Look, if you are a contractor and you run out and get a commercial policy by saying that you are doing remodels, and the insurance company finds out that you are actually doing roofing, they will cancel your policy. It's the same thing. This business was engaged in something that was specifically restricted for that particular policy, so it was canceled within the 60 day cancel period. It's not that GEICO is anti-gun, it is that GEICO, like EVERY other insurance company has specific categories of risk, and this company was operating outside the category of risk to which this policy was restricted.
Another example: If you insure your personal Toyota Camry (or Ford Fusion for 10mm-man) with a personal policy, and the insurance company learns that you are using your vehicle for business activities, they can cancel your policy within the first 60 days. Does this mean the company is anti-business? No, it means that you were paying a certain amount of money for a certain amount of risk (personal use) and you were trying to be covered for a different amount of risk (business use) for the same price. Just having a magnetic sign on the side of your personal vehicle that says, "I do taxes" is enough to classify your vehicle for business use over personal use. It is a specific business decision made to keep prices down, and has nothing to do with some insurance company chump who is afraid of guns.
Oh wow if only they had that sign outside the school at sandy hook!Quote:

They're not gonna cancel tens of thousands of auto policies just because the customer commutes to Smith&Wesson or BassPro for work, LOL!
Glad I do not have Geico. If I did have them I would get rid of them by dark today!
Because of some unsubstantiated bullshit you read on the internet? I use GEICO for my auto/motor policies. They treat me very well.Quote:

As for this Geico stuff, I'm not holding my breath, sounds like b.s. so far.
