Took out Auto and Homeowners Ins., with Farmers. After calling in for a quote on their 800 number. Was pleased with quote on both and cost on both. (what I could afford.) Farmers faxed/mailed bill to Mtg. Co. - Fine. Then (in the mail) comes a hard copy of what I had e-mail signed up for and however, noticed they were adding MORE charge to my Homeowners, more monies, (called Mtg. Co.,found out in the amount of $96.00.) No notice of the amount mentioned in dec page. They when behind my back and charged Mtg.Co./me this extra amount. After making a few visits to the AGENT (here) whom THEY assigned me here in Smyrna, TN., I asked about this. He said, "let me go through your policy and find where this extra amount came from". And he would get my $96, back. He did alright TRY!! He (with out my approval & no amendment), he changed the amount of my coverages to lower amounts!! And when I called 800 number they verified that he did changes. 1st they told me the $96 was for an inspection (never got. NOT TRUE). (Already had to pay member ship fee of $25.) Then too, I was told they don't charge for home inspection. Spent 2 hours on the phone being pass around, the last woman I spent 45 minutes with changed back my limits to the original which I signed on for. Told me, "However, I can not change your deductable back to what it was". Three people at Farmers told me that I would get a refund of the EXTRA Money ($96 that was taken out from Escrow). Come yesterday, I get a refund check in the mail for not even close to the $96, that they owe me. And when I called and spoke to the second person, he said, "your shingles where different then what I had on my house & written in the policy". I TOTALLY BELIEVE & feel I WAS SCAMED BY FARMERS INSURANCE. And I will keep working to get my money back. IF THEY DID THIS TO ME, HOW MANY OTHERS DID THEY PULL THIS SCAM WITH?!!!!!

Different Eras, Same Exceptional Service
Farmers not only prides itself on helping you plan wisely for the unexpected, but also on helping restore order when it occurs, so you can keep moving along the road of your life’s plans.
In 1959 a Farmers customer wrote us a letter of surprised gratitude when his car battery was replaced just an hour after it was stolen. A letter from a couple in 2002 wrote that their Farmers agent and Claims Adjuster “were exceptional in their handling of our grief, what we needed to do, and helpful in many other ways.” That same year, when Hurricane Rita struck Beaumont, Texas, Farmers sent 300 agents to assess damages while policy holders were evacuated. Farmers also donated $100,000 for the city’s emergency operations center and two megawatt generators that restored power to Beaumont. Whatever year or decade a disaster occurs, you can count on us to be there for you.
