What effect will a speeding ticket have on my State Farm auto insurance premium in Indiana? Would it be better to take the ticket deferral or just pay the fine? It was a minor 2 point violation for speeding 54 in a 40. The state trooper also issued a written warning for disregarding a traffic signal. This is my first ticket in over seven years and State Farm states this shouldn't raise my premium. Is this true or are they just saying this so I will pump more money into their company. Anyone familiar with this process.......Please Help?!?!

State Farm Insurance uses ridiculous, underhanded tactics...Anyone know of a really good auto insurance co.? My family has been a customer of a single office of State Farm for over 30 years, through two agents. The original guy was incredible--took the time to know and understand my family, their needs and concerns, he used to come to the house...real old school. The "new" guy (past 10 years) has been, well, either an absentee at best, or a @$$h01e at worst. My father is getting older, and has gotten himself into a few (3 or less) fender-benders and one accident that was close to a total loss, all over the past decade. My mother has a perfect record. I've had a few moving violations, two cases of total loss, and a couple fender-benders, again over the past decade. My most recent total loss was complicated by a DUI charge as well. Now here's the BS part...State Farm's office took it upon themselves to notify any other family members they had (who are NOT on the same policy as my parents and I) that my license was suspended (they waited until two weeks before I get it back). And that I shouldn't drive their vehicle. Now--I'm 29, again my family has bee a customer for over three decades...You're telling me this guy either couldn't trust us (all law-abiding citizens, except for my DUI, which was minor) and me not to drive while under suspension, or else he couldn't call us to discuss it over the phone if he indeed had any doubts? What's next? Telling all your extended family members when you get a ticket, so they'll make sure that you pay it? Or perhaps sending them your insurance premium, just so you won't forget about it?...ARGH! PLEASE. FOR THE LOVE OF ALL, TELL ME. Is there an insurance company or agent that is still "old school"? Who conducts business in the old, friendly manner? Who does your auto insurance, are you happy, and why (if you've never had any accidents or problems, please don't answer...I'm more concerned with how other companies address issues, not "I've paid my premium, never had an accident, and I'm happy with it.").
Has anybody had any experiences good or bad with State Farm insurance? I have had them since 1993 with my Auto insurance and my homeowners policy with them since 1999, and have never had to file any type of claim with them.

Which auto insurance companies will not cancel policy/raise rates if there is an accident? I am comparing prices for car insurance. I have had State Farm forever. After talking to them and asking them what I should look for when shopping for car insurance is a policy that wont cancel you or raise rates if you have an accident. We have made claims in the past (storm damage and I hit a tree stump - no actual vehicle to vehicle accidents) and our rates have not gone up. Do other companies do the same? What about Traveler's Auto Insurance?

Why isnt Stae Farm refunding my auto insurance? I took out insurance on a new vehicle that I purchased in February. I chose the down payment option of paying two months so that I would always be a month ahead. I March I received my bill and it was higher than the agreement that I signed (and had a copy of) when I got the insurance. I decided to cancel and just put my insurance under my mothers since I live with her and wouldn't have to pay but $60 extra to the company she has already. When I went to State Farm to cancel, I told them about the higher bill and they said that it was wrong...and that I should receive my refund for the month of March in the mail. I havent received it yet and called them to get the refund dept number...they wouldnt give it to me and said they would call themselves and call me back. When they called me back they said I wouldnt be getting a refund since I cancelled on March 15th, 5 days into the 2nd month and that I should've paid $300 and something instead of the $200 and something for my down payment. So why am I not getting a refund at all?? I AM listed on my mother's insurance as a driver, along with my vehicles. And secondly, it wasnt a quote given to me..it was the actual payment that I was to make and the agent then said that it was wrong and she would fix it, but I chose to cancel.
Does renters insurance cover items in my vehicle? I have renters and auto insurance thru State Farm. I heard that my "high crime" items (cds, computers, etc) are not covered if they are stolen from my car and that my laptop wouldn't be covered if it was stolen while out of my townhouse. Is there any truth to this? I would hate to purchase extra insurance if it isn't needed. My agent's secretary told me this, however I'm not sure how much to believe her since she is new and I've never dealt with her before.
which auto insurance is the best? Between Geico, Progressive, Safe Auto, and State Farm. Which of these would you suggest? Single, 1 driver, 1 no fault accident 5 yrs ago.
Does anyone else think Geico Insurance advertisements are annoying? I just don't take them seriously and I don't think their commercials are funny. I don't take Geico as a credible insurance company because of the way they advertise themselves. I have House and auto insurance with State Farm and love them. Although I take All State and some other agencies seriously as well. What do you all think? Its one thing when a beer company or a food item has a stupid fun commercial but when I am looking to purchase a serious service from someone, I just don't think it is appropriate to try and make a funny commercial. I want some seriousness and facts about why I should for example leave State Farm to go to Geico. So far that Gecko hasn't shown me why... And also they were more expense than State Farm and I have no Claims and perfect credit.
Can State Farm legally defraud customers? State Farm is charging customers a rate separate from the rate that is given when the customer accepts the insurance and pays. For example: if a person pays 1,200 for auto insurance for six months, State Farm claims (and does) charge a higher rate from the moment the contract period begins - unbeknownst to the hapless customer. Can this actually be legal?
What are some inexpensive, yet reliable auto insurance companies? I need a new auto insurance company, Allstate just raised my rates through the roof.

