Testimonial for: Linda Gray - Linda Gray of Down East Insurance Agency is not only my insurance agent, she is my friend. She has been my agent for about 5 years now and I know that every year at my renewals she will review my policies to be sure I am covered properly. Her reviews may lead to a better rate or a suggestion to increase my coverage and the reason why I should. I never have to worry. In this busy world we live in, knowing my insurance needs are well looked after makes me a lot more comfortable. I have recommended Linda Gray to several of my friends due to her expertise and professional handling of my own insurance needs, and they have chosen Linda and the companies she represents because they are so impressed with her courtesy and prompt attention to their insurance needs. I would, and do, recommend Linda to anyone!

Testimonial for: Angela Chute - Angela Chute has gone above and beyond for me. I thought that I was being well covered with a previous insurance company, but after Angela spoke in terms that I could understand, I realized I was FAR from covered. Since I have been with Down East Insurance agency, I have saved a considerable amount of money and gained a considerable amount of coverage. I am confident that I am getting the most personalized, professional, honest service in the world of insurance. I never expected a phone call from my insurance agent, just to say "I think I can save you money" - who could ask for better service!? I highly recommend Down East and Angela Chute to anyone looking to save money and gain excellent service!

Testimonial for: Angela Chute - From the moment I first spoke with agent Angela Chute, the relationship I have with Down East Insurance Agency has been nothing short of absolutely wonderful. While I first started out utilizing them for car insurance it was an easy decision to also use them for homeowners insurance when purchasing my first home. As the home buying process was very new to me, Angela was very patient in answering all my questions and explaining very thoroughly my policy. With the addition of the Down East Credit Union in Topsham, I am very excited to have even more services made available to me, close to both work and home.

Testimonial for: Linda Gray - I am very pleased to be able to let you know what a wonderful job Linda Gray of Down East Insurance Agency has done for us. Back in February of 2010 our insurance for our car and truck went up by a large amount. In speaking with Linda she looked at many possibilities for us. At first she could not do much better than what was billed to us. Linda did not give up. A day or so later she called to let us know that she found an insurance company for us that had a much better rate and we were able to switch over. Both my husband and I were very pleased by her outstanding work. Linda could have easily just stopped looking, but she continued to help us. Linda Gray has always been there for us. Any questions we needed answered she has been able to do so. Linda has always been very pleasant and professional to us. Down East Insurance Agency has a great employee working for them.
