I Hate Insurance Companies!

Well, doesn’t everyone? I recently filed two home owners insurance claims and they were both denied because the “evidence doesn’t support the claims”. What in the world??? The first claim was for water damage related to a pipe that froze and burst in the bathroom. The insurance company says that they can find no proof that a pipe burst and they “think” we had a slow leak which would not be covered. They say they have a picture of the offending pipe but when I asked them to describe it, they started describing something outside. Needless to say I demanded that they return and do another investigation and actually take a picture within the bathroom!
The second claim was water damage from flooding. The water came into our bedroom and damaged the carpet and created mold. Well, the insurance company doesn’t feel that it was flood related damage but cannot explain how the damaged occurred then. But they are the experts and they can tell when stories don’t add up. We are paying $50.00 a month for a company to tell us we are lying and submitting fraudulent claims?!?! This has me so steamed that I am very far from Zen right now. I guess I am naive but I thought that an insurance company might be able to weed out the true and rightful claims. HA!
