    I've had Progressive for about 5 years now, and I have no complaints! Thankfully I have not had much need to call them, but when I moved to a different state and when I purchased a new vehicle, I was able to talk to someone on the phone and they were friendly and helpful. I have needed roadside assistance one time and the process was simple to navigate. I like the option of being able to change things online or by phone.

    It is the only who stepped forward after my hubby was kicked out of his insurance. After having his 3rd accident, everyone ELSE WANTED $1000 DOWN which we did not have at that time. Progressive let us pay it installment so if you find yourself up the creek like that. Call Progressive, they work with you and on your side. Not trying to rip people off. They say they may not be the lowest. I say they are the best though.

    Progressive is a great auto insurance company. You can trust them and they are pretty much leading the industry in auto insurance. The only things I could find to be a small problem is the cost. Yeah they may say they can save you this much or a certain percent but in the end your bill is gonna be a bit higher than if you went with another company.

    BEWARE doing any business with this company... they think their customers are too stupid to know anything and that they can take advantage of their customers, whom they supposedly are thankful for, but they really could give a crap. I took out a policy almost 6 months ago... just made final payment for the 6 month time period. I opened my emails up this weekend to find that the company had tripled my insurance rates. Instead of about $110 per month now $322 per month with 6 payments. When I called, I was told it was because of my 16 year old teenage driver and that's how it is with all companies. First of all, when I took out the policy originally, my daughter was already 16 at that time... Now almost 17, so if this was such a big deal, it should have affected me from the get go. Secondly, I was told by the Progressive agent that this was normal for all the insurance companies. That is a lie!!!

    I have now talked to Nationwide, All State, and a State Farm representative, and all of them were able to give me a policy that is between $100 and $130 per month and all of them with even better terms than what I had for the last six months with Progressive. I now know this company is nothing but a bunch of liars and cheats who care nothing for the customer. I suggest to all people that you definitely not do business with this company or beware the service you receive. Also, I, nor any driver on the policy have no tickets, no accidents... no claims for any reason whatsoever. Nothing has changed since the policy was originally taken out except the fact that Progressive wanted to try and rip me off.

    I've been with my insurance company for eight years and have had to file two claims in that time: one for an accident that was not my fault but totaled my car and the other for damage to the front end of my SUV caused by a semi-truck that blew a tire in front of me on a busy interstate highway. In both cases, Progressive came to my home to evaluate the damage and cut me a check for the car/damage repairs within 3 days. In the accident that totaled my car, they also paid my medical bills and for the three day I missed work with very few questions asked. A rep even called me in the hospital to check on me and my unborn baby.

    I've had Progressive for about 3 years now and the only time I had to file a claim was for a broken window on my car (vandalism). All it took was 1 call to my agent. I took the car in the same day, had the window replaced, and received a bill approximately two weeks later from the repair shop for the amount of my deductible. Progressive had paid the remainder. My claim had absolutely no effect on the amount of my premiums (something that you hear about with a lot of these discount insurance companies). I've compared prices with other companies in the past and have only found one that was cheaper than what I'm currently paying through Progressive however, that wasn't by much and certainly not by enough to make me want to switch.

They said they would backdate the policy to lower my premium and issue me a refund. I am fight 3 months of to now I still can't them to honor their words. I had a claim in one of my cars.

    Absolutely terrible service...Unfortunately I was involved in an accident with a Progressive Insured driver who claimed full responsibility for the accident. Progressive agreed to pay for the repairs my vehicle, but when the work was done unsatisfactorily they just ignore your calls. If you finally get a agent, like representatives of the Rochester, Minnesota office, you are ignored, insulted and refused any sort of rectification. I am glad that I do not work with Progressive and wish the rest of the public would move on as well. Flo is a tired, boring character representing a terrible company.

    So far we have had great service through Progressive. When I caused an accident they eventually paid for the other guy to get a new truck and for the pole he hit. It took them time only because I was on a rental and the rental company was not corroborating. Another claim was when my husband's truck caught on fire. They did ok with that one, only if we wouldn't have known the actual value of the truck, we would have lost $3000.

Last year I called them just to ask for suggestions about a ding in my door from a careless neighbor slamming her car door into mine when she got oFf her car. No claim filed, no money paid out. Then in January 2015 my son had a minor fender bender. A young teenager cut in front of him and then slammed on the brakes in the rain. He could not stop in time and ended up rear ending her. She admitted to him that this continues to happen to her and that this was the 4th time in 6 months for her being rear ended. All of this was told to Progressive. Didn't matter. Claim was paid, which was under $600.

