The cost of doing business with Allstate

I just got a response back from Progressive regarding how much extra I'm paying because of this mess:

"I have reviewed your policy and if there were no lapse in coverage your premium would decrease by $108.00. Your total six-month premium would be $748.00."

Thank you Brett Turley with Alltate! You are costing me $18/month for who knows how long. You should already have my address, you can go ahead and start sending me checks every month. Actually, go ahead and make it $50 month, since I should be paying just $96/month with State Farm right now.
