    ask anyone in Christchurch about insurance.

    What people dont get is that insurance is two separate and distinct businessses. the first is the one that entices you in with how lovely and friendly and delightful they are, then rapes your wallet for premiums. The other business is that of delaying or minimising or avoiding altogether, the responsibiliities that the first business has said they will look after.

    It is pure evil but a mostly necessary one.

    Your grasp of insurance is on par with your spelling.
    Most of the complaints coming out of Chch are to do with EQC, which is naught to do with insurance companies.

    Notwithstanding that, if you don't like it, don't buy it.

    The worst, most intractable, biggest arseholes I deal with on a day to day basis are from insurance companies. Typlically from the IAG, NZI, State etc vein.

    I actually now have a pretty reasonable grasp of insurance and the interesting relationship with EQC.

    I stand by my experience, if not my speeling.

    This is our Vietnam, son, if you aren't here, you don't know.

    I don't have mates who are panel beaters? How would I achieve that...?
