Progressive has their price comparison for a reason. Call em up and they'll tell you what they will give you as well as everyone else. Mine with my A8 ended up being cheapest with Citizen's insurance. Geico is crap on their inner workings.

Why? Do you have a specific instance or details from a claim? I'm not defending Geico, I just want to know what the statement is based on. Thanks!

I've had many friends have their cars sent to unreliable shops or been short diagnosed and short changed on their car's damage insepctions, via Geico. Thats all, besides that call around and see whoevers cheapest, best thing you can do like I said personally for me Citizen's was cheapest.

i was just in an accident and have geico. the process was extremely smooth and everyone that i spoke to was very helpful. the car was towed to a geico certified repair shop. all repairs made are guaranteed for the life of the vehicle (as long as i own it). i plan to move from nyc to la in a year and if anything goes wrong i can always take it to another geico certified repair shop in la to get the repairs done for free. the online site for geico was good too. tons of photos posted plus a detailed list of repairs and parts replaced. only complaint is it took FOREVER for them to repair it. as they told me though, they were consistenly waiting for audi parts to arrive. it was a minor rear ending but it turned out to be $10,000 worth of repairs. i just paid $500 deductible, thank God!

That's the kind of thing I'm talking about! Real life experiences. Nice! I can understand the delay for parts. Body shops kinda run at their own pace too. Anyway, you wouldn't want to rush them. It really is an art to get everything right again.

Thanks for the post, chazertis.
