Avery,

Well, the insurance is through Safeco, set up for PTG by an agent that we've
used for years.  I imagine that the rates are equal to, if not better, than
most rates that individuals can get through any other insurance company.
But I'm always interested in saving money.....

 

How was the Kawai training.  I'm on the list to go from Seattle, but as I
don't do any store tunings, I'm not a priority.  Don M.  keeps telling me
I'm still on the list.

Thanks, Jeannie. I thought that the insurance was through Safeco/PTG. I was
hoping
someone would chime in with "something". I use Safeco for my vehicle
insurance and 
have never had a problem. However, ..........

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.

To the list:  Just got a renewal notice from Safeco that my insurance will

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
