Date: December 20, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Customer Service
I would rate them a '4' currently. I have had this insurance for less than a year and have not had to submit any claims. Signing up for their website and navigation was very straightforward.

Date: December 20, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Premium
This company offered the cheapest premium while providing the closest coverage to what I was currently receiving. The deductible is slightly higher due to my new house being bigger, but that is not a result of the company.

Date: December 20, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Policy Offerings
This insurance pretty closely covers exactly what I had for coverage for my previous house. I work with an agency that chooses the best option for me based on premium costs and the amount of coverage I want.



Date: October 07, 2019    Age: 50 to 59    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Premium
The premium is very competitive with other companies - based on the one time we did look around. And the deductible is fair.


Date: October 04, 2019    Age: 50 to 59    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Customer Service
We have been with State Auto for years. Not that we've had many claims over the years, but when we have, the company has been quick to help.I do not have one negative thing to say!


Date: September 06, 2019    Age: 40 to 49    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Policy Offerings
My home insurance offer seems to be better now than when I was with all State Auto Insurance. Don't mind having a lower rate than what I'm currently paying now.


Date: September 04, 2019    Age: 40 to 49    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Customer Service
Have been with State Auto Insurance since 2008 and I have received nothing ,but superb response each time I contact their customer service with any problem that I may have.


Date: July 09, 2019    Age: 20 to 29    Gender: Married    Marital Status: Male

Customer Service
The customer service at State Auto is on par with other insurance companies - it is really good. I am always able to get help when I need it.


Date: July 08, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Married    Marital Status: Female

Premium
I think the premium and deductible is slightly better than the larger, more well known companies. State Auto has less employees, less overhead.


Date: July 08, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Married    Marital Status: Male

Customer Service
We just moved to a new house and they are a new insurance company for us. So far we have not had to file a claim, so I don't have anything negative or positive to advise about them.


Date: July 07, 2019    Age: 20 to 29    Gender: Unmarried    Marital Status: Male

Policy Offerings
I am happy with the offerings of my home insurance company policy. It aligns with the benefits I was recently getting from my previous company, provides some extra benefit in some areas.


Date: July 07, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Married    Marital Status: Male

Premium
State Auto allows cheap and affordable premiums and also you can choose your deductable. We have a $1000 deductable and super afordable payments.


Date: July 06, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Policy Offerings
State Auto offers the same benefits for home insurance as most other insurance companies. The offerings they provide meet my needs for home insurance.


Date: July 01, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Premium
The premium is slightly higher than what I have previously paid, but the house I moved to is larger and covers more than my previous policy. The deductible is the standard 1%, which I am happy with.


Date: June 19, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Premium
I am mostly satisfied with the premium. It would be great if it was cheaper, but it is paid from my escrow account and I rarely deal with it.


Date: June 19, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Customer Service
I have not had to use the customer service for my home insurance, but the service for the auto insurance is pretty decent. They are quick to reply and helpful. I would imagine the same would be true for the home insurance side.



Date: June 06, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Married    Marital Status: Female

Premium
The premium and deductible my insurance company offers are much better than that of other companies I have gotten quotes from or used in the past.



Date: June 01, 2019    Age: 20 to 29    Gender: Unmarried    Marital Status: Female

Premium
The premium and deductibles are fair for what I am getting, although I found cheaper rates elsewhere, they have good integrity and a good reputation.

Date: May 30, 2019    Age: 20 to 29    Gender: Married    Marital Status: Female

Premium
Premium and deductible is less than other companies which is the main reason I chose to go with them, and also for similar policies.


Date: May 26, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Married    Marital Status: Male

Home insurance company has great customer service. They are friendly and willing to answer any questions, and don't make you feel like an inconvenience.


Date: May 25, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Unmarried    Marital Status: Male

Premium
The main reason why I chose to go with my currently insurance company was reliability I like the way they presented their insurance.


Date: May 24, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Married    Marital Status: Female

Customer Service
State Auto has the absolute best rates and allows you to always choose when you would like to pay. They are very helpful when help is needed. I highly reccomend State Auto.



Date: March 29, 2019    Age: 40 to 49    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Customer Service
We have had to contact our home insurance company regarding damage done to our roof.They were very attentive, concerned with our issue, and quick to find a resolution for the issue.


Date: March 28, 2019    Age: 40 to 49    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Premium
After reviewing several different home insurance quotes from approximately 4 different companies, our home insurance company was quite comparable in price and deductible.


