VETERANS BEWARE OF GEICO!!…read more Today Geico sends a txt saying they're raising my rate from 442.00 a month to 1150.00 per month ( coverage for my wife, son and I on two vehicles- one is paid off, one is financed with GM). I called them and they had my 24 year old college student ( on deans list) as driving with a permit which he has not since he was 19. They updated his info and then it went to 1800.00 a month!! I laughed. I then asked if they remove me from the policy as I am a disabled Veteran and don't drive any longer ( I'm the only one in the family that had several fender benders causing the rate to go up). Get this! The agent says well you will have to surrender your license to the motor vehicle division, then provide proof. He actually said that. Just to entertain his comment and not surrendering my identification to anyone) I said ok I'll do it Monday. He stumbled then said well it won't make a difference in the new rate. Keep in mind my son and wife have never had an accident or moving violation EVER. I do not need to surrender my DL. If they were concerned of me driving and got into an accident it simply wouldn't be covered by them. Period!! What a crock. They claim they support vets. Then I told them we definitely would not be renewing our policy. If I did I won't drive period. ( like I said don't need to drive at all wife can) they said I couldn't do that I said watch me. They said I would have to surrender my drivers license to DMV and provide them a copy of it. I said maybe with Geico but you're on notice I'm shopping this first thing tomorrow and if I have to not drive for a year or so until one of them is over 3 years old so be it. They then said well i let's see what we can do. Raised all the deductibles and bare minimum coverage treating me like it was Christmas said 887.50 a month. I said have a great rest of your day. Any advice here? Obviously going to shop and adjust to whatever. We got a new quote from State Farm for within 50.00 of our policy with Gecko..I didn't spell it wrong there colors change with the climate..

Horrible prices are doubled and still added another 50 dollars. I live in the city and I drive 6…read moremiles a day. Never been into an accident but still raise my insurance. Soon our car insurance will cost more than a mortgage. Who can help save this country from greed! What a shame
