What does "total 6-month premium" mean?

I'm trying to get insurance as a new (

@tonya12 Give them a call. Each company is different.

@jazzino I can't get past the phone tree, the bot just tells me to get a quote online and hangs up.

@tonya12 generally if its for 6 months they will give you a total premium amount so 6 x 600=3600...but call them....100 a month for a new driver on own policy sounds way cheap

 

[tonya12]

@waitingongod I thought that too. I don't have any way to confirm that though, I have been unable to get through their idiotic phone bot to a person no matter what I try. It just says "you can get a quote online" and hangs up.

@tonya12 As a brand new driver without help from your parents, you really should not be doing this on your own. Google independent agents in your area and sit down with one. They can explain everything to you, make sure you have the correct coverage, and find you the best deal. It's free to use their services.

@former32%C2%B0mason The only independent agent in the area has inaccurate hours on google maps, is 45 minutes by transit away from me, and when I call to ask for an agent, forwards me nowhere.

EDIT: I managed to find one with a different search term, actually. Hopefully that works.

@tonya12 Total for 6 months.

@dragonmasa I've heard this a few times, but is it realistic that a first-time under-25 driver can get $100/month insurance?
