Do i have to pay anything if i ask for a life insurance quote online?

it says you have to be 18 but i still signed up for a quote … i didnt do it for the actual quote but i only did it for the offer it came with . Do i have to pay for anything ??

Do I really have to disclose anything for a life insurance quote?

My wife has a family history of cancer which is causing my life insurance quote to change from $100 a month to $300. Do I really need to disclose this info to the companies, or should I not tell them as they would need permission anyway to check history and doctors records???

Does anyone know anything about “THE GENERAL AUTO INSURANCE COMPANY”?

The rates are so low I’m nervous about swtiching over.