    Progressive claims the one small accident, forgiveness goes for the car ding, that there was no claim for and our rates continue to keep jumping up. We just got our most recent renewal quote and I am sick to death of this scam artist company. They get over $5k in premiums from us a year and we are not even driving new vehicles. 2002 Infiniti G20, 2006 Toyota Highlander and a 2011 Jetta. In a year, our 6 month premium has gone from $2,151 to $2,619. Way too much for a family of good drivers, with 1 accident. Even on the credit front, 2 have triple AAA credit. I am 54 and have been driving since I was 16. I have had 1 ticket and that was when I was 9 months pregnant rushing to get to the hospital because I thought I was going into labor.

But I checked the next time I got a bill (six months later), and it was still a good bit cheaper than what I had been paying (that first discount ended up being $50 off the first six months).

    After an accident in September, my family was literally left stranded by Progressive. We were on the highway when someone stopped in front of us, leaving us with no options other than to break and hope the impact was not too bad. I could not get in touch with anyone from Progressive the day of the accident. We had to call someone to drive 2 hours out of state to pick us up at the police station. The next day, I finally was able to submit my claim. I waited two days and heard from someone within their last hour of business. The claims rep seemed more interested as to why I was traveling out of state than the car. I had to send IRS tax papers and utility bills to prove I was not lying about my state of residence.

    I asked about utilizing the rental car service that I paid extra for and she stated that since I had added the service after paying my bill I could not use it. I asked about getting my son's car seat replaced. I purchased the car seat in March when he outgrew his infant carrier. The claims rep informed me that they would give me what they thought it was worth based off depreciation. So, I said if they believed the seat to only be worth $50, that's all I would get? And she said "Yup!" But I could not do this until she was satisfied that I was not lying about where I lived and I had to take the car seat to a local Progressive office - she couldn't even tell me where one was.

    After a few weeks (and a few emails) of waiting to hear something back from her, my husband and I decided to buy a new car and new car seat. We also decided that after October, we would be getting new car insurance. We feel that Progressive looks for every little thing they can to not pay out on policies.

So, if you go with Progressive for your insurance carrier, better make sure nobody runs a red light and hits you because they're going to penalize YOU for it!

    I have had Progressive Insurance for over 10 years. I started out with Geico then moved to Allstate. I was completely unhappy with both especially since they raised the price of my payment without contacting me. Once I moved to Progressive, I have never had an issue. The prices are much better than other insurance companies. The customer service associates are very friendly and knowledgeable. I was in an accident once and they went over and above for me. I was in the middle of moving to a different state and they worked with me. They even called me once I moved to check on me. I don't think I will ever switch again!

    Purchased an auto insurance policy for a new vehicle, filled out all of the particulars and paid initial payment. On the way to DMV was pulled over as vehicle had no current tags, officer said the paperwork Progressive had provided me was not legal in my state. Called Progressive's help line and explained I needed an online insurance card or an email with the correct documents. The person on the phone with me seemed to have a decent command of the english language, but seemed utterly befuddled as to how to provide the documents. The officer left me with over 700 dollars worth of tickets. I was very lucky the car was not towed.

    Somewhere between the 20 and 30 minute mark the Progressive helper sent me emails with the "correct" documents. Having printed the new documents I went to the DMV to license the vehicle, 3 hours later my number was called at the DMV, where the clerk rejected the documents. I got home and contacted Progressive, after being hung up on twice, I asked for an immediate refund and to cancel the policy. I was given a name and a reference number. This all occurred on 9/23/15, I was "insured" with Progressive for less than 6 hours. It is currently 10/4/2015 and I have received no refund.

    To summarize, Progressive sold me a bogus policy costing me over 700 dollars in tickets and adding dings to my driving record, they then wasted over 3 hours of my time, and to follow it up they stole my insurance payment. Lying thieves, so if you want to feel like you have been prison raped, go with Progressive. If that doesn't sound fun to you, run, don't walk, away from the single worst company I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with.

    Finally got the insurance to cover the cost of repair. Not completely satisfied, but not as disappointed as before, just glad to get this taken care of.

    Original Review: Oct. 4, 2015

    I was hit by another driver on the highway last month. The driver of the truck tried to pass me and didn't give herself enough room and drove into my car. The woman had two other passengers with her and never once did she come over to see if I was alright. The police came out and we proceeded to go through the proper channels. It was about 10 minutes later I made it home safely and called Progressive. I explained what happened and they made me think everything would be fine.

