I turned 25 a few months ago and it has often been told to me that upon doing so, your insurance goes down. I just checked my policy online and Progressive is planning on charging me about 5 bucks less for 6 months. Thats not the kind of reduction I was expecting.

Do you have to call and tell them, “Hey I’m 25, shouldn’t my policy cost less now?”

How much of a reduction did you over 25 guys see?

it’ll be relative to the original cost… so would ppl mind posting that up too?

I’m hoping for a 20% decrease… but that won’t be for half a year

My drop was quite good - From like $1500 / yr to like $1100 / yr for the Z. I’ve got State Farm.

EDIT: Just checked my policy, I’m an idiot - I pay $900 / yr now for the Z 🙂

State Farm is good… there were little drops at 21 and 23… 25 should be good.

I’m at about $625 every six months for the Jeep. It went down after ditching the Kia… didn’t think it would.

So it certainly sounds like my discount hasn’t been applied. I’ll have to call Progressive and inform them of the fact that I am 25 now.

on the plus side of things, you’ll probably get a free month of insurance, or atleast discounted for a few months 🙂
