I'm used to companies performing regular reviews and doing slight increases, but this is insane, especially at a time when everything is closed and nobody is driving. I can't fathom how they're justifying a hike like this. Accident risk has to be way down and nothing has changed on my end. I'm wondering if my company is just being greedy and/or they're out a ton of money because people aren't paying their bills and need to make up for it by raising rates for everyone else. Have you guys noticed this?!? less

(For those that do not shutter themselves permanently, that is.)~