    Going on two weeks now and haven't heard back so I called them. Basically they don't know who is at fault and they will only pay this amount even though that won't get anything fixed. I think it all went south after we talked and I gave my statement and told them it was nothing mechanical but the other driver caved my door in and it won't open.

    Now there were no witnesses since it was on the highway but even a moron could look at the damage to our vehicles and determine I was not at fault. To make matters worse the other driver said in her statement that "She tried to pass me and I swerved into her". Called back a few days ago and asked if they were going to send our so-called claims representative out to take pictures. No joke she said "I thought you wanted to go through with getting the mini tort?" “Yes I do but you still have to come out and take pictures for the claim.” Now it makes it look like I staged it even though I called right after it happened. At this point it would be cheaper to buy the parts for my car and fix it myself. As soon as this is all over, Progressive...you have lost another customer!

    In April of 2015, my partner and I were in a minor auto accident. We were rear ended. There was no major damage and the other driver's insurance company paid for the repairs to my bumper. In speaking to Progressive that day, we told them that my partner who was not on the policy but insured by USAA to drive other vehicles was driving my car. Fine, Progressive told us, he's insured.... The only problem is that my next premium went through roof because without asking or telling me, they added him to my policy.

    Also, they said he'd had an accident that February in Colorado but since Progressive is lazy and incompetent, they only saw someone with his name had an accident. They didn't do any checking beyond that... It was his father. To make a long story short it took months and many hours to get that issue resolved. The end result of which was me switching insurance companies. After my experience with these dolts I'm convinced the company spends more money on advertising and doing Flo's hair than actually being in the business of insurance.

    I moved from Florida to North Carolina and was using Progressive Auto Insurance since 2014. When I was in Florida the customer service was excellent and it was the opposite when I moved to NC. I started on Aug this year in NC and found a better (great!) deal with another insurance agency and changed to the other one. Progressive charged me $179 which is outrageous and they call it administrative charges (???). I have moved in the past and changed insurances and haven't got any charges.

    I feel CHEATED by progressive as they have not disclosed the rate that will be charged (almost one month of charges), also they didn't even try to ask why I'm changing to other company and if they can do anything about it (very bad business). They simply responded that I had to pay $179. I have been customer for more than a year and paid all the premium on time and only after asking why I'm getting charged and then they say it was due to administrative charge and other crappy explanation. I don't know what to do and I have to shell out $179 bucks and already I'm in a money crunch. Advice to public: ASK ASK ASK about all the HIDDEN CHARGES in Progressive.

    BEWARE OF PROGRESSIVE. I was recently t-boned on the I-10 freeway in AZ in rush hour traffic by the young 20 y/o daughter of one of their policy holders. She crossed 3 lines and t-boned me into the cement guardrail of the freeway. She provided two different statements of the incident within the police report and to the claims adjuster. Once the police report became available and was confirmed that she lied, the insurance adjuster suddenly changed his position and stated a lug nut from a diesel punctured her tire resulting in her actions not that she was struck by another vehicle which she claimed she didn't get a description of within the police report.

    They no longer used her statement of events that the truck hit her but conjured a lie saying it was actually the lug nut of a diesel that punctured hit her tire. The pictures of her tire clearly shows 4 slashes consistent with her tire scraping against something not a lug nut puncturing through. 29 days later the claims adjuster denied liability. It was clear that she lied about what happened.

    Progressive will lie and manipulate a situation for their benefit to avoid paying claims. The driver also recently submitted a claim under her uninsured motorist coverage. The outcome of that situation will be interesting... I'm certain they will eventually pay her claim since my vehicle was a 2013 Sonata which was considered totaled and her injuries will result in a lesser payout. Very dishonest company. They will make up a scenario for their policy holder to avoid paying a claim. This is unethical and should be against the law!

    Back in 2012 - 2013 I had a Kansas policy, then once I left off to college and moved to Missouri I contacted them to cancel my policy and create a new one. Then once I saw they were going to jack up my current ratings to almost 300$ I got a new insurance company. I was told that I paid everything off and was good to go. But woke up 2015 with an amount sent over to collection from Progressive. I call and they couldn't find it, then they looked at an old 2 month policy that was quickly cancelled because of the new one and said they notified by mail of the amount going to collections.

