If you can afford to do so, it is cheaper to pay your insurance premiums all at once rather than by making monthly payments. Most insurance companies will charge interest and other fees on top of your monthly payments, or may offer a discount for paying in a single lump sum.
Get lower insurance rates by paying for your insurance annually or twice a year instead of monthly. Most insurance providers give a good discount for paying up-front. Additionally, many insurance providers charge a monthly fee of $2-$3 in addition to higher rates for monthly payment, so your savings can really add up when you pay in advance.
To make sure your insurance claim gets processed quickly and correctly, you should make note of who your adjuster is at the company. Many companies will hire an independent adjuster to make the visit to determine how accurate the damages reported are, but the adjuster who actually works for your company, is the one who makes the final determination of your case.
Insurance is like any profession: it uses a lot of specialized words (indemnification, liability, etc.) So if http://agrowbot.etvamerica.com/forum/member.php?action=profile&uid=272665 don't understand something about a policy you're about to buy, STOP. Ask the insurance professional you're talking with to back up and explain in terms that you can understand. If you still don't get it, make them explain it again. Nothing is worse than signing on for a policy that either costs too much or doesn't cover enough, because you didn't feel comfortable asking questions about it beforehand.

See if paying annual premiums may work better than monthly. A lot of insurance companies charge extra fees for making monthly payments as opposed to annual. If you can afford the larger expenditure of paying all at once, it will save you some money in the long run and save you from having to make the payment every month.
Improve your credit score before shopping for insurance. Many companies will charge a higher premium if you have bad credit. Bad credit is considered a risk and insurance premiums are all about managing risk. Improving your credit can end up saving you hundreds of dollars a year on your premiums.
If you have not filed an insurance claim for years, check with your agent to see if you could be eligible for a discount. After a few years without filing a claim, an insurance company wants to keep you around. Use the advantage you have to negotiate for a better rate.
