Is GEICO A Good Insurance Company? Reviews From Over 20,464 Customers

No one can beat the price.

Good, but I need a lower price. All claims were done to my car, not by my car. My rates should not have gone up.

No problems at all.

Good but pricey.

They are good overall, but too expensive for my budget!

My satisfied experience with roadside assistance

Geico has been great.

I'm happy with Geico. The quote was quick and the prices are great.

Easy. Got a quote. Paid for it. Printed my card. Done for 6 months!

Geico has friendly customer service all the time.

Good as long as you only have a car or a half-ton pickup. I unfortunately was part of an insurance scam, and they wanted me to put my farm truck on a commercial policy, tripling my insurance rate. So I had to go with Progressive, or I would still have Geico.

Expensive. I have no accidents, no speeding tickets, I'm a disabled veteran, and I'm over 58 years old. I think my policy should be cheaper than what I'm paying.

I've been with this company for years, and because I made one claim, my rate went up.

Everything is easy and smooth.

It's okay.

Still too high on premiums!

I like it for the price. I don't like having to use an app that monitors my driving.

I like the GEICO plan. I think they are a bit high in price, but I guess you get what you pay for. I’m glad I have full coverage now. I had no idea I didn’t have full coverage, and when I was in my accident, I was very surprised that the agent I opened my policy with didn’t get me full coverage like I had with my last policy. Live and learn, I guess.

Best rate.

Outstanding customer service!

I feel it's good, however, it could be better.

Mostly fine; however, I constantly have to request ID cards that they claim they will automatically send. This gets old quickly.

My policy renewal increased by over $100 for no reason. I haven't gotten a ticket or been in an accident. I have the safe drive app, but there's misinformation when using it. I train drivers, so most of the time I'm not driving when using my phone, and it's too much trouble trying to adjust whether I'm driving or not.

На сегодня это самая выгодная для меня компания!

Good on claims.

First, always shop around so when you speak with their rep, you have an idea of the prices at the moment. The reps at Geico are very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. So, once you have an idea of the price range you're looking for, don't be afraid to ask the rep questions and try to get to your desired price if possible.

My current insurance is okay, but the premium payment seems to be creeping upwards. Other than that, nothing negative to report.

Very friendly and efficient.

Geico has been very good for me; the one real negative is the high monthly payment.

Ease of access.

It's been great and easy.

Too expensive.

Good overall, but almost $200 is too expensive for full coverage for my older Hyundai Sonata.

Good

Love them! I've been with them for over 18 years for car and renters insurance. They listen.

Excellent customer service, good rates, and quick refund from previous car insurance (Allstate).

The last two terms, my policy has gone up, not down, and I haven't had an accident.

Beats most in pricing, great service, and great payment flexibility.

Lowest rates every year I check. GEICO is the best for affordable car and renters insurance year after year I check.

Good customer service.

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.

Cheaper than anyone I can find.

La mejor compañía

It was very easy to communicate with customer care. It covers rental cars if we take one while traveling and also covers guests.

Excellent

They help when you call.

Great company

Stress-free, easy to apply and understand policy info, great premiums and discounts.

Geico still has the best rates in Connecticut.

I've been with them for over 10 years. I wish it was cheaper, but it is what it is.

It's more than I want to pay. I have to have insurance at $268.00 monthly.

I've been with them for 26 years.

Easy, hassle-free to deal with.

Good service and cheap rates.

They are very supportive in handling claims and working with policyholders.

Fast and easy!

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.

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.

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.

Good service.

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.

Unjustified increase in insurance rates and poor efficiency in resolving claims.

They raised my rates without any explanation.

They doubled my premiums! Horrible now! No, no accidents nor any claims. Just picking on senior citizens to take advantage of! Too sad, I've had them for years!

They raise the rates every year. There’s no loyalty incentive to stay with them.

My agent's name was Mary. When I joined Geico, I gave Mary my debit card information for my down payment. The next day, she sent me an email saying the information did not work, so I repeated the same debit card number directly from the card. I also gave her my checking account routing number and account number. Approximately a week later, I tried to use my debit card to pay my bills, but my debit card had been disabled for possible fraud due to the fact that Mary submitted my payment through an agency outside of the USA. This caused me delays in paying my monthly bills. I had to physically go to my credit union to be issued a new debit card. That caused delays in paying my obligations and late penalty fees. I am not happy with the agent's actions and procedures when she was not efficient in doing things correctly after being given correct information twice.

Once you're a client, they don't give you any incentive for being a loyal customer.

I have enrolled with a different insurance company since Geico allowed my policy to lapse with their poor customer service.

