Extreme frustration dealing with a claim via email

Discovery rejected a water damage claim for our home. They had about 4 contractors come to investigate the source of the leak at our house. In the end they rejected the claim claiming the builders didn't do the waterproofing adequately. I will fully accept this if they can show me their findings that led them to this believe. But after multiple emails to and through they just keep pointing out the terms of the insurance which isn't helpful at all. There is still water leaking but discovery won't share their finding and they won't help with repairs. I even asked if I could contact the contractors privately but they just told me if I don't agree I can dispute the claim. I'm so frustrated. Also they just keep sending emails. When I asked if someone can please phone me they refused.

Again tried to call their claims department. 13min listening to elevator music and then my call got cut off. This has been a very frustrating experience. .

I'm not disputing the outcome. I simply want to know how Discovery came to the conclusion. You can't just reject a claim without an explanation. Just stating the damage isn't covered by the policy is not an explanation. What I'm deeply hurt by is the fact that nobody has taken the trouble to phone me to ask what it is I really am asking. Everybody just brushes me off with emails that doesn't answer my question. You've left me with the impression that you simply don't care. I can't believe nobody can be bothered to give me a call. Obviously your emails are not answering my questions because you all assume to know what my issue is and then brush my off as a nuisance.
