The quote that came back was much higher because of changes to the California Fair Plan. She actually told me to call a friend of hers at another company to see if their rate was lower.

We will certainly be using her for our insurance needs moving forward!

Today we attended a tax seminar hosted by Marshall Life & Financial Solutions (MLFS). Victoria…read moreMarshall opened the session with brief remarks, followed by Adrien Barajas as the lead presenter. From the outset, the presentation was incoherent. Adrien jumped erratically between topics, clipped terminology mid-sentence, and attempted to showcase expertise through jargon that ultimately backfired. His use of a graph depicting tax history and national debt felt performative rather than informative--a clear turnoff. Mentions of Roth conversions were casually dropped, seemingly to entice attendees into future consultations rather than to educate. At no point did either presenter cite their professional credentials, nor are any verifiable designations listed on their website. This lack of transparency raises serious concerns about the legitimacy of the material presented. The venue--a community room at the local library--was poorly maintained. We were forced to relocate due to visibly dirty tables and stained surfaces. The acoustics were equally problematic: excessive echo and ambient noise severely undermined any attempt at meaningful communication. It's unclear why MLFS couldn't secure a venue that meets basic health and presentation standards--such as a clean, carpeted hotel conference room with proper sound insulation and equipment. Victoria encouraged attendees to grab snacks as the session approached lunchtime, triggering a chorus of crinkling bags and chewing that further disrupted the already fractured delivery. Overall, this seminar failed on every metric: content quality, presenter skill, venue hygiene, and professional credibility. Within 15 minutes, we were compelled to leave--astonished by the lack of coherence and institutional rigor. It was, without exaggeration, the most poorly executed seminar we've ever attended.

We recently purchased a property in Big Bear and felt it was important to work with a local…read moreinsurance agent who truly understood the area and the unique insurance challenges that come with mountain properties. We were referred to Farmers Insurance in Big Bear, and I am extremely glad we were. When I called, I had the pleasure of speaking with Nickole. From the moment she answered the phone, she was polite, professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful. Anyone purchasing a home in the Big Bear area knows that many insurance companies will not write policies there, which often means going through the California FAIR Plan along with a wraparound policy. Nickole completely understood the process and explained everything clearly. She gathered all of my information and told me she would get back to me before the end of the day. To be honest, these days you often hear that and never receive a callback, but Nickole did exactly what she promised. Before the end of the day she called me back, had quotes prepared, emailed everything over, and we were able to finalize coverage and payment before 5:00 PM that same day. In today's world, finding someone who truly follows through and delivers on their promises is rare. Nickole absolutely exceeded expectations. If you are looking for insurance in the Big Bear area, I highly recommend calling Farmers Insurance and asking for Nickole. You will be blown away by her professionalism, communication, follow-up, and overall customer service.

I've gotta say that Allstate was far better than my previous auto insurance, they saved me a lot…read more The low rating is because of the agent that works there, when I started my auto policy, they were unable to issue renter's insurance due to the recent earthquakes. Move ahead to a couple of weeks ago I called to inquire about the renters policy, was told it could be issued and asked the agent I want it but not until the 15th of the month due to strict budgeting, the agent pushed it through anyways without my consent. I was unable to move things around so the payment was returned causing my bank to charge me a high fee. A few days later said agent called and said payment didn't go through and I needed to pay another fee to them, to top it off said agent was aggressive and told me it was my fault this happened and not hers. I was able to call corporate filed a complaint that was found justified and they waived the fee imposed, they were unable to do anything about my bank fee though. I also was able to change agents to a different office. I don't know if this was an isolated incident or if it happens often but I would suggest avoiding it all together and not go to this agent.

I've only had a policy with the company for a month and this was my very first interaction with the employees in person.

I was being helped my the man but the WOMAN aka the banshee, kept chirping behind me and talking down to me, when I said I was going to Yelp about the situation she told me I'd be putting her job in jeopardy bc it's only them there and then proceeded to tell me that THEY DIDNT HAVE TO HELP ME AT ALL. The banshee kept interjecting as this is a small office I definitely felt cornered and attacked. I sincerely hope this woman does get reprimanded, I'll also being calling corporate for a more formal complaint.
