Avatar Insurance Reviews ( 250 )

  1. BY FAR THE WORST INSURANCE COMPANY THAT I HAVE EVER DEALT WITH. DO NOT BE FOOLED BY THE 5 STAR RATINGS. I AM A REAL CLIENT. EVEN 1 STAR RATING IS TOO HIGH FOR AVATAR INS. I had EPIC Insurance company and this company took over Epic’s …

  2. I would give them a huge zero if that was an option. Had hurricane damage to our home from Irma. Claim filed October 12 still have not heard a word. No adjuster, No Call, Absolutely Nothing. I sat on hold for over two hours just too file …

  3. This is the absolute WORST insurance company. They are a complete scam and will take all of your money. We have been dealing with them for TEN MONTHS and NO ONE will return our calls. Nothing has been resolved because they literally will …

  4. Do not be tricked by good service early on. When you are in the thick of getting your home repaired they do not have your back. They send out unqualified people and do not stand behind you. Eventually they get harder and harder to reach until they leave you hanging with shoddy unfinished work.

  5. Kenyattae was a great help in getting me set up in their system. It was taken care of with the first call and she followed it up a second call to make sure I had no problems.

  6. Here it is December and we still haven’t heard a word one back from Avatar Insurance since we filed a claim after Hurricane Irma! Nothing at all, and this was already after we had trouble getting an adjuster out here as is! It is so beyond time to discuss this issue with someone other than the BBB!!

  9. Ryan Reyes stopped by the office last week for a meeting. He was extremely informative and professional. I look forward to building our agency’s relationship with Avatar now.

  10. THE ABSOLUTE WORST! Find a different insurer. We put in a claim and its been over 3 months of no responses from either the claims manager (Noel) or his supervisor (Doha). We have called, emailed, called, left voicemails. NOTHING! They have been taking our money for the insurance and when we need them they ghosted us.

  11. Where to begin. Like so many others who were effected by Irma, we filed a claim with Avatar. It took them over a month to get someone out here to take photos of all the property damage. It has been another 4 weeks from the date the guy came …

  12. Ricardo was awesome! I had an issue with the system and could not change something on a Mortgage change and he took care of it for me and sent me the documents. I could not have asked more from Ricardo. Exceptional service!!

    emailing my Homeowner Declaration document. She stayed with me until it arrived to my inbox.

  24. Have not had a claim yet, but my request for any information has been fast and thanks to David Delgado for being friendly and providing me with the paperwork I needed instantly

  29. We have been an agency representing Avatar for some time now and our marketing rep, Ryan Reyes, has always been 100% helpful and handles all our questions. Thank you Ryan, we do appreciate you!

  30. Customer service person David was very helpful. One thing that could be improved is the electronic communication, as in the ability to customize email payment reminders.

  31. I filed a claim due to plumbing leak inside wall. it was a non stop frustration dealing with Avatar. claim was eventually paid to me but I am unable to finish repairs because of grossly INSUFFICIENT payment received.

  37. Kenyatta was helpful and called back as promised. But the company took forever to reissue a check they sent incorrectly. Im not going to give 5 stars for employees pushing to go leave good reviews with their names. She was helpful, but the …

  38. Tiffany and Darsha do so many training webinars and they do a great job of covering all of the pertinent info we need to know and answering questions and they do it all rather quickly.

  39. I had an issue that needed immediate attention and I feel fortunate to have had my phone call be handled by David Lautermilch . He went above and beyond in making sure I had all the information that I needed and also resolved an issue that …

  40. Terrible Company. Gave me only a 20 cancellation notice because my barrel tile roof had some tiny chips from it getting pressure cleaned every few years. If you have a barrel tile roof don’t even bother insuring with them. Do yourself a favor stay away from Avatar.

  41. My experience with Avatar was not good. A clause in my policy (which I was not aware of) is a “right to repair”. This means that the adjuster uses contracted companies to do the work and I would have no say about who would complete the …

  42. Terrible insurance company, we can’t wait to change when it’s up. Our experience with them after hurricane Irma has been awful. The adjuster came mid September, and then every EVERY time we call to find out what is going on, he’s “on the …

  56. Patti McKenzie rocks! She is the consummate professional. As most P&C agents will attest, writing business in today’s marketplace is not easy. Patti does all she can to alleviate many of the roadblocks. She communicates clearly, …

  57. Bought out EPIC. Never filed a claim before. Their adjustors purposely low ball estimates. The roofer they​ sent out made my wife feel completely uncomfortable in the house alone. They never return calls. If they do get back to you it’s​ …

  58. Avatar, particularly their customer service representative Velisha Young, were very helpful to me after Hurricane Irma. There was a problem with my reimbursement check and Velisha helped me while we tried to correct the problem. She was very patient and contacted me personally to ensure the problem was being corrected.

