The Claim-Free discount encourages drivers to switch to Esurance by offering them savings of up to 20 percent on car insurance if they are currently insured and have not been involved in an accident or reported a claim in the past five years.* Designed to reward safe, defensive drivers, it is one of the most substantial discounts that Esurance offers.
Additionally, in keeping with their best-of-both-worlds approach to car insurance — people when you want them, technology when you don't™ — Esurance's Claim-Free discount is easy to obtain both on the phone with a customer service representative and online at http://www.esurance.com.
"This discount enables us to introduce our 24/7 customer-friendly services and innovative features such as online repair monitoring to a new pool of potential policyholders," said Esurance Vice President of Sales Tom Capp. "Safe drivers can look to Esurance for a great discount that rewards them for their responsible driving habits."
First introduced in October 2009, the Claim-Free discount is available in Arizona, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Ohio, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington, and — as of this month, Pennsylvannia, for a total of 10 states to date.
Capp continued, "The Claim-Free discount has been extremely successful in driving a large volume of new business for Esurance, and we plan to extend it to additional states in the coming year."
*The availability, qualifications and amount of the Claim-Free discount varies by state and may be subject to terms and conditions not described above. Contact Esurance at 1-800-ESURANCE (1-800-378-7262) or online at http://www.esurance.com for more information regarding your eligibility for this discount.

These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by White Mountains in light of its experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors believed to be appropriate in the circumstances. However, whether actual results and developments will conform to our expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations, including:
