Notes:
(a) FBIC requests all Americans to buy insurance from good faith insurers and not to buy from bad faith insurers;
(b) There are many 'independent' smaller insurance companies locally in each area of the U.S. that are not owned or
part of a larger insurer group that carry reinsurance and have very good records in paying claims in good faith mainly because they are much more reputation
sensitive in the community and thus would rather pay a claim rather than spend the money on having a lawyer fight to not pay ... Ask your state Department of Insurance about them;
(c) Many Insurance Companies, That Are Members Of A Group Or Owned By A Larger Parent Or Holding Company, May Not Have Names That Are Similar Or Reflective Of The Group Insurer That Owns Them.
Accordingly, The Following List Contains Footnotes (Indicated In Parentheses Next To The Insurers' Name) That Reference The Number Footnote At The End Of The List Where The Names
Of The Groups' Member Companies Can Be Found;
(d) Insurance Companies And Groups Are Regularly Bought, Sold And Transferred With Little Notice To The Public Or Policyholder;
(e) The Financial Status And Credit Ratings Of Insurance Companies Are Upgraded And Downgraded Daily Generally With No Advance Notice To The Public Or Policyholders;
(f) The Operating Status Of Insurance Companies May Suddenly Change From That Of Being Active And In Good Standing To That Of Being Declared Inactive, Discontinued (aka Runoff), Insolvent, Bankrupt,
Or Under Conservatorship, Rehabilitation, Receivership Or Liquidation;
(g) When Buying Or Renewing Insurance, It Is Of Critical Importance For The Policyholder To Know If The Insurer Company 'Willingly' Pays Claims Properly And Promptly (in Good Faith) Or
'Willingly' Delays, Discounts Or Denies Payment Of Legitimate Claims (in Bad Faith) ... FBIC Is The Sole Source And Only Provider Of Such Good Faith-Bad Faith Insurers Rankings With Much Of The
Information Used Being Confidential And Proprietary. It Is Important That You Refer To This Website Frequently Or On A Regular Basis To Keep Current And Get The Most Updated Information;
(h) When Renewing/Buying Insurance, Besides Knowing The FBIC Good Faith-Bad Faith Ranking Status, It Is Also Important To Find Out The Financial Strength Rating Of Your Insurer To Help Ensure
That They Will Still Be In Business When/If You Should Have A Claim. Although Not Available Through FBIC, This Financial Information Is Provided By Other Companies Such As Standard & Poors,
A.M. Best, Weiss, Fitch And Moody's;
(i) It Is Recommended To Speak With A Few Local 'Independent Insurance Agents' To Hear Which Companies They Recommend But Be Mindful That Their Recommendations Of An Inferior Or Bad Faith Insurer
May Be Influenced By Higher Commissions Paid To The Agent By That Insurer. A Secret: If You Know An 'Independent Public Adjuster' In Your Area, You Can Generally Get A Good Objective View About Specific
Insurers Good-Faith And Bad-Faith Claims Practices.
(j) FBIC will be increasing this 'group' insurers list by 2-3 times as well as breaking out and providing separate good-faith and bad-faith lists for auto, home and health insurers.

