28. I have also had a recent experience with Nationwide (luckily) and they have been remarkable

Last summer I experienced a catastrophic housefire and my homeowner's policy was with Nationwide. They quickly paid out for all damage repair at current estimated cost (not at the value that my house was purchased, but at today's replacement cost.)

I have no complaints with Nationwide, they are currently monitoring the rebuilding of my house and replacement of lost possessions and furnishings. Prior to that housefire I had never thought about what would happen if I ever went through a terrible loss like this. It was life-changing for me.
