Did your car insurance rates go up?
I just got my renewal bill and it went up quite a bit. I called to see if there was anything I could do. I was told all the rates went up. I am thinking of calling around. I am with Allstate.

We just got a new car (a lease), in February, so my premium obviously went up. But, Geico gave us, by far, the best deal. We are paying $231 a month (not including DH's car), Allstate quoted me $450!!

I pay 550 every 6 months. I’ve been with Geico for years and the only time my rate changes is when I get a new lease every 3 years.

I have Geico for at least 10 years, no tickets or accidents, and mine goes up every 6 months it seems. Just a few bucks, but it's annoying!

Re: Did your car insurance rates go up?
Mine never does to be honest. I even got in an accident a few years ago that was my fault and I was SHOCKED that it did not go up even then. (it was my first accident so maybe they had accident forgiveness, who knows)

Mine went up in February bc of increase of medical insurance, that’s what I was told. I got it lowered with having a BJ’s membership (a few dollars) but also changed the distance driven on one car. You can also have them run your credit for an additional discount (already had this).

Re: Did your car insurance rates go up?
Mine consistently goes up every 6 months. I call and they give me some bs about standard rate increases. And no accidents, no tickets, good credit, etc.
I end up having to switch carriers every year or two to get back to the lower rate....until the new company starts raising rates again. It's a pain in the butt. There is no customer loyalty anywhere anymore IMO.

Re: Did your car insurance rates go up?
Yes! I’m with Allstate too. It’s a pretty big hike. Enough that I questioned it, got no clear answer. Clean driving record, no accidents. Think I need to shop around.

Is that 550 for one car or two cars?

I am under the credit discount. How do you change distance used on car? One car is not used very much.

We have one car that gets driven less than 8k a year, they had me at 10K. Geico took my word but you may have to show proof, such as the inspection receipt.
