I used to have allstate for car insurance in my 20s. It slowly went up each time and I never thought much of it, but eventually it was too much and I started shopping around.
Every other company quoted me less than 50% of what I was paying allstate. I called my allstate agent and asked if they could match these quotes and they said no.
I switched companies. The NEXT DAY I went to allstate's website for a quote (which wouldn't run a credit check I don't think?), and the quote was in line with every other insurance company. Less than 50% of what I was paying them just 2 days prior.
So, seems to me that insurance companies just like screwing their existing customers.

Also, no I did not lower my coverage.
