Ripped off for many years

I was with allstate for one year, thye had a great quote for me so I went with them. When it came time for renewal and having had no claims or tickets I was expecting a lower price. When I got my renewal it had gone up $500 for the year. I was not impressed. I called the 1800 line and spoke to a rep and he was as confused as I was and said I had even gone up a grid so it should have went down and told me to call my local office. I called the local office and again the girl had no idea why the pricing was the way it was and proceeded to tell me I could get discounts if I wanted tennants insurance etc.. Why would I want to pay more for other services to lower my auto insurance? I called another company and was quote $600 less, thankfully. Needless to say I will not be using, nor recommending allstate to anyone.

I have been with Allstate Insurance since 1986. I have always had good service from them. For the last 20 or so years, I have had 6 cars, a utility trailer, 2 motorcycles, and 2 homes insured with Allstate. Of course, they always made sure we were aware of all the perks and discounts that we were receiving by having so many vehicles and our homeowners combined. There was never a reason to look outside of Allstate for insurance. I just figured with multiple policies, discounts, etc., that Allstate was the company for me. Boy was I wrong. I just looked into switching to Travelers insurance and I saved almost $3000/year just for the vehicles. That is unbelievable. I figured that I could save a few hundred dollars but $3000? No wonder Allstate provided us with such good service - THEY WERE RIPPING US OFF FOR OVER 20 YEARS. It really does not pay to be a loyal consumer these days. I would not recommend Allstate to anybody. Shame on you Allstate. Let the consumer beware.
