Compare Quotes Car Insurance

RateCity was one of the first Australian websites to give consumers the chance to compare quotes on car insurance online from several brands. If you’re looking to compare quotes on car insurance online, a comparison website like RateCity can be a good place to start. It can save you time and money.

Prior to the RateCity website, shopping around for the best car insurance deal was something of a trial. However, RateCity has come to the rescue with an online calculator that enables motorists to compare quotes on car insurance from a number of car insurance brands.

All you have to do is fill out a simple online form including standard details such as the make and model of the car, where it is garaged and the minimum age of those likely to drive it; submit the details and you’ll have several car insurance quotes provided.

Online insurance companies

You may have noticed that a new generation of online-only insurance companies have begun to emerge. These companies often offer much lower premiums than many people are used to. They are able to do this because they operate solely online and have lower overheads – as a consequence of not needing to maintain branches and large support staff.

Low premiums are great for careful drivers who never make a claim but be aware, some online-only insurers are only contactable by email and don’t retain a customer service telephone line for claims. Some customers may find making claims online frustrating, but as internet access and speeds keep improving, you’ll find this easier and easier.

Check out RateCity’s car insurance page when looking to compare quotes from some of Australia’s leading online insurers.
