limit but I only use very little amount from the credit cards and pay the balance in FULL EVERY MONTH. I do not accrue any interest because I use what I am capable of paying back IN FULL.

    The credit cards I have opened in a within a short period of time were offering excellent incentives, so it was beneficial for me to open them. It pretty much shows that I am a very responsible person. But because of that, State Farm canceled my policy after making me cancel my existing policy with Geico. I went back to Geico and they slapped me with a higher premium than I paid before just because I canceled and came back to them after three weeks.This short interaction has cost me money, time, and stress. They make you believe that they really dont care about money and they are there for you, but in reality, they found a reason to charge me more money and they were unwilling to let that opportunity go.

    On 9/25/2017 I was rear ended while at a red light, driver was on the phone. Driver was found at fault and cited. I called State Farm the next day to make my claim. The driver (at fault) did not make a claim. Had to send in all the information and paperwork. It has now been over 6 wks and the only response I get is the "we need time to do our investigation". I have called them every day to attempt to push this along only to be told by a State Farm Rep that I should just file it on my insurance... this company sucks and are a pack of crooks. So I guess the moral of this story is if you have State Farm and you get into a accident just don't file or answer the phone, that way the claim will just sit and sit and sit.

    I have been a State Farm customer for 5 1/2 years. No claims but they still raise my rates by putting false emergency road service claims and refusing to correct. One claim was even when I was away and my car was in a locked garage. I tried to contact customer and Libby ** who responded has done nothing, and now will not return my calls. She even told my agent NOT to correct the false report where they wrongly classify road service as comprehensive claims. I did a little insurance shopping and found much better rates with other insurance companies. So I am leaving.

    After having State Farm for 17 years and no serious claims my husband is hit from behind. Other driver gives insurance info and gets ticket. I called in claim on Friday Aug 18, 2017. To repair car is over 5,000 so they total car. They offer 3,300 for car. We tell them we have receipts for 1,100 work just put into car a month before. They say very rudely, "Either take our offer or we will close case." But here is the part that I have problem with. They take out our 500 deductible and give us 2,800. When this happens I have bad feeling we are going to be out 500... After waiting over 2 months and calling numerous times about our deductible now State Farm just tells us that the man that hit us has no insurance and has been turned over to collections to get money back. Really, if man can't afford to pay his insurance he can't afford to pay for our car. I feel State Farm makes their insured carry some of their liability.

    Not once has State Farm called or kept us informed about case. Now to add insult to injury out of the blue get a call from my local State Farm office that I need to stop in and sign "some papers". Really? No. I say I can't. Well they are mailing them to me and I have 5 days to sign and return. What? They think I am dumb enough to sign? Is rejecting stacking policies for my 3 vehicles to non-stacking? How can State Farm even think that I am going to sign away triple on my coverage. State Farm doesn't care about their customers. Never sign anything from State Farm. I never thought State Farm would do this to me as a customer. State Farm has been nothing but a problem to us. Cancelled all 3 of my auto policies. State Farm is not a good neighbor. If you have State Farm I would think about changing before you are in accident and get no service and no money for your car like we did.

    They canceled my car’s insurance once my policy expired, I did receive official letter, where I was given a due date and I knew my policy wasn’t renewing. They did this to me not too long ago and I didn’t pay too much attention because I was planning to sell this car anyway. My mom received a letter a week ago from DMV stating that she either needs to prove she has insurance on her car, or surrender the plates. She found out that her insurance policy is closed almost 2 months and she was driving without insurance unbeknownst to her. This is all happening in these dire times when my father died 2 months ago... I don’t know what I'd do if she got arrested for them being so careless.

    When she called Diana **, agent from STATE FARM Massapequa NY, she also said she tried to call several times and couldn’t reach, that’s how they’re justifying their action. My mom asked why she didn’t receive policy nonrenewal letter... I don’t know how she does business until now, she’s been most irresponsible and careless agent I've seen. Now my mom has to pay fines for almost 400$ for not having insurance for all this time. Worst experience ever, Beware Diana ** and STATE FARM.

    My car was hit by somebody with State Farm insurance. After I got estimates, sent pictures to them and the estimate. They told me that they were still reviewing it. Every autobody place said, no matter where you go, the repairs will be around 1500 dollars. So apparently, State Farm estimators have no experience estimating because the damage can be seen from the images. It is just an excuse to slow pay by a corporation.

    My RV received some damage from rain, I have comprehensive insurance through State Farm. Due to the heat of the Arizona sun the shell of the RV was starting to delaminate. Causing 3500.00 worth of damage. I made a claim and the State Farm adjuster denied it because it didn't happen suddenly.

I also had to ask who I should talk to about me missing work, due to being hurt and going to the doctors.

    When they final called about a settlement they stated they will send me papers that I will have to sign and send back, then that’s when they’ll send my check. Mind you I only have 3 days from the 5 days left with the rental. I ask how long will the extension on the rental be and they stated it wouldn’t be a extension, they only give 5 day rentals.

    I went to a dealer and I pay a hold for a car. After that I went to a State Farm office for apply for a loan and also the insurance. So they supposed to make me first the loan to see if I was eligible. No they make me first the insurance, they took out from my account $160 and at the moment for check the loan they don't give me the amount that I was needing. So we cancel the insurance and they told me that they were giving the refund in 5 days and I was waiting for 3 weeks. And all official papers of the insurance were coming to my mail and I was not having the car. They also send me the snapshot (for plug in a car). So I call more than 10 time to see what's going on.

    I am a good driver. At 55, I have never sustained a loss in a vehicle accident where I was at fault. That was until a couple of months ago. I have State Farm Insurance. I had to drive my classic Camaro to an appointment which is rarely used but it was my only choice that day. Sadly that was a mistake. That morning, I was in severe traffic where things would move and then come to a rapid stop. On one of those cycles, I could not stop in time and I had my first accident of my life where I was at fault. 20 years or so back I was home and two of my vehicles were parked on the street when a lady ploughed into the first so hard that it broke it free from park striking my second vehicle. All 3 vehicles involved were insured by State Farm.

