Currently my vehicles are licensed and insured in Illinois where I own a home and used to primarily reside. I now have a Missouri license as well as a country home and an apartment in Saint Louis. My predicament is that my Illinois license (which my geico insurance uses) shows two tickets 1-5mph over) and it raised my rate ~33%. My Missouri license is clean.
Is it possible to update my license information in Geico's system to show a clean record (thus lowering my rates) but still show the vehicles residing at my home in IL (which is where they are)?
I have my attorney working on getting the tickets removed but it's a slow process that isn't guaranteed and I am adding a new car that isn't cheap even with a clean record so the cost difference is considerable.
The other option would be to call a new carrier and just give them my new MO license but I would want to keep my vehicles in IL for tax reasons and Saint Louis has higher rates (MO has personal property tax). Also, being a young single make I think it would be hard to find a carrier that won't hose me on rates given the cars.
Any advice on how I can make this work? Objectives are to keep cars in IL, get a rate with a clean record, which my Missouri license has.
