The Best
The cheapest I could find. I only drive twice a month to the grocery store. The price of insurance in Louisiana is too much. I'm disabled and low income, so I can't afford much more.

It's okay, just looking for a better rate and not having to pay every month for the agent and miscellaneous charges.

Disappointed
I really liked Progressive and was referring friends and family to them. Then they increased my rate by over $120, saying it was because I bought a new car. I found cheaper insurance with State Farm for the same coverage. Then Progressive charged me $63 when I canceled. While their service was great, they did nothing to keep me with them.

The gentleman I spoke with who handled my SXS policy provided the best customer service I have ever had with Progressive. All others I have dealt with were not so good. I am still upset that Progressive did not investigate the accident we were involved in. There were 4 cameras that saw the vehicle in front of us slam on his brakes for no reason, giving us no time whatsoever to stop. When I questioned the driver as to why he did that, he stated that he thought the vehicle two lanes from him was going to pull into his lane, which never happened. He then lied to the police when they showed up. The cameras prove what I'm saying, and yet Progressive never checked them. Completely unacceptable. Now we're paying extra for something that was not our fault at all.

Fair or Unfair
The good thing is that they are available when you have questions. The bad thing is when one of two cars is canceled. The difference was only 1 dollar lower on just one car, which made me think having a second full coverage car only cost a dollar. I did not understand getting charged for 2 cars for 2 months when I only had 1 car and the second was canceled. There was no reimbursement for the extra, and the difference in the premium was unclear.

Watch Carefully
Don't settle on a price with the first quote and definitely do NOT go to a local insurance agent. They include their fee for profit in the price. Do it over the phone nationally.

Good value for price, but buyer beware.
Among the best-priced options out there. Bundling is a must. However, I had a chip in my windshield filled to save myself and Progressive a more expensive windshield replacement. A mistake, Progressive now counts it as a claim even though it was only $75, and now I have to pay a higher premium. I should have made Progressive replace the windshield.

Don't waste your time. Go with Progressive!
No matter how often I've wasted my time getting into these "lower your car insurance rate" deals, Progressive always winds up being the #1 recommendation. They charge about half what the others quoted.

I have never had a claim, so I have no idea what to share with anyone about my policy. The only thing I can say is that when I signed up with Progressive, the salesperson was very helpful and patient in explaining everything to me.

Overall, I like Progressive Snapshot, but it doesn't seem like the best way to get a discount when it only checks hard stops and fast starts. Many times, you need these to avoid accidents.

Too Expensive Auto Insurance for Seniors with Good Driving Records
They are very expensive. I just purchased a new Buick Encore and my insurance went from $78.83 to $132.83. I am a 60-year-old widow on disability. Everyone is talking about companies overcharging for years (25 years), and customers are receiving some of that money back as a refund. I would like lower auto insurance and to learn about this refund if it is real.

Poor survey questions
Your survey asks for ratings on aspects I have not experienced, such as claims processing. I have not had a claim, so I cannot evaluate. This is only an example of several such categories. Poorly designed and not applicable survey!

Sky High!
Rates are too high! I’ve been driving since I was 16 with no tickets, at-fault accidents, or DUIs. I am 61 now with the same record, and my rates are still high. I shouldn’t be paying a very high dollar for insurance, even on a bundle package.

Request re-quotes and save
When NC decreased rates last year, I called Progressive and requested a new quote for my 3 vehicles. They politely did that, and I’m saving over a hundred dollars a year just for requesting a new quote. I have never had to file a claim, so I can’t speak to their claim services, whether good or bad.

HUGE Price Increase After 6 Months - BEWARE
At the inception of the policy, the prices were great for Progressive Insurance. When my policy was up for renewal at 6 months, my insurance premium went up over $1,000.00 for 6 months. Nothing changed on my insurance, and I didn’t have any accidents. I was told this was because of “inflation.”

The insurance was fair but the price goes up over $50 in a 2-year period, that's too much
It was great until the price went from $170 to $190, and 6 months later now it’s $226 a month. I just can’t afford that on top of my $589 a month car payment.

Too Expensive
I would tell them how expensive this company is. After being with them for a year, they placed my 17-year-old on the policy. I had always excluded him because he has no license, and the company is charging me $500+ because they added him to the policy through the app and won't allow me to take him off. My insurance is one of the highest I have had, and I had to decrease coverage on the truck because it is so expensive.

Questionable Coverage 2026
Make sure when they offer Snapshot you watch what they explain to you. We never brought our driving experience up to 5 stars, so they have DOUBLED our insurance coverage from $564 for the first six months, and the renewal has been doubled to a total of $1128 for six months. We are changing immediately!
Robert
Verified Review
Most insurance companies
Starts out with a medium to high initial payment, then stays high for 6 months. Then, without any accidents, pull-overs, or any problems, the insurance company might decrease the rate by thirty cents. I haven't had any issues since I got my license back several years ago, but my full coverage payment is through the roof, and I can't understand it.

Too Bad!!
First, I was quoted $31.50 per month, which was $189 for 6 months, but the woman on the phone couldn’t find my quote, and the system wanted to charge me $380 for six months. It really felt like a bait and switch tactic. Really too bad because I had used them previously and all went well.

Bad Customer Service
They are horrible if you have a small claim that is under your deductible. I was rear-ended in October and no one will help me get reimbursed from the man's insurance because it's under my deductible amount. My agent is absolutely no help either. I'm up for renewal and I will change insurance companies.

I received no discounts for being a senior and driving less. Instead of getting discounts, it seems prices went up. I am undecided about recommending it to friends. Also, I changed banks and had trouble having my bank source accepted for payments.

Progressive was the only insurer I contacted as I needed coverage immediately in order to purchase a car in real time. I was charged $217.00 for monthly liability coverage, which I found to be quite high. I plan to end this coverage at the 30-day mark and choose a new insurance company.

Refuses to Fix My Damaged Vehicle or Reimburse Me

Essential question, repeated same, never answered after 2 weeks
An incident occurred in which there were no injuries and no apparent vehicle damage. But the other driver apparently filed a claim over the incident, and the insurance company began asking me many questions, often ones I had already answered. My first question was, "What is the claim? Injury or vehicle? Details?" After 2 weeks, Progressive never attempted to answer that.

Bad
I don't trust them. I'm scared to change. Literally. I cannot find anyone who can do less than $782 a year for home insurance and anything under $80 for car insurance with a consistent payment. Progressive is known for increasing the bill every time. How does that work? I hate talking on the phone, so don't bother. If you can find me something close to what I have, I could switch. I can't do it at over $1,000 for home insurance, and they wanted like $1,200 a year.
