Low Rate Car Insurance
By: Greg Haehl
Everyone likes to save money! That fact is not a secret to anyone. When trying
to save money on car insurance, a question that should be considered is, “What
will be the cost to me for “saving” money?” This question is meant to help
people realize that there is a difference between “price” and “cost”. While
Company “A” may offer slightly lower or even much lower premiums than Company
“B”, Company “B” may offer some services that you prefer, i.e. a local agent, 24
hour service, online service etc. These services may be worth the extra price to
some people, and not for others. Thus, it is shown that services received may
out-weigh the price paid.
Another factor to take into consideration is the quality of service you receive
from an insurance company. While all auto insurance companies want you to
believe that they are as good, or even better than the next company; that is
simply not true. There are drastic differences in overall service, claim
handling, and personality of individual companies. One company may offer
exceptional claim’s service, but perhaps it is very difficult to actually get in
touch with the company’s claim’s department; while another company may have
terrible claim’s service, but their claim department is easy to reach.
One must ask themselves, “Is it worth paying lower premiums to receive a lower
quality of service, or am I willing to pay a bit more to ensure that my service
is exceptional?” Don’t misunderstand. Just because a company offers lower
premiums, does not necessarily mean that company’s level of service will be
lacking. Great service can come at any price.
The most important item to remember while searching for lower premiums is to do
your homework. Talk to your family, friends, and co-workers. Ask them where they
are insured, and if they are pleased with their insurance company. Remember, not
all insurance companies are created equally, for instance, a company that runs
completely over the phone or internet will have different costs than a company
that employs fulltime agents. That is because the cost of doing business is
different for each of those companies. This brings the question again, “What
services do I value in my insurance company? Do I want the package Company “A”
offers or that of Company “B”?”
Low rate car insurance is in the eye of the beholder. Simply put, different
services are worth different amounts to different people. So find the company
with the services you desire and let the games begin.
