I don't think your advertising staff realizes the ad which features two people and the guy who says he will Never get married, never have children, never live in the suburbs, never own a minivan - and for all these "nevers' he does exactly what he said he'd never do. Following his track record, the last never is "never let you go" where he is sitting with his wife and two daughters on a couch; well since all his prior "nevers" to which he swore he would never do - he did each and every one! So what is that telling you about his last "never" to "never let you go"? Follow the pattern and you can assume he will in fact "let them go" eventually. Think about it advertising geniuses...

Beware of this company trying to sell you a replacement cost policy on your business or home. Although it seems there agents are very honest and try to do the best for thier clients, thier claims people and processes are very much the opposite especially if your claim is ver large. If you think this company wants to pay you more to rebuild than what you paid you will have a very rude awakening. Be prepared to go to your. Lawyer. And file suite as they will want to do an investigation that takes years. They will hire an outside attorney to grill you and call it an examination under oath. In that exam they will try to make you admit to violations in your policy and if that doesn't work accuse you of criminal activity. Read your policy thoroughly and understand it totally. Make sure you have an attorney with you and absolutely don't give any statements without. One as they will use anything they can to beat your claim or beat you in court. They also already at this time before you even file a claim have processes and witnesses that will testify against you. Although many states have bad faith. Laws the insurance industry especially state farm thumb thier nose at it and the court system. You will be hard pressed to find professional witnesses against them as most make a comfortable living working for them. And get this they are forensic professionals because they have been to a 1 or 2 week seminar put on or paid for by the insurance company. They will run up your expenses and try to bankrupt you taking as long as they legally can, if they lose they will appeal and appeal again yes they have deeper pockets than anyone.
Just google bad faith and you'll find state farm as the poster child. If you and I operated a business like this we would go to prison for fraud and racketeering.

My husband and I had been with state farm for over 50 years, but when we submitted 3 claims in 2 years, our insurance was cancelled. Cancelling someones insurance after 50+ years of paying premiums on time,(and not cheap premiums)makes a loud statement about "the good neighbor." they're not the kind of "neighbor" I want or need.
