“Great Service”

Peyton Bates was outstanding. I would still be lost if he didn't stop in and help us pick the right plan that day. He was patient, enthusiastic, and he still checks in weekly to make sure we are doing well! 10/10

They gave me one quote option - the same company I was already using! Terrible, horrible, service... likely scraping your info to sell to scammers. Do Not Use.

DO NOT ever get a quote from their site and DO NOT put your contact details there ‼‼
You will get hundreds of calls from so many different numbers in a few minutes and that's TOO MUCH! I warn you, DO NOT!

Tip for consumers:
TOO MANY CALLS!!

I am pretty upset about this company.

I was looking for car insurance quotes online for temporary car insurance. I filled out their form with my personal details. They then linked me to three to four other websites which then asked me for more of my personal details. I didn't get a quote appearing on a webpage that i wanted.

Instead, within 1 day, i had 10-15 texts, 5-10 spam calls and 10-15 emails asking me to text them back for quotes. Now some of them did offer insurance quotes along with their texts. But they came from MANY MANY insurance companies, so that if i told them i wanted to stop, another insurance company would just bother me. I want this to stop. And they do not make this stopping process easy.

I had to google this data privacy form in order to stop the calls.

https://www.everquote.com/data-privacy-form/
I had to fill out this form several times with the same information in order to get through. In the meantime, I had to endure another day or so of spam calls, texts and emails from insurance agents. Which I don't want.

I also had to put my phone number on the do not call registry

https://www.donotcall.gov/

Again, it takes awhile to go into effect.

I don't know if this way of doing business it's legal. But even if this is, it doesn't seem very ethical or customer friendly to me. Left a bad first impression. I don't want to see them again. Hope they change their ways.

Tip for consumers:
Don't enter your data

So shopping for homeowners insurance, clicked on them to get a quote. They took me to another screen and showed two links. Neither had any of the information I entered on the everquote site. Then they started calling me. Some demon dialer thing and once you answer they put you in a hold queue. Then the person puts you into another queue to call some insurance agent. They do trade some information with the agents but a total misrepresentation. One said they were Independent and then came up with a Farmers quote. The Allstate one seemed to be the only one that was actual. On the fourth call I told them to STOP calling me. Blocked that number. Then started getting calls from other numbers and had to block those.

DO NOT FALL FOR THIS site! Yes they are routing you to insurance agents who are too lazy to go beat the bushes for business but they just keep calling and calling and calling. Then they want you to jump through flaming hoops to get them to stop.

HORRIBLE BUSINESS model for the consumer.

All it does is sends your information to insurance sites. The calls start coming in. If you enjoy telemarketers harassing you, this is the perfect service.

No credit for disconnected numbers.
People sat they weren't looking for whatever it is they give you the lead for.
They resell same name over and over.

Tip for consumers:
Don't waste your time, energy or money. Their leads truly suck. Unfortunately I prepaid for a bunch and not one is legit.

EQ used to be the best in the industry. They've gone downhill and are sending trash leads to agents. Look elsewhere for quality

They make you fill out all the forms, only to link you to the other providers where you just have to repeat all the steps again and again. COMPLETELY POINTLESS WEBSITE