    I had an active account still so anyone could have called me and notified me since I was in school and was away of the amount! I even called them and she stated we were only looking at one policy. Hmm well when I called to cancel and pay off anything remaining you look at the entire account by itself. So they forward me to escalations and of course briefed her on what was going on so she is prepared and the woman argued with me that "no one can take care of it, it's your fault and you can call the number and pay it and discuss it with them." I am like "yea call so they can make me pay it of course." I am glad I left their business alone and did not expect to be speaking to them 3 almost 4 years later. So if you get a new policy and cancel out the old, please do their job and make sure they oversee all of the accounts!

    I had Progressive with car insurance. I had a car accident at August 8th. I was hit by another car from the back. My car was both damaged from the right rear side and front right. My insurance company put me in responsible for the car accident with no reason. Everyone told me it was unfair because it was obviously the other driver's fault. I talked to the adjuster from my insurance, but she said there is nothing they can do. I sent them the evidence of the pics of my damaged car, explained everything in detail, but they did nothing. I felt so sad. As a international student living in another country I felt helpless. I have heard so many students like me had similar unfair treatment.

    Simply because I didn't defend myself after the car accident made me in such a place. I was scared and don't know what happened when I was hit, and it took me a while to realize that I was hit by a car behind me which claim was on the left side of me. How can a car hit my car on the right back side when was driving on my left side? It was so obvious I was not responsible for the car accident. I am so sad, went to the police station and insurance company so many times and trying to get an fair treatment. Unfortunately everyone keeps saying there is nothing they can do because the report has been made. There is no way they can amend it. I don't know know what else I can do to find justice.

They stated that it is their policy that supervisors do not accept phone calls. The staff would not provide me with any names nor credentials of supervisors either. This is only in month one of my car insurance coverage. They are more expensive than other plans, poor customer service and are not consumer driven for people that rent and do not own a house.

    Right after I had created a policy with Progressive, I added my 16 year old little sister on because her adopted mother took her off her insurance because my sister caught her stealing her money. During the process, I was NOT told that my sister and I needed to be under the same roof and I was not asked by the agent. Soon later, my sisters adopted mom got a hold of my information and my policy number, so I wanted a new policy number so she couldn't do anything harmful. However, in order to do that, I had to create a new policy. Initially, they told me there would be no cost considering the circumstances. I went through a process (that took 55 minutes) to change my policy. I had already paid my month's bill and the next bill would have reflected my sister being added on, which I was under the same impression and I was specifically told there would be no cancellation fee.

    Two days later, a negative $189.63 and a $50.00 cancellation fee was taken from my debit card account. I called them immediately to figure what was going on, and they told me in order to change policies and now adding my sister on, I had to pay the difference, plus a cancellation fee for my previous policy. First, I never wanted a whole new policy, I just wanted a new policy number. Second, I was TOLD that there would be no charge, but in total, I had to pay an additional $80.00 dollars plus the $169.00 I had already paid for the month. $249.63 was taken out of my pockets.

    Then on top of all that, I was asked if my sister lived in the same house as me by the supervisor and I said "No, not at this time." Which was only because my sister was in the process of moving in with me. However, they ran with that and said that I cannot continue my policy with Progressive as long as she's on it, so after the 6 month period, it would be cancelled (they put me on hold for an hour to talk to that supervisor).

    A few days later, I get another call saying that I have until September 10th to provide documentation of her living at the same location as me, or else I would have to remove her or I would have to cancel my policy. I was not able to complete that request by that date, so I called on September 9th to remove her from my policy (until I could get the documentation) but when I attempted that, they said they were going to cancel my policy altogether and I could no longer have insurance with them. I had to pay an additional $33.00 for the cancellation fee.

    The whole experience was extremely stressful and confusing. I was told the wrong information time, after time. They never had their facts straight. The only thing they refunded was the cancellation fee of $50.00, AFTER I yelled at two people. The company is greedy, unsympathetic, disorganized and has HORRIBLE customer service. Their employees need some training on the information they tell people. It all started with me just wanting a new policy number to protect myself, and the only thing they did for me is take my money that was for bills and leave me struggling to find new insurance.

    There were 4 lanes where the accident happened. We were both entering the same lane when we gently tapped @ equivalent points on the car. I immediately moved back into my original lane making sure no car was in the way. We pulled over, I got out of the car, walked over and asked if she was okay as she was still sitting in her car. She said she was fine. And as she continued to sit in her car, she poked her finger out the window barely looking at the side of her car and said, "That was there before." I stepped back, looked at her car and said, "That's old damage!"

