rcieslak67 Report post Posted October 15, 2018 I have Safeco RV Insurance through the FMCA site and just received my renewal and unfortunately it went up almost $400.00. Did anyone else have a large increase? I did not have any claims ever and no tickets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

five Report post Posted October 16, 2018 Call Good Sam, they have folks who will find you the best rate. I did that last June and GS got me a rate, with the same coverage I had, with the same company I had...for $500 less. Go figure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tom Report post Posted October 17, 2018 I just got my renewal notice from Safeco, 31% increase. No claims, ever. Good Sam shopped it around and they could not find anything cheaper. I also did my own looking around with other insurance brokers, and so far it seems like Safeco is still the cheapest. Go figure.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermanmullins Report post Posted October 18, 2018 If you have Farm Bureau in your area give them a call. We get a very competitive rate from them on both the farm and the vehicles. Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted October 18, 2018 Herman, your right...same with State Farm on vehicles, Linda has her ranch with Farm Bureau & all vehicles with State Farm! I have SF for coach & Jeep, but USAA for house. Rates has a lot to do with where you live! I would hate to pay Flood/Windstorm after this year! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermanmullins Report post Posted October 18, 2018 ( I would hate to pay Flood/Windstorm after this year! ) True but I have a feeling all insurance will go up to cover their losses. It is ironic that when claims are low the rate don't go down but have a bad year like this past one the rates skyrocket. Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
richard5933 Report post Posted October 18, 2018 Our homeowner's policy is through a company that only writes policies in the Midwest. They don't have nearly as many of these catastrophic events so their rates are more reasonable. Unfortunately, they don't write RV policies. It seems that most of the companies that do write RV policies are national companies, and as there are more (and larger) of these catastrophic events rates will only go in one direction - up.

Indycrazed Report post Posted November 7, 2018 Yes, I had the same experience. Got Safeco last year because of price and they jacked up the rates at renewal time. The agent said they did that for all of Florida. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ispjs Report post Posted November 7, 2018 Our GS (National General) policy only went up about $70 for the annual renewal recently and we are SW Florida residents. Had one claim and that was a $3,700 windshield replacement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Their rates for our MH were excessive( near $2,000/.yr), so I stayed with Winnebago Ins.( AMCO Insurance Co)through Farm & City Insurance Services of Forest City IA. @$730/yr.
