What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? Washington
Purchased old (circa 1900) house end of July with commitment and payment for homeowner's insurance, as per mortgage requirement, from Farmer's Insurance. Two weeks after closing Farmer's advised that owing to prior burglary claim two years prior in different city, different state they would not insure house unless we insured autos with them also.
We switched auto coverage only to have them send us cancellation of homeowner's coverage and refund check, effective November 3. Letter states that paint on south side of house is defective.
Some truth to this -- though temporary repairs have been made to our satisfaction to tide house over until next summer when it can be washed, scrubbed, etc, & totally repainted.
We obtained mortgage owing to this insurance. Can they "commit" and then retract? Can they "bait" with auto insurance only to "change their mind" afterwards?
I filed complaint with insurance commissioner's office, but that will be weeks in the advisory, apparently, and have since learned that homeowner's insurance has become a bear, for a variety of reasons.
Yikes! Advice?
