Have You Considered Switching Car Inusrance Yet?

By Susan Tanner

Personally having seen multiple commercials for car insurance, I get a little annoyed that there are so many. In fact during a one hour television show I counted six advertisements. Honestly, I was annoyed that there were than many auto insurance ads in such a short amount of time

While watching these commercials, I got an idea. I was curious to find out if this could actually help me save money. Although skeptical, I decided it may be worth my time to look into this in a little more depth.

First, let me state that I live in a small community with a population of approx 2,500. Needless to say, local car insurance choices are few and far between. Frankly, my wife and I had our cars insured by the same people that our parents and grandparents did. After watching the advertisements, I was convinced to make a change!

I wrote down the phone numbers and websites. I was surprised to discover that I could get a quote online. I went through the process and was very surprised! First, it was a quick process. I believe it took less than 15 minutes to finish the application. Secondly, I was told that I would be eligible to save money!

Specifically I would be eligible to save $350 each year which equals to about $29.00 per month! Although some may not think $29 is much, I was excited to find that I could save this much and not have to give up anything..

After searching a little more, I found I would not have to give up any of my coverages a" they would be the exact same. So I realized that cheaper insurance did not mean less insurance. Needless to say, I was thrilled for a chance to save money.

My wife and I decided to change and see if we were happy with the decision! We signed up for a company that seemed right for us. The company had great customer service and I saw actual savings in my pocket! The customer service was just as high quality as the local guy. This left me completely satisfied with my decision to switch.

I am thankful that I saw the television show that night with all the annoying commercials. I am also thankful I researched it a little more. Most of all I am glad we are able to pocket an extra $29 a month! Because of this, we are able to put more into our savings account. We have also been able to enjoy a dinner or two out. It has been a great experience for us! - 15275
