If you shop for insurance would u pay extra for better costumer service, or get the best rate instead?
Would u be happy with better service and pay extra or would u like to get the best rate, doesn't matter who the company is? I sell insurance and I want to know what u want.

I have found that great initial customer service equals lower pay outs. Progressive is Johnny on the spot with a check that is usually a lot lower than what you would get from one of those "we'll get around to adjusting it" places.

I pay extra to go through a private insurance agent. He is great! My water pipes just broke under my washing machine. I call into his office, he calls the insurance company and they take care of the rest. Definately worth the money.

I'm a claims adjuster. I pay more for customer service, and am more concerned about the rating of the company and the customer service than about the premium.

I've found that you get what you pay for. If I have a claim, I want to be able to have someone handle it. My daughter was concerned about the rates, she chose someone cheaper, and had an accident last year. She finally gave up trying to have her car fixed, and just traded it in. She lost about $3000 just because she did not feel comfortable going to a direct repair shop.

I would love to find a place that has both. If you're military go USAA. They have the awesome insurance with really good prices. When my car got hit in the parking lot of Winn Army Hospital, they took care of it right away even tried to give us a car to rent.

But if not, then look around for companies who have a reputation of good customer service. Price is good and all but service is what you should worry about when it comes to insurance. Progressive has nice prices, all state does too but if there was a company more like USAA for civilians I would give them a shot.

Wait a miniute here...do you honestly think that insurance companies are in business to pay claims?? Yes I would pay more for good customer service but finding that largely absent I have gone with the best premium I can find.... If you doubt that just take a look at what has happenend to the folks down in Mississippi and what they had to go through to get any money on their policies.

I suspect that people in the business will pay more for good customer service -- because they know that the real rubber hits the road when you make a claim. Most other people will be most concerned with rate; I was before I got into the business of writing about insurance and saw what a problem it could be to get a claim paid. Now, I'm MUCH more concerned myself with customer service than the rate I'm paying.

The cheapest rate in the world does you NO GOOD if your coverage is crappy and you can't get any service on it.

It's a balance, between coverage and service. Rate is the LAST thing I look at, but then, I'm in the business, so my priorities are different.

MOST consumers shop bottom line pricing - and don't even look at coverage or service.


ragtag61
I want the most coverage & service I can get for my dollar. I'm willing to pay more than the lowest price policy to ensure that I will be taken care of when a claim occurrs.

That is what the insurance is for ..... claims.


bundysmom
Neither...I want the best coverage available for my $$$. For example....I don't want to worry about whether my aftermarket rims are covered or not & I don't want to worry about endorsements for them either...just cover them already.
