Allstate Reviews

We went with AllState after moving to Florida.  The agent offered me a decent rate and her office was convenient to my home.  I was satisfied.  After all, All State is a reputable company, right??

Wrong!  After six months, the agent called to inform me that the automobile rates were going to triple.  We had filed no claims.  She said they were changing the subsidiary of All State that wrote coverage in this area.

Sorry.  That was enough to turn me off completely.  Even though my own brother is an All State Agent, I would never give my business to them again.

I signed up for a term life policy 4 years ago that was supposed to be switched to a "whole life" policy after the first year. The way it was explained to me (because I didn't even want to sign up for the term because it was too expensive - $1200) was that after the first year I could switch to the whole life policy which cost $5000 and get a credit for the $1200 for the first year which is what I did. The insurance broker faxed me over the pages on a rush basis after the first year to switch the policy...

Our Allstate agent is the most helpful and friendly person I've dealt with. I never wait to speak with him and he's always responded to my emails promptly. I was shocked when our payments have reduced the last three years in a row and he's always looking out for additional discounts for my family. I've been loyal customer for over 15 years and don't have any plans on changing.

Bottom-Line: Like I stated from the outset, insurance is a necessary evil, but we have always been in good hands with Allstate.

Insurance, it is a necessary evil.  Car, life, accidental death, home, apartment, condo, and health, the list seems never ending but, again necessary in today's ever increasing complex world of life and finance. 

For auto and home, we are covered by Allstate Insurance Co., a concern we have been with for the last 10 years for Auto and renters or condo. We have had one agent throughout this period and he has served us well.  We don't really hear from him much, but on...

I had Allstate as both my home and auto insurer for the past 4 years. My agent was pretty friendly and professional and had no problems with them until just the past few months. I had a small fender bender (seriously, it cost just about $1000 to fix the other car). Since my deductible was only $500, I decided to report the accident, thinking that we were both at fault. Not only was it determined that it was 100% my fault, but Allstate decided to double my premiums (which increased $700 for 6 months!!) and said that my rate would go up that much for the next 3 years. When I called and asked about...
