‘You’re in good hands’
Founded in 1931, the Allstate Corp. is the largest publicly held personal lines property and casualty insurer in America. Allstate is on the Fortune 500 list of largest companies in the U.S. The company markets private passenger automobile insurance under three brand names: Allstate, Encompass and Esurance.
Consider Allstate for handshakes, teens or conservative drivers
Allstate has more than 12,000 exclusive Allstate agencies and financial representatives across the U.S. and Canada, making it highly accessible for anyone who prefers to deal with an agent in person.
Parents with newly-licensed teens might benefit from taking teen drivers with them to meet with agents in person to discuss rates and coverages. The Allstate Foundation has created a number of resources geared toward helping teens become safe and responsible drivers. Pair these online resources and live agents with Allstate’s DriveWise app for monitoring of safe driving, and you’ve got a thoughtful plan for your teen driver.
The DriveWise program is a pay-as-you-drive plan that uses telematics to monitor your driving behavior. Conservative drivers should see a discount for consistently safe driving behaviors such as moderate breaking, staying below 80 mph and a low number of miles driven daily.

Positive Feedback (199)
Neutral/Negative Feedback (39)
"They did not cover the cost of my totaled car"
"All types of services offered"
"I wish the process was easier to understand and easier to complete."
"I would like them to explain their products and services offered better"
"Haven't had much of a chance deal with them yet"
"Their a lot nicer in person than over the phone."
"They raise rates for no reason, basically just because they can."
"Policy changes all the time and I don't like that"
"It does the job"
"The company says it cares about its customers but sometimes it does not work fairly for them"
"I find them to be expensive."
"The prices that they offer are fair, not great"
"Too expensive, poor customer service."
"My insurance agent and his office are nice and seem fine to deal with. The website is clunky and hard to maneuver around. Haven't had a recent claim."
"They can be helpful at times and other times, not so much."
"Nothing at this point in time to tell about that is good or bad"
"The only thing I don't like is they don't allow you to have a pitbull with my home insurance (which I bundle with auto), but fortunately that's not an issue with PA laws protecting us from having to give up our dog."
"It's acceptable"
"Be very careful to call the attention center after midnight, they are not the best to deal with then."
"Reliable when a claim arises? Who knows I haven't had to find out yet."
"I think they would do well if I did need to make a claim."
"I thought they were going to be this absolutely amazing insurance company. If customer service is important to you then this might not be the company for you. In my experience their customer service is not very good. When I called with an average question about my policy it’s up to three days to have someone contact me. Customer service is a very important thing to me personally. Don’t get me wrong I think they are a good insurance company and if your customer service is not that big of a deal to you probably will thnk it's a great company. But if you’re like me and you want a one on one relationship with your insurance company I would suggest looking around first."
"They are very responsive and try to meet my needs, they cover claims quickly but their prices are through the roof."
"They are very prompt but expensive"
"Bit pricey, but overall good coverage"
"It is to expensive"
"It was worth my time"
"Shop around before you make a decision to buy from them. They will try to rush you into things that you don't need."
"Mediocre, they don't seem to care about people."
"They are great when you need to file a claim. Rates could be a bit lower and email responses can sometimes seem short and uncaring, though"
"!I say always get it all in writing and read it"
"Allstate auto insurance has 4plans to choose from platinum package, gold package, standard policy and value package."
"No one at the local office speaks native english, so hard for me to understand them with my hearing at my age."
"They are very good but expensive."
"I have no problems with them"
"I have only been with Allstate for about a year and I have not had much interaction with them other than paying my bill."
"A company that is okay and can do better"
"They do what they say they will do"
"Have no real issues either way...have never had a claim. Wish I could get refund for no claims."