  59. I made an insurance premium payment over the phone 8/31/18. Marcel was the representative I spoke with and he handled my business quickly and efficiently. I appreciated his friendly, efficient manner.

  65. Kenyatta processed an agent of record change within hours of my email request. She made the documentation available on the company website so that my new client could pay the policy premium promptly.

  66. Martin Soto was an absolute pleasure to work with. He made the process of reporting the claim easy and fast. He was also able to answer all questions pertaining to the newly reported claim. Will definitely like to work with him once again.

  67. They are the worst. I had a claim from roof damage from a storm, adjuster came out they said nothing was wrong with it. But same week I received a cancellation letter, for risk. If nothing was wrong with my roof how am I at risk!!! A roofer …

  68. Missy has become the one person I can rely on to help me with any claim I am working on. She is very personable and polite. Not to mention she will always return phone calls and emails in a timely fashion. If she does not know the answer she will direct me to someone that does.

  72. I would give zero stars if I could. I was informed my 10 – 15 year old roof would have to be replaced or they would not renew me. I know of many people who’s roofs are much older and have never had this happen. They are looking for excuses to get rid of insurers in Florida. Beware!

  73. I requested an address update for our account and Olivia responded quickly and let me know the request had been taken care of. It is wonderful to know when you can really count on someone. Thank you.

  74. This company just called me to inform that it is out of business I have a claim since 01/07/2021call all the time Justin Anderson claim manager all time he told me we are almost ready but now I haven’t roof , I haven’t insurance if someone …

  76. Where to start? I had Epic insurance that was bought out by Avatar. I was never notified until after IRMA, I had fence down and roof damage. Well I called my insurance and found out I was now with Avatar and they raised my rate $ 600.00. …

  77. Terrible for roofing insurance. Had two certified roofers come to my home both state I had wind and hail damage. Avatar sent their own roofing company and they didn’t even look for hail. My roofer even asked them if they were going to mark …

We recently received an agency visit from Ryan Reyes and feel confident that our relationship with this company will grow in the near future because of it.

  88. As an Agent Assistant, I called in to Avatar and had the pleasure of dealing with Olivia Davis, who was very helpful in resolving an Agent of Record Issue in just one day. She was helpful, pleasant and professional.

  89. Missy was quite friendly, and given that the original person I spoke to dropped the ball & did not process my claim, she went over and above to process it immediately after I re-sent the information. Missy was the most helpful, kind & efficient Avatar employee I have spoken to about my claim.

  92. Worst company ever. I called them the day after Irma. Had to call them back a week later since I never heard from an adjuster and was told the adjuster would get back to me with a claim #. Nothing from any adjuster so called again the …

  94. The only reason I gave it a 1 is because they didnt have 0. Customer service is horrible. They send out their people to look at damage and their contractors. It’s a joke. Contractors never show up and the “experts” that come out to see …

    Great asset to your company!

  96. Patty is a very knowledgeable Underwriter with Avatar. Always finding a way to help me sell another policy. A great people person and always happy to answer any questions I ask. I learned alot from Patty at Avatar.

  97. Horrible company to deal with, if you have them as your insurance change them fast, if you have an active claim I suggest to already start seeking legal council and keep track of EVERY conversation you have with them. The adjuster we had …

  98. Zero stars… I filed a claim September 16, sat on hold for 47 minutes October 9 to beg for an adjuster to come look. He was very thorough, and left my home. Since then, I call a few times a week, after excessive hold times, No one offers …

  120. We’ve been so pleased with Avata, we have been clients for years now. Helped us with Hurricane Irma issues and with a landlord making an unreasonable insurance request on the lease.

We called a roofing company to come and check it out and Avatar turned down claim just because we were not using one of their contractors. They have done this twice. I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone. No longer have insurance with them.

