Is GEICO A Good Insurance Company? Reviews From Over 19,848 Customers

I feel good about them. They are average to above average in meeting my needs.

Good company, easy to renew policy, good value for cost compared to other major insurers.

An amazing company. I am extremely satisfied.

The lowest rate compared to all the competitors!

Great price/value and excellent customer service.

I would tell a friend to forget about shopping around for auto insurance. Geico is very competitive, more competitive than Progressive and Direct auto insurances.

As far as I have interacted with them, they have been doing well. I haven't had any claims yet, so I don't know how well they pay off.

Excellent customer service and the most reasonable auto policy premium.

Good, but the only issue is they are increasing the rates by $100-$200 every 6 months.

Overall, we were very pleased, but like most people, we're looking to save money.

Extremely affordable and amazing to work with. I definitely recommend them to everyone.

Good except for the price.

I've been with Geico for years. The only problem I have is that it's so expensive. I pay $208 a month. I'm a senior, and that's too high.

Good, no problems.

They are accommodating as far as coverage options.

Highly recommend.

They have good customer service and they’re a great insurance company with acceptable prices.

If you get stuck on the road, call them.

My questions are always answered in a timely manner and the rate is way better than when I was insured with Allstate and State Farm. I'm extremely happy, but overall insurance rates are outrageously high. I personally think large insurance companies are just greedy and they can get away with charging whatever they want.

Excellent

Easy to deal with but have steadily increasing premium costs.

With insurance, I am so comfortable with their customer service. I feel comfortable working with them.

I would like the payment to be lower, but from what I have found out, everyone else is much higher than what I pay.

I have conducted a diligent, months-long online search for a lower six-month premium than my current GEICO policy. No other company could even match, let alone offer a better rate. GEICO is the very best!

I like the ease of claims processing and the claim handling process. I think the GEICO app is about 85% effective. Sometimes it doesn’t work or load, and it also doesn’t consistently accept biometrics (Face ID). You have to log in even though biometrics was set up.

Geico is good and I love all their benefits, but the price is just so high. It’s just hard for me to pay it every month.

Great service and coverage for their customers. They have been my auto insurer since 1978. They have covered every claim I have submitted. I have a 20-year-old Miata. A couple of years ago, the decayed convertible top was torn away when a storm came through. Over the years, it had been getting noisier and noisier in the car from wind blowing in through the tiny holes in the top. My wife suggested I try Geico before I paid out of pocket to replace the top. Much to my surprise, they covered the replacement. Very recently, I rented a car from Avis in New Orleans which had a number of scratches and dings when I got the car. I did not take photos at the time of the rental, but did get a walk-around from Avis noting the areas of damage at the time of rental. A couple of weeks after the return, Avis tried to charge me $5K for damages. I handed it off to Geico and they covered it. I don't know if they paid anything but I did not. There is, however, another side to Geico. My sister, who does not use Geico, was hit by someone with Geico. They jerked her around endlessly. She hates the company. Since I am a long-term customer, I am probably overpaying. I recently checked other companies and found their rates significantly lower. I haven't changed though.

I was up for renewal and only when I reached out did they lower my renewal by $1800. Wish they would accurately re-evaluate rates at the time of renewal.

They get the job done. They have been there for me.

Excellent service and monthly payment.

GEICO used to be the head honcho to me, but now the prices are out of control. I have been browsing around for another car insurance company to deal with.

Good but expensive.

Good service.

No problems! Very easy to access!

Very good experience! Very happy with Geico!

Good, no claims, but Geico kept raising rates every renewal. Found the same coverage $500.00 cheaper elsewhere.

It has been good for several years, but I'm not sure if I am getting the best discount prices.

Excellent. Always check on getting lower rates if available.

It's good coverage, but every 6 months your insurance cost increases.

Premium is too high, but the service is decent.

Not as competitive as other insurers; however, I’ve been with them a long time. Accident-free and ticket-free.

