Our company is so grateful we found Brian at UPstream Benefits!…read more We are a company of 15 and wanted to add health insurance for our employees. We had no idea where to start and the few companies we tried for a quote left us with no information. Brian actually held our hand through the process, came in to the office and spoke with our employees about the different options which was very helpful. I HIGHLY recommend this company as it really helped and continues to help us!

Brian was and continues to be extremely helpful and informative within the entire process!read more

Toward the end of last year when we had to add our new baby boy to our health insurance, we went straight to Ray, knowing he would give us options with the best rates and coverage, and he indeed, delivered. If you're like us, you're probably paying for Homeowner's Insurance throughout the year via an additional amount on your mortgage, which is put into Escrow. Again, like us, you enjoy the convenience of allowing the mortgage company to pay the insurance from this Escrow account, so you don't have to think about yet another large bill (hello, property taxes) every year. If this sounds like you, CALL CAROLINA INSURANCE GROUP, because you're probably overpaying! We have the same coverage we've always had, but after asking Ray to price some Homeowner's Insurance for us, we're paying $800 LESS per year! We still don't have to worry about an extra bill, since it's built into our mortgage payment, but we're now paying less on that bill every month (without even refinancing)! You owe it to yourself and your family to make sure you're not overpaying on your insurance. Think about what you could do with that extra cash each month!

My car sat for weeks before a tow even came out, let alone any plans for how to fix it. I would never have expected a major insurance company to put me through this. I wish I never switched from GEICO. This was hell. Not only that but the shop they took my car to scratched my car, chipped my mirror in 2 places and gave it back to me with a non-functioning window on top of all that. And when I tried to get them to fix it they said the insurance would need to take ANOTHER deductible fee because what the shop did is separate from the initial crash. I'm considering filing a small claim against Calliber Collision, State Farm's "preferred" shop. And as for State Farm, I'll be switching from them soon. Any other company would be better than this. They are the WORST.

No contents paid and had to sell the only thing I had of value for 500$ for an attorney to avoid misdemeanor charges bc no money to clean damage from fire. Sister passed away one week after the fire, mother had a stroke paralyzed one side of her body. Agents antagonized the necessity to write down every item I owned. To this day it is a tragedy I haven't healed from. The agent suddenly stopped communication denying coverage. After all of this, I could not be covered by any homeowners insurance bc my home burned down by no fault of mine. I purchased this home at 19 years old. USDA RHD loan based upon my income.

There was a time when dealing with any kind of insurance company would generate feelings of dread…read moreand frustration, but that's until I signed up with Meg at State Farm Insurance. I've always been greeted with a welcoming environment without having to deal with someone who you could tell did not have an answer for you. I must admit, I was concerned when I couldn't just walk in the office as normal any more, but with all the questionable behavior coming from certain segments of society, now I appreciate the fact that the door is secure when I'm inside.   Now, I can't tell someone that if you visit Meg's State Farm location you will always get the lowest rates for insurance, and if you find something lower, remember you get what you paid for. On the other hand, what I can say is you will get the best insurance deal that will cover what you need if you visit Meg's location. So if you're shopping around and still haven't decided who you should consider next, check this place out. I strongly doubt that you will regret it.

I reached out to Meg personally 8 weeks ago with a time sensitive question...she replied that she is so busy that her time was precious. She would try and call me when she had a chance. We have no idea why she had choosen to act this way. Now after talking with corporate- MEG'S AGENCY HAS , PER CORPORATE- OUT AND OUT LIED TO US ABOUT OUR POLICY!!!!! My husband had an appointment for a phone conference and then received a call from Ann that she had accidentally double booked Meg and would call him to reschedule- that was a week ago. Have Meg or Ann called either of us....nope. Never had any issues when David ran this agency, he was always ready to help, at anytime. We had to finally reach out to David to say....hey, can you help us? I'm thinking its time to call the NC Insurance Commioner and report her, which I just finished doing!

I bought a new policy and requested all of my nationwide policies to be transferred. The new policy went into effect and they did not transfer the other policies (i.e. auto, etc). I paid a higher rate for approx. 6 months. I found out the policy on my wife ring was not transferred, drop, forgot, etc. It has disappeared in the transfer and has not been rewritten. I asked the young lady on the phone for someone to call me to review my life insurance policy (different company). I am asking an insurance agent to look at my policy and give me advice. Basically I am asking for sales pitch. Well the young lady was very nice and told me someone would call me. It has been a week and I sent email reminder 3 days ago. I have sent an email to Michelle Keener and I wonder if I will get a reply. I have been a Nationwide customer for 22 years.
