July 27 we awoke to several holes in the one even piercing our ceiling. I of course called my mortgage company that following Monday July 29. August 7 was American Insurance first time reaching out to me letting me know an adjuster has been issued to my claim. The adjuster came out on the 6th of August. The mortgage company said it would be 3-5 business days before they reached out. That was over two weeks before initial contact. The adjuster said anywhere from 5-10 business days and it would be settled. Well it’s been a total of six weeks with the holes in my roof still tarped. I haven’t heard any updates from the insurance company. The agent I was assigned to Dana R**** has not returned any of my four voicemails. I’m quite overwhelmed considering there’s mold in my attic that was pointed out by the roofers who gave an estimate. Also there’s animals crawling in the attic.Business response

We purchase a property located at **** ******** ***** a carwash. 4 days prior to closing the building was vandalized, however we were informed that there was insurance covered. Closing was delayed a month, because we would not close until we knew we were going to get an assignment of benefits. We were told by the receiver for the property that they were working on getting it but in the meantime we could draft an agreement that would allow us to speak with the insurance company handling the claim on behalf of the bank, and that all negotiations would be done with us, and all proceeds from the claim would come to us. 1. We had a hard time just obtaining the adjusters name, the receiver kept saying he wasn't sure who it was then came back and said he gave us the wrong name, eventually we got a copy of the policy and I called on my own and got the information 2. The adjuster does not communicate and has only communicated with us once and not beyond that. 3. We have asked for status our private adjuster has asked for status, 4. We were told we would get an assignment of benefits they waiting for it to be signed, which we later find out that this is not ever happening. If we had known that - there is no way we would have closed. We did not want the bank or the receiver handling the claim on our behalf we paid $507k cash for this building and prior to the vandalization it was operable and now we are stuck, and no one not even the bank is communicating with us in regards to the claim on the building and now we also have the city because there were code violations prior to the building being closed on that we are now having to expense out.Business response

My vehicle was delivered in conditions where damages were not immediately visible. It was only upon washing the car under proper lighting that I discovered extensive damage The trucking company responsible had evidently painted over and conducted bodywork on this area, concealing the damage from initial inspection. Delayed Delivery and Unjustified Demands: Despite the initial delivery date being scheduled for 06/09/2024, I did not receive my vehicle until 06/12/2024, three days later than agreed upon. During this time between 06/04/2024-06/12/2024, I received a call from the carrier stating that they had discovered additional personal items in the vehicle and demanded an extra $500 for delivery where I paid $400. This demand was made under threat of leaving both vehicles in a lot in *********** ** if I don't agree to pay the extra amount. I received this call on 06/08/2024 where I was unable to speak to ******** ********* express as they were closed on Saturday after 5:00 PM.Contractual Agreement and Non-Compliance:As per the attached contract, it explicitly states that carriers are not authorized to charge additional fees for personal items found in the vehicle. The contract stipulates that any such issues should be addressed before vehicle pickup, not after delivery. Despite this, the demand for extra payment was made unilaterally and under duress, violating the terms agreed upon.I can provide supporting evidence from the MyHyundai Blue Link team ***arding the locations where my vehicle was parked between June 4, 2024, and June 12, 2024, which may help identify where the repairs were attempted. However, to obtain this information, I am required to file a report indicating that my vehicle was lost or stolen, after which Hyundai will furnish the necessary details. I provided all the proofs where I messaged, called multiple times to the carrier where they neglected my calls, messages. I even provided all the detailed photos, vidoes, timestamps on when they were taken.Business response

Case #: ********
Great American Policyholder: ***** ***
Claim Number: *********
To Whom It May Concern:
This letter is to acknowledge receipt of the above captioned BBB complaint. Mr. ****** is seeking a
refund of $400 for fees he incurred for personal belongings that were hauled along with his vehicle.
These fees were charged by ***** **** a Great American policyholder. In review of the complaint, it
appears he is misdirecting the complaint to Great American instead of directly to ***** ***. Mr.
****** is not our policyholder, nor does he have a legal standing to present a claim directly against
***** ***’s cargo policy. The cargo policy we have with ***** *** is a first-party property policy
for cargo and would not respond to disputed fees being charged by ***** ***. Further, our
investigation of this claim reveals that ***** *** is disputing all of the other allegations of damage to
Mr. ******** vehicle presented in the BBB complaint. With respect to the $400 fee, we recommend
Mr. ****** direct his complaint to ***** ***.

