    Hey bud…

    If you actually read this closer, it was a survey of “independent” agents…unless you are one of the few rural agents with a grandfathered Allstate contract, you will not see them here. I am glad that you’re not my doctor!

    Safety is not a bad company to work with, but they are basically a Massachusetts Auto company. What kind of underwriting do they really do that makes them responsive?

    State Farm and Allstate’s growing reputation earns them what they deserve.

    I was pretty surprised when I read this list b/c I was rear ended by a West Bend’s insured son on 12/31/07 on my way to work. The claims agents SUCKED! And it took forever to get my check to fix my car…

    I can understand how the independents are gaining on the captives as far as market share they have more policy/underwriting flexibility and on the spot service capabilities.. captive agents’ hands are tied more and more by management that is out of touch with their customers

    All of these are smaller, regional carriers who possese a limited appetite or market focus. It could be that once you get to a certain size you lose the ability to be as close to your agent as you can be is you are smaller and more focused. Just a thought
