I was a pedestrian struck by a Geico Policy holder, I filed a claim and was told How concerned they were, that they would pay any medical bills, and wanted to settle ASAP, I have incurred numerous bills, have yet to collect anything. I could not afford to go to the hospital for an MRI, and they set up payment arrangements up with University Hospital and still have not paid after 10 months.
Now my credit has been hurt and I am constantly forking out money for office visits, test, and medicine, only to find out that I will have to have a back operation to fix my back. Laurie in claims reassured me that they would settle ASAP, It has almost been a year and nothing. I have had to retain a lawyer to sue.
Geico did an investigation and ruled their insured was at fault and they said they would pay the claim. Liars. I live with back pain, sleeping problems, and struggle with minor task. The insured only has minimum coverage so its not like I am seeking a lot of money. The $25K in coverage will not even touch an operation not to mention all of the cost involved with this.
I have missed many days of work and the quality of life I once had, and they have yet to settle this. I will live with problems the rest of my life.
I was a struck pedestrian by their insured!
Geico and its claims office are Liars, and I hope you are not involved in a claim with them.
