My best friend did not pay her car insurance bill and her insurance company dropped her. She just went through a divorce and is having a really tough time with everything. I told her to call the car insurance company that just cancelled her policy ,explain the situation and maybe they will allow her to pay what she owes and then she can drive legally again.

After calling the car insurance company, she told me that they said that since she had been late so many other times that they were choosing not to reinstate her policy, even if she paid the amount that was past due. I told her to get online and search for online car insurance companies like the ones that have all of those annoying late night commercials we see all the time.

She did get three quotes from car insurance companies that would be happy to have her as a client. She paid them the first month’s premium to the company she thought gave her the best deal and was legal again to be driving her car. I told her that if she ever needed help with paying her bills again, she should call me and I would make sure that everything gets paid, including her car insurance.
