Provide Decent Coverage at a fair price - Travelers - Home
27 June 2008Before I get too far into this review, I want to mention that I have never filed a homeowners claim, so I am focusing on everything but claims experiences. Perhaps someone who has filed a claim will read this review and will be inspired to write about their claim filing experience.

25 June 2008I am a recent victim of an auto accident. The driver of a company vehicle insured by Fireman’s Fund, a Traveler’s agency, totaled my car. I live in Montana. The driver and his company were from Wisconsin. Because it was a company vehicle there was no insurance information available. I had to call the company that hit me to find out who their agency was. I then talked with a man from Fireman’s Fund that assured me they would get right on this matter. My claim was then sent to Minnesota and then to Seattle, where I finally received an adjuster and a claim number. Once that took place a private insurance agent from a local company was sent to look at my car. Then I heard from Seattle who offered me a low ball figure for my perfect, (before it was totaled) loaded car. After arguing with no avail with the Seattle adjuster, I called the company that hit my car. A very nice man called his agent in Wisconsin who told me he would do what he could to help me. A couple days later we heard from the adjuster in Seattle who then offered me more money and the check was over-nighted to me, two days after the final offer. My warning is that this company seems to have offices all over the country, but only one office can deal with each part of the claim. This entire process took me four weeks. I did receive a rental car after the first week, but the minute the first offer was extended to me, they wanted the rental car returned. I didn’t even have a check yet to go buy a new car with. They were unfair, but came around a little in the end. You’ve just got to know who to talk to.

25 June 2008A couple years back, I was returning to the Phoenix Airport after a conference in Scottsdale. I was on the prowl for a gas station so I could fill up the tank before returning the car to National. (I was the first person to rent the car I was driving!)

15 June 2008I have been married for over twenty years and for the last 16, we have been insured by Allstate. In that time we have made only two claims ~ once when we were hit by a drunk driver over 14 years ago and then again last month.
To make a long story short, on July 3rd, a car came over two lanes and turned into my lane, coming straight at me! The ONLY thing I had time to do was turn the front part of the car to the right so that he would hit my side and not my daughters. That was it, I saw it coming, turned the wheel and he hit us!

14 June 2008The scene: A beautiful early summer day at the beach. We’ve just gotten back to the cottage and I’m in the shower. A car alarm goes off and my sister says - Hey - I need your keys. Someone just hit your car in the drive way.
I get out of the shower to find that a girl WITHOUT A LICENSE has just backed her mothers Jeep into the rear end of my Lexus. Apparently she was confused between the gas and the brake.

I’ve never found a lower rate in 14 years! - GEICO Direct
1 June 2008I always like to shop around when it comes to insurance rates. It seems that every time you move or are up for renewal, insurance rates go up. I first switched to GEICO back in 1985 simply because they had the lowest rate. Over the next 14 years I moved to 5 different cities and three different states. Usually when I moved it was to a higher insurance state or a larger city (either case, my rates always increased). As a matter of course, I always checked with several other insurance companies and even with a multiple discount for home, auto, life, etc., NO ONE has ever beaten GEICO’s rate.

27 May 2008My husband and I are both active duty Marines. While in DC to run a marathon, our rental vehicle was hit while parked in a hotel valet loading zone(we did not park it–the hotel valet did; we were waiting to enter the vehicle), and neither of us were in the driver’s seat yet. The individual who caused the accident was also insured by USAA.
He admitted guilt to me, gave me his insurance information, and since it was late on a Sunday evening, that was more or less all we could do at the time. I also took down eyewitness information (the hotel valet came forward voluntarily as he’d been right there for the entire event), just in case the other driver backpedaled.

20 May 2008At the moment, I am probably doing something that I shouldn’t do–write an opinion while mad. I begin this review while on hold trying to keep my insurance policy from being cancelled. Overall, I can’t stand Progressive insurance!!! In all fairness, however, I will take a deep breath, count to ten, and begin with the positive aspects of the company.

12 May 2008Let me start by setting the stage - California, which has had a series of inept, corrupt politicians in charge of the Department of Insurance is, in my first amendment-protected opinion, solidly in bed with the insurance companies. Anytime you buy insurance here, it”s a given you will get a raw deal. It”s just a matter of to what degree you will be taken to the cleaners. Any kind of insurance, be it home, health, or earthquake (we even have our own corrupt state-run Earthquake Insurance Commission which overcharges just like an insurance company - go figure).
