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.

Progressive is about the same price as other insurances, but they're flexible, fast, friendly, and it's easy to apply online. All in all, great service all around.

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.

I haven't put a claim in so I really don't know but as far as the coverage is and everything it was
I haven't had a claim with the company, but a family member has coverage and she couldn't think of good things about them!

Review Price at Renewal for Better Rate
Make sure that you do a new quote at renewal time. If I had stuck with my current policy, I would have been paying $50 a month more.

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.

Do Better Progressive
They're okay, budget-friendly, but they stick it to you when you make policy changes. That's why I'm shopping. If they'd take care to keep customers, we wouldn't have to shop each time the price hikes.

Finding Auto Insurance
When your insurance is due, unless you’re extremely content, check with a few other places. If your insurance goes up for no apparent reason, check with your company or the agent you’re dealing with to find out why. If you find the same coverage cheaper elsewhere, before changing, contact your agent or company again and see if they can match it or do better. And always look at the reviews of an agent or company before deciding. There are good and bad options, and many to choose from—try not to make a bad decision.

Progressive, a Plus
Very good—easily better than GEICO when it comes to claims. Their agents are well-schooled and provide relevant information in a timely manner. They’re not the absolute cheapest, but they provide good value for the money spent.

Frustrating
When I signed up for Progressive Insurance, I was told in writing that I could get a better rate on this policy and save by switching to Progressive Insurance. So I changed my insurance to Progressive. Not only did it cost more, but even though it was only about $10 more, I am still paying $191.00. This is unacceptable to me. These companies are taking advantage of us as consumers because we have to have a certain type of insurance to be covered through our loan agreement. This is what's so upsetting about the insurance companies.

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.

They didn't tell me it was pay-per-mile until after I signed up for it, and they canceled my insurance. They also made it seem like I was paying for a year, not 6 months. Lemonade is the cheapest insurance I can afford right now.

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, never answered after 2 weeks
There was an incident with no injuries and no apparent vehicle damage, but the other driver apparently filed a claim. The insurance company (Progressive) started asking me a lot of questions, often ones I had already answered. My first question was, "What is the claim—injury or vehicle? Details?" After two weeks, Progressive still never attempted to answer that.

Bad
I don’t trust them, and I’m scared to change—literally. I can’t find anyone who can do less than $782 a year for home insurance or anything under $80 for car insurance, with the payment staying the same. Progressive is known for raising my bill—every time I get a bill, it’s more. 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 over $1,000 for home insurance, and they wanted around $1,200 a year.

Progressive has become a joke with customer service
Constantly follow up on your payments, especially if you have to make changes. The past 4 months have been difficult keeping my insurance policy up to date because of a separation from my wife. They have messed up my account numerous times and just say yes to get me off the phone. Sadly, I’m a 'Gold status' client who has been with them for years. I’m not renewing my policy.

Price Gouging Vehicle Insurance Companies
My current vehicle insurance doesn't cover my 2003 Olds Alero, and because my daughter (age 18) just became a licensed driver, I'm paying double the premium as a second driver! I can barely afford to pay rent or for my other vehicle. Paying almost $600 per month for vehicle insurance is ridiculous!
