Hi
I have tried so hard to reach out to a cooperate personnel person to file a complaint against my insurance adjuster ( Lauren Wheelock) as well as her supervisor (Brooke) , can someone please provide me with the correct contact information. I’m based out of Michigan, this has been the word experience I have ever had with such a well known company. All the have done is added to my already tragic experience.
I am terribly disappointed with Progressive Insurance company whom I have said are wonderful in the past. Today, my daughter was involved in a no fault car accident. Upon looking up our policy I see that it was cancelled on 02/14/2022 for a January missed payment that is taken out of my account automatically. Unfortunately, I had Covid during January and did not pay much attention to my bank account and thought it had been withdrawn. When I called today to see why it was cancelled and why I had not been notified, they stated that “we mailed you a letter”. Funny they can text me and email me for anything else but a cancellation notice. My policy has my daughter and I with two cars on it and my husband has his vehicle and our home insured with Progressive as well. I understand I missed a payment. However, what I don’t understand is how Progressive will not work with a customer of 5 years with multiple policies. I have paid thousands of dollars to Progressive insurance having cars in the past covered by them also. They cannot give their customers a month of grace? Or even a phone call? Now, we have no coverage on our cars, a totaled vehicle that hopefully will be covered by the person at fault, with no representation due to one month payment. Thank you Progressive for showing greed and uncooperativeness. It is shame that I have said what a great insurance experience I have had with the company.
Also, I would like to add that when I was rear-ended in June of 2021, it took Progressive 5 months, yes 5 months to take care of my claim. Its okay to wait 5 months for you to help me, but one month of no payment and nothing. I was very patient during that 5 months. I could not get a hold of my insurance adjuster, had to look at someone else’s claim adjusters name so I could get through to someone that didn’t have a full voicemail to help me.
My name is Eric Edwards Graham this company is really s*** for how they do their customers I’ve been on a claim it’s been like 3 months already they keep giving me the runaround on my policy asking me my whole life situations wanting to know how and for every little thing that don’t have to do with anything to do with my claim by this company is very very unimpressive right I rate this company and zero lady is very rude that do the investigation for in Tennessee her name is Megan and Daniel is over my claim send Maryville Tennessee my name is Eric Graham please I need somebody to help with my claim phone number is 865-247 -XXXX do not do bussines with this company.
Every car seems to be totalled. Then it is towed to their closest Auction Block. They have their own calculations to determine the value percentage for repairs. IF YOU ONLY REMEMBER ONE THING IT IS THIS: THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT CUSTOMER SERVICE. THEY DESPERATLY WANT CARS THAT ARE IN DEMAND AND WILL MAKE SURE IT’S TOTALLED EVEN IF ITS A SMALL DENT. THEY MAKE A LOT OF $$$ SELLING YOUR VEHICLE ON THE AUCTION BLOCK TO BODY SHOPS WHO REPAIR AND SELL AT A MUCH HIGHER PRICE THAN YOU WERE PAID. I’VE SEEN IT HAPPEN. MY FRIEND IS A DISABLED SENIOR CITIZEN WHO NEEDS MEDICAL CARE 3 TIMES A WEEK. IT’S A 5 MILE WALK ONE WAY ON THE SIDE OF A BUDY 4 LANE HIGHWAY
SHE HAS A CAST ON FROM SURGERY. FINALLY FOUND A VEHICLE SHE LOVES AND CAN AFFORD. THREE WEEKS LATER IN A ACCIDENT. WITHOUT SEEING PICS IT WAS DEEMED TOTALLED
THE AGENT WAS MAKING CALLS TO HAVE IT TOWED IMMEDIATELY TO THEIR APPLETON AUCTION BLOCK. THIS WAS WITHIN 20 MINUETS OF THE ACCIDENT. SHE DID NOT ALLOW IT TO BE TAKEN BUT HAS NO TRANSPORTATION
I DO NOT THINK SHE WILL SURVIVE UNDER THIS STRESS. NEVER EVER RECOMMEND PROGRESSIVE. FOUR OF MY FRIENDS ARE SWITCHING AND WE ARE INFORMING EVERYONE ABOUT THIS KIND SOUL. SHE PAID $700 for 6 months of full coverage. It’s a dirty shame. I don’t know how they can sleep at night knowing they’ve ruined more lives than they can imagine!
This company won’t fight for you if you only have the state required amount of insurance. I was hit by someone who totally scammed the system and I had proof of this. Progressive settled the case behind my back and gave the scammer $25,000 for a plastic smudge that he left on my car. We did not exchange information, I let him go and he took my license, filed a faulty claim a week later, and had a bogus witness. Also there were so many inconsistencies that I could prove but Progressive canceled my arbitration hearing and settled without consulting met. When I confronted them, I was told they did it in my best interest because I only had a $25,000 policy.
Then in an accident where the person was found at fault and hit me but didn’t have insurance and was covered by my PIP, Progressive bullied me into finishing treatment early then totally and completely sim-stated my rights and what I could and couldn’t do after I stopped treatment. Never telling me I had 3 years to finish my medical treatment and now I have life long injuries. Still looking at for my best interest Progressive?
PLEASE READ ALL THE COMMENTS BEFORE SIGNING UP WITH PROGRESSIVE, IT WILL SAVE YOU STRESS, MONEY, AND ENERGY IF YOU GO WITH ANYONE ELSE
I’m waiting to see what leadership Progressive Insurance will play to relief it’s policy holders in this never seen times of Covid-19 . With a mandatory shut down of 90% business in the US for over a month. What relief will you offer to truck owners that have not moved their equipment in weeks due to the shutdown and you continue to send payment notices for vehicles that are sitting? All State and a few other Insurance companies realized this situation and are showing some type of relief to their customers. Where do you stand Progressive? Is it All about money and you not care or have feeling for the people that help keep your business going?
Corporate Greed
Charging 20.00 dollars for a movie that is in theaters is disgusting, greedy and unacceptable in this time of a viral crisis.l Not good for those confined at home with TV as an only source of entertainment. Shame on Suddenlink for taking advantage of a sick opportunity.
Reduce movie fees to that of a theaters; in Laughlin, NV we can attend theaters for 7.00 dollars. Meet this entrance fee via “ON DEMAND” and you will happier customers.

They would like my authorization after they illegally obtained my private information. Ok 2 months into an investigation with no merit. Still stranded waiting for claim to be resolved. I will protect my privacy at any cost. 3/27/20 I haven’t giving my authorization to protect myself illegal abuse. Tallahassee here we go.
I had progressive for a time. Use one of their auto plug ins to monitor my good driving habits too. What a joke! Because I braked hard to avoid other idiots on the road and worked an afternoon shift/ “High Risk” shift, I was charged more than $100 a month more than my normal insurance bill. I have had an impeccable for years and this is how I was treated.
I was watching A&E tonight on streaming media. Progressive aired an awful add. Portraying a white male in his fifties as a big dumb buffoon living with his mother and playing video games. It seems that Progressive is jumping on the anti-white-male band wagon that is infiltrating western culture. I dare Progressive to portray a woman, black person, or a Muslim with such disrespect. This is disgusting!!!
I will never consider doing business with progressive due to their lack of sensitivity and respect for a protected class.
I have left word to speak with Tricia Griffith’s EA June. Have her call me @ 214-213-XXXX
Ever since I come to your company I’ve gotten VERY POOR customer service not to mention constant harrassing emails demanding me to pay my renewal because it was due way into weeks in advance. To be precise I have received ten (10) emails today and yesterday and the day before and the day before that. I keep getting told that I was taken off your stupid email list; yet, all the way up to an hour ago I’m still getting your company’s harassing emails demanding that I pay something way in advance when it’s not due for weeks.
I also been told that Progressive’s corporate office has not phones in that building to communicate with customers that have been receiving poor customer service and that corporate does not want to hear from their customers… Really, is this true? Is that why corporate is hiding?
For 25+ years until closing I was with this one company paying in full and always paying in full… local office… local one representative for whom knew what was going on and even knew their customers… now I’m receiving piss poor service at a higher price and not knowing for whom is taking my money.
If I don’t hear and get to talk to someone from corporate in the coming days I am seriously considering closing this account and taking my money elsewhere.
Sincerely,
Richard Malone,
A VERY DISSATISFIED CUSTOMER!
You spend alot of money on advertising and you should fire them all. Your commercials are lame, dumb and exhausting trying to figure OUT WHAT THE HELL YOU ARE SELLING. A cave man could do better. The latest Motar Man are horrible and frightening to children……and discusting to adults. And again the horror takes away the fact YOU ARE TRYING TO SELL ANYTHING.
who is approving your commercials? They are awful- why not tell us the benefits of dealing with Progressive instead on really dumb ads?
Your “motour” ads are creepy.
The commercial with Jamie sitting in a classroom, then becoming totally obnoxious and vitriolic is certainly not going to sell Progressive Insurance. What an offensive representation to sell anything! Unfortunately, this type of disrespect is so prevalent in our society! Smarten up, Progressive!
worst company ever to get them to pay off on a claim or to even talk to you on the phone. i have now been on hold for 19 min
This is what seems to be the worst company on this planet. Ads are lame and stupid… customer service is far worse than Comcast & Verizon put together… and don’t forget the constant and annoying emails being sent to you demanding you to make a renewal payment at that time, even when your policy isn’t due for 4 to 5 weeks. I’ve received 10 emails today all stating the same thing and yet nobody knows why nor can stop the emails.
I’m ready to call the sheriffs office and file a Criminal Felony Harassment suit. “Oh, I’ve removed you from our email server. You shouldn’t be receiving any emails any longer.”, says Progressive Representatives. And yet everyday for several days/weeks before renewal date do I still get those harassing emails.Call them again and again and nothing happens but LIES!
Hold for 19 minutes? Hell I been waiting for a claim for OVER 100 days …
I HATE your radio commercials. Jamie is so annoying I turn them off everytime they come on. Please do America a favor and stop playing these you are not making any new customers
Claim number 193825851
My wife and I have come to the realization, understanding we were treated with disdain, Unethical, deception, contrived fallacies for personal gain, “bonus” and gratification durning this entire process. An employee who represents Progressive conspired, who handled our claim showed personal malice causing us undo hardship and pain. At this point it is hard for us to continue to do business with Progressive Ins, she made it crystal clear we were not viewed as valued customers.
I hope this email reaches those whom need informing of our concerns.

On April 16 my Honda Accord was hit and damaged while parked in a carpool lot in broad daylight. I was at work 35 miles away–no note was left. Since the accident was clearly not my fault I asked that my deductible be waived. Progressive refused, telling me the only way it could’ve been waived was if I had been paying a higher premium or had the at-fault carrier information.
Thirty-two billion in revenue and $1.7 billion in profits last year and Progressive can’t waive a $500 deductible for a 13-yr customer who was 35 miles from his car when it was hit? Ridiculous. My previous auto insurance carrier would’ve waived it without me even having to ask. That’s how loyal customers are normally treated, or used to be I guess. Except at Progressive.
Very disappointing. I will be looking for a new auto-insurance provider.
I have a problem with the latest Progressive Insurance commercial where the lead character is mistaken for the maid (housekeeper) in a family.
I’m sure the ad guys didn’t have any bad intentions. The commercials are usually humorous and quirky. However, I think it is insulting to people who are actually housekeepers.
It’s just my take on it.
Thanks for listening.

I was a customer of Progressive for a number of years, and due to the rising premiums, I had to find coverage with another company.
At the time of the switch, I would think my balance would be paid. We all know if you do not pay your premium, your insurance cancels.
Apparently, I have a balance! This has been sent to the credit reporting agencies.
I have called the agency you hire to collect, who are unreasonable and rude.
I am not asking for the balance to be cleared, but rather, a reasonable payoff amount.
I hope to hear from you soon,
Sincerely,
Brenda Roldan

Claim #19-3410392
I have been with Progressive for 10 years. On Thursday, February 14, 2019 (Valentine’s Day), I was involved in a hit an run accident (other driver’s fault). I filed a police report and called Progressive. After the insurance adjuster assessed the damages to my vehicle, he determined it to be a total loss. Structurally and mechanically, the car runs great. The only damage is the front bumper and underneath the bumper. The car is not totaled! Progressive refused to pay for the damages due to the estimate of repairs. The body shop told me that the car is easily repairable. I have been given the run-a-round. This has been a terrible experience with Progressive. Can someone at the executive level please help? I never thought Progressive would treat their insured this way. I am a victim.
To all concerned feeling left out and hopeless, I have your solution!!!!!
As its unfortunate to see all the people who have been unable to resolve their issues I would like to offer a representative that is truly a pure gem. she took care of everything for me. so why not offer up her services and phone number to call her at your convenience to help out with everyone’s issue. she works mostly at night, but is readily available to answer all calls at any given moment.
Hope this helps,

.
I am not a policy holder with Progressive I was hit by a drivers who may have been dunk, There was 3 cars involved. Progressive has agreed to 100% of the man who was pushed into me and 50% on my car because they THINK he hit again, Which even if he did there driver caused the accident. The adjuster is rude & very difficult I have never worked with a company that have done something so unprofessional I understand protecting the company but be ETHNICAL. I am a single mother who just wanted my car repaired at 100% now because of the unprofessionalism I’m only getting started I will make some I contact the news, I will not shut up!! drivers pay insurance to have the peace that they will not be responsible for an accident. But this driver will be sued for my damages because his company doesn’t respect there driver!!! Word of mouth is Key and I will not stop so Its okay I’m being ignored. All other adjuster have been respectful and professional except the one who made the decision to cover my car at 50% admitting her driver cause accident.

I’m desperately trying to get in contact with supervisor or someone in the position to assist my family in overturning the quick decision to not approve our claim. We to have to communicate via email because I’m currently at sea (Active duty Navy). My wife number is listed in our file, she will also be engaged in this discussion. We are looking to overturn Homesite/Progressives decision to not cover the busted pipe on the second floor or our house and water damage to the first floor.
-The busted pipe was from use of cheap materials from the builder and time. It was nothing the tenants did to cause the issue.
-The house isn’t an investment property, we received short fuse military orders to Japan and had to figure out how to pay the mortgage so we got a friend(Navy Family) to move in. We were advised to hire a property manager to communicate issues to ensure we were covered.
-We wasn’t informed of the need to change our policy type until now, prior to and after returning from Japan my wife adjusted our policy multiple times (home, auto, renters) and not once did the question come up about the changing our housing insurance. NOTE: changing our policy to fit the “rent house” policy is cheaper than our current policy, if know we would have made the switch without question.
-We have faithfully paid our insurance with Progressive the last few years without any issues. So now, we are in need of the money we invested in the company, I feel as thou we are entitled to coverage.
-The cost is 10,000.00 worth of repairs, progressive is an extremely successful company that we trusted to take care of our issues if needed, so if you can’t overturn the decision I would like the number to a higher supervisor.

