After being a homeowner for many years, I've had to switch insurance agents a few times. Honestly,…read moreI had gotten too settled and didn't want the headache of making another change, but deep down I knew I needed to due to poor service and lack or response. Thankfully, it was seamless to make the change! In addition, I would refer my clients to past insurance agents and they would come back and complain about them. Now was the time to make the change. I spent over a week off and on searching online, comparing insurance companies and agents while reading countless reviews looking for positive consistency. It was frustrating and overwhelming, until I came across Marc Dixon's office with Allstate. Hands down, Marc had the most positive reviews I have seen anywhere, including over 1,300 on Allstate's website, and now I understand why. From my very first inquiry, I immediately experienced the difference in service with Marc and his team! They picked up the phone, Marc responded timely, they understand coverages, they genuinely care, will ensure my insurance never lapses (I still don't know how that happened with my last agent), and will take the time each year at renewal to review and update my plan if needed. Marc Dixon and his incredible staff, Lisa Walker and Antonia Meyer fixed a few concerning issues with my prior policy, guided me, and the switch was done! He gave me the peace of mind of knowing my properties are protected just the way I wanted, and managed to save me some money. I have never worked with an insurance agent who is on top of it, and runs a company so smoothly and professionally. Marc and his staff are amazing! With gratitude!

I appreciate the rapid response of Marc and the individuals in his agency…read more Your insurance is only as good as your agent. Marc Dixon and his Allstate agency are the reason I feel like I have the best condo and auto insurance coverage I can get.

It is required that you earn a certain amount of credits to renew your license every other year. I was super stocked that I discovered this place, it is close to home, and I am not comfortable driving into town other than work. Classroom size is comfortable. It was not overly crowded, so everyone was able to sit comfortably. I guess I lucked out with the parking because there was lots available. I love it that I didn't need to look for street parking, they have their own private lot. Bathroom has a combination, and only 2 stalls but that wasn't a problem. This place is located next door to Zippy's in Waipio Gentry.

As an Administrative…read moreManager, I frequently need assistance with business policies, workers' compensation, vehicle insurance, insurance cards, and policy updates, and their office has consistently been responsive, professional, and helpful. I especially want to recognize Mike Choi and Deja Nako for their outstanding customer service. Mike is always professional, knowledgeable, and quick to respond. He follows through on requests, communicates clearly, and makes even complex insurance matters easy to navigate. Deja Nako has also been incredibly helpful and efficient, particularly when I need insurance documentation, policy information, or assistance with vehicle-related requests. She is always friendly, responsive, and willing to help. Whenever I have needed something for our business or vehicle policies, she has been quick to assist and help keep things moving. Even when the office is busy, the team consistently provides excellent communication and customer service. It is clear that Brandon Kim has built a strong team that genuinely cares about its clients. Thank you to Brandon, Mike, Deja, and the entire team for your continued support and outstanding service. It is truly appreciated.

It was nice for a change to walk in an actual office, and meet an actual agent with actual live team of workers. No more having to deal with a company that has a 1-800 mainland number having to talk with over the phone. It was a much needed change to switch, as Brandon analyzed our previous home policy with our previous insurance carrier and felt it was under insured. Although he increased the coverage, the premium was just about the same. Additionally, not needing to deal with a 3rd party company for the hurricane coverage as State Farm was able to cover it as well. As for our auto, unbelievable savings. Brandon gave my son a great discount on my his classic car since he almost never drives it. We have a great discount on our other auto's using the Drive Safe & Save App. The Bluetooth beacon was easy to connect to the State Farm Drive Safe App, and the beacon is left in the car to monitor our driving such as: speeding, hard breaking, fast cornering distracted driving. The app will rate your driving performance in each category, you can check on your score. My son fussed a bit about needing to have it in his other car, but when I suggested he pay his own policy, he was okay with it. The life insurance process took a while, but Brandon kept in touch every step of the way. He explained what would be happening next etc. Mister and I had the choice of doing either a phone interview or an on-line interview and the processor was so friendly and patient! I got everything ready in advance, such as my medical history, medications, doctors information etc. Ultimately, I did not need to take a blood exam because they spoke directly with my physician for the information to make a final decision! Brandon and his staff is so diligent, super duper friendly Brandon is straight up and professional. When leaving either a telephone message or sending Brandon an email, he responds right away! I'm so happy and feel secure being with State Farm. Brandon is so patient and took his time explaining the policies and is great at recommending what is best. THANK YOU BRANDON!, THANK YOU BRANDON'S STAFF!

Running a new business is difficult as is. When my business needed money the 1st place I went to…read morewas my local bank. Since I have an 800 credit score I thought this was going to be as easy as pie. However, I quickly learnt that banks require 2 years of tax returns in order to provide your business with a loan. Well that couldn't be done since I was only in business for a year. So I looked in to "alternative finance" when I came across Ohana Funding Group. Their only requirement is $5,000 a month in sales. They don't need your fico score, they don't require collateral. I called them up and they were able to provide excellent funding terms for my expansion needs. They were able to give me $100,000 within 48 hours, which was much faster then I imagined. I highly recommend Ohana Funding to anyone who expects to work with efficient and honest people with great rates.

From "What Tottles Meant" by Lewis Carroll I've been a First Command (nee' USPA/IRA) client for 30 years. They've helped me prepare for my not-so-far-away "Golden Years" by offering a diverse selection of investment products and portfolios from IRAs to Life Insurance, and other services. All of these are specifically tailored for the military member. Over the years I've experienced a wide spectrum of wealth managers and agents some with varied levels of assistance. For awhile having undergone a multi year drought of caring agents, I considered dropping them and going with a competitor firm. I stuck it out and am happy to report that I'm completely won over with my new wealth manager, Ethan, who is just about the best I ever imagined a First Command agent could be. He is motivated, understanding, and smarter than a room full of members attending a Mensa convention. When it comes to insurance, investments, IRAs, or other products, he's tops. I've full confidence in my investment products because they are delivering/performing at a level at or better than First Command forecasted. I'm grateful for the way they support the military members and families. Thank you for your past, present, and future support of my meager savings. If you are military or retired military, and even if you experienced lackluster First Command support in the past, I strongly recommend Ethan at this office for all your investment needs and questions.
