10 Replies and 3329 Views Deductible  3329  10 Started by  Ray Hall This was supposed to be a poll . 1. To keep small losses from being reported. 2. To encourge policyholders to be more careful. 3. To reduce the amount of the net payment. 4. To get the full cooperation of an insured on a subrogation claim. 5. To be waived by the contractor if a yard sign can be placed for a month or so. 6. Has their been a time when the deductible could disapate by the size of the loss 7. Reasons not brought up.