    The adjuster had the audacity to try to low ball me for my losses. I realize that is their job but a State Farm ploughed into a State Farm insured vehicle which then broke free and hit yet another State Farm insured vehicle. I think State Farm after many years or premiums needed to take care of their clients. I called my agent who was awesome. She suggested a reasonable approach and we got things worked out.

    Now it is 20 years later and thousands if not tens of thousands of dollars in premiums later and this time it was my fault. My first accident and my classic Camaro, I am so disappointed in myself. I know I caused damage to the other driver and this was my top concern. So no injuries which is a relief. Now we have only property damage to work thru.

    I understand State Farm covered the victim I hit, thank you. But when it came time to address my vehicle, my classic Camaro with full insurance, I asked if the estimator could contact me so I could meet him at the shop to go over this car in detail, "No problem" was the response. But guess what, that didn't happen. So now the estimator treats this like just an old car. I have stated value coverage but the car is not totalled and will get fixed, but again they won't make me whole again. I made many calls to the claims department and sure they collect your premiums, but when it's time for them to pay up, it's one discrepancy after another. And I did almost all the calling as they rarely were returning my calls or listening.

    I strongly believe State Farm is not too different from the many of other Major names that claim to be there when needed but ISN'T. My Agent, same great lady I had before, tried to do what she could, but the company is not in it for its clients, it's only in it for them. I am seriously going to review my coverages with scrutiny. I was going to just fix all the problems and file a Small Claims action against them, but the agent got them to partially cover the damage so it's a mute point but it did show me how unreasonable they are. I suggest you Really compare dollars as all the ads and promotions won't speak as loud as the clients that suffer losses. Why should you pay more for service you don't receive???

    I would have given them one star, but Cathy **, my agent was a listener and did what she could and for that I doubled their rating. My agent was helpful. The claims office Sucks! The days are gone when they made you whole without a fight. With State Farm, you almost always have to expect half ** service involving claims, lousy communication if you call their main office and people that will say one thing but will do another. I cannot recommend them at this time even though I at the time of this writing have 10+ policies with them. This of course will most likely change in the coming year... I suggest you look at all your options closely as I plan to. Stay away from companies that do not fulfill their purpose.

    I had my policy with them a little over a year, I went to add my son to the policy but it was going to be $479 a month just for him! Not including my bill. I went ahead and put a down payment of 439 that day because my son was buying a car and we did not have time to shop around. I went home and found a much cheaper policy through Geico and called to cancel State Farm immediately. This was a Saturday so they were happy to take my money to create a policy but would not cancel on a Saturday and told me I had to call my agent on Monday.

    I called them Monday and they "say" they canceled everything. I get a refund for my policy in a week and call to inquire about my son's. They say it was never canceled that it should only be another week. I am now on a month plus waiting. I have called numerous times and ask to escalate the situation and they tell me there is nothing to do. They gave me a long BS explanation each time and nothing gets done. Meanwhile, I am out 439 of my downpayment. I will never do business with them ever again.

He called for a tow shortly after 3:30 PM, and he's still waiting for a tow after 5:30 PM (it's now 5:42 PM to be exact). We have ALL our insurances (five vehicles, one trailer, homeowners, etc.) with State Farm, we pay a hefty sum for it all, and ultimately, when it came down to needing a simple tow, they failed miserably via their contracted tow companies. Time to put our hard earned money into a different insurance company plus AAA. Terrible experience! And by the way, no, we don't live out in a rural part of California. We are within a five-minute drive of two smaller cities, and within a 22 minute drive of a large city. No excuse!

    On 9/4, I submitted a claim regarding my vehicle. I was told by my agent that for a vehicle to be totaled, there would have to be 75% of the total value in damages. Confident that the damages were nowhere near that cost, I proceeded. My vehicle blue booked at about 28,000$, and there was NO WAY that damages were 75% of that, as I priced out a brand new engine at about $8000, installed. All I wanted was repairs, from a company that is paid to repair damaged vehicles. They also said that if it were deemed a total loss that I could buy the vehicle back from them. Both of these were flat out lies. After some delay, because they immediately took it to the "total loss lot" when I specifically said it needed looked at by a mechanic, I got a call a week or so later stating that the vehicle was totaled. I asked them to show me how repairs would cost 75% of $28,000, and they said it only had to be 30% of the total value.

    I was very disappointed at this assessment and DID NOT want to total my vehicle. I then said I would like to buy it back, and they said I COULDN'T, contrary to what they had previous told me. They had backed me into a corner, as 1000$ in diagnosis fees had accrued at the dealer. At this point, I had little choice but to accept their assessment and make the best of a bad situation. I then turned in a list of aftermarket parts, as I was told to do, and they would compensate me for the extras I had installed on my vehicle. I soon received a voicemail stating that all of the listed parts were already figured into the total payout, so I asked them to show me the original assessment which included these parts.

    Hours later, I received an updated assessment, along with a statement saying they owed me another 1300$. Had I not asked for proof, they would have kept that money. I feel as though I was intentionally misled, then pressured to accept a total loss. Then, 2 weeks later, I hear that my vehicle was for sale on a lot in a neighboring town. I called them and asked why they could sell it, but I couldn't buy it. They said it was not for sale. After establishing a pattern of dishonesty, I do not believe them and feel as though they are acting unscrupulously. I will be finding a new insurance company very soon.

Even I'm not with my Iowa agent anymore, they still tell me sign auto payment plan so I did, so I thought I would be charged automatically but I wasn't because the agent didn't handle it well. Then I decide to transfer from one agent to the other since the latter one is closer.

    I have been a State Farm customer for auto insurance for 16 years. In 2016 I reported a fender bender where I was not ticketed and only called the claim in because of damage to my car. There was no damage to the other vehicle and State Farm did go up on my monthly payment due to the accident. I got married Sept of 2017 and at that time my husband wanted to add me to his car insurance. I then canceled with State Farm on Oct. 9 of 2017.

