      <title>5 Words Never to Say to Your Insurance Company</title>
      <link>http://www.walletpop.com/insurance/article/5-words-never-to-say-to-your-insurance/602994</link>
      <description>When making an insurance claim, what you say can mean the difference between a fast payment check and a nightmarish process. Insurance companies are sensitive to certain words and using them incorrectly could result in a claim delay or even denial. Of course, lying to your insurance company or misrepresenting facts is fraud -- and your claim will surely be denied if the insurer finds out. But using the right words to accurately describe your problem is important.</description>
