The only reason I'm using GEICO is due to my association with the USAF and having no claims in 30 years. When I served in the USAF, Geico was good. You're not the cheapest, but I wanted to give you a chance to earn my business. Now that I'm retired, I've been with GEICO for a year or more. I don't plan on having an accident, but it could happen. I spend more time walking and riding a bicycle.

GEICO, a subsidiary of the Berkshire Hathaway Group, is the third-largest U.S. insurer by market share. In addition to auto insurance, GEICO sells homeowners, renters, flood, travel, life, and business insurance, among other products. The insurer offers numerous car insurance discounts to help drivers save. For example, drivers who are accident-free for five years could earn 22% off premiums, and good students could earn 15% off. GEICO’s National Association of Insurance Commissioners complaint index score is below average, meaning it receives fewer consumer complaints than average.
Pros
Good rates for good drivers, seniors, and young drivers
Accident forgiveness available
A+ (Superior) financial strength rating from AM Best
Cons
High rates for drivers with certain violations, like DUIs
No rideshare or new car replacement coverage available

Not Recommended
I would not recommend Allstate. They did not support me when I needed them most. They didn't believe me or the other party when we said my first accident wasn't my fault. My agent incorrectly reported to the DMV that my insurance had lapsed when it hadn't. They increased my insurance rates four to five times within two years. A representative from my agent's office called me to sell renters insurance, promising a lower monthly rate, which turned out to be false. After I was involved in a hit and run, instead of ensuring my wellbeing, they raised my insurance again to almost $800/month. I find Allstate to be a disappointing car insurance company and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.

The office in St. Petersburg, FL has significantly changed. I have been with All State, using the same office, for years. Recently, new management has taken over and the staff has become less courteous and often fail to follow through on their commitments. It's even more challenging when your call gets redirected to an office in another state.

Why we picked this company
The fourth-largest U.S. auto insurer by market share, Allstate is available in all 50 states. The company has been in business for more than 90 years and also sells home, renters, and condo policies — so it’s a good option for those who want to save by bundling auto with another type of policy. Allstate also offers helpful optional auto coverages, like gap insurance and accident forgiveness. AM Best gives the company a high rating for financial strength, but Allstate has a higher-than-average number of complaints in the National Association of Insurance Commissioners Consumer Complaint Index.
Pros
Ample opportunities for bundling discount
Offers a pay-per-mile option

Not a Fan of Farmers Insurance
Farmers Insurance tends to make everything a huge hassle, and they might charge you more if you don't download their app. I wouldn't recommend wasting your time or money with Farmers Insurance.

10 top regional insurers
Regional car insurance companies serve drivers in only a select number of states — not nationwide. But they’re still good choices for many people.
Since regional insurers serve fewer customers than national insurers, they’re often more available for customer service. Local insurance companies may also have more expertise on your area and on which risk factors and local laws will affect your car insurance rates. And importantly, regional insurers can often offer more affordable rates than large ones.
Here’s a closer look at 10 of the top regional insurers in the country.

It started out okay. My six-month policy was over and immediately, I received a rate hike of 124 dollars. I question why this is the case as I am an excellent driver. I'm tired of feeling punished for the actions of other irresponsible drivers. Additionally, I was informed that my insurance will continue to increase and they don't foresee any changes soon. It's not something I'm looking forward to. Thanks!

So, I'm not inclined to praise their treatment of me.

Why we picked this company
NJM launched in 1913 to provide workers’ compensation to New Jersey businesses. In 1921, the company added auto and homeowners insurance. Today, NJM also sells renters, condo, umbrella, watercraft, motorcycle, and ATV insurance in Connecticut, Maryland, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, as well as in New Jersey. AM Best gives the company an A+ rating, and NJM has a much lower than expected number of consumer complaints with the National Association of Insurance Commissioners
