Higher is Lower
You can reduce the price of your insurance premium by raising your deductibles. But first, decide how much of a deductible you can afford to pay if you have a claim.

Age Before Beauty
Consider reducing or dropping collision and comprehensive coverage if you have an older car. No matter how bad the damage, your policy only pays for the car’s cash value. You may be throwing money away if you keep paying premiums on a car that costs more to repair than your policy will reimburse.

Keep It Clean
A good driving record can help keep your rates down. This means no accidents when you’re at fault and no moving violations. If your record is clean, insurers may charge you less.

Premium on Premium Cars
You may pay more if you buy a new car, a sports car, a luxury model or a car that’s easily damaged. Know how much you want to pay on insurance before you buy the car. Ask your agent for advice.

A Home/Auto Package Discount
If you combine your home and auto insurance coverage, you will enjoy additional discount on top of the regular discount – provided you meet our basic discount requirements.

Make Thieves Grieve
You may qualify for an additional discount if you make your car theft proof. Install a hood lock or alarm. Add an antitheft device that keeps your car from being “hot-wired” or one that will emit radio-tracking signal to assist in recovery if the car is stolen.

Making the Grade
High school and college students may receive a discount for good grades.

When You Have a Problem
Chances are that, sooner or later, you’ll have an accident. So be prepared. Keep paper, pen, and the phone numbers of your agent and insurance company in your glove compartment.

You need to know beforehand what your policy does and doesn’t cover. You also need to know your obligations and the company’s obligations under the policy. Ask your insurance agent to explain parts you find unclear.

Then, if you have a problem:

• Explain it to your agent clearly. Be specific about the action you want taken. Agree on a date when you’ll get a progress report.
• Have your policy and claim number (if relevant) handy, plus related documents.
• If you think a claim offer should be larger, ask your agent to get a written explanation of how the company calculated the offer.

 

1. Call an ambulance if anyone is hurt: Clear the area if you smell or see leaking gasoline; then call the fire department.
2. Call the police: You will need a police report for your claim.
3. Admit nothing: Say nothing about who is at fault. Stray comments can work against you in court or the claims process.
4. Don’t move your car: Unless it causes a hazard. You can better prove your claim if police can note the exact position of the cars when they crashed.
5. Get personal data: Note the license plate, year, and make of all cars involved; other drivers’ names, license numbers, addresses, phone numbers, insurance agents, company and policy numbers, and names and addresses of witnesses.
6. Take photos: If you have a camera handy, be sure to take pictures of the damage of the vehicles, license plates, and the surrounding area where the accident took place including street signs or landmarks.
7. Write down all details: While your memory is fresh note how the accident happened.
8. Report your claim: Report all the details to Beneficial Adjusting Co. (claims office) immediately or come in to fill out all the necessary forms to start processing of your claim.
