Good luck when you have a claim


We had a pretty good claim through GEICO with my wife and didn't have any issues, rates didn't go up due to accident forgiveness.

Quality Plus is fair. Been knowing them for years.

Quality Plus are good folks. Made everything easy and saved me a good bit of money on home/auto with the same coverages.

I was about to save that much til they discovered my tickets. Though State Farm, despite their huge rate hike, said they were not seeing my tickets so they weren't a factor.

Travelers sux balls. A close friend was screwed over so bad by them on his homeowners claim post-Katrina that he had to bankroll his own repairs and then sue them.

Switched to Geico about two years ago. Saved a ton of money, but I was worried about claims. Hit a small deer in my wife's Mercedes. Couldn't be happier with the way the claim was handled.

Geico homeowner's is whole other story. Pretty bad rates compared to other companies.

I keep shopping but can't find anything cheaper than state farm. Probably a regional thing.

I made the switch after having State Farm for over 15 years. An independent agent priced a couple different companies for me and I priced Geico myself online. I ended up going with Safeco and saved about $1750 a year.

Talk to auto repair shop owners. They will tell you Geico is just as good as State Farm in paying for claims quickly and very fairly.


Talk to me. That's bullshite. Geico is the absolute worst when it comes to auto property and injury claims.
