Pronto processed an EFT of $166 from my account without my consent or authorization to do so on June 15, 2024. Pronto also created a new policy without my consent or authorization to do so. I called on June 15, 2024 to their customer support line and informed them that I had purchased a new policy as the website had shown that my policy had already cancelled. I was informed that they could not cancel the policy that was created automatically by their system and I had to call back on June 29 to request the policy to be canceled. I asked why as I never requested, agreed or signed any forms for a new policy and wanted my money back. I was issued a partial refund for the existing policy I requested to be cancelled and the payment collected on 05/15/24 was $166 but they only refunded $74 as they claimed it was due to processing fees. I informed them I wanted my $166 refunded that collected without my consent or approval and I was informed they could not refund the amount due to a new policy was created. I reiterated that I did not request or authorize a new policy. I was told to call back. I sent an email 06/15/24 to their customer service inbox and no response has been received to this date. I called back on 06/24/24 and was told by another rep I had to call back on June 30 to request to cancel my policy. I informed her that I never requested this new policy to be created and why do I have to call back to cancel if I have already informed them I did not authorize or consent to a new policy and want a refund. I was told to call back on June 30, this is now a different date I was told to call back. My worry is I will have to call back on both dates and no refund will be provided as they will claim processing fees on a policy I never requested, consented or authorized.Business response

Mr. St. *****,
When you purchased the original policy and signed up for the automatic withdrawal, you authorized Pronto Insurance to continue to fraft and renew your policy until we received notice from you to cancel. The verbiage is as follows:
I authorize Pronto ******************** (Pronto) and the above listed financial institution or card issuer to initiate monthly
deductions from my bank account or credit card account for payment of recurring and/or renewal premiums on the insurance
policy issued to me by Pronto. I understand that such payment will first be drafted approximately (1) 16 days before the due
date of the next payment or (2) 10 days before the policy expiration or cancellation, whichever is applicable. I understand in
the event any such draft deduction when first initiated is not honored by my bank account or credit card account, ********************** will
continue to initiate the same draft on a daily basis each day thereafter until such draft is honored. I understand that I am
solely responsible for any fees charged by my bank or card issuer as a result of this authorization. I understand that the
premiums will continue to be drafted and the policy will continue to renew with corresponding deductions from my account
made as described above, until and unless I notify Pronto at least 20 days prior to the due date of the next payment or at
least 20 days prior to the policy expiration or cancellation date. I also authorize Pronto and the financial institution shown
above to initiate credit entries to my (our) account in order to correct any erroneous deductions or to provide a refund of
premium where appropriate. If this authorization applies to an eCheck, I further authorize a $25 service charge for declined,
returned, or unpaid drafts regarding any scheduled draft as described above. I warrant that I am the owner or authorized
signer on the account listed above and that I have full authority to enter into this agreement.THe withdrawals were authorized as was the renewal based upon the agreement signed when purchasing the initial policy. However, I have reviewed your renewal policy and have requested a full refund be sent to you and you will not need to contact **************** to ensure it is cancelled. We appreciate your business and hope you return to Pronto Insurance in the future.

An auto accident occurred on 5/11/2024 and the other party was at fault. Since the accident, I have been trying to get in contact with this insurance company so an adjuster can come out to look at my vehicle and I have not been contacted at any point in regards to my vehicle. The airbags deployed and it is it not drivable. I have called multiple times since 5/13. I submitted an online request on 5/14. Ive called almost every day since the accident and just leave messages without a return call. The adjuster is ********************************* and I only found out this information when I called **** at ***** Insurance Agency to get some kind of information and he was able to give me his extension number 126. I Called 5/21 at 5:27 and there was no answer so I tried to leave a voicemail but it was full so I was not able to. I also sent a detailed email with picture of the incident on 5/23 at 3:43pm. I called again on 5/28 at 10:03am and was able to leave a voicemail this time. It has been almost 3 weeks and I still have not heard anything from this insurance company at all in regards to my car.Business response

I paid Phoenix Insurance Group $941.00 cash for 3 months of auto insurance protection to go to Pronto Insurance as they were the third-party representative. I paid this money at a office location in *********. Pronto Insurance continued to deduct the payment thru my bank account. I was told this cash would got towards my monthly payments and they would report it to Pronto Insurance. When I saw the deductions removed from my bank account for payments I had already made in cash, I went back to the Phoenix Insurance office and they told me the payments were already sent to Pronto. I called Pronto Insurance and they told me they did not receive the cash. They said they probably updated on their system but not on the Pronto Insurance system. They did not offer any other resolution and I am at an end with neither company offering a resolution.Business response