To Whom It May Concern:
I, Bridgette Smith, would like to dispute the “Determination of Fault” whereby I was deemed to be at fault according to Mr. Vincent Fazio (Progressive Insurance Claims Representative) on December 12, 2018 approximately 6:20pm. It was dark, cold and the roads were wet while driving in heavy traffic.
I spoke with Mr. Fazio on the telephone after my 2014 Toyota Camry was damaged by a pothole on the exit ramp from I-285E to I-75S. Per our conversation, I expressed to Mr. Fazio that there was another car affected by the pothole as I was driving onto the shoulder. He replied, “You know you will be charged for the accident!” I also asked him should I call the police. He replied, “No”; however, I dialed 911 to report the accident regardless of Mr. Fazio’s answer. His answer was truly unprofessional and unethical. I felt humiliated and I never felt like a valued Progressive customer/member.
As my car was being pulled onto the tow truck, two other cars pulled over onto the shoulder because their cars were damaged by the same pothole. One of the drivers gave me permission to take pictures of his car and the High Beam Transportation driver told my brother, Mr. Vincent Smith, and I that he had been towing cars at the same location for the last couple of days. On Thursday, December 13, 2018, two other cars were disabled on the same shoulder.
On Friday, December 14th, I called Progressive again to speak with Mr. Fazio’s supervisor. Ms. Ebonie Perkins returned my phone call and she was also unprofessional. I tried to explain to her that it was dark, the roads were wet, and I could not see the pothole. I provided the same scenario as I did to Mr. Fazio and as my car was being towed onto the tow truck, two other car tires were damaged also by the pothole. She told me “well they were at fault also”.
On Friday, December 21st, I called Progressive to get an extension on the rental car because I would not have arrived at Maple Street Collision (MSC) in time to retrieve my car. MSC did not reopen until Wednesday, December 26th due to the Christmas Holiday. Mr. Chris (MSC) told me that Progressive denied my request; therefore, I called Mr. Fazio again to request the extension, he did not answer. Carrie, another Progressive Claim Representative tried to reach him but saw that he had been gone for five minutes. She granted me the extension.
Because of Mr. Fazio’s and Ms. Perkins’ nonprofessional attitude, I plan to find another insurance carrier. Neither representative offered me Accident Forgiveness.
Regretfully,
Bridgette Smith
My wife was in an accident caused by a Progressive Insurance client. Our mint condition truck was totaled. We told the Progressive Adjuster right away that we would be buying the truck back because it was still drive-able even though the passenger door was jammed shut. During the inspection the inspector did not tell the Auto Body Shop where we were told to take it, that we were buying it back. The adjuster told me on the phone that the body shop did not take the truck apart during the inspection. My wife went to pick up the truck and the door had been forced open and would no longer shut tight. The Auto Body shop gave it back to us with the door strapped shut. My wife requested another estimate based on the new damage to the truck, but Progressive refused and sent us a check. I emailed the corporate office and still have not heard anything back from them. Our check is about to expire. I am very unhappy with Progressive Auto Insurance.
From some of the postings, as expected to an extent, not every claim is handled in what is expected by the policy holder. (Claim # 18-1168963)
On Nov 13, 2018 i struck a pillar, and pretty took out the right rear door and quarter panel. I was notified by a CAROLYN SMITH a adjuster who handled my claim…..efficiently I might add. She affirmed all the incidentals of the claim, and was told to take the truck to a shop of choice. I made an appointment at the collision shop, and received a phone call from a RODRIGUEZ BANKS, a Senior Claims Rep. Kept in contact with me with updates every week. I just picked my truck on 12/10/2018.
Again, from some of the posts, I am very happy and services received were more than expected….
A very happy customer!
well I’m glad you had a good experience but so many don’t for one, the customer service sucks. and I have yet to find ANY phone numbers to call of anyone who gives a S??T
My car was a total loss when one of your drivers crossed over 3 lanes of traffic and slammed into my daughter and I head on, thank god we had no broken bones but still lots of scarring and new aches I didn’t have before the accident, it has been 3 months since the accident and I can’t get a good reason for our injury settlement to still not be paid 18-3436579 is my claim number I’d just like an answer other than next week because I’ve heard that for the last 6
This is the letter I just sent to Progressive. Maybe it will help someone else know what to do.
My name is Jeanette Hayden. I am the mother of an 18-year-old son, Timothy Sewell, who could have been killed by a driver with a Progressive policy. The policy holder’s name is Edith Gutirrez. Also Francisco Gutirrez is on the policy. My son took a picture of the insurance card. The driver was a female and the address was , Waxahachie, TX. 75165. Your female policy holder pulled out of a Walgreen’s parking lot and rammed into the driver’s door where my son was driving, shattering the window and making a massive dent which could have severeley injured or killed him. The police were called and the police report clearly says that your customer was at fault. As soon as my son texted me her insurance card, I immediately called Progressive and opened a claim. Progressive assigned a woman named Maggie Hardin to work the claim. Her direct number is 972-204-5526.
My son’s accident happened a week ago Thursday, Sept. 14, 2018. We still have made NO PROGRESS in getting our claim paid. We have called Ms. Hardin several times and she states that Progressive policy states that they can’t pay the claim until they talk to the driver to get “her side of the story,” EVEN WITH THE POLICE REPORT! Why do you need the driver’s statement when the police report clearly puts her at fault? It has been over a week and she states that she still has not heard from the driver. Chances are, she never will. We have also spoken with our insurance company who is also trying to reach a conclusion to this valid claim. Ms. Hardin has offered no alternative or clear explanation as to why Progressive MUST talk to the driver. She shows no sympathy to our situation and just quotes policy to us. We have tried talking to the state board of insurance and are in the process of working with attorneys.
This accident has rendered my son hardships, as he has had to depend on others to get to work and school. He was clearly traumatized, as this was his first accident and could have been killed. Nobody at Progressive gives a rat’s behind what happened to my son or what this is doing to our family. What Progressive is doing by dragging out this claim due to company policy may be legal, but it is also unethical and dishonest. Your actions show that you have no concern for victims and only care for the “almighty dollar.” Progressive is using this policy as a stall tactic in hopes that this will all go away and you will not have to pay the victim a penny of what is owed. I do not know how anyone with this attitude can live with themselves knowing that they are cheating victims out of what is rightfully owed them.
The company policy that you must contact the driver may be protecting you legally, but it cannot protect you from the court of public opinion. We live in an age of technology where the facts, and even opinions, presented by people who use social media can be expressed without penalty. It’s called “free speech.” Anyone can express their concern that people who have Progressive insurance may not be getting the “best deal” for their dollar.
My son has been traumatized, our family has gone through excessive stress and inconvenience, and the frustration over getting what is owed us is mounting. I hope and pray that this gets resolved as quickly as possible by someone who actually has a heart.

I have repeatedly ask for a different adjustor. My claim number is 18 -2048275. The Adjustors name is Dasheene Matthews. From our first conversation I knew I absolutely did not want to have to communicate with this person. She is rude , condescending, pushy and manipulative. I in no way felt she valued me as a Progressive customer. She immediately made me feel She was not there to assist me. Instantly felt her whole goal is to find a way to say I did not cooperate in someway so I can be disqualified from collecting anything on our accident claim. I ask this person 3 times for a new Adjustor. If I don’t feel safe or protected by my Adjustor I should be able to have a new person assigned upon request. I requested a new Adjustor the furst week of my claim. As a customer shouldn’t I have the privilige of working with someone I have confidence in. I have none . I have no hope. I am stressed. It has been an entire month. Our car has not been inspected as yet. Immediately we are under investigation. No rental car. No help of any kind was offered or given. I am sad and disappointed. I pay 280 a month to Progressive. For what. Grief is all I have received so far. I do not want to work with this rude Adjustor. Can you please assign a new person immediately? One that is not associated with her or her blick please?

