Insurance company sent out an adjuster and everything was taken care of minus the deductible, no hassles.

I’ve had less luck with auto claims but my homeowner’s claims have never been a problem.

Good luck.

seems there are scams all the way around. i’ve already had one contractor offer to write me a receipt for far more than i would pay (in order to rip off the insurance company). nuts to that. i just want a fair deal. fingers crossed, i’ve actually heard from another contractor that my insurance co is supposed to be fair. hoping it’s true.

Shut down the bases throughout the south, stop all the pork going to treasonous states and really start applying the 14th amendment for the good of people instead of the judicially created corporate persons.

So good to see you here again; I was concerned for you. Sorry about the roof and damages. Sharpen your wits for the insurance adjuster, selise. They’ll do all they can to convince you the total damages do not exceed your deductible, or very little above it. (heh,heh; I can just hear you now if that turns out to be the case.)</p> Hey, Selise!! So good to see you here again; I was concerned for you. Sorry about the roof and damages.

I should correct myself and say the lines were hanging at a precipitous angle, but I told that story for your benefit– I hope. Because sometimes I feel women get shortchanged by utilities companies and the like, and if you feel you need support, please tell, and I bet the whole of FDL will have a suggestion or two.</p> Thanks selise.
