Insurance claim issue finally solved


Filed a claim latter 2025 for an accident that I had in BCS. Jumped through all necessary hoops to initiate process and then waited, and waited, and waited some more. Finally decided to contact the Vagabundos del Mar to assist me after receiving this email from Chubb:

I am so sorry for the delay in my Response. The issue here is that for some reason, Mr. Boe’s policy in our system is not being applied to his claim, making not possible to add any payment information. We have already tried opening new claims and other internal processes, getting the same issue every time. A report to our IT team has been made by me and we’re pending for their response.

We are doing everything that we have in our hands to solve this matter as quickly as possible. As soon as I get any new information regarding this payment, I’ll be sharing it with you all in this email chain.

Please do not hesitate to contact me in case you have any other questions in this
Best regards.

Once the Vagabundos became involved on my behalf the situation was solved within a short time. Mil gracias to the Vagabundos Del Mar Travel Club for their assistance in this situation.

Chubb handled a workman's comp claim for me about a year and a half ago, but even though I never had to file paperwork beyond the initial claim, I was surprised to learn that they didn't think it was necessary to share payment details with me. Oh well.

I only carry liability (and get out of jail) insurance on my old vehicles. I am pleased to report that in all my Baja trips I have never had to use it!

Note to self not to insure with Chubb. :fire:

My biggest problem dealing with legal forms in Mexico was their constant ability to misspell names when they were transcribing from one document to another. We had about 5 or 6 aliases and 3 different addresses created from only 7 legal documents.
A person starts suspecting this was done purposely and not by consistent errors.
Only happened once up here by an inattentive secretary without our knowledge, and that one was difficult enough to rectify at Equifax when we happened to check our credit ratings.
I think it's likely your policy got "lost" due to a transcribing error. We got in the habit of double checking our name and address on legal documents every time we bought insurance or paid out anything that required a factura before we signed any forms or purchased insurance. Errors were caught and corrected more than 50% of the time.
