"I am amazed that they remain in business to be honest, although I suppose they have excellent professional liability and errors & omissions insurance. During my time in Athens, I had two claims: one on my house and one on my car. Any time I called this office for questions, I was flabbergasted. At best, my questions were answered with, "I don't know" when they should have been answered with "I don't know but let me find out for you." At worst, my questions were answered agreeing with whatever I stated, even when incorrect. Even if you suggest conflicting questions such as, "If a car side-swiped me out of the parking lot, that car would be liable right?" Them: "Mmmhmm, definitely!" followed by "I was probably parked over the yellow parking lines, making me liable, right?" Them: "That makes sense!" This State Farm agency is the only one I have experience with from my time living in Georgia. They are not the only insurance agency I have experience with otherwise. My grandparents actually owned an insurance brokerage that had been in the family for over 100 years old when they finally decided to close it. I always witnessed our agents and staff either answering questions (with an understanding of policy terms, liability, etc.) or taking down contact information to return the call once they found out the answer. Bottom line: don't bother asking questions of this agency. They will either lie or, if you're lucky, state that they don't know the answer (and can't be bothered to do any homework)."
We responded:
"Dear Jane Doe, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are genuinely surprised and concerned by your experience, as it is not at all reflective of the service standards our team upholds. We take great pride in our commitment to honesty, accuracy, and going the extra mile to support our customers—especially when it comes to navigating the often complex claims process. While we acknowledge that we may not always have immediate answers to every question, it is always our practice to either find the correct information or connect clients with the appropriate claims specialists with State Farm Corporate. I personally know our team members well, including the colleague dedicated to conversations on claims, and I find it hard to believe that anyone here would knowingly provide misleading information or dismiss a customer’s concerns. That said, your feedback is important to us, and I would appreciate the chance to learn more about your interactions so we can address any gaps and ensure this does not happen. I hope you're open to discussing this further, please feel free to reach out to me directly at 706-543-8400. Thank you again for your comments and for giving us the opportunity to improve. Sincerely, Shane Dekle State Farm Agent "

"Got cold called by their rep John Kinnison. He was pleasant and provided a quote for coverages, but spent way too much time on the phone and asked too many personal questions, I thought I was getting scammed. Then, when I confirmed it was not in fact a scam, I asked for an email follow up. I replied to the email with some questions and never got a reply. EDIT: Got a reply after posting this review, so bumping rating up to 3 stars."
We responded:
"Hi Laura, we're sorry you had a bad experience with our office. We pride ourselves on responding to customers in a timely manner. Not responding to your email is not acceptable and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. Our job is to help protect customer's income, assets and their families through insurance and financial products. We do ask personal questions in order to determine appropriate coverages for each customer. Many places will simply give you a quote without fully understanding what you have to lose or to protect and that can be catastrophic for people if they are involved in bad accidents without the right coverage in place. We understand this how this could be alarming and apologize if we didn't explain why personal questions are needed and how we use the information in order to make the best coverage recommendations. Again, we sincerely apologize for your experience. "
