Shady Organization I was involved in an accident that was the fault of the other driver. His insurance company was terrible and dragging their feet to address damages after receiving the police report and acknowledging the driver to be at fault. The driver’s insurance company sent me to the body shop for damage estimate. After the estimate the driver’s insurance took 3 months and still would not okay my repairs. I paid my deductible with 1st Chicago $1030.00 to get damages repaired At which time they told me my deductible would be completely refunded to me pending repairs. I called them a week after my repairs were complete to complain about Shotty workmanship. I also inquired about when I would be receiving my deductible as a refund that I had to pay out. They then told me there was an open investigation and the other insurance company had not found the client liable so me receiving my deductible amount refunded was not possible. They mislead me as a customer and are a below standard company. I will never recommend them and I now have to hire an attorney to recoup my deductible. Stay away from this organization!

This company is the worst This company is the worst, they sent me a notice dated 12/26/23 that my policy expired and to pay the amount of my policy by 2/8/24, I called today which is 1/19/24 to pay my policy the rep took my payment then when I asked for a renewal card she said, oh wait your policy canceled and expired and that I would have to pay an extra $430. FOH that’s not what your letter said. She said they will refund my money back in an hour back to my card. I am ready to start a class action lawsuit against this company for poor representation… I would not recommend this company to anyone

No one answers, nobody returns calls, no responses to email inquiries! Is this a real company? Tried calling this company to get quotes for auto insurance coverage. The first time I called, I waited for 21 minutes then was automatically cut off. I called back and the call was dropped a second time after waiting 16 minutes. Their website says they've been in business since 1920. Kinda seems like they've still got some of the same employees who were running the company in the 1920s! Hello, is anybody home at First Chicago??? If I can't even get quotes on a policy I sure don't want to be the one trying to file a claim with this place!

First Chicago Insurance Fraudulent My parked car was hit in an accident cause by one of their insurers on 11/9/23. I filed a claim with First Chicago on 11/13/23 providing an email with pictures of the damage, a police report, and video footage of the accident. An appraiser from SCA Appraisal Co. (another terrible company) came to look at my car on 11/16/23. The estimate information was available and sent to the company 11/17/23. I spent a month calling them every week to get a hold of the adjuster, got her information from a claim representative on 12/1/23 but wasn’t contacted by her until 12/16/23. I have never hired an attorney and she leaves a voicemail talking about how she needs permission with my attorney to speak to me about the details of the claim and estimate information. Never hired one, I’m representing myself. They make up lies so they don’t have to pay me out for my car damages at this point. Terrible company, terrible customer service, a scam. Who knows if this will get settled but figured I’d start leaving reviews now and spreading awareness of this shady company. Report First Chicago Insurance as a fraudulent company to your state attorney general, let local news outlets know your story, spread awareness to expose their scam company!
