AAA / Auto Club Group Insurance Review: Auto Insurance & Homeowners Insurance Complaint Ratings

How is the customer service and claims handling at Auto Club Insurance Group? How good is Auto Club Group‘s auto insurance & homeowners insurance? This blog entry helps you answer these important questions and decide if Auto Club Group is best for you!

Update 5/03/2013: I have posted the latest Auto Club complaint statistics for 2011, 2010, & 2009 (2012 will be available Aug 2013) which you can see here.

Auto insurance & home insurance customers do not have a lot of objective information available to them to evaluate how well their insurance company will provide customer service & handle claims.

Unfortunately, paying more for auto & home insurance does not mean better service or a fair claims settlement, so the price you pay is not an indication of whether you will have a problem with your insurance and feel ripped off.

There are plenty of individual stories on the Internet of problems with claims or service for every insurance company. But reading a lot of complaints on the Internet does not inform you if the majority of customers are happy with the insurance company, since they don’t write about it on the Internet.

Even a website full of complaint stories are anecdotal and not statistically significant. You need to look at large numbers to really spot a trend in poor service.

However, number scores may not be simple and easy for people to interpret, even though I explain them on my website.

So, I am doing a series of blog posts giving letter grades based on the complaint ratios, to make it as easy as possible to find the best auto & home insurance companies and avoid the worst insurance companies.

Here are my letter grades:

Note: After a few years of reviewing complaint statistics, I’ve changed my rating system to a better than average, average, and worse than average rating scale, which I think is more useful & fair in assessing an insurance company’s complaint record. A small difference in the number of complaints can make an “A” company go to a “C” company from year to year, so I think my old rating system is not helpful for understanding a positive or negative trend in complaints for a company. Please click here to see my new 2011, 2010, 2009 (2012 coming in Aug 2013) Auto Club insurance complaint ratings.

A+ = Insurance companies with complaints 25% or less than the average insurance company.

A = Insurance companies with complaints 50% or less than the average insurance company.

B = Insurance companies with complaints 90% or less than the average insurance company.

C = Insurance companies with complaints from 90% to 110% of the average insurance company.

D = Insurance companies with complaints from 110% to 200% of the average insurance company.

F = Insurance companies with complaints over 200% of the average insurance company. Over twice as much as average!

Consider these grades, along with price and other factors (as listed on my website), when choosing an auto insurance company.
