Island Insurance Companies

I enjoyed having them as my insurance provider when I purchased my first vehicle way back when I lived on Oahu. The customer service agents where always courteous and had a very good sense of humor which always gave me the feeling of ease knowing I could count on them whenever I had any changes to my policy. The staff thoroughly explains the benefits of the policy and the cost without billing me for unnecessary things. There was a time when I had to get an appraisal for the damage on my car and they helped me with the paperwork I needed to fill out and they gave me my money in short time.

I had Island Insurance as my main home insurance company for a year after I had stopped my coverage with Allstate. Island Insurance had several local commercials on and they seemed like a very locally oriented insurance company so I decided to give them a chance. I contacted one of their agents who helped me set up enough coverage for my apartment. The prices were pretty competitive compared to Allstate so I stuck with them for over a year. I didn't have any incidences with my apartment so I really have no say about how their claims department is. All in all, a decent local company.

I've been with Island Insurance for around three years. I was able to get the lowest monthly payment from them, after shopping around to Geico, AIG, and State Farm Insurance. The choices in insurance are limited in Hawaii, so I was surprised that a local company could give me the best rates. I really appreciate being able to call them and get someone local, rather than sitting on hold waiting to talk to someone on the mainland that needs me to spell 'Hilo'. When my policy accidentally lapsed, due to my debit card expiring, they immediately sent me a letter and called to alert me. I was able to quickly set up my new card in under a minute and wasn't punished for the lapse. I really like Island Insurance and have strongly recommended to my family members and a few college student friends of mine.
