Unitrin Direct announces new options that can save preferred drivers hundreds of dollars on car insurance.

Chicago, Illinois. (PRWEB) Oct. 14, 2010.

Unitrin Direct uses an innovative business model that reduces overhead and passes savings on to customers while providing premier customer service. This week, the company announced that new Unitrin Direct customers residing in Michigan can save even more by taking advantage of several new savings opportunities. New discounts include:

 

   • Preferred Payer Discount™ – the more customers pay upfront, the more they save (with the greatest savings by those paying in full)
   • Free-A-Tree™ Discount – a five percent discount for drivers who get quotes and sign up online at www.unitrindirect.com and enroll in the Easy-Pay automatic payment service
   • Retro Loyalty Discount™ – Unitrin Direct rewards customers for their loyalty to their previous insurance carrier based on the length of their relationship
