Flo is a thief!

rgatijnet1 : You are getting the runaround from that Bank. You can go online and get a price from Progressive for a 14 year old unit and it is a 12 month policy. Try it. Or just call a Progressive agent.

Progressive just raised my mh insurance $50 a month! No claims, always paid on time. Just gripes by butt. Well, let the shopping begin! Hope you sleep well Flo!

I had them to Robert with same results so I switched to Geico! Hope you and the family have a safe racing season this year!

My bank handles my insurance and every year they compare rates from all of the major companies. This year when they gave the Progressive quote it was noted that they went up from the previous year, write RV policies for only six months, and will not issue COLLISION insurance on any coach over 10 years old.
That said, the rates also went up with Hartford, State Farm, National, and all of the other companies they contacted, from the previous year.
I stuck with the same insurance company I used for the last two years and their rates did increase $35 of last year but they write one year policies for all of my vehicles and they were still way less expensive than the other companies.
Progressive was the most expensive.

We traded our TT for an 11year old MH last Oct. We have an ins agent and he said the best price he could find was with Progressive. We got a one year policy with collision with Progressive.

That was last October and my quote was last week. I do not have an insurance agent that only searches certain companies and gets a commission on what he sells. It is a bank employee that, because of my accounts, does the leg work for me. They do not write the policy and get nothing for this service. I still have to write the check to the insurance company. They also do the same each year for my homeowners policy. For the last few years I have been with Auto-Owners Insurance who were almost $600/year less than Progressive.

Been Full timing for 6 years. You need a new agent. :W

You need to read the small print in your State Farm contract on the allowed use of the RV. :)

We found that Progressive will typically give someone a low quote initially and then raise the rates substantially once you have signed up. They did that to us and we quickly moved on after the rate increase. Chuck

Just stating what I was told last week by my agent. Progressive would issue a one year policy for the automobiles but only 6 months for the RV. According to the quote obtained, they would also not write collision insurance on your 2004 Safari since it is over ten years old.
Perhaps this is the restrictions they are now putting on new customers and maybe a change to come for the old customers.

Two pages of comments without the "I've been with X since 1970, and they are great" LOL. My in-laws were of that mindset. The wife fell for it, for a while, but I soon learned the lesson that most here have commented on. We got married young, stuck with the family's agent, and one day it occurred to me. As we were developing a history of safe driving, no claims, and aging out of the higher risk brackets, our rates were increasing substantially. I shopped around and found that we were paying nearly double market price for our coverage. Since then, it's become quite clear that the word "sucker" is totally interchangeable with the phrase, "long term, loyal customer" in the minds of many insurers.

Progessive was the cheapest for us while the kids were teens. They then started the typical steep rate climb, after a few years. We switched to another company, and it dropped by nearly half. Last year the last kid left the nest and our insurance is now dirt cheap, but I'll still have to shop once the inevitable increases start.

Hope it does not double post, the first one disappeared into cyberspace.
We had Allstate since the 80's and after speaking to the agent regarding the yearly increases and not getting a reasonable responce, we switched to Geico. Same coverage for multiple vehicles and we got an unbelievable 50% savings. Shop around, it is worth it.
