Auto Insurance

Its life its called inflation. Happens to medical, life, auto, home owners. Everything. Even Childcare and school. It sucks but nothing we can do.

Sounds like it is time to find a new insurance company. They'll be losing a lot more customers/money with raising rates like that.

Shop around.

Yes, ours went up about $130 for 6 months.

How is it messed up? They're a business. If they're losing money, they're going to want to increase their profits, and as an insurance company, the only way to do that is to raise rates.

Shop around for a better rate. I have GEICO and have never been unhappy with what I pay.

I have had Geico for years. I will see in May if the rates go up too much.

Normal

I had Progressive as my first company and it sucked and was super expensive. I've been with Geico for years and they have been great. I tried another company for a year because my husband convinced me to get a multiple policy discount but it really didn't compare to Geico, so I went back to Geico. Rates have barely gone up and it's usually only a few dollars for all these years. One of my past roommates also had Geico and his parked car got totaled by a sleeping driver and Geico made it so easy for him and basically gave him a check for a new car.

Is the $20/year or /month? If it's /year that's really not that much of an increase. It's actually reasonable. If it's /month that's a lot and I'd check around.
