Allstate agents required a customer to provide proof of a replacement policy before processing a cancellation, creating a systemic switching barrier. This practice traps consumers and discourages shopping for better coverage. Opportunity exists for insurance transition management tools that streamline the switch with concurrent coverage documentation.

Policyholders have no audit trail or self-service verification to confirm a requested cancellation was actually processed.
