Michael we all agree a good agent will make a bad company bearable. Your agent does not set rates,issue policies, or pay claims and right now their rates are high, they are being slammed in the courts, and they have been sanctioned for not paying claims. Sorry
District Managers. Who the hell needs District Managers in 2006? Farmers is the only company to have a District Manager. Or does State Farm and Allstate have them too? That must take lots of money out of agents pockets.
I am gonna be rich! My monthly \”service fee\” only shows up on my billing statement, not on my policy dec page. I guess they have been lying to me all along about how much I am paying for my insurance!
As a former FIG agent I used to get a share of the monthly service charge. Regardless of this silly lawsuit I thought sometimes we should have paid the customer for letting us bill them monthly – other times it worked fine. Same old at every company – some people pay their bills and some don\’t but the problems are always caused by the agent (in the opinion of the customer and the company\’s management)
Anyway I ramble so will go home and drink a beer to unwind.
Patty: Maybe you should work a bit harder at the Pleasonton SC, and quit your Bit@hing. Or is this easier than work? Perhaps you can sue FIG if they were to restrict your internet access, yeah, that should work in CA !
If you don\’t like the company, move on…(as long as you fit through the door)
Farmers apparently has the same theory of truth that the Bush Adminstration has, that if you believe something to be true, that it obviously must be (therefore, all other evidence can and must be disregarded – WMD anyone?). Using a basic insurance regulatory search program, I found CA DOI Notice CA-IA 5-15-96 Amendment to Prior Approval Rate Application that addresses installment fees. These fees are considered attachments to rate filings. I as and the DOI confirms that installments are premium. I can empathize that the disclosures may have been on the wrong piece of paper, but unless the installment charges were filed, Farmers evaded the regulatory rate approval process by charging an unapproved fee.
