    Hopefully they are more competitive than when I had them in NH.

    Not saying its true, but...

    I have a friend who is a licensed appraiser in MA. When I told him I was going to use Progressive he basically told me that they have a reputation for failure to pay out when claims do occur and that is why their rates are low. He went on to state that many people had to file lawsuits and wait for the end result in order to collect on a valid claim with Progressive.

    Anyone ever use them before and have a claim settled?(I got scared away and re-insured with Encompass this year).

    Id be curious to hear answers on this, but I think its probably a bit of BS. I have my auto with them, but no claims.

    I've had no problems getting paid from Progressive when doing insurance crash repairs for customers. They are actually one of the better ones...




    But, if you guys think Progressive has low rates on motorcycles... Wait until some real insurance companies start doing business in your wacky-insurance state. Unless their rate structure is drastically different in Mass, they are usually one of the higher priced insurers for motorcycles.

    But this is after they've already decided that the operator has a valid claim, right? This is just saying they have a good accounts receivable department.

    My brothers car was totalled from hail damage through progressive. They actually called him to ask if his car had been damaged in the storm. He had a check in hand the next day.

    Just got a policy with progressive, their car rate was right around the other ins quotes, so was the compulsory on the bike. The full coverage comp/collision on the bike was entirely absurd, $2400 (around 3x what I was paying)

    I have used progressive for claims before. Had a bike stolen and the biggest question they had was why I was in Mass with a Maine reg (I was a student at the time). I did all the paper work they needed and sent the title. Got a check no problem. I still use them for my car and would for a bike i I had one on the street.
