How to Find a Cheap Car Insurance Company

December 28th, 2009

Owning and running a car can be very expensive, even if you have a cheap car. There are so many things that a driver needs to know about and pay for each year and car insurance is one of them. Without having the correct insurance for a vehicle a driver is breaking the law, so if you own and drive a car you need to have it insured. Car insurance provides a means of payment for repairs / replacement should the car be involved in an accident, get broken into or damaged in another way.

If you are looking for a cheap car insurance company the best place to look is online. All good insurers will have their own website through which a driver can take a look at quotes and purchase their auto insurance. However searching through these websites one by one to find a good car insurance company that offers low cost insurance takes a long time.

To cut down on the time you spend searching for a good online car insurance company you should take a look at a comparison site online. These are websites that have the details of hundreds of car insurance companies, Australia based or worldwide registered with them. These insurance companies are contacted via the comparison site for a quote each time an individual uses it. To use a comparison site to find cheap car insurance companies you have to complete an online form to begin the comparison. On this you have to give details about yourself, your car and the level of cover that you are looking for. You only have to fill this out once to get hundreds of quotes from insurers.

Then when you have done this you can then start the comparison. The website will go through all the car insurance companies they have on their records and start to generate quotes from them. These quotes can be for comprehensive car insurance to third party insurance and third party fire & theft, just make sure that you have advised the comparison site the level you are looking for and they will do the rest for you.

The cheapest quote from a car insurance company will be at the top of the list that is created by the comparison site. The last quote will be from the car insurance company that charges the most for their insurance. Obviously, as you are looking for a low cost car insurance company you will be looking towards the top of the list. You will also notice other aspects of the quote such as whether or not a courtesy car is included in the policy, should you not be able to use your car.

When you have settled on a car insurance company that has provided a good quote you can visit their website directly and purchase your car insurance. It really is that easy to purchase your low cost car insurance. Millions of people continue to use this way to find a car insurance company that will meet their needs and provide a cheap quote and it is clear to see why.

Disability Insurance Urgently Needed For Most Families

August 28th, 2009

North Hollywood, CA ( Prfriend ) August 27, 2009 — A young worker is more likely to become temporarily disabled than to die prematurely according to one study. However, most people don’t have disability insurance to protect their income from this very real risk.

Disability insurance can supplement a job supplied disability insurance policy. This makes it possible for you to gain a higher percentage of income back while disabled. No disability insurance policy will recover 100 percent of your income, but having multiple disability insurance policies can allow one to recover as much as 70 percent of their income while disabled.

Battle of the sexes boosts Kwik Fit Insurance sales

July 3rd, 2009

July 2009 – Kwik Fit Insurance (KFI) played host to a battle of the sexes on Monday as they undertook their second major sales day of 2009.

The day, which saw the firm negotiate discounts for its customers, was a huge success as KFI enjoyed some of it’s strongest sales figures since it began trading in 1995.

Numbers of car insurance policies rocketed with almost 1300 new policies sold, resulting in the intermediary’s fifth strongest sales day for car insurance on record. In addition to strong car insurance figures, KFI also benefited from a surge in home insurance policy sales as the company continues to make a concerted effort to build it’s presence in the home insurance market. The sales day proved to be the second strongest day for home insurance policy sales on record.

In order to install some competitive spirit into the business on the day, staff were pitched into a battle of the sexes as boys competed against girls in a series of physical and mental activities. In addition, the challenge was set to see who would take in the most sales on the day and it was the boys who eventually triumphed after the twelve hour contest.

Alan Brown, Director of Operations at Kwik Fit Insurance, was delighted with the success of the day: “The success of our sales day does not happen by chance. There is an enormous amount of work that goes into ensuring our customers receive the full benefit of these events, from the discounts negotiated by our Insurer Development team, through the marketing and promotion of the day and onto the dedication and hard work of everyone within our sales team.”

As well as car and home insurance, Kwik Fit Insurance provides an extensive range of business insurance products aimed at small to medium sized enterprises, breakdown cover, motorcycle and van insurance, as well as travel and pet insurance.

From Torremolinos to Torquay – don’t scrimp on travel insurance

June 11th, 2009

June 2009 – Cash-conscious Brits planning to spend their summer break in the UK this year are being urged to take out adequate travel insurance by Kwik Fit Insurance.

