New York State Insurance Department releases 2008 Annual Ranking of Automobile Insurance Complaints
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- The New York State Insurance Department (NYSID) has released its Annual Ranking of Automobile Insurance Complaints and Mercury Insurance tops the list with the fewest number of complaints. The report provides consumers with a convenient tool to help select an auto insurer based on its complaint ratio. Companies with the fewest complaints per million dollars of premium appear at the top of the list, while those with the highest complaint ratios appear at the bottom.
"Customer service is essential to the success of every business," said Joanna Moore, senior vice president of claims for Mercury. "Mercury's ability to deliver excellent service is based on a collaborative effort that reaches across the company to include the underwriting, billing and claims, as well as our agents and brokers. Collectively, these groups provide Mercury customers with an excellent customer service experience and an excellent insurance value."
Complaint ratios are determined by the number of complaints upheld as a percentage of an insurer's private passenger auto insurance business and calculated using an average of two years' premium data.
