SAN FRANCISCO, CA - May
13, 2004 - Esurance, a direct-to-consumer personal auto insurance company, announced
that it has recently decreased rates and added discounts to its Missouri auto
insurance program. All Missouri drivers can benefit from the rate decrease,
while customers who own their own home or pay their auto insurance premium in
full will benefit from additional savings with the new discounts.
Gary Tolman, Esurance President
and CEO, stated, "Esurance is dedicated to helping customers save time
and money on auto insurance. With recent changes to our auto program, some customers
could save up to 25% on their auto insurance premium."
Tolman continued, "Whenever
any insurance company changes rates in a given state, it's a great time for
drivers to shop around for the best coverage at the lowest price. With fast
quotes and instant rate comparisons available on our Web site at www.esurance.com,
we make it very easy for people to shop for auto insurance."
In addition to rate comparisons,
Esurance provides additional resources to help consumers get informed about
the all-too-often complicated topic of auto insurance. Esurance's interactive
planning tool, the Coverage Counselor, is consistently lauded in usability awards.
Shoppers who would like a personalized report of auto insurance recommendations
should try the Esurance Coverage Counselor.
Tolman explained, "Through our Web site, we try to provide all the resources
consumers need to comparison shop and get informed at their own pace."
Missouri polices are underwritten
by Esurance Insurance Company, rated A (Excellent) by A. M. Best.