GEICO has competitive pricing and great customer service.

Very good, but very expensive!

Very helpful and friendly service helped us save money on our auto insurance. Will recommend GEICO to others. Thank you.

Responsive. Rate went up from very good to bad. It increased by $160 in six months.

Okay, but it could be cheaper.

Good experience with service, but I feel I am paying too much.

I had them in the past and you get a good deal for your money.

Never had a problem.

GEICO was my home and auto insurance carrier; I switched to Allstate effective 01/15/2026.

Understand your coverage options and ask questions.

Would like to get it cheaper.

Great, no complaints.

GEICO's service is excellent in almost every case. My problem is getting a live customer service representative. There are times when I want to speak to a person. That's the one change I'd encourage them to make. Most companies are using AI, which makes things extremely difficult.

They're a good insurance company, and I like the app, but the prices are too high.

Geico is the best insurance company for me because they are very transparent. Though there is no reasonably priced insurance in Kentucky, Geico is so far the cheapest I have found for the coverage I need.

Excellent

The service experience has been great for the past 8 years. The price, on the other hand, has just kept going up. Finally had to switch to another provider and found out that an accident my spouse and his car were involved in 1 year ago shows up on my driving history, even though the claims agent said that it would not.

Good service and friendly staff.

Great customer service.

Things started out well with a good price for the vehicle coverage. The problem arose after my son was involved in a no-fault accident where he was struck by another driver. Geico paid a claim to have the vehicle repaired but failed to pursue the other driver who had run the traffic light. Then, out of nowhere, they dropped coverage for the vehicle, citing the accident as the reason. After years of payments without ever being late or missing a payment, this is how they treat a long-valued customer. It shows no loyalty from the company.

Our rates doubled within a few years, even though we have a clean driving record.

I have had to make two customer service calls, and they were great! The app is very easy to navigate and understand.

It is too high considering I have no DUIs, no accidents, no claims. I've just been paying a lot of money, and I'm thankful I've never had an accident or anything, but I think I should get a better plan than what they're giving me. As far as money-wise, they're charging me too much for my plan. I have found a couple of other options that save a little bit more, but I've been with Geico for almost 30 years, and they're doing me this way.

GEICO is unbelievable with their rates. We have a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado and a 2014 GMC Terrain. My husband drives approximately 2 miles one way four times a week to work. My Terrain hardly ever leaves the yard. I’m retired, so it only goes when I need to go shopping, which is maybe 4 miles from us on occasion. We currently pay $173 a month for these vehicles. My husband has no tickets. I have a ticket from approximately three years ago when I was backing out of a parking space and a lady came around the corner real fast and hit me, so I’m assuming this charges against me. But anyway, I’m very unhappy with them.

I've had 3 increases in the first month of my policy. I canceled and moved back to my previous insurance company, which even lowered my previous rate, and my monthly payment decreased by over $80 a month on a 6-month policy. I was with GEICO over 6 years ago for 7 years with excellent coverage and customer service. I'm highly disappointed with the present GEICO.

Rates every six months are much higher.

I was quoted $210 per month, but since then the cost has increased to over $500 with no explanation. I've repeatedly sent messages but received no response.

My current car insurance is with GEICO. I have been a customer for over 21 years. In the past two years, despite having no claims or accidents, my policy has doubled in cost. Two other major insurance companies are offering the same coverage for less than half the cost. This is disgraceful and not how one would expect a loyal customer to be treated. Bye, bye GEICO!

I pay way too much despite having a great driving record. They are charging me more based on where I live, and the worker says driving doesn't matter.

So far, so good. Better rates than Geico.

GEICO is too expensive for what they offer! That’s why I am looking for a new insurance company for my next 6 months.

I was late on my payment, and that caused it to at least double. I'm on a fixed income, so coming up with more money for insurance is just not in my budget.

