8 Hidden Secrets To Cheap Car Insurance
Joseph Welusz
Below there is a list of ways to increase your chances to get cheap car insurance. Some of the techniques you will find very helpful while other might not fit your exact situation, but by using any of these ideas you will be able to save some money.
1. Get Rate Comparisons: This is one of the simplest ways to get lower cost insurance. Insurance companies offer different prices, so check as many companies as you can for quotes.
2. Pay For Your Policy In Full: This will usually lead to the cheapest policy for you. Many insurance companies add surcharges for paying monthly, bi-monthly or even quarterly. So if it is possible try to pay in one or two payments.
3. Use Electronic Funds Transfer: By using this option you can save up to 6 dollars per bill that's a savings of $72 per year if you chose a monthly billing cycle. It's easy and very secure, your payments will be automatically deducted from your saving or checking account.
4. Buy The Policy Early: There are insurance companies that you can get a discount from if you buy your policy a week before you need it to start.
5. Increase Your Credit Score: Some companies use an insurance credit scoring system. Although this differs from your actual credit score it is heavily weighted by your credit score. So, if you can increase your credit score that will save you money. You might be able to refuse a credit analysis, make sure you tell the insurance company you don't want to take part in the credit scoring. This is only advised if you know you credit is bad because they will give you a standardize rate which is less than average but better than the worst.
6. Take a Drivers Training Class: You will usually have to pay for the class but it gives you a discount for 3 years. When the discount expires you can retake the class for a discount for another three years. The cost of the class will usually be less than a single years discount.
7. Request A Higher Collision Deductible: You will take on more risk by doing this but can easily save one hundred dollars by going from a $500 to $1000 deductible. It's not recommended to increase your comprehensive deductible since it would be a very small savings.
8. Ask About Other Discounts: There are multiple discounts that you might not be receiving. A multiple car, multiple policy, good driver, good student, safety device and many more, so ask to make sure you are getting all the discounts available.
