Farmers Insurance - Michael Clinkenbeard

"Farmers insurance has failed me while I paid for 35 years. Two fires took them more than a year to lift a finger The cleanup responsibility landed on me for the first year so"

"Working with Mike, Madeline, Nicki, and Adam at Farmers Insurance has been an absolute pleasure. Their industry expertise is unmatched, and they're not just agents but genuine friends. They have an incredible ability to tailor insurance solutions for personal and business needs, ensuring we're always protected. Their personalized approach truly sets them apart; they understand our situation and provide advice that's in our best interest. The Clinkenbeard team goes above and beyond to ensure we're well-covered and compliant with regulations. Their availability and willingness to explain complex matters is greatly appreciated. In short, Mike and his team are the ultimate insurance professionals who combine knowledge with a personal touch—highly recommended for anyone seeking top-tier insurance services."

"I have been insured with Farmers with Mike for over 15 years. Always a phone call away to answer any questions and advise me, so I make the right decision for my Family, my home and business. Family owned and operated and will reffer them to everyone. When shopping for insurance you need to trust the person setting up your policy. Otherwise when it comes time to need it, you will not be happy with the outcome."

"Been with the Clinkenbeard office over 10 years. They service all our homes, auto and buisness and are on top of making sure we are always taken care of and making any claims processing as smooth as possible. If your looking for solid insurance and great coverage for all situations they are your go to!"

"I had a bad experience with Farmers Insurance over the last year. They are very expensive , especially if you have a small business. In addition, I had some issues on the premium audit which resulted in an extra $5,300 premium due for Worker's Comp. Before the audit commenced, we received a notice for an annual audit and my wife called the Farmer's Insurance Agency owner, Mike Clinkenbeard on the week of December 12th and asked him if we still needed to do the audit since we were no longer with Farmer's Insurance as of Oct 2022, and he stated it was optional so I was confused if doing the audit was mandatory or optional. With that being said, we received a certified letter a week later from Farmer's Insurance indicating that "Failure to comply with the Premium Audit.....will result in us being billed an Audit Non Compliance surcharge of $2,584." Mike did not disclose this to my wife. It was very unprofessional of him to not explain the urgency or the importance of the annual audit. I emailed and called Mr. Clinkenbeard regarding the additional bill of $5,300 and he never returned my email or call. It wasn't the first time he didn't reply to my emails or my calls. I even went to the office to discuss the issue and I was told he "wasn't available." His agency is quick to take your money but not so when it comes to customer service. There are better quality companies that offer the same services that Farmer's does but at a cheaper rate. I went with Hartford which is saving me about $1K per month and they have excellent customer service. I don't normally post negative reviews but when a customer asks a business owner for some clarifications and understanding, and ignores you, while having to dish out another $5,300, that you have to pay from your very small business (with only 3 part-time employees), it was necessary. There's no excuse for not replying to customer's emails or calls, PERIOD! Obviously, for this agency, customers are not a priority but your money is!"
