Bettersure bad service and unexplained claims rejection after second assessor came out

I bought a new home early this year with a pool in very good condition, moved in 1st of May. I accepted a quote from Bettersure for house and building cover. In July, we had excessive rain on 2 occasions (each several days of rain) and afterwards I noticed the cement bricks around the pool caving in and the pool bulging to the inside. I contacted the insurance, they sent out an assessor and then a builder. The quote to repair was very high and Bettersure rejected it. Bettersure then sent out a second assessor and his report was different and he said the damage was not due to the storms. Since then I have been trying to challenge the rejection and everytime I am told to wait for the documentation to do so... even after my 4th call back to Bettersure I am still waiting and find the service absolutely terrible and compared to my previous insurance the difference is mind blowing... I will most probably be moving away from Bettersure
