NOT HAPPY AT ALL. “DO NOT TRUST THEM” RUDE CUSTOMER SERVICE “LIARS “. I was quoted for car insurance at 129$ a month and it was no were close once I got the bill at 225$ a month. I was charged 200$ to add 2 cars and 1 person. I was told this money was going to infinity but come to find out I was paying 200$ to Z TRAVEL for there 30 min service to do this. If I would of called infinity instead there is no charge, it would of been free to add cars and people. I asked for a refund and to cancel service. They denied the refund for several days even after talking to the owner I only received 100$ back. I was given false and misleading info from the beginning just to take my money. Just want to let everybody know to watch out what your paying for at a broker. Call the insurance directly. Now I’m out – 100$. I DO NOT RECOMMEND Z TRAVEL INSURANCE in Fontana to anyone. I still want my money back z travel insurance. It’s no wonder the office on sierra closed down. I wonder why I feel like I was robbed. Beware people