    I walked over to my car and there was virtually no damage, just a ripple (3 dimples or indentations) in the right wheel well and absolutely no paint loss or chips anywhere on the car. When the police arrived, he looked at my car, looked at her car and said to the woman (pointing to where she pointed earlier on her car) saying, "That's old damage!" Soon after another police officer arrived and took over. He was young. He didn't take my statement, spent his entire time with the other woman.

    Overlooked by All: 1. There was no ticket given. 2. The 1st Trooper on scene that saw the old damage, he's being overlooked. 3. In the police report the officer said, "I was unable to describe the incident." Even though he was apparently gave a falsified report which is being overlooked. 4. My pictures I took the day of the accident and sent to Progressive were overlooked by Progressive. 5. The report the adjustor wrote that said there was a 2 inch difference, basically stating there was no way I could've caused that damage was overlooked. 6. The lady was speeding/passing on the right hand (slow) lane. 7. The other lady had two children in the car and one was in the front seat and was not properly restrained (the point, I'm trying to make here is that the officer overlooked everything in this case).

    The Consequences: The accident was deemed 100% my fault. I asked the woman to not go through my insurance and she said, "Oh this is an old car. I won't even get this fixed." This woman was dishonest from the start and is taking advantage of the system. My insurance will go up to $5000 a year (this is not a joke) because only one insurance company will take me after having this claim. Why would Progressive knowingly pay out to a person committing insurance fraud?

I called them to get this resolved and told their agent that someone had side-swiped me on the highway and was cited for this by the NC Highway Patrol.

My agent tells me it's about this claim. Apparently the other guy went to the hospital a week later and claimed to be injured--a 22 year old healthy black male. They paid him 7000 for bodily injury and never truly investigated his claims. There is NO way this man was injured in our minor collision.

    I have been with Progressive Insurance for many years. I originally had a local insurance company and when a Progressive customer hit me I switched because they were very fair and seemed friendly. This has proven to be a mistake, they raise insurance costs for seemingly no reason. (Never been in a wreck in 5+ years, no tickets as well.) Every time I call in I speak to someone who doesn't have a clue about customer service, as they jump straight to business and immediately ask why you are calling in like you are bothering you. Gone are the days of "how is your day going?" or "How are you".

    My car is an older car that isn't worth much money, yet Progressive seems to think that my deductible needs to be higher each time I renew. I have just the bare bones basics and pay over 60+ dollars. I moved a ways down the street and that was justification enough to raise my rate with no apology. I pay on time every month through autopay and every time I call in I get a rep that either doesn't care at all, or is downright rude. (I've called a max 3 times since I've had the policy.)

    This is a very poorly run company and checking rates with the competition I seem to be over paying by a whole lot. Poor customer service and shady ways to increase deductibles means that if you're looking for a company that values their customers, stay very far away from Progressive, as the only thing progressive about the company is the consistent rate increases and extremely unmotivated customer service.

    Linda was rude, condescending, and unhelpful! They have the highest rates out there. I signed up with Progressive with liability insurance, when I bought my new car I wanted full coverage and their quotes were higher than all the others. I decided to go with State Farm. When I canceled with Progressive they charged me $55 even though I paid for a full month and an opening fee, I had coverage for 15 days! In the end I ended up paying over $250 for insurance for just 15 days and the women on the phone mocked me. So disrespectful and unprofessional.

    So I'm on a light and the light turns green with me going straight. The Progressives driver comes out of the ramp, hits me, and drives on the sidewalk. So we stopped, exchanged insurance, made a claim. Ruby ** is handling my claim, she emailed me requesting information. I told her in words how and where it happened but she didn't understand, until I drew her pictures and took new photos of the area. Ok so 1 week goes by I call Ruby 2 times, on the 3rd she answers and says "oh I talked with our driver but we need more information, you can get an estimate only".

    Ok so today was week 3... I call Ruby at 12:05 pm, 12:20 pm and 12:30 pm, I talked with Kathleen and she said she will leave Ruby a memo. At 4:30 pm still no call and Ruby is there 8 am to 5 pm. I asked for the manager at ** and he didn't pick up at first either, got in touch with him and I asked him "why is it taking so long and why is Ruby neglecting me via phone and email". He said they are unable to get in touch with their driver and if I can't wait call my insurance and let them handle it... then he said "can you wait one moment, can you do that for me", and hung up. Now if they deny my claim I can sue them with the video from my dash cam?

