Top 7 Weirdest Insurance Claims You Have to Read to Believe
People never cease to amaze. When you think you’ve seen it all…wait, there’s more.
Insurance and worker’s compensation companies have sure seen their share of the weird and wacky over the years.
Don’t believe us? Check out these weird insurance claims that folks have made. The even crazier part is that some of these strange claims were paid out.
1. The Butt of the Beast
Here’s a tip, don’t ever use the light on your phone when you’re helping a cow give birth. A farmer in Devon, UK decided to do it and his phone disappeared somewhere…up there. He got it back, but it didn’t work anymore.
His insurance company paid the claim. Probably because he’d already been through enough.
2. A New Kind of Sanding
While we’re on the subject of cows, have you ever noticed how rough their tongues are? One couple on vacation in Southern France found out the hard way.
A herd of cows apparently thought their car was the newest flavor in lollipops. They licked all the paint clean off the vehicle!
What do you think your auto insurance company would do if you made a claim like this?
3. Monkeying Around
Cows aren’t the only animals who cause trouble for folks on vacation. In Malaysia, a couple was robbed by a group of mischievous monkeys.
The monkeys ran off with their clothes and left them scattered all over the jungle. The insurance company took pity on their plight and paid the claim, although it may have caused a smile or two in the office.
4. The Tooth Fairy
Did you ever leave a tooth under your pillow so the tooth fairy would bring you money? One traveler decided to take it to the extreme.
He lost his dentures overboard while vomiting from a cruise ship during his vacation. After making a claim to the tooth fairy, er, his travel insurance company, he was able to recoup the loss.
5. The Mental Toll of Burgling
The next time you head out on vacation, you may want to leave some food and water for any potential burglars. Why? Because if they get locked in your garage and have to survive on dog food for a week they can sue you for mental anguish.
As crazy as it sounds, a burglar won this claim. He scored a million dollars off that week of agony.
6. Up in Flames
A romantic wedding by the sea in Italy sounds like the perfect dream, doesn’t it? For one couple, it didn’t turn out quite the way they expected.
During the reception, the bride got a little too close to the barbecue and the material quickly caught fire. To save the day her husband grabbed her and threw her in the sea. They both escaped unharmed and the insurance company paid 50% of the damages.
7. Watch Out Below!
Falling coconuts are a real hazard to watch out for. But don’t worry, you can still kick back and relax on the beach. Even if you get knocked out by one of these missiles, the insurance company will have your back as it did for one woman in Sri Lanka.
