Insurance companies are not really many where i am cos of the poverty level and rate. If you are not financially equipped you can't uphold your insurance policy for a very long time. I think while dealing with insurance companies we should always go for the policy that the company can provide and maintain effectively, if not, we may be dealing with the wrong company.

As an insurer, you need to make sure that you have actually read every clause in the terms and conditions. If you do not read properly nd if you miss some points, it can be very difficult while making claims for your coverage or getting a bonus. Read between the lines to make sure you understand everything.

Definitely, this is like the most that an insured should do. I doubt I can ever go into any kind of contract without reading the terms and conditions attached to it. How would one even know the incentive here in a policy without being convince with the terms and conditions. It good to take note of it

There are many formalities that are attached to insurance companies and if all these are not taken into consideration, one may end up falling into some scam insurance companies.

One needs to be convinced enough before going into insurance. Avoiding those mistakes can only occur when we've taking our time to learn about the insurance company and its policies to ascertain its credibility and compare it to others if it worth it or not.

For a beginner that is just about adopting an insurance policy. The insurer should ask himself / herself a vital question. It is important for the insurer to know the reason why he wants an insurance policy . If he discuss this with an insurance consultant, he will be introduced to the insurance policy that will perfectly suit his needs.

This is the whole essence of using an insurance broker whether as a beginner or an amateur in it. The broker albeit a genuine one will be in a better position to give one the best fit insurance policy even the information one will get will be from the stand point of a professional

That's the work of an agent or customer care service working for the insurance company we are looking up to secure insurance policy to guide us on what insurance premium policy we should go for. And we shouldn't forget to ask the consultant the benefits of the policy, and also if their is discounts for such policy.

Using insurance brokers as you have stated is very important for anyone that really wants to go into any insurance agreement especially if you are a newbie. It is always very important to disclose the necessary information to the insurance company in order to avoid mistakes and forfeiture of benefits.

Definitely it is right to always disclose the right and needed information to the insurance company or the brokers so that you can get the right information and know whether to engaged in in the policy or not.this is because going against any of the policy will bring about heavy penalty if not avoided

Well insurance has not been a very lucrative business so far, in my country probably because of the current situation of the state. For this reason one has to be careful in order not to be scammed because fraudsters do make use of this as an opportunity for them to carry out their evil act
