Allstate Auto Insurance Reviews

After being with a different insurance company for years, we decided to move our auto and home insurance to AllState as they had very competitive prices. After we switched the trouble began. It took weeks to receive our policy and pink slips for the cars in the mail, and because I was travelling I needed that slip so I had to travel out of my way to the AllState office to pick up the slip. A few months later a questionnaire was sent to us and at that time we decided to add my partner (who has his own car insurnace with another company) as an occassional driver as he sometimes drives my car. We provided the requested information (name and driver's licence number) and sent the form back via mail. Fast forward to now (approx. 90 days later) and it is time for our 6 month renewal. 10 days before the policy was due to expire we still have not received our renewal documents. We called to request them be sent and our representative no longer works for the company, and our policy it seems had just been forgotten about. At this time we requested to know what the cost would be and for our renewal documents to be sent immediately. Our cost increased nearly $300 from the last time we paid! All they stated was "regular cost increase." We also wanted to ensure that my boyfriend had been added on and the lady we spoke to said that would be processed right away. Several days later we received an email from the same lady requesting my boyfriend's insurance company and policy number. This information had never been requested from us before and should not have an effect on him being added as an occassional driver. We have called the office several times and left messages for this lady to call us back and we have heard nothing. It is now 3 days before our policy expires and we have switched to another provider. The customer service (or lack there of) is absolutely ridiculous. We have been given the run around for the entire 6 months we have been with AllState. I work in customer service and if myself or my staff treated customers paying the company money this poory you can be sure that we would no longer be employed with the company. I will be warning my friends, family and anyone I come in contact with to never deal with AllState and if I could have rated them a 0 I certainly would have.

ALLSTATE should not even be allowed to be a useable company anymore. TERRIBLE! They are all clueless, and you call ten times to get one thing done when each person you talk to says "it's all taken care of" just to find out they DID NOTHING! I HATE this company with a deep passion, it is ridiculous how they run. Started with them and my prices kept going up, then they always had some stupid policy rate saver they had me signed up for (which they told me nothing about just told me my price) and then it'd go up three months later and they said "well you had this discount on there and never signed up for the app or online" well the fact that I didn't know I had this discount on there and I had to follow up to keep it - how could I?! And then, "oh, well, it's too late, it's gone, up 30plus dollars a month". Then after a separation, they took 4 months to get my car and his car separated in policies, I got double charged for my car and his, and then they let him call in, change my address and email, and ADD himself to my policy! CRAZY! Then I got into a car accident, two cars hit me, they were at fault and it took claims a week, A WEEK, to get in contact with me and I had a MINOR IN THE CAR! They don't care at all, I called my agent 6 times to tell him I couldn't get ahold of anyone in claims department and he never returned my call EVER. WHAT THE HELL AM I PAYING YOU FOR?! So my accident was 9/2/17 today it is November 22, 2017 and I just got my estimate over their stupid app QUICKPHOTOS and it said not over my deductible, so I have to pay it all! I'M THE ONE WHO GOT HIT, WHEN DOES THE PERSON WHO GOT HIT HAVE TO PAY ANYTHING! AND TWO MONTHS LATER?! Both front and back bumper are popped off and my Driver side door won't open. I have to call through and they give no area to write comments on their app for their estimate, so they have no idea that the bumper clips are broken and the door won't open and my CLAIMS IDIOT DIDN'T EVEN NOTE IT. She takes forever to call back, knows nothing, and can't get anything done. Thanks for never ever calling me back. I can't wait till my car is fixed so I can kick this sorry excuse for a company to the curb. Must have "qualifications: incompetent, lazy, awful attitude" on their applications because that's how they are! Spare it, if it seems cheaper upfront - it won't be, they won't be there for you and your price will go up monthly with NO EXPLANATIONS. Stay clear of this.

I switched to Allstate 1 year ago, the experience was outstanding and excellent customer service. We are 3 drivers and 2 vehicles at home, never have been involved in an accident or tickets of any kind. Now, I just received my renewal contract and I'm flabbergasted to see that Allstate rewards good drivers by increasing my monthly premium by $100. When I called the office (second time in 1 year), I found out that the lady that helped us is no longer there and the new lady started to ask me things like if I was new and requesting a quote. In the end, she said that the reason for the jump in monthly premium is because I need to insure my home as well to get that extra discount!!! The typical scam!!! They offer you good deals and then once there, they start draining your wallet!!! I sent an email to their customer care dept. Let's see what they reply back...