The leading insurance intermediary is warning that travel insurance is often the first thing to go when people are trying to cut costs. But insurance for holidaying at home is just as important as taking out a policy when you go abroad.

Kwik Fit Insurance managing director Brendan Devine, said: “Most people take out holiday insurance if they’re going to Torremolinos but they tend not to think about it if they are heading off for a week in Torquay. It’s important to remember that it’s just as easy to lose money or luggage in the West Country or the Highlands of Scotland as it in when going abroad.”

Kwik Fit Insurance surveyed thousands of people across the UK as part of its summer home insurance survey to find out how belt-tightening is affecting their spending habits.

- Almost 1 in 5 people admitted they had been on holiday without taking out travel insurance.

- Fifty percent of those questioned said they would still take a holiday this summer despite the economic downturn.

- However, 83 percent, 8 out of 10, said they would not go in to debt to fund a holiday.

Brendan Devine added: “The annual summer holiday is a major expense and people are thinking twice about paying for it on a credit card or overdraft given the current economic climate. Travel insurance really doesn’t add much to the cost of your holiday – not only does it give peace of mind, it also ensures that you don’t end up with additional expense when you get home if something goes wrong.”

Checking your car insurance is up-to-date is also a must if you are travelling long distances in the UK this summer.

Car Type Influences Auto Insurance Rates

January 23rd, 2009

North Hollywood, CA ( Prfriend ) January 22, 2009 — Auto insurance companies may charge individuals more for a car that is likely to be stolen. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety released the latest numbers on not the most stolen vehicles, but the highest number of theft claims submitted to auto insurance (http://www.InsuranceBureau.com) companies.

The Cadillac Escalade ESV topped the list in stolen vehicles with the Regular Cadillac Escalade landing at number three. The top ten also included cars made by Honda, Hummer, Dodge and Ford. Auto insurance (http://www.InsuranceBureau.com) policyholders should be aware that if their car is on the list, they should take extra precautions to ensure the safety of their vehicle. Keeping the vehicle locked and inside of a garage is important. If you are parking outside, park in a well-lit area. “A vehicle tracking device, like the Lojack, may be able to garner an auto insurance customer a small discount,” says CEO of InsuranceBureau.com (http://www.InsuranceBureau.com), Eric Oster.

Insurance Checklist For 2009

January 21st, 2009

North Hollywood, CA ( Prfriend ) January 21, 2008 — 2insure4less.com has been helping consumers save money on insurance since 2004. As part of a continuing dedication to educating consumers on insurance issues, 2insure4less.com recommends all individuals assess their insurance needs and coverage for the New Year. “Having too little coverage can set one up for financial disaster,” explains Eric Oster, CEO of 2insure4less.com. “However, an insurance shopper can save money by getting just the right amount of coverage, not too low, or too high,” he explains.

1. Get current (http://www.2insure4less.com) insurance quotes and compare With foreclosures and unemployment rates rising, it is important to conserve money whenever possible. Instead of cutting out insurance, use a free insurance quote comparison website like 2insure4less.com to compare quotes on insurance. Even if you already have existing coverage, it is good to check on current insurance quotes as rates can change without a consumer being aware of it.

2. Assess your (http://www.2insure4less.com) home insurance or renters insurance needs Former home owners who are now renting can consider getting a renters insurance policy, which is a form of home insurance. Renters insurance policies can cover the contents of an entire home for as little as $15 a month in some cases. Renters insurance also provides a measure of liability protection in addition to fire and theft insurance coverage. Renters insurance covers belongings, the landlord or owner of the rental property has insurance to cover the structure of the building, but this does not extend to personal home contents.

3. Adjust your (http://www.2insure4less.com) auto insurance to reflect your current circumstances If a consumer’s driving habits have changed and they now drive much less, a pay by the mile type of auto insurance could save a considerable amount of money. Consumers with very old cars may consider dropping collision coverage if the blue book value of their vehicle is very low, but this should be discussed with an insurance broker. Unfortunately, uninsured motorists are increasing as people drop auto insurance due to financial struggles from a weak economy. Propping up your existing uninsured motorist coverage may be a good idea as well. Individuals may choose to offset the costs by increasing the deductible on their auto insurance and keeping the deductible amount in a liquid savings account for emergency access.
