Frustrated

I got my car insurance bill for Geico today, and my premium went UP, not down like it usually does-- even though I haven't gotten pulled over or a ticket or anything! I called them today and they said that it was because the town where I live has become a greater risk area. I'm not quite sure if that is complete bullshit or not, but I just have this awful feeling that they completely dicked me over and I did nothing but accept it. Sometimes I get so mad at myself when talking to these people on the phone for not being pushier. I call and it usually doesn't accomplish anything-- actually come to think of it, I've mad three similar phone calls to other people in the past few days and they didn't change anything. I'm feeling kind of down now, just because I hate feeling like I am a pushover...

Man, that sucks. I hope things get better. Have you tried looking into other insurance providers? State Farm is alot cheaper in my area than Geico and I live in Sin City. Have you tried them?

Channel your inner bitch and call them back. And see if you can get any additional discounts from schools you went to or the company you work for or organizations you belong to. Don't take no for an answer!!!!

Shop around, and if someone else is cheaper, go with them. Nothing makes a company question their own pricing schedule like losing a customer to a competitor.
