5. How we work
FIR is not an Insurance Agency and is not licensed to sell insurance. FIR does not provide insurance quotes to the consumers but pairs the consumers with local insurance agents.
After you submit a quote your information is submitted to local insurance agents who then post your quote on the Free Insurance Report.com website where you can watch the results as they come in. In the event we do not have an agent in your territory we will on a best efforts basis find the next closest agent(s) to you and reserve the right to pass your information on to one of your third party agent networks to ensure that you receive as many quotes as possible.
FIR does not charge the consumers a fee for our service, rather the insurance agents pay FIR a fee to purchase territories and leads. FIR is not an agent of you, the insurance company or the insurance agents; we do not recommend any particular insurance agent, insurance company or any type of insurance. We recommend you research each agent and policy before making a decision to purchase insurance. We cannot guarantee that you will receive any quotes.
By submitting a quote request, you authorize FIR to provide your information to insurance agents, both local and National. You also authorize FIR to provide your information to our third party agent networks in the event that there are no local agents in your territory. By submitting a quote request, you acknowledge that FIR's service requires that the agents may obtain a consumer report or credit score from a consumer report agency as part of the underwriting process. Where permitted by law, some insurance companies or their agents may confirm your information through the use of consumer reports, which may include credit score and driving record.
You understand that you are extending an express invitation for insurance agents to contact you by any means provide on your quote request, including your phone numbers and email addresses.
