      We had a hailstorm damage our buildings on May 21st of 2024. Claim was made to our insurance company on May 22nd of 2024. The adjuster came out and looked at the damage soon after (Last week of May). After receiving the report from the insurance agency, our roofing/siding contractor disagreed upon the amount of damage that the storm caused. I then called them and requested a revisit to create a new report to include all the damage that done by the storm. They scheduled a revisit for July 7th. My contractor and the field agent met me there to go over the claim. He (the Insurance field agent) agreed that there was more damage than initially appeared. I waited to hear back from the Insurance company on the claim, until July 29th of 2024, when i sent our Agent an email requesting a status update. I received an automatic reply saying the agent was out of town until August 8th. On August 16th I again emailed the agent requesting a status update. She replied that the claim was "inline and ready for review." So, I replied okay. I then waited another month, until September 16th, and sent her another message asking for an update. As of today (September 30th, 2024) I still have not gotten a response or an update on our claim. It has been 131 days since the claim was filed, with no real response or action been taken to assist us with the claim on our buildings.

      I am an Agent who brokered a policy through AmMod. My client had their bank account compromised, we updated the payment information through the companies website. We show the update was completed on 8/7/24 and have a screen shot for proof of this. Screenshot has PII so I will not upload it to this claim. Their system did not update until a full month later after a second nsf was processed on the clients former bank account. The client was cancelled due to this second nsf. We attempted to rewrite the business after speaking to a rep from the company since the nsf was due to an issue in their system. Due to the cancellation we needed underwriting approval to process the rewrite. While waiting for underwriting approval we called a few times for updates and were told it was being worked on and we would be updated once they were done. On 9/24 I spoke with an agent who stated that there was a 5 business day wait for it to be processed through UW and that 5 days started on 9/18 when an underwriter had put a note in, instead of the 9/16 date that the policy was sent in for review and would be done by EOD 9/25. I called today 9/26 and was told that it was declined on 9/18 and they would not override it as they had no proof what we were saying was true even though we had sent the screenshot in showing it was updated a month before their system did it. I asked why I was not informed of this during my phone call 2 days prior and the agent stated they didn't know. I asked what had happened to the screenshot we sent in that an agent had put a note in about on 9/16. Agent stated they showed no screenshot attached to the note nor did she show the screenshot being sent to UW. She stated there was nothing they could(would) do for the client and that it was declined and they would not allow us to write through them. Their system has caused undue stress on our client as well as putting a cancellation on her insurance history and causing her to go without insurance for 3 weeks.

      to determine what documentation is needed for the proof of repairs to ensure that the current

      I have a current policy for renters insurance via eRenterPlan that’s unwritten by American Modern and have had said policy since moving into my current residence in April of 2023. Per my policy, I have a $250 deductible for food spoilage/ food cost due to electrical problems with refrigeration. I had to have my refrigerator/freezer replaced by my apartment maintenance staff after initial attempts to fix the one I had were unsuccessful. I lost $790 worth of food in my fridge/freezer and incurred $400 in food costs having to eat out with my son for several days. (I don’t have a car so food delivery costs incurred and are included in total as well.). My total loss was $1190. Factoring in the deductible I’m owed $940. I filed my claim 13 days ago. After missing the one and only call I received from my assigned claim agent (that was never followed up with any email nor accompanied by a voicemail or a text). I promptly returned the call on the same day, No answer no reply. Since then I’ve left daily voicemails for my agent. No answer. No call back. Two days ago, I called the main phone number for American Modern and after waiting on hold an hour I was given my agent’s supervisor’s name and number when the customer service agent couldn’t get ahold of either. Left him a voicemail. Nothing. I called back and after another long wait I was put on hold as that customer service agent tried to contact both my claims specialist and her supervisor like the previous employee had tried to. But instead of getting another human back on the line I was transferred to a customer survey after another 10 minutes on hold. My credentials for some reason aren’t allowing me to log into either company’s online portal with policy number or claim number, (eRenterPlan or American Modern.)

