Well I believe that communication is finally starting to take affect. In addition to this blog now having been read by tens of thousands of people and that number is growing every day........... I now have a new statistic to keep track of!!
Two people who contacted me while their cases/claims were still active have settled with Fidelity National Title. And the good news for this blog is that in both cases they were offered substantially more money by signing a gag order - that is an agreement to not discuss the particulars of their case - than if they did not. Needless to say I did not press them for more information - their communication was merely a thank you and stating they could no longer participate by telling their stories.
So although we cannot all benefit from their experiences other than what may already be posted on this blog - the good news is apparently (hopefully) Fidelity National Title is starting to listen and perhaps - just perhaps - is treating their clients with more respect than I feel they treated me.
Wow - Fidelity National Title will do anything to shut us up!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo let me get this straight. Fidelity National Title is offering claimants more money than they normally would - if the claimants agree to keep their mouths shut?? Just another way to conquer us, their clients, by underhanded devious methods to hide behind their huge corporate structure. Shame on you for even implying that you condone this practice!
DeleteI understand your anger. And I would truly prefer that Fidelity National Title deal honestly and with integrity in dealing with claims - at least that is the way I wish my own claim had gone.
ReplyDeleteI guess I am a little gun shy knowing that they have bottomless pockets to fight these claims rather than pay them - I am happy to hear that it appears that this blog is starting to have some affect and hopefully I will be able to continue with providing communication that aids everyone who is forced to make a claim that requires Fidelity National Title to protect their real estate investment.
Sounds like freedom of the press, censorship and restricting access to information is alive and well. Job well done by the Senior Claims Counsel department. Thumbs up for Fidelity.
ReplyDeleteWell put. You are right - score one in Fidelity's corner but hopefully we are still reaching a lot of people with this blog and helping them protect their interests in their real estate - as in my experience - it is not done by Fidelity National Title Insurance Company as the insurer of the property - it appeared that Fidelity only protected - their bottom line.
ReplyDeleteWhen a claim occurs, the insurance company will begin collecting information in an attempt to reduce the value of the claim. These tactics are why insurance companies have record breaking profits each year. The unfortunate circumstance is insurance companies are represented by some of the most tenacious and experience defense attorney's within the legal industry. These attorney's are experts at holding up claims and forcing plaintiffs to settle less.
ReplyDeleteWell said. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the news towards to insurance companies
