The insurance company may raise the premium for Matt's insurance
and get all the money back they pay out for his claim. This is the
game they play.
If they do not treat Matt right by paying what he deserves why stay
insured with them and let them get all their money plus more back?
A good insurance company will not only treat Matt right to pay
out enough to make Matt happy. They may even keep the premium unchanged
instead of punishing Matt. There is a huge difference between a good
and a bad insurance company. It's always a good idea to quickly drop
off from a bad one and switch to another, hopefully a better one.
This helps to drive the bad one out of everyone's way.
Yes, I agree if they treat Matt right and if he is happy then stay
insured with them. Obviously it seems that's not the case now.
