What's the difference between dealing near a vehicle insurance company directly or a local agent?

I was beside the same insurance company for 10 years using equal local agent. My car insurance rates kept going up every time my policy be renewed. I decided to explore and see what better rates I could grasp with other vehicle insurance companies. Friends and family give me names of local agents from insurance companies they used. All the agents quoted me really lofty. Then, I called a through insurance company's 800 number (not through an agent) and got the lowest quote. So, why do empire use insurance agents? Is there a judgment why it's better to use an agent?

Answers:    In addition to what a-mac said; if you own a claim but you are unsure if it is covered you can discuss it with your agent in need submitting it to the company. (Companies do not like this - fyi)
If you ring up the company, and it turns out there is no payout on the claim it will count against you and you will probably see a conversion in your rates.
Remember: you receive what you pay for. There is one company that have an 800 number that I would be extremely cautious next to...

I like using an agent because if I enjoy a question, I christen the same character or I go to their department and sit across the desk from them. I don't have to give the name India and then donate up and research answers online and hope for the best. I don't like the channel big companies dismiss the need for customer service!
