Since I did not have my old phone to send a code, their system would not allow me to make a transaction. So I wasted 20 minutes. Had to go on line, enter the system, and update my phone#. That took another 10 minutes. So it took 30 minutes just to access the system before I could even begin a new auto policy. Then I spent another 20 minutes to actually add the policy. 50 minutes!
This kind of thing happens to me a lot, partly because of my somewhat antiquated technology (hey, I'm on a computer right now!) partly because I'm not very savvy about this stuff, and partly because a lot of these things are just not very user friendly. They're just not.
