Guest Drahken Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 I use Geico now. Never been in an accident so I can't comment on that. Aside from that they have some of the best rates, cheap towing ($20 a year is what we pay) and fairly decent customer service. They also have one of the best payment systems I've dealt with and have never had any confusion. My rates dropped after the first year too and are considerably lower than when I was with Nationwide. I'd recommend them to anyone. I used to use Nationwide till one of their agents made some fucked up threats against me and my family because our payment arrived 'late'. In reality it was postmarked a week before the due date and was lost in their processing center. Basically the agent threatened to raise our rates, call the police and DA and get us thrown in jail for breaking the law. Long story short, their error in payment processing resulted in a loss of about 30% of their clients in my area, all of which had payments 'late' during that period. Worst customer service I've ever dealt with, with the exception of maybe Verizon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Adjective Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 $20 a YEAR? what? edit: oh, i guess you mean towing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Drahken Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Yea, towing. Comp/collision is about $90 on a 2005 Neon. Can't beat that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braintree Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Doesn't Allstate reward you for good driving, though? I use State Farm Insurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdamAnchorman Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 geico can offer low rates because when you need repairs to your car they give you second-hand and used parts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tv_party Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 you'll be happy you're getting about a cheap rate until you get in an accident. I went back and forth with an adjuster on a totaled car for almost six months to get an almost reasonable compensation for my car. check some reviews around the net maybe.

Rubin Farr Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 geico is a fucking scam. i've gotten quotes from them like 3 or 4 times in the last 10 yrs and they've always been 30-40% higher than their competitors. their basic advertising campaign is "we tell you we have lower rates over and over for so many years you begin to believe it" BULLSHIT.
