I walked into Tarpey and briefly met with Patty, giving her details about my unhappiness with my existing provider (poor customer service and constantly rising prices). Patty collected all the information she needed and emailed me the next morning with quotes for home insurance and automobile insurance. The price was significantly lower that my existing policies so I moved both policies to Tarpey. I don't think I'll ever leave. Any time I've emailed Patty or sent someone from my family to their office the service has exceeded my expectations.

Run away from them as fast as you can! MML Investors Services in Springfield is affiliated with…read moreBaystate Financial and they will try to get away with as little effort as possible. I finally removed all my money from MML/Baystate after over a decade of getting no help or advice. I got stuck with their financial advisor, Timothy Curran, as a result of my original advisor leaving Met Life. Once I moved out of state, Timothy Curran never even called me once a year to check in over the past 15+ years. When I called him, I rarely got to talk to him directly and if I did it was very brief. He provided no guidance. I usually spoke with his assistant Karen who gave me an attitude whenever I had a question/problem and was not helpful. Whatever other money I had to invest, I went elsewhere. When I finally transferred all my money from MML/Baystate to another financial advisor with another company, I was charged for a negative balance that I found out had incurred prior to Oct 2015 (after weeks of my investigation) when Met Life merged into MML. No one told me about it or alerted me to that problem or to the fact that I was getting a 5% interest charge on the negative balance every month. I could've easily paid it off 7 years ago. It was the result of an investment that had fees that outweighed the profit, so when I asked Tim what happened to the account when I first noticed it missing on my report, I was told it was closed out. No advice, no other explanation or instructions. When I called Tim Curran for an answer in 2022 about why that negative balance kept continuing to accrue interest charges and why wasn't I told about it before 2015, his assistant said, "How should we know? You should contact MML to find out. We wouldn't have any idea why they did that!" I called MML over 10x and got a different person each time that had no idea what was going on. After more than a month of calling MML, I FINALLY spoke to a young man that explained what happened. It took him 2 minutes. He felt bad that nobody was willing to help me and actually gave me erroneous information (I was told I was wrong - that it was a credit not a debit). Tim Curran and MML couldn't bother giving me that help and info. When I asked for reimbursement for the interest charges since 2015 due to negligence on MML/Curran's part, I was denied. By the way, when I was told to call Baystate Financial directly, and was given 5 names of people to talk to, I could never get through to a human. And all the people I was told to reach to get help had voicemail boxes that were conveniently full!!
