Answer 2

it depends on what company you're with and what kind of claim is being filed

some claims won't affect your rate only an at fault accident will result in a surcharge

just call your agent and ask them, that's what they are there for

Answer 4

depends on the type of claim and the amount of the claim. if it is a comp claim, the insurance company can not raise the rate unless you have more than the national average. a collision claim is different. the average increase is $5.00 per month per $1000.00 so if you have a $5000 claim, your insurance will go up $25 per month.

Answer 5

It depends on the type of claim and the insurance company, they are all different.  There should be no increase if it is a claim paid under the comprehensive coverage.  If it was paid under collision, sometimes the first claim is "free" (no surcharge) other times it can be 10-20% increase  for the first year, dropping by half the second year and maybe even less for the 3rd year(some companies drop the surcharge after 2 years)

Answer 6

If you've been with the company for that long and have never filed a claim they may not raise your premiums at all, but it depends on the company. If they do decide to raise your premiums it's a safe assumption it will be around 33% for the next 3-5 yrs.

Answer 7

50%