Claim Number: 18-1933577
My name is Richard Neblett and I would like to take time to share a very disheartening recent experience with the chosen service provider, Progressive and myself. I live in a small place called Killeen (Fort Hood) that is home to some of the country’s greatest soldiers and heroes. As both a loyal customer and a disabled veteran of this country, I’m saddened, frustrated and angered from the treatment received by some of the Progressive claims staff as well as the service provider that I chose to complete the work. It appears as if there was/is no balance and checks system to ensure a completed and finished project. This past June 2018, I was involved in a no-fault accident that USAA accepting liability. I understand that the choice of service provider will be ours, however between insurance providers and collision specialist, there should some way of identifying as to whether the collision specialist is at least the minimum of being competent and knowing what all is involved in resolving issues as they arise.
The vehicle that I have insured with Progressive is a 2010 Jaguar XF in which I pay approximately $4476 down from $5060. I’m a man over the age of 50 and unlike millennials, when I’m satisfied with service, I don’t shop for service. I’ll pay the cost of the service required. When my vehicle was damaged an adjuster came out to my house to start the claims process with a field adjustment. The field adjuster never even rung my doorbell to inform me that he was on my property, looking at my property. I’m certain that a conversation at that point would have probably have resulted in less confusion and the complete repair of my Jaguar. Had the field adjuster taken the time to get first hand details of the accident, a suitable place for repair would have been established and recommended. During the conversations I’ve had with both the progressive claims adjuster and body shop, there was/is continuous blame being thrown back and forth, but no one is accepting responsibility, and no one is trying to get this resolved. The body shop will certainly find themselves in litigation because they have been paid and the work still isn’t completed. However; the relationship between Progressive and I still exist and can be fixed. I believe $4476.00 is worth the investment of keeping the relationship in tact. The body shop insists that the vehicle wasn’t taken to “Jaguar” because progressive wouldn’t authorize it.
I sincerely pray this letter inspires someone to take care of this customer. It appears as if I need to purchase a brand new vehicle that will also need to be insured with full coverage insurance by someone, if not progressive. That translate to spending approximately $600 a month or $7200 for a year. I’m not certain of what type of working culture exists within Progressive. Unfortunately, the quality of the insurance provider isn’t exactly known until a claim must be filed. Can someone, anyone…. please assist me. A Progressive employee that can put the needs of the loyal customer first. The chosen collision specialist will be dealt with the way things are dealt with via court of public opinion, social media and actual courts with litigation. The relationship with the so called collision specialist is over. However, the relationship with progressive at least salvageable, because every relationship may have strain, but ultimately it’s the choices people make that determine what happens next.
I initially signed up for Progressive auto insurance, online.
The initial process omitted asking marital status & disabilities.
When I contacted Progressive, your representative had to manually make the correction’s, which afforded me discounts. I sent a hand written letter & e-mails to notify them that I am a senior citizen with limited computer skills. I informed them their on-line “log in” process was XXXXbersome & I was never able to log-in to view my statements,
I received a computer generated – “Thank You for contacting progressive” response, but no resolution. When I notified them that I was unable to get past their log in process, to view my statements, no resolution. When I was asked to sign the “electronic signature” doXXXXents, to keep my discounts, and was unable to do so, again, no resolution.
I’m on a limited monthly income. I can’t afford a quote of one fee by your representative & then have fluctuating premium’s as a result of my inability to sign computer generated doXXXXents. Progressive punished me & kept attaching fee’s & removing discounts, making my insurance un-affordable.
When I learned of a Progressive underwriter, within a short distance of my home, I inquired WHY didn’t this company inform me of this individual & allow me to go to his office to sign the doXXXXents to retain these discounts?……this courtesy was never offered to me.
I went in May, asking for some assistance with this company, he informed me, they do not like to change agents, to which I responded, I never had a agent ! That day, I gave Progressive, every penny I had to my name, assuming that my premium was still the quoted rate from their representative several month’s prior. I assumed wrong.
I was never informed what my premium had jumped to, as a result of not being able to electronically sign doXXXXents—TO DATE, I STILL DON’T KNOW WHAT MY MONTHLY PREMIUM WAS.
This company took all my money & informed my state driver’s license division that my insurance had lapsed, the month prior, despite taking all my money. This resulted in my State’s removal of my license, which has not happened to me before & should have never happened to begin with.
This company penalized senior citizen’s who don’t have computer skills to sign electronic doXXXXents & they never offered a local agent or a solution to resolve the situation, they just tacked on additional fee’s & removed discounts.
*************************************************
All the money this company spends on their advertising campaign *(FLO), should be spent on updating their initial on-line insurance questionnaire.
Progressive should hire customer service member’s to answer to new clients concern’s, so client’s know their monthly premium’s & are instructed of how to perform the required tasks to keep our discounts or offer a local agent to help resolve problems.
All State DMV’s should verify that an insurance company is not punishing senior citizens with limited (if any) computer skills, so that our driver’s license is not compromised.
If I am ever asked about this company, I will be their worse customer representative.
I will NEVER suggest this company to anyone I know. Progressive is not a customer service oriented company & they have no qualms penalizing senior citizen’s.
Every time I see these “FLO commercial’s” will further my disgust with this company.
Sincerely,
Senior Citizen in Florida
Oh, just in case you need to know what members of the Progressive team I am speaking of ……
Sandy @ 111411 was the individual who manually made the corrections to my policy so that it reflected my marital status & disabilities.
Eric was supervisor from the Cleveland Care Center who failed miserably trying to correct this travesty,
Kristina Cameron ( 4409325391) Insurance Verification representative . When I called her from my State DMV on August 31st, trying to figure out what had happened, she informed me that she needed “24-48 hours to review the phone call’s”.,..since it was Labor Day Weekend, I would have to wait till the following Tuesday to get a resolution.
IT TAKES YOUR COMPANY DAYS, TO REVIEW A THREE MINUTE PHONE CALL?
I never heard back from her. So I called her on Sept, 4th, around 2:20 p.m., inquiring about my situation, Only to learn that my “premium had increased, due to the removal of discounts” that were once given, but since I have limited computer skills, were later removed. She was aggressive & rude, not to mention slow as molasses.
Just think how much money we can save if progressive would eliminate the most brainless commercial ever seen on TV , both geigo and progressive run some of most annoying adds, gee who in the long run pays for it the consumer, I can not say what part of management think there adds are intelligent but they need help.
I was shocked at the high quote on my new Nissan Sentra / I have had no accidents or tickets probably for 15 years ! Progressive was nearly twice more than State Farm ! Truly unbelieveable / same coverage etc ! To top it off I do less than 5000 miles a year / retired & living in a high security condominium . You tv ads totally contradict your quote ! Maybe save mone for the corporation by eliminating some of the most rediculous commercials on tv !!
You commercials are VERY annoying and a waste of your money. They are on way too often. Spend your money more wisely.
I am shopping for an “umbrella policy” to include 4800 square foot home and three cars. Based on your recent national ad campaign that pushes a racial agenda, YOU ARE NOT being considered. My family and a nice circle of friends are omitting all individual businesses, companies and corporations employing racial agendas.
I have been driving for over 20+ years and have never had just a horrible experience with a car insurance company. One of the supervisors by the name of Marge actually just hung up on me as I was calmly explaining that three representatives had provided me with incorrect information. I have only been a customer with them for about a month. I sincerely regret switching car insurance providers and am doing research so that I can terminate my policy with Progressive early (even though I have paid for 6 months in advance. So VERY disappointed!!!
This is a complaint regarding Jasmyne Alston progressive adjuster. As part of the process we filed a claim with Progressive insurance, the other party’s insurance provider. On March 30, 2018, Jasmyne Alston arranged for a scheduled estimate for the damages to the rear of our vehicle. At the start of the estimate process, the female representative at the progressive service center conveyed to me that I would be receiving a check for the damages incurred. After approximately half an hour, the representative approached me to convey that there was a coverage issue with the claim and that it was in hold status. I would go home and wait to hear from progressive. After no contact for several days we attempted to contact Jasmyne Alston the adjuster regarding the issue. Leaving many voice messages as a result. There were no return/courtesy calls made until I received a call from her stating that the damages on their insured parties vehicle did not match the damages to my vehicle.
At this point my understanding of this explanation is an unbelievably irresponsible excuse for not being accountable for their clients irresponsibility. Their insured vehicle may not show much damages but the fact remains, their insured vehicle ran into my vehicle causing monetary damages. I don’t believe one can adequately evaluate damages through pictures only. My question becomes, how can the adjuster (Jasmyne Alston) arrive to an accurate conclusion without reviewing the police report first? Further, in my opinion it’s a stretch to draw any conclusion based on only the pictures especially when you haven’t physically seen the damages or reviewed the incident report doXXXXented by the police. This individual was found irresponsible by Rancho Cordova Police Traffic Division and as a result of his insurer being progressive they are accountable for damages repaired.
We would like to see progressive do what’s right. Accept the liability responsibilities like they’re intended to for their insured customer. Since, the claim (183316200) we filed with progressive was denied by Jasmyne Alton (progressive adjuster), we filed a claim with our own insurance (Safeco Insurance). Our new claim number is 754478686002-201. It is our belief that progressive has to accept liability for this claim and compensate for our damages incurred. It is clearly stated with all evidence presented to the police in the attached police report that the progressive insured individual is at fault unequivocally.
In addition to the complain above, If progressive will not accept the liability damages on our vehicle further action will taken and that’s include the Adjuster (Jasmyne Alston, the individual who damage our vehicles and progressive co.) If progressive can pay Flo be on TV to promote progressive insurance, progressive afford to pay liability cause by their insure client. Be responsible for your insured action.
You dropped Laura Ingram, a reporter that is not friendly to those that lie and/or misrepresent. Yet at the same time she shows empathy and compassion in volumes. But, you opt for some kid that can’t keep his own story straight. Making statements like; no other generation before has looked down the muzzle of an AR-15 like his. Excuse me what about those in Machine guns in WWI, WWII bazookas and machine guns, Korean War, Iraq and Afghanistan. He comes on tv and thinks he is cute throwing around F bombs and calls people XXXXXXes and idiots. Wearing BS buttons. Now we have some entitled little boy running around spouting vile dribble and making unfounded allegations. There has never been a member of the NRA commit a school shooting. School shootings have all been committed by children, the problem is not the gun it is the schools. March for Lives was scheduled before the Parkland tragedy. Children like little entitled Davy that now thinks he is cute because he can say F… . And, you opt to pull support of someone that gave little Davy a hint why schools may not wish to have his foul mouth in their school. The TRUTH ladies and gentlemen…you know there has been an old saying that has proven to be true time and time again; that a person that resorts to vulgarity is normally someone that does not have weight to his or argument, so they resort to shock and awe for validity. Ask your little buddy where he was during the shootings, see if he tells you the truth? I guess you can say anyone that is as shallow as you and your company certainly doesn’t need level headed people to purchase your products. I am sure you won’t miss me and many of my friends from purchasing anything that your companies name is on…follow the stocks and watch the effects. Better yet, watch the effects of your ignorance and knee jerk PC reaction…Now you’re breeding little pc children that don’t feel they have to be accountable, nor suffer consequences of which we may find is the biggest contributing factor to the recent tragedy. The problem was never the gun. However, what we now have is someone that gives all appearances of some spoiled little brat looking for his moment of fame. He never set any special events up, they were already set up for him and schooled by the media. No, sorry you are just as sick with this advertised action, and to think you had an opportunity to be a positive influence and look what you chose to do. Sad, hope works out for you…listen to a number of realtors say you made life simple, one less insurance company to endorse….and Auto salespeople are just say see ya wouldn’t want to be ya…etc….your response is up to you, it is obvious what your agenda is, it is obvious that you have no clue or desire to make schools safe for children.
Your insurance sucks to begin with, and now you have decided to bring politics into your little nest. You have proven you do not want anything to do with conservative American’s, therefore, we want nothing to do with you. Neither I, my family, or friends, along with many others, will never in this lifetime will purchase your worthless insurance. Align against the 1st Amendment with a whiny little hogg, and we, just as swiftly, will align against you. Enjoy your time in the mud with your whiny little hogg. Who, like you, is nothing more than a bully. See how well it works for you.
Really tired of the hate based on political views. There is this mentality that only the left can say what they feel no matter how insulting it is. Your political bias is not appreciated and i will respond by never doing business with you. I got a quote a few weeks ago but now i will purchase with MetLife. #boycottprogressive
I had ( noticed I said had because I dropped them last night) been with Progressive since 2010. I have a clean record and no accident claims. In June, my 16 year old daughter was then added to my policy and my monthly payment jumped up to over $200. I was paying under $100 prior to that for full coverage. I was told to try out the Snapshot to help lower my monthly bill. I signed up online, as I had a Snapshot many years ago and knew that it would help me out with a discount. I installed my Snapshot and noticed instantly that it would beep at me when I had to brake a little quicker. These stops were being counted against me as “hard stops” and I wasn’t having to slam on my brakes. These were stops where I had to slow down quicker so I didn’t run a red light on a main highway. I called Progressive a couple months later to complain about the sensitivity of this Snapshot and the representative preceded to tell me that hard stops are not the only things that can ding you. He also mentioned that they track how many miles you put on your car. WHAT???!!!??? He looked at my report and said that I was putting too many miles on my vehicle which makes me a high risk driver for them. EXCUSE ME?? I drive 2 cities away 5 days a week for my full time job and I drive the next town over once a week to my part time job. Also my daughter is active in sports and we had to drive almost every weekend for 2 months 200 miles round trip for Volleyball tournaments. ON top of that my 2 year old niece has had multiple open heart surgeries and they live almost 100 miles away. I do not understand how Progressive can penalize someone that HAS to drive. When you sign up for insurance you are asked what is the primary use for your vehicle. They are fully aware that I drive my car for work and school. ANOTHER thing!! When I signed up online for my Snapshot, I missed the small disclosure and was not aware of it at all verbally, that if you drive over 30 miles a day on average, than the SNAPSHOT program will not work for you. Seriously!!! I have never been so deceived and disappointed with an insurance company in all my life. I do plan on reporting this to the BBB and I will be sending an email to the CEO Miss Tricia Griffth. After all of this I googled Snapshot and the first thing that popped up was ways to CHEAT the SNAPSHOT system. This is a continued problem with all of Progressive’s customers and they are now devices that customers can buy to cheat the system into thinking that the device is plugged, when in reality it is not. This Snapshot program is a total failure and I advise Progressive to revamp this process to make it more effective for their customers and them.
That is all, thank you (mic drop)
This is a totaly fake site
You would be wrong about that.
My brother in law had wreck about a month ago his truck actually rolled all the way to the ditch as you can imagine the whole bumper was bad so was the front tire, thank god his okay. Progressive gave them a rental car for about a month. The insurance called upset saying why they still had the rental car well technically the insurance has not gave them their truck back. As of 11/27/2017 my sister got her vehicle back . Today on 11/28/2017 my sister and her family start driving on the FREEWAY their truck starts going crazy with my nephews in the truck THEY ARE BABIES, this ugly disgusting pathetic disappointed insurnace gave them their truck back with the tire being bad. I’m so upset I could of lost my sister my nephews and my brother in law, 4 lifes could of been taken due to the people at the insurance being cheap when people make thier payment every month, Put your self in my position. PROGRESSIVE YOU ARE……
Progressive is a waste of money Do Not Use.

Claim No: 17-31-48021
Johnson County District Court Small Claims Judgment No: 17SC342
entered on October 27, 2017
The contract has everything to do with every claim we pay. If our insured violates their contract, there is always a possibility that the coverage does not apply.
That is the standard for every insurance company and for every contract that is made between two parties. The claim has completely been handled in good faith and we have followed every guideline set forth by the Department of Insurance.
The judgement is not made against Progressive Insurance so there is nothing indicating that Progressive owes for the damages to your vehicle. The default judgment was made against our customer and she was non-compliant, which is a violation of her contract.
Again, had the decision been made via evidence, we would have issued a payment. Had we thought our driver was at fault during the initial investigation we would have paid the claim. The physical damage on your vehicle and her vehicle do not support that the door was open when struck. All of the physical damages to each vehicle suggest that your door opened into a passing vehicle. There is no damage to the front of Jannette’s vehicle. There is no damage to the side view mirror which would certainly have struck an open door. Instead, the damages begin in the middle of her door which would suggest that something struck her rather than the other way around.
We had provided our customer all the evidence she needed to present to the judge. He may very well have rendered a different decision had she made the hearing. Unfortunately she failed to appear and the judge had no choice but to render his default judgement.
The default judgement for non-compliance does not change the fact that the evidence suggests that she was not liable.
Furthermore, as I have indicated in my previous emails, no violation for payment has occurred.
The ruling indicated that payment needed to be made within 15 days of the stamp. It has not been 15 days, so there is no violation. If you went to the court today and complained that the customer had not paid, they would indicate to you that there is no violation.
I imagine we will have a decision from our legal department soon. They will review case law and legal statutes and advise me how to proceed.
If you have made complaints to various parties we will simply direct them to the court doXXXXent which indicates the timeframe for payment.

“Women Must Be Quiet”
Does Progressive actually sell more policies by insulting Americans, AKA “cracker” or “whitey?” “Flo,” the beneficiary of the artifice of affirmative action, is an artificial citizen and femiXXXX terrified by the requirement of nature to succeed though merit, showing her artificial disdain for Americans and vomiting femiXXXX propaganda. The commercial is incoherent and hysterical. Americans must be repulsed by “Flo” while invading hyphenates love her. “Flo’s” must be the strangest commercial advertising campaign in American history, wherein citizens are insulted. Perhaps Progressive is on to something…Americans must be brutally abused with a huge dose of preposterously false guilt which will, in turn, compel them to purchase products. What! And, absolutely, Progressive is not engaging in base sexism, right? Enough incoherence and hysteria. Please have “Flo” change her objective to repealing “Affirmative Action Privilege” and the 19th amendment – Americans got rid of the 18th after only 13 years.
Does Progressive actually sell more polices by ordering “Flo,” the hired help, to insult Americans, AKA “crackers” or “whitey?”
Progressive IS NOT A REPUTABLE company. Based off of my experience as well as the reviews that are listed here. It is very true. You might as well save a couple of dollars and get the same same coverage with a mom and pop, fly by night insurer and get the same sub par service. Your best bet is to just pay a couple of extra dollars every month and get coverage from an honest and reputable company like ALL STATE or GEICO. Now I see why Geico is the largest in my state. I left Geico because I saved a couple of bucks with Progressive. Guess what ??? I’m going back to Geico !!!! I see why GEICO charges a little bit more. I will gladly pay the extra for quality service.
THIS IS A COMPANY OF CROOKS. I have never been so livid in my life. they tell me I am lying and I am wrong? they say they emailed me asking me to call them but I never ever ever got anything telling me to do so then they cancel my policy!!! I am now uninsured and cannot afford another policy anywhere. This is complete bulls**t. I have filed a complaint with the Indiana department of insurance. Any time I tried talking with someone from progressive they were extremely rude.
I have tried to send this letter via email but no one will give me an email for Tricia Griffith but it will go certified mail to her. I have never ever seen an injustice by Progressive but I will not stop here.
REF: CLAIM NUMBER 16-1729833, DATE OF LOSS 6/13/2016
Gentlemen:
Please note that we were involved in a flood in Brazoria County on May 29, 2016. We were not able to access the property to see what kind of damage for about 2 ½ weeks as we needed the water to recede. I called Progressive to report our 2002 Chevy Silverado 2500HD had flooded. Progressive had an adjuster come and access the vehicle. In the meantime that we were waiting for the adjuster, I called a certified mechanic and asked him if he would be able to fix our diesel truck as he specializes in diesel truck repairs. The mechanic said that he would be able to. I did have a conversation with the adjuster as to maybe selling the diesel motor but after I found out that the mechanic could repair the vehicle, I told the adjust that I was going to go ahead and have the vehicle repaired. I told him that we were going to keep the truck and have it repaired as I had already talked to the mechanic. He told me that if we were going to get the truck fixed then he would issue a salvage title. He approved for the truck to be towed to the mechanic’s place and he also approved for the payment of the tow. The adjuster also went to the mechanic’s place of business and told him that it was OK to go ahead with the repairs.
The adjuster then called to let me know that he had approved for me to get a $6,000+ check because we decided to keep the truck and it was going to be repaired. Never did he mention anything about a non-repairable/parts only title. He also stated that we could receive more money if we decided to give the truck to Progressive. I don’t understand why we would have spent all this money to get my vehicle repaired if I knew that Progressive was going to title the car as non-repairable/parts only. I was shocked to learn what an injustice Progressive has done even though, I was told that we would get a salvage title. My wife called the State of Texas and she was told that the only people that can change the title is Progressive even though my wife was told that it was the state that had done that. My wife has been told so many different things and also accused me of being stupid in other words after I talked to Travis Cowell.
We have been paying full coverage for the vehicle before and after the flood. My wife even had our coverage changed rom from 100,000 to 50,000 and it should have raised a red flag when the Progressive’s insurance agent changed our coverage as Progressive filed with the state a title for Non-Repairable/Parts only title. The only way I found about it is when my wife went on Friday, August 11th to the courthouse to get my license plate sticker for the truck as we had it inspected this year and we were also able to get an inspection and license plate sticker in 2016. My wife spent a whole hour on the phone with Progressive and was transferred over 15 times and then she tried to call on Monday, August 14th and was transferred over 8 times. She also called on Tuesday, August 15th and was transferred
over and over and all these times, she was told that they would have a rep call her but they never did. She spoke with Evan and Evan spoke to a Claims Supervisor and the supervisor told him to tell my wife that the policy could be re-rated and for her to call back tomorrow which was Tuesday, August 15th. I don’t think that we should have to go through any of this as we have faithfully paid our insurance premiums on time for 3 vehicles, a boat, RV and also a commercial vehicle. I have not had any accidents!
There is no way that we can afford another vehicle as we are in age and fixing to retire next year. I am a veteran and we have been with Progressive since 2004. If this claim cannot be resolved that I will take my business elsewhere.
Please do not hesitate to contact my wife, Ermalinda Davila, 281-799-XXXXX or myself at 281-352-XXXXX at your earliest convenience to resolve this matter.
If this cannot be resolved, I will stop here as this should have never happened to begin with. You have people in the field and people at the office that do not communicate and we are having to pay the consequences.
I continue to be incredibly impressed with the quality of the service personnel representing Progressive Insurance. I had the opportunity today to work with Crystal Alejandria in your customer service office. She was a pleasure, bright, cheerful and knowledgeable. Crystal is a real asset to your company.
Let it be stated that I DON’T OWE
Progressive any monies and was fully current with my policy and fiduciary responsibilities at the time of my cancellation.
Furthermore, at the time of my cancellation, I was paid current and another payment was not due until 8/18/2017. My coverage was current to this next billing date. I cancelled my policy with Progressive on 8/15/2017 and was already covered by my new provider at the time of cancellation.
Your attempts to charge me extraneous monies, ragardless of how “small” the amount, is being turned in to the Texas Department of Insurance for fraud. Progressive OWES ME for the remaining days.
In addition, any damage made to my credit from your leaving my cancelled account with a status of an unpaid balance will be subject to legal action.
NEVER has a Progressive representative been able to find my account by my name (there are only 7 people including myself with the spelling of my last name), my address, or phone number. They are only able to see it by the account number.
NEVER has a Progressive representative allowed me to just get to the point of my call; phone waiting time plus dealing with the inanem non-productive prattle before getting to the reason for the call: 30 min to 1.5 hours. Ability to handle the reason for the call, never met. ALWAYS had to demand, asking gets arguing, a supervisor to get tasks at hand taken care of.
Had to threaten a couple months ago to file suit when they refused a ONE TIME request to alter my payment date to TWO DAYS LATER as my direct deposit was not going to hit on or before that particular months withdrawal date. (This does happenen periodicall for EVERYONE in the working world as we all know the dates for days rotate. Hence, regardless of direct deposit in on’e income and due dates of bills, it is a guarantee it will be off at some point. The Progressive rep tried to tell me I would just have to deal with a two day lapse in coverage and be penalized, pay a fee to start up my insurance again and have that mark on my insurance record. ABSOLUTE BULL@HIT.
I told her go right ahead. I’ve been recording the call (which I did as I was tired of the nonsense and wanted proof of what I deal with when I am forced to engage on the phone with Progressive) and that if she went through with that action I would then move forward with a lawsuit.
Without any communication, she apparently changed it to two days later for that payment. Mind you, I didn’t ask for a permanent change, I asked for a ONE TIME CHANGE.
Of course, from that time on my payment date was no longer on the 16th but the 18th. Whatever, fine.
I have now cancelled with Progressive after activating a policy with another provider and the representative is trying to tell me I owe money!!! I have NEVER missed a payment and another payment was not due until 8/18/2017.
I am sending all of my doXXXXentation to the Texas Department of INsurance and asking for fraud investigation.
The beginning of this post is what I sent in an email which was returned to me as supposedly being a bad email address.
I am tenacious woman, I won’t be bullied nor will I pay money I don’t owe.
If Progressive is the fantastic entity is presents itself to the public, you will remedy this post haste.
If not, I will enjoy having my car paid off in full by Progressive for my trouble.
Hello, On Friday August 11th 20117 Progressive was contacted by my mom I had started my policy in May 2017 on my mom’s bank account and Samantha was my representative. I paid that way until July I used my younger brother’s account to pay for my insurance at the end of July I contacted progressive and gave them my new bank account and some how they went in my mom’s account twice to try and take payment and it caused her an 50$ over draft on her account my mom contacted progressive and asked was they going to take care of this the lady said no! so my mom asked to speak to her supervisor and the supervisor said they are not going to fix that problem with her bank. At this time my mom was furiated and said to the supervisor that she has three son’s with progressive and they can switch and the next thing I know they cancelled my policy and sent my payment back I didn’t cancel and my mom is not on my policy so how can they cancel my policy if I didn’t tell them I was leaving ? Can someone from corporate contact me on this matter at (937)554-XXXXX. I would greatly appreciate it.

