The worst insurance company I have ever had the misfortune to try

The worst insurance company I have ever tried to sign up with. The biggest negative is there isn't a single person or office you deal with. The people who sign you up are not the people who address problems, even if it is only 24 hours later. Different departments and people for different issurance products, e.g., auto vs. home vs umbrella. It was all a convoluted mess and they were force to cancel my policies less than 24 hours after issuing them because of their mistakes. I will likely never give them a second chance because it cost me 10+ hours of wasted time. And getting refunds is horrible too. They still rely primarily on postal mail.

Mike has renewed my faith in the insurance business. After several absolutely traumatizing experiences with other companies (cough cough, State Farm, Minnisota Life), Mike went out of his way to actually help me and answer my questions. He is compassionate and empathetic. Other companies made me feel like I was interrupting their busy day of nefarious deeds. Mike made me feel comfortable and heard. If I met Mike in the wild I'm confident that we would be fast friends.

Claims were always handled as well as expected and the new agent I was transferred to is really good. I have been with American Family Insurance since 1968. My only complaint is that the premiums seem to be higher than the other companies that have contacted me. In fact hundreds of dollars less.

I am not referring to any particular claim so their was no claim on 2/12/2026
