No local agents who can shop different policies?
I haven't looked into it yet.

This shouldnt be a surprise. They take a low risk approach when it comes to insuring anything. They wont insure a lot of businesses b/c they are considered higher risk. They will only insure drivers that have a spotless record for the most part as well.
I have had them for the past 16 years with great rates, but since I have been in the autobody world I have come to despise them. Only reason I keep them is because I dont have to play by the rules. I will get a deal no matter what because of what I do. My monthly payment is the only thing that matters.
But State Farm has screwed me over multiple times on other people's repairs and claims in the past. So come Tuesday when I get back to work I am going to inform them that I am looking to change. My family has been with the same State Farm office for 50 years, now on the second agent for the office. I will make it very clear why Im leaving.

I have used those before but I just stick with email or calling my orders in.My work is cancelling Collisionlink but begrudgingly keeping Parts Trader. Collisionlink is charging us for Parts Trader transactions. The only good thing about Parts Trader is it forces shops who want to call in every order to submit their order with all the vehicle information, like VIN, that they don't want to tell me to order parts.
I'm in the same boat. My rates have gotten ridiculous, and my agent closed his doors under suspicious circumstances. I'm not thrilled with the service I've received from my new agent. I'm ready to do some price shopping.
I have had statefarm since 1995 and lately I have had a 10% increase per year on each car. Zero incidents. Time to go insurance shopping.
I forgot for a second that's the name of a sporting good store. I was puzzled for a second. Carry on.I remember pricing them for home owners, they were way above everyone else. Hope they suffer the same fate as dicks.
I wish they never moved to Atlanta, the damn traffic they created by bring 20,000 people here ****ing sucks.

That’s on you though for not following supplement process. Only way I ever release a car is by first having a rep I know who will approve the supplement based on my old part and new invoice vouch for it. Even then it’s a risk.I'll never forgive them for a supplement I did on a customer vehicle. Replaced a $1000 engine part, took photos and sent in the photos and supplement request, finished the vehicle so I could return it to the customer as soon as possible. I kept the part on my desk as not to lose it when/if they came by but at some point in between when I sent the supplement and the month it took them to reply to me saying they were coming out to look over the vehicle, someone had cleaned up and threw the part away. They actually came to my shop and asked where the vehicle was and why it wasn't there, like I was going to make the customer wait a month for them to do their job. They declined my $1500 total supp because I didn't have the car there or the part, and they also didn't like the photos. So I ate the costs on that one.

If you deliver the car before you have approved supplements don’t be surprised when an insurance company doesn’t want to pay it. That’s across the board not limited to State Farm.
