Car Insurance Experts Explain Why Credit Score Is Used As Rating Factor

PR Web

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) November 29, 2019

Carinsuranceplan.org has released a new blog post that explains why insurance companies use a person's credit score to determine car insurance costs.

For more info and free car insurance quotes online, visit https://carinsuranceplan.org/how-insurance-companies-use-credit-information-as-a-rating-factor/

Almost all car insurance companies use the credit score as a rating factor. The only states were insurance companies are prohibited to use credit information to determine policy rates, are California, Massachusetts, and Hawaii.

Insurance companies consider that a person's credit score will provide more info on how risky it is to provide coverage. Drivers with good or excellent credit score, pay significantly lower insurance rates, than those that have a low, or poor credit score

Independent studies have evaluated the impact of credit score over a driver's insurance rates.. These studies concluded that:

  • On average, drivers that have poor credit score can expect to pay twice as much for car insurance rates than drivers that have an excellent credit score.
  • Improving the credit score from poor to good, can save 32% on insurance premiums
  • Improving the credit score from good to excellent can save an additional 27% on the car insurance rate.

For more details, money-saving tips and free quotes, visit https://carinsuranceplan.org/
