Progressive - Progressive (ASI) Non-Renewal for Wildfire Risk
Hello,
I'm in Oregon and hoping to get some insight on receiving a non-renewal notice on my homeowners insurance from Progressive due to a wildfire risk score of 21 (out of 50). How is the wildfire risk score calculated? A wildfire risk map and assessment released by Oregon State University show my property as being in the low risk category, so receiving this notice of non-renewal is a little confusing.
Thank you for any insight you can provide.
Progressive - Work Truck on freeway had a rock from it’s trailer hit my windshield (Oregon)
Was driving on the freeway and a ~2 inch rock came out of their un-tarped trailer and hit my windshield at about 65 mph. They did not have a rear license plate visible. Front registration plate was orange and I believe it to be an Oregon apportioned truck plate. I was not able to get a clear picture of their plate.
I spoke to our state police and they gave me a case number for insurance purposes. Went to file a claim with Progressive and it turns out my deductible ($500) is more than replacing the windshield ($388) so they just recommend I pay for it without insurance.
Shouldn’t the other truck’s insurance be paying for this?? I don’t know what to do other than pay for the replacement out of pocket and hope to make contact with the other party’s insurance after the fact.
He wouldn’t stop as I tried to get his attention but I was able to take some pictures… on the side of the rear trailer is a logo for “The Shaw Group” and some sort of identifying number (T1210xx… censored for this post).
Progressive - My golf cart hit my house, but insurance won’t cover the property damage.
Today my 3 year old hit the gas pedal on the golf cart and ran it into my other kids electric scooters/ the wall in my garage. I hopped off to grab stuff out of the back “trunk” type thing and next thing I know it’s gone forward and hit the house. Thankfully she was okay. She was scared, I was scared. We had a good cry. I have insurance on my golf cart. I called them up and they said after the deductible, the repairs to the golf cart would be covered but the damage to my other property (my home, my car, the electric bikes/scooters, my built in shelves and other random smaller items) will not be covered because I own those items. They said had it hit someone else’s scooters/house/car that would cover it.
When I got the golf cart, I called my insurance agent so I could add it to my homeowners policy and she said it was cheaper to have a separate policy for just the golf cart and to go through progressive. So this is what I did. I called my insurance company after hearing this news from progressive, and they said they could cover it under our homeowners policy- but that we would have to pay that deductible too. It wouldn’t be worth it to pay both deductibles. I am just surprised that progressive isn’t covering any of the personal property damage. Is this a normal thing?
Progressive - Do I need a Lawyer to get payment from an uninsured driver?
Location: Oklahoma
Long story kind of short,
I was in a car accident on Oct.4th, and the other party was at fault. At the scene they acknowledged they were at fault and their insurance looked up to date. At the moment, I felt that calling the police for a report was not worth the hassle, a mistake I know now. While at the scene the driver was on the phone with their mother and told them they were on their phone at the time of the accident, which she later denies. Additionally the drivers mother wanted to speak to me on the phone and was very adamant not to go through insurance and that they wanted to pay out of pocket, which I refused, I didn't think much of this comment in the moment but is important later.
I filed a claim with the insurance they provided and a few days later they told me they were not insured at the time of the accenet. My father reached out to the drivers father as he is the person on the title of the vehicle, and this is when we found out the drivers father is the Chief of Police for a small town bordering my city where the crash occurred which is in the same county. At this point we were given updated insurance from the driver and I made the claim with their insurance, which was denied as they were denying what happened at the crash. Some context to add to this is that this was a new driver and had their license for only about a month and were 16 and were heading to their first day of work at their new job.
I filled with my insurance who sent it to arbitration, and it was radio silence for 4 months and they would not even return my calls, thanks Progressive. I called today and told them I need an update today, and the new rep I got was amazing and told me everything I needed to know and they should have told me months ago.
Arbitration determined the other party was at fault, which was obvious from the damage, and they were not insured at the time of the crash. So it turns out they tried to buy insurance right after the crash and did not tell anyone.
