Also, one point that I forgot in my first comment. One way to find out about insurance companies, talk to a body shop. These people are on the receiving end of payment for services and can tell you who the companies are that drag their feet regarding payment. One body man told me, " Avoid the big advertizers ". Good advice.
We just switched from Erie to State Farm in WV. With car and house bundled saved $800 on the year. $600 of that was on the car insurance. Age 54 and 49. We also have an 18 year old on our policy. Shocked the crap out of me. Was with Erie for 35 years. 2 claims over the entire time and both were windshields and were 25 years apart.
Have fun with State Farm when your claim gets denied lol 😂 State Farm fucking sucks
Great video. Thanks!
Older driver here with the Hartford for the last 10 years, no accidents, no speeding tickets, and I don't consume alcohol. I went from $88 per month to $109. All that didn't matter to them, I sure gave them an ear full both in English and may native tongue (Spanish.) I'm looking elsewhere.
It is nice that there is no speeding ticket and othér negatives. The true PROBLEM for you and them is inflation.
Three years ago, the COST of left front
fender for my car was $277. Now, it is
$458. Medical bills are, on average, 50%
higher than three years ago.
Uninsured Motorists coverage is more because more people are driving around
while NOT insured . That puts you and your insuror at a higher risk.
My opinion is that 15 - 20% of the owners/
drivers should not be on public roadway
EVER. Good luck finding a way to get them off our roads.
You can probably raise the deductibles
and save some. Also, if your auto policy
is not combined with your homeowners or rental insurance, that may be an option.
(I carry higher than average deductibles
In both)
If you are open to advice, GO (not phone)
to an Independent Insurance agent. Set
an appointment, of course. Take your
Policy or policies with you. Bring along a
writing tablet, pens and written questions
No need to yell at anyone...they have no
control over the rising costs.
Bro, it’s called inflation. It happens, and it happens to all of us.
@@iammainstar Wrong.. There is no excuse for insurance prices to go up, specially if you never had an accident. All they do is sit there and make money year after year on you. You're just too slow to think for yourself.
This is so incredibly helpful! Thank you so much for taking time to do these.
🙏🏼
Thank you for the video- this is helpful...maybe do a follow up on AAA auto insurance?
USAA is no longer what it once was. The rates are astronomical now and everyone is beating them. After 25 years the huge pricing increases over the last 24 months are just too much to take anymore.
💯
They told me it’d be a $3,600 6-mo premium. They can go to hell!
@@KM-rh4zl our mortgage every month basically 😂😂😂
@@KM-rh4zlFor what? Are you educated on picking your own coverage amounts instead of letting them dictate and quote you? You can pick your coverage to lower your premiums. Never let them pick for you.
I found trying to follow you was difficult. Seems you skipped around too much and I would lose track of which company you were talking about was bad. Maybe keep on one company, (good and bad), then move on and not go back and forth.
Agreed
Had to watch it twicw
Sorry 😞, sounds like I might have had too much coffee that day. I hope any future ones are better. Let me know if you get a chance to watch a different one, thx
Nothing changed from last year.
The Hartford raised my policy from $1060 to $1359 a 22% increase is unacceptable. Not a ticket or accident ever. Perfect credit and driving score.😡
The Hartford just raised mine from 1350 to 1875. Why? No tickets or accidents so I called them. The only explanation was that they are catching up with the other insurance companies and raised rates accordingly. WHATTTT?
Hartford just did the the same to me, they gave me the same answer as you, i'm older driver, no tickets, no accidents. BS on them, I looking elsewhere.
All insurance companies have raised their prices and there are 2 main reasons for this. 1 the value of your car and 2 the zip code you live in. Year over year the value of most cars have gone up so check kbb for your specific vehicle. You can also look at your States website for statistics for car theft, hit and runs and vandalism in your zip code.
thanks for the video, I noticed you didn't mention GEICO at all, is that a company that didn't make your top ten for some reason? I was looking at leaving USAA due to the incredible price increases for home and auto. thanks
Great question. Geico wasn’t a top 10 company this year. I bet if I did a top 15, they would show up 😉.
They cut their marketing budget drastically a couple of years ago and all though you don’t see as many commercials, they were very profitable last year. They also started letting independent agents get appointed to sell them so that will make a big impact if that opens up more.
I have a feeling we’ll see them show up more often in a year or two.
