I called and spoke with liberty mutual on ****.2022 due to my payment showing coming out of my account with due date always being the 8.28./8.29. I spoke with a rep and manager who advised me that they refund me the money for the fee and that she changed my date. 9.9.2022 I now have two NSF fees on my account from the same payment I told Liberty Mitual I didnt have on ****.2022. This managers ******* need more and better training honestly. Every time I speak she speaks over me and saying she nothing on my account and not willing to help. Previous manager on **** advised that she would waive this fee and ******* is refusing to do anything of the sort. Im a preferred employee account and I didnt authorized this second attempt on my account. You need to fix this or Im calling my policy regardless and if it cancel out we Im waiting on a resolution I will continue to submit BBB complaints.

I had a policy with Safeco Insurance company. Then a woman in my church we are friends with got us a better deal on car insurance. So, we paid off what we owed to Safeco and went with the other company to support them. After we paid what we owed ****** kept sending us bills that we owed them more money. After discussing it with the company, they continued to bill us. Now they placed money that we do not owe them in collections, and my excellent credit score is at risk. I feel stressed and upset and believe this could have been avoided. It almost makes me feel as if I am being attacked for leaving a company when we were only trying to support a friend. I do not care about money and paying my bills. This is a matter of integrity, and I do not care about the money. I feel bullied for leaving a company; my only power is to place a complaint with the BBB. Thank you for allowing me to file this complaint.Business Response

This is a formal complaint against the unprofessional and unethical business practices executed by the Liberty Mutual Insurance Company in its handling of my insurance policies as a long time consumer consistently in good standing. The umbrella policy (LLR9153062019A) I purchased from Liberty Mutual was unjustly cancelled by them, and they made it impossible for me to make a payment online via www.libertymutual.com or by phone via their automated bill payment system. The recent Labor Day holiday weekend made their offices inaccessible to me due to closure, and they also closed earlier on Sunday, 9/5/22. Previously, when I viewed my policy online it stated I had until 9/7/22 to make a payment to prevent cancellation. I do not know where this new date of 9/5/22 came from. Everything this company does is steeped in inconsistency. I attempted to make payment on the policy on Saturday, ***************** 9/3/22, 9/4/22, and 9/5/22 respectively and their bill payment system would not allow me to make payment, as this dishonest company had blocked access by phone and online for me to make any payment at all. This company has inconvenienced clients with poor business hours, rude customer service representatives, lengthy, extended telephone hold times for clients, and subpar availability to its public overall. It is what is to be expected from a company located in MA that utilizes a *** landmark in its logo and advertising. The deception is everywhere in this company's dealings with its customers. I want my umbrella policy reinstated as a satisfactory resolution to this unfair, ugly issue. I called this company on Tuesday, 9/6/22, to FINALLY get to talk to an actual human being about my umbrella policy. I was confronted with the smarmy condescension of an insurance agent by the name of ******. I explained that I had always been an excellent customer and previously had paid my policies (I have three with Liberty Mutual) in full. However, due to becoming ill and not working.Business Response

I was involved in an automobile accident on 08/17/2022. It was a total loss. My insurance policy with Liberty Mutual has a provision which states that it has "the Better Car Replacement Coverage which "means that when your car is deemed a total loss, we'll give you the money for a replacement car that is one model year newer with ****** fewer miles than your current car." The value of my replacement vehicle is approximately $12,000 to $******. They have offered $4,500. They have misled me to believe that I would receive the necessary money to purchase a replacement vehicle. I believe this constitutes breach of contract, fraud and misrepresentation. I am requesting the appropriate compensation for the total loss of my vehicle as required by my insurance policy.Business Response

On April 13, 2022 I filed an insurance claim with Liberty Mutual. During my initial conversation with the Field Claims Resolution Specialist I was not under the impression that he was working in good faith. I immediately reached back out to Liberty Mutual to request a different specialist. However, my calls are always transferred to the individual who was assigned my claim. I have since contacted the Presidential Management Team. I again was transferred back to the original Field Claims Resolution Specialist. For months now I have been very clear about my interaction with this individual. Again, I am requesting that my claim be removed from this individual and transferred to another employee for action.Business Response

I thought I was getting better insurance than what I had with Progressive. Same coverage for a little less. It turns out it wasn't the same coverage at all. I was the victim of a hit & run. My car was parked with the back door open in front of my house. A white pickup hit my door & kept going. I believe it was intentional because they made a loud "ye-ha" before speeding up & hitting the door with me next to it. It was dark & I was shocked. I didn't get the license plate. The police came & are calling it an assault with a deadly weapon. The adjuster called & said they only cover uninsured claims if the vehicle or person is clearly identified. That information should be in big bold print. I thought I was covered. When I signed up I thought comprehensive & uninsured motorist covered everything that could happen. I've been involved in 2 other hit & runs over the last 15 ********** insurance companies at the time always paid for my car repair damages. The whole problem with a hit & run is you typically don't have time to snap a picture or write a license plate down. People need to be warned. You think you're covered & then Liberty Mutual is telling me I'm not.Business Response

After the adjuster told me I needed the license plate or identity of the driver for my uninsured motorist policy to take effect, I found the vehicle. I provided the license plate of the vehicle that hit me both to Liberty Mutual & the police ****. The detective from the police **** on my case agrees it is the correct vehicle.
Now Liberty Mutual is saying they are denying my claim because they ran the plate & no information came up. They now say I need to find the identity of the driver.
They keep moving the goal post. I think their true motive is to avoid payment on claims.
I have video footage, I have witnesses, I have the actual vehicle. This isn't a hit and run I'm making up. I can prove it happened. What is the purpose of uninsured motorist insurance if not to cover you when you're hit by an uninsured motorist?Business Response

I filed a claim with Liberty Mutual on 6/23/22. We received a big storm and a tree fell on our house roof causing damage. Right away I contacted a contractor to come and give me an estimate on damages. Liberty mutual also sent out a claims adjuster to provide an estimate. They provided me with their estimate on 7/9/22 which was $3947.53. My contractor stated that we needed more money to be able to cover all the damages that Liberty Mutual stated they wanted to see repaired. After weeks of not hearing back from my claims adjuster, I finally got ahold of someone and they informed me that my adjuster "was no longer in their system" and a new adjuster needed to be assigned. Therefore my claim sat there untouched for weeks. The new adjuster stated I needed to have another adjuster from Liberty Mutual get in contact with my contractor. After several more weeks of not being able to contact the adjuster and no meeting ever took place, I was once again told someone new was being assigned my claim. I was then informed they needed more pictures of the roof damage. I sent those to my third adjuster on 8/29/22. After attempting to contact him to make sure he received the pictures multiple times with no response, I called Liberty Mutual and was once again told that "he is no longer in the system and someone new needed to be assigned my claim. As of 9/1/22 I am on my 4th adjuster, had to resend all the information, and my contractor is hoping there is time to get me scheduled to get the roof repaired before winter.Business Response
