Insurance Company: Allstate
Coverage Type: Auto/Boat/Motorcycle
- General - I feel abused by this company
Hello,
My Insurance Co. wouldnt reinstate my policy after seven years.On October 12th i was hit by a woman and she was ticketed.My car was totaled and i was hurt a bit.I wasnt able to purchase a car till Feb.In Nov. I called Allstate to explain the situation.Allstate was told I didnt have a car and that I wouldnt need Insurance till I bought one.At that time Allstate never mentionted anything to me about the Fla. States policys.Now its Feb.and Ive bought a Car and I called Allstate back.When I called them back they told me they couldnt give me a Policy.In Nov. i never was told anything about that this would happen.Anyhow in order to get insurance i had to go with another company and pay nearly double.I used to pay 148.00 monthly and now its 277.00 for less coverage.I feel like i really was burned.The Lady was charged with the ticket,my car was totaled and it wasnt my fault for any of this.How can i do anything about this?

From the sounds of it you may have received bad advice from your agent. They should have advised you to keep your policy in force until you purchased a new vehicle. It would have cost you money while you didn't have a car, but you wouldn't have had these problems. I would keep shopping around now that you have coverage. You may find a better rate out there.
