Pat,
Insurance Companies legally HAVE to contact you about a missed premium and legally HAVE to warn you again that without paying missed premium(s) then cover will be cancelled.
AAMI will need to prove that they made all efforts to contact you, and you will need to prove that IF they did make efforts to warn/contact you, that you didn't receive it.
That's the tricky one, how do I prove that I never received it? Obviously I know I never saw it otherwise I would've rectified it immediately. But that's just my word against theirs. Noone can totally prove that that mail was received by me. And my argument is, for such an important thing as a car insurance policy being voided, a letter is not an appropriate way of notifying their customer. I get it that they can't call everyone everytime a payment is missed, a letter or email is adequate there, but the last straw if nothing is sorted should surely be a phone call or automated text (which is apparently what they do now, but not two months ago......)