Customer service is lacking. You have a better chance of driving 10 miles on any interstate and not seeing a bad driver than getting to talk to a real person. The AI is what you interact with. Prices keep going up even though I've never had a claim. Why?

The rates are too high on a fixed income. If they get any higher, I will have to look elsewhere.

I believe I am overcharged. I have paid my premium regularly and on time for over six years, with no claims! When I called to see if I could get my rates reduced and add my son to my policy, they offered no help. I'm not a fan of Geico and would not recommend them!

I was with them for over 10 years. No claims, never missed a payment. No accidents, tickets, nothing in 40 years of driving. I was paying twice the amount I should have been paying. When I called to cancel, they said they would match the new company's rate. Why didn't they automatically adjust my payment to the best rate? Why is the customer supposed to review the price every 6 months?

Better rates and lower prices.

When your rates increase with your insurance company, start shopping annually for new insurance.

The rates are on the high side.

I never had issues until I filed a claim. The adjuster, "Angel," was very unprofessional and incompetent, in my opinion. Otherwise, the service was very great.

I have never received a discount for being a loyal customer. I turned 60 and still no discount. No accidents or tickets, still no discounts. I don't drive much at all, and still no discount! I called them once asking about a lower price, and the man was rude to me. The very next day, he raised my premium! I'm going to find a different company. I just haven't had the time to do it.

Sending cancellation notices half a month in advance. I've been a faithful customer for at least six years. Rates went up.

The coverage and service provided are good, but the price is becoming too high.

Price change without warning. I found this was the case according to people I talked with, who said that's why they switched.

I was offered a much lower price by another insurance company, gave Geico a chance to match it, and they refused. Never had a claim in over 40 years on car insurance.

They charge more than I should pay, and I’m looking around.

Too pricey.

My car insurance is too expensive for a senior citizen on a fixed income.

GEICO would not allow me to split the extra-large payment! I was charged extra if I did not use auto-pay.

Overpriced and never contacted by an agent in the 4+ years I have been with them.

If you have one accident or ticket, you will pay hundreds of dollars more for the next five years. There is no forgiveness or anything.

No accidents or tickets, yet they keep raising my rates.

They never informed me of paperless options, then charged me.

If you switch to GEICO, only stay for one year. After that, rates hike and hike until you're paying triple what you started with by year 3. Every single claim, regardless of frequent driver, goes against you, even for a comprehensive claim which is never supposed to affect the rating class of other coverages. There is absolutely zero accident forgiveness, regardless of how minor the payout was. Steer clear of the misleading ads! Everything in GEICO ads only applies to your very first policy.

GEICO doubled my rates for no other reason than the car was bought new. I've been with GEICO for over 30 years, and this increase is disappointing.

Good but much too expensive for a senior citizen with a good record.

They are too expensive and keep going up in cost. They should provide discounts for long-term customers. This is the reason why we are searching for another car insurance provider.

Terrible would be an improvement. After 9 years as a customer in good standing, I have been treated with indifference to flat-out rudeness. Two months ago, my car was in a wreck, and I was not at fault. I still have not received payment. My adjuster changed three times without my being informed. The current adjuster responds whenever it suits her. Communication throughout the whole experience has been abysmal. No response to texts or emails. When calls are returned, I'm fed misinformation or flat-out lies. Still waiting for a check, but every time I reach out, I get no response. Look elsewhere for insurance.

GEICO made a mistake transcribing my VIN, putting me through a difficult time registering my car and causing the DMV to report lapses of insurance to credit bureaus. On top of that, they say I’m responsible for a change in the premium dating back to when they made the mistake. My GEICO agent blamed me for the mistake because my car purchase was at 7:00, after agency hours.

The cost kept rising even though I have an excellent driving record.

They told me roadside service was an added benefit. They never told me that using it was a "claim" against my account. Then my rate went up $200 a year right after a fender bender that wasn’t my fault. It was around a $1500 cosmetic repair. The other person was at fault and their insurance fully paid. Geico was out nothing. When I asked, I was told I had two claims in 30 days and insurance was due to go up anyway.

