Sometimes things have to change.
We've been with GEICO for over 10 years. It's a good company, but the prices keep going higher and higher. With no accidents or tickets, we are still paying too much. It's just time for a change. Better pricing, more options.

Mostly Happy with Geico šŸ˜
I have been very happy with Geico. They were there and insured me when everyone else wanted to charge me twice as much, and that was more than 5 years ago. My rates at one point were as low as $35 a month, and then all of a sudden they shot up to $55 to $58 a month with zero tickets, zero accidents, and zero claims, which is why I started shopping around. But to be perfectly honest, even though I can get insurance for $14 less a month on average, I think I'm going to stick with Geico because they were there when I needed a break, and that goes a long way with me.

20 years with Geico
I have had Geico for a long time, never had a problem. The only claim I have ever had was for my windshield when it caught a rock. They were really good and got my windshield fixed for a reasonable price. I have a pretty new car with the cameras. I just think they are a little high priced, but no complaints with service.

Uninsured Coverage
In the over 20 years with Geico, I only had one claim. I got hit in the rear, the driver had no insurance, and GEICO paid 100% of the repair needed. No hassle, just courteous, fast service.

Geico will not get my business again
Geico charges for paper bills; they only work through the internet. I would rather pay from an invoice. They charge me $75 for a 6-month policy for state minimum coverage. That is way too expensive for a 20-year-old car. I should have many discounts as a 60-year-old female.

Overall excellent, except for the price. To date, when I started shopping, not one quote has beaten what I currently pay when comparing policy/price vs the same. Not one. I would not switch unless I see about 20% in savings.

Ronald

Geico's discount service sounds great, but...
The DriveEasy program sounds like a great resource, but the actual app tracking itself is really finicky, unreliable, and seems to assume that any hard braking, cornering issues, or speed variances are entirely the fault of the driver. It does not factor in the actual reality of responding to the driving environment around you, which ultimately might lead to poor or unfavorable scores so that the discount might not actually be all it's advertised to be.

Geico isn't great
Geico has been steadily raising our rate, and we have no accidents or tickets. I went to switch to Progressive, who saved me a considerable amount of money, but when my wife got on with Geico to cancel, they said we were on an old system and she could beat Progressive by $100. My wife said yes, and we are paid for the year. I would have happily paid Progressive the extra $100 to get away from Geico.

I’m a senior and I have had a great record. Until 2025, I was in a wreck with no ticket. I was initially told both parties were at fault, but later it was determined to be my fault. I just received a new used 2019 Nissan Armada, and I pay $197.00 a month, which I find ridiculous. Because it is financed, I need to carry full coverage. I don’t feel I have a fair deal.

What You Would Like to Hear
Very, very hard to work through. We have an antique computer and cannot print PDF files, on and on. Your claim reps were very good. I asked them to send everything through the US mail, which they have so far. We had a very hard time with the safe drivers school as my computer system does not seem up to the needs. Anyway, got through it and hopefully y'all have received a copy. Been with you for 40 years, so we do think well of you.

Geico was great, as long as you don’t have any claims
Geico was fine for 22 years! Then my son used my car while visiting from Florida and got in an accident. They covered me just fine, BUT 2 months after the accident, they raised my rate from $130/month to $330/month. I called to discuss and was told I had to prove my son didn’t live with me. I provided his apartment lease, a paystub, a Florida bank account, and a Florida driver's license, but none of it mattered. They would not remove him from my policy. After 22 years with nothing but a few windshield claims, they increased my rate significantly, so I had to switch.

Geico is not what it once was.
Unreal how long it took to even get through the process. First, I had to take pictures. For some reason, they don’t send anybody to look at your car anymore. That took a day. Then I had to email everything to some office, and it took four days for that person to get back to me. Another afternoon and the next day to get a Rent-A-Car. Also, it was almost impossible to pick a car. I ended up having to spend 20 extra dollars a day because it was a larger car. Today, the process has taken almost 2 weeks, the car is in a shop, and no one from GEICO has called me for over a week. Really a very bad experience with GEICO. I’ve been a customer for 30 years at least, and I’ve never experienced this lack of care from anyone else.

I wouldn't suggest Geico to anyone. All they've done is increase my insurance rates for no reason.

Unexpected Payment Increase
They unfairly raised the price without notifying me, and my payment ended up being around $300, leading to a cancellation.

No Customer Loyalty from Geico
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.

The only complaint I have with Geico is they're too expensive
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.

My Experience with Geico
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.

GEICO Now vs. GEICO Before
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.

Out of Control Costs!
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!

My Geico Experience
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?

Geico, not your best bet!
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!

Worst price after 10 years of paying
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?
