I used State Farm for the first 12 years of my driving record. Last summer they had the gall to send me a letter requiring $35 for each of my 2 cars or the policy would lapse. I called and asked about this, and the reason was because I had been rerated as a "youthful driver" at 26y10m of age. They sent me a $140 check for my 25th birthday, and now they wanted half of it back. I asked why, I have been with the company for the first 12 years of my driving, with NO accidents and only ONE ticket. WTF, is this how corperate America treats loyal good customers? It so happened that I received an offer for a quote from AIG (through a fraternal church group) on the very same day that SF sent the request for more $$$$'s. I called them up and was quoted $140 LESS than my raised/new premium's would be with SF. So, I called my SF agent to see if there was anything he could do, he said no, and I told him where he could shove the $70 and other premiums, where the sun don't shine.
