How to save in Insurance

Following ways you can save in insurance by reviewing your coverage from time to time, and following these suggestions:

• Read your policy. As with all legal contracts, it’s important that you read your policy so you know what’s covered and what isn’t. Pay attention to policy changes that come in the mail. If you have questions, ask. And make it a habit to review your policies every so often to be sure you understand them (and check whether anything has changed).
• Don’t duplicate coverage. Know which policies provide which benefits. If you have a AAA membership, for example, you don’t need towing coverage on your car insurance. And if your credit card doubles the warranties on the things you buy, don’t pay for extended warranties. I try to go over my policies once a year to remind myself of my coverage. (I’m a forgetful guy!) I recommend you do the same.
• Consolidate. Get all of your insurance from one provider. Insurance companies often give a discount if you have multiple policies with them. Plus, this saves you the hassle of having to pay more than one company.
• File fewer claims. Don’t nickel-and-dime your insurance company. If you file claims for every little thing, they’ll raise your rates. Insurance is meant to cover unexpected largelosses, not every ding your car gets from shopping carts

These tips help you save on most types of insurance. Still, not all insurance advice can be generalized; each type of insurance has its quirks
