Everquote
reviews and complaints

As someone deeply invested in finding the best insurance options, I must share a cautionary tale about Everquote, Inc. The promises of convenience and savings quickly unravel in a web of dissatisfaction and frustration. Customers report a barrage of unwanted calls, misleading information, and a lack of transparency. It's a stark reminder that not all that glitters is gold in the realm of insurance comparison services. Proceed with caution, for the road with Everquote may lead to more headaches than solutions.

I checked that i did not want home insurance and never indicated that i wanted anyone to call me. But my phone was ringing off the hook before I even got any rates. SPAM calls now for days. DON"T ENTER YOUR INFO unless you like getting harassed by telemarketers. They have a privacy guarantee on their site which is BS because every caller had my info and i never authorized it.

I am getting large amounts of unsolicited spam email from this "company" via a third party known as Quick Cloud Computing. They do not have a legitimate website and use *** to spam. There address is a drop box at the UPS store. I have sent several Unsubscribe notices each time I get spam email but they do not unsubscribe me. Instead it looks like they are selling my email to other email spammers.

I have not looked at all for auto insurance in the last 2 years and suddenly I am getting bombarded with calls from every auto insurer saying they got my information from Everquote. I have never heard of Everquote, nor filled out any form. I went to their website to try to contact them and the phone number on there is useless. I need to be removed from their system completely but it seems like that's impossible.

I NEVER asked for their insurance quote, I was on a 3rd party site and all of a sudden not only am I getting PHONE CALLS from them I'M SEEING *** ADVERTISEMENTS with the town I live in and the exact make/model and details of my car with their name as the sponsor! It feels like A COMPLETE violation of privacy! Considering I don't have a common vehicle it feels like I'm targeted. Absolutely disgusted. It's sick.

I receive this email today but i dont knownwho this person ls but use my email address . Ms., Application is Finished*** here. I recalculated your requested auto coverage application for your 2011 *** at *** and recommend the following choices:*** Ms. *** Progress: 100% *** you for using our service.This confirmation email was sent to"

I wanted a quote for health care and I get connected to Denise a "licensed" health agent, and I am asking questions wanting to know how I can get coverage on certain things and Denise is talking over me, being super rude and talking down to me. Mind you I am asking questions because I don't work in insurance and Denise was extremely condescending and disrespectful in the way she was talking to me. Like talking down to me. EVERQUOTE you might want to reconsider who you have as agents because you lost my business and your creditability.

they are a fraud. you won't find a better deal than your current insurance carrier. only by maybe a couple of dollars. they make themselves out to be a bunch of college experts. when truthfully i wasted my valuable time for nothing. i had to enter my ss number. if i ever find out my personal information is given out. they will be speaking to my attorney. the case will be filed in my state. they will pay all expenses and will travel here and explain it to a judge. then they will be entered on a *** list and end up a trophy! bunch of illiterate punks.

Promises to compare insurance companies through something called the ***. Turns out after they have captured alll your personal information, they then send that information to many insurance companies (Allstate was the first one to call me) and then through their spam of my information, I start getting calls from many insuance companies. I am upset that they didn't do as promised -- compare on line (like Airline comparisons are done) and let me decide who I want to contact. God knows now how many companies have my personal information, when it will be hacked, how much will be sold to who knows who.

Never asked for insurance quote from these people. I get harassed with multiple phone calls and texts from them a day. I tell them I didn't request insurance quote from them and they just text or call back from a different number later or the next day. They don't even have my correct name and it changes by the day, I continually tell them they have the wrong number, but continue to get texts and calls. I placed my phone number on the do not call list several years ago but that doesn't seem to do much. I have responded STOP on the texts, but they just text from a different number. I just want the unwarranted solitications to end.

They called my cell phone while I was at work 3 times from different numbers in the span of 5 minutes, in addition to texting me from yet another number. They were asking for someone that was not me. I answered the 3rd call and had some impolite words for the agent at the other end. I can be kind to cold callers, but something this annoying does not deserve a polite response. They spoof their number, sometimes making it look like a local number is calling you. This is a similar tactic to a typical phone scammer. The company must br training their employees to do this as several reviews have similar information. Each employee following this should be held liable and fined.

