Hey, thanks! I hope to have it professionally installed on their dime, but we'll see. I'll probably have to pull and reset the base, it's intact, but it doesn't look good. I might be able to pour a larger tube around the existing one.
I have many thoughts on this, but won't say anything either. Glad I wasn't home I guess, cuz I probably would have lost my temper and beat them with the flagpole.
I just hope to heck it f**ked up their vehicle, which it probably did. ha ha.
Funny thing too, the plates on the vehicle are from Indiana? But with very spanish registered owners and drivers. But insurance is local? Strange setup, but glad there is insurance I guess.

They had insurance? Then why run? I hate that people don't understand how insurance works. Probably didn't have coverage on their own car and didn't give a shit about your house. Having local insurance with out of state is no big deal. I don't think it is supposed to work that way, but there are a lot of shady agents who will overlook stuff just for a sale.

Oh man ... bummer. Glad no one was hurt.

LPD called late this afternoon, my CD of crime scene photos is ready. I'll get them and post a few of them up. Should I post the pics of the perps?
-

Well, I went through a small version of hell to get the police report and crime scene photos, I guess since it's my property they damaged I'm not entitled to anything. I believe the PD doesn't like to give out the photos for fear of retaliation or something?
I'll get the pics and see what I've got to post.

You see people's pictures in the paper and stuff. Not to mention www.thesmokinggun.com is an entire website dedicated to publicly posting police reports and photos.
-
I'll have to review all the paperwork I signed to get this stuff. :)
-
You had to sign stuff just to get a police report? Or did you get more than that? Your insurance company should have been able to at least get a hold of the copy of the report for you; on their dime no less. Glad your claim is moving along though.

Going through the perps insurance, some crazy Viking insurance, who is part of Sentry Insurance. I didn't even ask them about he reports or photos, doing that all on my own. Yes, PD had me sign about 6 triplicates to get the report and photos and $21 cash of my own property as I see it. Such is life I guess.
I'll pick up the photos tomorrow. That took several days and multiple PD employees to get too.

I'm trying to remember who owns Viking for you, but I can't remember off the top of my head. It is basically the cheaper version of a bigger company. Sentry 21 insurance (you may have seen some of the commercials lately) is just the new name for AIG since they almost bankrupted the entire world. I believe that is the same one. Either way, it sounds like they are doing right by you so far.

No word from insurance, just a "Check" in the mail. They are shorting me $270 according to my quotes received for fence and flagpole. I guess I lose more unpaid time dealing with the stupid insurance company trying to get paid and made whole. What a pain. I Always get screwed.
-
Update: Insurance sucks. Lying, cheating @$^!#!@$.
Finally got enough payment checks from multiple insurance agencies to cover the costs of repairs. Fence was repaired yesterday and looks awesome! I'll post up the guys information that did the work, really great people. They also did the fence work for the Bobby Wallace guy in Wheatridge.
Waiting on flagpole re-installation now. Weather might delay that a little.
