Online companies can help you save
Auto insurance agents are important to many people, but Texas drivers can also buy direct from companies that only sell online. Some car insurance companies who sell through the agent channel also let you buy direct on their websites, so keep that in mind.
If you’re concerned about not having an insurance agent’s advice when shopping online, that should not be a issue. Auto insurance companies that allow you to purchase coverage provide toll-free numbers to answer your questions. Most companies also provide 24/7 live help and a car insurance FAQ section to help you make a buying decision.
Does coverage cost less online? Many people think so, but it’s hard to say for sure because of the number of factors that impact your final bill. Some people think that shopping online for auto insurance saves the commission normally paid to an agent. In many cases, getting their brand in front of customers is expensive so the lack of a commission may be a wash.
The best way to determine whether prices are lower online or from agents is to set aside time to compare rates from both. You can actually get different rates when getting a price from both an agent and online for the same auto insurance company.
Do the work, save more money
When shopping online for car insurance, you should never reduce needed coverages to save money. In many cases, an insured dropped physical damage coverage to discover at claim time that the small savings ended up costing them much more. The ultimate goal is to find the BEST coverage at a price you can afford, not the least amount of coverage.
Drivers leave their current company for a number of reasons such as unfair underwriting practices, policy cancellation, being labeled a high risk driver and even policy non-renewal. It doesn’t matter why you want to switch switching car insurance companies is less work than it seems.
