What Happened to GEICO’s App and Customer Support?
I’ve had GEICO for years. It was inexpensive, the service was great, and they were always helpful and friendly. Then a few months ago they changed their phone app, and you can’t find anything or contact them anymore. I had to retire my vehicle because it was a 1988 in California, and they changed the smog rules so it could no longer be registered. I kept my insurance so I could keep my low rates for coverage. When I got a newer vehicle—a 2019 Dodge minivan—they raised my rate from $30 a month with my truck to over $700, and said I had to pay $355.10 for the first month, then around $250 a month. They said I was now driving 12,799 miles a year. I live about 10 miles from Walmart and drive there around once a month. Everything else is closer, and I usually stop there on the way. About 2 or 3 times a year I go to the next city, about 120 miles round trip. Last year I drove 6,000 miles total, and that was because my brother got skin cancer and I drove him to chemo treatments (about 100 miles) for 30 days. He got over it and I’m not going there anymore. They wouldn’t talk to me. I tried for two weeks. I finally got ahold of someone and they said they would change the mileage, but then a week later they changed my rate from $210 to $355.10. I have AAA towing, and AAA gave me the same coverage for $64.91 with autopay. It’s the same policy that GEICO charged me $30 a month for before they changed everything. I got GEICO because it was half the price of AAA, which is now about 60% cheaper.

Unpredictable and Inflexible
It was frustrating—they raised my premium after we agreed on a rate and I gave them my credit card info. They also suggested I let a garbage truck hit my car rather than dodge it so I wouldn’t be at fault. Long story.

Contacting a Live Person Is a Nightmare
I had just bought a new car, and about 1 month and 1 week later someone stole it from my sister’s apartment. I reported it immediately to the police, GEICO, and my finance company. The police found it a few days later in Milwaukie, and I was so thankful. But it’s been very frustrating because I can’t get on the GEICO portal—it shuts me down every time. I’ve called and left messages, and they don’t call me back. Getting past the AI to reach a real person is nearly impossible, and when you do, you still have hundreds of people ahead of you. The damages are minor: the front bumper, quarter panel, and key housing. So it shouldn’t be too bad, but I can’t seem to contact anyone. Once you get a live person, they’re fine—it’s just getting to them that’s the problem.

Customer Service
I got this insurance online. I haven’t had an accident, which means no claims, so I can’t say how you’ll handle that. I had a bad experience with my previous company every time I renewed. I told them I didn’t want certain coverage. They said they’d take care of it, but they didn’t—they just kept charging me. It wasn’t a lot of money, so I let it go. But after 5–6 renewals, I finally canceled auto-pay. We’ll see how you’ll handle issues if they come up.

Bundling Wasn't for Me
I thought that when bundling homeowners and auto, it would all be through GEICO, but it wasn’t. The other agency they paired me with dropped the ball and didn’t contact my homeowners insurance like other companies have in the past—it was left up to me to handle. I wouldn’t go this way again.

I Have Nothing to Say
Well, I did talk to them, and I told them I’m waiting for my Social Security deposit to hit my bank. But they already canceled my policy because my Social Security can’t predict the exact date and time it will be deposited. I asked them to please give me a few days until my Social Security deposit comes in, and then I would pay the past-due amount, but they said, “I’m sorry, we can’t do that—you have to pay on the due date.” I was like, seriously? My Social Security won’t deposit until the end of the month. It usually deposits sometime between the 25th and the 1st, depending on the bank. Now I don’t have insurance on my car because they don’t understand. So I might have to look for another insurance company that understands my situation, since this happens to other people too.

The Geico Advantage
Geico allows you to pay for four months and receive six months of coverage. That's why I have been with Geico since 2016. So, for 8 months, I pay for 12 months of coverage, and I have four months where I don't pay anything.

GEICO is there when you need them and is very responsive. You can get better rates when you bundle. I’ve been fortunate—other than a rock ding in the windshield, I’ve never had to file a claim. However, rates tend to go up every year, even with no claims.

