I want to know whether credit score can increase auto insurance rates or not?

Yes, it can.

If your credit score falls below average category, your premium rates may sore up.
On the other hand, if you have a high credit score, you may avail best possible rates.

This is because the auto-insurers take your credit history as a major factor while analyzing your risk level, which in the process determines the insurance cost.

I did some research and wrote an article on this topic. 92% of all auto insurance companies use credit to factor in your rating. However, there are companies that don't use credit rating. if you live in Ohio, I can quote you with companies that dont use credit. lylesinsurance.com

Hi LylesInsurance,

Finding auto insurance not using credit to rate new policies is a rare thing here in Oregon.

Which companies are not using credit?

robert,
I'm afraid I can't help you for the state of Oregon. But generally speaking, the companies that don't run credit are typically your non-standard smaller companies. I can't think of any standard company that doesn't run credit. Look for the smaller companies licensed in your state, especially the "high risk" companies. that would be a good starting point.