    Well due to that 2016 accident the original price that was quoted to me by my husband's insurance company changed. I then decided to just reinstate my policy with State Farm. Little did I know when I called to reinstate on October 20 of 2017 that they noted my account as do not reinstate. The 24 hour customer assistance did not know why and advised me to call my agent Monday morning. I thought, "No problem. I have a long history with my agent and my parents even longer."

    So Monday morning I call and I am told that State Farm had already decided not to renew my policy in January due to many claims. I then asked what claims, I only had the one in 2016. She goes on to explain I had 2 tows (I had an older car 2006 before purchasing my new 2015 car), windshield replacement (driving a small stone or debris hit my front window) and then the 2016 accident where State Farm had to pay $1900.

    I was shocked because I pay for roadside assistance and had not needed a tow in over 2 years the length I had my new car. Unfortunate circumstances with the small stone hitting and cracking my windshield but again, I thought Florida had laws for replacing front windshields. And my only accident that was actually my fault is the reason we pay insurance to be covered because no one is perfect.

    I am extremely disappointed in State Farm and realized there is no loyalty to customers having held my car insurance policy with them for over a decade. At this time I would not recommend State Farm to anyone nor my previous agent. I am disappointed in her as well due to the fact that she knew what was coming down the pipeline and did not advice me so that I could make arrangements for obtaining different car insurance. I will not leave the agents name due to the fact that my family continues to have policies. I am further concerned with what government entities are running or policing what insurance companies do. They seem to be allowed to whatever wherever and that is not acceptable.

    I have been with State Farm for 4 years. Through out these 4 years I have had the displeasure of my bill increasing every single month. Mind you I didn't make any changes to my policy. However, every month the billing department increases your bill. My bill went from 108, 130 (liability) to 147, 156, now 160 and this is only for this year. Last year was worst. My agent has no answers other than tax increases. Which leaves me baffled as to why EVERY single month the tax has to increase. Upon seeking answers from the 24hrs customer service phone number; I spoke to Jake a specialist, who is higher than a customer rep who behaved as if me wanting to know WHY every month my bill increased was annoying to him. So I asked to speak to someone else only to be place on hold for 10 mins.

    Jake return to the phone hot and bother stating no one else was available after telling me he was going to let me speak to someone else, when I ask him his name he lied saying Ryan before hanging up on me. I had to call back and speak to another rep named Lorrie who was very professional. She helped me identify that the rep who was very rude and hung up on me was not Ryan but Jake. My advice to anyone who is looking to buy insurance from State Farm is RUN go somewhere else. Until they can fix their billing issues that is clearly an issue people should find business elsewhere.

    I have been a State Farm customer for almost 20 years. I chose this company not because they were the cheapest, but because I thought they were a reputable company that I could trust. Unfortunately, after having an accident, I realize that is not the case. My accident happened on the freeway at night. All of a sudden I feel something hit the side of my car and feel my tire slowly deflating, so I exit the freeway immediately. When I pull over, my tire is flat, my fender has a dent, my taillight is broken, and a panel is missing from the door. I took my car into a reputable repair shop with great reviews. After a couple days, I receive a call from State Farm, saying that they will pay for the body damages, but they will not pay for a new tire!! How does this make any sense? They tell me something about it not being covered in my policy unless I hit something with my tire.

    I told them I have no idea if I hit something or not and how would they know enough about the situation to determine that I DID NOT hit something when there are marks all over the car as if I DID hit something. When I called the body shop, the owner told me that when the insurance estimator went to the shop to inspect my vehicle, he was the one that stated "HE" would not be paying for the tire. As if it was coming out of his own pocket. After 20 years of bundling our 2 vehicles and homeowners insurance through them, I told the representative from claims that we would be changing insurance companies after being treated this way. Their response? "Ok, call your local agent to cancel." This alone should tell you just how much they care and value their customers. There are way too many other solid insurance companies to choose from that I am sure will be more caring and value my business.

    State Farm states on their website that if a claim is made and both parties have State Farm that each party will be treated like the other party holds a different company policy when making decisions on a claim. NOT TRUE!! They spoke to me as if they were the company representing the other party. I have been with State Farm for 34 years and have never made a claim. I am moving my 4 vehicles, motorhome, and homeowners policy to another company in fear of their lack of ability to properly represent me. They lost at trial in my sister's accident where she was rear-ended at a red light!! How do you lose that!!

    I've been a customer with this company for three years. Never missed a payment. Everything was fine as long as I never needed to use my insurance. As soon I put on claim I was basically canceled for using what I was paying for. When I actually had to deal with the agent their communications skills was terrible. I was constantly avoided, insulted and charged more money on a renters policy that was denied when file claim on. Please do not do business with these people if you're looking to be treated fairly.

    About ten months ago, I called the support line to cancel my policies. They tried to reach out to the local agent, who for some reason was unavailable at the time, but they let me know that they left notes for him to cancel the account. I assumed that had been done. Today I noticed that they had continued to take out $120 a month from my account. As this was a direct withdrawal, I only noticed it when reviewing my bank statements. I called the Support line today to tell them my account was supposed to be closed 10 months ago. They tried to contact my local agent to get this worked out. Again, he was unreachable.

    I have been insured with this company for many years with two cars and rental policies and never filed any claims of any accusing any kind and always considered this company providing great service until on Sep 27 I was smashed on the fender in the shopping center and called police and since it was in private property, they can't write police report so I called State Farm and getting nowhere and I had pictures and the guy who hits me insurance card and taken with police presence but they told me they work on the case but I received no calls, no nothing for 3 weeks.

    Zou called once a week State Farm told me the guys is not responding their phone calls and the next step is sending out certified letter and if still no answer then State Farm may or may not sending someone to the guy who hits me AND SO I ASKED what's going to be happening next and State Farm told me if it comes down to the worst they will deny the claims since the guy who got me is not responding and State Farm told me is Georgia law. I don't think so is their law because unfortunately the guy who hits me have State Farm as well so these State Farm didn't have a ball to tell me to file under my policy and pay the deductible and my insurance rates will increase.

