Take this test and find out!
You might hear that some of your friends or family were turned down for insurance - or that their premium suddenly went way up. Chances are, they either have a credit problem or some claims (like they got in an accident and had a claim for damages).

Insurance companies want to keep rates low so they try to insure people who won't have a lot of claims.

Did you know?
One of the biggest factors in whether your insurance will be cancelled or your premium will be raised (or whether you'll be able to get insurance at all) is your credit rating. People who have bad credit tend to have more claims.
