    Allied Insurance, tech, everything in house. Headquarters in Des Moines, Owned by Nationwide in Columbus, Ohio. Great company to work for. Tornados in Parkersburg= 2 companies left in that town, Allied Insurance and Farm Bureau, most others treated their customers like crap.

    We have FB and have been extremely happy with everything from them. We had a small homeowner claim last year due to hail damage on our roof, and they had an estimator out and had a check to us within 10 days of us calling it in.

    Re: Insurance company that doesn't outsource

    Grinnell Mutual - everything is local and they bend over backwards from a service standpoint! One hundred years old in 2009 so they're around to stay...

    Also a big ISU sponsor, though the recently retired CEO was a UNI alum...

    Nationwide owns Allied so there is another option for you.

    My experience with Nationwide/Allied is their claims service is EXCELLENT!

    From the story I posted earlier, it doesn't seem like Nationwide/Allied meet my criteria

    Missed the story... didn't realize that was happenning. I've dealt with MANY mortgage company service reps from India... most are difficult to understand and take twice as long to get things done. However, all they do is call and update/confirm mortgage clauses on policies. It's very simple and requires almost no thought. I'd also assume they get a fraction of the salary.

    I'll look further, but my guess is that those jobs are more like the ones I described above.
