Some that have flood insurance, aren't getting contents covered just house damage, paid to the morgage company.

hey roadwarrior we do have the fact that people tried to get flood insurance but you know what its kinda hard when the companies said oh well your not in flood plains.

[roadwarrior96]

One thing I never get is why people buy houses in flood plains and the act shocked when it floods? Its only a matter of time.....when did common sense become a luxury?

[wondery34]

I guess you have heard that Columbus is not consider flood lands. We try to get flood insurance and they won't give it to me. so don't knock people who got flooded til you know what your talking about!!!!!!!!

Columbus isn't in a flood plain asshole. It hasn't flooded here since 1913. Most insurance companies won't even SELL flood insurance to someone in an area that isn't considered a flood plain, so it's not common sense... it's usually not necessary.

ok man, we live in a none flood plain leme say that again NONE FLOOD PLAIN meaning The govornement wont give it to us even after the flood we were asking for it and they where arguing with us ... Don't say that crap why rip on people that had a nice home and now it's ruiend by water you just wont understand till itt happens to you

[roadwarrior96]

[doodlegirljen]

we don't live in a flood plain. we were in that flood. our basement filled up and so did our first floor.

until you've been through it, don't even dis on our "common sense" how the hell were we supposed to know a small river would cause so much destruction? our house still isn't back to normal. get some compassion ass hole.
