Comment on car insurance
*My consumer experience*
I've had insurance with Allegiance, Geico, Traveler's, and now Erie.
Geico was expensive. I knew I was paying for their prime-time TV ads.
I paid something like $1200 per year.
Traveler's was cheaper. I assumed it was the cheapest in town.
I paid $920 per year.
Erie, I was stunned to learn, is extremely cheap for the same
coverage.
I pay $530 per year. Yes, per year.
I cannot explain the discrepancy, other than to say that I've
never seen a TV ad for Erie nor heard a radio ad. Also, my customer
experience with my local rep has not been great. I call the corporate
office whenever I have a question.
Before Geico, I had Allegiance, which I recall was at the time
quite cheap. I may have been near the Erie price. However their
insurance became unavailable.

Re: Comment on car insurance
I had Travelers but switched to Geico to save the 15% they advertise. Then
to Erie to save the 15% they advertise. Then I switched to All State to
save the 15% they advertise. I figure if I switch enough times, my
insurance will be free LOL

Think big, Mike! Don't stop there, keep whittling it down until THEY
pay YOU!<g>
If you're >50 it pays to compare the AARP's auto insurance through The
Hartford Insurance Company. I have full coverage on four cars, two of
which are used for business travel and got excellent coverage and
pricing. My old carrier was highly rated and AARP gave me better
coverage for about $900/yr less. Been with them four or five years now.
I've been fortunate and thus unable to tell you how they handle claims
but with it being The Hartford, I can't foresee any problems.

If I paid $900, less than I pay now, my insurance would be free and they
would indeed owe me money.. LOL
