So I remember, like I had to call people on my credit report and be like: look, and I didn't have a lot really, but I had a couple, and one of them- it was with geico or maybe- was progressive, one of those two. And insurance at that time was really hard for me to get, meaning I didn't want to pay for it. No, I'm just saying I'm just throwing out pros and cons.
