Customer Reviews for Gfa

John

April 19, 2018

Do not get your car insurance through GFA, or more precisely, their affiliates. They got my billing address wrong when I got the policy and canceled it without a phone call. Admittedly, I gave them my junk email account that I hardly check. No call, nothing. I was driving around without insurance for almost 2 weeks. This is unbelievable and, in my opinion incredibly bad customer service. I'm amazed and astounded. No way am I going through them again for car insurance. No way.
