Economical Insurance Home Insurance Reviews

Some insurance companies try to help their customers when an unexpected and unavoidable issue strikes. Apparently not Economical. The Economical adjuster was so focused on finding excluded Perils she seemed happy she could claim it was caused by wear and tear. Except it wasn't wear-and-tear of something I own or have any control of. They did nothing to help or even provide advice. Definitively, the worst insurance company I have ever dealt with. Buyer beware you think you have insurance I found out the hard way.

I didn't get my policy from them because they mailed it to the wrong address. It took two months to get a payment rate from them and then when I made the payment, they had already cancelled my policy. Still took half the payment I did make, then supposedly mailed me a check, which I have no assurance I will get because they never corrected the address! Can't be bothered to make a single phone call to their customers, completely reliant on mail and blame the customer when the mail doesn't go through. Don't do business with them.

I might as well not have had insurance. Every dollar to pay our claim has been a fight. If you ever have a claim while insured with Economical Insurance be prepared to do battle to recover your interests.
I would not recommend them to anyone.
They should change the name for economical insurance to CHEAPSKATE'S or TIGHTWAD'S . that is what they are like to deal with.

I had a window that started leaking back in May 2017, they sent a G.C. out he never even got a ladder out of his truck.... Flat out told me he knows nothing about windows and will subcontract this out... Said I had wood rot which I don't, I know a little about building and wood rot.... So I asked them to send out a window guy.... It's now the end of August 2017 and no one has been out to look, I have had no one follow up.... Except for my personal broker... This company is a joke... Unprofessional and just ridiculous to deal with. I have the correct coverage and even my broker had said I have the right coverage for this...

I have had insurance with this company for 8 years. This winter my roof sustained damage after unprecedented snow fall in March. Long story short, I made a claim and have been getting the run around ever since. It's been 2 months and the only thing they did was take the tarps off my roof. The adjuster is conveniently away and/or needing more photos every time I call. What a nightmare.

Dealing with them now for a claim - we had a plumber, house inspector and structural engineer come in and say that the water damage was from a sump pump failure. Without sending any professionals themselves, they rejected the claim saying that it was a weeping tile issue. I mentioned that I was going to escalate the issue to the ombudsman, the manager from economical said "just get a lawyer" - it seems as if they are counting on us not pursuing this claim because of steep lawyer fees. Sump pump failure is covered by our premiums, but they are trying their best to avoid paying. We buy insurance for when the unexpected occurs - well with this company you can count on bad customer service, aggressive assessors, condescending team leads, and just an awful experience.
