LG - As a retired Personal Lines Underwriter for 23 years, I couldn't agree with you more!!!! Unfortunately, the true art of "underwriting" is no longer being used by the majority of Insurance Companies. In order to save them expenses, they have replaced the Underwriters who used intelligence, judgment, and their knowledge, with computer programs that "screen" all risks based upon numbers - including credit scoring!!!!! Even as an Underwriter, I was totally against Credit scoring as there are too many circumstances BEYOND THE CONTROL OF THE INSURED that can affect a "bad" credit score. The insurance companies are going to pull out all the stops and use millions of dollars to prevent the elimination of credit scoring and we all know in politics - money talks!!!
