Are car insurance companies telling the truth?

Consumers can't get away from ads for car insurance savings from the likes of Progressive, GEICO, Allstate and State Farm. They all seem to have a common claim about savings after switching your coverage to them.

How can each company make the same claim?

All the different companies have a preferred profile for the type of customer that is profitable for them. For instance, a desirable insured could be between 30 and 50, has no prior claims, and has great credit. Any new insured that hits that "sweet spot" is entitled to the best price and most likely will save when they switch companies.

Potential insureds who don't qualify for the requirements will have to pay more money and this can result in business going elsewhere. Company advertisements say "customers that switch" not "people who quote" save that much money. This is how companies can truthfully advertise the savings.

Because of the profiling, drivers must get a wide range of price quotes. It's just too difficult to predict which insurance companies will give you the biggest savings.

Best coverage at the best price

As you prepare to switch companies, it's not a good idea to reduce coverage to reduce premium. There are many occasions where consumers will sacrifice liability coverage limits only to discover later that the small savings ended up costing them much more. Your aim should be to buy enough coverage at a price you can afford.

Drivers change insurance companies for a number of reasons such as not issuing a premium refund, delays in paying claims, unfair underwriting practices or questionable increases in premium. No matter why you want to switch, choosing a new insurance company is actually quite simple.

Cheaper car insurance can be purchased from both online companies as well as from independent agents in Dragoon, so compare prices from both to have the best chance of lowering rates. There are still a few companies who don't offer the ability to get a quote online and most of the time these small, regional companies sell through independent agents.
