WILL REMAIN LOYAL TO GEICO AS LONG AS GEICO IS LOYAL TO ME
Geico has been loyal to me in terms of overall premium consistency, remaining largely lower than its competitors. As long as Geico remains loyal to me, I will be loyal to Geico. Case in point, one automobile insurer recently showed me a premium quote that impressively undercut Geico. However, I rejected this insurance provider due to my loyalty to Geico and remembering this other insurance company's reputation for quickly over-inflating its premium prices.

Very thorough and helpful in explaining everything. They have been very kind, and so far, I’ve had a very good experience with them. Thank you all for being so kind and for making sure I fully understood before I hung up. Love these guys.

Excellent Customer Service
I've had a great experience with Geico. In my opinion, they need to lower my insurance. I'm a 62-year-old female who hardly drives anywhere. I've been driving since I was 16. I'm an excellent driver and I've never had a ticket in my life, but I pay $97.00 per month. I drive a 2019 Jeep Cherokee. Not fair! That's what I would tell my friend!

Geico, Great Company
Call Geico for car insurance. I compared all other insurance companies, spent 2 days on the computer and my cell phone. No other company that advertised they are cheap could come close to Geico. Some companies that advertise as cheap were quoting prices of $1,200.00 a year. I pay $800.00 a year for full coverage with Geico.

Goodbye Geico!
Not sure why I had to pay so much (around $135/month) for the minimum coverage (PIP). That is why I shopped around and finally switched to Progressive, which is slightly cheaper.

Once upon a time they were affordable...
After 11 loyal years with Geico, once deregulation was in effect, their base rates skyrocketed. It's hard for seniors on a fixed income.

Geico Literally Saved My Life!!!
Back in 2013, a Geico representative informed me of a trap by the local law enforcement. It ultimately saved me. I was eventually found not guilty by a jury of my peers of vehicular homicide. But it was Geico that was trying to investigate my accident and was thwarted by local law enforcement, and stopped their efforts to get to the bottom of it. By warning me that the police were secretly trying to indict me, I was able to get an attorney and fight for my innocence. For that, I am eternally grateful and will use Geico as my insurance representative till the day I die!

Not the cheapest, but they seem to be there for you
The car insurance seems a little expensive. I wanted to have some extras with it like towing, which was a bit pricey. However, I like the fact that I could sign up with them personally without needing to provide information on my entire family, who have their own vehicle and motorcycle insurance. They are pretty much the same price as the rest, but a little on the higher range.

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 😏
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.

Geico Is Not Cost Efficient
I have used Geico since 2006 on and off, and this will be my last time. They are notorious for raising my premium every renewal time. This very month I paid $188.00, and my renewal for March is $244.47—a fifty-six dollar a month increase on a 2022 Chevrolet Trax. I am on a dire fixed income and cannot afford this. I will never use Geico again. I need cheap insurance with full coverage.

Do not buy. They don’t want to help you with a claim. They add their own coverage that is not in the policy. Very hard to get a hold of an adjuster if you need them.

Poor. Quoting me over a thousand a month? No thanks. Went to Progressive instead.

I’m not about to use them again. They raise the price every time I have to renew. It’s ridiculous to pay as much as I do for simple liability only.

GEICO Won’t Save You Money—It Only Charges More Than Other Companies
GEICO’s prices were higher than any other insurance company for me, despite their advertising about low prices.
Julie

They used to be the best
Geico used to be a great insurance company that offered the best customer care. Over the last 10 to 15 years, they have become like all companies, greedy and money-hungry. I have been with Geico for over 20 years just for their caring attitude; they outshined most companies. It's not like that anymore. They have become a greedy company with very poor customer care and very high prices, with a 'pay it or lose it' attitude. After all these years, I'm leaving and will give my money to a different company.

Raising rates for no reason other than greed
Rates just kept going up and up for no reason. Just corporate greed. Progressive is even worse. Dropping Progressive currently. Found insurance for $60 a month less with a lesser-known company.

Geico Two-Step
I have multiple insurance companies currently. Geico needs better training for their representatives. Don’t tell customers one thing and then tell the consumer the exact opposite from the next representative. I will never use Geico again, even though they are almost 50% cheaper than State Farm, Allstate, or Progressive.

Discounts for Auto Insurance
All was good until my policy lapsed for two or three days because I was in the hospital. Then, all of a sudden, my insurance jumped forty dollars a month, and it has remained there for some time. I feel like I am not getting the discounts that I should be receiving. I have had no tickets or accidents in over five years, yet I'm still paying a very high price for the cheapest insurance I could get. I shop all the time for insurance because I feel that Geico is not offering me the best deal.

Geico not the value anymore. Compare, shop and save!
Shop around - I had Geico for 30 years and they kept increasing the premiums until they got out of hand. I shopped around and got the lowest rate from Hartford for the whole year, not 6 months, which was what Geico was charging me!

I've heard the longer you stay with a vehicle insurance policy, the more they keep charging you. This seems to be the case with Geico.

Too expensive for just liability!
When I started with Geico, it was affordable, but my rates keep going up. Over the last 6 months, it's been ridiculous. I don’t think I should be paying so much for just liability, and I'm on a fixed income. I don't know if there are any discounts out there for being disabled and a senior, but that would be so helpful.

I didn't have a discount with them the whole time I was with them. Every year my insurance went up, and when I asked them why, they told me that was their policy.

Insurance Challenges
Mediocre. I had 4 non-fault accidents, 2 hit-and-run accidents ($500 deductible each, not my fault!), and 2 accidents (100% the other driver's fault, not my fault!), and they raised my insurance cost! 😞 I have been insured with GEICO for almost 10 years. Not happy, but I must keep insured by law!

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.
