    Most independent agents hate Progressive but only us them because they have to. If they want us to write more business with them they need to stop competing with us and git rid to the communist CEO Lewis.

    Yeah, I’m sure you’ve stopped writing with Travelers and Hartford as well. Maybe if you stopped focusing on the direct writers and began to go after business in your own backyard (Captives), you’d be a successful agent, but no you’ll continue to look for excuses as to why your business is down and place the blame on a segment of the business that you have no control over. By the way, Peter Lewis hasn’t been CEO for 10 years….wake up!

    Progressive Insurance Founder Finances Liberal Politics

    Randy Sharp of the American Family Association feels the problem is Lewis’s use of that money for causes like legalizing drug use, and promoting abortion and euthanasia. “The profits from that stock go directly toward sponsoring these kinds of causes”. . . For those pro-family customers who do not want to support such causes, Sharp recommends they cancel their Progressive Insurance policies, which fund Lewis channeling of money to secular progressives.

    INSURANCE COMMISSIONER INVESTIGATING PROGRESSIVE INSURANCE

    By D.L. BENNETT The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Published on: 08/30/07 Georgia’s insurance commissioner has begun an investigation of Progressive Insurance for allegedly sending private investigators into a church confessional to spy on a couple who had filed suit against the company. John W. Oxendine ordered a market conduct examination into recent allegations of invasion of privacy, fraud and other misdeeds by Progressive Insurance Co. “Georgia policyholders should expect an open and honest relationship with their insurance company,” Oxendine said. “In order to assure truthfulness within the industry, when we hear of possible wrongdoing, we have to act promptly to protect the consumer.” The two private detectives allegedly posed as a married couple wanting to join the church. They talked their way into a private confessional at a member’s home and recorded potentially embarrassing details from several people there. The investigators were looking into Bill and Leandra Pitts, a Henry County couple who were involved in a car crash and later sued Progressive. The company’s president issued an apology on Progressive’s website last week. Progressive has 10 days to request a hearing. Company spokesman Shawn Fergus could not be reached for comment late Thursday.

    GLENN IS SORRY BECAUSE HE GOT CAUGHT BUT THE STATEMENTS OF HIS OWN EMPLOYEES INDICATE THAT SUCH TACTICS AGAINST POLICYHOLDERS ARE STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES OF PROGRESSIVE.
