State Farm Auto Insurance
State Farm is everywhere. The leading US personal lines property/casualty company (by premiums), State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company is the #1 provider of auto insurance. It also is the leading home insurer and offers non-medical health and life insurance through its subsidiary companies. Its products are marketed via some 17,000 agents in the US and Canada. Competition has increased with the fall of barriers between the banking, securities, and insurance industries. State Farm's not-so-secret weapon is a federal savings bank charter (State Farm Bank) that offers consumer financial products through State Farm agents and by phone, mail, and the Internet.
Reviews
State Farm Rebates
Pros: Inexpensive considering the state.
Cons: Insurance usually goes up for speeding tickets.
I have been a customer of State Farm Auto Insurance for ten years, my husband used them when we got married and I just went ahead and insured my vehicle with them.
Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there -- to pay, but not to defend
Pros: Solid company, quick (sometimes too quick) to pay claims
Cons: not willing to contest liability
In my experience, State Farm is quick to process claims, but not willing to take the insured's (that's me) part if there is disputed liability.
State Farm - More Than Auto Insurance
Pros: Longevity; Superior Coverage
Cons: Has Stop Holds on Writing New Claimants
As with most kids, I followed my parents lead when I first started driving and needed automobile insurance. State Farm was their insurance company and so it became mine also.
