"I called our agent’s office to get clarification on a bill that I just received.Sarah Magdaleno answered my call and did some digging. There had been an endorsement credit that had not been applied to the original amount. That dropped the payment to about $227 down from $591. She saved me a lot of time tracking it down and getting the correct numbers needed. I really appreciate it. Thank you, Sarah. Sincerely, Dori Arthur"
We responded:
"Thank you so much for your kind words, Dori! We're thrilled to hear that Sarah was able to assist you promptly and accurately with your billing question.

"AVOID THIS INCOMPETENT OFFICE! They failed to renew my FEMA flood policy as they had agreed to and the lapse caused the policy to expire. I tried to reactivate the policy, however FEMA will not honor the Annual Increase Cap Discount. My annual premium went up $3,732 because of their incompetence!"
We responded:
"Thank you for sharing your concerns. I understand your frustration and regret the inconvenience this situation has caused. We confirmed that three renewal offers were sent, but your coverage unfortunately lapsed due to payment not being received. FEMA has advised that the premium caps cannot be honored once a policy lapses. While we wish this were within our control, we must follow the rules and guidelines set by FEMA and the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Please feel free to contact me directly if you would like to discuss this further. - Lydia Harville, State Farm Insurance Agent, Santa Cruz, CA"

"State Farm ROCKS! Local rep Lydia and her staff Sarah (who is handling my current case), as well as the adjuster Amee has been super helpful and quick to react to my request. They all understand my situation very well. Sarah checks up on us in an appropriate intervals to see if we have any concerns. If there is a concern on our part, she is quick to act and keeps things moving along and addresses any concerns. Stat Farm's electronic payment system works very well too. I submit invoice or any expense report and it's approved within few hours and the funds are transferred (ACH) to my account in couple of days. I understand that other form of reimbursement such as credit cards or PayPal, funds are available almost immediately. The project is not completed yet, but so far, GREAT!"
We responded:
"Thank you so much for your fantastic review! I’m thrilled to hear that Sarah, your claim rep Amee, and the entire team have been attentive and responsive throughout your claim experience. We always strive to understand each client’s unique situation and provide timely support. It’s great to know our electronic payment system is working smoothly for you as well. We look forward to continuing to assist you until your project is fully completed—please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need anything! - Lydia Harville, State Farm Insurance Agent, Santa Cruz, CA"

"To be honest where do I start!? Lydia Harvilles team/firm is the best I have been doing business with them for a while now and I’m just beyond satisfied to be part of the Statefarm community ,from all the staff to the services I been provided I have absolutely no regrets ! Just like you I been with various insurance companies , regardless of the payments and or customer service I have received , I can confidently say there is no company like State Farm and to be honest Lydia’s team gave me more than enough care, attention , reliability and of course all the confirmation to not only stay with them but to also recommend all I come in contact with to this firm !! Now without there amazing team it wouldn’t be possible COLIN , MARYANN , AND OF COURSE THE BEST , MS . ASIA . Whenever I have any concerns, troubles or even life changing events happen in my life they have all helped me , been there , and treated me with the up most respect ! Colin and Mrs Mary Ann were always the first for me to request and will always be the ones I can count on when I need help , but absolutely no one compares to MS. Asia after receiving help from her I truly can say she is my go too , we all dislike paying for insurance, and or unexpected increases sometimes , but when you have someone like Asia who is just good at her job but truly cares about whomever she is talking to/ helping out , you not only feel comfortable and protected with the service you pay for but you will feel secure , cared for and happy to make you future payments . Asia deserves not only a raise, but I truly hope she receives more just a few good reviews she really is a outstanding, caring and dependable person who wants to hear every customer out with all and every comment, concern , and problem that needs to be addressed . So to summarize this review i will continue to stick with State Farm for as long as they continue to have my back. To Lydia , her team , Colin , Mary Ann and of course Asia thank you all ! You guys are the best !"

Providing you with reliable service and genuine support through life’s changes is exactly what we strive for every day. Thank you again for your loyalty and trust. We look forward to continuing to taking great care of all your insurance needs! - Lydia Harville, State Farm Insurance Agent, Santa Cruz, CA"
