Other Info About Car Insurance
I'm writing to see if anyone could help me to find the right auto insurance that i can afford. I'm a single mom with a 8 year old son who has been riding the bus for years. My girlfriend actually gave me a car wouldn't except a penny cause she to is a single mom and know about the troubles and struggles we go through. The car has some problems but thats not my first concern cause they can be fixed with time. I haven't had a car for years, i just couldn't afford one so i've used the bus for years. So, i've called alot of places for quotes and i'm high risk cause i haven't had vechile in along time (which i can't understand how that matters) and they want close to a thousand dollars for 6 months that is outragoue price for me. I got a better quote at geico and then they sent me a letter saying they looked into my credit history and couldn't give me any further assistance. So, my question is there anyone that knows where i can get insurance for a more reasonable price? It was all that for just liablity only that's it. I would like to thank you in advance for your help thanks

As much as i hate to say this try safeauto they give you only the minimum coverage your state will allow but they are also very inexpensive because of it. i am sure everyone has seen the commercials but if you haven't the # is 1800safeauto

Hi D.,
Try Nationwide Insurance. I have been with them for 14 years and in the beginning they weren't all that high. Recently, my son got his driver's license and my insurance only went up $30 more dollars a month, he is only 17. Also, there was an accident that cost $6000 to fix my car. They paid for all of the damages to be fixed and so far my insurance hasn't gone up due to that. The accident happened 3 months ago. I have looked around out of curiosity and nobody can match the insurance that I have with Nationwide. I pay $110 a month for full coverage on my car and for my son. Not bad at all! Let me know what happens!

Hi D.!
I read your request to a girl in my office who used to work at car dealerships. She said you should give a couple of car dealerships in your area a call. See if you can talk to a used car salesman, they should be able to put you in touch with some smaller insurance companies who would be more willing to help you. They might require a deposit, but you shouldn't have to pay the full 6 months up front, you'll just need to make sure you make your payments to them on time. Good luck & I hope this helped!

Hi D.,
You didn't say whether or not you are in Jersey but I am guessing you are. I found an insurance company that is cheaper than Geico and has 12 month policies. Their name is NJCure, phone number 1-800-535-CURE or www.njcure.com.
I haven't switched yet but am planning to when my current policy with Geico is up in April.
Hope this helps you.

Hi D.: Have you contacted Safe Auto? There telephone number is 1 800- Safe Auto. They have a history of insuring driver who have a difficult time obtaining insurance. And they seem to be reasonable. I believe that they will bill you monthly. You can use them until you have established a better insurance history.
