Their ability to listen to the customer's concerns and not their shareholder's. For 3 1/2 weeks I was in the ICU with my wife who was fighting for her life. She passed away last week and while I tried to get all the bills paid during this time, the DIC coverage was going to come in too late. I asked for leniency. When I spoke with someone there about the matter, they simply didn't care and asked me to pay AGAIN. I had forwarded a screenshot of the Wells Fargo payment but greed won out over grace. read more

After a stressful week and several emails back and forth with the insurance, PSI agreed to renew my mom's home insurance.

I cancelled my renters' insurance policy before I signed the document. They deducted a little over $50.00 for the renters' policy, but they sent me a check for $15.00 and some odd change, saying I was covered for two days. What a rip off. I will not go through a broker ever again; I will go straight through a company. read more

I called the office and I spoke with Kirk Goetz, a representative in your company. I really appreciate how efficient you were and how quickly you sent over the documents I needed. It made the process so easy. Thanks again for your excellent service. read more

Harassment until they can find grounds to drop you. After being insured by this company for more than 20yrs without a single claim, the company started a policy of harassment with threats of cancellation. It began with an inspection where the company finds minor issues around the property and requires you to fix. After several rounds of fixing and returning pictures to document, the inspector finds additional issues. The final round, the inspector cited leaves on the ground from a small 6ft tree that had dropped in the fall season. My house is kept in good shape, and I cannot understand why they are harassing me and others who I can see in this forum. I can only guess that they don't find my policy profitable or they want to get out of CA, so they will harass you with minor issues until they can find a reason to drop you read more

Do not use this company for homeowners insurance. They will come to your house and take pictures and find every excuse to cancel you and give you a laundry list of items to fix that they do not honor worse. Insurance company ever f*** them get him out of California. read more

How do I give 0 stars? Dropped my coverage after 2 claims that weren't cashed out and 1 claim was due to drain leak that existed before I bought the place not caught by inspector.. read more

This company will drop the ball on you - they don't communicate, they don't respond, they make false statements and will cancel your policy after several years without any claims. And they will do this without telling you. I reached out to them to discuss a rental property and found out I was canceled less than a month before my renewal date. Stay away from this company. They have unfair business practices and terrible scores with the BBB. They don't care about you and they do not deserve your business. read more

Pacific Specialty Insurance - Home & Rental Insurance Near Me - Anaheim, California

Do not use this insurance... they are liars rude dishonest and thieves they need to be shut down.. when I filed a claim I was assigned claims adjuster Elaina Robinson she has been nothing but rude dishonest unavailable and when she does answer her calls she claims she hasn't received a call and ask that you send and do everything again very unprofessional she will yell and scream at you so she can get her point across she lies about the facts to better suit the company and deny your claim.. her supervisor Alycia Price is just as rude and dishonest they feed you lies and never return your call.. Their field adjuster Sam Spencer is lazy and he will only walk into your home look for something to deny your claim.. These people are crooks..If you have pacific specialty and you are assigned these so call people ask for someone else even though I've read other reviews and at times I thought they were talking about Elaina Alycia and Sam Spenser but it turned out to be other adjusters.. I believe this company teaches their employees to be rude and nasty to their policy holders and deny all water damage claims .. they use the same term it was a "slow leak". Please do yourself a favor stay clear from this insurance ... I wish they would get shut down they are liars and do not honor their policy holders... DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY... they will gladly take your money but if you file a claim ... They will deny it they are CROOKS!!! read more

I can't say enough bad things about this company. If you have a choice to buy no insurance at all, or insurance from Pacific Specialty, try no insurance at all. It'll save you the cost of the premiums, and when you have a legitimate claim, both will have you with no coverage. They have worked very hard to earn an F rating (their lowest rating) from the Better Business Bureau (BBB), and one star rating from Yelp (their lowest rating). read more

After pondering what Pacific Specialty Insurance did to me, I realized their dishonesty goes much deeper than I originally listed. I posted about how they used photos from March or April, 2024, to justify cancelling my home insurance policy, claiming that a washer/dryer on the back porch were unacceptable, among other items. They sent someone to my house in November 2024 to take pictures but withheld those pictures when we were communicating with them about their concerns. Those pictures would have shown that the appliances were no longer on the porch because I got rid of them in April. Moreover, the motorcycles were moved to Arizona in July 2024 and that fact would have shown in the November photos. read more

I was a customer of this company for 18 years. I have a mobile home and my neighbor was an agent for them. A couple of years ago they told me to get a new and then they would reinstate me. I just did so and called today to be told they would nit reinstare me or sell any policy in California!!! I now have no idea what to do. Customer loyalty means nothing to them! Horrible! read more