      I filed a claim for a stolen bike a few months back. The service took incredibly too long and the process was confusing and the communication was seriously lacking. I was working with Kendra M***** and was rarely given updates without having to ask for them. Now, post receiving the funds, I have been trying to get some sort of paperwork with the details of the claim (what was covered, what was paid, and deductible information) for my records. Kendra has been dodging my emails and calls and claims she has been trying to call me, but I have zero missed calls and zero voicemails. I have emailed her numerous times over the last week with absolutely no response. Incredibly unprofessional company and will not be continuing with them when my policy is over.

      On August 1, 2024 American Modern Insurance cashed my check for payment on a policy. On August 2, 2024 they withdrew the money from my checking account (EFT). Upon finding the mistake I called my agent. She was told that they would write a check in 3 weeks. So they say they wrote a check on August 21, 2024 and mailed it but as of September 11, 2024 I still have no check. I was also told today that they could write another check at which time I told them that was totally unacceptable. When i called today they said it would be 5-10 business days to process the refund and possibly another 5-10 on my banks end to receive in my account. Which is totally fictitious! Please help! This is one of the biggest scams I've ever heard of. They have my routing number and bank information. That's how they withdrew the money. Put the money back in my account the same way you took it out! Thanks for your help.

      I am a general contractor, owner of a company involved with an insurance claim through American Modern Insurance Group. My client is a policy holder with them. We were assigned a claim agent over 4 months ago for a roof repair that was damaged by heavy wind during a storm. Since the loss, the agent has been refusing to return phone calls to both myself/my company and the policy holder as well. The policy holder has spoke to management above the agent with nothing done with them involved as well. The agent we have been assigned is Laura S****, Cincinnati Ohio. Multiple attempts via phone and email have been made with no response. This is restricting us from properly continuing the repairs needed on the property.

      Being active duty military, families transfer locations every 3-4 year on average. In early June of 2024 my family and I departed our home in ********** where we PCS’d to ******. Moving to ****** was no easy task as it was my husband, my self, our 3 year old and 2 year old. We were without our personal belongings from May until July. We slept on air mattresses, stayed in hotels, and traveled on a Ferry. Once we made it to ****** in July we still needed to wait for personal belongs to show up and a home to be ready for us. By the end of July we were finally getting mail at our new place. It wasn’t until early September I saw a piece of mail from American Modern insurance that my homeowner’s policy had lapsed and it was canceled. As soon as I saw this I called them. American Modern informed me that they did not get paid so they canceled my homeowners policy. I explained to them that we were active duty and had been traveling. I didn’t understand why they canceled my policy since my mortgage lender reached out to them. In 2015 I purchased my home in ***** with a ** ****, it has had multiple mortgage lender changes and insurance always moved with it. August 2023 ***** ***** gave my loans to ******* ********. In July 2024 ******* ******** tried to reach out to American Modern on 2 separate occasions to make sure they knew who had the loan which was on July 16th and July 31st. American Modern told me that typically they will re-instate a policy if it’s within 30 days but since I was past 30 days they wouldn’t. They also said they will not insure my property because of the location. They having been insuring my property for 10 years. American Modern confirmed that my mortgage company DID contact them but chose to do nothing about it. After all that frustration I was left with an uninsured home. Although my email was on file they never once emailed me about the situation. I am now paying a policy that is 3 times as much. This was such an unexpected change.

      This company is awful! I do not recommend their services. At the end of May I had a soft clog which flooded my downstairs and I had water damage coverage and they denied my claim saying it was a sewer or drain backup when that is not what it was. It was an overflow big difference. They were not willing to help at all and all demolition to prevent black mold and repairs had to be paid out of pocket. They are useless!

      Dear *** ********,

      I am writing in reference to the above claim and inquiry received in our office on September 9, 2024.
      American Modern Property and Casualty Insurance Company (the “Company”) appreciates the
      opportunity to respond to the Better Business Bureau regarding the complaint filed by *****
      ********.

