ClmGui:
"I also feel it's important to respect other peoples desire to introduce themselves, and express themselves, as they alone see fit."
You do, indeed, have the right noted above. You also need to understand, and should since you are involved in "human behavorial study disciplines," that when one party chooses anonymity and the other party is completely open about who they are and what they do, there is going to be doubt and mistrust of the hiding party.
The reference to your forward slash key has to do with another poster who has repeated brought issues (the same ones over and over) to this site over which we, as field adjusters, have no control.
If you ever decide to publish something, make sure you have a really, really good editor.

ClmGui, I mean this in the most polite way possible, but judging from the questions you have asked you seem to know little or nothing about adjusting or the insurance business as a whole. Perhaps you should leave the how to guides to people who actually know something about it and have gotten that knowledge by actually doing it. I know I'd much rather read a how to build a deck book written by a carpenter or a cookbook written by a chef than by someone in the information/knowledge management field.
Just my 2 cents. |

What a crock from all this reading of the 17 pages of posting, I am wore out reading all of this stuff. We offer the following to ponder.
1. Will the plantiff attorneys please come forward, you know they will.
2. Will the software players please step forward, the plantiff attorneys will be taking your depositions during their discovery period.
3. Will the wreck your own carriers please step forward. It seems you are guilty of wagging the dog.
4. Will the flood loss claimants, please step forward. There are lots of people ready to hear from you all over again.
5. Will all of the agents that sold all of these policies step forward, you might have some potential E and O blunders to cover.
6. Will the looser adjusters please leave the industry, so the real journeymen adjusters have their jobs back.

I do not understand why we keep playing their games. I do not appreciate any form of censorship other than that I impose on myself. I do this by either turning off what I find objectionable or ignoring it.
I appreciate the site and therefore am not going to turn it off therefore I will do the latter and and ignore anything posted by CLMGUI or reCONman.
Let's get back to the original thread, that being NFIP's mess on the East Coast. |

There are enough issues at the present time. Why muddy the waters more, with lawyers, suits, accusations etc.
All NFIP is doing is attempting to clarify some issues that may have been misrepresented, mal-adjusted, or just a clear mistake.
Let us give them the opportunity to rectify those mistakes, settle the claims fairly and go on to the next event.
We all have made errors either in judgment, or interpretation of policy, or estimating. At least the NFIP is attempting to satisfy the claimants and have not closed the door on them. The final outcome is yet to be seen.
Possibly the file complaints, reviews, re-inspections and required supplements will allow this issue to pass within a reasonable time. (The 2004 Hurricane season is nigh)
The NFIP is the only source of flood insurance, and those that work flood, (Our comrades –in-arms), are dependent on this, so why bite the hand that feeds us?

Help offered for flood victims unhappy with insurance
Representatives of the National Flood Insurance Program have talked to more than 100 people at meetings in area.
BY CHRISTOPHER SCHNAARS
April 22 2004
HAMPTON - Nowadays, the flood insurance premiums for Virginia Melton's Buckroe condominium run about $700 a year.
She paid those premiums for 20 years, so when Hurricane Isabel dumped nearly 2 feet of water in her home, she figured her insurance would pay for the damage.
She was wrong.
The only damage covered was about $2,200 to replace her heat pump, and $1,000 of that money was her deductible. She said her insurance agent improperly wrote her flood policy, leaving her unprotected for most of the $25,000 of damage to her home.
On Wednesday, Melton got some answers. She went to the Northampton Community Center in Hampton, where representatives from the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the National Flood Insurance Program were available to help people unhappy with decisions on their flood-insurance claims.
"If they have any questions on their settlements, come down and see us," said Bill Lindsey, a FEMA spokesman.
By early Wednesday afternoon, about 35 people had been to the community center for help. On Monday, about 90 people went to a meeting in Poquoson for assistance. That prompted FEMA officials to schedule a second meeting there for April 29, Lindsey said.
The FEMA representatives include appraisers, crisis counselors and representatives from the State Insurance Commission and the Small Business Administration, which can provide loans to repair hurricane damage to businesses and homes. FEMA mitigation specialists also are available to help people learn how to prevent future flood damage.
The meetings are part of a review of the flood-insurance program that several U.S. senators sought to help hundreds of Isabel victims who haven't been able to return home more than seven months after the storm.
So far, the flood insurance program has processed more than 24,000 Isabel-related claims in six states and the District of Columbia. To date, 95 percent of those claims have been paid a total of nearly $405 million.
After meeting with FEMA representatives on Wednesday, Melton said she might get reimbursed for some of her damages or could get a refund of her insurance premiums.
"They told me what to do to get some help for her," said Melton's daughter, Jane Tuttle. "They answered some questions that no one has been able to answer."
