You must have told them your company wouldn't reinsure you...

Nope, I know a little something having been a licensed agent in Ca. They all
asked why I was shopping. I told them that I was new to the state and that
my current insurer couldn't do business there. Trouble is the vast majority
of people in the insurance business have the brains and morality of a shark.

For example, when a man clobbered my near-new Caddie his insurer quickly
agreed to pay to fix my car but when I asked where they'd prefer I rented a
car while that was happening I was told "That's not our policy". I replied
"Fine, I'll rent a Caddie from Hertz and sue your client." they had a change
of heart. Then they tried to badger me into accepting a rent-a-wreck instead
of a comparable car, only relenting when I mentioned my lawyer. Worst of
all most "insurance" people see nothing dishonest about their behavior,
proving something I guess.

And then there's Allstate ....
