When I buy cheap van insurance, will I get a good service from the insurer?

Jason

Oklahoma City, OK

At a time when prices are soaring while many people are losing jobs, price is a very important consideration for many people looking to buy vehicle insurance policies. While there’s nothing wrong with buying insurance, you should do so without disregarding an insurer’s reputation. You cannot rush and buy from the first company that offers you van insurance. Find out something about the company.

If you ask former and current customers, that would be great. You will need to know about the company offering van insurance information related to services, claim procedures and reliability in providing the protection when you need it. Getting cheap insurance would certainly make you happy since it allows you to save on your resources. But when you need to use your insurance because of an accident the insurance agent can’t be found! Or you called the company to file for claims but you get transferred to one department after another.

When this happens, you’d certainly feel sorry why you bought a cheap insurance that comes with cheap service. The company’s reputation in these areas should be taken into consideration. If what people say about the insurer are generally positive, then, go for their offer. Otherwise, find another one.

I have a van I’m looking to insure once I get some vehicle insurance rates to compare here in Oklahoma City. Are there any eligibility for the coverage?

Matt

Oklahoma City OK

It would seem that you are intending to buy coverage for your van once you are able to get the most desirable vehicle insurance rates. As it is, there are some things you need to take note to avoid having your application rejected. The most important thing that you need to remember is that all of your drivers are within the prescribed driving minimum age and have their own licenses. If you have an underage among them, the insurance provider is not likely to approve your request.

Vehicle insurance rates are affected by the number of convictions, penalties or disqualifications of your drivers, so, it is important that your employees are responsible ones. Moreover, insurance providers sometimes refuse an application because the total number of convictions or violations exceed a particular number. Some insurers only allow for two convictions within the last five years. That’s pretty tough if your drivers are not careful. It may be difficult for you but there may be a need to remove or two drivers if you already need to renew your insurance coverage.

Since you already know these eligibility requirements, you can now proceed with comparing vehicle insurance rates by visiting different brokers offline or online. To get customized plans, try calling the companies and talk to their representatives so that you will be able to negotiate for better rates.

To get an idea of how much are you going to pay for your coverage, you can get them online using the quick calculators that are provided by brokers in Oklahoma City. Using these online calculators will only take up to 15 minutes of your time. If this is already long for you, try using those calculators provided by companies asking only minimal information.

Reader’s Question:

Hello there! What is Medicare? Could you please explain to me how it is supposed to work? I live in Oklahoma.

Helen

Tulsa, OK

Hi, Helen. How old are you now? If you’re almost 65 years old, it’s time for you to know more about Medicare and when you become eligible, enroll right away. Medicare is especially for people 65 years and older. It is a federal health insurance program for Americans. This government program has many parts, the first of which is hospital insurance. This is generally paid for by employees’ payroll taxes. There is likewise coverage for physicians and their services, which is called medical insurance. People pay a premium for this which is determined by how much money they make. Finally the purchase of prescription drugs may also be covered by Medicare provided that you go to participating pharmacies. Both brand-name and generic drugs are included here.

Since this is a government program, it provides assistance to those who cannot afford health care. If it is found that you are unable to support your own medical needs, you may be exempt from paying certain fees such as deductible and even premium. It goes without saying that you must be proven to have limited financial resources. If you already have health insurance coverage from, say, a private company or from a job-based plan there in Oklahoma, you may just keep that one or enroll at Medicare in addition to the health insurance policy that you already have.

Reader’s Question:

Can I buy my friend here in Oklahoma a life insurance policy for her?

Graham

Lawton, OK

Unfortunately you might not, unless maybe you are able to prove that you might suffer financial loss or difficulty in the event your friend there in Oklahoma suddenly passes away. In the life insurance industry this is known as “Insurable Interest”. The only parties that are allowed to purchase life insurance for someone else are spouses, family members or relatives, business partners or any individual that will suffer financially upon the death of the insured are the ones that have “Insurable Interest” and are allowed to purchase the said life insurance party for the person they wish to give coverage.

Insurable Interest actually stems on the idea that strangers may commit murder to get death benefits or death proceeds if they are allowed to insure just anyone they wish. That would be an unacceptable amount of risk for both the individual being insured as well as towards the business of the life insurance provider itself.

You might also ask who the policy owner is if a person with sufficient “Insurable Interest” is allowed to buy life insurance coverage for someone else. The policy owner would be the one who bought the insurance (and the one who will be paying it) but the insured would, obviously, be the one who is protected under the coverage. This is important to understand since there are life insurance providers who only allows the policy holder to take money out of a cash-value life insurance policy.

Reader’s Question:

Hi, I’m in Oklahoma, and I’ve never been in an accident before, but I want to know just what to do auto-insurance wise if ever it happens to me.

Dolly

Tulsa, OK

Well, hello, Dolly. Yes, I hope nobody ever figures in an accident. I’ve been in one here in Oklahoma, too, and it was nowhere near pleasant. But if ever it happens, what you need to do first, of course, is to check for any injuries. Some injuries would take hours or days before they appear. It is always best to go see a doctor just to be really sure. And then there’s the matter with the police. Report the accident immediately. Then call your auto insurance company and tell them about the accident.

Speak with the other driver if you figured in a collision accident, and exchange information with him or her: phone number, address and insurance information. This is especially important if the accident was caused by the other driver. You could also look for witnesses and ask for their contact information in case their account of the accident is needed.

So, to sum it up: When you figure in an accident check for any injuries, contact the police, exchange pertinent information with the other driver, contact auto insurance company and check if you can find any witness.

After reporting the accident to the auto insurance, they will then send an insurance adjuster. Be ready to provide what you know to the adjuster. Do not add anything or edit what happened because the adjuster will confirm your story with other sources, too, such as the witnesses’ account, the other driver’s story and the police report.

Reader’s Question:

I just want to ask why life insurance here in Oklahoma costs so much for smokers. Can anyone help me out with this?

Carl

Lawton, OK

Hi Carl. It is quite unfortunate that smokers life insurance tends to cost more than life insurance for non-smokers. I guess the best way to explain this is by letting you in on how insurance companies do their business.

You see, for insurance companies to earn money, they have to make sure that the number of insured clients they have that make a claim on their insurance policies are less than those that do not make a claim. If it was the other way around, then they will be shelling out more money than they have coming in.

For them to sell smokers life insurance, they have to balance out the risk that their insured will make a claim on their policy with their need to earn more money by getting more clients. Thus, the higher insurance premiums for smokers.

Still, there is hope for the smokers out there. There are certain companies that specialize in getting good insurance rates for smokers life insurance. Also, some smokers who only smoke occasionally can even be considered for non-smokers life insurance with other insurance companies. This will of course depend on the insurance companies policies. My suggestion is you find yourself a reliable agent in Lawton, Oklahoma who can assist you in finding the product that will best suit your insurance needs.
