Has yours changed in the past six months?

Credit score is excellent. Over 850

We are not participating in their driving monitoring program apparently. Will not be either.


Impossible. No such thing as a credit score above 850.

Here's why auto insurance is out of control. Some car dinged the side of our door by cutting through the rows of a parking lot like a moron. The damage was just a dent and some paint smear in one spot. $4000 for a body shop to repair it. Insane.

We are excellent drivers. We are being charged for not participating in their insurance driving monitoring program. That is a scam.


All insurance is a scam unfortunately.

Mine is and has been for as long as I’ve been checking it or needing it for a car loan.

Not true.

We just received a 50% loyalty discount for 5 years of constant coverage with same company & no claims. Additional discount for second car because it is driven less than 4,000 miles per year.

Just rechecked the numbers. It was actually slightly more than a 50% discount that we received from our auto insurance company after 5 full years with no claims.

Increases are due to rising costs of cars, car repairs due accidents caused by bad drivers, and carjackings and regular auto theft.

I am worried this will just lead to more uninsured drivers on the road driving illegally. So many out there at the momen. All three of the accidents with my cars in the last 15 years have been with uninsured drivers.
