How is Allstate auto insurance?

[88keys]

I just got quoted by them and I can get a much better policy with them that's $100 cheaper than what I pay with Erie.


Before I make a decision I wanted to hear of personal experiences dealing allstate.

Overpriced like a motherfucker.

It's only cheaper because you're with Erie, who is overpriced like 1.5 motherfuckers.

Get a quote from Progressive. They've seemed to me to be the all-around most consistently fair, if not always the 'best' or cheapest. Just...not crap and not rape.

:biggrin:

But do they pay or give you a ration of crap?

I really need to price shop.

I'm more interested in the Quality of service at this point than the price considering that I already have that figured out.

If I wanted insurance that was drastically cheaper than what I have, I could get it by answering the junk mail that I constantly get from Geico. But I haven't heard too many good things from Geico's customers which is why I don't insure with them.

On paper Allstate will give me better coverage at a cheaper price. So what I want to know is whether they meet customer expectations when it's time to pay out.

In my experience the rates with geico and progressive are just about the same

No idea if it's legit info or not.

The thread caught my eye because I'm researching home insurance right now and Allstate is on my list. They are a HUUUUGE company.

I used to have them before they got more expensive. Same with Geico. Now with Liberty Mutual. Combined with homeowner's, I was able to save $400/yr. You really do have to shop around every few years to get the best rate.

Have had Allstate for almost 20 years with 0 problems with claims or customer service. If I were just looking at price, I'd go elsewhere, but my local agent has always jumped up every time I've called with a question or needed help.
