Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I definitely needed this program, it is an insight that you wouldn't think that, you actually needed it. No one is a super experienced driver.

The course was very educational where everything that I'd learned, made it easy for me to answer the questions to the best of my knowledge.

It was very thorough. I learned behaviors about myself that could improve like eating while driving. And I learned I am a very defensive driver like speed limits, watching from all sides. Everyone s... See more

It was very boring and painful to get through but it is making me more aware of driving defensively.

No automatic report to the insurance company (GEICO). I called a couple of times and still did not have the issue resolved. I ended up calling GEICO my self to report the completion of the training course. I personally will not use this provider again and do not recommend it to anyone.

Hello,

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. The reporting process should not have required you to follow up with GEICO yourself, and we're sorry we fell short. Your feedback has been noted and will be used to improve our service.

In the meantime, we recommend presenting your GEICO certificate directly to your insurance provider to avoid any further delays.

If you'd like to discuss this further, please don't hesitate to contact us at supportspecialist@certus.com.

A greedy company with predatory practices. This company will upcharge you for every single thing at every opportunity. They charge you $10 if you don't want to wait a week for a DIGITAL CERTIFICATE that costs them $0. The nice thing about digital is that it's instant, right? Not if you're this company. They truly have some of the most obscenely unethical practices I've every seen. Avoid at all costs.

Beware

Beware! They try to upcharge you at every step. Supposedly (according to their website) my insurance company would be notified within 24 hours of my completion, but they have no record of my completion after five days. I will be getting a certificate in 14 DAYS BY MAIL (Really?) or I can pay $40 extra for express delivery. Meanwhile, my insurance payment is due in a week, so I will have to pay full price and go through the hassle of getting a credit once the course completion is verified. And I have spent significant time trying to contact them via email and chat (no tel. no!). I can get over the boring delivery of the course, but not the fact that I can't get a speedy verification to my insurance company. What a sham!
