My car's covered through Parish-Heacock too. I don't recall notification of
a sell-out to Infinity, but I tend not to bother about that and may not have
paid attention. I figure my car is covered by a certain policy covering
certain things at a certain rate, and changing the company does not change
the contract (contract might change on renewal, however, so I'd check the
terms if a different insuror popped up next time). Parish (and Infinity?)
have to honor the contract agreed to.
What I did get from Parish that I recall was a notification that, paying the
minimum premium, I had room to declare a greater value for my car and
trailer on the assumption these things do increase in value (or, the repair
cost rises), and that they would accept a 20% increase in stated value
without any need for additional documentation. I called the nice lady there
and actually got my declared value raised about 23% to make it nice round
numbers.
Needless to say, I've been very happy being a Parish customer.
