    The General is as good as any other company in that it will pay it's claims.  You may not get the most competitive rates and you definitely will not get the good service a local agent will provide.  Shop several companies.  Consider more than rates.  When you are in an accident is when you find out how good your coverage really is.  Unless you know what the coverages are and the ins and outs of insurance I highly suggest you find a local agent to help you.

    The General is actually a licensed insurance agency that is affiliated with American Family Insurance. Along with other major companies, such as State Farm, Progressive, USAA and Farmers, they offer car insurance to consumers. The companies that are writing the business have A- ratings from A.M. Best Co.

    The General has good rates as do many other companies. An experienced broker can shop all of the major carriers for you so you easily find the best offers. It's always best to focus on highly-rated companies in your area.

    If you have existing coverage, then, of course, do not cancel your policy until you have been approved for the new policy you applied for.