Awful company - if I could give ZERO stars I would. I got homeowner's insurance through them when I bought my home in May 2024, and they have constantly nitpicked and made ridiculous demands and cancelled me twice - once was for not replacing the roof shingles of a backyard shed with a matching color shingle. They have zero communication skills, and cancel on a dime, no notice whatsoever. I believe they cancel repeatedly in order to get more money from the homeowner - every time they cancel, the homeowner has to pay whatever extension for a full year's coverage. They are terrible, terrible. read more

If I could give them 0 stars, that would be my rating. Worst Insurance Company ever!! They canceled my insurance without sending me an email, or a letter in the mail. I was just told recently that there is a State funded insurance program that most people can qualify for. That will be my new homeowners insurance. read more

Jessica, the field appraiser for Pacific Specialty. is professional, efficient and extremely caring for the situation.I was in. Elania Customer Care desk specialist was also extremely helpful and professional .Both great assets to this company.They handled my problem quickly. I Have been with pacific Specialty ins 10 years and I will continue to keep them. read more

If it was possible to give them 0 stars I would. The company is so bad a contractor warned me up front they don't like to pay. True to his warning I was offered $2900.00 for a $9000.00 job. After contacting the state insurance board because they wouldn't return calls or even contact the contractor directly, they paid me commensurate to the damages. However after that was concluded my policy was cancelled as what I can only consider as retribution for reporting their practices. This was my first and only claim with this horrible company. Stay away from them at all cost. It is now months later an I get a call from a co tractor that they still have not been paid. Pacific Specialty also doesn't return their calls or emails. They have shorted these people $3000.00 that I'll probably have to pay now. Adjuster Raylon Jones almost takes pleasure in not servicing you and ignoring calls and emails and then lying about it on the rare occasion you catch up to him. read more

Please save yourself any trouble and heartache, and choose any company other than Pacific specialty insurance. How the insurance board allows this company to exist is beyond me. What this company is great at is placating you with shallow empathy making you believe they are here for you. Well... That's a lie. Seven months into my claim and they're treating me as if I did something wrong constantly second questioning the damages and the repairs necessary to be completed in order to restore what once was... my home. And after multiple attempts when you do finally reach somebody in upper management you are greeted with a smug and condescending individual who has no clue regarding your case. Again, please save yourself any heartache and trouble. Avoid dealing with this company that does not believe in accountability, punctuality, and or professionalism. I hope someone who can actually make changes within the company - for the better- reads this and does something. You have single-handedly ruined, homeownership for us. read more

I am rating this company a one because it's it's the lowest I am able to rate it. I have been a devoted customer for almost a decade and they can't help me on weekends. My house had a flood two days ago and the contractor recommended a hotel because of possible asbestos and mold exposure and a dehumidifier running 24 hours that makes it difficult to sleep. I am shopping for a new insurance company now and would not recommend using this lazy insurance company that can't work weekends. I may even file lawsuit against them especially if my teenage son gets sick from the exposure. read more

NO STARS! I experience the worst display of professionalism known to man. Catherine Emerson; Inside Property Claims Adjuster @ Pacific Specialty Insurance Company. I had a great day, was in a calm mood, and was feeling quite happy. I called in with 1 simple question regarding clarification on "depreciation". She answered hurriedly, talking fast like an "auctioneer" at an auction. I gasped, "excuse me, could you slow down a bit so I can follow you?" She excused herself saying she just got in the office and asked for my claim number because she didn't have my file and wasn't ready yet. After doing so, the conversation went from zero to 100 in a blink. As I waited on the phone, she pulled up an email and started speed reading..., I asked her to slow down so I could follow along and then the rant began. "Well, I shouldn't be reading this, she said something about personal belongings continued...it's your responsibility to read all this yourself..I tried to interject but she didn't let me get a word in edge-wise. She made a snotty remark, "that's above my pay-grade". I asked her for the name of her supervisor she mentioned a Doug with no last name and then I asked for his number; she gave me the wrong to another property claims adjuster. Rather than apologizing for her behavior, she went on ranting saying "good luck, he's happier than I am". "You won't get anybody on the phone on a Friday!" What's unnerving is that she had no fear that her offensive behavior would have any repercussions. It was very apparent she was used to getting away with mistreating clients and speaking to them rudely. Needless to say, she was reading from the wrong report and I never got to ask my original question. Is this what I get after 16 years of faithfully paying my premiums on time month after month? This is my only claim in 16 years!! It doesn't make sense. Angela Washington read more
