Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 47 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Consumers frequently complained about sudden and unexpected price increases across their policies, alongside severe difficulties when attempting to process, negotiate, and settle insurance claims fairly and promptly. Many reviewers also reported unhelpful customer service interactions, unresponsive representatives, and exceptionally long communication delays experienced during highly stressful accident situations. However, some customers also noted affordable pricing options available initially and genuinely helpful assistance provided during specific property or storm claims. These individuals appreciated the original rates, smooth handling of certain repairs, and positive interactions with dedicated company staff members.

Progressive WAS the best

Progressive WAS the best. They have outsourced customer support. Bad enough but,they haven't given them access to customer data. So,if you won't do their work, as in enter profile data progressive already has, then you are stuck. This strategy has been spreading through corporations for decades. The cost savings realized by this action is substantial. Apparently customer satisfaction is no longer considered worth the cost. Especially if outsourcing becomes the norm. Where do you go when service is bad everywhere? Geico? All of us need to refuse to do the vendors work.

UNTRUSTWORTHY - THEIVES

After having insurance with progressive for almost 15 years - first time - I filed a claim - We called them exactly one hour after the incident and they said they would handle - however because their adjuster showed up 7 days late - now refusing to pay for the claim - WORST INSURANCE COMPANY - THIEVES

Rates keep going up significantly year after year.

Rates keep going up significantly year after year, escalating higher than most other insurance companies. I've had enough.

In the past four years, I've used their Roadside Assistance two times. Both were horrible experiences. The second tow, Progressive was unable to find a tow truck, forcing me to find my own after waiting over 6 hours. Found a tow truck myself within 1 minute, and actual tow truck arrived in 7 minutes. Obviously, the tow truck companies don't want to work with Progressive. Don't waste your time and money. Go with any other insurance company.

Progressive - don’t do it!!

Fulfilling their request to continue receiving earned discounts has been a full time job. They required my husband and I to go through defensive driving despite being almost 50 yo with 0 claims or tickets. They also required my 18 year old daughter to have defensive driving and 30 hours of classroom training, which wasn’t a problem because she took both just prior to getting her license at 16yo. Apparently progressive only finds that acceptable for 2 years because now that she is 19, they require her to do it all again or we lose the safe driving discount entirely. She took an additional 6 hours of defensive driving when my husband and I did but apparently that isn’t enough either. She has never had a ticket or accident and gets the good student discount for being on the presidents list in college. But now they want me to pay another $100 for an 30 additional classroom hours in order to keep the safe drivers discount for the whole policy.

Update: I paid the money and she Took the additional 30 hours of classroom hours again, I sent the certificate to progressive 6x and despite receiving receipt confirmation, they just continue to email new declaration pages and the same bs patient schedule without the applied discount. My account auto bills in 1 week and these people are too incompetent to make the proper adjustments. I will spend another hour calling them again today. #fulltimejob

Deceiving

Deceiving. They sent me a renewal, it was the equivalent of an entire years payment. I was only reviewing my coverage and noticed that the $800+ fee is only for 6 months. My first 6 months was $400+, doubled my premium without any notification/ explanation. Shady business do not use!

Disolussioned customer

The customer service is kind and courteous until you file a claim. Instead of assisting in processing the claim, I was told that they were trying to prove my daughter, who was driving at the time of the accident, was living with me. This child is 33 years old and has not lived with me in 7 years. In the mean time my vehicle was reported to the state as abandoned and the storage for my vehicle was adding up; I have missed a dental appointment for a broken tooth, because a rental can't be obtained until they Progressive makes a decision. I don't live near public transportation, so a vehicle is a neccesity. Very disappointed...

Applied for business general liability…

Applied for business general liability insurance. Progressive went trough Liberty Mutual. They declined my application. Their reason was because our product is "imported directly from overseas." They were unable to explain why they only support U.S.-sourced products. I was confused by the lack of explanation and shocked about their unwillingness to support U.S. companies that import products --13% of all U.S. goods are imported.

They had also declined the application nearly two weeks ago but failed to notify me. Very poor experience. Will be giving my money to another insurance company and consider dropping Progressive in totality.

Progressive Insurance is UNETHICAL AND WORTHLESS

Progressive Insurance is the most unethical company ever. Recently my 40 foot motorhome broke down on a very busy interstate. Progressive Road Side Assistance was absolutely worthless. They got the location wrong, the could not find a tow company, they denied motel expenses because they claim the breakdown was wear and tear due to poor maintenance and so all ensuing expenses were denied, despite the fact that there is no preventative maintenance for the item that failed and all other PMs were completed annually. Progressive is a TOTALLY WORTHLESS COMPANY.