Geico gave me one monthly rate, and then increased the rate a few days after I purchased the policy.

Really check pricing.

They keep increasing the rates every 6 months even without any incidents.

The insurance I pay on my vehicles takes too much money out of my pocket. The rate in Massachusetts is too high.

Frustrating. No accidents or tickets in more than 10 years, and they keep raising my policy.

Geico raised my rates without any explanation.

At least they don't make changes to our policy without letting me know.

Not so great since they want you to pay extra to make a payment.

At first, Geico was good, but then my payments began to get higher and higher.

They are rude, make changes without notifying you, and when you find out, they are unable to make anything right. They are expensive and often remove discounts without reason, and you have to fight hard to have them reinstated.

I'm paying too much. I have received quotes that are cheaper. I would like to stay with Geico if they would bring my rates down.

One day it's 88 bucks, next week it's 97 bucks, another week it's 111 bucks, and last week to pay the bill it goes to 127 bucks. Crazy.

Rates are too high. I've been with them for a very long time, and my rates never seem to get any lower. Most of the time, they even increase with no explanation!

It is frustrating in some areas and good in others. I had a claim, and that was handled well. However, I was supposed to fill out a questionnaire and send a lot of documents that I have never had to send with other insurance carriers. The problem is the questionnaire was never sent to me. As a result of not filling out the questionnaire, I never received it, and my policy was canceled. I requested the questionnaire twice via email, as that was the only way to get it, and I never received a response.

Insurance isn’t a legal scam, it’s all about making money. Every renewal they charge you more, it doesn’t matter that you have no claims or points on your license. It’s sad that you are not able to trust your insurance company to do the right thing for their customers.

They are a good company but don't abide by state rules on mileage discounts and keep the price high. I could get all the discounts with other companies. Geico gives me none. I've been driving for over 70 years and have never had a ticket, accident, or any DUIs—I don't drink. I was also a driving teacher for many years. But I still get no discounts that I'm supposed to get.

Too expensive and they raised the rates without telling me.

Don't use Geico. They assured me that my rate would not change when my car was vandalized, but my rate went up $100. They assured me they would not pay the fraud claim from another driver. Instead, they not only paid the claim, labeled the incident my fault, and again raised my rates. The only thing keeping me with them is that I can't find another agency that will cover my Hyundai with the same coverage for less than what I'm paying now.

Normally, when you are financing a car, you're supposed to have full coverage. Apparently, I didn’t, and my catalytic converter was stolen off my car. I didn’t know I didn’t have comprehensive coverage, so now I have to pay out of pocket. I'm still financing my car.

Don't use the tracker app as it is wildly inaccurate. Don't expect a discount for loyalty. Customer service is less than helpful.

I was with GEICO for seven years and kept requesting a review of my policy because the premium kept going up. I was told that insurance was going up everywhere because of the economy, not because I had a claim. I found better insurance at more than $100 a month off of what I was currently paying.

Too expensive, but it doesn't matter. Geico is the cheapest.

Stay away from them. I hit a raccoon and it took 6 months to get fixed. They made the body shop take the whole front end off the car to show parts the body shop said needed repair, and then it was an additional 3 months. The car could not be driven the entire summer, but Geico didn't care that you had no car to drive. They had no claims adjusters of their own. They lowball every claim and then make it miserable to wait for approval.

Geico raised my auto insurance by $600 for 2026, so I canceled my policy effective 1/20/2026.

They charge way too much and always threaten to cancel my policy if my payment is a day late.

I drive very little. I'm 75 and I'm paying $100 a month for insurance, which is ridiculous. I have talked to them, and they're not willing to adjust the rate. Each year, it just goes up and up.

I have been with Geico for over twenty-eight years. They are overcharging me and raising my rates without notice. They have become too expensive for my budget.

Geico will raise your rate to 5 times anybody else rather than just cancel you. I saved 80% switching to Allstate with exactly the same coverage and deductible. Geico now joins with Allstate as my two "never again" companies. 20+ years with both and both tried to run me into poverty at the end.

Even though their voice announcement system when you call them indicates that a live representative will come on the line shortly, that rarely, if ever, occurs. Furthermore, they regularly charge at least double what the Texas Motor Vehicle Crime Prevention Authority specifies is allowable to reimburse themselves for the fee that they pay to them.

Find out if the car insurance you get is not going to inflate after one year.

I recently switched to Progressive. GEICO continuously raised their prices for no reason at all. I was with them for five years, and each year we got bumped up in price. It’s very subtle, 2 to 3 dollars every six months. I think they’re making free money on those not keeping track. That’s sneaky, and I don’t appreciate that kind of business.
