Okay, I'll petition Sharon Jones to rework "Taxes": "What if we all/Stopped paying insurance?"

Holy shit.

SHIT!
This is why I can't come home.

I have Farmer's too- The increases are earily similar. I called Farmer's and after much back and forth with them, they told me that if I become a "preferred" customer, I could get a reduction. All it took was a call from my agent to get the "preferred" status. They ended up knocking $1,000 off the bill. While $3,900 is a lot for insurance, it's still cheaper than $5,000.

Greedy douchemooks.

I can't get Farmers insurance at any price.
Posted by: Ray | 17 September 2007 at 10:51 PM
Ouch. I'm counting my blessings.
Posted by: Adrastos | 18 September 2007 at 08:44 AM
Francis, I called my agent and tried that, and they said I was in the "ultra premium" tier, and they can't do any better than this.
They also said that other than the FAIR plan, they didn't know of anybody writing insurance in Orleans parish.

My 2007 premium with Farmers was over $6,200, up from about $2400 in 2006.
Your premium with Farmers is just about what I am now paying to FAIR.
Posted by: wintermute | 18 September 2007 at 12:59 PM
That ain't shit.
2005 Farmers - $2400
2006 Farmers - $4000
2007 Farmers - $11,000
So, 2007 Fair Plan - $5,000
Posted by: Paul S. Pierce | 18 September 2007 at 04:44 PM
Paul, you seem to be the winner so far. My FAIR plan quote was $5300, and that's with lower liability coverage.

Insurance companies from hell have an open check book. FYYFF
Posted by: Marco Romano | 18 September 2007 at 06:04 PM
AIG is writing in the parish, I just signed up with them, it was around $5500K. Also after great effort I got a quote for Republic for similar amount, but with less coverage.

Called State Farm 2 days ago for quote on transferring auto & renters from IL to LA. Didn't hear back, so called agent-to-be today to follow up. Problem is I called 2 hrs after 11am -- the time they stopped writing policies because of this pseudo-storm. So everything I own and that I still owe money for is conveniently temporarily uninsured. nice. real nice.