Date: January 07, 2019    Age: 50 to 59    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Premium
We have a $500 dollar deductible with our policy. I wish it was lower for smaller types of damage, but the policy would cost a bunch more so I have left it at $500.


Date: January 05, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Website/App
I haven't had to file a claim on the website, but I use it for my auto insurance and it is not user-friendly. It is hard to find where you need to go to pay your bill and to find coverage information. I would imagine that the home insurance side would be the same.


Date: December 30, 2018    Age: 50 to 59    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Customer Service
In terms of home insurance, the rates seem in the ball park and we once incurred damage from hail the size of golf balls. They replaced the roof and then some. So no big complaints.


Date: December 29, 2018    Age: 50 to 59    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Policy Offerings
The best I know, the offerings are competitive with other insurers. My insurer, regular sends notices of additional coverages we can purchase or consider.


Date: November 28, 2018    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Policy Offerings
Insurance covers loss of any part of our home, including what is on the inside. It is also insured against trees falling on it and against flood damage.


Date: November 26, 2018    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Policy Offerings
Dwellings - exterior damage from natural occurrences ie, roof, siding, windows, interior damage such as fire, water damage.


Date: November 21, 2018    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Website/App
I dislike the company's website because it is very limited. It only provides general information and an ability to pay your bill. You are not able to log in with a username and password to see your account, coverage, and statements.


Date: November 19, 2018    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Customer Service
Have not had any issues with the company's company service itself, though my agent;s office was a mess. Had several issues with receiving replies or straight answers from the agent. We ended up calling the main customer service line for the company and got all the help we needed and more.


Date: November 18, 2018    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Premium
Pretty on par. Our premiums were slightly higher but only because we chose slightly higher coverage. Compared to other companies, they were pretty much the same.


Date: November 16, 2018    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Policy Offerings
I'd say they are relatively on par, though they do explain some of the ins and outs a little better. The more painful part is that they do not have a summary type document that gives you the low down on what coverage you are getting, instead you get the full, barely intelligible to normal people, policy documents.


Date: November 04, 2018    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Policy Offerings
I am not sure about this because fortunately I have not had to use it much. It did cover damage from water in the basement and it also covered loss of food and repairs to our home when we lost power due to a car accident that occurred very close to our home.


Date: October 05, 2018    Age: 50 to 59    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Communication
I have not had to communicate with the home insurance side of State Auto, but the car insurance side has been helpful and quick to communicate. I would hope, the home insurance side would do the same.


Date: October 04, 2018    Age: 20 to 29    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Policy Offerings
Dwelling, other structures, personal property, loss of use, personal liability, medical payments, foundation, water backup, water damage, windstorm or hail


Date: October 02, 2018    Age: 40 to 49    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Unmarried

Website/App
I dislike the company's website because it is very limited. It only provides general information and an ability to pay your bill. You are not able to log in with a username and password to see your account, coverage, and statements.


Date: October 01, 2018    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Customer Service
The only interaction I've had with this is through my insurance agent, who I get along with very well. I trust his knowledge and instincts in offer me the best the business has to offer.


Date: September 29, 2018    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Website/App
It's kind of tough to figure out how to pay the bill online. I like electronic pay, and their website is not super helpful in this way.


Date: September 27, 2018    Age: 50 to 59    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Communication
There is nothing I dislike about the interaction and communication of the insurance company. Communication is easy and straight forward with a local agent available. Mailed documents come promptly to my home address.

Premium
I am mostly satisfied with the premium. It would be great if it was cheaper, but it is paid from my escrow account and I rarely deal with it.

Date: September 13, 2018    Age: 50 to 59    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

The agent with whom I work takes care of all of my insurance needs in a polite and professional manner. I couldn't ask for a better customer service experience than the one I get from my agent.


Date: September 11, 2018    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Customer Service
The customer service is good. I can call or go to a local agent if I have any questions or if I have to make adjustments to the plan or to file a claim.


Date: August 31, 2018    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Date: August 13, 2018    Age: 20 to 29    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

I was with Allstate for both home and auto coverage. The rates just continued to go up and up, so I had to look for something else. State Auto provided the same coverage at a lower rate.

Website/App
I haven't had to file a claim on the website, but I use it for my auto insurance and it is not user-friendly. It is hard to find where you need to go to pay your bill and to find coverage information. I would imagine that the home insurance side would be the same.
