What's this?

My car insurance is not going to be renewed. Why? I haven't had a ticket in 20 years. Haven't had a drink in 5 months so it couldn't possibly be a dui. What is this information they couldn't receive? (Reference 1) How can it be important enough to result in this action. I have never received any request  verbal or otherwise for this information, with the exception of the information given at the time of taking out this policy.

(Referance 2) Their going to refer me to another insurance that they carry??? Is this a way to get another large fee for opening up a new policy??

(Reference 3/3a) This has been done. Request sent through email and stored in independent location.

(Referance 4) Their going to refuse to give me information? In regard to why my policy is being canceled I believe I have a right to know!

(Referance 5) Are they accusing me of committing a crime? Or just worried that their doing something wrong? I'm willing to prove my driving record.

(Referance 6) Hmmmm! I've gotta pay the state to check this out and that's only for the review! I thought our taxes paid for this stuff. Is the state working with the insurance companies to make a profit?
 

Protest this people!

Why can this stuff happen? I thought you had to be a criminal to be punished. At least here in America I did. Don't wait for it to happen to you. Call your Alfa representatives and complain. Don't make your next premium. A million of us could make a difference. That much cash would get any companies attention.

Well! It seems that this was all a big snafu. Seems like they had tried to call me and couldn't find me. Apparently this give them the right to stop your insurance coverage. Watch out ppl! They may call you one day. Hope you at home.