    SO THE BOTTOM LINE IS STATE FARM ONLY TO COVERING THEIR ASS NOT doing anything to compromise with the situation and just expect me to wait and they told me they don't know how long is going to take. STATE FARM IS ** AND AWFUL CUSTOMER CLAIMS DEPARTMENT is a bunch a ** that who works is not willing to help.

Not only did my car insurance go up they overcharged me and had to reimburse me. I called for quote to add another vehicle on my policy and they wanted me to exclude my partner who is in the registration as well as my name. My vehicle was involved in a hit and run accident with minor damage. I tried to file a claim online which was unsuccessful. I was instructed to call customer service to find out my policy had been canceled.

    The rep stated they tried to call me and they sent an email for authorize them to exclude my partner off the policy, meaning that they will not cover my vehicle if my partner drove my vehicle. The second issue I experienced with this is insurance company is claim harassment due to accident that were caused by my former husband. Police reports were filled clearly making it obvious that I was not driving the vehicle and State Farm is still trying hold me accountable for the accidents. This insurance company is one of the worst companies I have had to deal with. Their policy prices are outrageous and ridiculous.

    We were involved in an accident with a State Farm insured driver over a month ago. The driver failed to yield at a left turn on a green light and hit our vehicle. They left the scene of the accident without stopping to give information. They went to the police station hours later to get our insurance information and submitted a claim to our insurance without our knowledge. The city attorney reviewed their recorded statement and agreed to ticket them for failure to yield. State Farm will not review any information they have been sent and keep telling us their insured (who they can't contact) hasn't been proven to be at fault.

    I can't believe the inefficiency of everyone we have spoken to in their claims department. They do not document any conversations so every time we call they say they will not pay our claim because they have no information. After pressing them, they always seem to find the police report but no one can be bothered to read it. I have no idea how they can stay in business with such poor service.

    State Farm is the worst company I have ever dealt with. One of their insured drivers hit my car and drove away. After involving the police and finding all the information of the driver, State Farm very quickly sent someone out to take measurements of my car and the driver's truck. According to them the measurements did not add up and they denied my claim. Upon further investigation on my parts I do see the measurements add up and it is completely their responsibility to take care of the damages to my car. They will no longer do anything to help me and won't even send me any information that could be useful. And are refusing to cooperate with my own insurance company. I highly recommend no one ever use State Farm Insurance because I have never dealt with a less professional company who cares nothing about taking responsibility for their insured drivers.

    This is the worst insurance company I've ever had the displeasure of working with. My rates have gone up from $663.40 to $965.58 in just one year. (The entire time I've been with them.) I was in one minor accident. The accident was in January, they raised my rates in March at my next renewal. This was to be expected. What wasn't expected is that they'd raise my rates AGAIN this September for the same accident. It went from $746 in March to $965 in September even though I've had no more incidents. Not sure how this company's awful policies and even worse customer service is offering any sort of protection to the customer.

When I called State Farm three weeks later, I learn they still have not even filed any paperwork with the other insurance company. I insisted that they send the paperwork, so they did. I waited another three weeks with no word, so I called that other company. It seems they were still waiting for damage photos from State Farm. Six weeks into the process and SF had not yet sent the documents needed. SF claims they never were asked for photos, even though submitting color photos is always a part of the process. So I think State Farm is slow, unresponsive and not thorough. I would have my money already if I had gone directly to the other company. SF claims to have the best customer service.

    So I have taken all my insurance off State Farm. My entire family used to be on it (a total of 5 people) and only 2 remain with State Farm. I got into a few wrecks this year and the last one was with someone who took a left turn right in front of me. The driver of the other car tried to file against me and State Farm completely denied his claim. The other driver was with All State and wanted me to take 30% responsibility because my whole front end wasn't smashed in. This was due in part to oversized, air cooled brakes on all four wheels. (PS the body shop I used and have sent friends to have a couple of things they don't do 1) take AMEX and 2) take claims from a prohibited list of insurance companies – All State was on the list).

    The claim is in subjugation and eventually arbitration (which State Farm invites me to fight against All State) so I had to take a collision claim and that pushed me over the edge with State Farm to cancel my insurance because the claim is mine until proven differently. I had been insured with the same broker for 24 years! And the broker's staff can't do horsepucky other than sell and take off insurance. They can't do with anything else including claims (intercede for their customers), at most you call them and they warm transfer you to a 1-800 number, yet they get a commission for every bit of insurance they sell.

    I took all of my insurance (home, car, umbrella) from them. They said that a sister company would insure for $6K a year on the car. State Farm is expensive already. I got new insurance on the Home and Auto and my sister did research when she moved to a new house and found the same policy for cheaper and moved her car over as well. So GO DIRECT. It is like a pyramid scheme - your broker can't do anything other than sell you insurance and pick up a commission check at the end of the year.

    A driver insured with State Farm backed into my vehicle in a parking lot. The police report stated that this driver backed out IMPROPERLY. He came halfway across the parking lot and hit my car while in PARK position. State Farm is only offering to pay for 10% of damages. Really? Also their driver has a physical disability, Cerebral Palsy. By law, people with this condition must report to insurance company about their disability and must have updated modifications made to their car to ensure they are driving safely and legally. If not driving with proper modifications it can affect response time and reflexes in driving ability. I asked for State Farm to confirm that their driver's car was modified with specific updates for his specific needs. Two different agents told me that this information is not relevant to the situation!! Told me they only insure vehicles and don't investigate driver's health conditions.

    Cerebral Palsy is a physical condition that most certainly would affect how one drives a car! State Farm won't even check into this and confirm whether or not their driver is driving a car legally!!! This is negligence to the highest extreme. If someone has vision problems and is supposed to be driving with corrective lenses and they don't comply, then they are liable and driving illegally. This situation is no different. It is unbelievable that State Farm agents are adamantly holding their view that Cerebral Palsy is not relevant or that it could be a contributing factor in a car wreck if the driver isn't driving a properly modified car. I just wanted them to confirm and rule this out and they refused to do that.