Phoenix Insurance is an independent agent that sells Pronto Products. This complaint is for Phoenix Insurance and not Pronto as we are not the agent of record and have processed only what Phoenix Insurance has requested on behalf of the customer.Customer response
05/28/2024
Complaint: 21695315
I am rejecting this response because: the third party insurance group Phoenix Insurance Group, shown in the attached receipt provided, is the person who took the cash and did not properly report my cash payment to Pronto Insurance. This complaint is against the Phoenix Insurance Group as they are the own who took the cash and did not apply it to my account. This response does not suffice. The Phoenix Insurance Group should be contacted and the Representative shown in the receipt I provided should be questioned as she is not communicating with me and Pronto Insurance is sending me back to ******* Insurance Group. These companies are sending me back and forth to each without a resolution and no other proof of my cash payment being applied to my account. This extremely back business practice and I need assistance resolving this.
Sincerely,

Phoenix Insurance group is an independent agent and needs to be contacted for any refund due. Phoenix Insurance collected the money from the insured and not Pronto Insurance.Customer response

Complaint: 21695315
I am rejecting this response because: This is a not a response to my complaint, this is a generic statement of their business practice.
I have already made several attempts to contact the person who helped me at ******* Insurance and have not received any confirmation that the cash I gave her was applied correctly to my Pronto account. I already know I need to call the company for a refund. I have already done that and they are not helping me. That is not a response to MY COMPLAINT! That is simply a rule of business they tell everyone. I am submitting a COMPLAINT that I have ALREADY attempted to call several times to get a refund and I am simply given the run around. I have contacted the company several times and they continue to give me the run around, that is the reason I am submitting this complaint to the Better Business Bureau because I have called the Phoenix Insurance Group several times and they are not providing me with a confirmation that the cash I gave them was applied to my Pronto Insurance account.Sincerely,

2-19-24 I went to pronto insurance to add a second vehicle and make the monthly vehicle insurance payment for a second time on a new policy because I was put through a similar incident on a previous policy that ended up lapsing and I had to pay to start a whole new policy I've been with the company for over 10 years and this is a new scam that is appearing. They failed both times to communicate that they were not taking the monthly payment and the money we were paying to add the new vehicle was for just that and not towards any of the insurance even though I was in the office to do just that as well as at a new vehicle. So again I don't have enough money to cover the policy that is now two months due, leaving a balance of $210 instead of $113 with a late fee. they did this to me on the previous policy that ended up laughing so again for a third time I'm going to have to start a whole new policy which cost me almost $300 every time and I've had to do this twice now because of the scam there now pulling on us consumers. Pronto insurance has done nothing to resolve the issue either time and continue to hold me fully financially responsible for their slip **** I was there in their office money in hand to make the payments they took money gave me a receipt depicted a whole nother price amount and due date. I even called two times prior to confirm the mountain dew and the due date. Then when I went to make the payment as of 3/26/24 I was told a whole another story and the payment was not what was reflected on the receipt that also depicts the due date in purple handwriting. PRONTO INSURANCE POLICY NUMBER (PR-000385397-00) 2014 ****** MAXIMA AND 2001 MERCURY GRAND *********************** WITH A MULTI CAR DISCOUNT AD ONE VEHICLE BEING $84 A MONTH TWO VEHICLES IS SUPPOSED TO BE A MULTI VEHICLE DISCOUNT PRICE. I KNOW I AM NOT THE ONLY VICTIM OF THIS NEW SCAM THAT PRONTO IS UTILIZING TO FORCE PEOPLE TO PAY MORE MONEY TO START A WHOLE NEW POLICY PRETTY MUCH EVERY OTHER MONTH.Business response

**************,
The receipt provided by you in your complaint was the premium due for your first vehicle. When adding the Niccan, the premium for the entire term was increased by a total of $260. Furthermore, notices were sent to your home address showing the exact amount due and when the payment is due to avoid cancellation on 2/20/24 and again on 3/10/2024. Your policy remained active until 4/9/24 and was cancelled due to non-payment. We deeply regret any misunderstanding that *** have occurred, but did provide multiple notices including the amount due and the exact cancellation date.
