Feedback of Surveyed Policyholders
Our survey asked policyholders to share experiences or give feedback that they would
like to share with others looking to potentially buy from their current insurance company. Here's what they had to say:
Positive Feedback (84)
Neutral/Negative Feedback (10)
"When we first got the insurance policy we got it because eventually we were going to start a family. The only thing I didn't like about it was the guy seemed very sales pitchy and you could tell that he just wanted to get more out of us instead of actually caring about our needs. We still ended up getting a policy through the company because we knew we had to get one. And they're pretty reputable. The guy that we first initially sat down with ended up leaving. He also said that he had just started the job. You could tell it was very sales-driven just by the way he seems so eager to get us a policy. We had to get one regardless though that's why my answers were pretty neutral."
"Cannot access online"
"A very different approach of this insurance company"
"No problems yet, but I haven't made a life insurance claim. Not sure if I have the best insurance out there, but the rates are reasonable."
"So far I like the company and what they provide"
"My rep is not responsive to emails or phone calls. Even his assistant isn’t very timely"
"Great service, but you need to call them. Their website and online services are not top of the line, but they are improving"
"Didn't choose them, don't know much about them, just kept the policy."
"I am sure they are taking care of everything"
"Compare your insurance policy with mine, you will get the answer - I'm sure mine is cheaper"
