Denied renters insurance!!!!!............

And, the reason is, because we have snakes. No, I'm not kidding. Apparently if someone were to see we have snakes it could cause mental anguish. They would purposely break into our house and steal our stuff to get back at us. Apparently they are a liability, and people can get killed.

WTF!!!! Has anyone else experienced this with an insurance company? And what are some other places I could try?

I found it quite amusing, other than the fact I can ensure my stuff.

I've heard of it before, gotta go with a different company unfortunately.

I didn't mention my snakes on my renter's insurance - I don't remember if I was even asked to list animals - mine is as a rider on my car insurance (Traveler's).

Wow that is rediculous.

I don't mention mine.

Well, I can't seem to help to mention mine. Every time I'm in a conversation with someone, it's the first words to come out of my mouth after hello, "Guess what my snake did!" lol.

They are still new for me, and I love talking about them. I'm trying to get into the habit of realizing, not everyone wants to hear about my snakes. lol. This being one of those times.

The lady did tell me to gather some information on them, to show her they aren't an aggressive species, since a 12 ft. anaconda seems to come to her mind. At least she is trying to work with me. Must not be the first time she's had a complaint.

Keep it to yourself next time!

And, don't feel bad, someone crashed into my property causing about $3K in damage and his insurance company won't cover the damage because "their client had a sudden unforseen medical emergency" and is "therefore not responsible for the damage."

I checked with my insurance company, and my lawyer, and they both tell me that insurance companies in Massachusetts no longer have to cover damages resulting from unforseen medical situations while driving.

Gee I wonder if anyone in this state will ever have another accident that ISN'T the result of an unforseen medical condition? I know I won't. Sorry officer, I had an unforseen medical condition, can I go now?

I use Allstate for my car insurance as well as renters. They won't cover the snakes. BUT, they are covering all my AP cages and my thermostats/heaters. So, better than nothing.

I have State Farm and they didn't give a crap.

We were denied last year. But at first it wasnt for our snakes it was for one of our dogs. They thought she was dangerous and then started asking about other animals we had. I wasnt going to say anything but my son riley blurted out you want to see my snakes lol. So I know how you feel
