How to Cancel a Policy You Are Replacing

[sman]

Forgive me Fisher, you said your M.O. was to have the client call the insurer and stop the draft with the intention of the policy canceling (not your exact words, but close enough). I didn't realize we were arguing semantics here. When I said the client needed to call the carrier to cancel, it was in reference to the bank draft since that is what we were discussing.

This was my exact sentence:

Most banks charge a fee to stop a draft. She needs to call the carrier on the policy to cancel.

So, since I said to have the client call the carrier to cancel the draft and you said to have the client call the carrier and cancel the draft, in my world that means the same thing. Obviously not in yours.

I'm way confused... you quoted me but nowhere did I say anything about calling the insurance company to cancel the policy. Am I just retarded?

No worries, sman, when my eyes saw this--

She needs to call the carrier on the policy to cancel.

--my brain processed it as calling to cancel the policy. Sometimes cyber-syntax does not translate properly.

Well in your defense when I replied on the blackberry I did say something about canceling the policy. But that was just on the fly and not going back and reading the entire thread. However, my original comment was in reference to canceling the draft.

I think we're on the same page with the exception of banks charging to stop drafts.
