Springfield Illinois Auto Insurance Quote

May 3rd, 2008

Reader’s Question:

I received a quote for auto insurance, Springfield Illinois for $210/yr. After a week I went in and signed the auto insurance policy. The next day I received a call from an auto insurance agent saying that the underwriters changed the snowmobile policy on the previous Monday, between the quote and signing. The new quote under the new policy came in at a bit higher than the first quote. Am I entitled to the first auto insurance quote price since it was performed before the change took place?

I would suggest that you should check with the Illinois insurance regulator, Office of the Commissioner of Insurance (OCI), to check what IL state insurance statutes have to say about your current situation.

Generally, when you are quoted an auto insurance rate Springfield Illinois, the auto insurance agent tells you how many days that specific rate is good for. If you came in within that time then you may have an issue with the insurance provider if they are stating it is their underwriting that changed rates and the rate change was not due to something they found out about you after issuing the auto insurance quote, such as your driving record was different then you stated in the application, etc.

The auto insurance agent in Springfield Illinois should be able to give you a satisfactory explanation for the increase in your premium. If you feel that your premium was intentionally quoted low in order to get your business, you should be able to file a formal complaint with the OCI.
