How long before my authority is canceled/disintegrated?

It pays to get your loss/run and rate shop about 30 days before your renewal every year. Why did Berkshire raise your premium so high?

 

My rates didn't budge a dime. Sounds like Berkshire is gouging due to the current climate. Ever looked into Great West? I have an awesome agent if you ever want to get a quote from them.

 

Same as Progressive. I had them for car insurance, and they kept increasing it every year. Meanwhile, the last time I've even been pulled over was 2003, and I've never been in any kind of wreck, knock on wood. Same BS excuse. I moved on to GEICO, and it drops every year. Industry-wide increase my ###...

My first year with Progressive was 11k. Second year, they wanted 13k. No accidents, loss runs, tickets, nothing. "Industry-wide yadda yadda excuse". Great West wanted 16k. I went with them. They're more of a long-term company in my opinion. Plus, I like the vanishing deductible thing. And they have $5k towing insurance as well. I expect a good drop next time, since I'll have two years on my authority. *fingers crossed*

 

I'm surprised GW took you before you had two years under your belt. The two year mark is a good time. I feel strongly your rates will drop a few thousand per year at least. Progressive was a pain to deal with and they nickel and dimed me over everything. I shop around every renewal no matter what though. It keeps my agent on their toes and I have a good idea of what I should be paying regardless of who I choose.

 

I’ve had Northland for years. Seems my agent says every renewal that they have the best rate according to her. I’ve wondered if they push Northland due to there kickbacks.

 

I'm a new venture and great west put me at 12k a year, granted I've owned the truck for over a year now but didn't need an authority for what I was doing. Decided to make the change for 22 to be able to do more and my agent got me that rate for 1 truck 1 trailer and 1 driver on unlimited miles.

I was actually surprised with how cheap it was being a new venture. From what I've been told they are excellent to work with.

 

I didn't know they took new authorities either. Congrats! They're certainly taking care of you.
