Will your insurance premium go up for an act of god claim?

Answer 1

Yes and no. Insurance companies do not raise your rate because you filed a claim (this only applies to "Act of God" claims). Any claim related to weather like hail, wind, flood, tornado, etc. It's called a pooling effect, so if X# of people file a claim in your area everyone's rates go up whether you file a claim or not. Insurance companies do not raise your rate just because you filed a claim. Now, they can drop you for any reason they want, but are not likely to drop you because of an Act of God claim. If they drop you because you filed an Act of God claim, then you should definitely find a new insurance company.
