Get The Discounts You Deserve

Posted: 7/22/2010

You could save big-and save a tree-if you choose paperless billing.

(NAPSI)-One in five drivers aren't taking advantage of all the car insurance discounts available to them, according to a survey by the Independent Insurance Agents and Brokers of America.

To make sure you're getting the savings you deserve, get in touch with your agent or insurance company and ask for a policy review. Some of the discounts you could be taking advantage of include:

Multivehicle discounts: If you have another car or a motorcycle, a boat or RV that you tool around in on the weekends, you could save by insuring all your vehicles with the same company.

Pay up front: Some insurance companies will give you a break if you pay in full instead of monthly.

Paperless savings: You could save big--and save a tree--if you choose paperless billing. In most states, Progressive offers discounts to customers who get electronic statements and sign their policy documents online.

Loyal customer: Sticking with the same company can have benefits. Loyal Progressive customers can take advantage of discounts as well as perks like accident forgiveness.

Student savings: If your teen is a good student, or away at school and not regularly driving your car, you could get a discount.
