Customer Reviews
Overall, I am very pleased with the service I have been receiving, especially in terms of the promptness of responses, the helpfulness of the customer service representatives, and the ease of the claims process.
Lisa and the staff are always friendly and happy to answer questions and explain options when Im undecided on how to proceed with my insurance decisions.
Ive always been well taken care of regardless of the issue.
GREAT SERVICE AND HAVING BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE HAVING PATIENCE WITH ME ESPECIALLY WHEN MY STERLING EQUINOX WAS SERVICE UPON. Response time was excellent!!!
Everyone is very knowledgeable, friendly, and will return your calls in a timely manner.
Your employees are always so helpful, kind & knowledgeable. If the dont know the answer they find it out!
Prompt responses to my questions and other insurance related needs. Knowledgeable. Friendly. I've been with Lisa Knight for more than 30 years and I've had nothing but positive experiences with her. Her associates have also been similarly helpful when I've dealt with them. I should also mention that Auto Owners is a great insurance company. They have never given me any trouble with claims. My only concern is the rapid increases in cost of insurance but that really isn't specific to Auto Owners.
Kelly Calmeyn has been my agent for years and I fully trust her on getting me the best coverage for the money. She answers any questions I have quickly and thoroughly. She made switching insurance companies a breeze.
I was very happy with service that I received. My agent so knowledgeable and answered all my questions. I think if you are looking for new insurance this should be where you start.
This agency never fails to find answers to any insurance questions I may have in a very prompt and professional manner, and always courteous and polite while also searching and providing great rates, thanks to all at G B K
