Looking for insurance agent who will accept credit card payments

[Daniel85]

I have identified a supplemental health plan from a specific carrier that I wish to purchase. I understand there is no savings to me if I purchase it directly from them. The insurance company does not allow credit card payments and I was wondering if anyone is aware of an insurance agent that will accept credit payments from the consumer and then make a payment to the insurer of the premiums on their behalf.

Agents are not allowed to do that for the most part, so no, it won't work this way.

When I worked for them, Combined Insurance took Visa/MC.

That practice is co-mingling and taking possession of insurance company funds... and an agent would be terminated for doing so.

If the agent has a company that allows them to accept cash payment for the premiums and then remit an agency check to the company, it would work.

I think this is Lost Dollar's cousin . . .

If you are too suspicious of the carrier to give them an echeck for the policy, you shouldn't be doing business with them.

Methinks he wants the reward miles. I just paid my radio advertising bill with AMEX for that very reason.
