Beware of Fraudulent Insurance Practices - Avoid This Agent!…read more I had a terrible experience with Chris McAuliffe and want to warn others before they fall into the same trap. This agent sold me an insurance policy under false pretenses, misrepresenting the coverage and failing to disclose that he was not even licensed to sell insurance in Massachusetts. As a result of his negligence, the RMV flagged my vehicle as uninsured, revoked my license plates, and fined me. This has caused major disruptions, preventing me from registering my car, obtaining necessary parking permits, and even driving legally. On top of that, when I tried to find a legitimate insurance provider, I discovered that my quotes were now significantly higher due to this mess he caused. When I confronted the agent about the issue, he was completely unhelpful--first avoiding my calls, then brushing me off, and ultimately offering me $ out of his pocket as if that would make up for the damages he caused. He admitted to "assuming I would register my car in state of VT eventually" (which was never mentioned in our discussions) and told me I should "just explain to the police officer if I get pulled over." This is completely inappropriate and reckless advice. After I filed formal complaint with State Farm, she had the courage to lie about this whole event and how everything happend. I would strongly recommend avoiding this agent at all costs--they are incompetent and dishonest and will leave you to deal with the mess they caused on your own. Save yourself the stress and go with a reputable, licensed insurance provider instead and avoid State Farm and this office!

This will be my second review for Kia Martin and the staff at State Farm. Recently I had to replace…read moremy current vehicle with a new vehicle. I have nothing but an excellent review id like to leave for Kia and the staff. One is the fast, friendly and very courteous. 2nd I really can't thank ya all enough for what Kia has done for me. Although I no longer need full coverage on my car she still saved me almost 600.00 and the discount for the "Drive Safe" program a year. I highly recommend Nicole Hubbard and her staff at State Farm. Ya all are great and I really can't thank Kia enough!!

I really can't say enough positive about my experience with H&B insurance. I own a restaurant group…read morewith 8 locations in VT/NH for which they handle almost all of our insurance. And, I insure my personal home through them as well. They saved me thousands on our insurance while improving our coverage drastically. More importantly, they are incredibly responsive and available and it happens time and again that they go above and beyond to impress me. Just yesterday, I bought a minivan for the company. It was 7:30 pm as I left the dealer. I wasn't sure if it was insured automatically so I sent an email to ask. My agent called me back within 15 minutes at that late hour to tell me that, yes, it was automatically insured. Who does that? They have the combination of expertise and service that I only wish I could get for other services as consistently.

We had a commitment for AAA to come pick up our motorcycle at 8am Wednesday (5/15/2024). At 7:30…read morethat morning we received a call telling us he wasn't coming, that his boom truck wasn't working. I immediately called AAA and they were unable to find a replacement until maybe afternoon. Finally, my husband rolled his bike down Smugglers Notch mountain to start it, a danger because the road was wet and gravelly, then rode it 30 miles to be repaired. Why are we paying all this extra money if these people won't honor it?

Used the dealer insurance network to sign up with Winooski and had issues the first week. They gave…read moreme a rate, and didn't explain any discounts or what needed to be done to get the discount. Was sent a tracking device that would send GPS location info to insurance provider and was not told this was part of the program. Asked to remove it and honor the rate provided since this was not explained and was told they could not do that. A month goes by and rate increases by $50/mo because I didn't provide previous insurance coverage document. Was never asked for this document prior to rate increase. Basically they give you a low rate with a bunch of strings attached and don't explain them. Lying & deceitful company

Have been using Winooski Insurance for over 20 years. This year I'm switching. Felt like the rep…read morewho serviced me was too swamped to give the attention I needed and that she was becoming impatient with my questions. I lost her direct line phone number that was given to me and asked her for it again but she refused and said "just call anyone". I believe it's best to talk to the same person when I need service. Especially something like auto and home insurance which has a lot of moving parts and is expensive. Even though Winooski Insurance is local it no longer feels that way. Not what it used to be. One of the reasons why I shop local is to get personal attention. I'm taking my business elsewhere.