  144. Anamaria Jaramillo did an outstanding job of providing great service in a prompt, professional manner! This encourages me as an agent to place more business with Avatar as her help was excellent!

  145. Avatar Insurance has been a wonderful company from day one. Any questions or concerns have been promptly addressed by the manager, Andrew Roberts. He has been very knowledgeable and willing to assist in any way, which is rare these days. Thanks Andrew & Avatar!

  146. As a homeowner it’s important to have insurance that you can depend on in a time of disaster. Avatar Home Insurance is not your choice. My home and the street I live on was in the direct path of a tornado earlier this year. Damages were …

  147. I am grateful to partner with such a great company! Ryan Reyes has been such a great resource! He’s polite, answers all my questions and is knowledgeable in his field. Looking forward to a wonderful new year with Avatar! Such a great company!

  148. Avatar has been more than helpful in assisting us with our hurricane claim. We have often heard horror stories about filing claims, but it was a very positive experience for us. Each rep I worked with(Paris, Missy, Possan, and Chuck(GC)) …

  149. I work for a public adjusters company, and we had trouble getting a homeowner’s adjusters worksheet through to our email and Marcel Monroy followed up with me until he made sure I received it. He called me and he responded very quickly. He …

  150. Spoke with Chris M. today, and he was very patient in assisting me with my policy changes. Offered to wait on the line until the email confirmation came through, and followed -up promptly to make further adjustments. Their service is A+++, and they will make sure you are taken care of. Highly recommended.

  151. I work with lots of take out companies, as an agent I want to congratulate Kenyatta E for her excellent service, very prompt, she gave me peace of mind and executed what I needed in hours! What an exceptional young lady, anyone is lucky to have her on their team!!! Thank you for a memorable experience !!!!

  152. We had a burglary at our house and I thought dealing with the insurance company was going to be awful. Just the opposite. Dealing with Jean-Luc at Avatar was amazing. He responded immediately every time I contacted him, went above and …

  153. I was pretty fed up with my previous insurance company (do not go there), so I switched to Avatar Insurance. It came highly recommended by many of my friends. That’s when I met my agent Diane! She was very helpful in assisting me and finding me the very best rate. Now I recommend Avatar to all of my friends!!!!!

  154. I’m an insurance agent in Sarasota and Ryan Reyes is our rep. He does a great job every time he comes by to visit to go over coverage’s and features that set Avatar apart from other carriers. My son actually has Avatar and they took care of him after Irma even though the state was pretty stretched with claims. He was happy!

  155. When I contacted Avatar about questions in regard to our claim I reached Missy and continued to request her for follow up questions. She acted promptly to my question about the $2000 payment we were told we would received because of our …

  156. I don’t recommend Avatar, go with a name brand instead. I was especially disappointed with the claims manager Leticia Rodriguez. I spoke with her three times for only a few minutes each time. She offered little explanation as to why the …

  157. I would like to thank Dasha Prikhodko from Avatar Insurance company for great service. I was pleasantly surprised with her professional attitude and knowledge as well as very reasonable amount of premium offered. I had previous bad …

  158. This was my First time I filed a claim for a loss.
    Everyone I spoke with was responsive, knowledgeable and communicated clearly the process and also followed up.
    Excellent service.

  159. I reached out to the marketing department today and Olivia Davis was great, in less than 10 minutes I had reports I requested. She was very efficient, courteous and professional.

  166. Update regarding Owner Response: That information is false. Once Avatar invokes the “right to repair” provision, there is NO WAY out of it. Customers are absolutely FORCED into it. I’m not saying positive or negative regarding it, just that …

  167. Updated from one star to two. I was mislead at multiple points during my claim by multiple people. Contact with me was next to non-existent if I didn’t initiate it. The only reason for the second star is that after me spending many hours …

  168. Diane goes above and beyond for the customers. She helped me and my partner insure my home and cars the right way. She was really clear about the coverage’s and knowledgeable when she recommended options for us to chose. I can sleep at …

  169. It is a pleasure to partner with Avatar Insurance and I give them great praise when talking to my clients about them. Ryan Reyes our territory manager is an outstanding professional. I had an issue come up 3 weeks ago on a binding process. …

  170. I love working with Avatar Insurance. A company with high standards in service. Especially with Ryan Reyes who has demonstrated to our agency the commitment of service and attention. He is willing to help in every situation that comes our way and we do not have to wait since he looks for the right and immediate solution.

