Progressive Snapshot

They offered the snap shot to me back in June of 2010. I was thinking about taking them up on it till they told me it could raise my rates if the data suggested poor driving habits.

My coworker used it and had a pretty significant savings. $50 a month I want to say (although, they had a total of 3 cars insured.)

That's not the way it was originally advertised. They originally advertised it as a no risk kind of thing.

That's how most things start. Harmless and benign.

True story.

PS, the more people jump on the bandwagon and allow them to do that stuff, the shorter the time before we all HAVE to do it just to get insurance.

Yep. Pretty soon they will enact some sort of homeland security law that allows them to mail you a ticket through some legal back-door that took another right from you.

Very true. Anyone else notice ATT's little trick on Uverse? They start you off with a nice low introductory rate. Over a years term however, they will increase that rate multiple times, up until you want to say . I do miss the fiber to street internet speeds. I <3 dedicated 20mbs.

Yeah its a bit strange. I was in a "test market" to try this "cool" new thing that would track everything I do and give me a percentage of up to 15% off my next bill. I kept asking questions about if I sped or drove at weird times on heavly traffic roads if the data clould have a negitive effect and increase my bill. The rep said plain as day, "YES". So I opted out and he said "If I had a Z I think twice about doing do it". I dont know if he was full of it or what. End story, watch out for big brother.
