Life on Florida’s West Coast

Car Insurance

Do you want to know what has me stressed out right now? Car insurance.

Florida took away the need for people to carry PIP (personal injury protection) last year, then they put it right back on as of January 1. I’m OK with that, but I am not OK with how my car insurance company handled the situation.

When PIP came off, my insurance did not go down. Instead, the company reabsorbed the coverage into other categories and my cost remained the same. BUT, when they added PIP back on they raised the coast, citing the need to add PIP coverage to my policy. Do they think I am a complete idiot? The law changed a few times and my insurance company makes a quick buck. What asses.

Of course, I am piling up info about other car insurance carriers now and next week is dedicated to getting quotes. I am absolutely switching, even if it ends up costing more. I will not give my business to a shady company.

Angie, I totally agree with you. This is completely unfair and you are doing the right thing by looking elsewhere. Everyone should compare insurance companies once a year before there renewal. I am actually pretty convince that by doing a comparison quote you’ll find a cheaper alternative. Good luck.
