Geico Auto Insurance
Phone quote required insuring unregistered second car and online quote was lower

When I was shopping for auto insurance I tried calling Geico since they offer so many discounts according to their ads on TV, radio and magazines. The famous "I just saved 15% on my car insurance". Well don't believe everything you see in their ads. There is no way a company spending millions of dollars a year in advertising isn't going to rip you off. Your insurance premium pays the "Gecko's" (lizard) salary.

I first called to get a quote for my car because my other insurance company premiums had jacked it up a little too high. The phone rep asked me if I had other vehicles, so I responded telling her yes I did but the other car I had was in storage and under repairs (project) and wasn't even registered yet. She put me on hold after 5 minutes and came back to tell she was sorry but in order to insure my present vehicle I was calling for I had to insure the other one too. Now is that ridiculous or what? That was strike one.

I called them back in 5 minutes and spoke to another rep; of course I did not mention the other vehicle because it did not matter. After 10 minutes he quotes me a total of $465 for a 6 month policy, that was $105 dollars more than what I paying for with my other carrier which. I told him that it was too high and that I had a lower premium with my other carrier, His response was "that can't be, we are the cheapest", yeah right! Consider this strike two.

So just to do some research, I went online and to got a quote from them to see what surprise I would encounter. Turned out after 10 minutes, the online quote was $340 for the same vehicle. That proved to me that this company is fraudulent as well a "big joke" and not to be taken seriously if you value honesty and good service.
