madcarper 0 Posted February 20, 2014 ok I feel for the people and businesses affected by the floods, but why should I or anyone else who has a house or business be expected to cough up more money for insurance when my house and business has just about no chance of ever being flooded. surely people must realize if they choose to live on a floodplain or beside a nice river they can be flooded and therefore should pay for insurance accordingly or be prepared to lose out. this is only going to get worse with population growth and so called global warming I bet the shareholders don't take a hit though. fecking robbing feckers.

That's just how insurance rolls I'm afraid dude. rather that's how insurance companies would like it to roll. My car was stolen 4 years ago but the immobiliser killed the engine the next two streets down. By the time I got there from work the police had loaded it on to a wagon and shipped it to the insurance accredited garage who decided it would cost £4500 to put right and as my premeium was already £3200 I let them scrap it. Only damage to put right was a new ignition. No other damage was present. Thieving Ba%&ards. OOOhhhh and the car was an x-reg corsa 1.0 litre valued at £1800 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My son's had that happen to him, stolen car two streets away which cost a packet in release fees etc. Don't harbour the notion that insurance is fair or customer orientated-it's a big business with more than just the ear of government to allow it to operate the way it does.