  171. I am blown away by the amazing customer service we received from this company. Dragan our adjuster was at our house on a Saturday within 45 minutes of receiving our phone call. By Monday our claims specialist Missy had the entire claim …

  172. The good and bad of Avatar. First and foremost you will find out quickly that Avatar is a right to repair insurance company. What does this mean? It means that if you are busy like myself and you want to hire an adjuster to get you the …

  173. Missy was amazing in helping my wife with her issue. Missy was nice, friendly and took the time to let my wife go through everything and then she explained the procedures and how things work. She made the wife very happy with choosing …

  177. This review is regarding the service I received from the employee Kenyatta Esau. I tried to have an issue taken care of for some time to no avail. When I spoke with Kenyatta she was friendly, helpful and dedicated to get the job done. She’s amazing! Thank you for your assistance Kenyatta.

  178. I had some issues with a claim after Irma but understood that they were slammed. Had another issue this past week and have been dealing with Missy. She has completely turned my opinion around! She is responsive, friendly and knows her …

  179. Kenyatta was fantastic regarding my service needs. She replied promptly, offered me even more than what I needed and continued to follow-up until the issue was completely resolved. …

  180. Kenyatta has been very friendly and helpful. I have had to call several times over the past few months trying to resolve an issue and, while I am still waiting on the issue to be resolved with the claims analyst, I have had the pleasure of working with Kenyatta several times. She is always professional, courteous, very helpful.

  181. If I could give negative stars I would. This company has done nothing but take advantage of myself and other home owners. I’ve read a majority of the reviews below and the ones that are five stars are not an accurate representation of how …

  182. I recently spoke with Juan and he demonstrated EXCELLENT customer service during the entire call ! He was very polite and very knowledgeable and is a great asset to the company! I hope that the next time I call I get to speak with him again , very easy call and got what I needed in a quick , timely manner .

  190. Avatar Insurance is an awesome company to work along side with and write for as an agent. They are always very competitive with their rates across the board. Also Andrew, our marketing rep, always keeps us up to date with what is going on …

  191. Might I start saying this is the worst company ever to deal with! We had a hurricane roll through my area in September 2017. I have a barrel style tile roof there, was visible lifting on my roof from the hurricane. Avatar went as far as …

  192. I was referred to Avatar by my property manager who is also a client of Avatar and I’m really glad she did. Dasha took such good care of me from the first phone call/email I made. I had a lot of questions about rental property and Dasha …

  193. Once again I needed help with a DB Statement and access to retrieving this. Olivia responded immediately to my EM and provided me with the necessary information. I got want I needed within a matter of minutes. Awesome customer service for her! Thank you Olivia!

  194. Web site shows a 24 hour response number to call in a claim. Nobody picks up the line. Nobody returns voice mails. Why publish a “24 hour response number” if you don’t have anyone working the phones? Of course the plumber and water remediation people could use some guidance, but I cannot contact your company. Unsatisfactory.

  195. Every time I need something Avatar has been quick to respond. David Delgado helped me today and within 5 minutes I had what I needed in my email. He was very professional and polite.

  196. My home was damaged from Hurricane Michael. I am so impressed with how the team at Avatar helped with such a stressful time. Maria was so professional and courteous. She and the team in the claims department are a great asset to the …

  197. Great experience with Avatar Marketing Team today… needed to set up commission direct deposit and the response from Olivia Davis was fast and courteous. I really appreciate the prompt reply and the offer to set up direct deposit were both greatly appreciated.

  198. I spoke with service rep. David Delgado today about some concerns with my policy. David was very professional and was able to handle my problems right away. I’ve been lucky and have not had to file a claim so I can’t speak about the claims department. Praying that I don’t ever have too either.

  199. I needed a PDF version of my Homeowners Policy and requested it from Dave Delgado via a telephone call. Dave had the policy emailed to me before we finished what was a cordial and pleasant conversation! Top notch service!!!

Thank you Olivia for going above and beyond and thank you for a superior customer service experience. Keep doing what you are doing!!

  210. We purchased Avatar insurance for our new condo, and experienced a slab leak a few months after moving in. Our experience with Avatar was horrible. Most of the minimal communication from them involved “that’s not covered…we won’t pay for …
