insurance hike!!!
insurance hike!!!
word of caution, if no one has experienced this yet...
I received my 6 month premium from Geico today... my comp and collision went up over $450 for 6 months (comp - 100 up to 270, coll - 255 up to 522). I have not had any accidents in the last 3 years or tickets (just filed small comp claim, less than 500 bucks for a deer). Of frikkin course i called Geico, they stated that the car has been flagged as a vehicle involved in street racing, and a independent organization, which ALL insurance companies draw information from (not just Geico).... is this BS???... It seems getting a quote from progressive and esurance are showing the same thing... How many others have experienced this????
I am almost 30, married w/ two kids... all the frikking kids need to stop racing a wrecking these cars, cause all the "normal' drivers are getting f_cked.
edit... added this info
called geico back -
they told me to look at http://www.mdinsurance.state.md.us/
which really didnt show me anything, so i asked what caused the "hike" in cost. They commented that after 2 years, the vehicles get re-evaluated for the cost of fixing / repairs, parts, etc... and that the car with my vin type (mistu evo) was rated with a "n" and now is rated at a "u" (jumped 7 points). geico also stated that anyone who has this vehicle through geico will see this increase.... thats what i want to find out.

I told them to stick it and moved my insurance over to State Farm. No issues with State Farm...
