Shopping for insurance doesn't always happen in one sitting. Whether you paused your quote to double-check vehicle details, talk with a spouse, or compare rates with another provider, Allstate makes it easy to resume right where you left off.
Here is a practical guide on how to retrieve a saved Allstate quote, what information you'll need, and quick troubleshooting tips if you run into snags.
Step 1: Gather Your Retrieval Information
Before heading to the site or app, make sure you have the key credentials used when you initially started the quote process. Allstate typically uses a combination of:
-
Zip Code: The location associated with the policy property or primary vehicle storage.
-
Email Address: The address where your quote confirmation or saved reference number was sent.
-
Quote Confirmation/Reference ID: Optional, but useful if sent in your confirmation email.
-
Date of Birth & Legal Name: Required for primary policyholder verification.
Step 2: Access the Allstate Retrieval Portal
You can resume your saved quote through two main channels:
Via Desktop / Mobile Web
-
Navigate to the official Allstate Website (
allstate.com). -
Go to the Insurance Quote section for your product type (Auto, Home, Renters, etc.).
-
Look for the "Saved Quote", "Retrieve a Quote", or "Resume Application" link located near the main quote start button.
-
Enter your email address, zip code, and date of birth to load your saved quote session.
Via the Allstate Mobile App
-
Open the Allstate app on iOS or Android.
-
If you already have an account, sign in.
-
Tap Get a Quote or navigate to active saved applications to continue.
Step 3: Review and Update Coverage Details
Once your saved quote loads, review your details to ensure accuracy before finalizing:
-
Vehicle & Driver Details: Confirm VIN numbers, annual mileage estimates, and driver license information.
-
Discounts & Bundling: Check if adding a second vehicle or bundling home/renters coverage unlocks additional savings.
-
Coverage Limits & Deductibles: Adjust coverage options to evaluate how different limits impact your final monthly premium.
Troubleshooting Common Quote Retrieval Issues
-
Quote Expired: Allstate saved quotes are valid for a limited window (typically 30 to 60 days, depending on state regulations and rate updates). If your quote has expired, you will need to re-enter your details to generate a fresh rate.
-
Can't Find Reference Email: Check your spam or junk folder for emails from Allstate containing your reference link.
-
Direct Support: If you encounter technical issues, call Allstate customer support at 1-800-ALLSTATE (1-800-255-7828) or connect directly with a local Allstate agent to look up your details manually.
