Country Insurance — 

I was insured with country mutual for over 15 years, in that time I only had one small claim. A few years ago I unfortunately had to file business bankruptcy. I had a business policy with them as well so I had to file against them. A mere $135 in premiums due. Shortly there after, i got a cancelation notice, reason stated was excessive use of the tow coverage. At that time, it had been over 1 year since I had used the tow coverage. It is a shame, for them anyway, because I have since went to Allstate Insurance, and have been claim free for quite some time. Shame on them for using declaring a bogus reason to drop my personal insurance because of a business bankruptcy. Shame Shame Shame!!!

My daughter has a roommate who is an underwriter. She always tells me people never realize that sometimes it takes a company up to 2 years to cancel someone--it goes through several review processes to be sure that it is LEGAL and FAIR--I realize some bad faith insurance companies don't follow that process, but I have been with Country for years. I have had claims, periods without claims, and whenever I have had a question about a rate change, or a policy change, my agent always finds out and lets me know. Once she let me talk right to the underwriters so they could explain it! Well, I had my daughter's roommate over to make sure I had help, and she said they were right on the money. I would not assume that is the reason without knowing for sure. Just a thought. People are so angry to get mad and place blame, just because you hadn't used towing in a year doesn't mean you didn't have a large amount of claims prior to that!
