Reply #110: Oh, the irony...just got off the phone with Geico

[Atman]

I went outside and my car was dead as a doornail. No juice at all. To top it off, when I tried to turn the key back to off, it wouldn't go. Now it's stuck in the ignition in the "on" position. Good thing the battery is already dead. Damned car has power everything, even mirror de-icers. This is why I hate power everything.

Anyway, it got worse...the hood wouldn't unlatch when I went to take the battery out! Suddenly, this silly Geico thread came to mind, and I thought "what the heck, might as well give it a try" and called and talked to a small British lizard. Oh, no, wait...it was a very nice woman with a heavy Southern accent. She put me on hold for a sec and came to inform me that they were sending out a repair truck, no out of pocket to me! She was extremely nice. And like I said in another post, my rate has gone DOWN the last three billings. I like Geico. Cavemen or not.
