Let me count the ways Geico screwed me. 1. Refused to pull…read moreme out of a snow drift in February because I was in a parking lot. Told me to "wait until the snow melts." 2. Paid $20 for emergency gas, got one gallon. Ran out, nearly froze to death. Snotty bitch at customer service said "what do you want me to do about it?" 3. Falsely placed an at fault accident on my CLUE report, causing my insurance to TRIPLE. 4. Changed a claim to an accident to justify non-renewal 5. I never received the non-renewal notice, which was my fault. but the day my policy ended, they sent a deceptive and misleading letter telling me all of my policy options, leading me to believe I still had insurance. Their explanation? "That's a standard letter," as if that makes it ok. 6. My premium went from 200 to 700/month. INCOMPETENT APATHETIC SMUG DISHONEST SCAM

Not impressed with their lack of professionalism. GEICO was very excited to give me quotes as I…read morewas considering switching my auto, homeowners, and umbrella policies. Multiple emails from a rep trying to set up a phone call, which I finally scheduled. Young rep I spoke to on the phone was enthusiastic and I spent a lot of time on the phone with him as he asked me many, many questions for each policy quote. At the end of it, he says my one car was flagged and GEICO is going to send me a form to fill out. My one car is a sports car (it's in my Yelp profile pic) and while it happens to have a roll cage in it, it's also registered for the street. OK, sure, I understand it may require further scrutiny - it's not your normal car. Well, the form comes and it is a rehash of all the questions I'd already answered - nothing in particular to focus on my sports car. It took me over an hour to fill out the ridiculously long form (had to be over 6 pages or more). I mailed it back and... nothing. No more calls from this local GEICO office, no response from GEICO corporate, nothing. I'd been ghosted by them. If GEICO doesn't want to insure this vehicle, just come out and tell me. I'm a retiree - I can handle it. Don't waste my time with this form only to never contact me again. The emails, the phone calls - they all stopped. After I got no response I figured out they just wanted me to go away, and were hoping their form would scare me off, but weren't able to tell me up front and avoid wasting my time. Went with a local independent agency who represents a NY-based underwriter, so my premiums are actually employing fellow NYers and I'm saving similar money as I would if GEICO deigned to pretend I exist. I like that. And, we discussed my sports car and I was offered advice on how to have it insured. Professional - the way I would expect to be treated. GEICO could learn something from this independent agency.

Is it weird to love your car insurance agency? I also use them for my home insurance…read more I have been using this agency my entire car driving life. My dad uses the same agency so I ended up using them as well. They have incredible staff and I always know they are there to help if I pick up the phone or email. They know my name, if I just say it's Corie. It's makes you feel like they care. Any claims have always been easy peasy. I recently had a chip in my windshield and it only took 3 minutes total to get set up with a local repair shop in the app. Ive had some dings on my car repaired, and this chip repaired, my insurance has never went up! There are multiple ways to get a discount including auto pay and drive wise. I also recently requested they re run me to see if I could get any discounts, both my car and home insurance dropped a good amount! I highly recommend Aaron's agency, they will take care of you.

When I received notification of the lapse in coverage from DMV, which informed us that the insurance company had to make the change via their DMV portal, we notified the agency. They replied that the issue had been resolved. It wasn't, because I then received a notification of suspension from DMV. Mistakes happen, but the mistake, together with their failure to correct it while telling us they had, and their utter lack of accountability, lead to my opinion that the only improvement would be to close. My rating would be 0 stars if that was an option.
