This is why it is so vital to stay connected with business partners and associates, especially when they are spread out all over the country or the world.

Most insurance companies I have ever dealt with have been a pain in the behind. You leave messages, they’re hard to reach, you talk to them and they are rude. My last insurance company charged me for an extra month after canceling my plan with them, so I complained and they said not to worry that they would reimburse me. When they finally sent the check, months after they said I would receive it, it was for less than half the price of what I paid. Irritating, yes, but even more irritating having to deal with them, so I let it go.

Our new insurance company we haven’t had any problems yet, but that could also be because we haven’t had any claims or anything out of the ordinary lately we’ve had to deal with. We’ve mainly done everything online which is nice, their premiums are about average, not too high, but not low enough either. We’ve been lucky though, our premiums haven’t gone up, due to the contract we signed, so hopefully the prices will go back down by the time that expires. There have been rumors that insurance premiums will be going down, due to the fact that gas prices have gone up, causing less people to be on the streets, hence less accidents. I hope thats true, we need some compensation somewhere, come on.

Well, I guess we’ll see what happens with this, until then if you’re currently looking for insurance, it really is so much nicer to do everything online. There is a site claiming unbeatable prices, sounds like they specialize in van insurance, but when my contracts out I’ll be checking it out, let me know what you think.
