[edit] Full name
"Full name: Progressive Mutual Insurance Company", where's that from? The latest 10-Q say "THE PROGRESSIVE CORPORATION", "Exact name of registrant as specified in its charter" [1]. - Jerryseinfeld 23:34, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)
I work for an independant insurance agency that carries Progressive, as well as several other auto insurance companies. Progressive has several "underwriting companies", which as I understand it are different risk groups categorized. They include Progressive Mutual, Progressive Preferred, Progressive Northern, Progressive Northwestern, Progressive Western, etc. These are in practice transparent to the consumer / insureds as well as the agency, the head office, and the claims people, so one could say "I'm insured with Progressive" and be perfectly accurate. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.19.47.210 (talk • contribs).
In the fine print in their commercials where I am it says they're called "Progressive Halcyon Insurance Company" - which i remembered because it struck me as an odd name - maybe the product of a merger? --Random|[[User talk:Random832|832]] 12:04, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
-- Progressive Halcyon was the main company until the DOI allowed the name change to Progresive Direct.Random.Employee
This only applies to the Direct Channel. The umbrella corporation remains Halcyon.
