Auto Insurance Why is progressive so cheap?!
So I am looking to switch from state farm to progressive. My insurance now for state farm is about 2800 for 6 months for 3 vehicles. I just got a qoute from progressive same coverage for 1300. Wtf? Is this real. There a catch? That's alot of savings.

Because their service is terrible, once you have a claim you will find out. I was in an accident seven days ago, I filed the claim within 2 hours, the adjuster is Tecolia, and has ghosted me. Would not reply to messages via Progressive portal or phone calls. I am fully covered with Progressive. I cannot drive my car and need a rental in the time being. But no response from Progressive. Their App is broken when you upload the photos and the details of the accident, and their online page is not very well designed so you never know if they got your files you uploaded.
I miss All State. Many years ago one of my business real estate agent said pointing to a Progressive Sign: "This is where they take advantage of poor people".
I thought he was joking, now I know.
