Meg Vincent – State Farm Insurance Agent

I’ve used Meg Vincent and her State Farm office for over 10 years — for rental insurance, to condo insurance once I finally purchased a home and now for a rental property too. She’s always been (and her staff) great at helping to explain what types of coverage/​amounts I should hold and putting some of the insurance lingo in plain English. I will say, I’ve never had a claim (knock on wood) so I can’t comment on that type of experience. But all in all my experiences have been super positive for this long time customer.

Years after writing my initial review of Meg I’m still enamored with her. I’d recommend her any day of the week.
Something to think of — just get renter’s insurance! It’s cheap and will save you if you ever need it. Trust me, you don’t think you do until you come home one day to a pile of smoldering memories because your neighbor across the hall burnt the building down.

I did not have a good experience with Meg Vincent and would recommend you give your business to someone else.
I purchased State Farm insurance from Meg for our auto, home, renters and liability policies. Although Suzanne was very professional and got back to me in a timely manner, my experience with Meg was just the opposite. I called today to cancel one of my policies and Meg was extremely curt and rude on the phone; when I needed clarification on which policy she was referring to she basically barked a response to me, which frankly made me decide to cancel all the plans I have with her. Anyone that rude does not deserve to get my business.

Meg and Suzanne were helpful with getting a competitively priced rental insurance policy. The process was quick and easy. I haven’t had any claims experience yet, and am certainly hoping that that continues.

I have had nothing but aggrevation working with the Meg Vincent agency. Her customer service is horrible and she cops an attitude. I highly suggest seeking out another agent in the area who understands the service part of a customer service industry. Keep looking. Insurance is supposed to be there in the «just in case» happens. And when it does, Meg seems to go out of her way to put up every obstacle she can to prevent you from getting the info or claims due you.

I had Meg as an agent when my car got rear-​ended. The insurance information I received from the the other party was incorrect. I honestly don’t know a whole lot about the whole process of filing a claim… especial in the case of the other party’s information being wrong… and called to ask for more infomation. My questions weren’t answered on the phone so I went the the business myself to get a better grasp on what was expected of me and the time line of getting my car fixed and compensated for the auto body work. They knew the insurance company of the guy who rear-​ended my car and his name, I guess I was wondering if I was suppose to look into contacting his insurance company or if that was something my insurace agent would do. Meg was extremely rude, she was vague on her answers, she even said she had other things to do than to look any further into my claim. I left her office very disappointed and frusterated. I ended up having to pay for the damage out of my pocket ($ 500!). I switched agents within the next few days.

I had just purchased a new computer and had read a lot of great things online about how State Farm covers computers separately under Personal Insurance plans with no deductible and a low yearly rate.
So I found Meg on
and sent her an email via the website asking for more info on the options. I didn’t hear back for 2 weeks.
I followed up with a phone call today, and after being told that homeowners insurance already covers computers, I asked for more information about the specific plan for computers.
She immediately said, «I won’t be taking you up on that opportunity.»
Confused, I pretty much said, «Umm, okay?»
«Goodbye,» she replied, and hung up on me.
So much for «Like a Good Neighbor.» Unless your neighbor ignores you and hangs up on you.

I just moved to Chicago and had to transfer my State Farm renters insurance. I emailed Meg on a Sunday, and she got back with me first thing Monday morning. WIthin 48 hours everything was taken care of. The most efficient insurance setup I’ve ever experienced, and she is incredibly professional and friendly. Highly recommend!

Suzanne was great! I called her for my condo and ring insurance, and she was able to get me in a quote in minutes. The prices were really competitive — way cheaper than Allstate. She also quoted me several options and was always helpful with answering questions and going over all of the available choices. Suzanne made sure to follow up, and when we ended up going with her the paperwork was done completely on her end and taken care of in minutes. Great experience!

I needed new renter’s insurance. A friend recommended State Farm so I went with it. Filled out an app online with all the basics and then sent the app to an actual office to be reviewed and finalized. Meg’s office picked it up and voila, in two days I was insured with coverage that is affordable and exactly what I wanted. Both Meg and her assistant, Suzanne, were easy to deal with, efficient, and friendly. I guess State Farm really is a good neighbor after all.
