I've got a quote from MetLife on my home and cars and i really like the

price. Does anyone have any experience with Metlife?

Good or bad? Do they pay well with little hassle? Not planning any claims,

I've only had 3 claims in 25 years. I know Safeco is a good company, but I'm

not real happy with the big increase

Opinions?

We had our farm, house, and cars insured with State Farm for years. Then they sent us a letter saying that they weren't insuring farms in Maryland anymore. I sent a reply suggesting that they change their name to State No Farm but never heard back on that. We went with Brethren Mutual after shopping around a bit but I don't know if they're in your area. Google around for a home insurance comparison website or ask your neighbors who they use.

Out of all the insurance companies I called, the State Farm agent was
the rudest.

The guy came out, sneered at me and said he was not going to insure the
house because it was not kept up properly. I never put off repairs but
what got him irked was my natural yard...which was is OK with the city here.


The only other insurance company I'm going to mention is Travelers Ins.
The company I worked for used them and I had to sue them over a sprained
muscle I got at work. The *entire* bill was $400 but their cost to fight
it was probably thousands, they put two lawyers on it
but settled in court for the full amount.