    Several times I was told somebody would call me back the next day and then days would go by and I would have to call them. There are multiple factors that show their driver is at fault even without the disability as part of the incident. They just don't want to pay the claim. And to say that someone with a physical disability not having their car modified is not relevant?? That puts State Farm in a whole different category. Negligent. Foolish. Liable.

When I contacted my agent they informed me that due to two accidents and a windshield crack replacement in the last two years they will be dropping all of our vehicles. Neither of the accidents were my family's fault and drivers that hit us were cited on each. One accident was my daughter's over a year ago when she was rear-ended and sustained injuries. The driver that hit her was cited fully for the accident. The other accident was my vehicle in which I also was hit and actually transported to the hospital via ambulance. The other driver was cited fully for the accident.

    We suffered injuries on both as well as motor vehicle damage. Even though we were not at fault, apparently your insurance company cannot renew your policies. They even non-renewed my son's policy who was not involved in any accident but just happens to live at our residence. So much for customer care and valued customer relationships. After paying close to 40 years in premiums, State Farm decided to toss the whole family out based on us being involved in accidents that were no fault of our own. Terrible customer relations!

But they wouldn't total it either. I got KPIX consumer help involved and State Farm finally totaled the car and offered her $13,000. She accepted. But they will not give her the money because they say she must prove that there is no lien on the car from B of A. I tried several times to retrieve proof from the DMV online, but because the car is so old, the dmv doesn't seem to have information on it. I used the VIN and then the license plate number.

    I am doing this for her because she is 70 years old and is caring for her partner who is 75 and he has heart problems and the beginnings of dementia. And she does not have the time or the energy to take care of the car matter too. So she has been without a car for a year. This means that she walks to the grocery store unless she can talk a friend into driving her. And the other day she bought too many groceries and wrenched her back while lugging them back to her condo. Her insurance policy allows $16 per day for a rental car, but she is unable to rent a car in San Francisco for less than $24 per day.

All of that was their job which they neglected to do. They are a bunch of inefficient and inept group!

    We moved to CF agency because of his claims of "providing great customer service"... All talk and no action. I have had to do all the leg work and all the follow up. They moved my claim to another department and never notified me, then they tell you that they are going to "look into it and call you back" but they never do. The worst, worst of service if lack of we have ever seen. We have been with State Farm for years but our previous agent retired and we had to find another office. It was a case of complete lack of service from the Agent's part and one screw up after another from the Claims department.

    I highly recommend that anyone looking for insurance look elsewhere. We have been a multiple-line customers and we are switching insurance companies.

    I've been with State Farm almost 30 years. They increase your premium every time you renew it. Called them asked for why? Because the high price will help other small insurance companies to survive. You pay the most expensive premium and get the worst service.

    I have been a multi-line customer of State Farm for over 4 years. I actually added an additional auto to my policy this year. In 2016 I was side-swiped by a fellow State Farm policy holder. She lied to the attending officer and said it was my fault despite the physical evidence supporting that it was impossible. I was cited and took it to court. In the meantime, I contacted SF claims to tell them the real story and provide legitimate proof it was the other driver's fault and was only met with an extreme lack of due diligence and disrespect.

    The claims person refused to take the accident off my policy. After going to court and obtaining the transcript of the proceedings and witness testimony I reached out to claims yet again. I was given a different claims person that took the time to examine the facts and photos and listen to the transcripts. She ruled in my favor and said that the other policy holder committed insurance fraud by lying and said that the ruling would be taken off my policy and placed on hers.

    Everything seemed well until I filed what I thought was my only claim on my policy this year for a minor accident involving only my car. I received a letter in the mail from SF saying they were going to cancel my policy because underwriting deemed I had too many claims in a short period of time. They said that the accident from 2016 was still on my policy against me, very different from what I had been told before. I pushed back and said to read all the notes from the Claims department and then they came back to say that they could not remove a claim against someone once it was placed on their policy. Total BS.

    I am a 51-year-old man with a clean driving record, never had a DWI and the last speeding ticket I received was over 11 years ago. I forgot to mention that they wanted to include a time I called claims to report my car had been broken into over 2 years ago but I never filed for any reimbursement. SF said that they would put me into one of their subprime companies, which would increase my rates by 200+%. Never again will I trust them with my insurance needs. Stay away from them.

    They're slow and they made it like you never paid in and were asking for free money. Insurance is a scam that government is supporting. We insure each car, instead we should insure the drivers. Cars don't cause accidents people do! Insurance companies and government demanded safer and better mileage cars and now besides the increased cost of a new car you pay twice just for the insurance. A bumper cost of 1200.00 plus. Nothing will change.

    I had been with State Farm for 11 years, never had a problem until this last year. They are rude when you call to talk about your policy, they hang up on you if you raise your voice in the slightest, they are way over priced. I had full coverage. One accident (not my fault) many years ago, tried to talk to them as I'm not working to try & reduce my coverage, was quoted a price of $95.00 if I went down in coverage to PLPD. I had to do it due to money issues. When I called to give them my new address which I had already done because I had to change tenant insurance because I moved from upstairs to downstairs I asked what the next month of insurance would be & was told $133.00 $6 less than what I was paying for full coverage.

    I would NOT have changed to PLPD for a savings of a whole $6 dollars. When I tried to talk to the person who gave the quote of $95.00 she said I did agree to this (no way in the world am I that stupid, she hung up on me because I raised my voice slightly). I called & cancelled my insurance after taking the whole $133.00. I was given a HUGE refund of $22.00 dollars. Nasty, rude, UNCARING insurance company ever. Care NOTHING about their clients just the money. Would advise everyone to stay far, far away unless you like throwing your money away & having no coverage for a lot of money.

