Thats my point. Liberty Mutual went to the DMV and showed one ticket. State Farm says their DMV report shows two. That's why I'm saying they have to be making this crap up to have an excuse to raise my rates. I mean why does this come up over a year after the fact?

Well... tying the two subjects of this thread together (and re-vitalizing it), I keep getting notices for a group thing from Liberty, for insurance, sponsored by AARP. Up til now, I've refused to even look at it, because AARP helped sponsor the non-Affordable Healthcare Act... (otherwise known as the biggest cluster-f'k this country has ever seen).
However, since I *do* have State Farm (and my rates *have* been slipping to the upside... which is mind-blowing consider I insure my house, car, bike, and a rental property all with them), I'll now be looking into Liberty independently...

LOL, otherwise known and the "completely unconstitutional and un-affordable care act".

At least AARP sponsors Jeff Gordon so ill cut them some slack :)

I think march should be official revival of the dead thread month!

We have State Farm and couldn't be happier, but it wasn't always that way. We were with another State Farm agent and couldn't stand that one. I've learned over the years it's not so much the corporations that generally suck it's the penis wrinkles working there.

This whole thread brings up an interesting point.... Just because you have been with a company for a while doesn't always mean that it is best to stay with them.

Its good to shop around from time to time....

I had my progressive agent even tell me that!

Things that affect driving history, credit rating, etc change over the years and just because geico had the best rate for me 5 years ago, when I went to add a new car they no longer had the best rates... progressive did. I did shop them all though.


So if this is a lesson for anyone, it never hurts to make the phone call every two years just to check!

Here comes the Rep & Thanks!

Logic tells me that you need to confirm you can get a cheaper rate before cancelling.

Otherwise, painful as it might be, you may have to get them to put you on the old rate after confirming your driving record.

Where are they getting their records from ? Seems like bad data. Surely this would concern someone in State Farm who probably pay a pretty penny for this data to find it is inaccurate. Have they being getting cancelled contracts from bad customer data before ? is this a money losing trend due to errors in their processes ?

Do money-losing contract losing bad data reports make it into their quarterly share holder report ?

I'm wondering how many other State Farm customers get their numbers fiddled with and then charged double ?

I'm hopeful this is a one off. Otherwise there are serious implications on their internal processes, govt watchdogs, loss of revenue due to errors or blatant criminality.

I've been with State Farm ever since I started driving and my agent is a lady from my parent's church. She's always taken good care of me. I do still shop around every now and then, but I'm always amazed at how much more expensive every other company is.