My parked car was hit in June of 2024 and this was the insurance for the work truck that hit my vehicle. I filed a claim and was told I would be contacted within 24 hours. A week later no one contacted me. I called the number I was given for the person on my case, he never picked up. I called his supervisor and promptly received a call back. The person on my case, Rob B****, seemed upset that I contacted his supervisor, he stated, "Sorry I was not able to respond to your call within 20 minutes and that we typicality respond in 24 hours". I was calling his number that whole week. Its been 2 weeks since I filed the claim and they keep saying they are investigating to see who is responsible. I sent them pictures of the incident showing my parked car that was hit and a police event report. They still claim they are investigating and have not contacted the insured driver. I asked for a time frame for their investigation and was told it can take as much time as they need. I then asked what happens if they never get in contact with their insured driver. He told me to file a claim on my insurance. If that is the case, then its in the insured drivers interest to never call the insurance company and claim responsibility. I can't pay for something I did not do. They do not seem to want to pay me anything, beside being condescending and rude. I just want my car fixed, since I cannot legally drive it in damaged condition.Business response

Dear *** ********,
This correspondence is in response to a consumer complaint filed by ********** ******* related to a non-injury auto accident. The claim was first reported on June 6, 2024, and our investigation commenced. After a few voicemail exchanges, we spoke with *** ******* on June 12, 2024, and obtained his vehicle damage information.Our investigation requires speaking with the policyholder/driver. This step was delayed as the driver was hospitalized unrelated to this accident. However, we have completed the liability investigation and assigned an appraiser to meet with *** ******* and inspect the accident-related damage to his **** ****. It appears the appraiser was retained just prior to the filing of this complaint.
We anticipate an expedited resolution to this claims matter upon receipt of the finalized appraisal estimate.
We trust that this will resolve this matter.

The insurance company did not pay me full amount. See attached emails asking me to "enforce" the release to which I attached of 13000 over and over. The release did not indicate if it is US funds leaving it vague and ambiguous to which the law of Contra Proferentem applies. Only when I asked if the funds are in US as this company is based in the US did they then say it is 10000. But it is clearly documented in the emails they agreed to 13000. They had me sign a signed statement which I could not read the writing but the adjuster promised to send me a transcribed copy so in good faith I signed it as he kept reassuring me he wrote exactly what I said over and over. I have asked numerous times for a copy and you will see in the string of emails he promised to send to me along with the report, authorizations and pictures and to date he has not sent it. The way this claim has been handled is unethical. They played tactics to pressure me into signing the statement and first release to which I have a cooling off period and I was not thinking clearly and was under duress. It seems they think I am from ****** and of ethnic descent they can treat me this way and that I will just go away with whatever they want to do. I am filing a complaint and seeking the difference owed otherwise I will be seeking the full amount with similar injuries won in court. No one should be treated this way after suffering a horrific injury that will leave a permanent scar on my neckline where everyone can see and suffering an infection. I have to continue to figure out how to keep it covered because of the humiliation of what others have said to me about it. And now with summer, I cannot at all allow it under the sun which will make it worse. I am on antianxiety/depressant medication and now ********* due to the panic attacks I suffered as result of this. Thank you for your time.Business response

