Usps Insurance Policy

What happens if I do not tell my car insurance company my new address?

I moved to new area and my premium will more than double. I live in California. What would happen if I did not change my address to the DMV and my insurance company car? I $ 150 left to pay on my current contract, which expires in October 2008. I'd like to keep my old address on my account until the policy expires, then shop around a new policy. I am supposed to renew my registration in September. I fear that the DMV sends renewal information to my old address and I won 'recipients. I think the USPS is charged by the DMV does not forward mail to another address. Edit: I moved from a city in Orange County to Los Angeles. My premium was just under $ 500. If I change my address in Los Angeles it will be $ 900 – they offered any kind of pro-rated plan, they simply added $ 400 more to my bill. The insurance policy is from April 2008 to October 2008.

If you do not give your insurance company of your correct address to avoid paying the correct premium for the risk, you are actually committing fraud. Number one, your insurer could refuse to pay if you have an accident or claim. Number two, the premiums that you paid are wasted. Number three, you have committed a criminal act by representing the state that you are properly insured by required (false statement). Number four, you can be personally sued by anyone who is injured or suffers a loss caused by you. Check other companies to lower premiums, but pay the premium based on the statements true for your own protection.
