Additional Notes

Complaint Category: Advertisement misrepresented a service

Complaint: Eight months ago I got in touch with the company and asked them to take me off the mailing list. I have called them three times and they are still sending me stuff.

Business Response
We immediatly remove anybody from the mailing list that calls.I would also suggest contacting consumer to be removed as this is what most agents go off of. The last thing we want to do is to spend money on something we know the person is not interested in.We sincerely apologize for any inconvienance this has caused this individual.

Additional Notes

Complaint Category: Improper collection practices

Complaint: We contested this and AAA/****** Insurance reduced the amount to $399. After further contesting this amount and unprofessional accounting practices, I was told that we owe this because AAA/****** Insurance increased our coverage during the policy. This unilateral coverage increase increased the annual policy by $700. We had multiple conversations with ****** Agency that we did not want our coverage increased.We think was a fraudulent practice to price gouge us (via insurance policy) and find it unacceptable that we are in collection action because of this unethical and fraudulent practice. We also plan to submit a complaint to the Missouri Attorney General.
Account_Number: PO-XXXXXX-X

Business Response
In reference to AAA policy number PO-XXXXXX-X
The annual premium for the home policy was $2669 due to non payment of the auto premium.
Customer called and paid auto premium, AAA reinstated auto.
Annual home premium with auto credit was then $2116 ( AAA gave a credit of $533 to the customer for reinstating auto )
Policy was in force from 7/26 and cancelled on 10/21.
Customer had made one payment on policy of $117.25 which leaves a balance of $ 399.75 owed to the company for the balance of the coverage that was in force for that time .
Summary $2116 Home premium
$517 earned premium for coverage in force ( almost 3 months)
$ 117. 25 only payment made for time in force
$ 399.75 balance still owed to AAA for coverage used.
As for the coverage changes, our system as well as AAA �s system show that we did not add or take away any coverages on this policy.
If something is not right I ****** make it right. The complaintant is welcome to call me on my personal cell if I can help in any way. I will also provide a copy of this to the complaintant as well.
