Will homeowner's insurance cover an overflow toilet?
No. Homeowners insurance does not provide coverage for routine expected plumbing maintenance issues. However, If you have "Accidental Water Discharge" coverage on your policy, then you will be covered for resulting damages from the overflow but not for the actual plumbing repairs needed. If you have damages that resulted from the overflow, once you have made the required plumbing repairs the company will invoke the damage coverage. If you do not make the necessary plumbing repair then the insurance company will not fix the other damages that resulted from it. The reasoning is that if the homeowner refuses to maintain the home, then this is a moral hazard (negligence) on the part of the homeowner and the damages that result from lack of maintenance will be ongoing.
When does an insurance fraud occur?
Insurance fraud takes place whenever an individual takes action to receive benefits that they are not due. Classic examples of this may be burning down an insured house to collect the damages, or killing a spouse to collect life insurance. These are extreme examples, but they demonstrate the basic concept of fraudulently collecting insurance. Inversely, insurance fraud occurs when a company providing coverage refuses to pay out when the terms requiring payment are met. Recently the insurance company Aflac was accused of neglecting to pay out the claims incurred during the earthquake that shook Japan.
What can I do to get my car fixed when the owner of the responsible car refuses refuses to pay for damages done by a boyfriend driving and her insurance won't pay because he was excluded?
I hope you got a police report. If not call the PD and ask them if it's too late to file a report, some will do one weeks after as long as both parties agree it occurred. Second, appeal to your insurance company to file the claim under uninsured motorist insurance (you SHOULD have it). If all else fails, all you can do is go to small claims court.

If that is not a possibility to you, you could entertain the possibility of legal action. It might be far less costly and stressful to contact your insurance company first.