What homeowners and auto insurance do you recommend? I am shopping for homeowner's and Auto insurance. Progressive is the cheapest, and I like the fact that they cover pets that are riding in your car too. I am looking at them as well as Ameriprise, and Amica.

Do you think this is a good price for auto insurance? Is $201.12 a month for full coverage from State Farm a good deal? Progressive quoted me for $285 a month and it doesnt even include UM and the liability is at 10/20/25. State farm would cover me 25/50/25, auto death indemnity, UM, and more. I am a 22 year old female and i just got my license in Feb 07, and i live in Miami. This is for a 2003 Honda Civic LX 2dr coupe (paid in full). This is my first car. I was just wondering, if this is a good price compared to other people my age with similar coverage. I know my friend is paying $300 a month for his and hes 24.
More about State Farm fraud.? State Farm offered me an auto insurance policy of $844 for six months of coverage. All correct information, about speeding tickets, etc., was given. Two weeks after the contract period began, I got a call from the office of State Farm agent Lynne Barnhardt of Smithtown, New York. The agent told me that the rate was higher, and used some excuse about the driver's abstract from New York State. But all driver information had been disclosed: there was no deception issue, but an excuse to charge a higher rate. I cancelled at the end of the first month, and was not charged one-sixth of the six-month rate, but a higher amount. Thus, they started charging the higher rate from the moment I walked out of the office. Can this be legal?

How much will my auto insurance go up(rough idea) if I get a job where I would use my car? Just curious what range it might fall in. My premium with state farm is very low, about $70 a month with full coverage on a 1994 3000GT. Milage would be like 125 a day.
Do all auto insurance companies check with your DMV for your driving record? I got some minor accident on my record, something like bumping into someone and leaving a dent, I don't even really remember it was like 4 years ago. Anyway, this car was a rental that I dented and a very expensive one at that, ended up being 2500 to fix even though I could have popped the dent out for free. But because of this incident, state farm and geico are charging me out the wazo because I'm a 20 year old male with speeding tickets and this accident thing that happened a long ass time ago. The difference without the accident on there is amazing, so I'm trying to find a place that will ignore this thing that happened in SEP of 04. Anyone know of a place? Thank you. Yeah unfortunately taking a defensive driving course in Virginia won't get you anywhere.

Will my insurance rates go up if I report auto accident not my fault for hit and run? While I was shopping inside the mall an automobile rear ended my car while it was parked in the parking lot. Of course I didn't find out until I left the store and walked up to my car and saw the damage. I don't know who hit it because it was a hit and run and they left while I was in the mall. I have a $500 deductible. If I report this to my insurance company, State Farm, will it make my insurance rates go up and will it count against me, since there is no one that I can get this on (they got away). I estimate the cost of repair will be more than $500. Should I report it or not to my insurance company? If I don't report it I will have to pay full repairs out of pocket. What do you advise in this situation?

Auto Insurance Underwriters or Anyone please help!!! I need suggestion on how to fix my issue? I was in Illinois and as a car owner I got my insurance coverage from State Farm. I moved to Texas in 2006 leaving the old car in IL and purchased a new car TX. I transferred my insurance from IL agent to a TX agent. All my statements were received via online billing. I decided to move back to IL and around that same time apparently the State Farm agent I had in TX got in trouble for unethical practices and all his customers were transferred to another TX agent. Things apparently got shuffled and I never received my online email notification because I pay every 6 months. When it occured to me now back in IL I didn't get a bill I logged in and found that my account had been cancelled. State Farm says they cannot re-insure me because 30 days had lapsed. I have been with them and never late since 2000 and I don't know what to do now. Can someone suggest something I can try because now I'll have a gap in coverage. Also, my drivers license are IL and my new vehicle still has TX pl
