I am very disappointed in their service this year. I left 4 messages with the person that takes care of helping people with Medicare and did not receive one call back. I also left a message in the general mailbox that said I would receive a call back. Still waiting. If they didn't have time to help me a message letting me know that would have been nice so I could pursue another avenue for help with my Medicare.

Report
I've been with Korthase for a while now, under my parent's policy. I recently purchased a home and a car, and split my policy off. In both cases, Korthase was able to find me cheaper rates than anyone else. I dealt with Vicki and Cristina throughout both processes, who were incredibly helpful and quick to get me necessary paperwork; Cristina even stayed late to make sure I had what I needed while we spoke over the phone. I would highly recommend them.
