Teach you for owning a flat.Originally posted by scooterscot View PostMy ceiling in the UK apartment has just falling down caused by a neighbour's leaking dishwasher.
£3k worth of damage my insurance company is forking out. Myself another £500 in lost rent and other administrative fees.
What I don't understand is why my insurance should be forking out when the damage is caused by my neighbour's equipment.
Is that right?

If that's the case why does it feel they ramp up my premium the following year?Originally posted by davetza View PostIt's just the way the insurance system works. The damage was to your property so you have to claim from your insurance. However you insurance company will then claim from the insurance of the property above yours as they were they ones who caused the damage.

You can sue him.
I had something similar happen while I was having a lie in at an ex girlfriends flat a few years ago, when the police entered the upstairs flat it turned out the guy had died in the shower and blocked the drainage hole.
