Company Information Company History: The name goes back to GEICO’s first customers in 1936 who were government employees and Military personnel. Founder Leo Goodwin went into business determined that he could deliver automobile insurance at reduced prices by selecting prime customer groups and marketing directly to them. Goodwin succeeded in driving down operating costs and passed on the savings to policyholders up front as discounts. GEICO continues to find ways to manage its business costs in order to offer savings to customers today.

Comments "Had a car that was 6 months old when I was run off the road by another driver. Used their "recommended" repair shop which told me the car probably should not be fixed. The adjustor insisted they fix it anyway and I was without the car for 6 MONTHS, still paying payments and still paying for insurance. In the meantime, the adjustor and GEICO personnel were rude and unresponsive. Car came back with the frame WELDED together. After I hired an attorney, GEICO totaled the car but then took it out of state and sold it. Checked it on CARFAX and GEICO did not even report it as having been wrecked. Good luck if you ever have to use your insurance if you are insured by them." 2009-11-18 19:56:31 EST
