Wouldn’t it be great if your search for insurance companies was as easy as shaking a bag of chips and letting the best ones rise to the top? Well, it can be, relatively speaking.
When it’s all said and done, you want three things from your insurance company: good service, reliability, and affordability. So, if you find a way to isolate companies offering these things, you’ll narrow down your search in a big way.
Next comes the question, ‘How do I isolate the insurance companies with all of these traits?’ With our help, this won’t be a problem. Here are a few tips that will help you find the best insurance companies in South Africa.
Finding the best insurance companies: Some helpful tips
1. Decide what you need
First of all, you need to decide what you need in terms of insurance. Many companies will have really attractive rates but not offer the exact cover that you want. And, after all, it’s important that you’re happy with your cover so that you can get on and enjoy whatever it is that you’re insuring.
So, think carefully about the package that you would want in an ideal world. You might have to make a few concessions to that annoying thing called reality, but if you keep that goal in your head you’ll be looking in the right direction.
2. Do some research
When you have a clear idea of what you want from an insurance company, you’ll be able to start looking for companies that offer this type of service. Ask your family and friends about their insurance companies and do some online research.
Look for companies that are established and that you’ve heard of. This is the best way to know that your belongings will be in safe hands.
Pretty soon you’ll start to narrow down your search to a few ideal candidates.
3. Get and compare quotes
When you have a few companies on your radar, ask them for quotes. You don’t always want to go for the cheapest company, but it certainly doesn’t hurt to save a bit of money, so don’t always think that the most expensive is the best. Look for the company that gives you the cover needed at a rate that you can manage.
Once you have all your quotes, take a look at the big picture. Is the price of the premiums good for what you’re getting, and is the company well-established and trustworthy enough to put your mind at ease? If you can answer yes to these questions, you’re onto a winner!
All that’s left is to make the call
Through the above steps, you’ll find the insurance company that is the proverbial golden-brown, perfectly flavoured, wholly unbroken potato chip. Now, sink your teeth into that!
