Comment on Would you buy insurance from.......

2009-04-27T21:27:24Z

Question 1: Yes, I would shop around to find the lower rate.
Question 2: I might but it would depend on what they were offering and if they were going to meet all my needs.
Question 3:The main reason for switching would be one to save money but it would really depend on the type of customer care I was getting from my agent. If my agent was an excellent agent then I would see what my agent would be able to do for me before doing anything.
Question 4: I think I would prefer the Captive Agent because I would feel like the Independent agent might try and push me to do things I might not need or want.
Question 5: I am not sure which agent would be looking out for my best interest. I would like to say the captive but then, which goes against what I just said in the last question the Independent agent might be able to offer more. I say that because they are working with more then one company. SO, I guess it would depend on the person I am working with.

Heather, thank you for your comment. I am finding more and more people are getting put up with the pushy salesperson. When it comes to your insurance protection, having an agent that will actually listen to your needs is very important. After all insurance is there to protect your assets and future earnings, not your agents.

I have to agree with you. I can't stand salepeople. They are way to pushing and don't even listen to what you have to say. They don't even care about you either. They are very fake and agian PUSHY! So, I would much rather deal with someone who hears my feelings and thoughts on things and also is not pushy. I would like an adviser or a salesperson any day.
