      Im filing a formal complaint against Sentry Insurance DBA Dairyland Insurance and Mideast Appraisal regarding claim ********** and reporting suspected fraud by both, involving misrepresentations, intentional delays, and fraudulent documents. Nearly two years after my motorcycle was stolen, Dairyland has failed to pay fair value, despite clear evidence from my independent appraiser.Dairyland falsely claimed they consulted **** ***** a military vehicle expert and owner of Westwall Militaria in ************ **, who supposedly supported their low valuation. When I contacted Mr. ***** he confirmed Dairyland misrepresented his statements and told them not to use him as a reference. He is willing to testify to this.Dairylands comparable sales were junk civilian bikes, ignoring my motorcycles rare military history. Ultimately, they paid only $3,000 for a motorcycle appraised at $18,000a value supported by a recent **** sale for the exact model.Early on, adjuster ****** ****** subjected me to a hostile call before launching a baseless, retaliatory investigation falsely implying I staged the theftdelaying the claim for months. Dairyland promised fair review if I hired my own appraiser. I hired ******* ****** of The Veterans Garage, who submitted a professional appraisal with valid comps.Instead of honoring that, Dairyland inserted their own appraiser, ***** ***** of Mideast Appraisal, who has delayed, obstructed, and ignored ******** work entirely. Dairyland and ***** now rely on a fraudulent bill of sale from the sellerwho blocked me after the theft and cut off contact. Dairyland refuses to give me this document while ignoring the legitimate bill of sale I gave them.This is a clear pattern of bad faith, deception, and obstruction. I request immediate BBB intervention and have also reported this to the Nevada Division of Insurance and the **** I can provide emails, recordings, appraisals, and sworn statements to prove every fact stated here.

      Better Business Bureau:

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.

      Sentry Insurance continues to submit the exact same canned response without addressing any of the core issues of my complaint. Simply stating that they feel this matter is resolved is not a resolutionit is a deliberate attempt to stall and avoid accountability for their fraudulent and deceptive actions.


      I formally reject their response again. Sentry Insurance has:
      Failed to provide fair compensation for my stolen property in a timely manner.
      Deliberately used fraudulent documentation to justify an underpayment.
      Wasted nearly two years of my time through bad-***** ******** tactics.
      Forced me to endure months of harassment, scrutiny, and unnecessary stress due to their false accusations and deceptive claim handling.


      At this point, I am not only demanding the full and fair value of my claimI am also demanding compensation for the time, effort, and emotional distress caused by Sentry Insurances continued misconduct. Their fraudulent practices and failure to resolve this matter in good faith have directly caused me financial and personal harm.


      Since Sentry Insurance refuses to take responsibility, I have already escalated this to the Nevada Attorney General and will continue to take further action if they do not provide a real resolution. If they think ignoring me will make me go away, they are mistaken.


      This complaint is not resolved, and I request that the BBB keep this complaint open until Sentry Insurance provides a real offer that fully compensates me for both my loss and the damages caused by their bad-faith conduct. If they continue to copy-paste the same response, I will treat it as further evidence of their refusal to engage in a legitimate resolution and will continue to escalate this matter.


      I expect a serious response and a legitimate compensation offernot another dismissive excuse.

      This is yet another pathetic attempt by Sentry Insurance to deflect responsibility and avoid addressing their fraudulent actions. They continue to ignore the facts, dodge accountability, and waste my time with copy-paste responses instead of providing a real resolution.


      I reject their response again. This complaint is not resolved and will remain open until they compensate me for both my stolen property and the months of delays, deception, and bad-faith tactics they have used to stall this process.


      If they refuse to handle this properly, I will escalate this further, including legal action.

      Hortica a sentry brand has performed multiple bait and switches causing me to lose thousands of dollars in overbilling and lack of ability to perform duties based on the agreement. I have been threatened for issues that were not issues prior to ending business with this company. They have chosen to threaten their customers in attempts to keep them instead of just offering a superior product and standing by it.

      Sentry insurance fails to represent their customers in good faith. I was involved in an accident in which the other driver ran a red light. They assured me they would go to arbitration if need be. They never did and accepted liability. They never notified me, they refused to give reasoning as to why. Then upon my final payment, once paid, decided they needed to get more money and say I owe them. I do not owe them anything and I did not approve to have a bill increase. Legal action needs to be taken. This company doesnt do what it gets monthly premiums for. They act in bad faith intentionally. Lie and blatantly ignore facts and statutes that back certain aspects of an incident. This company needs to be put on a cease and desist and have a fraud case opened.

      This company owns dairyland insurance and that company is trying to scam me by creating a false balance of 1067$. I bought car insurance from them in 2024 and i paid it fully. and the end of my policy was in the time of the hurricane in ******* which was september 2024. So i called them about renewal to change my deductibles to see the new price and they said they are unable to offer me a new policy because the company paused it because of the incoming hurricane and said if i didnt make a new payment my policy wouldnt be renewed anyway. So i made a deal with another insurance company. After months they are sending me mails saying i have a balance of 1067$ which occured after the end of my policy when they were saying they were unable to provide me a new policy because of the hurricane. They cant just continue my policy after saying that not informing me and also saying if i dont make a new payment it would be terminated anyway. This is literal scamming. I hope you guys can do something about this otherwise im gonna have to go to authorities. Thanks for your time

      Had a vehicle wreck and the other person was at fault for running a stop sign and ran into the side of my vehicle and shoved me into a pole. Very extensive damage to my vehicle and the sentry insurance has stalled for 3 weeks into getting me a rental vehicle and progressing to get my vehicle looked at and get fixed.

      Had an accident and their insured customer was at fault. ********************************************* collected all documents, all statements, and their adjuster ******* ******* has stated they already have an estimate for damages ready but has not paid out for the damages yet. I have contacted them multiple times and they keep prolonging the process without any actual explanation or reason. As of today it has been over a month since the last time I've had any contact with them or any information regarding my claim. My car needs to be repaired.

    BBB Business Profiles may not be reproduced for sales or promotional purposes.

    BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
