Who do you use?
For car insurance?
We are shopping around. We currently have USAA, and they're wonderful. But after DH's accident in March, our rates obviously went up since he totaled his vehicle and he thinks we should shop around for better rates.
I really think we'll be hard pressed to find anyone better than USAA though.

Just do it!
We had Liberty Mutual for the longest time (DH liked that we could have a policy good for a year instead of 6 months) but when we bought the house twg was suggested to us and they were cheaper than anyone we found. The guy we used was Jeff but lately the emails have been coming from someone else.

DH had state farm before we got married, and we switched him to USAA when we got married because we got a better rate than State Farm quoted us.
So far this morning I've called Progressive, Geico, and NationWide and they've all been at least $40-50 more/month than what we're paying now.
We also bundle with our renters insurance.
I'm almost at a loss for what other companies to try.
That's high! I pay that for DH and myself, on 2 cars through Allstate. Well, $130 for both of us.
PS - We use Allstate.
However, we have a motorcycle policy through Geico, and they quoted us $100/month for both of us, with more coverage. We may be switching!
Bio
Allstate, forgot about them.
I know, I've always had high insurance and never really understood why because I don't have anything on my driving record at all. I think it's the cars I've had and low deductible combined with high coverage.
We don't have cars but our house is through Allstate.
My parents have USAA, and I can honestly tell you I don't think there is anything better out there than them. Even if the premium turned out to be slightly higher, their service is amazing.
It is my understanding (from rental car) that all insurance companies share a network of information and all of them will see your DH's wreck and quote appropriately. It may not help to switch at this point.
DH used Geico and his is pretty cheap. He wants me to switch, but I'm very hesitant.
I've been with State Farm since I started driving so I get a discount for that plus all kinds of other discounts. I have my car, house and personal article property with them. I'm a loyal customer so it will be very hard to switch.
We don't use USAA, but I completely agree with Tiffany.

This is what I keep trying to tell DH. I've been with them for 10 years now, because my stepfather is a veteran. DH just joined this last year because we got married.
But, I'm "shopping around" for DH.
Make sure it was State Farm MUTUAL. I think that makes a difference.

Ok, thanks Stephie. I'll keep that in mind.
From 16 until a few months ago, I used Geico and I love how helpful and quick to respond they are. Plus, they work with Service King and my family has gotten their cars back within a week to ten days after recent accidents. I miss them. Bill decided that his fly by night company (I had never heard of them before) was better.
It looks like after my research I've convinced DH that USAA is really the best around and we are sticking with them! Thank goodness! I didn't want to leave, just had to convince DH.
