My current car insurance coverage here in Austin, Texas is about to end soon and I plan to switch companies. Is it automatic that it’s gonna be cancelled if I don’t pay the premium after the end of the coverage?

Majority of car insurance providers declare in your policy that you could drop your insurance coverage at any time through informing them in writing stating the exact date of cancellation. But most clients think that if they want to cancel their policy at time that their coverage is expiring, all they need to do is pay no attention to the bill. The car insurance providers don’t look at it that way. They would send you another bill for the upcoming premium due and if you don’t pay that, your insurer in Austin, Texas will drop you because of non-payment and that will go to your credit report. Your current insurer won’t know that you have bought insurance from a different insurance provider. Remember that your present insurer should let you drop your policy if you have already bought a new one.

You have to get in touch with your insurer and tell them that you are terminating your policy. Make sure that you give them a particular date or else, you could end up not being insured for quite some time. Your insurer would then send you a termination request. This form is normally already answered and all it needs is your signature but be sure that you read it to see if there is any mistake.
