The insurance company has an option to cancel the insurance policy and provide a refund of premium through the pro-rata method with prior notice.&nbsp;<\/li><li>If the policyholder does not make any claim during the policy period then the insurance company will pay no claim bonus.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/35muHYD\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/pricejugaad\/image\/upload\/v1660127677\/mymoneysouq_images\/car-insurance\/We_know_you_care_about_your_Car_-_Renew_your_Car_Insurance_Online_updated_2.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;The types of claims and the frequency that you make insurance claims matters a lot.
