I so appreciate the discount you offer to those who work or retired from the school district to receive a reduced rate. It's so important, epecially now, during this time of inflation. Also, you are also very quick to provide the services needed for necessary repairs to my vehicle and/or home.

They will fight you tooth and nail.

They will fight you tooth and nail on everything. Then, if they do give you money, don’t spend it because they may try to take it back under threat of a lawsuit. Customer service has really gone downhill as well. They just shuffle you back and forth with each person giving a different story hoping you will give up.
This used to be a good company 10-15 years ago. Now they just want to take your money for nothing.

Love Cal Cas, Hate new $$$ increase

I have had Cal Cas for many years, through four homes. I am happy with the care I have been shown, HOWEVER, I am NOT happy with the 30%+ increase I was just hit with on my upcoming year's homeowner insurance. I am a retired teacher, widowed, on a fixed income. This is a huge hit for me to absorb.

I had a flood in my house two months ago. They were fairly quick to settle the mitigation but I’ve been waiting weeks to get our estimate approved for build back. They’ve had all our estimates from our contractor but meanwhile we have lived with dust and three plastic walls. My husband has been sick for weeks with all the dust while we wait and wait. We have called and emailed almost every day and still it has not settled. We still wait. Maybe someday we will be able to get our house back in order. Frustrating.

No Response to Me Nor the Repair Shop

I was involved in a collision, filed a claim, and submitted for a photo estimate. Once approved, I took my vehicle to a local repair shop where they quickly discovered damaged that could not be seen prior to the removal of the bumper. They requested a supplement from the Damage Adjuster assigned to my claim, Rick Hill, who told them that they would hear from him on Monday...more than a week ago. I have been calling Rick; Jori Brinkman, the Claims Adjuster; and Angela Jenkins, the team Manager, but have not had any success getting a meaningful response from any of them. I have had a call back from an Adjuster named Anthony who was covering for Jori in her apparent absence, but he had none of the details that I had given in my repeated phone calls or emails, and after brief conversations never called back or emailed as promised with any resolution. Not even the courtesy of an update. My vehicle has been in the shop for nearly two weeks for a repair that would take two days. Meanwhile, my meager rental coverage was exhausted waiting for a supplement. I am stranded, inconvenienced, and extremely dissatisfied.