Thank you for this video! I have Liberty Mutual and they always raise my rates a little every year. Just received my renewal documents and my premium went up $1K. $5k a year. I had one accident years ago but that was it. I definitely thinks it’s time to look for a new company
It's crazy that in JAPAN who really wants less cars on the road and you have to get two separate insurances with biannual inspections is still almost half as expensive total for similar vehicles. US insurance companies have gone wild.
That’s because they don’t sue the crap out of each other over there.
Insurance companies are ALL THIEVES. And the Laws are made to help them Rob you
I'm from Houston and i have Allstate Auto ( 3 cars) but they're keep going up. Which company should i switch to?
I have a quote form in the description. TX is a state we’re licensed in. My guy John will be able to check if we can find a better option.
I feel like based on the customers preference any company can be great if all the coverage needs are met for what ever that person considers the right price . Insurance is the transfer of risk ,the underwriters determine the rates based off the coverage selections of the customer and how high the risk may be of them having to pay out those over all limits . So the way you find the best company is by knowing what you need when it comes to coverage and what those coverages include at each company to assure your insurance needs are met .
just talked about the big boys, lots of great small companies, i.e .cincinnatti, electric, etc.
Allstate customer for 30 years. Yes VERY EXPENSIVE. But it's just now tipping the scales for us because their increases for auto are not 'sustainable' for us anymore. We will have to call you I think.
My van has a wheelchair lift for my kid. I just got it and I was wondering if the custom parts coverage does cover that since it’s permanent. I didn’t know if it matters that I wasn’t the one that put it on there.
You’ll need to call your agent. A lot of that equipment can be upwards of thousands of dollars and all though some companies will cover it, others require it to be listed as additional equipment
Is there an overview on Homeowers insurance like this?
I just recorded a top 5 best and worst for homeowners! I have to edit them but they will be up in a couple of weeks
I'm an Allstate agent in Texas and State Farm has been kicking our ass for the past 2 years.
It might change soon. State Farm just released their earnings and show a $14.1 billion underwriting loss in 2023. More to come…
State Farm insurance cater's too those with an almost flawless driving record as their typically either black or white with rare exceptions of light or dark shades of GRAY as their unfortunately EXTREMELY manic-depressive, scitofecctive, and have been diagnosed with 😇BIPOLAR DISPOSITION😈 as well in regards too your overall driving record and if you're driving record is very CLEAN 🧼🫧🪥 your good too go but if you're driving record is DIRTY and or 🤢 TAINTED 🤮 then your SCREWED! I personally think Allstate insurance is an overall excellent and premium 😎 insurance company overall due too their customer service and PERK'S but as of now unfortunately all have too settle for Progressive and or GEICO as I can't afford Allstate as of now so I'm stuck with Flo 🥰 or the Gecko🦎 and or Cave man 🥳
Belairdirect insurance.
Worst insurance company ever.
Poor customer service. They offered me 25% of what my vehicle was worth. Then left the driver who was injured in the accident without a vehicle or way to get to physical therapy.
Still waiting almost a week now for supervisor to contact us.
CHEAP RATES MEANS CHEAT SERVICE
You are so wrong about Allstate they are not a good company my roof is no longer made I have letters from GAF stating my roof is no longer made
& they keep saying that they are going to only repair with what my roof is no longer made
Great information. Any advice on switching companies after a car accident? Just found out my rate more than doubled.
What advice do you need? You need to shop, shop, shop around. The internet makes it easy. You can do it from your bed.
Switching after a recent accident will make your search more difficult than you might realize. You are a risk and companies will price that accident into their quotes.
@@JeanPierreWhite So? Does that mean you shouldn't bother shopping? Thats a huge mistake. Accident or no accident.
What about Wawanesa?
Survey companies to ascertain of they use telematics data from your car they buy from Lexis Nexis which the carrier purchases in order to increase your rates for your driving behavior.
What’s your opinion on AAA?
AAA is ok. They’re better than a lot of companies, they just have old rules and systems last time I interacted with them. That’s more headache for the agent which can affect your billing etc… just errors and fixing this and that.
Overall they have very poor ratings over the last 2 years which scares me slightly.
From my experience they lack training for their agents which is scary.
What do you think about Chubb?
