Re: OMG -Panic! Missed insurance premium...now coverage terminated!

Tough call. I would be keeping detailed notes of everything for sure. But might it be too early to start an action if you feel the insurance rep is sincere in her help. But can you really count on that? I think it is very hopeful that they requested the premium payments. That and your documentation of the chain of events sounds very favorable.
Is there a time frame in which to file a complaint with the state? I suggest having everything lined up, but not pull the trigger yet.
Do you have ANY coverage at the moment? That's an important consideration too, of course.
Keep the faith.