GEICO Doesn’t Really Care
As soon as you get your rate reduced, they raise it for a totally different reason. Also, with bundling, they take advantage of you on homeowners insurance by not doing their job to alert the customer about mandatory documentation from the underwriting insurance company they send you to.

Your customers are now being charged much more because customers are choosing you, no thanks
I had this insurance for a long time, and then one day it went up by $40+ dollars. When I contacted you, your reasoning was that because of the number of new customers, you had to raise rates. Now I’m being charged because you’re getting good reviews from your older clients, like me, and that is not acceptable. I should be getting a discount for being with you for so long instead of being charged because you’re getting new clients. So I will be seeking other auto insurance. I don’t have anything good to say about this company, so goodbye.

The claims process was very poor. My wife’s car was hit in a parking lot, and I was made to feel like it was my fault. They wanted me to take the car to Austin to verify that it was parked, and my claim was reduced because I wasn’t able to take it there. I had to cover a portion out of pocket to get it repaired. I understand why they do this, but it was presented to me the wrong way, so I’m shopping for a different company now.

Run, they don't care at all about you or the value of your car, especially if it's a rare factory car
Just find another insurance company. I was hit and sideswiped by a blue Corvette while doing the speed limit and staying in my lane, and they said it was my fault. The other driver never stopped. I have no idea how I’m at fault after being hit and then the other driver left illegally. They also refused to cover over $18k of Roush Performance parts installed at the dealership when the car was purchased new.

Terrible Customer Service
Don’t use Geico. They undervalue things when it comes time for a payout, and you have to fight with them to get what’s right. They also opened a roadside assistance call as a claim and marked it as an at-fault accident, but it was actually a mechanical breakdown. It’s ridiculous, and now I have to pay almost double for new insurance.

GEICO doesn't really replace your total loss with retail value
Okay, except when my car was totaled in a not-at-fault accident. The replacement payout was nowhere near the retail value. I had to come up with over $1,200 out of pocket. Instead of Blue Book value, they use NADA value, which is way under market value. I had to settle for less of a car as a replacement.

Shop Around Before You Sign
Shop around before you sign. I tapped the back of a car in a drive-through at a fast-food restaurant—no damage. I took two pictures of the bumper (not a mark anywhere) and submitted them to GEICO, and followed up with a call to an agent. The driver of the other car filed a claim for damage, GEICO paid out $1,532, and doubled my premium. I called them and said it was a fraudulent claim and to look at the pictures as proof, but I got no response. The only thing good about GEICO that I can rely on is the roadside service.

A summary of my experience: I feel like I’m being taken advantage of
Initially, Geico offered the lowest premium for my car insurance. Recently, the premium keeps going up and up. Given the age of my cars (a 2010 Toyota Corolla and a 2003 Saturn Ion) and the fact that I requested the lowest available coverage, I feel like I’m paying much more than I should be. This leaves me very disappointed in an insurance company I initially admired. Right now, I’m looking for a better deal.

Better Than Other Insurance Companies, but Too High in Price Compared to Lower-Cost Options
Prices are high, especially for seniors, but their coverage is excellent. As a senior citizen, it would be nice if prices were lower, especially if you’ve been with them for a while and have had no accidents that were your fault. In my case, I got T-boned by a driver entering the road from a parking lot, and she totaled my car, sending me into a 360 with all four tires off the road and landing in the opposite direction.

User review collection and methodologyexpand/collapse

Insurify collects reviews from users on its platform who have successfully compared quotes, as well as users who have purchased a policy through Insurify.

These users complete an optional survey that asks them to review their experience with their current insurance company and rate the company on factors like customer service, claims handling, coverage availability, discounts, policy flexibility, policy transparency, and value for money.

Our data team then compiles and cleans these ratings and reviews to bring you company-level insights from over 85,000 Insurify users.
