Hey everyone, I’m so upset right now.
I crashed into a pole that came out of nowhere last week, and now they’re telling me they won’t cover it (I only have liability insurance, which they didn’t mention when I bought the policy) and my premium is going up by around $2000.
This is ridiculous, and I’m going to sue GEICO, Warren Buffett, my useless adjuster, and Todd Combs for the terrible service I’ve received.
Take care.
Typical Tesla owner behavior. 
Thanks for giving me a good laugh!

They told me I should have ‘read my policy properly.’
Who even does that? Who checks their mail or email these days??
@Luca
No kidding, I had a guy mad that his policy canceled for non-payment and he was upset we didn’t tell him.
Me: ‘We send out pink envelope notices and give quite a few exceptions.’
Customer: ‘I don’t check my mail.’
Me: ‘We also emailed you on these dates.’
Customer: ‘I gave you my spam email address.’
Okay…
Me: ‘Well, we have sent 3 texts about your policy cancellation as well.’
Customer: ‘I gave you guys a fake number so I wouldn’t get spammed with calls.’
My customer interactions and surveys were always top-notch, so I took a calculated risk and asked if he wanted us to send the notice via carrier pigeon… the look on my supervisor’s face was priceless and the monitoring team didn’t catch the call lol.
@Zev
That stuff is so annoying.
‘You should have called me!’
Oh, I’m sorry sir, are you not a responsible adult?

Because Geico has time to call millions of customers to tell THEM they need to make a payment… No.
@Zev
Laughing my ass off, what the heck.
I also had to convince a 35-year-old man that there are in fact 365 days in a standard year, not 364. He thought 365 was leap years only.
‘No sir, leap years are 366…’
‘That’s not what I was taught.’
‘Well, you can google it?’
A minute of silence later he comes back and pays his $3 of owed premium.
@Zev
Callers are not smart. I had to tell a guy repeatedly that he didn’t have collision and he said ‘but you covered my deer loss!’
He had comprehensive. I said ‘no, you hit a pole’ (the inspiration for this joke post. Seriously, how are you all falling for this bait?) and he argued with me to explain the difference between a deer and a pole.
I said ‘Your hypotheticals are meaningless and we aren’t paying for your car.’
He hung up lol.
@Luca
I knew your post was a joke but honestly I wouldn’t put it past the customers.

To be honest, me neither. I figured ‘I live out of my Tesla’ would have tipped people off though lol
@Luca
Have you seen these housing prices?! Bought a Tesla outright so they didn’t have money for rent. Duh.
Let me transfer you to homeowners.

Well, I do live out of my car…
I decided that having a Tesla was better than having a roof over my head.

Haha.
These poles, man. They always jump out of nowhere.

I swear that pole had it out for me. It looked at me funny.
