They changed
their name in 1953 to Safeco as an abbreviation of Selective
Auto and Fire Insurance Company of America who they
took over in that year. Safeco were one of the pioneers
of computerized book keeping to handle their massive
client base.
For that reason, it was only obvious that when the internet
became a reality, Safeco Auto Insurance would be one
of the first auto insurance companies to realize the
potential of this new media and begin to offer online
auto insurance quotes.
For consumers who choose to purchase auto insurance
directly from Safeco online then there is the chance
to reduce the cost of their auto insurance by a reasonable
percentage. Safeco also maintain the option for their
clients of purchasing auto insurance from one of their
network of independent insurance agents. Refusing
to become yet another huge and faceless corporation,
Safeco auto insurance has done their best to instill
an atmosphere of warmth and friendliness among their
customers, employees and agents. Safeco sell their
insurance policies through their national network
of independent agents and brokers.
These sales people are trained to give existing and
potential customers the best of service and advice.
Safeco see their mission as making the experience
of buying, selling and owning insurance easier and
less expensive than any of their competition. Which
they succeed in doing more often than not.
