              Billing Issues
              Status:
              Answered
              I am writing to file a formal complaint against Travelers Insurance Company regarding their handling of my policy cancellation and subsequent billing issue. I believe that the company's actions have been unprofessional and have caused me significant distress. Upon canceling my policy with Travelers and switching to a different insurance provider, I was unaware of a 12-day gap between the end of my Travelers policy and the start of the new one. As a traveling Registered Nurse, I was away on a contract during this time and did not receive the bill that Travelers claims to have sent me by mail. Consequently, I was blindsided when a collection agency contacted me three months later demanding payment of $136, without any prior notification from Travelers about the outstanding balance. While I do not mind paying the bill, it is not about the money but more about the potential negative impact of having a collection agency on my credit report. After contacting Travelers to address the issue, I was met with a lack of empathy and unhelpful responses. Despite assurances that my case would be reviewed and resolved, I continued to receive harassing phone calls, texts, and emails from the collection agency. When I sought assistance from Travelers representatives, including Josh and his supervisor Casey, I was met with dismissive and uncooperative attitudes. Casey even went as far as insinuating that the fault lay with me for not receiving the paper bill and paying it promptly. The lack of communication, transparency, and professionalism demonstrated by Travelers in handling this matter is unacceptable. I have been left without a satisfactory resolution and have been pressured to admit fault and pay the collection agency without due process or explanation. I am seeking a fair resolution to this issue that does not unfairly burden me with a debt that I was not properly informed about or given the opportunity to address.

              Beware!! I’ve had this policy for several years! The same trees have been in my yard the entire time! They dropped my Homeowners because they “decided “ they would no longer cover homes that had tree limbs near the home. It wasn’t an issue when I chose the policy!!! I’m now struggling to find insurance because they dropped me!!! BEWARE!!! Use a different insurance company!
