Progressive is terrible. The idiot adjuster can't or won't send a fax. They are lowballing the estimate and the value of my boat. The guy who hit my boat while it was parked in front of my girlfriend's house and drove off has Progressive. This happened May 15th. My boat is still sitting waiting to be fixed.

Bennie, if I am not mistaken, Bob sells Progressive, right? Bobby, Sorry for the late response. I am running around the UK country side with my lovely wife and Internet is not easy to get here. Unless I want to pay 15 pounds for a 24 hour period.. Luckily we are in a Hotel with free internet. We all like free stuff.....lol Bob is an Underwriter. He can sell many different ones...My Insurance through Bob is with Progressive. I am very confident that with Bob as my agent, I will not have any problems should I have to make a claim.

i had progressive when i had my 20' champion and i cracked my transom..anyways long story short they sent the guy out to where my boat was at (tinies fiberglass) in longview to look at it and he did the "moister test" he says, "and i quote" ( the reason your transom is cracked is du to moister) he took the stupid test in the RAIN...are u kidding me??? needless to say after months of fighting they finally paid with my lawyers help but after that i droped them and went with foremost...no problems what so ever and even had 2 claims so far...one for some small holes in the bottom of my boat and one for theft..im happy with them

That's a shame you had to fight for what you paid for which is insurance. Glad you got it resolved though.

Well, I have to agree that it more than likely comes down to the agent and how much they want to go to bat for someone. With all of the negative posts about Progressive, I really don't know what to think about that. I have had Progressive on all of my vehicles and boats dating back to before 1996. Never not once have I had any problems with them in getting claims taken care of. There have been high dollar claims, $10K +, and small claims of only a couple of grand.
Progressive raised my rates for three years after the big claim but the rate went right back to where it was when I first signed the policy after that three year time frame. With my current boat, the lower unit has already been replaced at a cost right at $7K. The claim was paid quickly and no rate increase thus far. The policy has renewed as well.
As for some of the issues being spoken of, I hope you guys are able to get your boats repaired and any issues resolved.

I think it very well comes down to the agent and I like mine right here in Texas. Karen with State Farm gets my vote! Give her a call and see if you don't agree 972-231-1988.

Bonjour,
je veux juste amorcer une discussion concernant les compagnies d'assurance et savoir entre autre votre avis sur [url=www.assursante.fr/tarif-mutuelle.html]tarif mutuelle[/url] de swiss life It is funny when they don't even know what language to spam in.

I have Progressive and filed my first claim last year. I was getting the boat up on plane and hit a floater. It gnarled my prop and bent the prop shaft. Progressive paid the claim and I thought all was well. I just got my renewal and my premium went from $350 to $525. I'm not very happy about that and will look for another insurance company. Mine went up also and ive never had a claim!Will be doin some shoppin round.

I had State Farm for over 25 years boat, car,truck and homeowners. Had one claim when we got our house broken into about 10 years ago. Our rates went up on everything over that period of every year. I also had my medicare supliment with them until I did some checking and saw I could get the same coverage for $70 per month I then checked the other insurances through an independent agent got the autos about 20% less Homeowners about30% less. Never did insure my motor cycle with State Farm because you can't beat Daityland for that. I had a claim about 2 months after changing auto when I got my bill for this year it actually went down a little.Good by State Farm.

For all those with Progressive Insurance, you might want to check this out.  Thought you may like ot see this, too. check Snopes on this http://www.snopes.com/politics/business/peterlewis.aspProgressive Insurance This is a heads up regarding Progressive Auto Insurance. You know who they are. There the ones with the clever television ads featuring the perky brunette actress all dressed in white. What you might not know is that the chairman of Progressive is Peter Lewis, one of the largest funders of the left in America. He is your typical rich spoiled kid who took over the company from his father and apparently feels guilty for his success and now dedicates himself to making it impossible for anyone else to become wealthy. Between 2001 and 2003, Lewis funneled $15 million to the ACLU, the group most responsible for destroying whats left of America s Judeo-Christian heritage. Indeed, Lewis is himself a ACLU member. One of the ACLU projects he earmarked his funds for was an effort to sue school districts that have drug-testing policies. In other words, this idiot wants teachers to be able to use drugs without fear of exposure. I wonder what he would think if all his own employees came to work drugged out every day. Lewis also gave $12.5 million to MoveOn.org and American Coming Together, two key components of the socialist left. The former group is perhaps the main group used by the Obama forces to organize their activists; the latter group is a 527 political action group that essentially served as a front for the SEIU union thugs who ran ACORN. His funding for these groups was conditional on matching contributions from George Soros, the international socialist who finances much of the Obama political network. Its disturbing that Lewis made a fortune as a result of capitalism but now finances a progressive movement that threatens to destroy the free enterprise system. He reminds me somewhat of Armand Hammer, the former head of Occidental Petroleum, who did business with Joseph Stalin and become his good friend around the same time Stalin was executing business men all over the USSR. What angers me further is the way this company is targeting television shows watched by conservatives such as Fox News. Peter Lewis is making a fortune off of conservative Americans so that he can destroy our country. He is banking on no one finding out who he is. I think its time we expose this clown.
