State Farm doubled my car insurance in 18 months time, while I have filed no claims ever. I guess either rip off or I am forced to pay for other drivers.

This is when you seek out another insurance agency unless you get a satisfactory answer from your agent. Age and the type of car you drive could be an issue, but I suspect a data entry error for a doubling of rates in such a short time...

Raising rates is how they reward what you call “loyalty.” Same as cable, cell phone. They see you as stupid for not shopping around.

I have minimal auto insurance & yet the premium seems rather high. They advertise reduced rates all the time online b& TV with all kinds of deals, but my agent says to forget those ads; they are meaningless. I don’t get it. This is State Farm.
