Naraku4656 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 (edited) so i've been with my insurance company almost 5 years and get both auto and home through them. i got bored and decided to compare with another company and saw that, with similar deductibles and coverage, i'd save almost $600 a year combined. both companies are rated well and are nationally well known. Edited May 7, 2019 by Naraku4656 actually called them to match prices. would be closer to 600, not 700 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was actually going to reply about my recent switch from my old insurance to Allstate....But then I remembered how bored to tears I was when weighing the pros and cons and realized it was a very long and boring thing to post about.

QueenoftheDorks Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 I can tell you that if you plan on getting roadside assistance and are thinking about using Progressive to make sure you request it to be added on and then follow up to make sure they added it (also if you have more than 1 vehicle you have to add it for each one) and also know that their roadside assistance benefits suck. I can only really speak to the roadside part since I do deal with it on the daily, when it comes to things like accidents and whatnot I have no idea. I personally have State Farm which I enjoy. I've comparison shopped a little and Progressive is a little cheaper but I know what I'm dealing with where I am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panic Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 (edited) I currently pay $32/mo through Jake from State Farm for auto. Geico and Progressive will say I can save like $668 a year, but then quote me $50-60/mo. How can I refuse?! Edited May 7, 2019 by panic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My issues with Progressive is that their agents regularly don't tell their customers that they have to add it to their coverage, that it only works on the vehicles on the policy it's been added to, or that they only get 3 events every six months which can lead to people being stranded or having to pay out of pocket unexpectedly. You also only get 15 miles of towing (or less if you're in Virginia and North Carolina irrc which are capped by dollar amounts) which doesn't get you very far unless you're already in the town you want to go to. There are other insurance companies which give you the option of higher levels of coverage or will even cover you regardless of what vehicle you are in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naraku4656 Posted May 7, 2019 Author Share Posted May 7, 2019 So I'm learning a lot. Apparently my realtor years ago told me I needed an HO-3 policy. The agent I talked to thought that was strange and told me to double check. Sure enough I actually only need an HO-6.
