Imagine what life would be like in Bedrock U.S.A. with Fred, Wilma, Barney, and Betty. Just about everything ends with "saurous" and it is quite the norm to own a dinosaur-dog hybrid thing as a pet. Limestone and animal skins are all the rage, and having your car's brakes checked out would require a podiatrist instead of a mechanic. Not to mention, getting an auto insurance quote in writing gives new meaning to being set in stone.
Fast forward to this century where your feet get a break from being the brakes and can go back to modeling Reeboks, Uggs, and Minolo Blaniks. Windows, seats, sun roofs, and even steering wheels are all adjustable at the press of a button. And getting an auto insurance quote does not take a chisel and hammer. You can do this online, over the phone, or in person at the agent's office.
Looking Past The Cover
For some people, shopping for car insurance quotes can be a rather daunting task. This is partially due to the negative stereotypes insurance companies and salespeople have received in past years. They were seen as multi-million dollar sharks seeking to devour and hoard all of your money. Auto insurance was also viewed as unnecessary. What are the chances of being involved in an accident? There were few new customers who were interested in checking out car insurance quotes.
Luckily times have changed. Insurance companies are even more focused on being customer friendly than before. More and more in the auto insurance industry are offering good driver incentives, not only as a reward to their current customers but also to attract new drivers. Geico is just one of the companies that is striving to be there when they are most needed; if you are involved in an auto accident, you can expect someone to be there to assist you.
Progressive has been the front runner when it comes to innovative ideas and changes to how auto insurance is done; call or log into their web site for an auto insurance quote and you will also get the rates of up to five other leading insurance companies. The kicker? Progressive is not always the lowest. This is a whole new standard in customer service.
Before you makes any phone calls or online inquiries, make sure you have all the relevant information the agent will need to give you the most accurate auto insurance quote. What do you need?
- The names of everyone who will be on the policy (if more than just yourself)
- Birthdates and current ages of all those on the policy
- The driver's license numbers, including the state code where it was issued and the expiration date of all to be on the policy.
