1. Geico is a very good insurance company..They don't deal with an agent, so have got lower rates..Also, they are very reputed..I would highly recommend them.. http://www.healthinsuranceace.com
2. I had GEICO for about 11 years and LOVED them. Each and every time I contacted their Customer Service folks, I was treated with respect. Although I had several complex situations, the GEICO reps always offered great solutions. The phone wait before speaking with a rep is nearly non-existant, with very little wait, if any. Another thing I loved about GEICO is its web site. Very easy to navigate, easy to make on-line payments (either one at a time or recurring). You can request your policy documents be available on-line instead of being mailed to you, which prevents inadvertant loss of your documents. I had to leave GEICO when I moved out of state and bought a 200-year-old house. GEICO doesn't insure historic houses, so by switching my car insurance to the insurer that issued my homeowners policy, I saved a ton of money. Too bad, because I really enjoyed being a GEICO customer. I hope this helps.
3. When it comes to buying auto insurance, GEICO is trying hard to get you to switch. The company spent more than a hundred million dollars on advertising last year. The commercials make it look like a phone call to GEICO could mean big savings. Consumer Reports checked to see. "Fifteen minutes could save you 15 percent or more on car insurance." Consumer Reports checked out that catchy ad line, asking staffers to make a call to GEICO. "I am calling to get a quote on GEICO auto insurance." They wanted to see if GEICO would give them a quote in 15 minutes and just how much they could save on their car insurance. GEICO did deliver the quotes in about 15 minutes or so. But only four of the 14 people who called would save by switching to GEICO. The others would actually be paying more. "I'd be paying about 200 dollars more with GEICO than with my current insurer." Some would have seen an even bigger increase with GEICO. Six-hundred-and-eighteen dollars more for this staffer. And 689 dollars more for this staffer. "If GEICO gets you to make a phone call to check out what their rates are. That is great. Just don't stop at GEICO. Keep calling. A few phone calls can save you hundreds of dollars in auto insurance premiums every year." Cheap car insurance is best found by investing time, educating yourself and comparison shopping.
