Shocking: “It was discovered insurances dont like to pay out!”
Whenever you enter a claim it is either “within your franshise”, “not covered” or “not accepted”.
In 80% van de gevallen is het omdat het ongeval niet voldoet aan de definitie van een arbeidsongeval. De andere 20% is het te wijten aan het slachtoffer zelf door geen medewerking te verlenen aan het onderzoek van het ongeval. Ik spreek uit werkervaring bij één van de grootste verzekeraars in België …
I still have the 10 euro check that was all that I received from when I fucked my back on the jobsite. I will never ever cash it, and instead I framed it as a reminder that insurance companies thrive through fucking as many people over as they can.
Het is de job van de verzekeraar om uw premie te innen en er alles voor te doen dat hem nooit ne cent moet uit betalen.
