    In Ohio and had State Farm till 2004. Had a first claim in life on a new pickup. 2800 bucks, and only involved my pickup. No other people, or vehicles. They added a surcharge after claim that added up to a few hundred more than the claim on top of my policy.

    Home,auto insurance, cell, internet, plan on changing every 2 years to always have the best pricing. They don't reward customers. Just give discounts to new customers. I would also argue switching jobs every 3-5 years will net you more money than retiring from one company.

    I had State Farm in the early 2000s. Living on a shoestring budget. I went with another company to take advantage of lower premiums.

    For some dumb reason I came back to State Farm. The jack ### insurance agent tacked on an extra fifty bucks to say "welcome back".

    After my six month sentence was up, I dropped State Farm like a greasy bowling ball.

    We got State Farm last June. 3 vehicles and home owners. Every time renewal time gets near we shop around. Have no problem changing companies every year. Money talks.

    To be fair, they paid the claim on my Harley when I wacked a deer with it, which was north of $5K.

    Payment is also convenient, since the agent is on my way to work I can drop the check right in the mail slot.

    I couldn’t do that, at least not in the LTL sector.

    I hate the way union outfits operate as far as policy and procedure minutia is concerned, and it seems like every other company operates that way.
