Governor Desantis declared most Florida counties a disaster zone. One of the results is that by law, no insurance can deny renewal during a time span that was essentially October thru December. Hence, all insurance companies, not just Progressive, that had "non-renewal" of policies during that time had to reinstate them. However......if you renew, you will be dropped after a year. Also, in my case, the renewal would be at a 65% increase in premium. Fortunately, I had already secured replacement insurance at the same price as last year
Good information, thanks. I guess that means Farmers would have to renew our policy on December 1st even though they already sent us a non renewal notice. Oh well, we already committed to a new insurer and don’t want to renew with a company that plans to dump us as soon as they legally can.