    My vehicle was damaged by a towing company that State Farm contracts with and they required my car to be towed to their 'secure' facility. The towing company damaged my car and the tire which they deny any liability and State Farm will not cover the cost of damages. They require me to submit a new claim and pay another deductible for damage that no one will accept liability for. Their other option was to let me try to fight it out with the towing company on my own. I pay my premiums for my insurance company to represent me if I am a victim of damages but at this point I am a victim of State Farm and they will not cover any damages that were incurred while my vehicle was in their possession.

    Happily with Geico for 14 years. I got a phone call from State Farm Auto. "We will save you $500 every 6 months" he says. So I changed my auto policy over to State Farm. The agent had a great detailed conversation of what the vehicle would be used for. During this conversation I explained I'm going to be a UBER driver. Only reason we got the vehicle (a 2014 SUV) After about 45 mins we hung up and I thought I was good to go.

    I went on to drive Uber for 27 days when I was hit by a speeding kid who said "I'm having a bad day." So I called to get my claim. They started the process. Then I was told I don't have coverage on this accident because my AGENT forgot to put a TNC clause on my account ($58 every 6 months). When I told the claims this wasn't my fault and it's the agent's fault they didn't believe me. Told me I'm stuck with the $2600 in damages to my vehicle.

    How can this be? So now a vehicle I owe $14,000 on needs $2600 in repairs in a accident I didn't cause. I had full coverage insurance and AM NOT COVERED. State Farm Agent lied.

    I’ve been a State Farm customer since 1987 with auto, and have insured my home with them since 1994. I also had an umbrella policy with them. Over the 30 years as a State Farm customer, I have had only two automobile claims for a total of approximately $4,500. As a homeowner, I have never had a claim in 23 years. Unfortunately, I had an at-fault accident two years ago, followed by a speeding ticket in Hawaii about a year later. Hawaii doesn’t have traffic school, and my last ticket prior to that was well over 10 years ago. If the ticket had been in CA, I would have gone to traffic school, but Hawaii wouldn’t allow it. With respect to the accident, I unknowingly grazed a parked car in a parking lot, causing a $1,500 claim to the other owner of the car, with no damage to mine.

    Once I realized what had happened, I admitted fault, and made sure the other driver was made whole. I met with the police within an hour of the incident, there was no alcohol involved, rather it was just an honest mistake. The owner of the other car was vindictive, so I had to go to court and accepted a 0-point violation for not exchanging insurance documents. I could have fought the issue as I had a solid defense, but was assured by my lawyer that a 0-point violation wouldn’t adversely affect me. This was resolved before my ticket in HI.

    State Farm appropriately raised my rates after the accident as well as made an adjustment after my ticket in HI. The two rate increases doubled my premium, but I was assured by my agent that if my driving record remained clean, the rates would eventually decrease. However, with my most recent renewal, State Farm underwriting department reclassified the incident as a major traffic violation and raised my auto rates an additional 300%. I shopped rates, and State Farm was $1,500 to $2,000 more than all other insurance companies for comparable coverage, so instead of $4,000 with State Farm per year, I obtained the same coverage for $2,400 with another very reputable company.

    The reason I’m now so upset, is that I was given misinformation by my agent with respect to my homeowner’s policy as well as my umbrella. I spoke with them in advance to make appropriate financial decisions, and I was assured that I moved my auto, that my homeowner’s wouldn’t be raised until the following renewal. When I called to cancel, I was given a totally different answer by the agent’s staff. I was now told that my homeowners would increase immediately and substantially, and that my umbrella was not renewable. I then called their customer escalation department, to discuss the issue as well as voice my dissatisfaction.

    At first, they appeared to be compassionate and helpful, but then did not follow up as promised. I had to call back to get an answer. The response of the escalation department was that they must have not noticed the violation, but it happened before the ticket in HI which had increased my rates in my last renewal. Clearly it was an alternative decision by a different underwriter with the exact same information. Net, net, State Farm is now planning to raise my homeowner’s policy mid-term even though I was told by my agent that it wouldn’t happen. I will be changing insurance companies for my remaining polices tomorrow, and I will never conduct business with State Farm again. I would caution anyone from doing business with State Farm as I feel they are unethical and provide very poor service. I’m just happy to move my policies to more reputable insurance companies.

    We have been insured with State Farm since 2004, at some point we even had our home insurance with them as well. Last year (2016) I was involved in 2 unfortunate car accidents which I was not at fault. 100% was the other driver's fault and this year they have dropped me because of my 2 personal injury claims. They dropped me as uninsurable and I have exhausted all the options to insure myself and no insurance company will do it. At this point since I live in Florida. Can't drive anymore as if I was a criminal with a criminal background and repeated traffic offenses. I have been put in this predicament by State Farm because they are greedy and they don't care. My driving records are the cleanest you can ever think, I have never been ticketed in my life yet, I have to sit In House arrest because of the way they cancelled my insurance.

    At this point I don't know how am I going to be able to work (I'm a realtor) and take care of my 2 children and produce an income to sustain myself and my household. They have definitely ruined my life in a minute after 13 years of paying my premiums religiously. I have been put in a situation of legal counseling to best deal with this situation.

Never once did they ask me about signing any forms. I noticed a month passed and they never obtained another payment, I therefore contacted them and they told me I wasn't set up but I could call in and get that taken care of.

    I called them the next day (Friday) and no one answered or returned my call. Since they were closed on the weekend I called that Monday, again no one answered or returned my call! So I went ahead and sent all information via email. I get a call Tuesday from another woman in the office telling me that since I did originally do auto pay I have to pay two months to keep my coverage! When I express to her it's their fault and that if they do not fix the error I'm leaving the company the woman simply said, "Ok, well there's nothing I can do". I'm left mouth open thinking, wow!!!

