How To Get A Car Insurance Quote Without Personal Information Being Provided

Identity theft is a large problem on the Internet, and this certainly restricts what a lot of people are willing to do online. When you're identity is stolen, you can suffer from enormous personal and financial problems associated with such a crime, and as such many people are simply not willing to even suffer the possibility of such a thing occurring. However, when it comes to getting car insurance, and you will often need to provide a certain amount of information in order to get an accurate quote. So how can you get a car insurance quote without personal information being provided?

Well, the first thing to say is that you may have to lower your expectations of getting a very accurate quote if you are not willing to provide certain pieces of personal information such as your date of birth and address. Without these specific bits of info being given, an insurance company will not be able to determine your exact situation, and as such the accuracy of your quote will be diluted.

However, if you are simply looking to get a quote that is more general and will offer you a good idea of what you are likely to pay, then certainly you can avoid offering up all of your exact information quite easily. For example, one thing you could do would be to start inputting all of the information about changing a few of the specific details.

Therefore instead of giving your actual address, you might consider simply altering the house number that you have, or talking about an address which is just a couple of streets away. Also, with your date of birth, you could simply change the month or the day in order to make sure that your exact information is not being given. All three these little snippets of info should not have a drastic effect on the accuracy of the quote, but you must remember that if you are looking to actually purchase your quote online, the exact info will have to be given.

Another trick might be to simply talk to people in your area about how much they pay. If you know someone who lives near to you who is in a similar situation to yourself, then you can get a rough idea of what you may have to pay by asking them what they pay.

Last of all, why not simply consider getting your quote over the phone instead? While you may not be completely comfortable giving your info online, when you call a company up directly, you can feel a hundred percent sure that your info will be safe.
