direct general insurance may get your license suspended because of their mistake Internet

Here is one  for the books.  I renewed my insurance in February with Direct General Insurance.  Then in April of the same year I was pulled over for get this a suspended drivers license.  Apparently the company did not notify the DMV that I had insurance.  I was thinking about going with another company back in February so since I didn't renew on the 16th when my policy was to expire they were sure to jump on it to tell dmv my policy had expired.  When I went ahead and renewed on the 17th did they even think to report that to the dmv, NO.  So I received a $166 ticket for suspended license, $61 for a new license, $6.25 for a temporary license and $30 to take the online course so it wouldn't affect my points on license.  The company just claims it is my fault.  I didn't know I had to notify DMV whenever I was to purchase car insurance. I thought the company you just spent a arm and a leg with would do their job and notify the dmv.  SO WATCH OUT FOR THIS COMPANY THEY WOULDN'T EVEN REFUND ALL THE MONEY I SPENT BECAUSE OF THEIR MISTAKE.  FIND SOMEONE WITH BETTER COMPANY ETHICS.  JUST A WARNING
