Changing Auto Insurance CompaniesYes, Of Course you can. Just call the insurance company of your choice and ask for a quote. It is extremely common for people to shop new rates upon expiration of the old insurance policy. Many people overpay for their insurance simply due to not shopping around at renewal time.

In Fact, it is the most common time and is even recommended by most agents as the perfect time to shop around for a new rate is upon the expiration of the previous policy.

Most Insurance companies are fully aware that renewal time is the best time to pick up new insurance customers and may offer you a discount of 5 to 10 percent to transfer your business to their company.

New auto insuranceThere might be an internal "30-day rule" within certain companies, but you can get insurance with a new company. You may have to do a bit of footwork, and it might not be with a standard carrier, but it is possible.

A carrier with this "rule" is probably just wanting to verify what kind of customer you'd be, particularly in the area of premium payments (are you always on time? regularly late?). Insurance companies are, after all, businesses ... they want to know you'll be a good client.

Do some shopping around, though, and you'll find coverage. Once you've established coverage, however, remember to go back and do some more shopping, especially for better rates.

Why would your auto insurance rates double when you accidentally let your policy expire?

Probably as a penalty for letting the old policy expire. Typically, the companies with the lowest initial rates end up costing more due to penalties, rate hikes and possibly dropping you form the policy altogether.

Can you take out an insurance policy on your grandson with out his consent?

I can't think of a reason why not. If you want to pay someone to insure something (or someone) they should let you. I suppose it really depends on exactly what the insurance policy is (life insurance, auto insurance, some other general liability insurance). Check with the specific insurance company about the specific type of insurance for an exact answer.

What are your rights when it comes to an auto insurance claim?

Rights don't have a lot to do with it. An auto insurance policy is a legally binding contract. You have a right to obey the terms of the contract and so does the insurance company. If you have a covered claim, they will repair, replace, or pay the ACV of the vehicle at their choice. I could tell you more if you let me know what you want to know.


I let a friend drive my car and they had an accident whose insurance pays?

If your friend was at fault- then your insurance policy will pay first. Always remember the insurance follows the vehicle, NOT the driver. If the costs of the accident exceed your policy limits, your friend's policy will respond next.

Is there an auto insurance company in pa that will allow me to exclude my husband from my auto insurance policy?

I'm sure there are several auto insurance companies that will allow you to exclude your husband. You need to know what exactly this means. It means that if he drives one of the vehicles on your policy for any reason at all that there will be no coverage provided by your policy. In exchange for this exclusion you will not be charged anything based on his driving record. Remember that it makes no difference if you get back together for a weekend, if there is an emergency and he drives you to the hospital, if his car is torn up and you let him borrow it, there is no coverage until after the exclusion is lifted by the insurance company. You do not have the authority to lift it yourself, only the company can. If you still want to do this I recommend that you go see and independent insurance agent who represents many companies and let them search for the best rates and coverage of companies for what you want.

Is the current policy on my father's truck still good after he has died?

Yes, but only up to the point of the expiration date listed on the auto insurance policy. Also check the policy for underage driver coverage. Some older folk save on their insurance premiums by discluding younger people under age 25 as being insured when driving that particular vehicle. Contact the insurance company and let them know this. They should refund a prorated amount of the insurance premium to you. The insurance covers him as a driver of the truck, not the truck itself.
