Your deductible only gets paid in the event of a claim. For example, you tap a light pole in the mall parking lot. The pole is ok but your car is damaged. If you have comprehensive coverage on your car, your insurance company will pay a claim to have it repaired. So, you get a body shop who says it will cost $1,400 to fit it. If your deductible is, say, $500.00, your insurance company cuts a check to the body shop for $900.00 which is the difference between the damage repair bill and the deductible. Thus, you must come up with the $500.00 amount.
