Overhaulin'

Can I still appeal what happened on my car insurance?

During the December Blizzard Massachusetts had my car slid down a hill and hit a curve and they had to total my car.... Now since I was the only driver I am 50% at fault for this accident Anyway a lot of people have been telling to appeal it as an act of god. Problem is I have been too busy trying to get a new car that it went past 30 days from the surcharge notice date and I need to know if I can still appeal this. I am a safe drive and I was going maybe 10 mph down this icy hill when my car slid on the ice...Please any help would be appreciated

  1. It's not an act of God that you were driving. It's not an act of God that you chose to drive in bad weather. God created the weather. You chose to try to drive in it. There's nothing to appeal. It's like finding a cliff, jumping off it, and saying God made the cliff, so it's not your fault.
  2. Vipassana hit the nail on the head. Flooding is another example of an event insurance doesn't count as an act of god because it is a forseable event. You knew it was slippery and you knew there was a hill. If you appeal it will likely just be a waste of your time.
  3. You were only 50 percent at fault? Who else was involved?
  4. I consider you 100% at fault. If the streets were icy you shouldn't have been driving on them.
  5. 50% at fault? Did the ins. company tell you God was the other 50% at fault? Ok, bad joke (sorry :(
  6. For car insurance the fastest way to get a low quote is do a policy comparison. Be sure to choose the same coverage amounts, you can get an accurate quote to compare against others. Use the same city/state, auto make/model, mileage and driving history to ensure you get an apples to apples comparison.
