Discovery Insure - Looks for any excuse not to pay

I had lighting struck my home and damaged a number of items, including my pool timer. The insurance assessor Yondela and her Manager Brett indicated that it is not lighting damage and refutes the claim. The timer is less than 3 months old and was working before the incident. I am prepared to get a statement from the Electrician, Pool Service that maintains my pool and me. They stick to a script and would rather lose a client then pay for the fixing. Soon to be ex customer.