I didn't like their services over the last couple of years. The insurance cost went up for no apparent reason.

Find a more reasonable carrier; rates are escalating.

I had insurance with Geico for 15-20 years. I recently underpaid by $54. I got online to pay it 8 hours later, and to renew it they wanted to double my insurance rate. It went from $400-something to over $800. The customer service has really gone down over the years. I don't think they listen to customers anymore.

Good except for rates increasing each year.

It is okay, but the price is too high and will go up even higher after my 6 months.

Geico will not work with people on SSI or people on a fixed income. I can't afford $200 a month! I have been calling other insurance places.

I moved to a rural area and my insurance went up because of the number of claims in the area. My rate was not based on my driving record. I have not had an insurance claim with GEICO in over 20 years. I should not pay more because Lakeside, California has drivers with higher claim rates.

Policy increased by $500. Unfair.

Every 6 months, the costs go up.

They start you off with a good discount and rate, but the longer you stay with them, they increase your bill. When you call to find out why, they have an attitude like I should have known. Not only that, I barely use my car. I'm elderly, with no tickets or accidents, and I'm paying $1,400 a year. They also give you a quote but don't tell you it's only a 6-month term. It's crazy, and my car is 20 years old, so paying that price is unreasonable. I'm actively looking for a different insurance company now.

So far, I'm not thrilled. I feel cheated already. The first representative, before I bought the policy, was okay but needed a bit more training with customers. The second representative seemed knowledgeable and gave me a price. I paid in full the quote that was determined. I found out two months later that Geico added on another $101. Today, I got my credit card statement, and they posted a bill of $156. I will look for another company when I have the time. I will let this ride for a bit. Not happy at all.

It's good, but for my driving record, it's kind of expensive.

We’ve had zero claims in the last 7 to 8 years, yet our insurance rates are nearly unsustainable as they have increased exponentially due to inflation or whatever they say. We bundled home and car to save, and our premiums have nearly doubled, so we’re going to find cheaper insurance. We’ve had Geico for about 15 years, so it’s hard to have to change, but they offer zero ideas to reduce the nearly $300 per month premiums. We’re retired, hardly drive, and it’s ridiculous to have to pay this much for 2 vehicles.

Cheaper than what you offer.

I did not have coverage very long with Geico when, on my way to a doctor's appointment, a truck quickly pulled in front of me, which did not have the right of way. The end result was that I hit the truck in the rear. In exchanging insurance information, I checked his truck over and over for any damages. Finally, he decided there were no damages or scratches. He, in fact, stated to me, "I do not find any damages whatsoever," and said, "I will let my employer know about the accident and notify them that there is no damage to the truck." The next thing I find out, 2-3 weeks later, is that a claim was filed for damages. I called Geico and spoke to an agent. He was surprised I did not know about the claim, as no one from Geico called me to find out the truth of the accident. He said he would have someone from Geico call me. I never got a call, but I received a letter stating a claim was filed and Geico was working on an agreeable amount. It stated they would contact me when settled. I never got said call and have never been asked my version, and it is presumed I am guilty. I actually had the right of way and NO damage was done. I still, to this day, do not know what Geico paid out. This was handled very poorly. Just because I am a senior does not justify not getting the truth of the accident.

I feel they are on the higher side. I don’t have any accidents, tickets, or DUIs, and I am paying more for insurance than I ever have.

I am not completely satisfied with my current auto insurance. Although I understand that insurance rates are rising, especially in New York State, I know that I could be paying less, and that is where my frustration lies. I'm close to paying nearly $300 a month for a multi-car policy for 2 vehicles that are more than 10 years old. I simply want to pay less for auto insurance to fit my monthly budget as I am a Geico customer of disabled status living on a fixed income.

The price of the coverage is very high.
