GEICO owns geicosucks.com domain!

As has been reported on this blog and in our newsletter, Legally Speaking, GEICO has recently adopted a hard line approach to claim settlement in auto-negligence claims. Recently Digg.com has reported that GEICO owns the domain, geicosucks.com.

In years past when various insurance companies have adopted unfair claim practices, web sites have sprung up describing the unfair claim practices of the particular company. See for example famersinsurancesucks.com

Obviously, GEICO wants to limit any bad publicity from their unfair claim practices by owning the domain geicosucks.com. We consider this to be a tacit admission that they know their claims practices are unfair!
