My premium was $602 for 6 months. Just before the 6 month mark, they increased my rate to $975! Calculate the percentage. That’s over 50%!!! Granted they answered the phone fairly quickly w/o me having to wait on the phone for more than a couple minutes, they told me there was an overall California rate hike that affected everyone! Everyone? I’m not so sure.
After checking all the competitors, I unfortunately found esurance to still be cheaper. I’m still a member but I’m hating that their price increases were so dramatic and happened so quickly.
If you’re not in a hurry to get an insurance policy, look up a quote, wait a few days and let them get back to you with something cheaper. That’s what one of their employees recommended me to do.
