I purchased a policy for renters insurance. I then lost my job so had to cancel. I called in and spoke to a representative for 25 minutes and was assured I'd be MAILED A CHECK because my bank account on file had closed. That was May 10th and I still have no refund plus every time I call am told different misleading information. Almost been a month.Business Response

I am rejecting this, it's the same genetic response, I've attempted contact with agent directly, online chat, direct phone numbers with automation that's impossible to navigate. Attempted to speak with a lady name ***** who i returned call to after filing online complaint who felt she could over talk me and expect me to take it. Doesn't work that way, been dealing with this problem since before 21 April, allstate isn't a company with very good customer service nor can they explain why their underwriting told **** ****** agent from ***** ******* agency that I had a claim filed 3, 21, 25, but yet no one can give me anymore information concerning this mysterious claim.Initial Complaint

I have an Allstate HomeOwner's Policy that includes coverage for wind/hail damage to the roof my insured property, that is also my permanent residence. I submitted claim for hail damage on 04/13/2025. After the adjuster came to inspect my roof, the estimate I received reflects the majority for the cost of repairs to be on myself as Allstate aged my roof to 24 YEARS OLD. I disagreed with this age and had my roof appropriately inspected. The inspected gave his report that stated my roof is 9 YEARS OLD. I submitted this documentation to Allstate via email requesting that they update my policy to reflect the correct age on MAY 9 2025. As of today, 05/22/2025, Allstate has not updated the age of my roof. On MAY *******, via chat, I submitted a compliant with Allstate through their website. I have been contacted by a representative to resolve complaint. However, here remains no resolution. In fact, after I received contact from this representative about my compliant and the start to an investigation on my compliant, I received an Amended Declaration Page this morning, 05/25/2025, that continued to have my roof aged as 24 years old. Also Allstate placed in the Declaration Page that I have one extra large concrete pool. Allstate continues to delay correcting these inaccuracies that delays necessary repairs that my roof needs and indicating that I have a pool which is completely incorrect.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:Allstate continues to be neglient in resolving my issue. Allstate continues to hide behind blaming other departments within their company. I have followed through on their internal requests with no resolution on their end. They continue to delay repairs my roof needs.

I took out an automobile policy with Allstate Insurance effective April 4, 2025, on a 2014 ***** Impala. On April 24, 2025, I sold this vehicle and went into my Allstate online account to cancel this policy to be effective 4/25/25. It failed to allow me to cancel and took me to an online chat agent, who was also unable to cancel due to a "technical error." She asked me to call back on Monday, which I did. Needless to say, I have made 6 phone calls to Allstate to cancel this policy, and they are stonewalling my efforts due to a "technical error." Today I have a ************************************** person on email asking me to PROVE I sold the car. *** does this have to do with anything? I want the policy CANCELLED effective 4/25/25, which I did promptly attempt to do myself on my Allstate Online Account after selling my car over the weekend. All I want is for them to cancel my policy. I HAVE NOT MADE ANY ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS ON THE POLICY, NOR WILL I, SINCE I DO NOT OWN THIS VEHICLE, SO I GUESS THEY WILL EVENTUALLY HAVE TO CANCEL THE POLICY.Business Response

I had wind damage to my roof. I had three different roofing companies look at my roof and said it needed to be replaced. But my insurance company said it needed to be repaired so I called up the roofers and told them what they said. The roofer said my roof is so old that when they try to lift the shingles up to put new shingles under there they just break off and at my roof needs to be replaced. So I called my adjuster back and told her that, then she told me that it was tree damage not wind damage and it wasn't covered. But I don't have trees at my house and she's just trying to deny my claim. I sent her pictures of the side of my house where all the damage is to show her I have no trees and since then she will not answer my phone calls nor will she returned my calls she had asked for more pictures to be sent and I sent more to both of her emails and still no reply. All I want from them is to honor my insurance policy and fix my damaged roof minus my deductible. I knew as soon as I heard her fabricate tree damage that this was not an honest business transaction.Business Response

Dear Allstate,I am a single parent of two young children and recently started a new job. Due to a three-week delay in receiving my first paycheck, I had to temporarily remove my account from *******. It was my full intention to make my May 1st payment this Thursday, May 22.However, when I attempted to make the payment, I was surprised to see that my balance had increased to over $1,200. I reached out via live chat yesterday but was unable to get a clear resolution. I also spoke with a customer service representative by phone, who informed me that the balance was due to a California regulation requiring a two-month down payment, which was not clearly explained to me and does not align with my understanding.I was transferred to a specialty representative who was beginning to assist me, but unfortunately, the call was disconnected and I did not receive a follow-up call.I am requesting to:Make my May 1st payment in full this Thursday, May 22 Resume AutoPay starting with my June 1st payment I am doing everything I can to stay current and responsible with my payments, and I would sincerely appreciate any flexibility or assistance you can provide to help me stay on track.Thank you for your understanding and support during this transitional time. I look forward to resolving this as soon as possible.Sincerely,****** ******* ********* ************ *********************Business Response

On February 11, 2025 I purchased home owners insurance through Allstate Insurance and received a letter on March 29, 2025 stating that my mortgage company has not made my payment from my escrow account. I contacted my mortgage company and did a 3 way call with Allstate to get the over night address to send them the payment. The *** at Allstate gave my mortgage company the incorrect address. My mortgage company put a stop payment on the check and had to wait for the stop payment to clear before issuing another check. While waiting for the stop payment to clear, I had to make the payment of $2,763.34 myself so the policy wouldn't cancel. I made the payment on April 17, 2025 and the mortgage company sent another check to the correct address and Allstate still has not issued me a refund check. Every time I call to find out where my refund is, I am told different stories by different ***s. ** of today, May 19, 2025, I still do not have my refund of $2,763.34Business Response

For over a year now you [Allstate, Allstate Systems, Allstate Personnel] failed to report my policy to ***** Nexis (fyi thats 2 renewals) and its very unacceptable, especially in the world of insurance. Itll take 7-10 business days to fix and I have to renew by Monday 5/25. As a result, Im being quoted by now 4 companies upwards of $800/month (yes you read that right)! Allstate you all created the false image that I dont want to carry auto coverage, and that I enjoy lapses of coverage which is inexcusable. I am now at a loss and you dont care. The icing on the cake? State Farm alerted me of this - not you [Allstate] On top of it all, every licensing specialist I talked to, especially ******, was unhelpful and only tried to justify your egregious 12 month oversight. I even tried to painstakingly renew with Allstate and asked for an adjustment to the premium given your failure of duty to report, which has now put me in a very difficult place, and she [******] legit said, we cant help you and dont do that [wont help you] - WE DONT OWN OUR MISTAKES. The lack of oversight (ever heard of systems accuracy audits?!), outdated systems [****** blamed it on your system & never just owned it], and the failure of you to help the customer has lost me. Ive never experienced this by any insurer.Business Response

I received a cancelation notice due June 1st (I'm only 2 weeks behind) I got in touch with them today regarding my past due payment and let them know I've had medical emergencies and could they please extend it to June 6th when I get paid again, only 5 days longer from the due date and they refused to grant it and they cancelation will proceed.
