Complaint Review: geico - Washington District of Columbia

I am a former employee of GEICO, and a licensed Property and Casualty (220) Insurance agent in the state of Florida. All insurance companies must file with the state in advance any rating/premium changes that will take place, and have these filings approved by that state's Department of Insurance. There are many reasons that could cause increases with a particular policy-- changes in vehicle, changes in coverages, changes in age of drivers, tickets and accidents, etc. as well as sometimes there are across the board rate increases due to increased costs/inflation. Each company uses different criteria to determine rates based on what works best for that company. If GEICO's rates are too high, then shop around... that's the beauty of living in a capitalistic society-- you can always go somewhere else.

So not funny...I didnt ask for the discount geico recommended it. when i was offered the healthcare discount I saved a staggering $5.00. With the discount removed I pay $266.60 more - get real, your just ripping people off. I have never filed a claim ever. I have never been ticketed ever. As i stated, my driving history is excellent. Typical of big business "only criminals win."

You're a health care worker? Does that make you special? Why should other drivers have to subsidize your auto insurance. My rates as well as everybody elses have been going up. By the way do you have any claims in the last three years? If not then switch to another carrier. There are hundreds of insurance companies out there. Bottom line is other policyholders should not have to pay higher premiums to subsidize others because of their employment. Maybe I'll switch to GEICO. I have not filed a claim in ten years or had a ticket either.