    Horrible experience! I had an accident in January 2017 wherein my car was totaled and I sustained broken ribs and contusions. Rather than being concerned about me and my injuries, State Farm was concerned ONLY with getting me to sign a document to release my car to the tow company. They wanted me to drive over 40 miles to the tow yard to claim my items from my car immediately, and continued to harass me with phone calls and emails regarding this, even though I explained that I was under doctor's care and not released to drive due to my injuries. State Farm insisted that I was the only person who could go claim my items, and demanded that I do so immediately or they would not be responsible. I also was not permitted to retrieve the brand new battery I JUST GOT from my car. If my car is totaled, why would they need my new battery???

    I left several messages for my agent Mike **, because although I thought I had full coverage on my Honda, he never offered me personal medical coverage, which I did not find out until after the accident when I went to the ER and subsequent doctor visits. I had to turn to my private health insurance to help me. My agent NEVER returned my calls and claimed he never received them. It wasn't until I got sick of leaving him messages and turned to another source at State Farm for help that he finally called me back. During the time of my recovery from my injuries (10 weeks before I could drive) my agent never called to see how I was feeling, if I needed any assistance from State Farm, nothing but grief. Due to being out of work all that time and covering medical expenses, I fell behind on my payments and my agent didn't do a thing to explain to the underwriters what was going on, although I kept him very well informed.

    Additionally, due to this accident and two uninsured motorist claims the previous year, my insurance premiums were raised. And due to the three late payments (although they WERE PAID) I got a phone call from my agent on THE DAY THEY DECIDED TO CANCEL MY COVERAGE! After he asked me how I was doing, and asked how I wanted to handle the concerns I had been raising, and I offered him an Olive Branch of peace, He informed me that my coverage had been cancelled at midnight that morning. So now, I'm driving a rental car UNINSURED! He had the nerve to tell me that if I needed help finding another company to let him know. He would be happy to help me.

    I was furious about the whole ball of wax. Worst company EVER! I love my new company, and they love me. When I told them the State Farm horror stories they couldn't believe it, and told me that they agree that SF did not offer me a premier customer service experience. I've received more customer service in two months with my new company than I received in almost three years of State Farm coverage.

As it was going to be our home while our other one sold and our next one was built, we completely fixed it up, roof and deck included.

    I told them it was done and they would come out and update our insurance so our rate would drop. Come to find out they never did, so even though I can prove that the roof was replaced 2 years ago, they want 2% of our homes value for the deductible.

When I arrived to the parking spot, there were no cars either in front of me or to either side. When I returned to the car a short time later... 10 minutes I found a car had pulled all the way up to my parking space, several feet past her marked spot and had hit and broken my license plate frame. I waited for the person to return to her car, shocked there was no note... And yes, it's just a license plate but at that point it was the principle...

    After several minutes, I took a few pics on my flip phone and drove to nearby police dept. They waited for her and asked we exchange info and left as it was July 4th and they had a fire call so did not make a report... Again, it was no big deal but I would have appreciated a note or at minimum an apology. Then I contacted State Farm, her insurance, I asked if it was necessary to call my insurance company, they said most people do not so I asked what the law is regarding this in CA and they said it was not necessary.

    A few days later I got a call from DAVID ** who could see the cars were attached and that she was indeed in my parking spot but he denied the claim saying I couldn't prove she did it and that he was going to report it to my insurance company, I told him I hadn't reported the claim to them and I would appreciate if he didn't do that. He became more hostile and as rude as a person could be and said, "You have the burden of proof" (which I thought I had met with the pictures). It would have been one thing to simply deny the claim but he was rude, instigative and, in my experience a very unprofessional person.

    I see several complaints about State Farm and have to say that every time I have submitted a claim with State Farm I have had a positive experience. This is covering a time period of more than 30 years and around seven or eight claims. My local agent's staff know me by name and are familiar with my coverage when I call. They are responsive, attentive and quick to return calls. I've never had to argue a claim item with State Farm and they have always settled claims quickly. The majority of accidents were the other party's fault so I relied on their subrogation of the claim. State Farm is not the cheapest insurance but they are among the best.

    So I am a State Farm insured. I have an auto loan through them, checking and homeowners' policy. I was recently involved in an accident where another State Farm insured rear ended me doing damage to my vehicle. It has been two weeks and my car is repaired but because the person that hit me never notified the insurance company and hasn't been able to be contacted they will not put the claim on her insurance but are keeping it on my insurance and I will have to pay $500.00 to pick up my car. A police report was filed at the time of the accident and State Farm received a copy of that report on the day of the accident. I should not have to pay anything. I wasn't at fault. My agent, who is typically easy going, was a total ** and told me to just pay the deductible and get reimbursed when they move the claim over to her policy.

    Here's my issue... this is the second time. I am still waiting on the deductible reimbursement from my home policy from two (2) years ago and it's over $1350.00. State Farm said they would put a lien on my neighbor's property to ensure that I received my deductible back and two years have passed and they have not done it, something that I have checked periodically and called them about every time. Don't trust them! They will take your premiums, get your deductible on your policy but then they don't want to pay on claims of their other insured.

    State Farm is the biggest crooks I know! My 16 year was recently in a wreck involved with a person that has ins through State Farm. The other driver ran a red light and caused my car to be totaled. My 16 can't attend football camp this summer and probably no ROTC. MY 16 YEAR old is a female do I mention that. These people not only not want to pay for their driver they have no manners and tell me not my problem and that's why I should have ins. It's ok though cause A. I have a big mouth and work with a large population of my county B. know my legal rights even though the representative tried to act like I'm stupid! You guys are the worst ever!

    State Farm is to me priced good. They are a good company and if policy prices drop they notify a person right away. They are priced lower than other companies I have checked out. I like their service and everybody is friendly and ready to help in any way. The one claim I had was handled quick and did not ask about fault.

    I found State Farm generally very easy to deal with. 24 hour service and very efficient courteous assistant. Great customer service, but expensive if you have to use them. Agent very helpful and will be glad to analyze the policy to see if there is any place that you can save money. Very easy to contact their claims unit. However, still dismayed by the amount of the increase after filing a claim, having had them for 20 years with no claims. They are NOT forgiving in any way with an accident, even a very minor one.

