"Ola Williams is a true gem and her customer service is outstanding. She goes far and beyond the above average state farms employee, if I could give her 10 stars out of 5 trust I would and she mire than deserves it. Thank you Ola, you're my go to from this point on. Gai, take notice of the employees that give your customers great service. If she doesn't have, she deserves my book of business in her portfolio."

"I am writing this note for Ms. Ola Williams at the State Farm office to express my deepest gratitude and sincere appreciation for her help, expertise, and thoughtfulness. Her actions have touched my heart and made a lasting impact on my family. Her willingness to give great suggestions and her thoughtful gestures have shown me the true meaning of kindness. Although we have not met yet, she always treats us like family. She is always polite, professional, and courteous. Want to let her know that she is much appreciated. Sincerely, Terri Dade"

At State Farm, we strive to treat customers like family, and it's wonderful to know that Ola was able to do that for you. We look forward to continuing to serve you with the same level of care and professionalism! -Gai "

"My husband and I recently bought our first home. There were a lot of confusing terms and we did not know what policy would best suit our needs. Raymond explained why we would need certain ones over the others in a way that was easy to understand. We had never been through this process before so it was helpful to have someone explain. Highly recommend working with him!"
"Thank you, Cearra, for your positive review! I am thrilled to hear that Raymond was able to help you and your husband navigate the process of buying your first home and understand the insurance options available to you. Buying a home can be overwhelming, and I am glad Raymond was able to effectively explain everything. Don’t hesitate to reach out in the future for assistance! -Gai"

" Matt, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us! Providing exceptional customer service is our priority, and I am delighted that Raymond was able to meet your needs effectively. If you have further questions or need assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out! -Gai "

"We were looking for an alternative insurance company, after being with another company for many years. Choosing to call Gai Allen at State Farm turned out to be very fortunate for us. Not only did we get a better rate, the agent we spoke with, Ola Williams exhibited exceptional customer service. She was knowledgeable and personable, as well as professional. We recommend that anyone looking for insurance contact this office."
"Mrs. Spruell, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. We truly appreciate your feedback and are thrilled to hear about your positive experience with our insurance agency! We are glad that you found us and decided to reach out to Gai Allen State Farm for your insurance needs. It's fantastic to hear that you not only received a better rate, but also had a great interaction with our team member, Ola Williams.

"I received an exceptional customer experience when I called for a quote. Ola Williams was patient, professional and pleasant all while presenting my current options, as well as with details for future decisions for any changes I may make. All of my questions were answer, explained clearly and patiently. To this end, Miss Williams should receive more than the 5 stars. I will definitely stay with this agent."
"Hi Jameka! Thank you for the great review! We are very pleased that Ola had all of the insurance answers you were looking for and assisted you in a professional manner. She works very hard and we are pleased that it shines through!"

"I have been with State Farm for over 20 years for Home Owners Insurance and decided to add Auto. Ola was very helpful and very informative in guiding me to add an auto policy. She answered all my questions and displayed the best customer service. She was very professional and immediately responsive. Thank you Ola for your professionalism and patience."
"It is always a pleasure to have someone with us for so long! I am happy that Ola was able to make the Auto Insurance process as straightforward as possible and answer all your questions. Thank you, Tamaka, for your Google review, and praise of Ola!"

"Hello Gai Allen, I really had to take the time to express my feelings about Ola and Raymond today. I have been with State Farm for over 30 years and I know at certain times I'm not that pleasant to deal with, but, on a constant base I have been a big pain for Ola and Raymond lately with my million questions and not understanding why so many changes with State Farm, at NO time did they make me feel like I was abusing or rude to them!!!. Professional, kind, mild mannered, quick responses, returning every single phone call mssg, courtesy! I want to take this time to thank you for hiring these 2 amazing employees that I can feel their smile through the phone while taking care of my every issue and always making me feel good at the end of EVERY CALL. Thank you Ola and Raymond for your professionalism and Patience. You have always gone above and beyond for me."
"Hi Debra, Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review. It means a lot to Ola and Raymond to hear that their hard work and service is being well received. I am pleased they have remained a strong support line whenever you have questions for us. You are never being a pain when you reach out to our team! Customer service is a huge part of our office and any chance we get to provide clarity with insurance, we want to! Let us know if there is anything we can do for you!"

"Pat Roy here, I forgot to sign out of my son, Anthony Golden's account. I have been a customer for years. I love these guys. They are professional, immediately responsive. I'm 76 years old and a worrier. I'm on the phone with them constantly asking questions. They are courteous and patient to take whatever time is needed to make sure I understand. Gai, I really appreciate you and your staff. I will never change insurance companies."
"Haha, thank you Ms. Roy for the review! It is our job to make sure any worries you have are quickly laid to rest! Insurance can be confusing at times, and we try our best to make sure our customers know they can come to us with anything! We look forward to our communication whenever you need us!"

