      Heres a more polished and concise version of your review:---**A Cautionary Tale:**I cancelled my BCAA membership back in January 2024 as I no longer needed insurance. To my surprise, I later found out that the membership is a contract for a full year. Fine, I accepted that. However, I kept receiving renewal notices, which seemed odd, so I called BCAA to confirm my membership was indeed cancelled. I was assured that it was, and that no renewal would occur. They also confirmed they didn't have my credit card on file.The next ***** the renewal dateI was shocked to see a charge from BCAA on my credit card! After checking my account, I discovered that while my membership was cancelled, my home insurance had renewed for another year! Furious, I called the same customer ********************** *** I had spoken to earlier and reminded them that I specifically requested no renewals. After some back-and-forth, I was transferred to a manager who told me I had cancelled the membership but not the renters insurance, which was a separate matter. I couldn't believe it! I didnt realize I had to be so explicit when saying cancel my membership to also mean cancel any other policies tied to the same account. The manager eventually refunded the charge and confirmed there would be no further payments.While Ive used BCAA for over 10 years for travel insurance, I will never use them again after this experience. When a customer asks to cancel their membership, it should be understood to include all policies attached to the account.

      Hi ****,Thank you for bringing this to our attention. While our membership and insurance policies are separate products, after looking at your account, I do see that there was some misunderstanding on our part. Please accept our apologies as we acknowledge your pain points and we do take these away for training purposes.
