I got a piece of mail yesterday telling me of rights to receive a payout if you had a perm policy with Mass.
After reading about the complaint, I guess it started 4 years ago, it looks like Mass misrepresented how they calculate the safety fund and sent back less dividends to owners. Mass settled this, hence the 37.5 million payout.
There's a possibility Mass will have another class action over prohibiting policy owners to vote in the board of elections, and instead giving that privilege to people who had policies put on themselves rather to the owner who took out the policy.
Anyone hear of this stuff or have an opinion on this? I wonder how many other large insurers are/have/will get sued over dividends?
One thing I find curious is how the lady found out about the fund calculations who's isnt known outside of Mass...
