Ludlow Auto Insurance For Less Than You're Paying Now

Are you intimidated by the wide range of auto insurance company choices in Ludlow? Many other consumers are too. You have so many choices that it can turn into a challenge to find the best price.

Are you getting all your discounts?

Companies offering auto insurance do not advertise all available discounts very well, so the following is a list of both well-publicized and also the lesser-known auto insurance savings.

  • Clubs and Organizations - Participating in a professional or civic organization could qualify you for a break when buying auto insurance.
  • Service Members Pay Less - Having a deployed family member can result in better rates.
  • More Vehicles More Savings - Buying coverage for multiple cars or trucks on one policy can get a discount on all vehicles.
  • Paperless Signup - A handful of insurance companies will discount your bill up to fifty bucks just for signing your application online.
  • Defensive Driving Course - Taking part in a course in driver safety could possibly earn you a 5% discount if you qualify.

It's important to note that most credits do not apply to all coverage premiums. Some only apply to specific coverage prices like physical damage coverage or medical payments. So when it seems like all those discounts means the company will pay you, you're out of luck.

How can Allstate, GEICO and Progressive save drivers who switch?

Allstate, GEICO and Progressive regularly use ads on television and other media. All the companies say the same thing that you can save if you move to their company. But how can every company make almost identical claims? It's all in the numbers.

All the different companies are able to cherry pick for the driver that earns them a profit. A good example of a profitable customer could possibly be over the age of 40, has no driving citations, and has great credit. A customer getting a price quote who fits that profile will qualify for the lowest rates and as a result will probably save a lot of money.

Consumers who are not a match for this ideal profile must pay higher rates which usually ends up with the driver buying from a lower-cost company. The ad wording is "customers who switch" not "everybody who quotes" save that much. That's the way insurance companies can advertise the savings. This illustrates why you should get a wide range of price quotes. It's impossible to know which auto insurance company will give you the biggest savings.

Do the work, save more money

Lower-priced auto insurance is possible online and also from your neighborhood Ludlow agents, and you need to comparison shop both to get a complete price analysis. There are still a few companies who may not provide you the ability to get quotes online and usually these small insurance companies provide coverage only through local independent agents.

Consumers who switch companies do it for a variety of reasons including questionable increases in premium, unfair underwriting practices, lack of trust in their agent and even an unsatisfactory settlement offer. Regardless of your reason for switching companies, finding a new auto insurance company is less work than it seems.

As you prepare to switch companies, do not buy lower coverage limits just to save a few bucks. In too many instances, someone sacrificed full coverage and found out when filing a claim that the small savings ended up costing them much more. Your focus should be to get the best coverage possible at the best price while not skimping on critical coverages.
