1 /5 Gino Meixel: 20+ Year Customer—Extremely Disappointed with State Farm
I’ve been with State Farm for over 20 years and my mother 30 years probably.
Originally, Craig Struble was our agent, and later the agency transitioned to Marissa Johnson. I’ve maintained a spotless driving record and have never filed a claim in all that time.
Today, I received an email stating that $215.42 would be debited from my account—up significantly from last month’s premium of around $157.00 over 33% jump or more and before $110.00 a month it just keeps inching up.
As a safe driver with a long history of loyalty and no claims, this sudden increase feels completely unfair.
What made the situation worse is that I called the agency to discuss the increase—but it was Friday around lunchtime, and the office is closed on Fridays etc Really?. How convenient.
You’d expect better availability from a Trillion Dollar company handling people’s Insurances - finances and protection.
Let’s be honest—these agents earn hefty commissions. How do I know? I have clients who work for State Farm, and companies that Insure Insurance companies. I understand exactly how the system works, and its frustrating to see good drivers like myself pay more and more, while the industry continues to profit.
It seems like responsible policyholders are now covering the cost of broader risk pools, fire-related claims, and outdated regulations that have nothing to do with our own behavior. After two decades of loyalty, this is incredibly disappointing.
Like I said I called into discuss this Increase today Friday at noon and Closed on fridays nice having a 4 day week!