Progressive wants to send them to collections to get some of my deductible back, but I would like to get my full deductible and loss of value (at the minimum). So my question is is small claims court enough for the $2k deductible and $2k loss of value, and do I need a lawyer? I have already waited 6 months, and while if I need a Lawyer I want them to get paid, but I feel like I shouldn't have to pay legal fees for this especially due to the criminal behaviour on their part.
Progressive - Car insurance increasing
I’m a newly insured driver (early 20s) and my car is over 20 years old. I only drive my car maybe 10 minutes a day 1-2 times a week due to driving anxiety. My first 6 months with progressive it was $200 a month. Now with my renewal it will be $250 a month. I’m wondering if this is normal, if/who I need to call to discuss why it has increased. I live in a very safe area. I’m new to everything and not sure what to do. From reading it seems mostly everyone’s rates are increasing but mine is still significantly higher. Any help much appreciated, thank you.
Progressive - Is there a time limit for claim payouts?
Got into an accident last September and filed a claim back then when it happened. Since then I’ve been scraping together the money for the (1k) deductible. Now i’m worried progressive won’t pay out because I took too long. Is that a thing or do they still need to pay out for it??
Progressive - Progressive randomly added a driver to my policy making it go from $120 a month to over $600 a month. How?
I noticed my bill in an email was way more than normal and checked my payment history only to find out it’s the second time they billed me for that amount since I missed the first time (I was on vacation).
I called and apparently they added some random guy. I finally figured out it was a guy I had in my car when I volunteered at World central kitchen delivering free food to hurricane victims. This guy rode in my car once for half the day.
They said they emailed me and sent regular mail telling me about the change. I never got them because the vacation. They will not tell me how he got added to my policy and at one point hung up on me and I did not raise my voice and was polite but firm in asking what happened. I still have no answer. And instead of refunding me the money they just paid my bill for the year with the fund they took. I pay monthly normally.
I did not share phone info or have them track my driving with progressive so I cannot understand how they added this dude to my insurance. I remember this guy rode a bike everywhere and since my insurance went up so much I’m guessing he has a bad history.
How did they add this guy to my policy?
I’m planning to change insurance providers any suggestions?
Thanks for any info
Progressive - Tier 3M with Progressive - what does this mean?
I noticed on my renewal for my auto policy with Progressive that I was listed in tier 3M. Google told me this is a high risk tier, but I have been driving for many years, have a clean driving record, and no claims. I am, based on my driving record and insurance history, a low risk driver. Is this a high risk tier? Does anyone know how these tiers are assigned? If I am incorrectly assigned to the wrong tier, how do I fix that?
Progressive - LexxisNexxis won't remove erroneous insurance claims
In 2022 I made a small insurance claim for water damage, $2k, with Progressive. Since then, every time I get quotes for homeowners insurance I get denied, or have to accept high rates, because the Lexxis Nexxus database shows I made 3 claims. A year ago I disputed these several times, and got a letter from Progressive that confirms I only made 1 claim. When I talk to LN, they tell me they've removed the claims, but over a year later I'm still getting denied by insurance quotes and told they are still showing up by the insurance companies. Is there an agency like the CFPB I can submit a complaint to about Lexxus? Or do I need to get a lawyer letter involved? I already have to deal with living in a hurricane prone area with high rates and these higher rates are crippling.

Progressive - Progressive added a person to my policy without my explicit permission
Location: Florida
So I'm frustrated with Progressive because they identified a person who was staying in my home temporarily and added them to my policy. This person has never driving or touched either of the cars on my policy.
They supposedly sent out a mail notice, which I could not find physically or even in my email, where I'm signed up for Informed Delivery and would be able to see any envelope that said it's from Progressive. I looked through my email to see the notices dated months ago stating the persons name and that if I do not contact Progresive by January 16 that they would add them to my policy.
I looked though the details of my policy today and that's when I found that they are listed as a driver. So I've been paying for this person to be on my insurance for the past three months.
I have to wait until Monday to speak with underwriting to figure out what happened and what to do.
My question is whether this practice is even legal in the state of Florida. From what I've seen, a lack of response of a notice does not indicate consent. My explicit consent was not obtained to make changes to my policy. I have not even talked to or seen the person added for months before the changes were completed.
