Geico insurance
Premium Jumped From $562 to $911 After Short Policy Lapse

I've been with Geico insurance for about a year and upon my policy coming to an end on 11/5/09 they told me when I renew my policy the premium would go down because of some violations coming off. I have 1 superchargable offense that they can charge me for. But my main vehicle with full coverage was in-operable due to no state inspection and also a shot transmission. I left my truck at the dealer since they said it was going to take 2-3 weeks to fix. I decided to not renew my policy till then. I called geico to pay off my $64 dollar balance and they asked if I wanted to renew and I explained that I don't have a car right now because its being fixed and I would renew in a couple of weeks, they ran my info, not my drivers license and said I would go from paying $562 for 2 cars for 6 months to paying $911 for 6 months. When I asked how they can do that they said well you let your insurance lapse and I explained that I don't have to have insurance when I don't have a car and therefore I'm not paying an extra $300 because I don't want to carry insurance especially since I spoke to the dmv and they said I'm not required to insure a car I'm not driving on the road. Also they said they found a violation on my record of loaning my license to another driver and I was always wondering how that was possible because I've never given my license to anyone else and certainly I would know about this. But Geico insists that they are giving me the best rate even know I am no longer required to carry sr22, and other violations are set to come off. Also I'm supposed to get a military, and multi car discount so answer me this how can they rip me off $300 They lie and will cheat you. Do not insure with geico save yourself the hassle. I will be contacting my attorney I think the federal trade commission should step in so they can't do that to others.
