I am sure everyone here has at some point or other seen those GEICO ads claiming to save you at least 15% on your auto insurance? Well for me it turned out to be a much better deal. I did have my insurance with Allstate and thought I'd check around this time and got quotes from both Progressive ( it was even higher than Allstate) and GEICO. Using the same info, same deductibles and same amount of coverage GEICO was cheaper over 30%.

I have never used GEICO before but when selling cars those clients who did use this company always seemed to be very pleased. I remember someone praising the geico roadside assistance program too. I am not one who usually likes to change the status-quo but this was enough difference I thought it was worth a try.

Thought I'd pass it along it was coming time to renew for others too.

Yes, Geico's primary aim has been to do auto insurance business, but now for quite sometime they are into home insurance business. When I check out on the probable reasons for Geico's success within a shorter span of time, a number of reasons would come to the surface-

* Geico would generate a lot of internet leads

* Geico would outsource their lead-generation to call centres
Many of these attempts have been undertaken by their competitors of late. ArindamSenIndies

Huh, I got a couple of sources more!
They had life insurance business proposals for the insure.com. Yes, they would directly gather leads through their website & call centers. But, they'd mostly get home insurance leads from the Insurance Counselors Inc.

If your in an accident you will see why you saved a ton of money.....they like to throw Non-oem parts on your car. Doesn't do a whole lot for the value of your vehicle.

Come on Body man, you think Gieco is the only company that uses non-oem parts? I'd venture that 99.9% do...based on certain critera, with the possible exception of states such as MN that do not allow it without owners consent....then no carrier can in those states..
