- ZDZsolt Dobray6 days ago5.0Came here to discuss travel insurance and was pleased with the pleasant and professional treatment I received. This is my go to place for my insurance needs from now on. Thank you AMA.
- ADAbe DriedgerAug 2, 20251.0Was with ama for almost 19 years and i think its time for me to find a new Insurance company went and got a new truck and they didn’t even want to give me full coverage due to wildfire around our area they always come out with the stupidity policy and their phone time is ridiculous. Just to tell me they can just give me liability. Their people need to be a little more respectful on the phone when I told them I’ll find a new insurance company that could not cover my truck.

- AOama okaforJul 3, 20251.0Do not go there for your road test. Paid $164 for my son, he had misplaced his driver's license but had a copy in his phone and a photo ID, they refused the road test and did not refund any portion of the money. Went A1 and the lady did not understand why they did not just print another copy instead.
