I was rear-ended by this lady who has this insurance. On that incidence she clearly accepted that it was her fault and offered to take my car the closest shop. I was on the rush so I just took her insurance and contact number. Apparently, a mistake I've learned 'coz after she talked to her insurance she is now on denial. Her insurance guy spoke to me several times insisting that my car back up on the middle of the road even though I was driving automatic (Ridiculous!)and offered the lady to brought her car to the nearest shop (CONSPIRACY!). I ended up paying everything and even my medical, including dental because I ended up grinding teeth on my sleep 'coz of anger. |

They will fight tooth & nail not to pay for anything! My agent didn't do a claim when I first called her about a bad storm. Beware of agents that say it wont even meet your deductable when you have a lot of damage!! I had only 1 claim with Farmers on our house & they gave me the run around for a month. My agent commented that it was settling b4 anyone even looked at it at all! When the claims guy came he said it's settling! Then he commented well if someone else has a dif finding call me & I will reopen the claim. I got an inspector paid him $100. to find out the cause & he said our expossed beam was cracked by high winds & there was no reason to think it was settling at all. Similar Products Used: I have delt with other insurance who were reasonable, Farmers is un-reasonable! |

Unprofessional! Unprofessional! Unprofessional! Farmers has very unprofessional staff working for them. My husband was hit (from the rear) by one of farmers clients. When we contacted Farmers, it took almost 2 WEEKS before I received any information about the condition of my vehicle. Then, it took another week before they FINALLY determined that it was totaled. And it took ANOTHER WEEK to receive a check for the value of my car. What a waste of time! With Geico, the whole process wouldve taken about a week (if that) tops.

MANY. SEE ABOVE Farmers Insurance is the WORST auto insurance company that I have ever experienced. We recently were rear-ended by an uninsured motorist. It took 7 days for the adjustor to get in touch with us. Then we learned that our agent had dropped the uninsured Motorist collision - but not injury - from our policy without telling us.

Great agents, great coverages, pay claims promptly, awesome communication.
Weakness:
Just a little pricey and the rates keep climbing. Guess that's the price of doing business in an inflationary time. I have been a long time customer of Farmers Insurance. We have both our cars, life insurance policies and home owner's as well. Our agent Carl Grifo is awesome. Responsive, caring and compassionate. I am sure that there are many, many other less expensive insurance companies out there. Please remember, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!!!!

i called my farm bureau office in Dickson Tn, this may not hold true for all offices but it most certainly has for mine, as i called multiple times with the same result.

Long term member with Farmers, they had good rates compared to others and never bothered to switch but may soon. My agent has been real nice. Around renewal time I'd get special discounts on my monthly rate, and then the monthly rate would creep back up. They ripped me off on a claim, estimate was 5k for repair and Farmers offered only half. Tough to recommend a company that scams me. |

Good agents, like Mark Reeder. We have been with Farmers Insurance for over three years now and we couldn't be more pleased. I've read the negative reviews on this site, and I'm happy to say that we've never had any problems with our policy because of our agent, Mark Reeder. Mark has returned our calls promptly every single time we called and he is always kind and helpful. He answers our questions and explains things clearly. I really wish there were more insurance agents like him because getting into an accident is stressful enough without having to fight with your own insurance company.

Offered me a discounted rate and then raised my rate a couple months after getting me to switch. Very deceptive. Never had a claim. BEWARE |

It's been a nightmare during the 4 months with Farmers. All calls to their claim department roll to mail box and would probably not be replied. The monthly bill is very confusing. Never buy farmers. |
