[StBernard] Picketing results...

[Westley Annis]

   Well, I didn't get all I wanted, however, they increased my coverage "C"
(external non house stuff) to it's max, and gave me more on the external
stuff so as to eat up my deductible without cutting into what little they
have to pay. they gave me a little more on the house, have to get a
contractor to get out to my house and write up an estimate on roof, sofit
and facia, ANY TAKERS? Any estimates that go over what they have offered,
they will pay further, because they are aware of the rising cost of supplies
and labor and don't want me back. HOWEVER, my biggest victory, I have been
allowed to claim all of the content s of my attic. That means I get all of
those inflatable snowmen, santas, easter bunny, pumpkins, x-mas lights,
tree, and crap I no longer used but never threw away AND my bid ass CD
collection...I put up before I left, about 4000. So, I lost it on one thing,
but will get it back elsewhere-and they found 1100.00 more dollars I was
entitled to...
   Like I said, bring the fight to their front door and then they
listen...Murphy, insurance, doesn't matter....the all mighty bottom line and
public image does. Have a local lady's name now at Lexington & AIG- was a
New Orleans girl years ago, been here for 11 years. I say take the fight to
them and put it on your terms, it feels so good, and I didn't even need the
press to show up.
 
                     Did I mention, Allstate was in Northbrook, Illinois?
