Car high premiums than quote

by Hell or High Water on Jun 25, 2014
1.5 out of 5 stars

Car hit by another person in August, insurance did not try to get us top dollar for car, they also declared salvage status on car before we settled and it was still road worthy? Can you say bargaining in bad faith, forced us to take off road and get another vehicle out of pocket right away before settled in Nov 2013, eventually got paid more than offered but the tactic of declaring car as salvage status when road worthy was ludicrous... why no class action law suits yet baffles the mind.

They eventually come up a $1000 from what they said and let us keep the car in end as salvage which was better than what we were first offered which was at least $1500 below market value even with higher kms, have not sold car as salvage yet, but should get $1200, so made out better in end than if I had sold on market wholesale, but not if I had accepted their low offer to start with!!

Son was quoted about $125 per month, after he asked them to check his grid level due to tickets and a suspension, they claimed he did not divulge everything, then took out three months of premiums out of his account in one shot at $260 x 3 months = $780, over double what he was quoted, I told him to go elsewhere before that but he did not listen... live and learn!! That was just for comp an PL no collision coverage! He called to cancel, they still took another payment out, then said oh by the way you have to sign this and send it back to us (the broker), over 3 weeks later, then did not send a policy or pink slips out on time so technically was driving with out insurance for two weeks until I told him to park and cancel in writing... of course they said he would get his money back (less min. retained premium at higher amount? and 1 month plus beyond when he quit driving... time will tell, still waiting for that form and credit back??

We cannot move insurers until two open home claims settled so why would I use them again in future after I can change insurers!!
