Q. Why was I billed twice for insurance premiums on one statement?
A.
Step 1 |
Some of the financial institutions we work with will display the billing periods for the coverage. If your statement does not reflect these dates please refer to your previous statement. If there were no premiums billed for your coverage the previous month, your billing cycle was after the statement closing date and both billings will possibly reflect on this current statement. If you recently changed your billing information, your premiums may have been billed twice to catch your policy up to a current paid to date. If you still have questions, please proceed to Step 2. |

Q. Do you charge interest on the insurance premium?
A.
Step 1 |
Since we do not handle the billing of your credit card statement, it is best to check with your financial institution that issued the card. They will be able to explain which items interest is charged on and if the insurance premium is one of those items. Due to privacy agreements, the credit card company cannot share personal account information with us. |
Q. My credit/debit card account is closed. Can you issue me a check for the refund of premiums?
A.
Step 1 |
Since premiums were billed to a credit/debit card any unearned premiums must be issued to that account. You can contact your credit card company and request a check for outstanding credit balance. |
