My friend told me she pays 270 or 280 some odd dollars A MONTH. :wtf:
She's racked up quite a few violations over the years, lol.
God, I couldn't imagine having to pay that much for insurance. |

I love when the powerbottom tries to act cool by picking on the weakest link. |

Figured I'd bump this thread.
I am going to drop my policy with Progressive after this period is over. I noticed on my renewal documentation that I am being dinged and not given the best rate for having in their words "not our most favorable" payment terms.
Seeing that I have never missed a payment, and I pay in full for 6 months, and have done so for the last 6 years, this is bull, especially when my policy is almost 1000$ for 6 months (and this is minus the annoyance that even though I have a perfect driving record and never made a claim, my rate has gone up!).
So yea, Progressive. |

What would be favorable terms? If you paid monthly? |

I guess, but thats more expensive, almost 180$ more over the course of 6 months.
So yea, I get a "discount" for paying for 6 months, but I also don't get the lowest rate... :wtf:
Such a ing scam. |

Yeah that does sound like bull and I'm surprised they can legally do that. I can understand charging you more if you pay only 1 month at a time because they're taking on extra risk, but I don't get the logic behind charging you more if you pay half a year in advance.
I mean I understand that they're losing the $180 every 6 months since you're paying in advance, but then they're trying to go back and make it up by raising your rates. :wtf:
I have Progressive too, maybe I need to start shopping around.

It also depends a lot on the area you live and park your car. I pay around $700 for 1 year comprehensive, but I know if I lived in Queens NY for example I would pay around $2,000 for the same coverage. |

| Nou, you should try out the Snapshot thing from Progressive. I think they take off 30% if you don't slam on the brakes or anything for a month. |

I just bought a car.
Decided to insure it (not like I have a choice in this state, anymore).
$37/month
Paid the year off so I wouldn't have to worry about it.
Aren't you guys proud? :D |
