GEICO



My personal experience with GEICO has been very pleasant.  I switched to
GEICO after roughly 10 years of claim-free State Farm coverage.  The switch
was no problem b/c of the lack of prior accidents and/or claims.  Since
switching two years ago I have had two accidents (neither my fault) and two
resulting claims since both drivers were uninsured.

What surprised me was GEICO's service for accident #1.  I was driving my
brother's car which did not have collision (removed from his coverage, which
was also with GEICO, a month earlier) when I was rear-ended.  The reason I
wasn't in the quattro is that I had just dropped it off at the shop for some
work.  I made a claim with GEICO for the repair damage to the car since it
fell under my car's coverage as a "temporary substitute vehicle."  GEICO
honored the claim without any questions.  They didn't a) ask to see the
receipt for work done on the quattro, b) ask for an affidavit from my
mechanic, or c) they didn't even call the mechanic.

I have no complaints.
