Farmers Insurance - Joan Comstock

I have the worst experience ever with Farmers Insurance. I wanted to cancel my insurance because I sold my car. I purposely told my insurance agent the day before my next insurance cycle that I wanted to cancel. She told me that the system might not be able to recognize my cancellation by midnight and thus I might still be charged for the next month. But she will let the company know and get me a refund ASAP if that happens. Turns out, I got charged the next day. Then my agent sent me this unclear statement saying I owe the policy 54 dollars (I did not owe anything or been in any accident). I was confused so I called and she told me she will ask the company and get back to me because apparently she doesn't know what is going on either. I waited for more than a week, didn't get a penny back. And so I called again and she said it is from another department and she will have to get back to me next week. Luckily this time she got back to me early saying there's a cancellation fee of 54 dollars being charged. so I will be getting a refund of my monthly payment that was accidentally charged after the cancellation 105 - the cancellation fee 54 dollars. First of all, I have never heard something like a cancellation fee when you want to cancel your car insurance. It is a competitive market and all the insurance company try to keep their customers satisfied to build up the reputation. But Farmers is almost like since "the system" has already charged you for an extra month, we might as well come up with something and let you suck it up. And ha there is the cancellation fee. Throughout the whole time, the charges and refund were so unclear. Even when I ask for a clear statement of how they came up with the number they charged me, they never provided that. And each time they tell me different excuses. I would never use/recommend Farmers Insurance to anyone. Avoid it as much as you can.