I was shopping for car insurance. I tyoed in geico in *** and somehow unkowingly ended up on everquotes website. I went through the car insurance roitine questionnaire. This site gave me not indication that it was someone else and not geico. The "consent to marketing calls and emails" did not pop up until AFTER I hit the grt quote button. As soon as I saw that dirty trick I backed out. Next thing I know Im getting blasted with phone calls. In less than a 3 minute window they called from three different phone numbers. The ONLY option they gave me was to angry tell the phone caller to loose my numbet. This was marketing by deception and beyond angering with th pesistent unwanted phie calls.

shame on me for NOT researching quotes on the *** company, Everquote! #1 within MINUTES of completing an online questionnaire, 15 calls came thru: NO msg & upon calling them back ... I asked for name of company ... Asian voice I could NOT understand ... " ... we need to make sure who is calling so we can transfer you to insurance company ... blah, blah ..." WHEN I ASKED "are you a broker, working on commission for these companies ...?" answer: mam I do not know, I'm here to refer you to an insurance agent ...ALL THESE #'s & names - IF I find them - will be reported to FTC, *** along with Telecom provider to FCC ... which BTW - ALL CALLS telecom provider is *** ONVOY LLC which generates ***% of ALL FAKE, FRAUD SPAM CALL!@!

False advertising, unethical practices. Their marketing says they provide quotes from multiple companies, but the only thing you get after filling out their forms is a bunch of links to *** or ***, etc, where you have to type out all your info again. EverQuote makes money by selling your information to other companies. That is, in addition to not providing you with insurance quotes, EverQuote will share your private info to other companies who will waste more of your time by bombarding your email with spam, blowing up your phone and mailing trash to your house. Businesses with unethical practices like this should face bigger penalties and jail time for CEOs. It's dishonest, predatory and 100% of their profits are dependent on the fact that most consumers are too stupid to understand their business model.

I entered info on this site because my current insurance bundling is complicated and I just wanted to know whether the auto part of it was in excess of what other companies might offer independently. This company promises online quotes, but that just doesn't happen. After submitting tons of info online I got inundated with responses about all kinds of supposed "quotes" then had to fill out more forms with much of the same info again. Even after that there were all sorts of links to "quotes" that really just connected me to phone numbers for agents of various insurance companies. I could have called all of these companies myself if I wanted to spend hours on the phone with insurance agents. Bottom line is that this is a scam. EverQuote does not provide online quotes, and they are not even connecting customers to companies that offer online quotes. They are wasting your time if you are a potential customer, and if you are a legitimate agency you are probably paying them money for nothing.

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.

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.

Ever Quote called 10 times in the span of 15 minutes, from various phone numbers. The first call didn't identify as Ever Quote so I picked up the unknown number call, and no one was there. Less than 1 minute later, the barrage of spam calls followed, all identified as Ever Quote or Telemarketer, alternating. I have blocked every number, but they should be fined for this type of assault, because this IS HARASSMENT. I am on the DO NOT CALL opt out list ... This is illegal and unwarranted. It almost feels spiteful like someone's doing it on purpose. I have no idea what this company is, and have not requested or applied for quotes of any kind from anyone in many many years.(Each call in the picture represents several separate calls that have been grouped. My call log just groups subsequent calls from the same number, until I blocked it, and a new one would call)

EverQuote, who also appears to. be operating under the dba Provide Insurance/Provide Auto, insists on sending spam emails despite no indication of how they acquired my email address or my consent in the first place. Furthermore, they offer no "opt-out" feature in their emails, which goes against international email laws (yes, THAT IS ILLEGAL). I can see from other complaints that they make zero effort to remedy the issues that they cause or even acknowledge them. If I continue to receive emails from them or any companies associated with them and the emails do not allow me to unsubscribe, I will be suing all related companies and have them charged with illegal emailing practices. I work in marketing and advertising, I know the laws and regulations. I will take every legal action I can as well as do anything in my power to expose these companies for the scams that they are.

Ever quote, dba with other names as noted in other posts here, has repeatedly harassed and contacted me via phone. I have not consented to their services. I have asked to be removed multiple times and in many ways. Their responses have ranged from hanging up on me to saying they would and calling back a few minutes later to try again. I have received 4 calls from them in the last hour alone. I'm on the do not call registry. This is an insane practice where they harass random people who's data they've purchased. Remedy seeking: I would like all of my information to be removed from them and all of their associated businesses/partners. I would like written confirmation that they have done so. I would like them to provide to me the name and info of the business that sold them my information. I expect not to further be called or harassed by any of their partners/businesses/subsidiaries/etc.

