Auto Insurance Claims: car accident, lienholder interest

Question
jp this is Debbie again about the 2005 Chevrolet malibu maxx as of yesterday. Will i be receiving the check or the finance company?

Answer
Normally, payments are made to both the owner and the lienholder, but it is up to the insurance company to decide whether they put the bank's name on the check or not.  I would bet they pay it to both you and the lienholder just to cover their butts.
