      On July 23, 2022 I filed a claim with Liberty Mutual after someone sideswiped the rear passenger side of my car while trying to pass me on a narrow street causing my car to hit on a median. I gave them my police report number then the claim person ******** said that I have to show them proof of the accident so I gave them the tow receipt. Now they are saying because my policy is new a special investigation has to be done and I cannot get rental car service. I have been paying out of pocket for rental service.

      This company still won't provide a detailed billing schedule as requested. They continually won't return phone calls nor do they process the correct transaction dates for services costing customers thousands of dollars and extensive amount of time. I cancelled a policy on 7/2/22 and they wrongfully changed the date to 4/18/22 causing suspension/revocation of licenses and registration. I have called over ten times to correct these problems, even speaking to the executive offices, and nothing is changed and more errors keep occurring. I want a phone call from an executive representation and correction to the problem they caused. They doubled billed me for 7 months through automatic payment and still no refund.

      I have had insurance coverage for home and auto with this company with my husband ************************* III for 5 years. I've always been on time with payments and have only claimed a Crack windshield 3 or so years ago. I recently had a barn taken down and when I told this company they said my insurance would increase $70. When asked for an explanation they said it's just how we calculate it. We then stated one less building to be insured should lower the interest rate yet no one could explain why it increased. We then looked elsewhere for insurance. On July 10th this company took $287.50 for home insurance. We then notified them of the company change which took place 7/18/22. I now have a **** for $150.00 for house insurance and ****** for car insurance. When they were questioned about that they claimed its back pay we owe which we absolutely do not since I've made ever single payment asked of me. Including one for July when we no longer even have a policy with them. When we called and questioned it they said our policy increased when we renewed this year (which we were never informed of until we canceled) but because we were in good standing they didn't inform us or change our monthly payments. My husband then asked them when they were planning on notifying us if we had not canceled and the employee could not answer the question. Even the new insurance company was under the impression we would recieve something back from our recent payment. Any time we try to talk to management the only answer we get is basically because I said so and they try to sell us new insurance.

The company is refusing to refund or waive any money at all and added on that they will send this to a creditor. They also contacted my husband instead of myself who filled the claim. They also claim they mailed a package which even if they did I never received and this was never explained to us over the numerous phone calls we have made in regards to our momthly payments. They also claim that due to the date WE have chosen to have our account charged we didn't make a payment until February for this year. This was a date that was put in place for us, not one we chose. If we knew it would cause a lapse in payment we certainly would not have chosen it.

      I want to file a complaint on liberty mutual insurance company. I was in a car accident on April 23, 2022 with one of their clients who has insurance through liberty mutual. I was able to get the clients information, and I called liberty mutual the same day to let them know what happened, and have their insurance company pay for the damages. A couple of days later I was received a phone call from one of there claim agents ***********************, she said she would be able to assist me in getting the damages fixed on my car. I gave her a full description of the accident, sent her pictures as well as a witness contact information. She told me that it would be taken care of everything. She gave me her phone number, email, to check in and receive updates about my claim. A couple of weeks went by I called for an update there was no answer, I sent a text there was no answer. I would contact her every other weekend for any update regarding my claim there was no answer. The first week in July I called again, and I received a message over the phone saying my claim was closed June 10. I was furious because from April 23, 2022 up until now, I still have damages on my car, and how can you close a claim on someone without contacting them. I am upset, *********************** has poor customer service, I don't want to speak to her ever again. I am reaching out because I need help on fixing this situation.

      I had homeowners and auto insurance through Liberty Mutual on our home in *****. We cancelled our auto policy in October 2020 and cancelled our homeowners policy when we sold our home in December 2020. I just received notification of a renewal of our umbrella policy, which should have been cancelled at the time we cancelled our homeowners policy (there was not an auto or homeowners policy in effect anymore). When I called Liberty Mutual, they would only cancel and refund back to June 2021. I don't believe we should have been charged for an umbrella policy that shouldn't have been active in the first place. I would like a full refund of the premiums collected plus additional interest, due to the fact that I believe Liberty Mutual took advantage of the situation, and wouldn't even consider providing a full refund.

      My vehicle was stolen and recovered and placed in a tow yard. The insurance company asked the car be towed so they could inspect it further. Due to liberty mutual insurance agents being on vacation etc my car has been in tow for over 2 weeks incuring heavy fees to get it out. Now they have closed the claim and I have lost my job due to them refusing rental vehicles and taking there precious time getting me my car back. Now the tow lot cannot release my car without tow fee's paid and insurance company will not respond to me at all. I need my car back as I have disabled children and about to lose my house due to losing my job since I have not had any transportation in weeks. My cars tow fee's get higher everyday and I am being ignored by what people call a reputable company.

      On 7-21-2022 I went on the liberty mutual site to change the date on my auto policy I have auto pay. $110. Is withdrawn from my checking account on the 27th of every month. I wanted my payments changed to the 4th of the months. When I saw how much more $40, I wanted to change it back. Nowhere does it state that your payment will go up or you cant go back. I spoke with 2 agents an they were of no help,they said to pay $122 for all other payments. What sense do that make.,if I wanted to change the payment to a later date, because of the money,how can I pay more on the same date that I was trying to get away from. This complaint is for false representation an agents who cant handle what you are selling. Ive been with Liberty Mutual far too long to get this treatment. The site also said that I had tried to change a date before. Never this was my 1st time. I also have house insurance with this company.
