By NOT switching to Geico.
Geico was $80 more per month than we are paying now, Allstate was $30 more than we pay now.
Farmers hosed us and increased our rates for the third time in 6 months.
We have no accidents or tickets and they keep saying it's just a standard rate increase.
So I made some calls tonight and USAA hooked us up with Liberty Insurance for $600 less per 6 months.
$100/month less. One hundred freakin dollars per month!
If my father was a USAA member, I could have saved more or if I was still paid by DOD or Feds, I could have saved more. But USAA has a deal with Liberty for those people who's parents qualified, but are not members, because they are deceased or no longer driving.
And since Liberty Mutual doesn't do manufactured home insurance, they have a partner company that will save us about $100/year with better coverage.

This sounds like an infomercial, they should hire you as a spokesman0

LOL!
I'm one of those people when I find something that does well, I share.
Not sure how many people even know of USAA insurance. It's geared to the military or federal employees, but GEICO was originally for govt employees too.
I hate insurance companies. I usually have a sore ass after dealing with them.In Fumo Pax

We had problems with State Farm raising our rates and then not explaining why. This after using them nearly my entire driving life and never having a problem until about 4 years ago. We switched to AllState. I hated them, perhaps even more in some ways. But with them it was lots of little things that annoyed me. That and never actually meeting my agent.
We went to a broker after moving to PA. We've already switched once when rates went up suddenly, rapidly, and with no explanation. We keep our coverage the same and just find the best rate when it happens. No skin off our back and easy. The broker agent has helped when we've had problems with the actual insurer. He really doesn't want us going to State Farm or AllState, since he can't sell them. It works well for us.

I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot. I will smoke anything, though.0 -

Erie Insurance for home and auto... very good coverage and courteous claim service, and better rates.
