They just collect all your personal information and do nothing else. NO so-called instant quotes are provided. They just show you links to websites of insurance companies where you might as well have gone yourself. What a waste of time, and on top completely unethical.

I have never contacted this company or any other insurance company in several years, yet for some reason today, October 12,2021, I began receiving tons of calls and text messages about insurance quotes. Clearly spam or a very bad database.

The idea sounds great, right? Enter your data once and get a bunch of insurance quotes, kind of like searching for airline tickets. Not quite. Every link you click takes you to a fresh page where you essentially start from ground zero filling in your information... again. The only actual quotes I got were from high-risk or drive by the mile or ridiculous priced insurance.

SPAMMY site
June 13, 2017

While the site does try to gather insurance ratings for you, you actually open up your phone and email to be bombarded by insurance ads. Within 30 minutes of submitting a quote, I was called 10 times, but 10 different companies and received quotes from the same 10 companies. Then when I got down to business, I was actually not saving any money, because the process doesn't take everything into account.

If you want to get tons of calls and emails, sure otherwise go to insurance providers directly

They are just a referral service and not worth the hassle IMO

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.

Saved $500/year
October 26, 2017

I used this site to see if I could get a better price on insurance. I'd been with Geico, but after speaking with 2 insurance agents was able to lower my bill by $500.

Just got a call from an Indian call center. The agent asked a lot of personal info. I never asked for a quote or contacted them. They're just cold calling. I told him I didn't want to give my name then the guy told me my first and last name. Creepy!

Now the phone keeps ringing. They sold my number as a lead to these insurance agents.

3 calls in 10 minutes!

This company and all of their pseudo names have been bombarding me for weeks with their spam mail. When I contacted the ONLY phone number they have I was told to "unsubscribe" but we know that only means that they will sell my information as an active email. The cowards only hang up when I asked to get a number or email for a corporate executive to stop the harassment. It is no wonder they have one star reviews on every site I have seen them on.

They collect all your personal info (which is they can sell/use to make money even if you don't get anything from them) and then jerk you around sending you from one site to the next. You never get a quote - someone has to call you for that. By that time these clowns have your full name, birth date, address, phone number - everything they need to sell your info. To make money. Don't be dumb like me - stay far away from this bull $#*! site.

Waste of time
December 14, 2017

Nothing but a scam to gather database information and then links to insurance companies where you have to start all over entering the info repeatedly for each company. Absolute waste of my time and left feeling ripped off for personal information.

Annoying
April 7, 2020

Filled out their online questionnaire, and then was given links to 4 sites, which then required additionally information to actually get a quote. Then the phone starts ringing with people wanting me to spend additional time to get quotes. Totally not what was advertised. When I explained this to the everquote rep who called all they did was get off the phone with me. So far I've received no quotes and am super annoyed. Would not recommend this service.

Spam calls
March 7, 2024

I never asked to be called by people offering insurance. Do not fill in any information because they will spam you. I was curious to see how much it would be to insure a car I was looking at.

It refers other sites just like it that compare quotes instead of actually giving you quotes. You're better off finding insurance companies on your own and getting the quotes yourself. On top of not actually being helpful, they will spam call you relentlessly. I have blocked 4 different numbers from them and they are STILL calling me from other numbers. Absolutely ridiculous.

EverQuote is a SCAM
January 30, 2019

EverQuote is nothing more than a way for the insurance companies to get your personal information so they can "pepper" you with ads for insurance quotes. I tried it twice in 18 months and all of the quotes were on average 25% higher than I was currently paying and then the flood gates opened for insurance companies to use my data to continue to harass me through emails trying to sell me high-priced auto insurance.

Don't be fooled. Don't waste you time and don't give EverQuote your personal data

This company emails you non-stop (I never signed up) and doesn't allow you to unsubscribe. They email from different email addresses so you can't block them. My emails are coming from Provide Insurance. This practice is disgusting and the company should be shut down. Useless, annoying, no respect for privacy.

This company is a JOKE! As soon as I clicked on the Next button after giving my phone number, Everquote called me three times within a five minute time frame. This site gives a bad name to legitimate small businesses!

Scam Company
July 18, 2020

This company used my Business Name in their google ads which linked to their site where they sell the leads to other agencies. For the consumer bad and for the unknowing agency that signs up with them they may be selling your own leads to you. Very dishonest at a minimum. My Business name is Highlighted with a link to their quote site in the picture.