    For my first time buying a car, having to get full coverage on it seemed like a lot. Progressive made it sound easy. Until they actually had to handle my claim. I turned too sharp one morning, hit a pole on my passenger side, and was immediately undriveable. A few days later my claim representative TYLER ** calls me to tell me my car is totaled. I'm in shock. I hit a pole going not even 10 mph and my car I just got 4 months ago is totaled??? Yes because progressive only quotes brand new car parts so that right there is half the overpriced cost. After they total my car out. My only next option is for them to tow it to junk yard. (So they could get more money out of it, I would never see/ go towards my $4,000 interest I still had sitting with me even after my insurance paid the Kelly Blue Book to my lien holder.)

    So now I'm telling Tyler I still want to keep my car. I wanna fix it myself for what the car shop has got my estimate down to $1500. He tells me for days I have no other option but to let them come tow it so everything can process. (Their check to the lien holder and their money to come from the parts on my car at the junkyard.) This is where it got ugly on the phone and I told him I would be doing this right here- telling everyone how awful he handles claims and doesn't help- because I knew I could buy that car back from my insurance and he never offered and said I couldn't for day after day.

    He says one day he talked to his supervisor and here's what we can do. We can sell the car back with a salvaged title and tries to tell me that's not what I was asking the whole time because I just wanted to buy the car. I didn't say anything about salvaged. This guy is just getting me word for word and not helping always sounds like he's just taking his time to get back to me. Has never answered my call, always has to call me back. Final straw with him was this past week. Wednesday he calls to tell me he is OVERNIGHTING my title to me. I need to take it and switch it to salvage, send him a picture of proof, then he'll have my car towed back to my shop (where they towed it to an off lot of their choice to be held for collateral ).

    Friday evening comes and I didn't receive a title yet. I think okay if he overnighted it Thursday it should be here today so I call Tyler to find his phone is off. Saturday comes and goes. No title and his phone is still off. Sunday I don't think they run but if they do same thing, no title and his phone is still off. Monday morning he calls me to tell me he tracked it and it was to be delivered today. I go, how does that make sense for overnight shipping? It's been 4 business days. His explanation is simply it's fedex's fault. Well I was determined to see about that one.

    As soon as the FedEx lady arrived at my house that morning I walked out and greeted her and asked simply if this package was an overnight package. She pointed directly to the package and says "No. Right here it's says it's for two day delivery!" I immediately call Tyler and ask why did he tell me I would have overnight shipping when I didn't. He simply says that he himself l was not in charge of shipping it and he was sorry! 3 different occasions I have this representative telling myself, myself and my boyfriend that he was definitely overnighting it.

    I was expecting to have the title switched that same Friday, my car be towed back to the shop and it would be getting worked on right now. But you know what? None of that has happened bc I am at the mercy of this awful claim rep. I have two jobs and this is has been the hardest month spending more money taking rides than I ever would just putting gas in my car. Literally breaking me and this claim rep acts as if it's not his job to assist me as quickly and efficiently as possible.

    I applied for a free quote for car and home insurance online from progressive and filled out all the information they wanted. They said my house was valued at 75,000 which it isn't. I said it was only worth 65,000 and they said I had to hire an independent assessor to show the value of the house. My property tax is based on 65,000 and why should I have to hire someone to prove the value for my house. My current insurance company used the tax value.

    Although I have happily been with Progressive for over 6 years, today I was beyond frustrated with this company. I don't typically bash companies on the internet -- but in this case, I had to. My partner and I recently traded in both of our cars for a used truck. Before we purchased the truck, I called to get an insurance quote to be sure I could afford the monthly payments. Sure enough, the payments skyrocketed, but it was still super affordable. So we bought the truck! Yay! Of course today, I called to actually change my policy, and they told me that my monthly payment was over $40 more than what they quoted me. After being on the phone for 45 minutes, I finally got it so it was only $22 more than what they quoted me. I just took it.

    Just out of curiosity, I shopped around. Although I wanted to be loyal to Progressive -- I figured what the heck. Sure enough, I found insurance for $10 less a month with Geico. To make it worse, my partner had just cancelled his policy with Geico hours before. He received many military discounts and loyalty discounts, but because he had cancelled his policy with Geico under the assumption that we were getting a deal with Progressive -- all of those discounts went away. So Progressive basically lied to us about our monthly payments and screwed us out of discounts and affordable monthly payments. I cancelled my policy immediately. Do not trust this company! They are liars!

