Product Review: InsureMe.com Insurance

About the company: Getting quotes on car insurance, medical insurance, home insurance and more has never been easier. With our free service, enter your information once and you are instantly matched with the most competitive companies in the business. You'll get back up to five quotes so you can compare and save. At InsureMe.com, we shop your insurance so you don't have to.

The big pitch: When you want a complete picture of the best health insurance, auto insurance, medical insurance and home insurance rates available to you, fill out our form now. You'll find the insurance you need at a great rate.

InsureMe is one of many websites devoted to the business of health insurance, life insurance, business insurance, car insurance and long term care coverage that tell you they'll get you a great rate, but in reality send your business to other providers.

We don't have any great problem with that, let's be clear. There are many websites out there that will do a fine job of helping you find the lowest rate possible, after taking your details and figuring out the specifics. The catch here is that, when we tried it, we were only given one option, and no quote. If we wanted an 'online quote', we were told to hit a button which took us elsewhere.

Now, let's be very up-front about this - InsureMe.com is not a scam . They do what they claim, and help you find better insurance than what you might have, but with all the information they ask for, we expected a little more from the result.

Perhaps it was just our case where the options were one - perhaps you'll get a whole page of options. But it wasn't like we were asking for something that is difficult to find a lot of options on... health insurance for a 35 year old in New Jersey. We would have expected at least a dozen options, with prices. And we got one.

So, in reality, if you're looking for something simple, where an insurer will call you with the relevant details later in the day and you don't have to do much thinking about it all, InsureMe.com is a good option. But if you're looking to shop around a little...

The Product Trends rating: 2.5 stars. In the end, we expected to have a list of options and prices, and all we really got was the name of an agent who will probably be calling us real soon. That's not a bad thing, per se, InsureMe.com is a good option, but there are other insurance services out there that we've got more out of.
