Geico really is saving me $400
October 5, 2009
Turns out that the tagline isn’t such a gimmick after all.
Rather than waiting for my current insurance term to end, the new policy’s scheduled to start midweek. Even with only a little more than a month to go, it’s worth it to get a small refund from Mercury and put it toward the new policy now. Why pay 1/6 of a $1000 policy when I can use that to start a new $600 policy?
The deductibles are lower, and the coverage is actually a little better, too! I did a bit of research and it seems like there’s an even split between people who love and hate just about every insurance company that it’s worth taking the chance on Geico. My other choice was Progressive but for every kind of coverage, they were $200+ more costly than Geico.
I just renewed our policy but I think it is time to shop around again, progressive was the cheapest option for us a few years ago but maybe they aren’t anymore. I’ll have to add geico to our list to get quotes from.
I love Geico! I’ve been in a few accidents recently and they make everything so easy. Their people are nice and helpful. And you should check to see if you get any discount for your college or anything like that.
Miss M: I make it a point to search for better policies in the middle of the previous one, or long before I actually need it.
me in millions: Oh I’m so glad to hear someone actually has Geico and likes it! They seem to have automatically assigned some discounts already, my college isn’t on the list, sadly.
