Disappointed
It was reasonable and affordable for a senior when I switched to it over 10 years ago. Currently, as a senior with a good driving record, no accidents, and no moving violations, it’s discouraging to find my rates climbing up instead of going down, which I was led to believe they would.

Paying More Than I Should Be
I've never had to use them, but I seem to be paying more than I would with other companies. I'm thinking about changing.

Upstanding thanks
Very pleased with the service and the follow-ups to make sure that I had everything in place to have proper insurance and pricing going forward.

Even if it hurts, choose integrity.
My policy doubled due to a parking issue. I was parallel parking and scraped the car behind me. It was my fault. But doubling my policy payment? I've been a customer for over thirty years. I owed the man behind me honesty, so I left a note on his windshield. However, the hike in my premiums is making it almost unaffordable to keep the car. They have been a good insurance company for the thirty-plus years I have enjoyed their coverage. I trust them. They send a locksmith or a battery jump when needed over the years. Two of my three adult children also use them.

Car insurance review
I'm at the point where I can no longer afford to financially stay with my current car insurer. It's a long story... suffice it to say a part-time job offer didn't pan out. (Can't get all my bills paid on Social Security alone.)

Geico is the best in all ways.
I have searched everywhere to get a lower price than my current Geico policy, including answering many questionnaire-type quote offers from more than a score of companies and middlemen, and no one comes close to my current rate that I'm paying Geico.

God Help Us All
No one has beaten Geico in cost since we have been searching for lower auto insurance. We are seniors and retired, and we do not drive a lot, yet you categorize us as if we do. It's not the same as years ago. We were noticed, but in this day and time, no more. Everything is in the same package with everybody else. Everything is about money, not for the people anymore. But I get it. If you drive, you will pay. Our prices go up, but not our income.

They have been great. The best price I could find, since my first insurance went up to over $100.00. So I looked around until I found GEICO.

Insurance rates are too high!
I think it is very expensive. I’ve only been in two not-at-fault accidents and my insurance premium has almost doubled. I’ve been with GEICO for over 40 years, and just because I left GEICO briefly for two weeks, when I came back, they said that I only have a three-year history with them. It does not show anything prior to that. Being a loyal customer with zero at-fault claims for 40 years, plus being a veteran and a safe driver, I feel that I deserve more discounts. Right now, it's getting competitive, and other companies are offering better rates. The only reason I’ve stayed with GEICO is because it is the path of least resistance.
Woody

Geico is the best car insurance value I've been able to find for many years.
I find Geico flawless in communication and prompt service. I had the lowest possible rates from them for many years, exceptionally low, until last year. I had an at-fault accident (so they say), but I beg to differ. But that wasn't for me to decide.

I would advise against insuring with GEICO because they seem unwilling to help clients reduce their rates. I am paying almost $600 every six months for a car that sits in the garage four out of five days a week. No DUIs, no tickets, no accidents, and they still refuse to lower my rate.

I’m a 72-year-old widow and haven’t had an accident in over 30 years. I've had a few window claims as I live in Phoenix, Arizona. My rate is about $130 a month. I have a 2021 Honda HRV that only has 25,000 miles on it, and I’ve had it for six years. I don’t understand this. Why is my insurance so high? I’ve tried and tried to find other companies to get it down, but nobody, and I mean nobody, has a cheaper solution for me.

You don't save with Geico
Used to be good, but every year the price keeps increasing. Not by a little, with no accidents or violations of any kind. I adjust my coverage to lower it, and come next renewal, it doubles from what I was trying to save.

I’m deeply disappointed they don’t consider good driving records with no tickets and very low daily/yearly mileage. I use my car for personal use and only drive 1-2 times a week, usually less than 55 miles a week, or even less if I only drive once that week, if at all some weeks. I have good credit.

Didn't even try to find out what happened after our accident! It was very disappointing!
No issues until we made a claim and never had anyone call to find out our side of the story or to call and ask what happened, just paid the other driver's claim when she was in the wrong!

Hello, You are infringing on my privacy by constantly forcing my phone to provide location information. Where I am is my business, not GEICO's. If you want to know how the vehicle is driven, provide a GPS device assigned to the insured car, not to my phone. I am a professional truck driver and I drive across the entire USA in a truck. I only drive my private car for 5% of my annual mileage, so this information is not relevant to you. Furthermore, when calculating my insurance premium, you increased the amount because I had a speeding ticket 5 years ago. The calculation should be based on the last 3 years, and during that time everything has been fine. This is my first and last insurance policy with your company. I do not consider you transparent.

I don't like Geico
They "accidentally" bill me monthly (then fix it) when I paid for six months. They didn't tell me my credit would be checked, and I think that's not only dishonest but unnecessary. The only reason someone's credit should be a factor is if they're borrowing money. It used to be that your driving record mattered. It's the same with many other things in life. One's rental history mattered when renting. I don't like being dependent on banks. Geico makes that happen.

Great Insurance, Bad Price
Roadside service is great. Rental car quickly provided. The bad thing is the price. Every 6 months the rates go up. I have had a perfect driving record since 1977 with no at-fault accidents, so I believe the rates should go down, not up.

15+ Years are Enough
I've been with Geico for over 15 years. Every 6 months they raise rates. So I call them, and they always blame the government or recent weather, etc. I've never had a claim, but still. So I started the formidable job of comparing policies. I beat Geico by $226.00 and now have better coverage! Companies want loyalty, so where is the loyalty to the customer?

I was in a very minor low-speed accident that caused minimal damage to the other vehicle. I sent in photos and a video of the accident as it occurred. The damage was possibly $1500 worth to the rear bumper area. Geico totaled out the other person’s car for over $8000 without even looking at my pictures or video. And then, of course, raised my rates, with no accidents in 45 years of driving.

Geico makes mistakes and will not listen to customers.
Geico was unwilling to review and lower my premium when they made a mistake. They were charging me for two vehicles when only one was on the policy. They did not follow instructions to cancel one vehicle and kept charging me the same premium for one. I called them several times to clarify, and they acted like they did not care and said, "That is the premium." But when I canceled, all of a sudden they were ready to negotiate a lower rate.