    I was talked into getting the roadside assistance package. The second month of a new term with this company I locked my keys in the car. I was happy that I had added the coverage. However, the company they contracted to assist me never arrived. After calling back 3 times and waiting over two hours I was able to get help from a friendly passerby. I called the locksmith to let them know I didn't need any more help. Several weeks later Progressive sent me a cancellation notice for using my roadside assistance coverage. Now they want to fix their mistake. I will never use Progressive again. I can't rate them any lower. Also, I see that over 1,000 people have rated them 1 star when I'm sure they would have liked to give a lower score. All I can say is you get what you pay for. With Progressive that's nothing. The idea that by law we are required to have coverage that doesn't help, seems to be a scam. Be wary of this company.

    I'm disgusted with Progressive. My husband and I have been with them 4+ years. They claim to have a loyalty program. I find no loyalty whatsoever on their end. It's really iffy how our policy varies in price from one month the next one month will be $150 the next could be $220 - who knows? Not once has my husband or I been in an accident or had a ticket, especially my husband who has been driving almost 30 years with no issues.

    I'm disgusted by how unfair in their policy they are. When I received paper bills from them the price was way high but of course companies always say "Well that's counting this month" or whatever etc. I let it go. But now I receive the bill through email as soon as it comes out, of course I have the same issue. Then at one point it was only $60 a month - the lowest it's ever been, because I gave them my debit card number.

    I think it's wrong that it's $60 if I give all my card information to them but at least $150 if it's not through my account. Needless to say, I'm done and looking for a different insurance company. Progressive is one big joke. Flo is awesome but she's also a fake character just like progressive and their "low prices" and "loyalty benefits".

    Progressive is a terrible insurance company. I was hit by someone in 2012. I followed all the proper guidelines in submitting a claim. Got my car fixed etc... However, when I call to get information on the accident because one of the pieces on my car has a faulty paint job. The trunk of my car that was replaced has absolutely no gloss left to it. Looks very dull and just overall a mess compared to the original parts.

    Anyway... I call and end up speaking to one of the rudest people ever. This woman became very sarcastic with me and didn't care whatsoever in helping me. To top off the despicable customer service rep that I unfortunately had to speak with couldn't even find my information on the car accident. They had absolutely nothing on it. They couldn't tell me a thing about the accident. It just vanished from their computers. I don't recommend anyone having insurance through this company. Even while I was having my car fixed not a single person throughout the entire process was pleasant. Very rude.

When I called Progressive to file a claim the agent I spoke to said they had not yet heard from the hit and run driver.

After claim was submitted to them they called 2x to different agents from 2 different states, Ohio and PA. So they both got my story. What's next, right? My claim was denied. I knew this was going to happen because the other person felt she was wronged. Really? I sued Progressive and case settled out of court. Good thing too because I'd have won way more. My car's fixed and I'm happy with the offer that our family practice got back but I am disappointed in the way they treated me after the 1st adjuster denied my claim once I filed suit.

I'm a law student, I'd never daresay I'm a lawyer if I knew I wasn't, so I knew he lied!!! And he misrepresented the insurance company and their interests at hand. I am a shareholder of PGR so I understand why they'd be upset but come off it, man. The police saw it all, do you really wanna play this? He hired a poor lawyer who saw this case and probably grabbed a shot glass because his client was guilty as hell.

    Since my family has a practice I wasn't swayed by his threats. In fact I loved it. He made a complete Jack@$$ of himself and Progressive Insurance had no choice but to discharge the claim with payment of satisfactory since it was in small claims court already. It made sense to settle but they chose to do it the hard way and that's why PGR sucks. It fails to stand for what is right even when their client is guilty as hell!!!

    Two years ago we moved to FL state and went with Progressive Car insurance because it was cheapest at the time and seemed in very good standing. We usually pay our policy every 6 month or for a full year. Everything went well until we added 3rd person to our policy and we have to pay only sum under $200. It was not a big deal, right. Payment was processed before the due date and everything went well.

    Then following week we got a call that our policy increased due to our Credit Score change??? Didn't make any sense. Then two days ago we got a letter from Progressive that and I'm quoting: "Your account has been listed with our company for collection. If paid in full to this office, all collection activity will be stopped." The amount was the $5 less than what we paid?? So I called them again to see what going on. Per Progressive they never got the check. So I called my bank. Got the monthly statement, since the payment was processed a month ago I had the statement in my hand. Then I printed the check and the monthly statements and faxed it over to Progressive, e-mailed over to Progressive.