"If I could give a half star I would. My husband called to inquire about the rates for our vehicle because they kept going up. We are very responsible drivers with no tickets or DUI’s. The receptionist gave a very vague and basic answer which in my opinion had nothing to do with our policy. She was very disrespectful and rude. She also hung up the phone during the conversation. She outright lied to her manager and stated that my husband threatened her and stated that he would hit a woman. He would never say or do that. I was sitting right there during the whole conversation. We asked the manager to check the recording but he stated that they don’t do that. Gai Allen, owner agent, has yet to call back as requested. This was a horrible experience and a horrible agency. I wouldn’t recommend them for any type of insurance."
"Hi Lisa, I am sorry for the experience you had with our office. I would very much like to connect with you and your husband to see how we can help you and resolve your concerns. If you would, please contact me directly at 301-248-4505."

"As a satisfied customer of the Gai Allen Agency for more than 15 years, including the last 5 since moving out of state, I recently had my own "Jake" encounter. It was a critical renewal opportunity for a policy that I have owned for years and because I am presently unemployed and in financial difficulty, and I mean difficult enough that even after having lost a son in 2020, I could not see in the moment how to commit to ANY additional expense, so I ignored the NUMEROUS written notifications that I received, and then Gai called. Again, I lost an unmarried, uninsured adult son in 2020, so beyond the terms of the policy, there was no "real new" information beyond the numbers in our conversation, and I directed her to my son. She called him, and we discussed it briefly but one morning on a drive to run an errand, her phone call played in my head and I immediately reached out. That perfected personal touch was the catalyst for keeping my family from losing greatly. But what's a great quarterback without great players around them? Enter Ola Williams!!!!! Ms. Williams received the message that I left and called me back within minutes. From that moment forward it was white glove treatment documents sent to me in minutes, she confirmed my receipt and return of all necessary documents and even ensured that I was comfortable with the docusign process. Customer service is becoming more and more a lost art with emphasis ever increasing on technology, but at the end of the day, we all need and want a human touch and a voice of compassion speaking to us about something as delicate and inevitable as our existence and the well being of our loves. I know it's the other folks slogan, but I'm in good hands over here!!"
"Hi Kathlyn, thank you for taking the time to leave such kind words! It means a lot to our team to know when we are making a positive difference and helping when it matters. Losing a family member is never an experience we would want for anyone and while insurance is just one item among many you are dealing with, we thank you for reaching out again. I am very happy Ola was there to quickly assist you along the process and hopefully remove it as an obstacle in your life. Our goal is always to make sure customer service is a priority and that every customer should have a human touch! Once again, thank you!"

"This review is about Ms. Ola Williams, In my many years of customer service experiences, I have never received such a high level of customer service with any one in any other company as I have received with Ms. Ola Williams of Gai Allen State Farm Agency, she is simply the best, she makes me feel like she is family, very pleasant, professional and friendly, I always ask for her when I have a need for help or questions, I feel she is a major part of success for Gai Allen, meaning there are other State Farm Agencies, but only one with Ms. Ola Williams."

"I'm a huge supporter of great customer service and business professionalism, which seems to be a dying characteristic in business today. However, dealing with this branch office of State Farm and the incredible Ms. Ola going on 6 years now is a breath of fresh air. I've been dealing with Ms. Ola majority of the time I'm calling to handle my insurance matters and I couldn't be more pleased. She's fully knowledgable in all areas of my insurance matters which covers everything I own (home, autos, and soon to be life insurance) and is constanlty updating me on new policy opportunities and ways to help me maintain coverage for all my important assets. She actually convinced me to trasition to State Farm from another well-known commerical insurance company that not only was over charging me on my policies but I found out later that some of my assests weren't fully covered. I've been highly recommending this office to family and friends I encounter with insurance needs, due to my dealings with Ms. Ola and the professionalism she brings along with opportunities she alerts me on available from State Farm, and will continue to do so. If you ever have the need for any kind insurance, or a change in companies, do yourself a favor and give this office a call."
"Thanks for taking time to share your thoughts on our agency and our wonderful Ola! We're glad we've been able to help you through the years with your home and auto insurance needs. We truly appreciate your loyalty and your referrals."

"Toi, thanks for taking the time to voice your experience with our agency and the shout out for Ola. She's definitely a keeper! We're glad we've been able to help with your home and auto insurance needs. We look forward to continuing to serve you well into the future."
