American Continental Agents

Agents for American Continental are independent. Independent agents work for independent agencies or brokerage firms that help to create packages for their clients that best suit their needs. The benefit here is that your agent will work to find you the best insurance company available rather than focusing on one insurance company.

The downside to an independent agent is that they can only sell policies from the companies that they are licensed to sell. What this means is that a company might have a license to sell Progressive, State Farm, American Continental, but have no ability to sell AllState, Blue Shield or other major lines of insurance.

    “I just talked to an agent to get a quote for medicare supplement insurance in NC. The agent was very helpful and said she would email me an application today. The rates were very reasonable of course medicare dictates what they cover for the different plans.

    I hope things go well once the policy starts. Anyone else that has experience with their medicare supplement coverage with this company please let me know.”

    “I have had American Continental as my Medicare supplement for four years now, and my husband for many years before that. He died in 2008, with lung cancer. I have no complaints at all about this insurance, as they have covered everything after Medicare. I don’t know what we would’ve done without it!

    Thank you!

    I do have one question, may I pay my premiums online? It would be convenient, but I don’t see that option anywhere..?”

    “I tried to call the company for a few questions. (not the agent who is nice but is a salesman)I held for over a half hour. Called again on a second phone. Held for another half hour finally someone picked up the first line. Said, can I help you. I said I want to speak to someone about my Medicare supplement. she said, Hold on. Guess what. Another half hour.

    Finally, the phone was answered by a nice lady named Sharon. She confirmed that my application had been received and I would receive my package next week. That was last week. Still no package.

    I think this company is a joke. Anyone depending on them is a fool. Their number is 800-264-4000. Try it, you won’t believe it. The only reason I gave them a 1 star is a star is required to post this review. They have no respect for their customers.”

    “I took out the disability insurance I have had my Dr fax in their form 3 times this month and my employer fax three times this month and they say my claim is pending the claim form. what a joke this company is.

    I have been out of work to injury as of 4/4/2013 and they said “”sir, we can’t get your claim started yet there is a 60 day waiting period before we can proceed”” today is 6/25/2013. they can’t even do simple math, find anther company. Oh also, they’re still taking my monthly payments out of my check while I’m off work. they get one star as you must give to rate or I would give them the zero”

    “This is the worst company around. Do not waste your money on their accident insurance. They will not pay.

    I had to have surgery due to a torn cartilage in my knee. I sent them over twenty different pages of info. They got it in November 20, 2013. Did not get a response until December 20, 2013. That they needed more info. Sent them back 10 more pages from Dr.

    Now they have denied because I can’t tell them the exact date I did this. Big waste of money. The appeal will be handled through my attorney . It took them all this time for nothing. Canceling this policy.”
