I just got car insurance last week through Progressive in California. It was cheaper than the same coverage in Washington and activated instantly.

I also just got insurance from Progressive two days ago and I was told they would not do faster than 14 days in California.

Okay. Sorry they're jerking you around. But your experience is clearly not universal.

[whimsicalism]

I mean, the insurance agent told me it was universal for all new customers of progressive in California. You are the only person on this thread who has said they had a different experience.

I am curious what makes it different, as I have no record and drive fewer than 2k miles a year.

How am I supposed to answer that? Either your insurance agent was wrong, or mine shouldn't have sold it to me. All I can contribute is my experience.
