my insurance more than tripled!, WTF Options

[celicamike]

OK, so I get my 21st Century insurance bill yesterday, and my premium increased from $604 six months ago to $1,854 for the next six months. I had an accident eight months ago and I expected my rates to go up a little but come on! Other than that I have a clean record with no tickets or anything. Do you guys think this is at all reasonable? because IMO there is no justification for this much of an increase. I will be calling these ######## a little later today, hopefully I can get the price to come down. If not, then I think it will be time to find another insurance company.

At least I know I'm not the only one getting ripped. But you guys mostly have full coverage right? I'm getting uber screwed by mine. I'm at 154/mo under my parents policy for liability only. I send a check every month to my parents and they forward it on. I mean I have the bare minimum coverage that is allowed by state law. If something happens to my car I'm SOL. I just turned 22 on wednesday with a couple minor speeding tickets that I got when I was 16 and 17 and that's been it. The ONLY times there have been body damage on my car I was not even IN the damn thing when the incident occurred, ergo I was not at fault. I even checked around at various "bargain" website cheapo insurance companies and for my own policy I'd be over 230/mo for comparable coverage. God must hate me.
