Save big with these ten discounts

Car insurance companies don't always advertise all their discounts very clearly, so we break down both the well known and the more hidden car insurance savings. If you're not getting every credit possible, you are paying more than you should be.

  • Sign Online - Some insurance companies may give you up to $50 for buying a policy and signing up over the internet.
  • Multiple Vehicles - Insuring multiple vehicles with the same company could earn a price break for each car.
  • Discount for Life Insurance - Select insurance companies reward you with a discount if you purchase life insurance from them.
  • College Student - Children who attend school more than 100 miles from home and do not have access to a covered vehicle may qualify for this discount.
  • Senior Citizens - If you're over the age of 55, you may be able to get better car insurance rates.
  • Drive Less and Save - Fewer annual miles can earn lower rates on the low mileage vehicles.
  • Organization Discounts - Being a member of a qualifying organization could qualify you for a break on car insurance.
  • Federal Government Employee - Employees or retirees of the government can earn a discount up to 10% with select insurance companies.

Car insurance ads bend the truth

Consumers in Nebraska can't ignore all the ads that promise big savings by State Farm, GEICO and Progressive. They all seem to say the same thing that you'll save big after switching to their company.

How does each company claim to save you money?

Different companies are able to cherry pick for the driver that makes them money. For example, a desirable insured might be between the ages of 30 and 50, has no driving citations, and has a high credit rating. Any new insured who fits that profile will get very good rates and most likely will save when switching.

Potential insureds who fall outside these standards will have to pay more money which usually ends up with the customer not buying. The ads say "people who switch" not "people who quote" save that much. That's the way companies can state the savings. Because of the profiling, you should compare as many rates as you can. It's just too difficult to predict which car insurance company will have the lowest rates.

More detailed Nebraska car insurance information can be found at the Nebraska Department of Insurance website. Visitors are able to get help finding coverage, report car insurance fraud, view agent and company licensing information, and read enforcement actions against agents and companies.

A tidy conclusion

Budget-conscious car insurance can be purchased both online and also from your neighborhood Deshler agents, and you should compare price quotes from both to have the best chance of lowering rates. Some insurance companies may not provide online price quotes and most of the time these regional insurance providers sell through independent agents.

As you restructure your insurance plan, it's very important that you do not buy poor coverage just to save money. In many cases, someone sacrificed uninsured motorist or liability limits only to regret that they should have had better coverage. Your aim should be to find the BEST coverage at an affordable rate.