This is a *** law office and many of our office phone numbers and conference room phone numbers are being bombarded with repetitive sales calls from different phone numbers. I called these numbers and they are all from Everquote. I asked a representative to remove all the numbers for our office from the call list and was told that is not possible only the number from which the call is coming from can be removed. Told the representative that today 12/14 this company repetitively disrupted a meeting in a conference room by continuously calling the phone number and asked for it to be removed. The representative said I must call from that particular phone to get the number removed. Told him I would be filing a complaint. This is outrageous harassment and a very unprofessional company! I should be able to provide a list of numbers and have them all removed from the call list.

I am a resident of *** and have a report to you regarding a crazy/nasty/greedy auto-insurance A company advertising that they have very cheap auto-insurance policy. I am stupid and curious to open up their advertisement and filling their questions. In the middle of filling the form, I sensed something not right and stop doing. But they said that it is enough. They gave me a quote, but I told them that I am no longer interested. I asked them to stop sending me email and keep advertising my name and car (year, maker) in the new tab (news source). It is a kind of harassment and invades people's privacy. It it a wrong way of doing business. Can Complaintsboard.com help me to do anything to stop them? They are too much! Thank You for helping. Their email: ***, Agent: ***, Company address: ***,***, ***, Best Regards, *** 2/19

Everquote keeps receiving online inquiries from someone who uses my phone number. The inquiry is then supposedly verified by Everquote. There has never been any attempt by Everquote to verify the phone number - as that call would have come to me. At any rate, after "verifying" the inquiry, my phone number is then shared to numerous insurance agents who then start calling. Last week, I received 10 calls in 12 minutes. I have told each insurance agent to stop calling and block my number. I have called Everquote and asked for the same. The phone calls keep coming. I want to find out hear from Everquote what their "verification process" entails before they "sell it" to other insurance agents. If they aren't checking phone numbers then they are selling information they have no right to sell. I want Everquote to permanently block my phone number and mark any inquiry using my phone number as a fraudulent inquiry.

I never contacted this company but they have called me 14 *** today in the last 3 hrs. I have blocked every single number and they keep calling from another extention. I have filed at least 6 complaints thru my phone carrier but it seems there is nothing they can do *** this company is STILL calling! *** answered the phone several ***. I've asked them twice not to call anymore and I hang up and they CALL RIGHT BACK! I've answered a cpl *** and no one responds. I don't know what's happening or why they train their employees to disregard the customers wishes and go about their marketing and sales in a stalkers ways but even after the first phone calls in 15 minutes I would NEVER use them. Who wants to deal with this? And I'm sure they're the type of company that bugs the c*** out of you until you need help or need to speak to CS and then they'll be *** Please. Stop. Calling. Who else do I need to report you to for this to end?

This company harasses me with unsolicited phone calls numerous times a day. This started on July 20, 2022, when I received 8 calls from them from different numbers within 1-2 mins of each call! I have never had any business dealings or contact with this company. Although I am on the Do Not Call Registry, I receive 6+ unsolicited phone calls from this company from various numbers (EACH PHONE NUMBER calls 6+ times a day in succession). They also spoof their numbers to show it's coming from places such as State Farm or Mercury Auto TR. I called two of the numbers back from a different phone, and it just rings. When I answered a few of the calls, I received the same computer-generated message asking me to press 1 for voicemail, and press 2 to send a text. No company name or person's name was announced or displayed. However, I installed the Hiya app, and it shows that all these numbers are coming from Everquote. I have filed a complaint with FCC and reported them to Hiya, but Everquote continues to harass me.

EverQuote provided my personal information to insurance companies about a car I do not own. I did not furnish my information to EverQuote, nor search for car insurance about a car I do not own.When I attempted to contact EverQuote about this concern and get my personal information expunged from their records, EverQuotes customer service department did not answer phone calls. The only way to speak to someone is through a consumer line to purchase insurance. As one can imagine, this does not go well as the consumer line is not for customer service issues, so I have no way of contacting this company about how and why they have my information and why it is being provided to other companies. I asked the supervisor for the Consumer *** to place me on a do not call list and to unsubscribe to emails at EverQuote; however, there is no confirmation about whether or not my information has been removed from EverQuote or if I have been placed on those lists. I do not know what information they still possess or if it is being sold/provided to other entities. This incident and experience are very upsetting; EverQuote has terrible practices and is highly dubious. This is not okay with me.