WOW!! I WAS GIVIN FALSE INFORMATION ABOUT MY INSURANCE PLAN!!! PRETTY SCREWED UP!!! THANKFUL FOR APPS THAT CAN RECORD PHONE CALLS!!! I WANNA TALK TO CORPORATE ABOUT THIS ONE!!!!
My name is Travis Bernard Robinson and According to the record provided by your company to LexisNexis, I am being confused with a Travis James Robinson, Who was once a policyholder with progressive and filed a claim for an accident that happened in the state of Utah. I can assure you I am not the person your company and progressive confuses me to be and I Travis B. Robinson never resided in nor visited the state of Utah. I’ve already contacted the Florida Department of public safety, who states and has confirmed that none of the information concerning Travis James Robinson is on my record under license number R152**28***. I too was once a policyholder and an underwriter who happened to be attentive to details saw the confusion and was able to correct it, now that I am trying to return the confusion is happening again. If you need a copy of my record (Travis Bernard Robinson) to clear the inaccuracy in your system please let me know. I need our identity separated immediately in your system and the issue resolved promptly. Although I Travis B. Robinson and (he) Travis J. Robinson share the same birthday. By our name middle initial alone, we are two different people. Our driver’s license number, as well as our social security numbers that you guys have and can confirm in your system, should also be sufficient proof we are not the same people. I’ve sent emails and no response regarding progressive messing up my identity and how they are going to fix it.
This place is a joke. It’s staff is demanding and rude my fiancé doesn’t have a college degree and was going to have him pay over $400 a month for insurance I’ve never heard of that there reasoning !? He doesn’t have a college degree have the whole phone convo saved and going to see if anyone would publish that they are descriminating against someone who doesn’t have a college degree.
I had to go to another large company after 11 years to reduce my auto insurance 200.00 a month, Yes two hundred, and they lost my home insurance too. Now to be far I had a small bump the car in front of me (2200 damage 3 years ago), & in October it would come off, but 384 tp 128 is a big difference per month. And my home insurance went to 2,500 from 5000 deductible.
You think they would want loyalty for 11 years, guess not. I called them and told them I moving them out, nothing, like let us check with upper management and see if they do a weaver or something, NOPE not even a suggestion. Sal
On March 22, a Progressive client rear-ended me while on my way to pick up an Uber fare. It took me THREE WEEKS to get the claim approved, even though I had a police report to verify my claim. The company dragged its feet at every opportunity so that I was out of a car and out of work for TWO MONTHS.
At no time was I told that Progressive would not pay my full missed wages because I did not file on my own insurance (which required a $500 deductible which I didn’t not have) until it was time to settle. What was the agent’s offer? Less than 1/3 of what I was due.
But that’s okay, even though this 65-year old disabled grandmother could have taken the company for tens of thousands of dollars via a medical claim, I played fair and did the right thing. But next week when I’m back driving for Uber, you can be damned sure I’ll be warning my riders about how Progressive cheats little old disabled grandmothers over a measly (to them) $1000.
i disabled as well filed a gravace and polcy was cancled

4 weeks ago a gentleman who had vehicle coverage through progressive hit a mailbox before driving through my son’s yard and hitting two parked cars in his driveway. The man driving hit one car, pushed it into a tree and then bounced off of it and landed on top of a suburban.
We have received the police report stating who was neglectful (the driver) and who the victims were (my son and DIL); however Progressive is now stating that he was “not in control” and therefore they are not responsible for the damage. They were unable to obtain his statement, as he unfortunately passed away following this accident. Due to this they have to “assume” the lost control of the vehicle prior to hitting anything.
I thought that was the purpose of insurance, you lose control of your vehicle in the ice and hit another car, insurance pays. I would assume not many claims are paid under the assumption “the insured had total control of the vehicle and still hit the other care”.
Progressive has proven to be an unreliable and not forthcoming, they do not stand behind their customers and deny claims for unrealistic reasons.
Frustrating and disappointing .
being a CEO of a company as corrupt this this you should be ashamed, you are allowing a simple claim of less than 5000$ go this far. A man hit two parked cars and somehow we are responsible for the damage he caused? He hit two cars that are over 20 years old, that belonged to two very young adults; and rather than make things right, you choose to punish people who have not liability in the accident by finding loop holes in your policies. I would be embarrassed and ashamed of myself, but of course I have morals that many others likely do not.
“Stop this madness.” I am fed up with your stupid commercials and the outrageous quantity on TV. Because of them I will never seek insurance from Progressive.
Worst insurance company ever. Started my policy March of 2017 its now April 2017 and I am canceling my policy. The insurance processor I worked with ILLEGALLY put in incorrect information that I NEVER AUTHORIZED. Doing so, my rate was cheaper and they sent correspondence multiple times to me saying my rate was increased due to previous doXXXXentation. I simply asked could I have a credit on my bill due to the representatives illegal mistake and they said no it was not her fault. I am not a valued member of progressive and I don’t appreciate having to pay for someone else’s mistake. Thanks progressive for your horrible customer service and illegal business
seams u not the only one i think time we get in touch with each other get a lawyer togather, seams progrssiave is acking out side the laws and so are the people clear pattern is beeing seen in there actions, i love talk to u and like know if u join me with joint sute agest them, and i very serrous if u get a lawyer i live in ohio make shure they handle bouth becuase i see class action sute ariseing from this and there actions,

