I never thought I'd write a negative review about State Farm, but I feel like I need to warn others…read moreabout the Bainbridge Island office specifically. I've had a mix of State Farm renters and homeowners insurance for over a decade and was always happy with their service that is until l I switched to the local Bainbridge agency. What happened recently has left me shocked and incredibly disappointed. I had a renters insurance policy through this office that covered both myself and my fiancé, as required by our property management company. While attending a dinner party in West Seattle, I came back to my car to find the window smashed and over $1,200 worth of personal belongings stolen. I'd never had a break-in before and didn't realize that renters insurance--not auto--covers theft from a car. I filed a claim through State Farm, and they issued a check for only $600, which already felt low considering how much was taken. But I figured it wasn't worth the fight because everything could be replaced, and this wasn't a common occurrence for me. Then, several months later, I received a letter from the Bainbridge office stating that my policy would be canceled in 45 days and would not be renewed. The reason? "Excessive claims." I was stunned. That break-in was the first and only claim I had ever filed in more than ten years of being a loyal, paying customer. I couldn't believe what I was reading. I called the office and pleaded with them to reconsider. I was treated like a number, not a person. The agency owner flat-out refused. I was being punished for using the insurance exactly as it's meant to be used. This experience has made me lose all trust in this local agency. I would strongly caution anyone thinking of working with this office. I never expected to be treated this way by a company I had relied on for so long.

Mindy was great, walked me through a plan and i was headed off to the races. I'm not sure I really understood it, but I rolled with it as best as I could. Fast forward a handful of years later and I wanted to revisit my plan. A lot changed from job to income and I needed something new after selling some real estate. The 2nd experience wasn't quite the same for a number of perspectives. What hit me the hardest was hearing what was said about my situation behind the scenes after my first consultation with Mindy. The planner (Sam) actally said outloud they didn't believe I could make something happen with the previous plan. Guess what, I did do something. Now I'm in need of another plan after an unexpected windfall, but don't trust the experience won't be the same. The other part I don't get is why it was suggested to open a brokerage account (which I did based on the plan) when playing the stock market is not something I do or comfortable with. Anything having to do with stocks and the market scares me and I'm very uncomfortable on any financial site outside of a bank. Nothing makes sense and vocabulary is vague. I expressed my discomfort in this area and needed a lot of hand holding to execute moving funds and opening a brokerage account. I still don't understand this one, but I did it based on a recommendation. Now I am sittiing with a brokerage account and it's doing nothing because the thought of it just paralyzes me. While the set it and forget it method is great concept in theory, it's only as good as the plan and the clients ability realistically execute. Although the 2nd plan was a great idea to retire at 62, it had zero reality of lifes unexpected changes. Good Luck!
