Went out to get the mail today and here is a letter stating they are dropping my general liability with no apparent reason. It says type of business/commodity no longer meets our underwriting criteria for Motor truck general liability coverage. Did anyone else get one of these from them lately? Kind of puts a damper on things seeing it is required for some loads. Im also limited mainly to just them because t I am in NY and they are my only choice for coverage at a reasonable price. Guess I will just have to wait until Monday and see what they say on the phone.
Progressive???

I dont recall having gotten a letter like that, and as my policy with them renews tomorrow by midnite, I'm certainly interested in the explanation they'd have for you :/
-
I have Progressive also. My contract is still good for 7 more months. I have other options but they were the easiest to get insured with minimal down payment.
Definitely would like to know why they just drop you for no apparent reason. Should be some kind don't of consumer protection from something like that. It's not like we don't pay them a substantial amount of money just so they can say thank you, but we don't like your face anymore.
HurstDerailed Thanks this. -
I went with them and will renew with them for the price: I got quotes thru 2 agencies with a couple underwriters: nearest $ was $2,1++ more. No bueno por mi pantalones. I hear all these folks from other areas kicking annual premium figures @ 65-70% of mine...makes me think I'm getting hosed. I can't seem to find a cheaper alternative as of yet.
Derailed Thanks this. -
Ill know Monday. Funny how these letters always show up on the weekend when you cant do anything about it. They didnt drop my primary, just the general liability effective Nov.18. I can do without it but its nice to have for extra coverage and load availability.

Progressive didn't drop me they just raised my premium 700% when I seen a $31,k renewal I feel over

They wont put GL on my policy. This was 4 months ago, so I think it has been in the works. I do have to shop around. Got my renewal, $8200 for the year.
Derailed Thanks this. -

If you haven't had ANY claims at all you should try Northland when your ready to get a new policy. I'm assuming your restricted to a radius? They are able to check if your going out of that radius and not telling them so that could be the reason.
Derailed Thanks this. -
Thanks, I think I may have looked into them but fell under the dreaded NY curse. I haven't gone out of the radius or given any other reasons for this and there only canceling my GL. Probably some new requirements for their underwriting department.