Worst experience ever with a insurance company currently
Totally disappointed is beyond anything I can say !!!!!!
Had damage done to my roof with the recent storm winds where 63 miles an hour heavy rain and some hail ….
Call to have them come take a look…
insurance adjuster came pulled his ladder out of his SUV lean it against my house and looked at my roof didn’t even climb on the roof to inspect ….
The progressives inspector commented on how many shingles of mine were laying in my yard..
Told me there was a spot were 4or 5 shingles are missing in a group shingles missing all over my house most of the damage was to one side …
Then proceeded to tell me that he thought there was less than $500 worth of damage ,matter of fact he said $455.03 ..
My deductible is $500 . Told me he felt my shingles were at the end of their life expectancy.
Funny when I took out the insurance progressive never bothered to come out and spec my home but now tells me they feel that my shingles are too old…. refuses to replace my roof….. needless to say will be looking for more insurance somewhere else…
I lose out in the long run I guess ..
With a new insurance company I cannot claim my damage now ,so progressive thanks for the real good screw job !!!!!
get a roofer to say diffrent then u sue them for
not lawyer but get 2ed perrson expert say some
thing diffrent get lawyer see u got case
u got nothing to lose
Why does a Supervisor associated with Policy Services think its funny when a customer asks a legitimate question? I was able to identify a gap with your online payment option feature and when I brought it up to the supervisor, he laughed at my question instead of writing down the known issue and escalating to the appropriate individual and/or group investigate.
Customer concerns should be a top priority of your operating model to decrease compliance issues in the future.
Please coach your Supervisors on Customer Service friendliness and talking points when they are unsure on how to answer a question.
I have noticed for years that Progrwssive commercials make men, especially white men, appear like sissies that are dominated entirely by Flo or another females. In one commercial the guy is wearing a purse and is afraid to speak out because of his alpha-wife. Another one has a wussie guy dancing around with a huge dollar sign like an idiot while a composed black couple looks stunned and bewildered, then Flo dismisses him to go take his brake. A reoccurring wussie character is a skinny little red headed guy who is subservient to Flo and seems rather mentally challenged and, of course is an obvious sissy. I am tired of the false narrative where companies like Progressive continually attempt to portray men, especially white men, as blundering, stupid oafs or wussies that have to be corrected and controlled by women, who are smarter and possess a greater understanding of the real world. I would never buy insurance from a company that continually marginalizes men as some sort of Social Justice agenda. You know that you are doing it, I know that you are doing it and many thousands of others know what you are doing, so get off the ridiculous false narrative about the stupid white male. It is too obvious and only tends to brainwash the low information consumers, who are probably not the best customers to target anyway, except that they tend to fall for the other false narrative that Progeesaive is a good company to do business with.
Are you kidding this is the most ignorant thing I have ever heard beside theses other comments
I want to get someone to look into these Insurance companies. It’s highway robbery. I need info on whom to contact other than ROBOTS on 1800 numbers. There has to be a solution
I have been a loyal costumer for many years. I have a clean driving record with no history of claims or accidents. My monthly charges are slowly climbing. The corporate company states an increase is due to the increase in claims in my area. How is that my fault? Why is it an Insurance coming charges every month to pay for coverage, yet other’s get penalized if someone else uses it? It’s complete fraud! Insurance companies make too much money off me yearly as it is. The value of my car isn’t even over $1000. I pay that EASILY in insurance annually. So how do we get some attention drawn to this situation? This is ludacris
Dear Glenn,
As CEO of your company, I feel you should be aware of those of us who are uncomfortable that your spokes model also did XXXXX. I’m sure you can find the images if you do some kind of a search. I don’t know how I came across it, as I don’t seek XXXXXographic images, but it popped up one day.
Since then, I’ve found your pop-up ads on hotmail, and other venues to be so offensive I’ve begun to resent your company, even though I believe(d) you folks seem to be responsible citizens. However, I find this model repugnant to look at, and each time your ad pops up I swear to myself, I’ll never do business with a company who uses XXXXX stars as spokes models, even though I am not philosophically opposed to nudity. But something snapped in my brain and I can’t get back to the way things were before when I was able to ignore the person.
Again, I’m sorry to complain, but please find a way to keep her image from ads that are on my hotmail.
Thank you…
A. Duncan
I care more about the policies raising every other month. “pop up” really? Sorry, I never have XXXXX….”pop up” on my computer. hahah
On January 12, 2012, motorist Jose Mayen had a flat tire (blowout) and plowed into my backside of my motorcycle on the SR 14 freeway near Santa Clarita in Southern California. I received a severe concussion along with other injuries. Progressive sided with Mayen via a fabricated post accident report. Officer Greengard said I caused a sideswipe: and Jose Mayen made the claim that he received injuries even though he was in his auto and never tumbled 37 plus feet where I bounced off the freeway concrete at 50 mph at heights of 6 feet in every bouce.
Officer Greengard said he arrived at the accident site at 11:11 p.m. but he actually arrived at 12:00 a.m. Also the accident was pushed another 200 ft beyond the original spot.
See Youtube video “SR-14 K 1 of 2 Greengard not a part of the first initial responders” Also look in the Sechret Weapins Channel to see other videos that I made.
Nobody from the California Highway Patrol, Viking and Progressive insurances and Mayen never came forth to tell the real story. If it wasn’t for the 911 call report that places everybody at the right place at the right time this fabricated report would have been the official report.
Is this how Progressive makes money or for the most part to save money by siding with officers that write fabricated reports which is a felony? I would give Progressive no stars for this coverup.
my daughter involved in accident 6/12/16, police report states it was other drivers fault. unfortunately, we didnt pick up collision for this latter part of the year, so ASSUMED other drivers insurance who was as fault picks it up. Progressive was being put off by other insurance company because driver and passenger were never returned calls. Now story has changed and progressive had even said to me that the police report basically doesnt count when there is a discrepancy because they did not see the crash occur. The statements of the other driver and passenger appeared 2 months later and the whole process handled so unprofessionally. We are definitely cancelling our policy when this is taken care of and making sure other consumers know this for future consideration into choosing an insurance company
I was involved in an auto accident (I was hit by another car) it became a 3 car accident turns out all parties involved have Progressive. I was just curious if its standard policy for Progressive to use IAA to tow vehicles from tow yards to be inspected after an auto accident. I was advised by the owner of the tow yard that if IAA picks up my vehicle I will never see the vehicle again, but progressive is advising that they use IAA to tow away my vehicle and they take it to IAA to get an adjuster to take a look at the damage, that makes absolutely no since to me especially when progressive has repair locations in my area. Can someone pleas explain to me exactly what is the correct process? How can you total a vehicle off that you have not even looked at?
So I bought a motorcycle that had a salvage title and that title is still in progressive name I have been calling for the past 3 months trying to get someone to give me a duplicated title or a power of attorney on this title so I can get it in my name. this was a present for my son for graduating collage and he has not even been able to ride it. I have spoke to 6 different people who send me to someone else who then tells me they will have there manager or someone who can help me call me back has not happen yet I spoke to the agent that handled the claim in the first place, he told me oh I am going on vacations so I cant help you right now really. This company is a big corporation and no one know what they are doing, this is a easy processes if someone would just take the time and do this, I will never use progressive and I will make sure people know how they run there business because customer service is not what they say it is.
Why can the Insurance Reps say that “storage costs” will be paid within a reasonable amount of time, (but not know the “reasonable amount of time frame”…….then say on a late date, and when asked , that He did state this, but try and change what He stated, on a voice mail, the original discussion and agreement. Does Anyone at Progressive know “what a reasonable amount of time” is…..
Progressive then tried to deny any of these FALSE & DECEPTIVE SATEMENTS Existed, even though recorded on Voice Mail…..Watch out for Jesse, Doug Kitchen, , & Angie….
Anyone?, WHAT IS A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME?
I would like to know why every change to my Progressive motorcycle insurance policy requires my Rewards level to restart at Silver. I’ve used Progressive Insurance for about 12 years. Never had a claim or accident. When I buy a new motorcycle, ya’ll issue a new policy (instead of adding it to my existing policy) restart me at Silver rewards. When I move from one address to another address, ya’ll issue a new policy and restart me at Silver rewards. I’ve called and asked for my “new” policy (even though it is the same policy) to reflect my current rewards level, and the agent always tells me that he (or she) is leaving a note for someone else to do that, but it NEVER HAPPENS. I should be at Emerald Rewards level now, but I’m back at Silver because I recently moved to a new address and ya’ll issued yet another new policy. Has anyone EVER made it to Emerald or higher with you guys? Your “Rewards” plan represents a promise you never keep because you make it virtually impossible for anyone to get up to the higher levels.
Dealing with progressive has become a nightmare. I did not hire an attorney. Huge mistake. My vehicle was rear ended by a Progressive customer back in April 21, 2016. My vehicle was not approved for repair until May 3, 2016. I got the vehicle back from the shop on June 14, 2016, it was delivered to me at work. I turned in the rental that same day. I broght the vehicle back the next morning. The vehicle was not safe to drive on the road. I was not going to expose my family or myself in any danger driving an unsafe vehicle.
I have had to deal with 3 different adjusters, and a supervisor MRR . Every time a new adjuster looked at my vehicle they would keep denying the fixing on my vehicle. They would also give me false information. I was left 10days without a rental. From the 15th thru the 25th of June.
My son that is in the Navy was supposed to be taking this vehicle back with him to his next post but by the looks of it, I don’t think it is going to be possible. Now, I’m going to have to find another way to get my son out to serve our country. He is 19 and I can not rent him a vehicle to drive back to where he is going to be stationed because of his age. He does not want to fly because he is tired of having to pay for taxi’s and Uber drivers.
If only, Progressive would keep one adjuster handling a claim, things would be a lot easier and faster when it comes to getting our vehicles fixed.
My vehicle is valued at $8,000.00. I mentioned to the first 2 adjusters it would be better for them to just pay what the vehicle is worth but no, they chose to fix the vehicle instead. They have spent well over 8K on this accident all because they thought it was going to be cheaper for them to go this route. The vehicle has been in the shop for 2 months now.
This accident was such a hard hit that my son’s girlfriend came out of the accident with a concussion. My son thank God was not injured he had only aches and pains from it all. But my vehicle was severly damaged. All I need from you all is to take into consideration on having only 1 adjuster deal with claims it would be easier for us and the shops that have to deal with them also. Every time a new adjuster goes to the shop people have to begin explaining everything from when they first started working with the vehicle.
You also need to better train your adjusters not to be telling people they will not cover certain things without getting a full diagnosis of the claim. This has been a big issue with the people I’ve had to deal with. This is just pissing people off. I know it has pissed me off.
Get your facts straight before you open your mouth about what you are going to cover. I have invested a little over $700 out of pocket for wear and tear parts. That’s fine I have no problem with that. I understand those are things I needed to take care of . But don’t sit there and tell me you are not going to take care of parts damaged because of the accident. I work evenings. I also don’t appreciate woken up early in the morning just because the adjuster has selective hearing. The shop person told the adjuster that there was a possibility that the vehicle might get fixed that day but they still needed to replace the rear window. Well, the adjuster woke me at 8:30am to tell me my car is going to be ready that same day. It did not happen. The rear window did not come in. I received the call that the vehicle was ready until the following week. Parts for the vehicle were getting denied because they were not directly where the hit was at. OMG. My son held on to the steering wheel for dear life he was waiting for the light to turn green when he was struck from behind and he was pushed out unto beyond the shoulder of the on coming lane. Several parts on the steering wheel were broken and so was the fuel tank part that was broken at the moment of impact. Boy, have these adjusters made my life a living hell. Even their supervisor needs to be better trained. I told her about everything that I have been dealing with and she doesn’t seem to care. She just tells me that if I need my car fixed I will have to sign a form. Well, little did I know that on that form it stated that I will have to cover the cost of the diagnostics ordered for my vehicle in the event that what I was asking for had nothing to do with the vehicle. She could have had the courtesy of telling me while we were on the phone what that form was about but no, she had someone else do her work. Of course I’m upset but I signed it anyway because I knew it had to do with the accident if not I would not be complaining.
I had never had any issues with my vehicle until after the accident. I am only claiming what I believe is fair. If I wanted to pull a fast one I would have hired an attorney and had let them try and take your company for all they could but I am not like that and I have taught my family to do the same. God is great and he knows my heart.
You need to hire an attorney and let them handle it all on your behalf. Yes, they’ll take 1/3, but my guess is you won’t be dealing with these claims people any longer once an attorney is involved. I’d see if you can’t find something else for your son to drive, and once all is resolved with your current car, sell it or the other next time he’s home. Also, won’t your own insurance cover some of the issues you’ve had to pay for??
I do not like your current TV ad, making Flo the protector of her yard and car, rediculas commercial. I change the channel whenever it comes on.
Why do you watch the commercials change the channel this is a non statement
Claims #165905000
I’m having a nightmare dealing with Anaya and Britney claim specialists. Anaya promised me that since it wasn’t my fault in car accident I would receive a refund for a deductable within 6 months. It’s been more than 6 months and when I called her she and Britney stated that other driver’s insurance State farm accepted only 20% liability and they cannot refund my deductible. Although they were supposed to take State Farm to intercompany Arbitration they never did. They just accepted what state Farm decided. Now I spent 800$ to fix my car even though it wasn’t my fault in car accident and Anaya and Britney are not following the procedures and not willing to even work on my refund. It’s becoming a big legal issue now. And as your customer I’m extremely dissatisfied. I should not be dealing with all this stressful nightmare if it was other driver’s fault and as my insurer you don’t do anything to help. And your claim specialists lied multiple times to me over the phone.
Please review the following email I sent – this is absolutely ridiculous.

Hello Christina,
Address: Kenner, LA 70062
Phone:(504) 464-XXXXX
Please allow me to express my frustration at this situation. I was forced to pay out of pocket because your insured would not give me his insurance information at the scene of the accident. Within a week- I then had to set up a collision claim using MY insurance company – because I had heard NOTHING from Progressive. I called and they informed me that there was no police report available (even though I was holding one in my hand and literally reading information off of it )- and said there was nothing they could do for my claim until they received. MY insurance company, Geico, was a pleasure to work with – they immediately sent an adjuster to evaluate my damage and called me that evening with an estimate for the total loss. However, I did not want to lose my deductible and since I was NOT AT FAULT – I wanted Progressive to be responsible for the damages caused by their insured. I called Monica for several days and sometimes more than 1x a day and left several voicemails – she returned my calls only after my attorney reached out. The time span of this was over 3 weeks!!!! She finally called me back, and while very nice and courteous, said she had not gotten back to me because she was “too busy” and said that Drew would be handling this matter and that my rental car would be totally reimbursed by Progressive – and that Drew could call and have Progressive match and take over the bill – THIS WAS NEVER DONE. Drew then called and said that Progressive had NOT SENT ANYONE TO REVIEW MY DAMAGE YET – keep in mind it has been 3 1/2 weeks since the accident, my initial phone call – 2 days after the accident – and I was VERY upset. Progressive then finally sent someone to examine my vehicle and Drew called back and let me know that it was a total loss, and offered me a very low figure as opposed to what my own insurance company offered. Although there was some previous damage from an airbag defect in a prior accident, Geico also adjusted accordingly for that – and still came up with a MUCH higher figure. I was then told that since it WAS a total loss, that Progressive would only be paying for 72 hours of my rental vehicle – which makes ZERO SENSE as I had already been in the car for over 3 weeks at this point – and that was due to PROGRESSIVE FAILING TO WORK ON THIS CLAIM IN A TIMELY MANNER. After this conversation with Drew, I once again heard NOTHING from Progressive – Drew told me he would see how Geico came to their figure, and get back to me. HE NEVER DID. As a result, I was FORCED to use my insurance company and LOSE MY DEDUCTIBLE because I simply can not afford to pay for the rental out of pocket until someone finally calls back or answers my calls to come to a resolution. I was forced to pay my child’s daycare late because of the financial burden of the deposit for the rental car – and the length of time I was forced to be in it – BECAUSE PROGRESSIVE DID NOTHING TO HELP ME OR PAY ATTENTION TO MY CLAIM. In addition to my injuries, soreness, and stress caused from your insured crashing into me – I had the financial burden and continued stress of NO RESOLUTION of this claim because Progressive was taking their sweet time, ignoring my phone calls, and not calling back with information. This situation had put my life on hold. Dealing with a toddler in a rental car is a huge inconvenience. Now, shockingly, you are unable to find the invoice – further delaying reimbursing me. I have been just passed around several adjusters – From, john, to Monica, to Drew, to now you. I was told yesterday that you would call back at 3:30PM once you had the invoice – and once again – no phone call from Progressive. I had given you the exact location of the Enterprise I rented the vehicle from – so I am very confused as to why this is being delayed further. I am extremely upset with how I was treated and how TERRIBLY Progressive handled this claim – that should have been VERY easy. I will be sending this to my Attorney, Progressive Headquarters, the respective Branch supervisors of all the adjusters involved, as well as sending my experience to the Better Business Bureau. I feel that I should be immediately reimbursed as well as compensated for the terrible job done by Progressive in this matter. Please contact me when you are able to do so – this has dragged on for 5 weeks and I am appalled at how little consideration your company has had for me. I am very sorry if this comes off in a rude manner , but I am very rightfully upset.
I’m having a nightmarish experience with Progressive. They have lied, misrepresented information, and refused to cooperate with me. Two months ago, as I was making a right turn into my own driveway, a woman insured with Progressive attempted to pass me on the right….in a bicycle lane….and broadsided my car. She was ticketed for the accident. I contacted a local repair shop about an estimate and was informed that they couldn’t do it unless a claims rep from Progressive was present. I contacted Progressive and was told that a claims rep wouldn’t “be available” for three weeks. Finally this was done, and an appointment was made to take the car for repairs, which were to take several days. We agreed that the work could be done for the amount of Progressive’s estimate. I’d barely come home from the shop when their manager called and told me he’d heard from Progressive and that they would pay only 90% of the estimate…..the other 10% would be my responsibility! HE should not have been the one to relay that bit of information! Progressive very underhandedly made him do it. I told him not to work on the car until I’d talked with Progressive. Their agent told me that this was “standard practice” but never bothered to mention that to me. I thought it over for a day and called Progressive to say that I wanted a check for the amount instead of leaving the car at the repair shop. We agreed, by phone, that I would receive a check for the FULL amount of the estimate. While I went to retrieve my car, the agent called back and left a message saying that the check would be reduced by 10% of what we’d agreed on. I said that I was not going to accept a 10% liability for something that was 100% someone else’s fault. We are now at a stalemate, and I’m getting more disgusted every day. To me, this is misrepresentation, deceit, and outright fraud. They should honor their own estimate, but obviously they don’t do business in an honorable manner. I’d certainly never consider buying insurance from them.
I am disgusted to have to write a complaint after only having progressive for 1 month.
They decided they should raise my rates $113 a month for no reason at all.
I called and was on the phone for hours with several different people from your company and then they just hung up on me with my issue completely unresolved.
I would like some explanations and answers before i report to the bbb and cancel my policy!
I was quoted for $736.00 give or take a few bucks for 6 months of coverage so I paid in full then got hit with an additional $1040.00 because I have no way besides my license (that was issued to me with in the past 6 months) to prove where I live and where my vehicle is currently at because I just moved to Ocala in December of 2015 to my brothers property so they decided to screw me over big time and I don’t have money like that to be just taken like that so if you ask me DON’T GO WITH PROGRESSIVE they will rip you off any chance they get for just 2 months of coverage they charged me $613 and nothing is being done about them screwing me over like this

I am VERY UNHAPPY to feel the desire to write this complaint. My 86 year old elderly mother’s property (privacy fence) was destroyed by an insured Progressive member by driving intoxicated. Considering my mother is very uncomfortable handling business of this kind, I represent my mother on all occasions. I contacted Progressive on the 23 April 2016 when the incident occurred and was assigned to the Raleigh adjuster MaryBeth McMillan. Initially she was apologetic for our incident. That was until I provided, per her request, 2 estimates. Being mindful as I am of price gauging, I contacted (4) companies. Two were reasonably low and 2 were exceedingly high. Therefore I provided the two lowest bids. Speaking to our insurance company (Nationwide), they suggested we pursue the individual who caused the damage than to file against our insurance. I am regretting do such now for the following reasons: My mother lives alone and has pets, she is afraid to walk her pets now that the fence is destroyed. Therefore we hired someone from the neighborhood to walk the pets 3 times a day and submitted to Progressive. The adjuster emailed me and said under no cirXXXXstances will we pay this. Even though we are the VICTUM. Second, the adjuster called all of the companies and questioned our estimates. She even called the pet walker and was extremely rude to him. He was at a lost for words considering my mothers age, that anyone would question why her pets needed to be walked. I have tried to resolve this directly through Progressive, however this adjuster is forcing me to obtain an attorney and pursue this legally. We are being questioned and drilled too death as if we did something wrong. Progressive customer was driving well above the legal limit, tore down our fence and we are trying to get it resolved. at this point, I will hire a contractor myself and not wait on payment from Progressive because its not fair to my mother to have such an eye sore on her property nor is it fair for her daughter (myself) to be treated like every item that we request reimbursement for is scrutinized. I would NEVER RECOMMEND PROGRESSIVE nor would I make the effort to resolve directly with an adjustor. I will be obtaining legal representation and I will NOT take any further calls or emails from this adjustor.
As so many others, we feel we are being treated as suspects than the victim.
I would appreciate a response from Corporate within 24hours of this comment.
I will also contact the BBB. Regina Ford
Unfortunately I have to take the time to address my concerns with Progresive on this site. Repeated attempts to get a rep to return calls. Agents switched without notice. Our current rep is argumentative, rude and dishonest.
I think so many companies have put aside their purpose of service and satisfaction. Why are we forced by law to carry insurance but not guaranteed we will receive what we pay for..
I hope the corporate office will read these concerns by their customers. All of these offices represent your name and reputation .
I will NEVER get this insurance again they’re all snakes and very rude I HATE YOU PROGRESSIVE! Your company will go down believe me.

