Plymouth Rock Insurance: Budget-friendly and no frills

Plymouth Rock stands out for its very competitive pricing and a solid lineup of discounts and coverage options. However, its availability is limited to a handful of states, and customer service reviews are often less than stellar.

Still, for drivers in its service area looking for budget-friendly coverage, Plymouth Rock is worth considering — earning it a good rating from The Zebra.

Available only in CT, MA, NH, NJ, NY, and PA.

Methodology — how The Zebra reviews insurance companies

The team of insurance experts at The Zebra evaluates companies by focusing on customer experience first, with an emphasis on service quality, reliability, and ease of interaction. Unlike previous models, pricing is not scored but is instead presented separately as context for comparison.

Each category has been scored using a combination of our internal customer satisfaction survey results and published scores from reputable organizations such as AM Best and J.D. Power.

  • Service Accessibility & Support Quality (25%): This category measures how easy it is to get help when needed, evaluating factors such as support channel availability (phone, chat, in-person, app), response times, agent knowledge, service hours, and language accessibility.
  • Claims Experience (25%): This category assesses how smoothly the claims process works, considering ease of filing (online, app, or phone), transparency and communication, processing times, and fairness in dispute resolution.
  • Digital Experience & Policy Management (25%): This category evaluates the convenience of managing your policy: this includes mobile app usability, website experience, account management, digital document access, self-service options, and platform integrations
  • Trust & Reliability (25%): This category looks at a company’s overall reliability, measuring financial strength, market stability, regulatory history, communication transparency, and consistency in policy terms.

Price context: Pricing varies significantly based on individual circumstances and risk factors. Customers can evaluate cost-effectiveness based on their specific situation and the service quality scores provided.

Plymouth Rock's customer service & claims experience: Ebbs and flows

While Plymouth Rock offers convenient digital platforms for routine policy and claim management, customers report a significant drop in service quality when handling disputes or complex issues

Poorly managed!

"Poorly managed, non existent customer service and a do it yourself attitude towards their customers make this the worst insurance company. No help finding a repair facility and they send you an “E check” so you will need a printer and an banking app to be able to deposit this check. Just try getting someone from that company on the phone, be prepared to leave a message and wait for a return call that never comes." - Trustpilot

Great company to do business with

"I have been with Plymouth Rock for about 5 years and had a great experience with them. I have had 2 claims- 1 for auto damage from backing into guard post at a gas station and other wind damage to my roof. Both were handled promptly and to my satisfaction. Great company to do business with!" - Trustpilot

Left them recently

"Never had any complaints until i noticed my insurance going up $25 every year.
I cancelled my car insurance, four days before renewal. They told me the money was already scheduled for a withdrawal in four days and if it gets withdrawn they would issue me an echeck.
Going on three different weeks, still waiting for this refund."- Yelp
