On 08/12/2022, *********************** at Allstate quoted me $580.70 per 6 months for insurance for my two autos. I accepted the quote and asked if I could pay with my credit card, which she said the deal was based on me paying with my checking account routing number, so I provided her with my checking routing and account number to pay the invoice. Upon payment ***** contacted my current Insurance company and CANCELED my current policy. I was then emailed confirmation of my new insurance with Allstate and a link to my printable insurance cards. Figuring everything was fine, I went about my business for a whole week. Then on 08/23/2022, I receive a disturbing phone call from ***** that my policy had been canceled for non-payment, which we found out was because the check routing/account number was entered wrong. I said fine, then lets try it again, which she then informed me that they had a price increase and now my policy would cost 748 dollars not the 580 dollars quoted. Knowing that ***** had already put into effect a cancelation of my old policy, I felt forced to accept the new rate because I was now uninsured. For my resolution, I would like for Allstate to honor their original quote and refund me the difference that I already paid. Also, I found documentation on the Internet that Allstate offers a 30 day grace ****** for late payments and they canceled my policy after just 7 days without notice.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:Based on Allstates said final response received 09/12/22 theyve claimed they have addressed all concerns presented. Im rejecting this response by Allstate,because this was not an issue of matter of concern but was an issue of malice intending to defraud me by canceling my signed contract so they could rewrite it at a higher premium, which they did.

I experienced an issue with a refurbished laptop insured by SquareTrade that required me to send it in. I was told by the representative over the phone before doing so that it would either be repaired or replaced. Eventually I received an update that neither of these things were possible and that I would be refunded (I was not even offered the option to take back the malfunctioning computer). This secret third option excluded the tax, $213.56 that was paid to purchase this item. I complained, given that I was not even told this "refund" was a possibility before sending the item in, and eventually an alleged supervisor told me that an exception would be made and I would be sent an additional check for this amount. The check never arrived. I am still hoping to resolve this issue by being paid the money I feel I was tricked out of, then promised, and still never received. If it's possible I would also appreciate additional compensation of some sort for the huge amount of time I've wasted dealing with this situation, although I am aware that is a long shot.Details:Item: "Razer Blade 15 Advanced Gaming Laptop OLED 4K Touch 60Hz GeForce RTX **** Black" purchased on **** Purchase date: March 11th, 2022 (purchased as a gift for me if that's relevant)Cost: $2,247.99 (now reimbursed) before tax, $213.56 tax, $2,461.55 total Original Order Number: ************ AllState Claim ID: ************ I can look into more details if anything comes of this.Other Notes:I recorded my conversation with the supervisor who agreed to pay the remaining money. Their end is garbled, perhaps intentionally, but could be useful. I won't include that yet unless requested.Please let me know if there's any chance of resolving this and what else might be needed from me. Thanks!Business Response

I filed a not at fault claim on 5/26/22, my car was parked and was hit by an uninsured driver. I took my vehicle to be repaired at a repair shop in Allstate's network on 6/24/22. I was told by the shop that my vehicle repairs should be done around 7/19/22. On 6/30/22 I was informed that my completion date was pushed back until 7/21/22. I got 3 confirmations that my vehicle was on track to be completed on 7/21/22. On 7/16/22 I received notice that my completion date was pushed backed again until 8/4/22. This has be ongoing since, every time I near my completion date it changes. I've been paying out of pocket for my rental car since 7/23/22. I've contacted my insurance company to ask for an extension on my rental and was told that they were unable to extended it. I've ask what could be added to my policy to prevent this from happening in the future and was disconnected. No one called back. So now, I'm not out of over $1,000.00 in out of pocket expenses for the rental (not to mention I still have a $250.00 deductible). I no longer have a completed by date. The last date I was given was 8/26/22 and that was cancelled. I was told by Allstate that there is nothing that they can do about this. I feel like I did everything right but still ended up screwed. 1. Purchased insurance. 2. Drove safely. 3. Made every payment on time. 4. Reported the accident the same day it occurred. 5. Submitted all the information I was able to find on the uninsured driver. I understand that parts were on back order but this is extreme.Business Response

I have a home/auto policy with Allstate (AS). I was at fault in an accident in January 2022 while giving an Uber ride which I do to supplement my income. It was a minor accident but the car needed expensive body repair. I did have a "rideshare endorsement" which allows me to use my vehicle for Uber. I wasn't really aware what this entailed. I believed Allstate would cover any Uber wrecks. The adjuster at Allstate was also confused, as was the Progressive (PG) adjuster which is Uber's insurance. Claims of this kind are very rare as both adjusters explained to me.Finally, it was explained Progressive would pay with a **** deductible and Allstate would cover the difference between that and my policy. They cut me a check pretty fast which I was grateful for. AS also sent the authorization for rental car to Enterprise (EP).Everything was fine until 30 days ran up and still no parts for the car. EP called me and said AS hadn't extended the car yet but they would if the car was still in the shop... so just keep it for now. About a week later, AS contacted EP and said no extension for the car which had already extended beyond the ****************************** and said I have to pay for every day over 30 (which I did). This because AS only authorized 30 days. Upset at this, I contacted the adjuster who said then that no, I am not authorized ANY rental reimbursement (which I have had on my policy since inception.)I have taken several screenshots here logged into my online account where the claim is still open and the transportation expense of "$30/day, 30-day limit" is still listed. Even to this day! I told *************************** (my local agent) she and several of her agents have told me that she would look into it and get back to me. I never heard from her about the situation again. Meanwhile, EP has decided since AS will not pay the bill, they'll send it to me. They want me to pay for the initial 30 days that AS authorized (over $1000). Why?Business Response

I started with Allstate insurance on 3/30/22 and it was set to go through 9/30/22. On 8/4/22 I made a payment and then again on 8/19/22. When I made the payment on 8/19 I noticed it said my policy was cancelled on 8/4. I never received an email, phone call, or mail stating my policy would be cancelled. When I made the payment on 8/4, even the app didnt say pending cancellation or anything. On 8/19 I was told that in ***** hours my policy would be reinstated after the bill had processed. On 8/21 the bill was processed but policy still terminated. I spoke to another agent who told me I had to call a number and ask for a supervisor. I called that number and was told that it takes 24 hours for a supervisor. On 8/23 I waited 48 hours and called to talk to a supervisor. I was transferred to multiple departments as nobody knew how to help me. End result was that even though my bill was caught up because Im not a member for 10 years I couldnt reinstate my policy and would need to purchase a new policy. Yet my policy was caught up through September. I want them to either reinstate my policy or refund my last month. It was a complete run around show and false information the whole time. And yet never once was I able to speak to a supervisor!!!Business Response

Our home insurance company is Allstate (***************, **). On April 26, 2022, our community in **********, **, experienced a severe hail and wind storm. We live in a very small cul-de-sac of 11 homes. Three homes had their roofs redone only days before the storm. Of the 8 remaining who submitted claims for damage to their shingles from hail, 7 were approved for full coverage (none of these were insured by Allstate!) Allstate repeatedly denied our claim, saying that the photos showed only blistering from age. Our townhome actually shares a roof with two of the homes that have been fully approved by their insurance company for their claims. We request that Allstate fully pay for our roof. Our claim number is **********, and there should be substantial photo evidence attached to the claim, as well as the bill from the roofing company. I attached only one sample of photos.Business Response
