I have 4 cars with 2 teenage drivers. I've been with Geico for 9 years. I pay 500/month. There have been two minor fender benders in the last year. Maybe 1500 in repairs. I get a renewal notice jacking it to 800/month. Here's a recap.
Me: I'm not paying any increase or adjusting my coverage Geico. I will just go elsewhere.
Geico: See ya. Bye.
Me: Hello new insurance company. Here's my 500 down payment for my 350/month new coverage. YEEHAA. Thanks Geico, you saved me 150/mnth.
Me: Hello Geico. Cancel my policy
Geico: Oh Mr. Andress. We have a new rate schedule and we can cover you for 277/month with slightly more coverage.
Me: Are you freaking kidding me. Why the hell didn't you tell me that last night instead of pissing me off and telling me to go away.
Geico: I don't know Mr. Andress. They should have offered you this. I'll follow up with the girl you talked with.
Me: Set it up right now on the phone so It's all complete before I call new insurance company I just gave 500 Dollars too 40 minutes ago to give me my money back. Stupid Geico. Saving 230/month due do your own greedy stupidity.
They must play this game thinking a percentage won't get better rates and will just stick with the new rates. How in the hell they could justify that attempted increase is beyond me.
