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!
