Geico
Student Discount Denied for Nine Graduate Credit Hours

Cars & Transport

After five years with Allstate, I switched to Geico for a lower premium. Their quote included a student discount just like the one I had been receiving under Allstate since I was in high school. I am now a graduate student in college, and Geico claims that nine credit hours of graduate-level coursework does not make me a full-time student, so I am ineligible for the discount. It's funny that they didn't bother mentioning that when I told them that I'm a graduate student during the quoting process, since there are almost no graduate students who take more than three courses a semester.

Now I'm paying more than I did under Allstate because my friendly Geico agent wasn't upfront about their discount rules. Thanks, Geico.
