(2) (a) Except as provided in subsection (2)(b), withdrawal of consent by a party becomes effective 15 days after the insurer receives notice of the withdrawal pursuant to the insurer's noticed procedures.
(b) Except as provided in 33-15-603(2) or if a party updates contact information pursuant to the insurer's noticed procedures, a withdrawal becomes effective immediately upon the insurer learning that the electronic delivery method currently used is no longer an effective delivery mechanism with respect to the party.
