When I noticed most of chairs were taken by members waiting to be called, I got out of line and left to avoid the bottleneck. I also did not want to spend a beautiful morning in line with the sun glaring in my face from the front window, listening to grumbling members. Terrible. As I left the office, there were members still coming in. This is a small office compared to many that I have visited over the years. Perhaps it's time to open a new branch in between the only 2 branches in Coachella to accommodate the surplus of members in this area. We don't pay for membership to wait in line all morning. We can do that for free at the DMV. This seemingly never-ending queue is not fair to AAA employees either, having to deal with tired and grumpy members who did not anticipate a long line for assistance. Member 42 years. First time to experience this and very disappointed.

What a disappointment. I contacted Desert View to become the agent of record for my homeowner's…read morepolicy. Initially, I spoke with Nancy, who was extremely helpful and professional, but she explained that her husband, Rick, would be the one to manage the transfer. Rick was initially interested in my business, particularly when I indicated that I'd also like to talk about transferring insurance for our three cars when we completed the homeowner's transaction. After that, he consistently dropped the ball, specifically not following through or returning calls. Finally, I received the paperwork he promised and returned it promptly. He assured me that he would send the form to my carrier that day and the transfer would take about five business days to complete. I gave him more than two weeks, then called my carrier. They had no paperwork. I called the office and spoke with Nancy, who informed me that Rick was out of the office until late next week. She looked around his desk and found the transfer request that had never been sent to my carrier. Nancy sincerely apologized. She said the business was very difficult and busy these days. Yes, that happens, but I shouldn't have to chase down an agent to take my business. I really wanted to work with a local, independent agent, but it definitely won't be Desert View. Clearly, their business is booming, and they don't need new clients.

Very disappointed in the service from the agency and State Farm in general. The agency was very…read morehelpful initially, took the time to review our current policies (home, 2 cars, golf cart and life). and make recommendations. THEN, after the dust settled, it went downhill. Some of this may be State Farm in General but it seems that no one is manning the store or training people at this agency. First, even though i was always paperless (at another State Farm agency), i got paper bills for all of our policies throughout a 3 1/2 year period with the Ford Agency. I called numerous times to get them to turn it off (both at the local office and through the 800 number)... it never worked. They had some lame excuse for why it continued to send bills. Funny, it never sent them when our policies were at our previous Orange County State Farm agency???? Customer service at the office is pretty hit or miss. Some days responsive, other days i felt like i was talking to a temp who knew nothing about insurance and just knew how to answer a phone The final straw was: we sold our home in August this year. I called to cancel that policy and get a new policy on the new home. I was told State Farm wasn't writing new home policies in CA. Regardless of whether we had home insurance with them for YEARS! This negative experience is all on State Farm but then the agency compounded the negative. We changed our home insurance to AAA and decided to see if bundling the cars in would make it cheaper. It lowered our total monthly rate about $40 a month (below State Farm's rates) so we decided to do it. After the 14 days waiting period for AAA, I called the Ford Agency a week ago to cancel our State Farm Policies on the cars. The woman that answered was not a name i recognized but i explained that we were bundling through AAA since State Farm wouldn't write our home policy. She said ok, she would cancel the policies (leaving the life policy) and we hung up. Today i got a 'billing notice' saying State Farm would be taking the FULL amount of the policy. I called the Ford Agency and was told "oh, it takes 10-14 days for the regional office to process (catchup) that. They'll take the money for the auto policies and then refund it." WTH? I wasn't told any of this when i called... she just said "OK" and hung up. If I'd known, i would have cancelled these prior to my AAA policy going into affect just because State Farm has a 2 week 'lag' time to 'catch up'.... GRRRRRRR. Now I'm double covered! After years (20+) with State Farm, we will never go back. Not only is State Farm going down the tubes but this Agency is not run professionally or with their customers in mind. Like so many things these days, it's on 'auto pilot' while the Agent collects his fees for return policies. No one is training customer service or really CARES about their customers... Do yourself a favor... call AAA. THEY still do customer service the right way. While sometimes their rates might be a bit more, it's well worth the positive customer experience. They know customer service inside and OUT and train their agents to give that in every instance!
