Bad customer service

Bad customer service. When it came time to file a claim, things were delayed, slow, unresponsive.

Won’t fix a double payment

When I signed up for my insurance I didn’t realize that we had escrow insurance set up. So I paid the amount in full. Then my mortgage provider paid again. So we’ve double paid. When I asked for a refund, I got a call back and an email. However, the number to return the call was disconnected and I replied multiple times to the email and nobody responded. I’m not sure I will be able to get the money back or not without going a legal route.

Hi Sarita, we’re very sorry to hear about the issues you’ve encountered with your double payment and the difficulties in reaching us. We understand how frustrating this situation must be, and this is not the level of service we aim to provide.

We were made aware of the double charge and took immediate action to correct it. You should have received your refund, and we sincerely apologize for the oversight on our part. Someone from our team reached out via phone to inform you about the refund.

If you have any further questions or concerns, please contact our dedicated support team via email at support@obieinsurance.com or via phone at (773) 820-7132. We appreciate your patience and the opportunity to make things right.

Tried calling and emailing to reach customer service to confirm that a payment was completed. Did not receive a response to any of my inquiries for well over a month.

Hi Halie, we’re very sorry to hear about the difficulties you’ve experienced trying to reach our customer service team. We understand how important it is to get timely confirmation on payments and apologize for the delay and lack of response to your inquiries.

Whenever a payment is made on an Obie branded policy, an email confirmation, including policy documents, is typically sent to the insured. We apologize if you did not receive this confirmation. We have reviewed your inquiry and found that it was addressed after 30 days due to the current processing time in our billing inbox, which we understand is not ideal.

For quicker responses in the future, we recommend reaching out to our support team directly via email at support@obieinsurance.com or via phone at (773) 820-7132, where inquiries are handled within 24-48 hours.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We appreciate your patience and the opportunity to improve our service.

Hi Joan, we’re very sorry to hear that you did not receive a call back from an agent regarding your quote. We understand how important it is to receive timely assistance, and it’s clear we didn’t meet your expectations in this instance.

Your experience does not reflect the level of service we aim to provide. We are currently investigating why your call was not returned and taking steps to ensure this doesn’t happen again.

To assist you promptly, please contact us via email at support@obieinsurance.com or via phone at (773) 820-7132, and we will prioritize your request for a quote.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We appreciate your patience and the opportunity to make things right.

Don't Use Them

I input the information on the property correctly and after closing escrow they told me that it did not meet their guidelines even though it was a duplex when I submitted it and it still is a duplex. If you want to get coverage and dropped then this is the company for you!
