Acceptance Insurance is a provider that specializes in coverage for high-risk or non-standard drivers. Acceptance seems to welcome all drivers who have had issues with getting coverage from other major insurers, helping customers with a negative driving history start over. This, of course, comes at a higher price tag than other leading insurance companies. The company does offer several discounts that can make purchasing a policy through Acceptance more affordable.

Customer Experience - 3 / 5

Acceptance Insurance policyholders can contact a service representative during the company’s business hours, Monday through Saturday, by phone or email.
