Over a satellite photo?!

[sport]

Where is the effing photo? The title reads that there is one. So where is it?

Insurance companies take money from people each month.
And the companies work very, very hard to never provide any value in return. Why should they pay for a claim? It would cut into the executive bonuses.

Liberty, Biberty...as their commercial states.

They say that homeowners’ insurance costs almost as much as some mortgage payments in Florida.

This thread is worthless without pic.

The real issue is business can’t make money in Soviet California. So they are working around the regulations so they can make a profit.

I hate that jackass and his emu

Gee... California becomes more and more dangerous, because of the political leadership.

Californians blame insurance companies because they want to make money, which the insurance companies are designed, and required, to do.

It is incredibly stupid.

Yes, and they are all ESG.

I cannot find a single insurance company of any size that is NOT.

What is the photo?

So you can now sue to force a business to do business with you?

PRETTY UNCOMPLICATED ROOF, as far as we can see.

[Az Joe]

I got dumped by two home insurance companies, one in December 2023 because they were quitting the state (had them for many years) and one (State Farm) in January 2024 because they said my roof was sub par. I finally got Progressive and three weeks later they said they would boot me off in 45 days if I didn't put a new roof on. So, I got a new roof ($14,000). Last week I got my new escrow statement and new monthly payment for 2025. I've had the house for 10 years and the payment never went up more than a few percent each year to make up for any shortages in the escrow account. Occasionally it even went down a percent or two.

MY NEW MONTHLY PAYMENT FOR 2025 IS NOW 14% HIGHER!!!

WTH?!!!!!

What’s the logic here? If the claim is that insurance companies are making massively unfair profits, why would they cancel the very policies that are making them those big bucks?

[Lazamataz]

What’s the issue?

[God luvs America]

“’Driven by a desire to maximize profits, property casualty insurance companies, including Defendants, have engaged in a troubling trend of dropping California homeowners’ insurance policies like flies,’ Badin’s lawyers wrote. “

How are they maximizing profits by dropping policies...minimizing losses? Perhaps...

Liberty will eventually leave the market in Kalifornia as they’ve left writing new auto insurance policies in the craphole state of NY. Insurance companies are for profit entities and when states enact laws, or worse yet in the craphole of NY, refuse to enforce laws (such as not arresting thugs for stealing cars or cutting out catalytic converters or allowing people- especially illegals- to drive without insurance with little to no punishment then having to pay the claims or medical expenses of those insured) they are going to stop doing business before going out of business....
