Insurance rate went up on SI

SI_Smiley · 12-30-2007, 12:16 PM

hey all...my geico 6 month term was up for renewal and low and behold i saw my new bill and it went up around $50+. i called geico and they said the symbol for the SI went up cuz from more research and findings they're finding its more costly to repair/fix an SI.

did anyone else get this? or did geico just f me over? i'm looking into finding another insurance agency.

Geico is high as anything in New Jersey. The insurance company I use is Mercury Insurance. It's great for my age. Look it up.

4door · 12-30-2007, 12:34 PM

mine went up too roughly $20 from a ex. nationwide told me it was a sports car

jeremy0203 · 12-30-2007, 12:35 PM

hmmm every time my insurance has renewed it has gone down for continuing to be a customer but of course i dont have geico

MutantCheese · 12-30-2007, 12:57 PM

Mine went up $20 bucks for 6mths as well...

Tim620X · 12-30-2007, 01:25 PM

My newest statement actually went down about $20 through Geico. *Knock on wood* When I called and got my insurance back in Aug. I got the best rate through them and the guy I talked to said my insurance would go down once January hit and again once my B-Day hit.

Sometimes it is cheaper to start a new policy with the same company. I did this for years with Progressive. Each time I got a renewal notice. I simply went online and did a new customer quote - it was always cheaper so I just took out a new policy number.

try that.

interesting, my statefarm went up about 50$ for my 6months too, on an EX.

SF said the civic was proven to be "more prone" to flipping than 3 months ago.

mine went down?..

AllShowNoGo · 12-30-2007, 08:34 PM

i have yet to find out since my renewal is in February, and my agent told me that my rates would not go up. I hope Progressive doesn't jack up rates just b/c my civic is badged as an Si. Paying $290/month is starting to catch up with my wallet.

striker_1818 · 12-30-2007, 08:42 PM

I have geico and mine went down by 350 granted i have an ex now.
Before I was paying 800. Now, I'm paying 450 every 6 months.

AllShowNoGo · 12-30-2007, 08:45 PM

It depends where you live and what insurance you got.

buurner · 12-30-2007, 10:01 PM

Well I pay 200$ a month for an SI and I just renewed my policy when I got my SI and I have Geico so I'm hoping when I turn 21 in May it will Go Down some more. Geico has been good to me.

HeLLz aNgeL · 12-30-2007, 11:18 PM

hahahaha ... my insurance went down ~$20/month for my ex ....

its now below $100, and im 21 !!! i'm loving geico !!!

buurner · 12-30-2007, 11:31 PM

It seems like every year my insurance gets cheaper with geico. Hopefully being 21 can get me to 150$ just hoping my good student discount actually saves me 209.00/6 months

Whocares05050 · 12-30-2007, 11:33 PM

I have geico, and mine went down 11 dollars a month

***sh33t_0f_p4p3r*** · 12-30-2007, 11:58 PM

140 a month, 21 florida..... geico fa5

buurner · 12-31-2007, 12:44 AM

Those look like some good numbers for Geico... Im hoping for the same...
