In Virginia (and in most, if not all, states) there is an insurance bureau (http://www.scc.virginia.gov/division/boi/) to which you can file a complaint if you feel your claim was wrongly denied. Theoretically, they provide some regulation of the insurance industry and protect consumers to some extent.

Please give me more information, and I'm sure I can help. Facts of loss? Exact reason they denied your claim? They must give you the reason that your claim was denied, or that you were found neglient. You can file with your company then they can arbitrate the claim for a decision, you can contact the dept of insurance for your state. You can file suit (small claims if under the limit), if you secure a judgment against their insured they will have to pay, (barring any appeals of course), but need to know the reason for denial, to be of real help to you.

It depends on why they didn't pay the claim. If you have the coverage and followed the requirements, like making a police report, cooperating with the insurance company as well as the police then you should have no problem with a claim, if it was in fact a theft. Otherwise you can always sue the company or file a complaint with your state department of insurance if you feel you were denied coverage you paid for.

With Primary and Secondary Insurance your primary denied your claim because it was over a year is your secondary obligated to pay?

Yes, subject to the limits in their policy. No. With most insurance policies, there is what is called a timely filing limitation. For my company; contracted providers have 6 months, and non-contracted providers have 12 months to submit the claim. If your primary insurance received the claim within timely filing, you may have the option of submitting the claim to your secondary with proof that it was filed in a timely manner. If that doesn't work you can always appeal the decision with the secondary or for that matter the primary insurance company. Policy holders are not responsible for claims that deny for timely filing.
