State Farm/over 10 years/very happy with them

am not concerned with the best rate....State Farm may be, it might not be. But I trust them, and they dealt with everything when I had my accident & I feel secure & v happy with their service.

actually, everything is with State Farm...my engagement ring is insured, I have a few other personal articles policies, my parents have a boatload of stuff with them, personal umbrella policies, fine art policies, etc...

and they've always been good with us

I have used the Farm Bureau company for over 25 years. I checked around for comparable rates (comparable to the coverage I have and want) and so far, Georgia Farm Bureau hasn't been beat. I have a 2005 Kia Spectra LX, 4 door automatic. Full coverage for 6 months costs me $280. To add my husband cost me $11. I've not been able to find anyone to match or beat that. :)

I have AIG. I have been with them for 2 years. I think the rates are fair...I really should turn in my marriage license and updated license so that I can get the married rate.

My husband as an ex-teacher gets our auto insurance through Harvard Pilgrim. It's the best rate we can find, and costs us around $350 to insure two cars for six months.

Currently with Unitrin (which was the best rate I could find in early 2005, due to "assigned risk"). Due to some of the "assigned risk" points expiring this year, I'm shopping around--possible candidates are State Farm, Allstate and GMAC (since the vehicle I have IS sold by GM).

IMO, Geico does a lot of false ads--I never found a better rate from Geico than others (and I've actually called for quotes several times).

I swear by Geico- I was in an accident (6 car crash- car totaled and caused by an uninsured driver). Geico was professional, compassionate, quick and more than fair with the settlement. I was paying $320 for liabilty and uninsured drivers insurance annually. Now with the new car- full coverage (collision and liability etc) I pay just over $600.

We are with Esurance.. Its pretty good, although we haven't had to make a claim yet.. I guess we'd find out how good it is then.. but their rates aren't bad (160 for 2 cars and 2 drivers.. ) Easy to get it online too..

I had Geico for a year, best rate I could find at that time, but then they upped my rates drastically this year, due to too many accidents of OTHER drivers in my city! And I even had a good driver discount!!

Sooo, just this month I switched to AIG, I have to go for the cheapest right now – bare minimum at $412 a year! My sister has Amica (total coverage) and she had her truck stolen (& found totally damaged), on Dec 26th and they have been absolutely wonderful to her – great customer service, everything covered, just perfect all around.

State farm. I've used them since 2002. I'm not sure how good the rate is or not, but I've always been happy with the service, especially when you interact with them face to face. I pay about $90/month, maybe a little more but not much.

Unitrin Direct here. I shopped and shopped and have never found anything cheaper or with more comprehensive coverage for our situation. In fact with them, our premiums are approx $1500 cheaper per year than with the next cheapest company.

When we got our teenage son added to our insurance their quote, even without being able to assign risk was still approx $1500 cheaper per year than the next best. The actual monthly payment was slightly cheaper even than the quote they gave us.

Don't think we'll be changing anytime soon - their customer service dept has always been very responsive to any and all questions we have asked.
