      They will not stop calling every day, from 8am to 7pm. They also call from fake numbers that use your area code. I demand that they stop contacting me or I will pursue criminal charges.

      You are ********* partake in the business of illegally buying and selling contact information. I never and I repeat NEVER contacted you about insurance rates. More importantly I NEVER authorized you to harrass, tie up my phone line and **** me down like a psychopathic maniac stalker. You are a predatory and intrusive company that 100% is criminal, not only due to your illegally accessing unauthorized personal information but your obvious disrespect and disregard for people's privacy and quality of life. Your so-called sales tactics are vicously aggressive and disturbing to the point that you literally cause great harm to the American public and should be shut down. If you ever contact me again, I will personally begin legal proceedings. You are a nuisance company set up to only cause harm. 

      Businesses and Customers should be civil, courteous and polite in their responses to complaints. It is important to remain professional and productive when participating in the BBB complaint process.

      I had already added my phone number to the do not call list and still recieve calls. You are a lying piece of scum and your entire company needs to be shut down. Hopefully your headquarters burns down and you all go to prison.  I hate you and if i get another call I will **** you down.

      I have asked this company to stop contacting me over the past several months. They continue to email me multiple times per day. I have clicked on the unsubscribe button dozens of times. I called their number - nobody answers. This is harassment.

      In the past three weeks, Ive received 42 phone calls and three texts from this company trying to provide insurance quotes to someone Ive never heard of. I cant block them because every call comes from a different Ohio number. On 9/18, I received 17 calls in a nine-hour period. Ive asked to be removed from their list six times so far. No sane person would ever think this is sound business practice.

      While it appears I was erroneously added to their list twice by a consumer that must not know her own phone number, it is still a questionable business model to call someone 17 times in one day and more than 50 times in a month, especially when I did answer multiple of those calls and ask to be added to the Do Not Call list. 

      I genuinely hope this brings an end to this barrage of calls, and I appreciate the company responding.

      I am receiving daily solicitation emails from this company, trying to sell me auto insurance. The emails appear to be sent by different companies--Provide Insurance, Coverage Chaser--but they all appear to connect back to this company. I have called the company to ask to be removed from their email solicitation list. It's impossible to speak to a person. These emails come from suspicious email addresses (for example: *********************************************** I have tried to block these emails, but the email addresses are different each day. I did not sign up for these emails and do not want to receive them!

      "Everquote" whoever the h*** they are...since I've never contacted them in any way....calls my phone number several times a day, and always from a different phone number, so as soon as I block one number they just call from another. It's harassment, it's illegal, and it needs to stop.

      Better Business Bureau:

      Very strange that this response came 3 months after I filed the complaint. Also strange that I have no recall of filing an "online request for insurance quotes"in the past  year, and  that certainly wouldn't justify calling me numerous times a day from different phone numbers. At any rate, the calls have stopped for now so I accept the response.

      This outfit, EverQuote, judging from the torrent of complains about them, is apparently a fraudulent company that scrapes personal data from unauthorized sources in order to harass people with a flood of spam.I have begun to receive multiple texts and phone messages from them and others about auto insurance. I have never communicated or otherwise engaged with EverQuote and of course never will.They need to (i) completely remove my info from their system and (ii) cause every other entity to whom they have provided (sold) my info to do the same. And provide written assurances that they have done so.

      Company has been harassing with calls non stop and texts when I have on several occasions asked NOT to be called and to be taken out of any spam list. That is poor business practice on their part and am glad I decided to not do business with them. Horrible experience!
