ace-ramsey says "Dependable and enduring company" about Farmers Insurance

ace-ramsey — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 16:58:37 GMT

I have been with Illinois farmer's Insurance since I first got my driver's license at age 16.

I have them for my automobile and home owner's policies. In the past few years I have had to file my first claim against my Home Owner'a policy. They were very responsive, and got a claims adjuster from California out to handle mine and a few other ckclaims in the area due to storms and high winds. They allowed me to choose my own company to do the work, and the check was submitted quickly, with basically no hassles. I have had a few car accidents that I had to submit claims on in the past, but farmer's has always been responsive and fair about the claims, and how they ahndle them. I had the same agent for many, many years, and when I called with a claim or just a question, he knew who I was. I got a Birthday card and Christmas card every year from them. I can find other agancies that may have sklightly cheaper rates, but with farmer's, at least I know how they handle a claim. Quickly...

ZB2GAOXIN says "Farmer's auto insurance is very convenient and cheap" about Farmers Insurance

My friends introduce an agent of Farmers Insurance. She is very helpful and give me a quote for my car very quickly. Besides, she helps me to obtain the good student discount and decrease premium to an acceptable level. So if you have a new car, I strongly recommend you to buy insurance for your car in Farmers.

Unhappy246 says "Worst Company I've ever dealth with. STAY AWAY!!!" about Farmers Insurance

Unhappy246 — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 21:22:02 GMT

Farmers was charging us higher premiums than any other company we compared them against. So we decided to switch to another company. That's when our problems began.

Our insurance agent here in Washington, Angie Bueing, canceled our policy and then continued to bill us each month (we were on electronic auto bill pay, so didn't notice right away). We know our policy was canceled because our home loan companies contacted us requesting proof of our new insurance.

We did exactly what Farmers requested us to do when we canceled, which was not easy. It involved faxing written consent of our cancellation, providing proof of new insurance, etc. Yet even after all of these hoops, they continued to bill us!

It got so bad that the insurance agent stopped taking our calls. We had no choice but to open a fraud case with our bank (who the electronic auto bills were through). And finally we had to contact our lawyers to try to recoup our stolen money.

So PLEASE, do yourself a favor and stay away...

stevencox says "expensive" about Farmers Insurance

stevencox — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 21:10:12 GMT

The service from the company is good, but the price is so much more than other carriers. The problem with Farmers is their bill us updated so slow. If you make change one day, the bill wont be updated until next month. Premium does not stay the same, it keep going up. Other than thta. The service is the only good thing about the comany

alexsammons says "Always consider everything when choosing an insurer" about Farmers Insurance

alexsammons — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 04:22:38 GMT

I have had auto and home insurance with Farmers for three years. You don't need insurance until you need it. And when that time came, I was a bit disappointed. Most companies offer replacement value - Farmers offers depreciation value. When my vehicle was broken into in my driveway and my professional photo gear and notebook have been stolen, Farmers estimated the depreciated value to be less than half of the cost to buy the same equipment used on eBay. Price of my top of the line notebook was estimated to be $250.

On top of that, they were making me pay $8 per month in "draft fees", to cover automated bank drafting on my monthly premium payments. Structure of payments has been very strange and I never took the time to really break it all down - too complicated.

I switched to Nationwide insurance for all vehicles and home. They provided replacement cost, not depreciated cost. In addition to a much lower deductible on comprehensive and collision, I will also gain annual...

CynthiaAnnJones says "Local service with excellent benefits. Quick personal responses." about Farmers Insurance

CynthiaAnnJones — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 22:39:30 GMT

Farmer's Insurance has been extremely helpful to my family. Our local agent is always quick to respond and looking for ways to save us money.

We own a home, and insure it and our vehicle through Farmer's. They have also handled an accident claim, so we have seen their methods and response times personally. Even though the other driver was at fault and uninsured, Famer's still paid the damages, quickly and with an estimate from our own choice of garage.

All in all, our experience with Farmer's has been efficient, thrifty, and pleasant. We plan to stay with them permanently, because you never get shifted from one corporate hotline to another, but are always served politely, and feel that your agent is still working to save you money even when you aren't directly in touch. Also, the statements are timely and they work with us to structure everything in the easiest possible way. We have received several discounts which are faithfully reflected in our policy.

redjen says "A great company or a great front?" about Farmers Insurance

redjen — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 11:47:52 GMT

I worked for this company for seven years and though I must say the majority of the time it was a great company until I started seeing how they treat their customers. I was there when they were turning down Katrina survivors and not helping due to the water damage and although I undestand that you must have flood insurance, the household insurance should have covered the house and items within, but due to the water damage, it was not. There have been other times and disasters that I have witnessed where the company just skimped on paying out and these poor people had been paying this company for years and years and been faithful to the company, regardless of price hikes. Why, after so many years of coverage, does a company do this to someone?...

Anytime that I have a problem with my truck needing some kind of repair on the windshield or road side service; all I had to do was call my agent and he is "Johnny on the spot". I would recommend them to everyone....
