<prompt> Human: Hello all, Prior to October 1st I had an insurance policy for the past 2 years with The General. Long story but I needed coverage and they offered it. My policy was due to renew December 1st. I just couldnt take the rediculous expense 179 a month for basically no coverage so I started shopping around. I find a policy with Progressive, for triple the coverage amounts, less than half the deductible for almost half 98.97. Needless to say I signed up effective immediately, and sent a notice to cancel to The General. Today I received a notice from The General that aid my coverage has lapsed. Im concerned because I know a lapse in coverage is a bad thing. Anf will sting me in my renewal... I have my insurance card from progressive that states my coverage dates, bit the letter from The General had me concerned. Shouldnt out have said my policy is cancelled per my request? The wording lapsed is very unsettling. And I in trouble here? Or just reading too much into this. If it makes a difference I live in PA.Thank you all.  <response>: It doesnt matter if you dont have coverage with The General anymore lapsed if you are covered by Progressive for that time period.
