Why You Might Want to Opt Out

Many drivers receive frequent mail from Progressive Auto Insurance offering discounts or new coverage options. If the mail is distracting or you prefer digital communication, opting out is straightforward.

First Step: Check the Mailer

Each mail piece includes a small line at the bottom that says "To opt out, write 'STOP' to 1-800-xxx-xxxx" or a similar instruction. This is the quickest way to halt future mail.

Use the Online Opt‑Out Portal

Progressive hosts an online opt‑out tool on its website. Log in with your policy number, locate the "Communications Preferences" section, and toggle mailings off. This method records your choice in the insurer's system.

Contact Customer Service Directly

Call the dedicated mail opt‑out line, available 24/7. Provide your policy number and ask the representative to confirm that mailings are disabled. Request a confirmation email for your records.

Verify Your Opt‑Out Status

After completing any of the above steps, wait one to two billing cycles. If mail continues, contact customer service again, citing the opt‑out request and any reference number received. Persistent mailings may indicate a system error.

What to Do If You Receive Unwanted Mail

  • Mark the envelope as "Return to Sender" and do not open.
  • Keep the mail for a few days; if the opt‑out request is not honored, file a complaint with the state insurance regulator.

Keep Your Records Updated

Maintain a spreadsheet of all communication preferences for each insurer. This prevents accidental re‑subscription and helps you audit any future mail.
