    <p>We have used Liberty Mutual for the past 4 years
    and they have been nothing less than excellent. Their customer
    service representatives are knowledgeable, always with a
    wonderful demeanor, responsive to the issues I have called
    about, and most of all they listen. Without exception, when I
    hang up, I know that the situation has been resolved. I never
    have had to make a followup call.</p>

    <p>Customer service is always easily reachable. I use
    the phone or email. They are helpful with accidents. One time
    my husband had someone rear end him on the highway. We tried to
    get the other person's insurance cover, but was always a delay.
    Thus kept us waiting to get the vehicle fixed. Liberty Mutual
    had us go ahead and fix the vehicle, they took care of the bill
    and went after the other insurance company afterwards. One
    slight negative is whenever we make an adjustment on the car
    insurance we get new insurance cards mailed out whether or not
    they are needed, I think just adds to the cost of the
    insurance. They offer many ways to pay the bill.</p>

    <p>I would really recommend for Liberty Mutual to take
    better time and deeper thought before they just make any
    decision. There was a miscommunication and I caught the issue,
    but when I called LM, I got the run-arounds and to where the
    phone would ring constantly and you talk about frustrated!!!
    They promptly took fault for a fender bender that was NOT my
    fault. When someone turns left into your car when they turned
    off of their street driveway as your fault is beyond me.
    Technically, I look at it as though they got had. Yes, LM's
    rate have skyrocketed ridiculously-- along with all else, I
    suppose, but I have no other real problem with this company.
    They also just need to make it a little easier to get through
    to someone when we call in to them.</p>

    <p>Up until now I have been satisfied with them, If I
    would have known that I could have gotten cancelled for using
    my towing three times in three years I would have used my AAA.
    They cancelled me for something that I did not know anything
    about. I was with them for three or years. They need to inform
    customers about this.</p>

    <p>When I was shopping for insurance I found Liberty
    Mutual's prices to be better than anywhere else. So, I got in
    and started a policy. Well, we started with 5 vehicles, and now
    we're down to 4 because we sold one. I would expect my premium
    to drop, right? Nope. Went up. LOL. Talked to an agent and he
    had to be one of the most rude, condescending people I've ever
    talked to on the phone. AND, he hung up on me when I was trying
    to get him to review my policy and see if there is anything he
    could do. I very much do NOT recommend these guys. Funny
    commercials, but customer service is pathetic. I'm moving on to
    someone else, even if it costs me more.</p>

    <p>More expensive than everyone else. And they raised
    my rates twice in less than a year. I have a perfect driving
    record going all the way back to when I first got my license at
    16 yrs old. I have no accidents, no tickets, no arrests, and my
    insurance has never lapsed. But, they raised my rates Twice and
    NEVER informed me either time. Sneaky, underhanded, and
    spineless actions. S***** company. When I canceled my policy
    the lady on the phone was so nasty. She even started asking me
    questions that had ZERO barring on my car insurance. It was
    weird and creepy. And she was super disrespectful, even yelled
    at me because I told her I'm switching to Progressive and
    saving $66 a month, and she Yelled at me. Horrible customer
    service, horrible rates, and horrible business practices.</p>

    <p>Buyer beware. When I switched from AAA to try and
    save some money, These folks offered to give me the same
    coverage for less money. Just what I was looking for. Bad idea.
    Three weeks ago I was taking my wife to work and a cell phone
    junky ran a red light and took the front end off my truck. My
    wife was hurt and sent away in an ambulance. To my horror the
    rep that sold me the policy, got me good. I found out I was
    saving money but did not get the proper coverage. All i had was
    liability. No vehicle replacement. No rent a car. not even
    medical. I was paying for the other driver. I was told to pound
    sand. I was lied to for a lousy buck. Just to get me to
    purchase. This is a big lesson learned. People and companies
    just want to get your money. Honesty does not exist in this
    company.</p>

##  <a id="faq"></a>Frequently Asked Questions 

### Should I Buy Liberty Mutual Insurance? 

Liberty Mutual insurance can be a good fit for you if you want to be rewarded for shopping online (they offer an up to 12% discount), or if you need specialty insurance products like Motorcycle or Collectible Car insurance. If you can't find an insurance product through your carrier, it's likely that Liberty Mutual sells that product through their diversified offerings. 

