WOT! No Car Insurance?


 What the heck. Why had I been cancelled?

My car insurance renewal was due in early July.  I paid it in full by a check on 13th June. The check was cashed.   Pay it in full and not by monthly instalments.  Instalment payments include an 18% interest surcharge.


 Auto Owners Insurance sent me a Certificate of Insurance.

BUT Last Friday  I received the above notice of cancellation.  BOO


After a weekend of worry/frustration I took myself  this morning to my local agent (Wallace Welch & Willingham), corner of Webber and Route 41.)

A fine young agent (Miguel Heredia) was as confused as I.  He promised to take up the matter with Auto-Owners Insurance in Cincinnati. Ohio.

That he did.  Here is the dope.  

Head Office in Cincy  had received my check, but had credited the payment to an other account.

I was glad to get this message from  Miguel later in the morning.


Good morning Mr. Povey,

 

I called Auto-Owner’s and Phoebe from accounting was able to locate your check. Apparently, it was mistakenly applied to a different account, we put in a request to have it corrected and the paid-in-full discount will also be honored. Feel free to reach out to us at 941-377-7283 for any questions.

 

Best regards,

Miguel


Next year I'll take my hot dollars in cash to Wallace Welch & Willingham in Sarasota.  


For now I'll be entirely grateful to Miguel; but frustrated with the Auto -Owners Home Office.


The process should be simpler!