Mr. Renwick,
Before I get to why I am writing this letter, I’d like to share with you a little story, when I lived in Brooklyn, NY the neighborhood had an Italian shoemaker that hardly spoke any English, but his work was second to none. Years later I moved away, about 290 miles away. But still once every 2 years I would make the trip with my shoes and boots in tow just to have him do the repair, some people thought I was crazy, driving to NYC, tolls, traffic, speeding ticket but all this did not matter to me, do you know why? His service. All of this just to have him resole my shoes and I did not mind paying the high fee, I’ll pay for a good, reliable service, which bring me to your company.
Your claim rep Paula Johnson is a second rate amateur insurance claim representative by the way she handled my claim, I don’t know why she things that a consumer is gullible and don’t know anything about insurance. One thing I know how to do is asking questions, questions that yours company reps place me on hold constantly because they did not know how to answer. your field adjustor stepped out of his car took a picture of the damage, never once inspected the car, looked at the body shop estimate than proceed to write me a check enough to cover the repair cost after he include my co-pay and was gone in 7 minutes. When I asked Paula what happened to my accident forgiveness program, she stated that I have not been with progressive more than one year to qualify for it, I have been more than 2 years. Then she said another reason I won’t qualify for that program due to the fact the damage exceed the amount of $50.00, yes you are reading it right fifty dollars. Days later I was talking to another claim rep at your company and she stated to me on record, yes I have the recording, that the incident should have been a no fault claim and not what Paula Johnson stated. When I spoke to Ms. Johnson about this she stated that her co-worker did not know what she was talking about and now it‘s reflected on my record. We have a term in corrections for people that operate in this manner, its call “criminal thinking”.
For the past 23 years I have worked in corrections, I have seen all kinds and came across a lot of crooks, your company have nothing on them, they should be ashamed of themselves. No need to reply
Disgusted customer,

Hey Progressive, you took out a homeowners policy out on my property without my permission or knowledge, withdrew money from my account without my permission or knowledge, and now refuse to refund my money to me. This is theft. Contact me NOW
I can’t believe the customer service I just recieved. All calls are monitored for quality and training but when it comes to pulling a call because an agent gives false information there’s nothing they can do about it. Our family PCS and had to transfer our insurance policy. We were told the balance on the previous policy would not be billed. Now we continue to recieve phone calls, emails, and letters in the mail. When I called to get clarification and explain what the previous agent told us I was simply told their is nothing we can do. If this is how you treat military family It’s best we seperate ourselves.
I saw a Progressive company vehicle blatantly run a red light this morning. They were driving quite quickly and aggressively. After numerous phone calls to Progressive numbers, I was finally sent to an Alert line, and spoke to a nice person. Obviously this one driver does not mean the entire company is bad, but someone driving a Claims Response Vehicle (as noted ON the car) should not be driving so aggressively.
PROGRESSIVE======REGRESSIVE
Worst company to do business with. Liars, Non-communicators and Thieves.
Do NOT give them access to your bank account for payment withdrawal.
They don’t even began to calculate a fair rate.
Resolution of an accident…………….forget about it.
They lowball estimates and vehicle values.
What do they care? They don’t since they’ve got you by the balls…………..gotta have insurance, gotta have a vehicle that is drivable.
I’ve been with Progressive since 2011. No accidents, no tickets, nada. Things seemed ok until my credit card was compromised and I had to update it in their system. After doing so, they took my payment for January but not for February. After receiving a nasty-gram from them stating I would be cancelled for non payment, I contacted them a second time with my new card. They still never took the payment and then cancelled my insurance. I wasn’t even made aware of the cancellation until 5 days after they did it! So after unknowingly driving with no insurance for almost a week, I get this letter and go online to try and sort it out again. This time I get a chat agent who tells me I have to get a quote and purchase a whole new policy only AFTER I pay for 2 months of “past due” payments. What??? She then tells me that she’s not a sales agent and can’t help me but rather I should call the sales team and get a new quote. Through all of my questions and concerns, I get nothing but generic scripted responses that all end in “our sales team would be happy to assist you.” Yeah, no. I went to Geico online while I was chatting with her, got a quote and purchased more coverage for less than Progressive was charging me before our conversation was even over. It was super fast, easy and a better value overall. So I guess I should thank the folks at Progressive for screwing me over. I ended up with a better deal.
I wanted too tell the CEO of Progressive Company, That I have been with this Company for Years!!!! I also wanted too tell him about The” GREAT CLAIMS REPRESENTATIVE” we had for our Claim Situation!! She Was The Best Person I ever talked too on the phone!!! She was so KIND, And Listened too Everything we asked about our Claim, ( Because we Do not Understand Insurance Talk) I have had a Progressive Claim Representative Before, But They DID NOT LISTEN TOO ME AT ALL!!!! ( I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND Too Anyone When they have a Claim Situation) Too ask For Emily Levier She is the BEST!!!! Thank you!!!! God Bless Lisa Fyock & Paul Freiss
We are so upset with our Progressive Insurance Adjuster. We hit a deer with our car on the expressway. The car was towed to the Ford dealer that Progressive suggested, and an adjuster was sent to check the car. When having the the conversation with the claims agent, we clearly told them that the car had lost the fluid in the engine and needed to have the engine inspected as well as the body damage. This was all in a recorded telephone call that they admitted to having at a late date. After the dealership having the car for six weeks, we went to pick up the car that the quote was for $12,000 in damages. We paid our deductible and went to check the car. While awaiting the part during the six weeks the dealer had it, they parked it on the lot. In checking the car we discovered many things wrong with the car. One being that after the body repairs were complete, someone then dented one of the fenders that had been fixed. That however turned out to be one of the least of the issues. The car was checked for fluid by my husband before moving it from the dealer, the radiator fluid was empty. We were told that it was just an air bubble and they filled the radiator with fluid.
We left the dealership upset at the lack of care taken on the car. Two miles down the road the car over heated and froze up. The adjuster for Progressive never even checked the engine for the loss of fluid and neither had the dealer. So the car was towed back to the dealer again. This engine was now run without any radiator fluid and the engine got so hot it quit running. To us, this definitely compromised the engine of our one year old vehicle. The adjusters answer was to blow off the fact that the engine fluid was never part of the quote or even inspected. He didn’t do his job correctly but now they say ‘oh, it was just a hose that failed’. It wasn’t a hos that failed, it was part of the accident that was never looked into because Progressive didn’t take the time to do it. They have no way to guarantee us that the engine wasn’t damaged because of this and refuse to take responsibility for their employees mistake. We should not have to keep a car that’s engine was compromised in this way just because of the mistake and shoddy work of your adjusters. You don’t have to be a mechanic to know that a car run without coolant will overheat the engine and compromise the future of that engine. We will be contacting the BBB about this and will never recommend Progressive to anyone. Customer satisfaction is definately not one of this companies priorities.
WOW! Yes I agree with you 100%, we all need to file a class action lawsuit against Progressive! All these complaints of customer service at Progressive, I’m very surprised that the Attorney general hasn’t stepped in yet. I HATE progressive. All rude claim advisers, adjusters, and investigation unit! I have been waiting for 5 weeks to get my vehicle approved for repair. Just nasty attitudes, reps not returning calls, OMG on and on…it just doesn’t stop with this stupid company!
I will NEVER refer anyone to this company…totally insane!!!!
BEWARE….
The worst service I ever Experience in a 5 years. Was in not fault accident , and guess what for almost 7 days we’ve played phone tag with the claim representative; for almost 2 weeks my car was sitting at the towing parking lot, than they send me the list of body shops in Columbus notwithstanding I reside in Cincinnati. Now I need to pay out of pocket for my rental vehicle because my policy covers only for 30 days, and deductible as well. But is that my problem ? Why it took for you almost 2 weeks ? I talked to supervisor ….. of course turned out ineffectually…… but I can tell you one thing THEY DON”T CARE , CUSTOMERS ARE NOT MATTER TO THEM AT ALL.
Hello Cindy,
I received an email today from Aracelli and I am not in agreement with it at all. As your client I am requesting an appeal on this decision. With this request I no longer want the claim adjuster Aracelli to be working on my case. It appears that she has no willingness to counter act the decision that was reached. Do not sign off on this because I am not in agreement, as I stated to Aracelli I did not express agreement to her. In the interim of this appeal being filed I would like the following provided to me,
1. Any statements submitted to Mercury from their client
2. Any drawings or photographs taken
3. Who was hired to come to this conclusion
4. I had a witness in the car and why did Aracelli refuse to take his statement
It seems that progressive is on mercurys side and not working for their own client. This was definitely not my fault as I have stated and once again I want to reiterate I am requesting an appeal, I want a new adjuster, and corporate has also been contacted. I hope to talk to you very soon.
Claim 15-4250144
I would never recommend Progressive Insurance to anyone! First of all my husband and I were involve in an accident involving one of Progressive customers vehicle which he was not the driver this happen in 9-13-15 which the his girl friend we were told was driving your customers car ran a stop sign and we hit her. The lady was giving a ticket for the accident. The adjuster that handle claims for your company will not returned calls or emails very unprofessional!!!!!!!! We could not even get Progressive to fix my Yukon our insurance had to get involve to fix it, and now we cannot get anyone to return our calls for the medical issue. Y’all force people to get lawyers, or etc. This is the most unprofessional company I have ever been involve with I guess when you pay for cheap insurance you get sorry service. I am glad we are still living and not dead so our families don’t have to deal with y’all. if you can find it possible would someone please get in touch with us if not we are going to take other matters to resolve this
I have been dealing with a claims adjuster who does not get back to me in a timely manner, or doesn’t at all for the that manner.
I picked up my car not fully done because the car rental was expiring and they have yet to do anything about it. If this is how they handle all claims I would beware and go with another company!
I received an email stating that if I did nothing some person that I do not know would be added to my insurance. Thinking this was just some type of spam email I pretty much disregarded it as I could not imagine this scenario ever being legitimate. However when I got a second email I thought it would not hurt to call and give limited info to see if this could in anyway be real. I found it to be real and totally based on the home address they show in their records. I live in a manufacture home park and they did a complete lot renumbering a couple years ago thus when someone at my old address got a license (I Guess) they were going to be put him on my policy with no request from me. I did get this cleared up and asked that my account be flagged for this to never happen again. She stated that she was unable to prevent a person being added to my account without my request from occurring again. This is totally beyond belief and can’t believe it is even legal.
Up until now I have been very satisfied with Progressive but this is just so flagrant and in your face that it outweighs every single “That A Boy” you folks have ever got from me. Just so you are aware I am actively searching for my other insurance options with much urgency. I am also going to post both the email I received from Progressive and this reply to every forum and venue I actively visit.
Just switched to Geico because Progressive increased my car insurance premium. The reason I was given was that Progressive is raising their rates in TX due to a recent large number of claims from flooding. My car didn’t flood because I don’t drive it in high water and keep it garaged. I’ve been with Progressive for 5 yrs, and have never filed a claim. No accidents, no tickets, nothing. My car’s value has depreciated over 5 yrs. So for being a prudent, safe, low risk driver I was going to be penalized for all the drivers who filed claims on flooded out vehicles. It took 15 min to switch to Geico for higher coverage, and I’m saving $119 a year. Why screw your best customers when they’ve cost you nothing. Dumb move Progressive.
My name is Kevin O. Williams an I am listed as a Diamond Customer ; however, that distinction obviously does not matter; especially to this company. My situation is on November 18, 2015 my son and I were preparing to return home from an event. Because my leg was stiff ( I had hip surgery in July 2015) I asked my son to drive us home. On the way home a deer ran into the front driver side of the vehicle causing damage. Now my son is an excluded driver from our insurance and I understand that. My issue is that the claims rep. is stating that even though this is a “No Fault” accident Progressive won’t cover it because of the exclusion. I ask the claim rep. if I was driving and experienced a medical emergency and my son was in the vehicle with me, was he stating that my son couldn’t drive me to the hospital…and he said yes. Now I have been with Progressive for many years. No accidents for the last five years. I pay approximately $296.00 per month for 12 months per year which is $ 3552.00. That amounts to $17760.00 that I have paid this company. Over those five years I have received nothing from Progressive. Like I informed the claim rep. my son is not allowed to drive my vehicle but if he was to walk into one of their Office’s and state his name; that wouldn’t stop them from taking my payment. I have maintained full cover on my vehicles for many years with Progressive…even when other companies have offered a lesser payment. Why stay? Because I could tell others I stay with Progressive because I like the way they treat me as a customer. Well, I can’t say that after this incident. For the amount of money Progressive makes off of loyal customers like myself; now when I need them they focus on a piece of paper and tell me my life is worth less than that piece of paper. I will now forward this email to the company President and find a company that will truly respect loyalty…
I have talked with four representatives, from your company, I was transferred four times, a Sharon Bessemer was to be connected to me, I waited twenty minutes. I left a message with her voice mail, that if she didn’t call me back, I would cancel my policy, it has now been one and half hours and no reply. I have been a good customer for many years. The request I have is so simple.
I would appreciate someone with authority to call me.
Sincerely,
Darlene McGrath account # 50558727
Progressive,
I love that you have the Snapshot program and am glad to get any premium discount possible. What I don’t agree with is how the device registers a “Hard Brake”. I was on a major four lane highway doing the speed limit of 55 mph. A traffic light turned yellow and rather than run it, I stopped from 55 mph in a short distance, which caused the Snapshot device to log a “Hard Brake” and sound it’s beeps. When I checked my trip history on the website, it showed 8 hard brakes instead of one. This happened more than once, since the Snapshot device was on my vehicle for 3+ months. Knowing that the device registers like this, could lead a driver to run red lights to avoid the number of “Hard Brakes” recorded, which would have a bearing on the calculation of their premium discount. It just doesn’t seem fair.
Thanks.
Claim # 15-1927443
I was involved in a accident on June 12th, where the front end of my passenger side was damaged along with the side panel. Progressive referred me to a local body shop near my relatives house. The appraiser called me to say that my car would be ready for pick up in a little over a week. It actually took me a month to get my car back from the body shop. Less than 24hrs of me picking up my car, I noticed a loud knocking noise coming from under the dashboard on the passengers side. I have never heard this weird noise before, and it was weird that I was now hearing it after the repairs on my car. I emailed my claims representive and called the appraiser back about the noise. He had me to take my car back for it to be looked at again and determined if the noise was accident related. I explained to him that the noise didn’t occur until after the repair. The appraiser finally gave me a call back after a few days to let me know that he gave the body shop the okay to fix the issue. When the body shop called me to pick up my car, they said that it was a screw loose. A couple of months later, the exact same noise from the exact same place occurs again. I called the appraiser about the issue again, and he assigned someone else to come out and look at it. I had to call the body shop and get the contact information for the appraiser after a few days went past because I never got a call about him looking at it. After getting the appraiser on the phone, he tells me that the issue isn’t accident related. He goes further to tell me that the issue is common in my type of vehicle. I explained to him how I never had this problem until less than 24hrs after I picked up my vehicle from the body shop. He ignored everything that I told him and proceeded to say that he is confident that Progressive will not pay for the damage. He said that he will submit his comments to his supervisor and give me a call back with a definite answer. That was a week ago when he had that conversation on the phone, and I haven’t heard back from him since then. I’ve tired to call my claims representive and her supervisor multiples times, but I haven’t gotten one response from neither of them. I even got another claims representive on the phone, who claims that they made notations to my file, and mentioned that she would put in request for the claims supervisor to give me a call back within the same day. Still, I haven’t heard back from anyone with Progressive and it’s been almost another full week. At this point, my car still isn’t fixed correctly, and no one from Progressive is responding to my calls to resovle the issue. I will continue to make my way up to corporate until I am heard and treated like a valued customer. All I want is for my vehicle to be fixed the way it was prior to the accident, not broken.
Hi, my name holly, I live in utah and well I have an odd request to make to you the progressive company. I have been told by many people how much they love flo, I also love flo. I have been told by many people I remind them of flo or I look like her. So I have decided I just might be her for halloween!! Haha. my question to you is, would you or could you provide me with a progressive apron like flo and the two buttons she wears on the apron? I believe I could come up with the rest of the costume. I would be so very grateful and see this as a good thing for me as well as the company Progressive, you get an extra flo out there representing and selling your wonderful insurance on Halloween night 😉 thank you for your time and please let me know.
I have a complaint. I originally became a licensed driver in NY state in 1989. In 1994 or 1995, I drove my girlfriend’s car and was stopped. Her insurance card was not in the car it was in her house, which was in long Island, NY. Before I could rectify the incident, we broke up. Since I couldn’t prove insurance coverage, my license was suspended. I basically could not afford the fines at the time, (well over $1,000. ), so I moved to NYC where I wouldn’t need a license. Fast forward 26 years, I had to buy a car because I could no longer get my 81 year old mother around on public transportation. I was given a quote of between $650 and $700 per month at full coverage, due to your policy of discounting driving experience prior to the last three calendar years at the time of application. Notwithstanding the fact that I paid the fines due from 1994 and 1995, took and passed a written and road test, and that prior to my suspension in 1995 I had a total of 8 points in six years with no accidents. The last points were from 1991. I feel that my prior driving experience should be counted so that I can receive a quote at a lower rate. I will turn 57 this month, I went back to College as an older person last year, and will graduate in the Spring of 2016, but my car is in a rented driveway wasting away because I can’t afford the insurance rates. I went to and passed Driver Education in high school, and have no recorded accidents on my record. I have proof of everything I have claimed above; i.e., my Drivers Record from DMV, my college transcripts, etc.
It would please me if someone from your company could contact me and rectify this apparent injustice, with some type of waiver. I could understand if I was some kid with a horrific driving record, but I am middle aged, bordering on being a senior citizen, who has driven for years, with no accidents.
Please respond to Marc Bailey, ** Sutter Ave., South Ozone Park, NY 11420, Tel. 646-498-****, email ma*****@hotmail.com.
Thank you for your time.

