because then you would be eliminating jobs in the processing of the mail.

although it could also be because their identity system is total poo poo

this is the correct solution, though geico is cheaper for me and so i also have to print something every six months. (geico does, in fact, have an app for this, but again, lol at handing my unlocked phone to a cop)

e: apparently they will mail if i specifically request it. :rolleyes:

its like $800. if you have apple care and are really polite and ask to speak to the manager theres a dece chance theyll cut it in half (speaking from experience here). if youre mega lucky they might comp it

Basically, it's hard to know which ones are total shitholes until you actually have to claim something. Statefarm has good reviews and PEMCO the local insurer in Washington increased their premiums by like 20%. I don't think they are worth that much more than Statefarm.

the more expensive a printer the more chance there is i guess..
