Geico Suspected Insurance Fraud

Geico’s perceived deceptive practices to gain an improper financial advantage in charging excessively high premiums, not justified by the risk or coverage provided, by reporting unmerited claims as “At Fault Accident,” claims.

Please review the experience that I had with Geico that incorrectly inflated my insurance premiums for 3 years and have left an incorrect blotch on my driving record.

 

I reported this claim to Geico

·       As RECORD ONLY on 11/10/2020 and

·       Uploaded photos of the damages Enterprise Rental Car was claiming that were already on the vehicle Geico rented for me when I picked it up at Enterprise on 10/16/2020 @ 4:45 PM.

·       At the time of pickup, during Covid, the representative stated they were paperless and didn’t have a damage ID card to provide to me regarding the pre-existing damages but insisted it was already in their records.

·       I took photos of the damage to the car prior to taking possession of it, including the mileage.

 

I explained to Geico my reason for reporting the claim was that they would be ware and not pay for the erroneous claimed pre-existing damages.  They assured me they would not pay for the pre-existing damages under my policy.

Geico notified me that they paid the fraudulent claim as a “not at fault loss” under my Collisions coverage.

 

I understand Geico paid $9.55 to Enterprise under this claim.

 

Apparently, the adjuster felt it was easier to pay $9.55 and get credit for closing a claim then disputing the pre-existing damages that may have taken a little extra effort and not allowed the claim to be closed the same day.

 

Apparently, insurance incentives and closing claim production requirements can have a negative effect on good faith claim handling.
