I was interested in getting a quote from someone else for a  home/car-based 
small business insurance.  I called the first insurer I  could think of, my car 
insurer, which is State Farm.  They quoted me a  price that is less than half 
of what Safeco is offering.  
 
It sounded good on the phone, but I will wait until I see a copy of the  
contract and compare the coverage they offer with Safeco before I make  a firm 
decision.
 
State Farm has been really good for me. They've given me-the-spot coverage  
and ready phone assistance when needed.  And my rates didn't go up  even after 
I filed a rather large claim (and I don't even know what they paid  out to the 
guy I ran into........:-().   In fact, my rates have  subsequently decreased.
 
I'll keep y'all posted on any pertinent info!

My premiums jumped 20% in '02, but since then  have been +/- 5% .  This year 
they went down a little.  Never  filed a claim.  The year they went way up, I 
shopped around a little, but  couldn't find anything remotely as reasonable, 
or with as broad a  coverage.  YMMV.

My rates have gone up a bit, too.  I find it curious, and it got  me 
wondering:  how many people have actually filed claims with  Safeco?  Anybody on this 
list?
 
I, for one, have never filed a claim.  I have it for the same  reason I have 
medical insurance:  catastrophic occurence!
 
Of course, if I were to cancel my policy, I'd have a Fazioli action  fall off 
of my workbench...:-)  
 
I may be mistaken, but it seems as though the rate increase is due to  
whatever restructuring or sale took place when the Potter, Leonard name  went away.

Dave  -  I've been with Safeco for years now and have never  filed a claim 
(knock on you-know-what).  Thinking seriously about not  renewing.  Don  Bee