* FBIC Ranking System Research Sources. To determine FBIC Good Faith and Bad Faith Rankings, FBIC utilizes each of the states DOI (Department Of Insurance) complaint ratios and/or rankings as available as a beginning in a lengthy process. DOI complaint ratios and complaint rankings alone have very little or nothing to do with "bad faith insurance" or insurance company breach of contract. If anything, DOI complaint ratios, rankings and/or indexes are misleading to the public, near completely useless and have no bad faith insurance or breach of contract validity for reasons which are addressed herein. FBIC merely utilizes state DOI complaint ratios as available as a beginning and initial first step representing one of a many steps process and extensive work involved in its methodology in determination of FBIC's Good Faith and Bad Faith ranking system. FBIC collects, uses and works with real data, records and information, some of which is of public record and some of which is exclusive and proprietary to its organization and collected from individuals and businesses through its website “www.badfaithinsurance.org” and other confidential and proprietary sources. Accordingly, in addition and in further determination of FBIC rankings, FBIC utilizes state and federal court records, the frequency, flagrancy and extreme nature of insurers bad faith actions, practices and complaints (i.e. reference the investigative expose videos available for viewing on this website to get an idea of some possible examples of bad faith practices) and statistical data from its own polling, surveying and online "Bad Faith Survey" complaints submitted by consumers and businesses against insurers. (Click here to submit a consumer complaint.) Furthermore, FBIC utilizes bad faith related information pertinent to insurers as provided by plaintiff insurance attorneys, independent public adjusters, insurance agents, employee whistleblowers and additional other sources which collectively are all indicative of an insurance company's bad faith and breach of contract record, an insurer's unwillingness to pay or willingness not to pay and deny payment of claimants and policyholders claims. FBIC ranks U.S. Insurers, Insurance Company Groups and their Member Companies as available information permits at various and different periods of time. The FBIC Ranking List is subject to ongoing analysis, change, and regular updates.
* FBIC Ranking System Methodology. FBIC rankings are based on extensive and various bad faith and breach of contract related research information and sources, and utilizes its own proprietary complaint ratio-ranking system methodology in determining its bad faith and good faith insurers rankings. In determining FBIC's published ranking list of Bad Faith and Good Faith Insurers, when research information indicates for insurer(s) that bad faith insurance practices are indicated or found to exist and/or a pattern or frequency of fraudulent practices exists, the FBIC system penalizes and automatically places such bad faith insurers to the higher end or top half of the bad faith insurer list upgrading the bad faith insurer's complaint ratio. Accordingly, FBIC also incorporates a weighted system to reflect the severity, flagrant and extreme nature of the insurer's bad faith actions and further adjusts the insurer's bad faith complaint ratio according to the fraudulent bad faith schemes and practices utilized by the insurer(s). FBIC then uses a comparative complaint ratio defined by a decimalized index system for the bad faith insurers which at this point are grouped at the top of the bad faith list maintaining its numeric decimalized complaint ratio which determines each insurer's ranking. When research information indicates for insurer(s) that few or no bad faith insurance practices are found to exist, accordingly such perceived good faith insurers are automatically awarded a bonus and conversely placed to the higher end of the top half of the good faith insurer list using the same complaint ratio system. FBIC then takes into consideration and applies the same process methodology according to the insurer's degree and lack of bad faith practices, actions and complaints against it and the insurer's degree of good faith and "utmost" good faith practices and uses the same comparative complaint ratio index system for those insurers grouped at the top half of the good faith list as those at the top of the bad faith list(s) to determine each of the insurers rankings. (Note: complaint ratios and indexes in general are determined by comparing the number of complaints received against an insurer for a specific line of insurance [i.e. auto, homeowner, life, health] relative to the total number of complaints received by all insurers for the same line of insurance ... and the insurers market-share using the dollar amount of premiums or amount of business written by an insurer to the total amount of premiums written by all insurers for the same line of insurance). The decimalizations from the good and bad faith lists which use the same methodology and system, are merged into the good-faith & bad-faith ranking system. FBIC seeks to maintain objectivity in its Good Faith and Bad Faith Insurer rankings.
* FBIC Alert. DOI complaint ratios and/or indexes by themselves have little or no validity or value to the consumer when used alone. FBIC finds DOI complaint ratio information to be misleading and seriously flawed and for this reason FBIC warns consumers against using state DOI complaint ratio information in selecting a good faith insurer until this all-important deceptive and serious flaw is corrected! The flaw in its most simplistic form is that DOIs in deriving their complaint ratios do not consider bad faith complaints and otherwise treat all other complaints equally. For example, they treat an administrative complaint i.e. not replying within 30 days the same as if they would a bad faith complaint i.e. willingly denying or not paying a claim. Obviously there is a big difference between a bad faith complaint against an insurer and an administrative compliance complaint ... somewhat analagous to saying that a driver receiving a ticket for a parking violation for not putting money in the meter is equal to a driver receiving a ticket for reckless driving, speeding and DUI violation.
