Q: How is an insurance score different from a credit score? A: Insurance scores and credit scores are much more different than most people believe.

Ah come on you guys, that little lizard is sooooo cute and he smiles with such a "lizard" smile. Why so mean to Geico? Besides, the CEO's are shedding their skins right now and need time to heal.

Mmmmm......they'll help increase you're credit score but they don't need a SS# to do it. Interesting, very very interesting. Sounds to me like another scam of insurance credit scoreing to me. Wonder who the dumb @ss was that decided we all needed to pay premiums according to our credit rating, let m...

hipokets I'm afraid that Geico is not the best insurance company around when having to deal with a claim. Nor is this the first I've heard of them denying claims or turning the tables so to speak. Did they come out and say the accident was your fault? If so then it may go against you on your CLUE re...

Carlos, be careful "who" you go to work for. I read the other posts to this and have to agree, going captive will make it hard to place some business but if you haven't worked in this business before it's probably your better choice. Best bet, find an agency that writes (multiple) differen...

RE: Brooke/Levitt

You could try the following link http://www.iiaa.org. As I understand it they have a person in each of the offices around the county who can help an agent get started with E&O and companies to write for. The commission is a little lower but if you don't have a book of business these large compan...
