Hello Games ‏@hellogames Dec 28

BAD NEWS! Had a 'hilarious' call with insurer yesterday. Small print is if you are in a flood risk zone, you are not insured for flooding :(

    @ashtonraze @hellogames It's just strategy number one they pull as a lot will give up at that point, saving them the effort/cash.

    @ElPrezAU @hellogames Yup. It'll be gruelling and headache-inducing but don't accept it as a final answer.

    @hellogames Double check if your area is (was!) classed as a risk zone. Also check if they charged you a premium for being in a flood area.
