Today, a lot of consumers are searching for the cheapest price without even considering quality. We know that price definitely is an important factor; however, a good balance between the two should be considered. Most people think that when the quality of a auto loan insurance company is better, the price is higher. This is more of an assumption than a fact. Truth is that there are many quality insurers offering excellent, competitive rates while still being admitted carriers (where policyholders are protected by a state’s guarantee fund) which most likely will lead to the deserved protection in case of an accident.So, how does one determine quality?Well, the quality of a carrier can be determined a few ways. Most states have a Department of Insurance holding complaint records on file which can be publicly accessed.
These records are a great indication of quality because of course, an insurer with many complaints will indicate poor customer service. Find out if a carrier is admitted by your state. This can give you a feeling of security because admitted carriers have financial backing in case of bankruptcy. One can usually get a feel for customer service if they were to contact the service phone number and ask any kind of question. Notate the hold times and the assistance of the representative handling the call.
The internet is a useful tool, if you punch in a company’s name, you may find comments and feedback on their claims and services which can be useful to make a decision. Of course, price is a factor to consider as well. The best way of finding a competitive rate is to compare rates from various carriers. This will give you an idea of what rates are reasonable and will point out those who are higher than others.
