“We switched to Sonnet last year after 20 years of loyalty to another insurance company. It’s so easy to make changes to our policy and someone is always at the ready to answer our questions.” "Super easy, super customer service, super price. Almost a third of the price of other companies for house insurance. Couldn’t be happier with this company. Thanks Sonnet." “Only had great experiences with customer service when needing to call and clarify the policy. Love how I can make the changes to my policy online and it’s easy to understand.” “Very easy to setup my policy and love the price. Also, very easy to understand what is included in my home and auto insurance. Highly recommend Sonnet!”
