    They could test the poison residue on the lawn then have a look at what type of poison you use. But then again, anyone who has been a victim of crime and goes to the police wanting help knows that usually they couldn't be bothered.... however if you are driving down the road doing 15 k's over the speed limit they are all over you like flies on 5h!t.

    Back in the day my house broken into. About $2500 (that was A LOT back in 1992) worth stolen, a heap of CDs and tapes etc, even my 3/4 full bottle of Jim. Called cops and they didnt want to know about it!
    I doubt they'd do tests for poison, where it came from, batch etc etc over a few dead spots on a lawn!

    Insurance for my ute. Went from $890 last year to $1491 this year. WTF? I got a quote online from another company and it came back with $1860! Did I miss something with the insurance industry?

    My Home and Contents insurance renewal came, I entered the exact details into my current insurer's quote system and got it cheaper than renewing by about $35. I did the same with the car insurance but the renewal was cheaper. Random.

    Yep, you missed the fact they can do what they like, and rip people off

    Yeah I'll definitely keep looking around. I don't get how when it was new 5 years ago the insurance was about $600, and now that it's worth not much more than half the original price the insurance has almost tripled! I'm dreading what my insurance will be for my new truck when it comes in a month or so.

    Bingo plus the fires if u havent got your renewal notices yet hold on tight my car went down in value yet the insurance went from $850 to $1250, liability from $650 to $850 and i'm just waiting to see what the home and contents goes too.

    Yet we dont get a discount if they dont pay out much for the year do we how does that work.

    maybe try an sa company that hasnt had the exposure to the eastern states as much. they might not realise? having said that i also have a 94 xg falcon ute. only about $150 3rd party, but a whopping $600 for fire and theft included ... the car is only worth a k if i am lucky?