    Progressive are not sure who got the money. I got a copy of the check that was cashed by Progressive with their stamp on it?? This is beyond radicals.

    I asked to speak with a supervisor, we spoke for over 48 minutes. I had copied the text of the online chat session and saved it in a word document - I informed the supervisor of this.

    Accident occurred June 5th - not a fault. Person who hit me (insured by Liberty Mutual) did not file a police report and refused to speak to either her or my insurance company. Progressive jumped to the conclusion that I must be at fault, but as long as I pay my $500 deductible, they can get it taken care of (over $6000 in damages). Today is July 23rd and car is still in shop. Progressive refuses to pay for rental, it has been coming out of my pocket since Monday. Spoke with a 'supervisor' today and she informed me that the rental is actually out of pocket since July 5th (over $500 at this point), and the auto body shop is not one selected by Progressive.

    There are two locations of the same shop, same owner, same everything, but apparently only one is considered a Progressive shop - and it's not the one my car is at. No one informed me of this, and it is now 48 days since I've seen my car...and STILL do not know when it will be ready for me. Representatives do not answer or return phone calls, different answers from everyone you talk to, beyond frustrating. Save your sanity and avoid them at all costs!

    On or about May 15, 2015 my car got broke into while my wife was at work at Abuelo's. We called the cops and they got a report. I then called Progressive, which they told me it would be a week before the adjuster could make it out. During this week it rained for about 30 minutes once or twice a day. During the break in they broke the driver window. We kept a bag and tarp over the window but whether rain or shine my wife still has to drive to work and we have kids that have activities that need to be driven to. When the adjuster came out he said he didn't need me, he knew what he was looking for, so I let him be til he was done. He estimates around 1000 for the radio, headrest DVD players, window damage, and any other damages saying he could get used parts.

    I was then told to take it to a shop, which took a week to find one because no one wants to deal with Progressive. While my car was in the shop I got called by Justin from Knoxville telling me how things were going to be. Had an attitude the whole time like I was a felon when I have been paying insurance with them for years. Then informed me I was told 3 different times to duct tape my window. Why would anyone duct tape their window. Before Justin I talked to a lady Rosanna who never returned my phone calls and informed me she was done with me.

    Finally 3 weeks after my car was in the shop I talked to the estimator Greg who finally said he would write me a check for 1000. We never said that was the end of it during the call or anything. We go to pick up the check and it said final payment like this is all squared away. Went to pick my car up from the shop and the insurance company paid 500 and I was informed I still owed 200. Got in my car and they hadn't fixed anything. On top of that the adjuster that showed up to talk to the guy at the shop ordered a box of spray to clean carpets which was 60.00 and never showed back up to even pay the shop the money for the carpet cleaner.

    When the cops came out they estimated 2,500 worth of damage and stolen property. We got our window fixed for 200 which we paid out of pocket and they wrote us a check for 1000. Tell me how that adds up. They are the rudest company and not all about customer service. They are always right and the customer is always wrong. This is July 21, 2015 and I just got my car back today and still have no radio, my carpets still have rain damage and my driver door buttons still don't work right. Looking up a better insurance company now. Never again will I go through them.

    I was involved in an at-fault accident that I immediately took responsibility for, because that's the right thing to do. I contacted Progressive and made a claim immediately and explained the incident. They promptly took care of the people whose car I struck by giving them an immediate rental and offering to come out and quote the damage on their vehicle next day. On the other hand I have had nothing but issues with this claim as far as damage on my vehicle goes. They said they could not send anyone out to assess the damage on my vehicle for a week and a half and that I had to take my vehicle in to one of their service stations, which is an hour from my house.

    I did this, on my only day off, and was then advised that I could not use who I wanted to for repairs. I wanted to use a family friend who's done repairs on all of my family's vehicles for years, since he doesn't charge an arm and a leg for labor and would help save on my deductible. I was advised that Progressive will not make out a check to him to have these repairs done and will only make the check payable to my lien holder (who I finance the car with) or pay another shop directly. This makes no sense to me, what does it matter who's fixing my car if you're going to pay out the same amount regardless? I've had no problems doing this with my former insurance company and will likely be canceling my policy with Progressive. In addition, the rep contacted me and hassled me about obtaining a rental car (which I pay for). This whole thing has been inconvenient.
