Yes, the DOI will become a “voice activated system” along with other government agencies due to the current enviorment. We expect our government to operate lean & mean. Why should the DOI be any different? As a 20+ year indenpendent broker in California, this sucks, but challenges across the board fit into that catagory as well. Let’s buckle down & take care of our valued clients & show the powers that be that we’re different that other industries. Then let’s request the funding that we deserve. I’m very proud to be an independent insurance broker.
I have been licensed for 30 years, the cost of license has risen almost 300% and to obtain personal service because of changes, one is on the phone for at least
45-50 minutes to speak to a live voice.
Will this agency become a voice activated
system or computer generated along with
other State and Government agencies?
It’s great that they are slimming down and becoming more cost efficient. But at what cost? Customer service, quality, enforcement? Many state insurance departments are self-funded so they cost the state nothing. However, they generate lots of revenue. So why cut back and reduce an Agency that doesn’t cost the state anything but does generate lots of revenue while performing an important public service? Now that they’re eliminated the fat maybe they should expand and add more muscle to do even more good.
