False advertising. Suggested quote on Hippo was nearly 50% than the actual quote received.
Time was wasted, Hippo is a marketing scam.

Hi there, sorry we couldn’t help you find a more affordable option just yet. The quotes you see are just estimates and can change once the insurer has more info. We’re always looking to help you save. So if you’d like, one of our service champs can assist in finding something that better suits your budget. Just let us know!

Excuses don't change the facts.
You asked a long list of questions and then used a fake quote as a hook to engage me further, thereby wasting my time.
Cheap marketing ploy, simple as that.
Also, after I indicated that I no longer require quotes, I am STILL being contacted by insurers in your network that are 'spamming' me to deliver quotes.
Have you even heard of the POPI Act and the meaning of 'op out?'
I will reiterate my statement:
Hippo is a marketing scam that should be avoided by consumers at all costs.
There are honest service providers out there - Hippo is not one off them.

No quotes generated. Now I’m getting calls from companies I didn’t even request.

After only a couple of questions, five possible insurer names appear.