I am a life Insurance agent and Everquote thru their platform Everqoute Pro said they would provide exclusive and real leads that are interested in Life Insurance. They claimed the leads are generated by consumers going to their website and requesting life insurance information. The first batch of leads for $500 resulted in either disconnected phone numbers, wrong numbers, or consumers who said they never requested anything. When i called support to ask i was told that it doesn't happen over night and you have to keep working the leads. I don't know how you can work leads that have disconnected numbers but ok. Than a few days later they took out another $500 and told me i was told about auto replenishment when i was not and that they will not refund the money but give me a $250 more in leads. Now that they had taken another $500 and wouldn't refund it i started working the new leads. This is when i understood i was getting scammed. 4 leads told me that they filled it out because they would receive a *** gift card. Another couple dozen had wrong phone numbers. 3 had already passed away so there is no way they could've filled out a form online for information. they have taken $1500 and not provided what they promised.

I clicked on an Everquote ad on Instagram yesterday and have not only received 7 calls in less than 24 hours from them but I have had multiple insurance companies email me in that short period of time. I actually went through the process of talking to an Agent of State Farm after having to give all of my information initially and then be asked the same questions several times by several people,listen to music,be in hold etc only to see that the State Farm agent I was connected to had zero information on me and I had to just throw my hands up in the air at that point and totally give up.The moment I hung up with State Farm I got yet another Everquote call ,they are all from people with thick foreign accents I don't understand and who just will not accept "no" for an answer to the point one just has to hang up.I told the last caller I wanted my number taken off their list or I would report them to the *** but he still wanted to "confirm some information "...I hung up but based on the other complaints I am seeing here,I expect more calls and that my information will continue to be sold to anyone and everyone willing to pay to keep harassing me. I want an assurance that my number and other information will be deleted from their list and not sold to anyone else.This is pure and simple harassment.

Back in January , EverQuote provided/sold my data to multiple third-party organization. I typically receive at least two to three calls per business day from these third-party organizations. Back on January 28th, I filed a formal complaint to EverQuote's compliance and also feedback emails, as there is no formal call number to handle compliance related issues on data protection. Unfortunately, there was never any action associated with this complaint. The primary third-party vendor that EverQuote provided/sold my data to is ***, which is the most persistent of the robocallers. Whenever I being to ask to be removed from their call list, they immediately hang up on me. While the *** seems to be the burden of my daily problems, EverQuote broke my trust with deceptive marketing to capture my phone number and did not properly explain that this information would be provided/sold to third-party vendors immediately following the use of EverQuote's service. As I cannot seem to be removed from ***' robocall list, either by asking them directly on the phone or by emailing EverQuote, I felt like it was necessary to file this with the complaintsboard.coms, as I cannot imagine I am the only frustrated person out there who has fallen victim to EverQuotes deceptive marketing tactics to profit off of data collection and selling.

I input my info. Before I even go to the end where it tells me what's supposedly best, I started getting phone calls and text messages from telemarketers trying to sell me insurance. The ones who contacted weren't even the ones Everquote told me were 'best'. They wanted me to spend more time giving all my information over again, which I would have been giving to generic telemarketers before potentially being connected to an actual agent who would need my info again . Then the final page of my 'quotes' was just links to car insurance sites where I'd have to input all my info all over again. Everquote does not fullfill any of its claims. It's only purpose is to collect personal information and sell it to telemarketers. And even the telemarketers are upset because the 'leads' they're getting aren't real. I called Everquotes phone number and it gives options to opt out for phone calls and for emails. I did the phone one, and it said I was already opted out even though I hadn't done that yet. I did the email one and it just went quiet and disconnected me. I tried talking to a person and when he had to deviate from the script, I don't think he had any idea what to do. I tried to go to the Do Not Sell My Info page from the bottom of their site, but it doesn't connect to anything. I had to go into the privacy policy disclosures to get a working link to the Do Not Sell page. I submitted the form and got a pop-up of "We will complete your request in accordance with our policy." The word 'policy' took me back over to the Privacy Policy page. But on there it only mentions ***, and I am not in ***. I want to know, in absolutes, that my information has been REMOVED from their database, in full, and that noone else will be contacting me through any means (email, phone call or text). I am already still receiving calls after supposedly opting out of their 'service'. In general, the company should also not be allowed to display themselves as anything but the information out they are. They should have to display that they are in no way a broker and are simply selling your information to telemarketers. The information being gathered is not even going to the insurance agencies. And the display that on the site that "Your Information is Secure" is completely misleading, because my information was sold before I even completed their forms. I hardly call that secure.