CLAIM# 15-3138332-01
I have been a Progressive Ins. customer for years, this complaint is in regards to my auto policy. I have never made a claim on my auto policy, I recently had an accident where I ran over a lane divider and caused damage to the bottom of my vehicle, radiator support and A/C condenser. Prior to making my claim, I had my vehicle looked at by the dealership where I purchased my car. I was fully aware of exactly what damage was done to my car. I brought my car in to the Progressive Customer Service location near my work,and dropped it off. 24 hours later I recieve a call saying that there was no evidence of impact damage to the bottom of my vehicle. After listening to the Progressive reps, blaten lies, I then explain that the vehicle had previously been looked at by the dealer and that I could show him exactly where some of the damage was that Progressives authorized mechanics could not find. The rep then said he would have the shop take a closer look, but was first asking me when could I come pick my vehicle up. According to the Progressive rep. qoute” i told the shop to do it right this time and remove the bumper cover” At that point, the following day. I recieve a call and all of sudden the damage is now visible! Now according to this Ace Mechanic, he sees the cracked radiator support, but still has not found the damage to the A/C. I was then told, I would recieve a return call 8/27. I recieved a call from the Progressive rep, i was told that it looks loke the condenser was damaged by being hit with gravel. And it’s been determined that this damage is not part of the rest of the damages. the radiator support which was not even detected before is directly behind the damaged condensor. I provided pictures of the incident location, and it clearly shows the divider where it’s been hit numerous times and where there are bits and piecies of broken concrete that’s been knocked off. Now by the progressive reps description, “damage looks to be from a peble” It’s been determined that it was a peble from somewhere else. First of of for Progressive to call me first and say that no damage could be found on the vehicle, to now saying everything that I explained to them has now been located to some of the damage was done by diffirent gravel / peble is absolutely ridiculous! Ive now been told the solution is for me to not only pay my deductable, but in additional 300.00 for a condenser and refridgerent. My A/C was working fine the day of the incident, as soon as it happened, i brought my car home and parked it. The next time I went to drive the vehicle the A/C would not get cold. Also the progressive rep. Dennis at the location in Metairie La, explained to me that the A/C was fully charged and is hold ing a charge, the problem looks to be electrical. the compressor isn’t coming on. It will come on a little. This explanation, was an absolute lie! Remember, at first no impact damage was observed and I was asked if I wanted to come pick it up. NO, I WANT MY VEHICLE FIXED! I have since been in contact with Mr.Robert Love, he is supposed to be a claims supervisor. He is the rep. that has come up with the unexceptable solution to pay an additional 300.00. I have tried to contact someone to speak to about this issue, for the last week. I continue to get the run around, Ive one day been given ext.numbers and last names to Progressive employees to the next day being told “it is against company policy to give customers ext.numbers or last names” this whole ordeal is still ongoing and I will continue to move up the corporate ladder with my complaint. I will make sure, the below listed people do hear my complaint.

It is amazing to me that Progressive operates in this fasion, an insurance company is supposed to be there for their customers and protect their investments. For such a large company, that spends millions on advertising. Advertising, one thing and treating their customers absolutely different! I really hope, that I just havn’t found the right person to speak to and not just come to the realization that This is how Progressive treats their customers! If i continue to not recieve any responses, I intend to file a complaint wit the BBB, maybe then I will recieve a response.
Progressive needs to pay our small family owned business Albright Machinery a 160 day old past due transport claim for the amount of $85,000.00!
I was rear ended in my 1995 corvette with 32000 miles. Cosmetically car was fixed. But rear amp for sterio. Again right rear amp. Right rear hit. They say has nothing to do with wreck. And right after wreck put key in ignition and the chime that let’s u know your lights are left on or key left in ingnition sounds sick. Again they say has nothing to do with it. But yet my apple I phone was smashed in wreck. Kinda makes u think that progreesive doesn’t care. Will be changing insurance co. And still pushing to get fixed. Bad insurance co.
I just learned my policy canceled tonight for not providing proof of prior coverage. I provided the proof of coverage over a month ago and Progressive even scanned the doXXXXents into my policy and I am able to view the doXXXXents I sent. Last week I noticed the inbox message when I logged on threatening to cancel the policy. I reached out to Progressive and after about 20 minutes, the agent finally saw their mistake and advised he would take care of it. He was very apologetic and said disregard the cancellation notice. Well the agent didn’t resolve it, as my policy canceled tonight. I was not aware and only found out while checking my emails tonight. I called Progressive tonight and they were not very helpful and didn’t care. I even spoke to a Supervisor and she kept stating Progressive did not make a mistake and stated there was nothing she could do about it. Really???!!! I think Progressive purposely cancels policies just to rip-off customers. You pay them and they cancel you for some ridiculous “lie” they make up just to take your money and not have to provide coverage. I will definitely be contacting the Better Business Bureau and the Commissioner of Insurance on tomorrow.
I am having a similar problem with progressive. They are giving a headache with repairing my rattling door lock which started after a road accident. Also the automatic door lock ceased functioning from the day of accident.They claim the door locks were not affected by accident .This is a safety issue for me and my kids .Progressive needs to be fair to accident victims.

Hi you probably dont know me but im one of your companies customer. Me and my family been with progressive for a long time.We are now a diamond custo er.Recently someone tried to steal my car and vandalized it and i filled a claim as i was supposed to.The person who was assigned to do the estimate on my car obnoxiously made is estimate innacurate to an extent that obvious damages he didnt take in consideration , the parts and their total came from unknown source and his conclusions where nowhere reasonable.I got my own price list to the part of the part needed which he said was all that i needed he used to his advantage and used dealer part numbers with his parts( take into consideration this is an expensive 2006 BMW thats also rare).Long story short, i confronted him and said that i didnt think he was accurate and that i thought that he wasnt following procedures because his estimates would nowhere close bring my car into a pre-accident condition.And what i mean by obnoxious is , ill just give one of many examples..my trunk was pried open in the incident so on his estimate he put down that i need a new trunk latch and another small plastic part but thought that ripped apart trunk lid where the trunk latch attaches was ripped like it was paper,he didnt agree that it was damaged..He said he did the best he could help me and by not taking me seriously didnt think much of my concern.i contacted the local claims office and actually stopped by and got greeted by the estimators supervisor, i told him what was going on and he said he would work with me and not to worry and he did to a certain extent…now , for past ten days doesnt call me back and is ignoring me..im not going to go on and on because there is too much to write but to sum it up between irrigularity in the estimates, totals that on paper said that i got paid that i never recieved , – from inacurate people that at that point werent helping me with my claim,a bounced payment check that i had to pay the fee for ,weeks ive spent dealing with this that i had take off work countless hours and parts that i had to buy out off pocket and hours spent working on the car myself because of shortage of funds and to top it all off up to this day from the time this incident happen* been sleeping in my car *because my trunk doesnt lock due to the fact that i need a new one but no luck with somewhat fair assistance from the insurance company ive been with for long time.If you looked at everything you woukd see all im asking for is bare minimal and looking the other way about lots and cant even get that??!!I really hope there is someone there from the over head of this great company that can help me because i know this isnt and not the kind of customer service that Progressive Casuality Company stands behind. Thanks. Please email me back at earliest convenience.

I moved from a town that had 63,985 people living around me and there was crime all over the place and accidents every day, now I live in a town that has 15,930 people living around me, with VERY LITTLE TO NO crime and accidents per day. That’s around a 1/4 of the population with much less crime/accidents. My driving record is flawless as well. So with that information here is what happened to me, I called Progressive to change my billing/gauging information. The customer service representative told me that my rates were going to increase around $450.00 USD per year. Here is my problem with this increase, you can not justify that amount of money increase when you look at the facts. The area I live in now is in the country with it’s surrounding areas being rural, and the majority of the land is in Federal/State parks, and forest preservation. There for the rate of growth is limited which means fewer automobiles on the road compared to where my old gauging locations was. This rate increases is outrageous, I could see a small increase in the tens of dollars, but that’s far from the “going rates” that you (Progressive) told me how much more I’m going to have to pay. There is no justification in this observed and outrageous increase. I want to hear from a senior executive/office from Progressive Corporation very soon on how this matter will be fixed.
Im not happy with progressive anymore because they lie to people and when caught in the lie they change the story to fit their lie.
I have been a customer for 6 + years. I paid my premium last month and was charged a late fee eventhough i was told i could pay it up 13 days late with no problems. Then my rate was jacked up. The customer service said i had to pay the bill before i could change my due date because my policy was up for renewal but that i could change on the next month. I contacted them to change it this month and was told that i couldnt change it till i paid my bill this month.
Im so sick of the lies im getting from someone on the phone at this company that im going directly to the corporate headquarters with this.
But after reading the other bad reports on this site i dought that even the head office will care. I have Never had any accidents and have been driving for over 1 million miles as a commercial driver. And have been driving for the past 35 years. i have never been so disappointed with an insurance company than progressive and hope they will try to fix this problem.
I would like to comment your commercial media campaign. Love your commercials. Strong outta the box imaging that resonates well to your target market. You have done a great job branding Flo and the lowest price machine. Well done and always amusing!!
I just want to comment on the recent TV advertisement that takes you back through the centuries to when they burned witches’…this is not being progressive (rather regressive). I was really disgusted by this ad and disappointed that you even okay end it to air.
Your ad agency really messed up on this one. They should be looking ahead, not back. Maybe something like the Bruce Willis movie where cars are flying (centuries ahead).
Hope someone in top management can see this. Thank you and no I don’t have any dealings with your company.
I feel the need to add to this long list of complaints. I was in a no fault accident a week ago when I hit black ice here in Missouri while driving my boyfriend’s small SUV, which I never drive but it was at night and my car has terrible headlights. The ice carried the vehicle out of my control, over an embankment, and rolled down to land upside down in a ravine. No airbags deployed and it is a miracle I’m even alive. Both my boyfriend and myself have been on the phone all week trying to get our “claims adjuster” Gustavo Garcia, to help us figure out how to get some return on the vehicle and my hospital bills. He keeps saying he’ll call back the next day and doesn’t, and when we asked to speak to a supervisor, after being told we would see no financial help in this accident, we were told he was out of the office but would call us Friday. It is 4:30 pm Saturday and no call from the supervisor. It is now a week and one day after my accident and the vehicle is still upside down in a ravine because we cannot afford to get a crane to get it out, nor do we want to run the risk of Progressive holding the removal of the vehicle against us before they get a chance to see it. Needless to say we will be trying to sort this out and then switching insurance providers.
Another of many unhappy customers,
Kellie G.
We had been with Progressive for many years, clean record, we’re very decent, responsible parents and so are our kids. We have been dropped by Progressive Car Insurance because my son who didn’t know any better as well as us; used the RoadSide Assistance from Progressive and even had to pay a difference of $85.00 from his own pocket twice; No Accidents at all, he’s car was having problems with the starter. I’m so disappointed at Progressive for giving us that kind of treatment after all the money they have make and without even considering the fact that we have kept a clean record. We are a hard working family, always doing the right thing and teaching our kids the same. Thank you so much Mr Glenn M. Renwick (CEO). You don’t have anything to worry about because money for you is not an issue but for us, it is. Very Disappointed parent.