I’m going to do a review on them soon. They’re decent enough of a company from what I know of them so far
Anyone know of a good/cheap company for nyc?
I did not their was anything cheap in nyc.
Travelers just relased their 2023 4th results. Apparently profit snd losses are both in the right direction. Sounds like better then a lot of others.
Take the time to read the fine print of entire policy they like to sneak word salad with specific terms of coverage limitations or not covered. 🤑
Which is the best for 16 year old's just starting out driving?
under 25 people getting screwed no matter what, best to bundle with your family plan if you can
USAA is best for teens. My daughter was $800 yr for a Prius
my rate for farm bureau is currently 80$ a month was paying 60 for Geico but they raised it to 110$ so I switched. I just have liability for 2 cars.
I had a bad experience with them when just starting out as a newlywed and home owner.
@@stealthbomber2127 if u don't mind telling me what happen?
@@aerostar9376 I was trying to get additional health insurance for my wife because the place where she worked closed down and her unemployment had ran out. io called them, they sent their agent over and he offered me a policy that costs twenty dollars a month, and all the policy offered was ten dollars a say max benefit. I told the agent, interview over. It was a long time ago, but it stuck with me. They must have done a number to their customers because they no longer had an office in our town much longer after that. I hope they do you much better than us, it may have been an agent issue. Car insurance might be better, I do not know.
Where are the timestamps? And you didnt link to or make a time stamp to skip to what you would do.
Yes, and a list would be helpful!!!
I am 56 years old , living in Oklahoma, can you please recommend a good insurance company Mark?
American Farmers & Ranchers and Farm Bureau are two companies I would look at. Shelter as a backup.
How about AAA insurance company?
They’re ok - they would be close to a Nationwide
I like the idea of calling Geico getting insurance immediately and getting the best price and not trying to sell me anything I don't want they also are one of very few that will ensure a motorhome without first ensuring a car
They are terrible, overpriced and good luck with claims
I have a toyota camry 2016 state Farm charge 700 per six months I think is expensive
Steer clear from Snake Farm!
I hate those crooked s o b's.
Why
I have State Farm in Arkansas and my monthly rate has gone up way too much. That’s why I’m watching this video. Was $144 in 2022 and now is $253. Way too much.
My car insurance just went up $200 a year for a car that is a 2015..I’ve had them for 15 yrs
Could you please tell me which company ?🙏 I’m looking for good price one🥰
I am still w Allstate but now looking for different ins
@@corioberhansli9422 Thank you. I’ll tget All State then. Pls let me know when you find better one !
I believe most if not all companies increase premiums the older the vehicle becomes
@@user-rh4tk5sd6m thankyou for this info
Older driver here. Older vehicle as well. No accidents. No tickets, Nothing in clams for at least 25 years except for a couple of windshields. Tried quotes from most of the companies listed in this video and State Farm came in with the best rate. However, they have raised my premium every six months! Plus, after I used road service a couple of times (in 18 months), they sent me a really snarky letter.... I called their bluff and told them to cancel me if it was that big of a deal, and ....they didn't... To offset the premium increases, I just keep lowering the limits of my coverage. Also, why don't companies do a 12-month equal pay plan? SF is the only one I found that does.
A lot of companies do 12 equal payments or 6 monthly payments for 6 month policies.
We’re in what is called a hard market for insurance and a lot of these companies are doing larger first payments to slow the business coming in. Some have paused the 12 pay plans as well.
It could be the location, your insurance score or some other factor that is offsetting the payment options.
@@ThinkInsurance Actually, I encountered just the reverse with GEICO and Progressive. They would write the policy for a very small amount, and then the remaining five-month payments were higher. As an example, a $700 policy. Equally, it would be $116 and some change. Nope. They do something like $50 down and then $130 for the remainder of the term. Why do they do that? As for a 12-month policy, I haven't seen one of those since the 90s.!
@Support_Ad_Blocker Each company does it different. It’s a way to either make it easy or difficult to purchase the policy. They even switch it to pay in full for some people depending on the risk profile.
@@ThinkInsurance Seems like most of them are making it more difficult. Which is probably why no one on my block except me is insured…. I have to laugh every time Amica or some other company sends me junk mail saying that their average customer saved more than $XXX dollars by switching; when the amount they claim saved is more than my entire policy! Also, State Farm has a really nasty rental car policy. It's an 80/20 deal. Never seen any other company with that. Something you don't really think about *until you have to use it.*
has anyone used amax insurance
I’ve not heart of it. Sounds like a credit card company 😂
I think they’re an independent agency not an insurance company.

