help!!!!! I have a texas homeowners insurance policy. I alwo pay an additional scheduled personal property premium to cover my wedding ring. I had the ring appraised per request of my insurance agent and pay premium on this amount. My endorsement states Loss Settlement: Covered property losses are settled as follows" we will pay the amount shown for each scheduled article which is agreed to be the value of the article".
My ring consists of a band, center diamond and two side diamond baquettes. The center diamond has broken. I feel I should be paid the appraised amount for the whole ring and I will give them the ring. They are only willing to pay for a repalcement of the diamond. I have gone to 3 different appraisal firms and they are all quoting different amounts. My insurance agent said if the diamond had been lost or stolen they would pay for the entire amount. Since my policy does not state payment will be different depending on if it is lost or damaged I feel I am entiled to the full amount that I have been paying on all these years. The endorsement states " we insure against all risks of loss or damage to property described in this endorsement.
any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am ready to file a complaint with the insurance board.
