Whether you're at fault or not, the number of claims you file can have an impact on your insurance rates. Bankrate states that drivers who file more claims pay higher rates. If your provider decides that you've filed too many claims, they can choose not to renew your policy. This is especially true if you file several claims in a short period of
time
. If you're at fault in an accident, you can expect your rates to go up after you file a claim.
However, if you're not at fault, your insurance company may decide not to raise your rates.
A paid insurance claim serves to indemnify a policyholder against financial loss. An individual or group pays premiums as consideration for the completion of an insurance contract between the insured party and an insurance carrier. The most common insurance claims involve costs for medical goods and services, physical damage, loss of life, liability for the ownership of dwellings (homeowners, landlords, and renters), and liability resulting from the operation of automobiles. For property and causality insurance policies, regardless of the scope of an accident or who was at fault, the number of insurance claims you file has a direct impact on the rate you pay to gain coverage (typically through installment payments called insurance premiums).
