Anybody use Geico Insurance? I’ve always used a local company. Good or bad results?
I’ve used an agent in my city and the insurance was thru travelers. NO tickets or claims in many years but my insurance is high. I did an online quote with Geico and it was alot lower than my current. Using the same deductibles and limits of coverage.
I have Geico car insurance but have never sent in a claim.
However, the Geico rep selling renter’s insurance was very dishonest and I would not have bought it from her even if it was a good deal (which it may or may not have been).
The only time that insurance paid me for accident damage, it was the other’s driver’s insurance (not Geico) that paid for the damage to both cars.
I have used the towing and tire changing service, which is usually good, although one time the operator had trouble getting the address correct (I was calling from a pay phone and it may have had a bad connection).
One thing that I like is that when I move to another state, I just call and get new insurance cards, and either a bill or a refund (depending on whether the premium is higher or lower), and do not need to find a new agent.

I have Geico insurance. So far, so good. I haven’t had any claims yet, but the price is reasonable.

Geico is actually pretty good until you put in a claim. They’re known for paying off claims and then canceling you or raising your premiums tremendously.
If you have a clean record though, they’re often pretty inexpensive. I currently use them for my motorcycle insurance and have had no problems with them.

Good results. Lower cost. Paid a claim, without raising my premiums.

I had Geico for almost a year and was very pleased with their customer service. The company is very solid financially. However, I just switched to Travelers last week because I found out I was paying far too much for my homeowners policy Geico brokered through Travelers. Evidently, Geico and Travelers have their own premium rating systerm together. My new insurance agent was able to get the same coverage through Travelers for $300 less. Also, my auto was $200 less going through an independent insurance agent.