      The Company received notification of the above claim on May 29, 2024, with a reported date of loss
      of May 28, 2024. The adjuster spoke with the insured the same day and explained the claims process.
      The adjuster also assigned an independent adjuster to inspect the insured property. The inspection
      revealed damages from a water backup throughout the home. The plumber's report diagnosed that
      the insured had a soft clog on the main water line. The insured's policy specifically excludes water
      backup through sewer or drains. Therefore, there is no coverage for the loss that occurred. A
      coverage decision letter was mailed to the insured explaining the reason for the denial. Additionally,
      the adjuster called and left a voicemail on June 20, 2024, to explain the reason for the denial.

      Upon further review, based on the inspection and the reports provided, the Company asserts the
      above claim was adequately reviewed and properly denied according to the policy provisions. Should
      you require additional information or wish to discuss further, please contact me via email at
      *******************.

      Dear *** ********,

      I am writing in reference to follow-up inquiry received in our office on September 19, 2024. American
      Modern Property and Casualty Insurance Company (the “Company”) appreciates the opportunity to
      respond to the Better Business Bureau regarding the complaint filed by ***** ********.

      In the follow-up response, the insured advises of an “exception” received in the denial letter for her
      claim. However, the exception noted specifically states the coverage exists “unless the loss is
      otherwise excluded.” As the policy's language excludes water backup or overflows, as outlined
      further down in the coverage decision letter under “Section 1 Exclusions” that was sent to the
      insured, the claim was correctly denied. Following is the specific language to provide further
      clarification.

      • Exception To c.(6) Unless the loss is otherwise excluded, we cover loss to property covered
      under Coverage A or B resulting from an accidental discharge or overflow of water or steam
      from within.

      • Section 1 Exclusions Paragraph 3:
      b. Water which:
      (1) Backs up through sewers or drains; or
      (2) Overflows or is otherwise discharged from a sump, sump pump, or related equipment

      The Company asserts the above claim was adequately reviewed and properly denied according to
      the policy provisions. Should you require additional information or wish to discuss further, please
      contact me via email at *******************.

      This was an overflow, not a sewage backup of any kind.

      Dear *** ********,

      I am writing in reference to follow-up inquiry received in our office on September 27, 2024. American
      Modern Property and Casualty Insurance Company (the “Company”) appreciates the opportunity to
      respond to the Better Business Bureau regarding the complaint filed by ***** ********.

      In our previous response, we provided the language from the policy, which excludes the damages to
      *** ********** property. The damages were the result of an excluded cause of loss; therefore, the
      claim was properly denied. If further clarification is needed, *** ******** should contact her adjuster
      or the adjuster's supervisor to discuss.

      Sincerely,

      It was not made clear that I had to have an additional coverage for an overflow not a back up when I got this policy and the services are very misleading. Although the company stated they do not cover my claim I am still very disappointed with their service and think it should be made public so others will be aware not to use this company.

      I have homeowners insurance with American Modern Insurance Company. We had a storm and my home was damaged. My wife and I had vacation plans out of the country and I spoke with the adjuster and told him to please wait for 1 week until I got home (Before submitting the claim) so I could give him receipts from contractors and fill him in on everything that was happening with the house. He came by when I was gone and submitted a claim and the insurance company and they cut me a check for $3,078.69 My bills from contractors add up to exactly $6,713.04, and we still don’t have any power run back to my shed yet. I did not deposit the check yet because I need to get ahold of my insurance company to have this adjusted. I have been calling 4 separate people (2 managers and 2 claims adjusters) for the past 3 1/2 weeks. I have left over 7 voicemails and sent them each 8 emails with all of my information. I have heard absolutely nothing… CRICKETS… I have been on the phone for hours to get through to an operator, only to be sent to someone’s voicemail. No one will speak with me at all. I am hoping BBB may be able to help get me in touch with someone to speak with. Fingers crossed ??