That’s not good! There should be a pop up on it. I’m going to be reworking my mesh of a website soon. I’ll double check it. Thx for the heads up!
I’ve had Allstate for 45 years.. I just dropped them! Way over priced.
about to do the same. I've been with them for 25 y.
Respectfully, I’m confused… you are back and forth. Is this video about the best insurance companies and coverage or the worst? Set the agenda.
ok
MARK - help me out
Originally from St Pete Florida but left the US in 2018 and living in Brasil now
Returning to FL late 2024, could be Hollywood FL or Tallahassee FL - need to go to aircraft mechanics school for 8 months
Age 71 married ZERO accidents before
Will be taking an online drivers ed course before returning.
Went online and 2 companies pop us with the best rates ; Progressive $145 and Bristol West $115 for a theoretical 2010 Dodge Caravan with St Pete ZIP
I prefer to go to the Hollywood FL school but suspect the rate would be higher, if only a little I am ok with it. IF it's double for Hollywood I'd rather go to the Tallahasee school
Can you compare both cities zip codes for comparison ? HW 33020 Tall 32303
You’re better off just updating your quotes you did online. They’ll be saved. That will give you an idea of the price difference between the areas.
@@ThinkInsurance OK, while I have done online quotes I won't be there for another 6 months. Even at that these people seem desperate, I keep getting emails every day from them. That is a good sign.
Why are you contradicting yourself about Farmers Insurance?
Progressive jcked me up and State Farm gave me a better deal
And when you need them they will let you down.
@stealthbomber2127 Depends on how you drive and what you own there all the same I just changed because it was cheaper I review mine every six months and have good credit
Remember everybody you are paying g for the people that put in claims for a scratch or areas that have bad weather
@@richardweimer8460 I have good credit and driving record. But I was in a couple accidents which I was not at fault. State farm covered the other drivers and both times they called me to ask what happened, as soon as I identified myself their rep said we are not going to pay for this and that. So I did what I'd hoped I would not need to do, get a lawyer. The lawyer made them pay more than I even expected because it was proven they tried to screw me over.
Commonwealth Casualty is the cheapest car insurance I've ever seen.
What states do they operate in?
@@stealthbomber2127Arizona
Nationwide is black mailing my dad tear our barn or not get renewed
That's not blackmail. They are giving you a choice. Do what's right for you.
Got the same from Allstate - 1 month before renewal - new roof and tear down old shed or take a hike
Farmers left California . They are not top company
*I have had a policy from every major Insurance company. I am 65 years old.. Hands, down..AAA is the best. End of story*
I can barely hear you
I checked the audio, audio is good. 🤷🏽♂️
I heard him very well, maybe some thing on your end?
As a grown man why are you making that thumbnail your thumbnail
Asks the guy that clicked it 😉
🫶🏼
@@ThinkInsurance just to dislike
😞 Well thanks for stopping by at least 😀
@@ThinkInsurance that’s what I told your wife
Dayum! It was Wed 3pm, wasn’t it?!
I got an $80 COLA increase this year Jan 01, 24. Same month, my Liberty Auto Ins went up $70/mth. That leaves $10/ mth to cover inflation at the gas pump and grocery store. Oh, but not really because garbage pick went from $60 qtr to $80 qtr and Termite protection from $81 qtr to $106 qtr. So that's another $12 leving me $2.00 short just to coveer those increeses, not counting the 25-30% increase on groceries and gas.
Please, everyone, bring TRUMP back ...drill baby drill, close boarders, make tax cuts permanent, bring back law & order!
Agreed!
You know I clicked on your video to hear what the 8 best insurance companied and the first thing you did was disagree with the source of your presentation. Do you really know what you are talking about? I don't think so.
HEY ! i do NOT have 15 minutes to listen to you Ramble on !!!!!, just give me the damn info
Exactly! List the companies so we can just see them right away. I don't know if I trust this info. because I watched his video on the worst car insurance companies and a few of these companies he mentioned who are the best were also mentioned to be the worst.
Its because UA-cam pays for every 15 minutes a person watches, that the minimum time to get paid for a viewer....No quick list
