Farmers Insurance to me about a yr. ago just wanted to let them know I've converted. Started out with the 'good hands', but, found out they should be called the crappy hands and took my trade to Farmers, so , far , so , good. Thanks for the tip !!!!!!!! Attachments:

I was with Farmers for a couple of years. They had lower rates because they didn't honor any claims. I hated them, but I hate all insurance companies. My homeowner's premium is outrageous - over $1,500 annually it was $200-$300 back in Montana.

I definitely agree with you on the high homeowner insurance rates for Amarillo.
I'm betting it's a combination of hail damage claims for roofs.
And the insurance companies know that we are in Tornado Alley.
I refinanced to get a lower interest rate...and at the same time my insurance went up a bit.
And that's even with the fact that I have never filed a claim.

all I know is 'good hands' raised our premium to almost 1,400 a yr and with Farmers it went down tad more then 200.
auto is high because of the influx of the rapidly growing population sector that drive around with no insurance after they get their license. I have that on good authority. I was satisfied with the fact that this fellow is always in the office and even answers the phone. 'good hands' folk offices are ran by folks whose name is on the door, but, like a ghost, you never see 'em.
I got a personal beef with them being inefficient and making me look like a fool , but, I took care of it. LOL

I switched from not so good hands not long ago because our agent was never in the office and always returned my phone call 2 days later than they promised. My agent sure did like to play golf during working hours. We switched to State Farm and are very happy. We didn't save much money. I can't figure out why, I have twins that are 16 years old and an 18 year old on my policy. Anyone like to donate to The wse1 "I got to many young drivers on my policy" fund? Just send it to my agent, if the wife gets her hands on it, no tellin what will happen. She just spend it on one of them kids.

Sounds like you're gonna need 3 full-ride scholarships college scholarships.
Or life may get very expensive you and the wife. ;D
I'm not sure on Texas Tech...but I think WT is now like $150 per semester credit hour.
And it was $15 per semester credit hour when I started at WT in the early 1980's.
Then it was a big deal when they tripled our tuition in like 1985 to $45 per hour.
I am so lucky to have gone when it was cheap to attend WT.

The oldest one is going to a school in Kansas to play volleyball. not a full ride but 75% full ride. She want to work for the FBI as a forensic accountant.
The boy can't even figure out when he needs to study. If it wasn't for his twin sister,he wouldn't know whats going on. He should get some kind of soccer scholarship but he will have to learn how to keep up with his own business. Pray for him!!!!!!
The twin girl wants to be a nurse. I think she will be the one most likely to succeed.
Iv'e been in debt all my life so the rest of my life won't feel any different. We were almost caught up until they started driving.
