Choosing an insurance agent shouldn’t rely on just the bottom line cost. Any agent should be forthright in answering these questions:
- Who are their largest clients?
- If you have an accident, are you able to get your vehicle repaired at the shop of your choice?
- Are they full-time agents?
- What insurance companies do they work with?
- Who is covered by the car insurance policy?
- How much will you save each year by using a higher deductible?
- Did they already check your driving record and credit reports?
- Are you getting all the discounts the company offers?
Once you have received answers to your satisfaction for all questions you ask and an acceptable price quote, most likely you have located a car insurance agent that meets your needs to service your policy.
Do online insurance companies have better rates?
Professional insurance agents are a valuable resource, but Texas drivers can also buy from companies direct over the internet. A few companies like Allstate and State Farm who have local Tomball agents also give you the option to buy direct online. This is something to consider.
If you’re concerned about selecting your own policy coverages, this is expected but don’t let that bother you. Car insurance companies have customer service departments for answering any questions you have. Many online companies also provide live chat and online tools to make it easier to purchase.
Will buying online save you money? The answer is complex since there may be dozens of rate factors that influence your rates. Many people think that buying car insurance online cuts out the agent as a middleman. For most companies selling online, however, advertising budgets are huge and that can cost more than having to pay agents.
In the end, you save
Insureds switch companies for any number of reasons including delays in responding to claim requests, being labeled a high risk driver, policy cancellation and high prices. No matter why you want to switch, choosing a new company is actually quite simple.
The cheapest auto insurance is definitely available online and with local Tomball insurance agents, and you should be comparing both to have the best rate selection. There are still a few companies who do not offer online price quotes and most of the time these small, regional companies sell through independent agents.
