Save on Insurance in 9 Easy Ways

August 8th, 2011

Nationwide shares the inside scoop about discounts.

You’ve left no stone unturned in your quest for savings. But have you thought about your auto or homeowners insurance as a place to look for hidden dollars?

Nationwide offers many discounts, but not everyone understands how to find these savings. Your agent can help you to determine your eligibility with a no-cost On Your Side® Review. Here are a few of the savings opportunities an appraisal may uncover:

  1. Insure both your auto and home with Nationwide. A policyholder who has auto insurance with Nationwide and then adds homeowners coverage may save up to 15 percent on the homeowners policy and 10 percent on the auto policy. That can really add up.
  2. Take a driving course. Don’t be afraid to tell your insurance company about the defensive driving class you took after that speeding ticket. Really! It may earn you a discount of up to 10 percent.
  3. Renovate your home. Upgrading your heating, plumbing and electrical systems, or your roof could offer opportunities for insurance savings.
  4. Consider life insurance. A life insurance policy or an annuity through Nationwide may help you to save up to five percent on your auto or homeowners policy.
  5. Take the SmartRideSM. Nationwide’s online learning center helps parents and teens to talk about smart driving practices. Even better, completing the SmartRideSM course may result in up to a five percent discount if you live in Ohio, West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland or Washington, D.C.
  6. Install a security system. Discounts of up to 10 percent may be available when you install a monitored alarm system in your home.
  7. Hit the books. It pays to pay attention in class. Nationwide rewards students who maintain a GPA of 3.0 or better with a Good Student Discount of up to 15 percent. Those who complete an accredited driver training course may also be eligible for discounts.
  8. Make membership count. Nationwide provides special affinity discounts of up to 10 percent to hundreds of fraternal and professional organizations.
  9. Keep your home safe. Believe it or not, simple things like solid exterior doors and secondary locks on sliding glass doors can save you money.

Because you’re a member of Cambridge Who’s Who®, you may be eligible for special discounts on Nationwide® auto insurance.

6 Must-Have Cell Phone Numbers

Brought to you by Nationwide Insurance®

These days, you can store practically all of your computer information on your cell phone – from your entire music collection to the latest dog-riding-a-skateboard video. But did you know you can also use your mobile device as a safety net in case of emergency? Take five minutes right now to tap these important numbers into your contact list so you’ll be prepared if assistance is needed.

I.C.E. This number, which stands for “in case of emergency,” should be your emergency contact – a parent, spouse, close friend or whomever you want notified if something happens to you. Many emergency responders and hospital personnel know to look for this number.

Home. Your home phone number. If someone finds your lost cell phone, he or she can call this number to let you know that the device is intact. Emergency personnel may also try it as an alternative if there is no answer at the I.C.E. number.

Police. Keeping this number stored in your phone will help you notify the local police station more rapidly in case you have an emergency or witness someone else who needs help.

State highway patrol. See a motorist stranded by the side of the road? Be a Good Samaritan and call the state highway patrol for assistance.

Insurance company. If you are in an accident, you should notify your insurance company right away and get roadside assistance or towing help if you need it. (Nationwide’s toll-free number for claims is 1-800-421-3535.)

Your motor club. Membership in an auto club can get you out of a jam. Store their 800 number in your cell phone in case you lock your keys inside the car or get a flat tire.

A word about 911 and cell phones. While GPS tracking technology continues to improve, many wireless phones still do not offer a way to determine a caller’s location. If you call 911 in an emergency, be sure to mention in detail your location, your phone number and what has happened.