### Is Liberty Mutual Insurance a good insurance company? 

Liberty Mutual is a legitimate insurance company that offers a wide range of policies. Whether they're good for you depends on a wide variety of factors, from whether they offer the best price to how well they'll service a claim for you. Liberty Mutual has a [A "Excellent" rating from AM Best](https://www.libertymutualgroup.com/about-lm/investor-relations/financial-ratings). According to [(AM Best, "AM Best Affirms Credit Ratings of Liberty Mutual Holding Company Inc. and Its Subsidiaries", 2025)](https://news.ambest.com/pr/PressContent.aspx?altsrc=2&refnum=36453), AM Best affirmed the Financial Strength Rating (FSR) of A (Excellent) for Liberty Mutual in September 2025.

However, Liberty Mutual also received an [above average rating on the NAIC Complaint index](https://content.naic.org/cis_consumer_information.htm), which means the company receives more complaints than expected for its size. According to [(U.S. News & World Report, "Liberty Mutual Homeowners Insurance Review for 2026", 2026)](https://www.usnews.com/insurance/homeowners-insurance/liberty-mutual), Liberty Mutual did not qualify for U.S. News ranking of best homeowners insurance because of consistently low consumer survey scores. Additionally, [(Kiplinger, "The Most Popular Car Insurance Companies", 2026)](https://www.kiplinger.com/personal-finance/insurance/most-popular-car-insurance-companies) notes that Liberty Mutual's J.D. Power satisfaction score fell by 140 points since 2022, though it still ranks 4th among insurers. None of these rankings indicate whether Liberty Mutual will be a good fit for you personally, but they do provide insight into their financial stability and popular customer complaints.

| Rating Source | Score | Year | Context |
|--------------|-------|------|---------|
| AM Best Financial Strength | A (Excellent) | 2025 | Strong financial position and capital reserves |
| Better Business Bureau | A+ | 2026 | Addresses over 1,090 complaints but maintains high rating |
| J.D. Power Customer Satisfaction | Above Average | 2022 | Score declined 140 points from 2022 to 2026 |
| NAIC Complaint Index | Above Average | 2026 | More complaints than expected for company size |
| U.S. News Homeowners Ranking | Not Ranked | 2026 | Did not qualify due to low consumer scores |

### How does Liberty Mutual Insurance make money?

According to [(Yahoo Finance/PR Newswire, "Liberty Mutual Insurance Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Results", 2026)](https://finance.yahoo.com/news/liberty-mutual-insurance-reports-fourth-222400526.html), Liberty Mutual reported full year 2025 net income of $6.792 billion, up 55% from $4.383 billion in 2024. CEO Tim Sweeney stated that 2026 represents "the strongest capital position in our company's history." As part of its diversified offerings, Liberty Mutual has also purchased additional insurance companies such as [Safeco in 2008](https://www.libertymutualgroup.com/about-lm/corporate-information/our-history) and [State Auto in 2022](https://www.libertymutualgroup.com/about-lm/news/articles/liberty-mutual-insurance-completes-acquisition-state-auto-group), and created their own insurance agency, [Comparion](https://www.libertymutualgroup.com/about-lm/news/articles/liberty-mutual-insurance-launches-comparion-insurance-agency-its-2200-exclusive-agent-team).

According to [(Insurance Journal, "Massachusetts Approves Liberty Mutual Reorganization Involving 3 Domestic Mutuals", 2026)](https://www.insurancejournal.com/news/east/2026/02/04/856810.htm), the company will retire the Safeco Insurance brand in 2026 and consolidate all personal lines under the Liberty Mutual name. This reorganization intends to improve operational efficiency and enhance access to capital.

### Is Using Liberty Mutual Worth it? 

Liberty Mutual Insurance can be a great fit if you're looking for insurance you can easily access online, if you want a major insurance carrier offered in every state, or if you need a specialty insurance product. However, the only way to know if they offer you the best price is to compare your prices across carriers. According to [(Trustpilot, "Liberty Mutual Reviews", 2026)](https://www.trustpilot.com/review/www.libertymutual.com), customer reviews are polarized.

Power satisfaction scores falling 140 points since 2022. The company also receives more complaints than expected for its size according to NAIC data.
