In my mind, I DID let you down easy...if you were one of the regular poster here I would have really been direct and blunt...I kinda thought I was tactful, diplomatic and gentle...   smoochy: it should not count against you, as it was not your fault...it could count against you, even if not your fault, if it was the 5th accident in two years, because then they want to dump you for being Calamity Jane...

Had you moved from Pasadena to Santa Monica you most certainly would have wanted a return premium reflecting your new lower rated territory.   It works both ways. The premium in the higher rated territory is what determines what you owe, not the date on the calendar or hands on the clock.   Had you moved to a lower rated territory, Progressive would have issued a Return Premium within thirty days.   Progressive is playing by the rules of the CA Insurance Commission and they play fair.

Replying to: euphonium (Aug 11, 2006 7:55 pm) Euphonium,     So you say Progressive Isurance is not being decieptive when they accecpt my money for a NEW POLICY TERM knowing my new address without updating the price? My question stands. Why could I get an accurate instant quote if I was a new customer, but that they can show my NEW ADDRESSS and a price and not have to honor it? Can you explain why a new customer gets faster and more accurate pricing than a returning, loyal customer?    My driving record had not changed only the place I sleep and park at night. I realize that different areas are charged different rates BUT if 99.9% of people providing accurate information can get an accurate, instantaneous quote, what is the justification for giving less timely and less accurate service? OR simply stating BEFORE I paid in full for 6 months that due to my recent address change my rate could change.    In the 21st century that would probably take their computer programmers very little time to type: (If address change since last payment then CLEARLY post message before payment that rate shown may not reflect actual rate owed)    In my experience, they didn't post the potential for a rate change clearly or unclearly and that is suspicious    If they played fair I would still be their happy customer Replies to this message: tidester (Aug 12, 2006 10:26 pm) euphonium (Aug 13, 2006 8:10 pm)

Replying to: boycott_progre (Aug 12, 2006 7:05 pm) I think you complicated matters by letting your policy lapse. Why did you not do the change of address after you moved and before the policy lapsed? Just curious!   tidester, host

Replying to: boycott_progre (Aug 12, 2006 7:05 pm) When a Prospect first calls Progressive for a quote, the Prospect talks to Sales Center. The Sales Center personnel only know what the Prospect tells them and the Quote Desk of the Sales Center bases their quote on the address they are told by the prospect in the intitial call.   Policy Service Centers handle changes in existing accounts. The Policy Renewal Department issued your renewal based on address information known to it at the time they issued the Renewal.   It takes a few days for the communication from the Service Center to get to the Home office and then the Home office transmits the change to the Policy Renewal Center which is obligated by law to issue either an additional premium notice or a return premium notice.   As these different centers can be located in different places for they have different functions your patience is developed and that's O K.   Bottom line is it works both ways and it is fair. It appears your issue is the quality of timely updated communication with the company. In your case the additional premium is correct and owed.
