      Billing Issues
      Status:
      Answered
      I submitted documents from the department of motor vehicles to NYCM on February 28th in regard to cancelling my insurance for my 2011 ******* ******. I am currently being charged $541 by the company that collects my premium payments, ****** *******. I have reached out to NYCM by both telephone and email since early march to follow~up on my cancellation with each call I was told by several representatives that “we cannot provide a timeline” of when the adjustment for the removal of the vehicle from the policy. ****** ******* has paid the entire yearly premium to NYCM and are looking for a refund of the amount that is left over for the cancelled vehicle. I reached back out to NYCM on friday 4/12/24 to ask about the status of the refund to ****** and was told bu Michelle in Underwriting that NYCM will not be issuing a credit to ****** ******* which will cause My policy to be cancelled. I cannot afford to make a payment to ****** for 2 vehicles. My 2011 ******* has a blown engine which is why I cancelled the policy for it. I make my living driving. I am a direct support assistant for New York State Office for People with Developmental Disabilities and my car is an absolute necessity. I am not making any progress with NYCM regarding this matter. I was sent a blurry email from the underwriter at NYCM which she told me to send to my insurance broker who could maybe call ****** *******. The email is insufficient in getting any changes made. ****** ******* is expecting the refund of excess premiums paid to NYCM. In 2022 I experienced a loss of my home due to a fire and have been trying to keep our heads above water. This situation is causing my family and I much distress. If I lose my car I will ultimately lose my job. Please help me.

      Contact the Buffalo FBI, NYCM is defrauding their policyholders when they refuse to meet contractual obligations,underpay, refuse to pay claims that they are contractually obligated to pay, keeping premiums, keeping deductibles, failing to conduct due diligence and proper investigations, making false statements, falsifying documentation. Their lawyer made false statements to the police and is being reported to the attorney grievance committee. The FBI eagerly took my call and their CEO info, I explained the letter I sent to their CEO however their CEO never bothered to respond, I explained the false statements their lawyer and adjuster supervisor made to local police and I was able to prove it, I explained how NYCM is defrauding elderly on fixed incomes and minorities who are poverty stricken. NYCM took 100% liability for their drunk driver that caused extensive injuries however they are purposely retaliating and committing fraud, refusing to send proper documentation to the bank for GAP insurance payment. Two additional car payments have come out of the elderly 80 year old victims account and NYCM is purposely neglecting to send proper documentation. The DOJ and NY attorney general are also being made aware.
