A information story caught my consideration as a result of I maintain studying quotes by politicians that the Florida insurance coverage market has circled. Perhaps Florida’s politicians are afraid of what could occur within the November elections. The story by Jeff Deal of Motion 9 Information, ‘What They’re Doing is Simply Rotten’: Householders Declare Shock Insurance coverage Value Them Hundreds, acknowledged partially:
Ewing’s insurance coverage firm, Farmers Insurance coverage even pulled out of Florida and one other insurance coverage firm known as Slide took over 86,000 Farmers insurance policies and tens of hundreds extra insurance policies from different corporations.
Ewing mentioned, ‘The speed that they needed was astronomical.’
Slide despatched him a discover letting him know his renewal could be round $3400 which is sort of 4 occasions the quantity of his previous Farmers coverage. Mike Ewing declined the supply and in July even obtained a discover of cancellation from Slide. However a month after cancelling, his data present Slide Insurance coverage nonetheless went to his mortgage firm with a brand new coverage and requested the cash from his escrow account and his mortgage firm despatched it.
‘Everyone in Florida, I feel at this level, is combating insurance coverage and for an organization to swoop in like this and do what they’re doing is simply rotten,’ mentioned Ewing.
What do our elected representatives and insurance coverage regulators consider that?
