Texas Farm Bureau is the largest Texas-based insurance provider of comprehensive insurance. They sell not just auto insurance, but also homeowners, farm and ranch, life and health insurance. The company itself is active in promoting and voicing the concerns of the Texas farm community. They are headquartered in Waco, Texas but offices can be found throughout the State of Texas, particularly in smaller communities. They do business as Texas Farm Bureau Underwriters, Texas Farm Bureau Casualty Ins. Co., Farm Bureau County Mutual Ins. Co. of Texas, and Texas Farm Bureau Mutual Ins. Co. They are not related to Farmers Insurance.
Texas Farm Bureau Claims
Some of the most common consumer complaints on the online review websites are that the adjusters can be difficult to reach when you are filing a Texas Farm Bureau claim. They are a relatively small insurance company serving over 300,000 customers statewide. Since Texas is a large state and customers are spread out through the rural areas, you can imagine that the adjusters are busy keeping up with large areas. It is not surprising that adjusters for Texas Farm Bureau’s claims may seem hard to reach at times to someone who is struggling to get back on the road and/or back to work.
Insurance Companies and Delays in Paying Claims
When any insurance company delays paying a claim, they are making money for the insurance company. Your claim is simply one out of tens if not hundreds of thousands being handled at any given moment. The longer payment of those claims is delayed, the more interest the company earns off the premiums that were collected to cover those claims. What this means for the claimant is—your interest in getting a speedy settlement and getting on with your life is in direct conflict with their interest in delaying payment.