I think the ad mocking Betsy Ross is extremely distasteful. Almost as a slap in the face of America and the fight for our freedom, including free speech.
PROGRESSIVE WAS THE MOST EXPENSIVE AND HORRIBLE MISTAKE MY WIFE AND I HAVE EVER MADE!!! Beware of their FINE PRINT and keen ability to AVOID PAYING a DIME!!!!
i am insured by progressive, hit by a progressive driver, she had a stop sign and hit me and I did they decided fault 50/50 – i never received a call from my insurance adjuster only the one representing the other driver, they have not paid my claim and continue to threaten me to sign release of claim. it is literally making me ill. i have had insurance with progressive for over 6 years – always paid, never had accident – i hate this company – they are just typical of what Corporate America is: the friendly faced girl in the commercials and greed and corruption in the background
After being with Progressive for over 5 years I thought I had a sense of security and safety about my vehicle UNTIL I walked to my Lincoln navigator after getting off work only to find that my keyless entry pad had been popped open and once I opened the door…. I was horrified to see that my stereo/DVD system was cut out of my dash board, all my vent covers cut out, my speakers, jarmen navigation, i-pad mini, wallet, money, make up, gym bag, work bag and keys were all stolen. And I was parked only 6 parking spaces from the elevator s at a well known hospital in Atlanta Ga. So now I call MY Insurance company-Progressive whom I have had FULL coverage on my vehicle to report my claim… Only to be ROBBED AGAIN… PROGRESSIVE INSURANCE did NOT cover the following : My speakers (because they weren’t Bolted down), my navigation (because it was only attached vto my cigarette lighter), my wallet, cash, mini i -pad, bags, MY KEYS and wireless remote ( which the theivs took along with my LICENCE to know where I live and they already know where I work… I was and am still upset, flabbergasted and totally UNSATISFIED with Progressive, not to mention the 4 separate agents that has been handling my Claim for almost 3 WEEKS Now. So unprofessional, So in organized and MISLEADING as a Company. I am Definitely switching companies. #ripoff # falseadvertising #shamefull #FloisFake
Wow just got told their not coving my hail damage to my car. This is a sad place. I will never insure nothing through them again. I have 3 cars and a boat through them..(not ever again). I talk and see alit of people and everyone said I should have done my research before having them insure my things.
State farm here I come!!!!!!!.
Good luck to progrsive .
VERY SAD TO SEE A PLACE LIKE PROGRSIVE LOSE SO MUCH BUSINESS..
I should had read my comment. It was hail damage. To all my cars.They said hail can’t chip cars ,will mine it did. My neighbor had chips in his paint.along with dents. Why should I be responsible for a act of god. That’s why we pay for insurance. 7/31/14. Can someone help get me car fixed the way it was? And I’m asking someone from progressive.. This is not fair to me or my family . phone 1810656XXXXx.
We had been with Progressive for 20 + years, clean record, we’re very decent, responsible People We had a situation on Oct 23, vacation with boat being towed to Lake Havasu AZ for Utah and was 9 miles from designation and the back trailer wheel area caught on fire, pulled over safely got fire out with extinguisher and then called tow co.with Progressive long story short they put us on hold then never got back after giving them all the information like a total of 15+ minutes , Never did a call back HAVE HAD NO ACCIDENTS on RV or BOAT at all . First time wanting to be towed EVER !
I’m so disappointed at Progressive for giving us this kind of treatment after all the money 20+ YEARS THATS A TOTAL OF ABOUT $ 9,800.00 they have make and without even considering the fact that we have kept a clean record. Plus we contacted Progressive over a week ago with NO ONE GETTING BACK TO US ON THE TOW ISSUE .STILL FIGHTING THE CLAIM .We are a hard working family, always doing the right thing and teaching our kids the same. Thank you so much Mr Glenn M. Renwick (CEO). You don’t have anything to worry about because money for you is not an issue but for us, it is. Very Disappointed Family with PROGRESSIVE, will not be endorsing
your PROGRESSIVE INSURANCE CO. WITH THE MANY FRIENDS AND RELATIVES WE HAVE. YOUR COMMERCIALS ARE NOT TRUE. VERY SAD YOU AND FLO !!!!!

I read all these comments. And it seems to me that progressive doesn’t like paying for anything at all. I pay my bill on time all the time. I had a stone come through and dent and chip all 3 of my vehicles. I put a claim on just one .3,100 in damage. That only want to pay about 800 dollars. That said the new chips weren’t from the hail storm. I was shocked to the point were I will find another company to insure my vehicle. if this was state farm I would never had any trouble .I will tell everyone the issues I had with progressive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am a home owner we recently had a storm come through and damaged my roof I call Progressive to have a claim adjuster come to my home only to be talked down to and told my claim has been denied I am very unhappy and will be finding other insurance and will tell all my friends and family to never deal with progressive
To whom this may concern;
In the very near future you will be receiving a letter which entails a business opportunity that I believe will brings millions of dollars to Progressive Insurance. In fact I believe this business proposal will continue to lift up the standard that Progressive Insurance holds for all its employee’s and customers alike.
At this time I personally thank you for your time and will be looking forward to you contacting me after you receive my business proposal.
Sincerely;
Ms. Terri Flieger
Dear Progressive Executive,
It is with great annoyance that I send this communication. I feel the professionalism and integrity of Progressive Insurance is subject to scrutiny based on the incident detailed below.
My wife was struck in the rear end by your policyholder on May 9, 2014. Immediately, they exchanged information and my wife went as far as to take photos of the two vehicles involved. They didn’t acquire a police report since your policyholder, at the time, appeared straight forward and cooperative and it was a minor infraction. My wife’s last e-mail to your representative “Bobbie Flores” explains in detail what subsequently occurred.
After several weeks of exchanging phone calls and the lack thereof, being that your representative showed apathy towards the matter and basic indolence coupled with your policyholder exhibited sheer irresponsibility, it appears our case was closed and we have been forced to make the repair out of our own pocket!!!
The concept that an individual can blatantly show negligence towards a matter that she obviously created, and her insurance company could hide behind minor technicalities and a flawed internal system to avoid a minor claim, is appalling. Logic would lead towards endeavoring to stand behind a reputation so extravagantly built through a plethora of television and media commercials, by practicing the solidification of such reputation through the adage, “actions speaks louder than words”; especially in this age of ubiquitous personal media!!!
Since your lower line representatives seem to be incapable of being effective, it was important to get this message to as high a level as possible. This way we have a clear understanding of the core values and culture at Progressive Insurance.
Subject emails and photos are available to be forwarded if given a proper email address.
We look forward to your sincere response.
Respectfully,
Mark Valle (corporatevisXXXXX@sbcglobal.net, 760-458-XXXXX
Never had insurance with progressive and they put an account in collection on my credit report. I called and gave SS# and address. After proofing it was not my debt they refused to contact the three credit comp. and fix their mistake. I was told if I paid the debt they could fix it or I would have to jump hoops and send them copies of my credit report to them for them to fix what the did. Holding my credit hostage to correct or collect your mistake is wrong! Fix the problem you created, it’s the right thing to do!
I was not pleased with Erika kluc the adjuster and I never was compensated for my accident
Claim # 14-1115455
My car was hit on the passenger rear of the vehicle. The at fault driver had their damage on the drivers front and drivers side of the vehicle. When comparing the 2 vehicles, it is obvious that the damage to my rear fender and door were done by the other vehicle. There was damage on her vehicle back up to the driver’s door, which lines up with the damage on my vehicle.
We had an issue with Progressive on our previous claim back in 2011. So type of issue. There was damage to our vehicle that was said not to be part of the accident. I found video footage from my wife’s work just before the accident, proving that the damage was in fact related to the accident. This is the same issue once again! I have not paid you over $25,000 dollars to have to fight with you over a claim. You are supposed to be defending me! Not fighting against me. Your agent Vinessa O’Conner, was not going to look at the other vehicle to see if the damage to mine was related. I have to do this defending myself! This is wrong and not what I pay for. I am very disappointed in the service I have been getting in these 2 accident claims. Vinessa O’Conner was very rude. She talked down to me like a child be disciplined, talking over me and interrupting me and time I would try to defend myself. Your company is more than happy to take my hard earned money, but does not back me when it comes time to take care of my claim!
The agent Renesha Noel was able to waive my deductable so we could start the repairs on the vehicle. This took some supervisor approval, but was done. That is the level of service I would expect my money to get me. I have been a loyal customer since 2007. I hold 2 vehicles, an rv, and home owners insurance with your company. I was very skeptical keeping my coverage with you because of the last claim in 2011. But I stayed loyal, and now I’m paying for it again. My parents had an issue with a claim with you as well and still I stayed loyal.
This matter needs to be taken care of. The damage on my vehicle was all related to this accident. I should not have to take pictures of my vehicles every day to show that damage was not prior. The least I would have expected from Vinessa O’Conner would have been to look at the other vehicle as well to see if the damage I’m claiming could have been part of this claim. I tried for 2 days to get in contact with her supervisor, Jimmy Rout. I left him 2 voicemails on 2 different occasions. He did not get in return my calls for 2 days, even though his voicemail stated he would get back to me the same business day if I called before 3pm that business day. When he finally did talk to me, he said that the damage doesn’t look like its part of the claim and that there is no leading damage to the dent in the rear fender.
Damage to a vehicle does not always show a paint transfer. These cars now a days are not build with steel bumpers. They are plastic and the sheet metal is very thin. This a very small dent that could have been caused by fragments of the other vehicle hitting mine. I don’t know, I was in the vehicle when we were hit. I was not a witness with a 3rd party prospective of the incident. I can only rely on your companies many years of experience. That Is why I choose to be insured by Progressive.
I should not have to fight my insurance company to get my vehicle repaired back to its prior accident condition. I will not settle with any other resolution. I this damage is not confirmed to be covered by Jimmy Rout today then I will have to take matter to the Corporate Level
To the attention of
Mr. Glenn M. Renwick, CEO

This is a corporate complaint regarding a Progressive Insurance TV commercial. My household typically enjoys the commercials with your spokeswoman, “Flo,” but the commercial in which she mimics the behavior of an enticing drug dealer on a street corner seems more appropriate for an adult comedy club than in a broadcast TV advertisement. My household found it deeply unsettling the first time we saw it, and now, months later, it hasn’t faded in its impact and indeed its impression seems to be worsening. It’s inappropriateness of content leaves us queasy and disappointed that Progressive seems willing to taint their own corporate reputation with such an unsavory association. Does this commercial genuinely enhance your corporate image and bring you increased business?
We hope that you reconsider your continued use of this commercial and that Progressive’s advertising department can find less disturbing and more creatively entertaining opportunities to promote your corporation’s business.
Sincerely,
Mary A. Laliberte & Family
I was an unfortunate victim of an auto theft on November 7, 2013. After filing my police report and contacting Progressive, I thought things will go over smoothly. That is not the case at all. After providing all my phone and financial records as requested to the insurance company, I feel like I am being targeted as a suspect. But not only was I being investigated,they harrased my parents, my daughter, asking them questions that did not pertain to my claim. For example, asking my daughter where does her son sleep? And where does my mother and father sleep? What does this have to do with my claim? This is a total insult on a hardworking single black woman who lives in Newark, who has never been late on a car payment or car insurance payment. If i lived in a different area, ex Short Hills, I nor my family members would have been so insulted. To this day this claim is still not settled and to add insult to injury, my mother and I have been scheduled for an examination under oath. I researched the web and contacted a gentleman name Rob Painter to see if he can help. I have never been so humiliated in my life by a company. I never thought Progressive would treat their insured this way. I am a victim who has been violated, not only me, but my parents and child as well. This is so unfair. Progressive is not a good company and I will tell my story to whoever will listen until this is settled. Even if I have to contact the media and/or newspapers to show how I am being discriminated on and treated unfairly.
Hello I have the same problem with progressive they are a rip off
BEWARE….. I was Rear Ended in April on a Thursday evening at about 5:30 p.m. of this year, sitting at a complete stop in a line of traffic facing forward when I was violantly hit from behind, I was thrown forward causing severe Neck and lower back pain that manifested the next day while i was getting my rental car seeing as how my car was not safe to drive. I was hit so hard that the change in my change compartment on the left side of the stearing wheel was thrown to the ceiling and into the back seat.
Taking the day off work to deal with the car, the pain became worse. I went to the Dr. Monday Morning and was put on medication. the pain kept me from sleeping well for weeks, I had to see a Chiropractor three times a week for about three month for treament and therapy, I am a self employed Hair Stylist and the time off for Dr. visits caused me to loose several thousand dollars of income, I was working with pain patches, medication and Ice Pack shoved in the back of my pants just to get through the day. NOW it is December and Progressive barely wants to give me money to cover my Dr. bills, nothing for all the lost income, pain, not to mention some house chores I was unable to do since I couldnt bend over and had to hire some one to perform!!! All this was presented in my demand letter by my attorney.
If you spent some of the money you pay for all your Flo commercials maybe you could take care of the victims of your “insured” clients. Pathetic company, This isnt over…..
Sincerely
Mr. Wyatt
I thought that a good commercial would be to have a family of flo’s mother, father, kids all with same uniform and hair. It would be kinda cool .

DO NOT INSURE YOUR CAR WITH PROGRESSIVE!!! Run from them.
PROGRESSIVE CARES NOTHING ABOUT PEOPLE…HUMAN BEINGS! CUSTOMER LOYALTY COUNTS FOR NOTHING!
I came to TX from AZ to visit my elderly parents. I flew. When I got here, I saw parents 86 years old having some struggles. I went back to AZ to arrange to come back for a month or two to make the house more elderly friendly. Three weeks after I get back to TX my father dies. Now I’m in the position to stay longer than I expected. I call and get a quote so I will know how much it would be to insure my car if I decide to ship it here. Coverage in TX IS QUADRUPLE what it is in AZ so, since I’m not staying here and my car is in the garage in AZ I just leave it there. I share a patio home with a room mate so my car is safe. I call Progressive and get a ‘storage’ policy since I won’t be driving my car for a while. Besides, I now have my dad’s van here in TX.
Then my mom’s home gets hit by Hurricane Harvey!! EGADS! I have to stay longer…only child, elderly mom…tons of paperwork and all kinds of stuff that she can’t handle.
I call PROGRESSIVE and they won’t let me extend my storage or regular coverage because I can’t prove my AZ residency BECAUSE I don’t have paycheck stubs from AZ for the last 6 months…quit to come here…my parents needed me. And because I can’t provide TWO utilities bills in my name from last 6 months because my room mate owns the home that rent from her!! Not unusual!
Now, I’m going to end up with a lapse in coverage because I can’t afford a 2500. 6 month Texas STORAGE POLICY, if I ship the car here…and they won’t even let me continue my previous full coverage or storage coverage for my car there.
A company I have been loyal to for years CANT HAVE MY BACK THRU DEATH, or HURRICANE!
PROGRESSIVE INSURANCE CARES NIL ABOUT “PEOPLE”! HUMAN BEINGS!
DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY!
