Take advantage of discounts

Companies offering auto insurance don't list all their discounts very well, so here is a list some of the more common and the more hidden ways to save on car insurance. If you don't get every credit available, you are paying more than you should be.

  • Homeowners Pay Less - Owning a house in Weeping Water may earn you a small savings because owning a home requires personal responsibility.
  • Employee of Federal Government - Employees or retirees of the government can save as much as 8% with select insurance companies.
  • Braking Control Discount - Vehicles equipped with ABS or steering control are safer to drive and earn discounts up to 10%.
  • College Student - Any of your kids who live away from home and do not have a car may qualify for this discount.
  • Good Students Pay Less - This discount can get you a discount of up to 25%. The discount lasts until age 25.

Drivers should understand that many deductions do not apply to the entire cost. Most only apply to the cost of specific coverages such as liability, collision or medical payments. So despite the fact that it appears it's possible to get free car insurance, companies wouldn't make money that way.

Are car insurance companies telling the truth?

Consumers can't ignore all the ads for the lowest price auto insurance by State Farm, GEICO and Progressive. They all seem to make the same claim that you'll save big if you switch to their company.

But how can every company make the same claim?

All companies can use profiling for the driver that makes them money. An example of a desirable insured could be over the age of 50, is a homeowner, and has great credit. Any new insured who matches those parameters is entitled to the best price and most likely will save a lot of money.

Potential insureds who don't qualify for this ideal profile will have to pay more money which leads to business going elsewhere. Company advertisements say "people who switch" not "people who quote" save that much. That's why companies can advertise the savings. Because of the profiling, you need to get as many quotes as possible. It's just too difficult to predict the company that will give you the biggest savings.

And the best car insurance company is...

Budget-conscious car insurance can be found from both online companies and also from your neighborhood Weeping Water agents, and you should be comparing both to have the best chance of lowering rates. There are still a few companies who may not provide online price quotes and most of the time these smaller companies sell through independent agents.

Insureds switch companies for many reasons like an unsatisfactory settlement offer, extreme rates for teen drivers, policy cancellation or even not issuing a premium refund. No matter why you want to switch, finding the right car insurance provider is easier than you think.

As you prepare to switch companies, do not reduce coverage to reduce premium. In many cases, an accident victim reduced liability limits or collision coverage only to find out that the small savings ended up costing them much more. Your aim should be to buy enough coverage at an affordable rate.
