Best Car Insurance Companies in Dudley

car insurance rates

is to

shop around

and compare quotes from multiple providers. Rates aren’t all there are to consider either—claims handling and customer service practices matter, too!

, and

are each popular insurers in Dudley. But the right insurer for you will depend on both personal preferences and details like your age and driving history. Here’s a look at how Dudley drivers rated some popular insurers on a scale of 0 to 5.

State Farm	4.2	3.3	4.7	4.3
Geico	4.1	3.7	3.7	4.2
Liberty Mutual	3.9	3.2	3.7	3.8

How'd we get these scores?
Jerry's experts conducted one of the largest car insurance surveys in the United States. We surveyed 15,000 policyholders, in all 50 states, over the span of 18 months. These policyholders hold insurance policies with 87 different insurance companies. We surveyed policyholders to gauge their satisfaction with their insurance carriers in: policy cost, customer service, buying and renewal experience, as well as claim experience. These scores were all reported by real customers of the insurance companies.

"Jerry is the new benchmark in app usefulness. Period. It is SO EASY and the results are SO GOOD, and they specifically point out that no one is going to start calling and emailing me all the time. I gave very little info, it pulled up all my existing insurance info, and showed me how to get the same insurance for less, lesser coverage for huge savings, or better coverage for about the same I currently pay. I am personally saving around $1,400/year with my new insurance, and the entire process (including follow ups to sign the docs from the insurance companies) took less than an hour. If you make over $1,400/hour, this may not be worth your time. Otherwise, get the app and use it now!"
