Date: January 02, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Progressive is comparable and much cheaper. Overall, since I have had Progressive for such a short period, I would say Nationwide, compared to others is a 5 when considering offerings.


Date: September 17, 2018    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Customer Service
There doesn't seem to be a set script when I communicate with them, they have some leniency with what they can say and how they can say it, which makes it feel more personal yet still helpful.

The price is unbeatable when bundled with the auto insurance. I worry however that it is too difficult to get a hold of them when something happens. Luckily I have not had to open any claims or anything with them but not having a 24/7 line when something does happen is worrysome
