      I have an auto policy with the company. I was laid off December 2024. Initially my auto insurance payment were withdrawn directly from my payroll. When I was put on severance package I was under the impression that the insurance payment would still be withdrawn from my severance pay until I received a notification from liberty mutual that my policy was going to be cancelled on 3/15 if payment not receive. On 3/11 on liberty app I made payment for $451.32 which was the balance showing due. On 3/13 I went back in app and showed a new past due *** past due of $451.32 so I made a second payment for that amount. On 3/14 I checked the app again and didnt show any balance due. I went in app on 4/20 and showed that I had a ***** past due and policy was pending cancellation request to call customer service. I called ********************** and was told that that balance was part of the total that was due before 3/15 to avoid the policy being cancelled. The *** and supervisor I talked to could not explain why the liberty app didnt quote the ***** as part of the balance that was due prior but because it wasnt paid my policy was canceled and they couldnt reinstatement. I asked why the app said the policy was pending cancellation and to call them and why the app didnt quote the correct amount due at the time I made the payments and they couldnt give me an answer. The app did not allowed payment amounts to be altered. I was only able to make payments for what it was asking me for. They told me I they couldnt do anything about this and that I would need to start a new auto policy, have to pay more money cause they cant give me the same quote from before, and that because my policy was cancelled for not paying that I would have to pay for a full year upfront to get coverage and wouldnt qualify for monthly payments which I said I cant pay full year as I was laid off. My initial policy was schedule to expire 7/23/2025, told the policy couldnt be made to cover me for less than a yr.

      Ive been insured with ****** for many years and never filed a claim until five years ago, when a windstorm damaged my roof. Despite the clear damage, my claim was denied. Two years ago, a hailstorm caused further damage, and again, my claim was denied. Ive continued to pay out of pocket to repair my roof. Most recently, another windstorm caused significant damage, and yet again, ****** denied my ******** this point, Im extremely frustrated. Ive been consistently paying for insurance coverage, but when Ive genuinely needed support, Ive received nothing in return. It makes me question the value and purpose of having insurance at all. It feels like ****** is failing its clients, and this pattern of denial needs to be addressed. My roof still requires repairs, and I believe its time for accountability.

      I called liberty mutual to set up a renters insurance policy. I was at first very happy with the price of the policy so I purchased it using my debit card. during the entire phone call I was never once informed that if I used a debit card, I would be charged an installment fee that almost doubled my policy each month. And so the next month I was charged $21 on a normally $12 premium when I called them to ask them why. they said that if I used a checking account I would only be charged a two dollar installment fee, but that was never relayed to me during the policy set up process. I asked them if anything could be done about this first month since I didnt think it was fair that I did not know about this policy and that I was just fine with the charges moving forward and that I would just switch to a checking account. They told me that there was nothing that could be done because the payment was already processed. Even during the initial set up process, I paid with my debit card and that first payment was only $12. So there was no way that I couldve known that there was a installment fee starting the next month.

      I have called the *********************** number on 3/31/2025 about a claim check from 2006. The ****** **************** employee was very helpful and found the check Number ******* for the amount of $1,597.42 dated Jan 23, 2006. The ****** **************** employee canceled the above listed check and stated that she would have the check reissued to me in 10 business days. She also told me that she placed all the communications between me and her in some department called "CVO". I have called today, April 18, 2025, and tried to communicate this information to ****** **************** representatives but they didn't know what I was talking about in "CVO". So, it seems that not everyone knows about the **************** for an older claim check. The ****** **************** employee that helped me on 3/31/2025 went out or her way to find the claim, get the claim check cancelled, and get a new claim check issued. But it seems not everyone that works for ****** **************** takes the time to help customers with their issues. I have attached a copy of the claim check #*******, dated Jan 23, 2006, and a copy of my policy letter showing that I was a Safeco customer in 2006. Now, I feel that ****** **************** just doesn't care about their customers and just want their customers to never contact ****** **************** unless you just want to pay your insurance bills, but never take care of real customer issues.

      I had State Auto for my home owners insurance since 2020. I have hail damage that occurred during the last year. They are denying my claim. The roofing company I'm working with said they have had other insurance companies cover much more minor damage than I have. This is an issue where the insurance company just doesn't want to do the right thing.

      I paid my insurance in full in December and no payment was *** until June 2025. For the last Eight years I have had no break insurance. On April 15th I received check in the mail for ****** stating it was a refund per my request for cancellation of insurance. I called ****** to state I did not request a cancellation of my insurance. They stated that I had a payment of *****. that I did not pay. I dispute that because I paid in full at the time of renewal. ****** offered to put a stop payment on the check and charge me an additional ****** dollars for reinstatement for $***** additional charge I knew nothing about. I paid in full when I purchased my insurance for six months. I feel scammed, not only that I have a lapse insurance on my record which is going to cause a hardship. I have not had a lapse insurance for eight years.
