- •The company on your declarations page, not the brand on the ads, is the entity that adjusts and pays your claim.
- •Most Florida homeowners carriers are rated by Demotech, not AM Best; the two use different scales.
- •The NAIC complaint index measures complaints against a carrier’s size, where 1.00 is the market average, a signal, not a verdict.
- •Depopulation and insolvencies keep moving policies between carriers, always confirm who holds yours before you file.
- •These dossiers are public-record and neutral: we do not rank carriers or claim to vet them.

What a complaint index actually tells you
Regulators track complaints, and the NAIC publishes a complaint index: a carrier’s share of complaints divided by its share of premium. 1.00 is the market average. Above 1.0 means more complaints than the carrier’s size predicts; below 1.0, fewer. A big writer generates a big raw number of complaints simply because it holds a lot of policies, which is exactly why the index divides by size.
We do not publish an index figure for any carrier. A complaint index changes every year, it is reported per line of business, and the number that matters is the one the regulator publishes, not one repeated second-hand. Pull it for your own carrier from the NAIC, and file or check a Florida complaint through the Florida Department of Financial Services.
One more piece of context we keep honest: most Florida-focused homeowners carriers are rated by Demotech, not AM Best, a different scale that mortgage lenders accept, and one whose methodology became the subject of a U.S. Senate committee inquiry in December 2025. A financial-strength rating tells you about a carrier’s solvency, not about how it will adjust your specific claim. Each dossier states which agency rates the carrier and links its primary source.
Whatever the name on the letter, get a second read.
Upload the denial letter or estimate and your declarations page. You’ll get a straight answer on which argument the carrier is running, no matter which one it is.
