Glad this was posted... I never even thought about it. I have 5 cars insured... I'm going to call them tomorrow & drop collision & the liability coverage's down to the State min on all but the 1 we are using for trips to the store. I'll put them back when it's all over... Especially now that cops are using window tint as an excuse to pull you over and then give you a Quarantine violation ticket in this area.

This makes absolutely no sense at all. I get the bit about stay at home means greatly reduced traffic resulting in a drop in accidents and therefor claims. In my mind that sounds like record profits for the insurance companies and since when do they have a heart? A thing happening else where in the insurance industry that shouldn't surprise: The underwriters in the travel insurance industry are circling the wagons and refusing to pay claims for insured trips that have been impacted by the travel bans, quarantines and general panic. The standard position is that global pandemics are not specifically listed as covered events in the policies. https://www.squaremouth.com/current...s-outbreak-provider-position-statements/I only know this because it's looking like it's gonna cost me $2300 for non refundable payments toward the trip we had planned for next month that I insured against things like hurricanes, volcano, wars, terrorism, bankruptcy, civil uprisings. Ya know, the usual foreseeable unforeseen things.

This makes absolutely no sense at all. It makes total sense. Claim frequency and severity has plummeted. I can't disclose our company's result, but we're the #3 carrier in the US, and I can tell you that claim volume relative to policies in force is historically low. Money is still coming in, but not much is going out. The most valuable customer an insurer has is a current customer. Refunding premiums as a goodwill gesture will absolutely generate goodwill and reduce the chances of an existing customer shopping around. Also, the rates we pay are based on underwriting data that cannot and did not account for the current situation. As a result, everyone is overpaying a bit. One other thing...the carriers who were already very profitable (most notably, my employer) are very likely going to cut rates in the next few months in an attempt to take business away from the competition. State Farm is terrified right now, as they have been bleeding market share for years, and they are terrible at underwriting, but the are going to have to give premium refunds anyway, and they know that even though they are going to do it, Geico and us are going to come after their customers harder than ever, and they can't stop it.

state farm just reduced my house insurance by 60 bucks a month Not because of what's going on right now, though. SF's in decent shape with regard to expenses, so rate cuts are their last ditch effort to fight back against their eroding market share. It won't work long-term, though. They are too set in their ways. They have a culture problem. They're not about to become good at underwriting, and they're not about to become good at earning new business. They suck at both of those things.

"Liberty Mutual Insurance today announced its Personal Auto Customer Relief Refund, which gives personal auto insurance customers a 15% refund on two months of their annual premium."
woo hoo....$48. I'll take it gladly, but not really that much considering what they charge without any claims.

I'm not impressed.

I'm not impressed. They move at the speed of molasses. In fact, during the whole COVID-19 thing, they've had to lay people off (with pay, which is admirable) because they lacked the technology, infrastructure, and know-how to create the ability to work virtually on a large scale. Some of their folks who SF did manage to get set up virtually have limited capability, too. Meanwhile, our company went from our usual 6,000 member virtual workforce (including me), to having over 40,000 people working virtually, in the span of 3 weeks. That includes acquiring and configuring the necessary hardware, changing our IT capacity (networks, VPN, etc) to handle the increase, etc. 34,000 additional people in 3 weeks. Just one more example of how they went from 34% of the market to 16%, with no end to the decline in sight.

I have aaa. Have not heard anything yet.. I got my "you must have road service card" bill at $54.00 never used it, I add it into the price of insurance..For some reason it comes in a month before the insurance bill. I'm not paying it until I get the insurance bill this time.. If it goes up again, Time to switch, its been 5 years. Now I have all the time in the world to find my best deal. Kevin

I keep telling my daughter to get in the insurance profession..Such a lucrative business.
How can Allstate give back hundreds of millions and not say the premiums are too high?
What a racket..
