My M&S bill jumped quite a bit so I'm hunting. Stopped in at Guardian and it was about half but the place was a ghost town. Got bad feelings. All thoughts appreciated.

I believe Guardian provides a lot of policy (underwriting?) for Marshal & Sterling, which is where I get my insurance.

Best advice: Don't drive a nice car. That way you can save on insurance.

Have used Executive Insurance ever since we moved here 8 years ago. Easy to work with. Don't know how they are for claims as we've never had one. The insurance is by Lloyds of London.

When I used Guardian, they only offered low coverage, like $25,000 liability, and the VI loves law suits and big damage awards, so I switched to M&S for higher coverage.

I don't drive a nice car. Half step above an island car. All paid for and only need liability and property damage. Any idea on prices for an 06 Taurus V6?

Thanks again.

We used Executive for years until we discovered USAA.

We switched in December from Marshall & Sterling to First, but now they've bought First. After having a very good experience in dealing with John Harper, we'll definitely go back to M&S.

Isn't USAA just for military?

Well, yes, military and their extended family members. We're eligible through our grandparents' service.

I called around today and got quotes from M&S and Interocean Insurance. Both seemed pretty good prices, Interocean a little lower than M&S. Any opinions on Interocean?
I am shipping my car from stateside when I move in November.

See if The Hartford will give you cheap auto insurance quotes. We’ve had them for years and have had no reason to complain so far: they’ve kept our rates low, given us discounts, and handled our claims really well.

i have USAA. so much cheaper then MS and double the coverage.
my stepfather was ex military so i could get it through him. USAA has branched out so easier for people to get.
you should call.
i told my parents about it and they are saving over 500.00 a year now with USAA. its worth a call.

We were with First that was now purchased by M&S, so I'm expecting an increase in cost come renewal. I just got a quote from the new company Leeward and thier price matched my old First policy. Definiately a contender (www.leewardinsurance.vi).
