Just bought new Homeowners Ins. policy & an initial discount was removed!?
I just switched both my old home & auto policies to metlife (from Amica & GEICO), due to substantial rate savings. My quote & initial paperwork for the new home owners policy provided for a "superior home discount" of 10%. After my first year premium was paid in full, I received a notice from the insurance company that the discount was removed, with no explanation, with a bill for the remaining amount due. How can they retroactively increase my premium like this? Obviously, I will call tomorrow, but I am irrate, since I just went through all of this trouble to switch, in reliance on the rate being lower due to the discounts !
Additional Details
Just to clarify: my policy has not renewed. I just paid for my first year upfront, and immediately they send me paperwork saying, "discount removed, additional xxx owed."

Quotes are not binding from any company and with any type of insurance, and are contingent upon underwriting. Usually they are given in good faith dependent upon the information known at that time.

Who told you that you qualified for the discount? If you do not qualify for any discount it can and will be removed retroactively to the time of policy inception or the time you no longer qualify, not the time that underwriting found out you did not qualify. If the agent told you that you qualified SOMETIMES the agent can argue his case with the underwriter and get it reinstated. If you do actually qualify for the discount, or if the agent can get it back, it will be reinstated and you won't owe anything more.

If you did this all on-line without using an agent you were acting as your own agent and therefore you are probably stuck with the new rate.

Well, you are going to have to call the agent and ask about it. Likely, it's either a mistake (oops, someone pushed the wrong key) or a rating error on the quote (oops, they put in that your roof, plumbing, heating, and electric had all been updated in the past ten years, and that isn't the fact).

FWIW, Met has a reputation in TX of doing that thing - the agent does the quote, adding in all these "discounts" that you don't really qualify for. And the quote is only binding, for the CONDITIONS STATED. As in, that you are ELIGIBLE for that discount. Then when you switch, and cancel your old policies, the new ones are "corrected".

All you can do is complain, but your state insurance commissioner likely won't make them change the rate back. Sorry.

probably underwriters at the company revise application and some documentation is missing, when that happens automatically they will increase de premium but they can remove it again if the increase on the premium was for missing documentation, maybe a copy of the prior auto & homeowners policy or the person who quote you, give you automatic discounts for updates on your property or monitored alarm... updates that you have to prove with some documentation. There's a lot of companies that ask for photos of the property also...
First you have to ask what was the reason of the discount and if you need to send any other paperwork.
Good look !!!


Ms. MD
They always give you a low premium to entice you then always raise the rates when you policy renews. It's not fair but that's how most insurance companies work.
