Nationwide Insurance

Honestly I cannot express my disappointment with this company and my insurance representative Emily Barnes. I felt like they had their mind made up about the accident before even looking at the pictures of the cars, which support my side of the story.
Every time I called she wasn’t available EVERY SINGLE TIME! (including 2 minutes ago)
The service was awful and they were NOT AT ALL on my side. You’d think they’d at least pretend.
Of course they’re willing to say it’s my fault because there was barely ANY damage on the car that rear ended me and ultimately they’ll make more money when my insurance goes up.
Also, Statefarm (the other guy’s insurance) was BRUTAL to me. They were like his personal lawyers, while mine sat on their asses and threw in the towel. Bravo state farm, I am DEFINITELY switching to you, even though you acted like my friend and manipulated me into saying things that wound up leading to you blaming me for this man rear ending me. Creepy, awful, but brilliant.
Insurance sucks.
All I know is ANYTHING would be better than Nationwide.

Don’t fall for the Bait and Switch techniques of this company.
I used the on-​line price quote to find out what it would cost to insure my 2^nd home in North Carolina that was just renovated after a tenant was removed.
I was provided a reasonable quote on line.
I called to ask about putting the policy in place.
I was told that Nationwide would not provide coverage unless I cancelled my existing policies my home and purchased TWO policies with Nationwide. Buyer beware.
This type of sales technique is a bait and switch scam. Stay away from this company.

They screw the elderly (95+) with life insurance policies because they can. Threatening them at the end of their life that if they do not come up with thousands of dollars each month their policy will lapse. Do not get a life insurance policy with this corrupt corporation; they are not on your side.

Nationwide has left your side.
They canceled me and other neighbors in Mill Valley, due to concerns about fire risk in Mill Valley, due to the drought. Even though we’d never submitted a claim.
They can advertise being on our side till the cows come home, but they’re full of it!

Customer service is only two words to this company. It has no meaning.
In all fairness and even-​handed review, do not expect returned phone calls, returned emails, or acknowledgement of receiving emails.
They are very argumentative.
I have been with this outfit for nearly a year. I am in the process of leaving them as quickly as possible. It won’t be easy since they have eight policies but, I hope it will be worth it.
I don’t bounce from one company to another as I have been with two other firms over a 34 year period. I have filed an auto claim (innocent driver) and one minor ice damning claim (house) with the previous companies. No claims since 2003.
Buyer beware.

I have been insured with Nationwide for many years and they are the worst. Stay away from these guys. They screw their own policy holders with a vengeance.

Fraudulent business practices in addition to bad service. I cancelled them when I re-​insured with a good company, USAA. Well, the bastards sent me to collection for not paying them $ 67.00 for the month after I had already cancelled them. No warnings. I cancelled in ¹⁰⁄₁₀. They asked for $ 67 in ¹¹⁄₁₀ and I sent them a «certified» letter that I an insured with USAA. Then 1÷13÷10 I am in collection. I am getting them in trouble with the California Department of Insurance (who actually does a good job). But people… HEAR ME… DO NOT INSURE WITH NATIONWIDE. It is not worth the fight with a unethical collection agency over the allegation of an amoral insurance company. But, if you find yourself in a similar position… certify, certify, certify… Send your response Certified Mail, it is your only proof against the false and fraudulent allegations.
