Allstate Charges Cancellation Fees Even When Customer Initiates Policy Termination

Allstate Charges Full Annual Premium After Cancellation and Withholds Refund

This billing practice during policy cancellation creates financial harm and places burden on the customer to recover their own money. It reflects a structural issue in insurance cancellation processing.