    Had State Farm for almost 50 years. We have never had a problem, everything has always been taken care of. While people look for the cheapest rate, service is what really counts. We have found that State Farm has found us great body shops when needed, pays their bills on time to the provider and takes care of the process without us having to make phone call after phone call. They take ownership of the problem and solve it. One phone call and the process is put in motion. Called for road service 2 weeks ago, State Farm had a truck here in less than 30 minutes, tire fixed, no payment necessary.

    I was rear ended by a driver that is insured with State Farm. I have since sent in my claims for repair and have had to fight every step of the way to get them to cover the repairs. Every time I call, I get passed around and have to repeat all of the information over and over again. The lady I have been in contact with the most is accusatory and yells at me. As if it wasn't bad enough to get rear ended in the first place, this company is adding textbook "insult to injury." It seems like they are intent on beating me down until I pay for everything out of my own pocket. Horrible.

    I was with State Farm Insurance for multiple auto policies (had 4 vehicles plus multiple recreational vehicles), renter's insurance, personal articles, EVERYTHING was insured through them. I was with them for just shy of 10 years when they kicked me to the curb because my husband had a couple accidents and a couple speeding tickets kind of close together (I've never had an accident or ticket on my record in the entirety of having my insurance through them and still don't have any). Not only did they cancel all of my auto policies, they refused to insure my new home (recently purchased instead of renting). My agent Charles Buckner located in SLC, UT entered a few of my policies incorrectly and I had to jump through a bunch of hoops to correct his mistakes. I would have been a State Farm customer for life and referred everyone I know to them, but not anymore. Where's your loyalty to the customers you expect to be loyal to you?

    I had to call and call again to get the correct papers I need. I was hit on the hay and still my auto insurance went up 60.00 dollars, I wasn't at fault. I don't think it's fair or should be legal to charge me more for auto insurance because of my credit, I wish someone would start a class action lawsuit against all insurance companies who do this. And I should be paying for the amount of miles I drive and only for at fault incidents, it's too bad American people can be raped by the auto insurance company.

    The agent never gave us any discount for being a loyal customer for over 35 years. I called him to inquire about any discounts we might get and asking about being a good on time paying client. He finally gave a very small discount, what I would call pocket change. Other auto insurance companies give their clients a discount for being a loyal and never late payment customer after a number of years. I should really check other insurance companies and compare their discounts and also for being a long time good paying client. If you don't ask other companies and compare you will never know.

    Overall, we like State Farm. We've been with them for over 30 years, and before that, my husband worked for them. They are usually responsive, but details seem to get lost in their cyber sphere sometimes (contact info, etc.). Our car was hit by an Uber driver (his fault). Filed claim with State Farm. Adjuster not readily available for Washington, DC, and emails and calls were going to the other spouse and it's aggravating. Tried to get customer service to call the correct phone/spouse who drives that car. It didn't work. Adjusters were leaving/retiring from the company (we were told), and they were spread thin. It was just the timing of everything that made it difficult for us.

    I have had this insurance co for over 10 years and I never had any problems with them at all and the girls in the office are very helpful and friendly. I also have my renters insurance with them. So because I have two policies with them I get a discount. They made it very easy to file a claim when we had a hail storm. They set up a place for them to look at the car to see the damage it made. It was quick and easy process.

    The agents are very indifferent, rude and inconsiderate. Not like they were when I signed up back in the '90s. The newer agents do not think of you as a person but a policyholder. I was not informed when my insurance agent died and I no longer did not have an agent who was looking out for my concerns. I was left hanging and had to find a new agent on my own. And when I did, that agent did not want to give me any discounts based on my circumstances. They do not look for the best deals that would benefit you. They are not consistent. So I left them after being a customer for 20 some years.

    State Farm is a good insurance company. They are always there to help. Even with things that don't have anything to do with car insurance. In my opinion, when I get pulled over, the cop sees my stack of insurance papers, and just simply because State Farm is reputable, it seems like I was let off the hook for not having current inspection. I would recommend State Farm if you don't mind paying a little extra. You will get good customer service and insurance that is not a joke. I only have liability and I pay 96.00 a month. I had one wreck my whole life. To me that is a lot. I T-boned a car with very old people in it. Luckily they were not hurt, but it did do a lot of damage. The claim was paid, I never heard from those people so I think it was a smooth process.

    I have never seen an insurance company that is more considerate and as affordable as State Farm. They make it a habit of retaining their customers by being the very best. Definitely, the first call you should make after an accident is to your State Farm agent. They can help you in so many ways you would never imagine. They make arrangements and phone calls, look up phones numbers and provide recommendations. We get excellent rates too. We have used them since 1994 and if they weren't that good, we would have changed companies.

    On the way to my daughter's house last winter, my car started sliding off the black iced hill, which didn't even look slick, onto its side in a ditch. I called my insurance agent, 50 miles away, and he had a wrecker there within an hour. They helped straighten up the car and I drove away. The insurance company transferred money to the wrecker service and I never even saw a bill. They called to make sure everything was taken care of and checked whether I needed any medical attention. A very happy ending by my State Farm insurance agent.

    My then 18-year-old granddaughter was on our policy in 2015, and caused an accident. I was only 10 minutes from the scene of the accident, and dealt with the other driver, the police, and State Farm. They took my call immediately, got all of the pertinent details, and took care of getting the vehicle towed. The next morning, the adjuster looked over the vehicle; and everything was resolved within 8 more days. Best of all, there was no subsequent hike in our insurance rates. It was painless, simple, quick, and easy. Every step of the way, they took care of the claim. It was almost as if there was never a claim in the first place. Smooth.

    They (State Farm) have always been good to me, polite, respectful and courteous. I took my damaged car to a direct claim auto-body shop for State Farm. Estimates done promptly. They pay for car rental. Two local rental firms are partnered with State Farm so when I pick up my repaired vehicle, I can leave my rental at the body shop. They have good follow-up communication during and after a claim. I would not expect this type of personal treatment from a large corporation.
