You should contact the insurance company and have the automatic payment cancelled. The insurance company can also arrange for a credit to be issued for any debits made in error to your Bank of America account. You should also contact Bank of America customer service and inform them that you are disputing the ACH debit transaction.

Most insurance policies do not have a cash value. This means that all the money you pay in premiums is used to "insure" you. If you don't need the insurance, or if you cancel the insurance, you will not receive any of the money you have paid in premiums.

Thank you for your question.
