That's a good question. I've been with the same insurance companies for a long time so I don't remember anything unusual happening when I first signed up. I think it was the telephone or electric company that required a letter of reference from the previous company. But there wasn't anything difficult about it. I think in one case I gave a deposit and it was returned after a year or two.
