I purchased the platinum coverage ($1500) for my new camper. After four months on the road the water pump failed, several interior pipes were leaking, and the metal bracket supporting my black/greywater outlet snapped. I found a repairman and asked him to call Compass and get approval for the repairs. Compass denied 3/4 of the claim (everything except the water pump), meaning I would be paying $650 of the $800 bill. I called the insurance company to ask why they had denied several repairs that were clearly covered ... read more

Compass Insurance has unremarkably incompetent agents actively working for them who will immediately put you on hold and send you to someone else once they realize they've messed up. One of their agents allowed me to put my car in storage when I later found out I wasn't supposed to and I was then excessively billed as they seemingly took no sense of responsibility on the matter at all. The only good thing I can say is their management staff member Kacey was very helpful. I highly recommend taking your insurance needs to a p... read more

I had them for about 8 years, they were always so kind and helpful. My policy for auto was always on auto withdrawal as monthly payments deducted from my bank. My bank account info was unfortunately stolen this fall and a fraud alert was issued. It was awful and terrifying and I had to close everything down and change bank accounts. It caused the auto withdrawal of my insurance payments to drop off, I didn’t even realize because it had been automatic for so long. As soon as compass called me I paid in full for the 1 month... read more

We are not happy with how they answer you request for finding you a lower fee Insurance carrier to Chang e from what we have with them. I talked to a male agent and asked him to find us a new company with lower rates. It took over two weeks before I called them and a woman said she'd see who it was and call back. She did a couple days later, but said that Woverine Mutual was the cheapest and their rate went up. So we are paying a higher premium. I also don't like how they came up with giving the difference from a paid policy... read more

I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. Having someone drive illegally and not putting the active on the policy when they were told over the phone, email and txt that were good to go. Then on top of that.... never got a letter, email, phone call, etc to tell me to renew my policy? Instead they just cut me off. Driving around with NO insurance and health insurance who I got thru them was cancelled to without me knowing. Communication here is awful! Everyone I’ve pointed in their direction has had NOTHING but bad things hap... read more

Business response:

Chelsea it sounds like there are several moving pieces to your account. I'm trying to pull up your name in our system but I cant find you. Could it be under a different name or were you with another agency? I can empathize with your frustration that you were cancelled. Compass represents 17 different insurance companies. I would be happy to place your insurance with one of our other companies and you are always welcome to contact me directly regarding your account. My direct dial line is 616-965-3743. Jack H, CEO

Imcompantant, cowardly company that won't help there own client. All about them, they act like they're never at fault yet they take ur money just fine. Terrible experience from start to end.

I have 3 policies with Compass, 2 AAA and 1 Wolverine Mutual. I was quoted $799 for homeowners of a home purchase policy (AAA) thru compass on a 480sf house in GR. When I questioned the price she responded it just must be a minimum they charge! I then went to another AAA agent in GR and was quoted $390 for exact identical coverages!! Buyer beware of the agents at this insurance agency. I also reported them to Better Business Bureau 

Business response:

Ted, I will make sure I look into this for you. The AAA rates should be identical. I apologize that there was an error but I am committed to make sure we make it right. Jack Hoedeman
