I strongly do not recommend Bridge First Insurance. My experience with them has been frustrating,…read morecostly, and revealing of serious gaps in their knowledge and customer care. I had an SR22 filing, a legal requirement that only the insurance company can see--not the customer. In June 2025, I sold my car and canceled the title. I then asked Bridge First to cancel my insurance. They did so without warning me that canceling an active SR22 policy would lead to automatic suspension of my driver's license. The cancellation was processed by Jessica, with no mention of the SR22, no questions asked, and no warning. A simple reminder would have saved me from losing my license, paying $175 in fees, and going through the stress of reinstating my driving privileges. When I called to understand what went wrong, I spoke with Wade, who was dismissive and unhelpful. Instead of assisting, he said it wasn't their responsibility to check my file or remind me about the SR22. Worse, he tried to shift the blame to Progressive, insisting that they--not Bridge First--should have warned me. He also claimed he couldn't discuss the SR22 further unless I showed it to him or got it from the DMV--a clear sign he doesn't understand that SR22 filings are only visible to insurance providers, not consumers. As a result, I wasted another hour on hold with the DMV, only to confirm what Bridge First should have known all along. This is unacceptable. Bridge First Insurance acts as if they are only here to sell policies--not to support or protect their customers. They take no responsibility when things go wrong, and their staff clearly lack basic knowledge about what they're selling. They also refused to continue communication, leaving me to clean up the mess alone. If you're looking for a company that understands insurance and values its customers, look elsewhere. Bridge First will not stand by your side, and their negligence will cost you time, money, and unnecessary stress. They do not deserve the ratings they currently have.

Edwin has been my insurance agent for about 4 months now and I am amazed at all the help he has…read moregiven me. Reasons to select him as your insurance agent: 1. Promptness and attention to detail. I also contacted another local Farmer's agent and had some difficulty reaching them by phone. I needed to set up insurance around the Thanksgiving break and Edwin got back to me right away and I was able to pay for our auto/home/umbrella policy over the phone. 2. Understands the system. I have a PhD and most people would consider me a smart person, but I do not understand insurance. Edwin very patiently explained all the details of the different limits to me. 3. Problem solver. Due to some confusion in the Farmer's system, I received a refund that I did not ask for. Edwin took care of this error by tracking down the paper trail and patiently explained to me what was going on. With most insurance companies, I probably would have needed to talk to customer service for hours to solve this problem that was not of my own making. 4. Overall good person and neighbor. I was hit by another car recently and Edwin explained my coverage, what to expect, and even offered to pick up groceries for me!

I contacted a few brokers and Alliance was by far the easiest to deal with and very responsive. After their initial reply to my online inquiry, I emailed back and explained what I was looking for and that I was hoping to get some new coverage as soon as possible. Paul wrote back right away and asked a few basic questions about my business. I responded late that night, and the next day they were able to get me a very reasonable quote, send me an application, and bind coverage in just a few hours, and I didn't even have to pay any portion of the premium upfront in order to get the new policy in place! Alliance set me up on quarterly payments and told me I would receive my first bill in a few weeks. I also had a couple of big contracts I was about to lose without proof of insurance and Cheri was able to generate a COI and send to me right away that same afternoon, which I greatly appreciated. I was very impressed with the fast, friendly and efficient service I received from Alliance and would definitely recommend them to any small business looking to get affordable insurance coverage quickly and without a lot of the red tape and headaches that you usually encounter when applying for a new policy.

It is so convenient! It is intuitive and a breeze to use for example to report a claim, a cracked windshield, schedule roadside assistance, or virtually anything you need to do to manage or use your policies! For example, driving to Ohio one Thanksgiving, we got a chip in our windshield and I reported it on the app., scheduled a repair at our destination, and received text updates regarding the repair which was fixed either that day or the next day at my Mother-in-law's house in Ohio! It doesn't get much easier than that! We had a nearly totaled automobile damage claim a couple of years ago and the Geico adjuster was so kind, thorough and easy to work with and kept us apprised of everything involving our claim throughout the entire repair process! Each time I have used their roadside assistance, their tow truck guys have always been on time, kind and courteous and have consistently done a great job, be it a lock out of a vehicle, a tire change, or just a "crapped out" vehicle. I've had windshield repairs done at my secure work facility, my home driveway, and my Mom-in-law's house that Geico arranged and paid in full, nearly every time. Their customer service for both automobile insurance and jewelry insurance is beyond kind! Every interaction via phone call has been positive with Geico resolving any confusion or issues each and every time. Their pricing is great, too! We have never been penalized, cost wise, for any claims we have had over the years! I shop our insurance around, especially prior to renewal, and Geico is easy to get quotes as well as being financially stable as they are AM Best rated as A++, or Superior, in terms of financial solvency. Thanks, Geico, for years of great service, great value, and great coverage options!

My recent experience with GEICO during a claim involving my daughter's (who is a minor) vehicle was…read moreextremely frustrating. Despite providing detailed documentation, timestamped photos, and later video evidence, GEICO repeatedly relied on statements from the repair shop (Douglas Collision Center) that were inconsistent with the actual condition of the vehicle. During the first repair attempt, the shop created new damage to the car and then claimed I caused it. GEICO told me the shop had video proof, which turned out to be untrue. Even after this was clarified, GEICO continued to defer to the shop's statements without requesting any evidence from them or reviewing the photos I offered. The assigned adjuster was dismissive throughout the process and stated that GEICO had "fulfilled their duties" and would not assist further -- even though the dispute centered around damage the repair shop created and a repair process that I had withdrawn authorization for. My written complaint sent on November 13 received no response from her supervisor. Only after taking the car to an independent shop was the full extent of the defective repairs, bumper misalignment, paint flaws, and a missing underbody panel documented and corrected. That independent shop ultimately obtained payment from the original repair facility and Geico for the corrective work, confirming that the issues were not caused by us. My experience included: * GEICO relying on statements from a repair shop that were contradicted by evidence * A failure to investigate disputed facts before making claim decisions * Dismissive communication from the assigned adjuster * No response from the adjuster's supervisor despite written notification * A refusal to assist further even after new damage caused by the repair shop was proven Based on how this claim was handled, I can't recommend GEICO for situations that require careful investigation, fairness, or support when clear evidence contradicts a repair shop's statements.
