Insurer Blocks In-Person Transactions and Hides Renewal Pricing Behind Long Phone Queues
A customer trying to pay a bill and check an auto renewal price found the storefront location could not process any transactions or provide policy information, phone wait times exceeded 30 minutes, and renewal pricing was only revealed after payment was already due. This lack of accessible, timely account information makes it difficult for customers to review costs or compare shop before renewal, and raises concern about support quality during an actual claim.
