>dad buys an old Jaguar XJS to work on>gets the roadside assistance option on his car insurance, which is an extra charge>fixing it up for the last few months>broke down once on the road and used the roadside assistance and had it towed>also had it towed one time from his home to a shop>his insurance renewal comes up>$150 increase >huh?>calls to complain >turns out using the roadside insurance counts as a claim and goes on your permanent insurance record and impacts your ratesholy shit why is everything a scam? you pay extra for roadside assistance and then have to pay higher insurance rates for using it. if you're going to get roadside assistance use a third party like AAA which doesn't go on your insurance record or just pay out of pocket
>>29050390Until jews and shabos goys along with their golems are expelled there wont be anything nice in this world
>>29050390>(((insurance))))lmao wtf were you expecting?>"here's your free money sir!"
>>29050390AAA is also a bunch of Jews. One time I had a truck break down and it had a flatbed on it. They said they would not touch it as that is not covered. Immediately cancelled it on the spot.
>>29051695They would probably tow OPs dad jaaag thoughever
>>29051697Probably, but it’s just an example of how they are a bunch of fuckers too
>>29051706Do you know why they wouldn't tow it? Is there some clause about work vehicles or something?
>>29051710Can’t remember, I don’t think I asked why. Just said cancel cause three of my trucks had flatbeds so it was pretty much useless. I’d understand somewhat if they were oversized beds? But they were the exact same size as a standard bed.
>>29050390I have used my Geico roadside A LOT and it's never increased my rate
>>29050390call them up again and tell them you're cancelling your policy for your new insurer and listen to them grovel and beg for you to stay, progressive did the same shit
>>29051825>had geico for ~10 years>never made a claim, never had an accident, never had a ticket>rates were good>added geico home insurance when I bought a house>they randomly doubled my home insurance rate after 2 years>called them up to say I'm switching because I'm going to save money by bundling auto+home insurance with another company>they couldn't budge on anything to try to keep me onI expected they'd put up more of a fight
>Buy optional coverage>Use optional coverage>"What do you mean I made a claim?"Is your entire family retarded?
>>29051710More than likely it was considered a commercial vehicle.Fuck AAA.Had them.many years ago and they sucked.>be on USAA insurance.>free tows are included.>adding new vehicle one day and just casually ask how.many free tows a year it is just to clarify for future reference>"well actually, there is no set limit. But repeated use may raise questions."Cool.>buy basket case truck for $200 sitting on 4 flat tires in a field.>call insurance.>add it to plan>tell owner ill be back in the morning.with a (free) tow truck>restoring truck.>dont feel like dropping transmission and transfer case to do clutch>free tow to mechanic.>already got engine running but no brakes so free tow from shop back to home.>get tired of working on it in driveway >free tow to buddy's garage Ive put like 200 miles on that truck and it hasnt moved under its own power yet.Zero inaurance rate changes.
>>29052062>had geico for ~10 years>they couldn't budge on anything to try to keep me onYou'd been with them too long so they were expecting a claim any time now and were getting out while the getting was good. It's a known thing with insurance companies.
>insurance spikes premium for already charged services>services that are often free for the insurance company>charges extra if you avoid extra because 'it shows a lack of interest'I'm tired boss
