Colorado_Buzzbee, Just EXACTLY what are these posts about? Do you work for these company's ? What is your point/motivation here?

I'm sure Lori that he is only trying to throw some light upon the activities of these big names of insurance industry. As consumers all we want to know about the nature of the company.


  • do they have a good name in the market?
  • can they offer a product that will suit my needs?
  • how they will react to my claims?
  • will they be enough sympathetic towards my situation or else will give me a run-around?
  • are their rates enough competitive?


This kind of articles can be used as a ready reckoner by the consumers of insurance. And it'll help them in their decision making process.

I presume that Colorado_Buzzbee's only objective to help the community with the insight and not to promote the companies.

Hi Lori,

Do you work for these company's ?


NO.

What is your point/motivation here?


The point is to check whether my knowledge about a couple of these companies are true & accepted by all..
The motivation comes from the sufferings that I perceive across forums..

I'd like to share with people over here..some good things that all these carriers say they have in place & would like to see if there are other views as well. I think both my knowledge & other people's views & experiences about these BIG BRAND NAMES are gonna help a lot of them!

I'm sure you'd not be embarrassed if something goes against your knowledge & would rather be honest to take the trouble of posting against such wrong information provided to the community..

I'd rather agree with Carol when all she has to say is-

I presume that Colorado_Buzzbee's only objective to help the community with the insight and not to promote the companies.

Hi all,

I've heard of something good about Progressive!

It would really be a wonderful idea to cover all drivers irrespective of their driving experience or not bothering about how many points they have accrued upon their license. Again, it is like saving quite a few bucks through a customized pricing structure wherein a neat driving history lets you pay lesser than many others. Carla-rice

hi Colorado_buzzbee!

Welcome to the forums..

Its good to know about Big brand names like Progressive, Allstate..I'm sure you'd be showered with queries & speculations..as such topics could yield unforeseen repercussions within a community!

Even I'm not gonna leave you unturned..but before you go any further tell me, IS THIS TRUE???

DOES PROGRESSIVE COVER ANY TYPES OF BUSINESSES?

I was often told that Progressive is all set to cover a businessman irrespective of his being a known co. or a starter. They seem to stress a lot that they have a variety of coverage ready for businesses of different structures & reaches. I wonder if thats true!!

An old friend suggested that they even have packages set for seasonal businesses..

I'd wait for your reply..tk cr..Fatman

Now that the name, Progressive, is 'thrown out' there, let me tell you MY experiences with them. About 6 years ago, I bought a good-used car. I went to Progressive to get Liability ONLY. The car was a '87 Barette and Liability is all I needed. Well.......to make a long story short, according to Progressive, the MINIMUM payment I can pay, "according to the laws of PA," were $109.00, per month. I started the policy in March of 2000. Every third month ( or so) my [ayments kept going UP. I din't know why..I asked the insurance company. They kept telling me some BS about "rising costs..etc.." By the time I ended the policy I got a new one somewhere else..) in Novemeber of 2000, i was paying ALMOST $140.00 per month. My driving record was SPOTLESS!! At that time, i went to another insurance company. I paid $29.00 per month for Liability. I recently purchased a used vehicle and STILL have the insurance company I changed to 'way back when.' My FULL COVERAGE, on the vehicle I have now, is SOOOO much cheaper than the LIABILITY I had at Progressive. Also..to 'wind this story down', Progressive wrote a letter to Harrisburg ( Penndot) tell them i was driving without insurance. I had to fax my insurance card/policy to Harrisburg (transportation). I DID have insurance. In my opionion, Progressive is very devious and they don't care about their customers. I talked to a lawyer about this, when this issue was going on. I was told if Progressive was to continue this 'charade', I could file file charges. I cleed Progressive and told them that. I never heard from them again.

I 'think' I understand now Colo....are you doing research on (for instance) the largest four? And will be adding them? Or (apparently) just auto insurance is your query? Are you then going to compile a report of some kind?

Re: Progressive (to my knowledge) is the only company that gives it's insured's (with collision coverage) coverage for their dog that is injured or killed in a collision...
