Not Much Assurance About The Insurance, Part 14
I work at a call center for an insurance company. Insurance rates are determined by many factors, including personal details like credit, location, prior claims, etc.
Customer: “I need a quote.”
Me: “No problem. I just need to get some basic information about you. Can I please have your name, address, and date of birth?”
Customer: “I don’t want to give you any personal information. Can you just tell me how much you charge for insurance in [State]?”
Me: “There are a lot of factors that go into insurance rates. I can’t give an accurate quote without some details about you, as well.”
Customer: “I don’t want to give you any personal information!”
Me: “That’s perfectly fine and understandable, but I can’t give you a quote if that’s the case.”
Customer: “Can’t you just give me a price? I’m in [State]; it can’t be that hard.”
Me: “Well, based on the information I have, I’d guess somewhere between $50 and $10,000.”
Customer: “You’re useless. I’m going to call [Competitor] and get a quote from them!”
Me: “Sounds good. I hope you have a great day!”
Customer: *Click*