Dear *** ****:
This letter is sent on behalf of Great American E&S Insurance Company (“Great American”) in
response to a complaint you filed with the Cincinnati Better Business Bureau (“BBB”). As you
know, Great American is the insurer for ** ****** *** DBA ** **** (“** ****”). You
submitted a claim to ** **** on November 7, 2023, alleging you were injured on November 4,
2023, while using ** ****’s product (the “Claim”). Great American received notice of the Claim
on February 16, 2024. In compliance with ******** claims handling regulations, Great American
retained John D************, an adjuster with ********* Adjusters, a ******** licensed adjusting
firm to assist with the investigation of the Claim.
After a thorough investigation, Great American, through Mr. D************, engaged in
discussions with you to negotiate a settlement of the Claim. On April 12, 2024, you signed a full
and final release agreeing to release all claims against ** ****, Great American, and *********
Adjusters from any claims relating to the Claim in exchange for $10,000 ******** Dollars. Great
American mailed that settlement check to you on April 29, 2024.
Great American has reviewed the complaint you filed with the BBB in which you claim you did
not realize the settlement amount you agreed to was in ******** dollars and that you believe the
settlement amount is $13,000.
Great American has reviewed our records to address your concerns. On April 12, 2024, Mr.
D************ communicated via email the full and final release was attached for your signature
in the amount of “$10,000 CAD.” Within an hour, you responded “please find attached signed
document. Let me know what day cheque will be ready” confirming your agreement with the
settlement amount and terms. The full and final release also stated the settlement amount was
$10,000. The email and signed full and final release are attached as Exhibit A for your reference.
As noted above, the settlement check was mailed to you on April 29, 2024. For these reasons,
Great American will not be paying you the additional $3,000 CAD you have requested in your
complaint to BBB.
After reviewing all records and correspondence related to this claim, including your back-and-
forth settlement negotiations with Mr. D************, Great American also denies any allegations
that you were pressured during the negotiation process. Great American also denies any allegations
of unethical claim handling. The Claim was at all times handled in compliance with ********
regulations.
Great American understands that you have requested in your complaint to the BBB the statement
describing the Claim you signed during your interview with Mr. D************ on February 22,
2024. The statement, Privacy Policy Authorization Form, and photos you provided during the
interview are enclosed in Exhibit B per your request.
Great American is confident this communication addresses any confusion or miscommunication
you feel took place during the claim handling and settlement negotiation process.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint. For your reference, reasons for rejection are included below. The adjuster responded to my attached release of $13000. In his emails he said"than you for your confirmation that signed full and final release you completed is enforceable. We will have them issue payment right away". He acknowledged the release of $13000 several times. This is a dishonest and unethical practice to which I will pursue and warn others about. They also did not submit to me the transcribed statement. They sent the handwritten statement which I cannot read. The adjuster promised to submit to me the typed out version. Also they did not send me the pictures the adjuster took of me at that meeting. Instead he sent the pictures I took of myself that I sent them. None of these items have been resolved.

Hello *****, I couldn't find the tab to respond to your question. I only found this tab. We were in negotiation's back and forth via email. I updated the release and was at the amount of $13,000. When they kept asking me to "agree" and "enforce" the release several times, I attached the fully completed release of $13,000 to which then they said the cheque will be issued. The first release of $10,000 was not fully completed and also they acknowlege it was not agreeable and enforceable since they kept asking me to agree and enforce it. That is when I agreed to the $13,000 release and wrote it is enforceable to which they then responded it is enforceable and a cheque will be issued. Thank you, *****Business response

Dear BBB:
The customer’s complaint is incorrect. The customer agreed to settle her claim for a payment by our
company of $10,000. Our company has fulfilled its obligation under the agreement by sending the customer
a check for $10,000. The customer is now trying to re-open that agreement and seek more money. There
is no legitimate basis for her position. Great American will not be issuing additional settlement funds, and
this will be our final response.

Thank you for the opportunity to respond to *** ******** complaint, which was received in our office on

To clarify, the coverage provided by Great American Assurance Company (Great American) is not
homeowners insurance. Great American insured ******** **** ********** ******** (********) for
Mortgage Protection Insurance coverage under Policy *******, effective May 1, 2019, until October 1,
2023. ******** adds properties to the master policy when it is discovered the borrower (*** ******) did
not maintain the required homeowner’s insurance per the mortgage agreement. The property was added to
the master policy on August 1, 2023, under certificate #**********.
******** became part of *** ****** and the master policy with Great American ended on October 1,
2023. Certificate ********** continued until March 1, 2024 and was canceled. *** ****** maintains
their own Mortgage Protection Insurance for potential coverage for the ******** property. A review of
Great American’s records show premium for the coverage ended on March 1, 2024 when the coverage
ended. Great American does not show any payments for coverage after March 1, 2024 from ********.
The monthly premium was $9.44.
I called *** ****** on April 24th and April 29th to discuss the ******** policy. I left a message for a
return call. The number used was ###-###-####.
Based on the review of the information, Great American has not received premium after the cancellation
date of the coverage. With the loan moving from ******** to *** ******, contact with *** ****** to
review the loan/escrow balance would be appropriate as well as to review if *** ****** has provided
Mortgage Protection Insurance for the property.

Please see attachment for more details. GAIG issued a policy based off of an application, however you can see that the application was required in order to get the quote that I asked for. It feels very deceitful that a policy would be issued when I never received a quote, never received a response from the company, and that my application (that was required in order to get the quote) is being used as the evidence that I wanted the policy issued.Customer response
