General patterns reported on this type of claim — not specific findings about Nationwide. Every claim turns on its own policy and facts.
Nationwide underwrites property on more than one entity. Homeowners policies are commonly written by Nationwide Mutual Fire Insurance Company (NAIC #23779) or an affiliate such as Nationwide Property & Casualty Insurance Company. The named insurer that must pay your claim is printed on your declarations page — check it before you file or dispute.
Report a property claim at 800-421-3535 or through your agent; confirm the current number on nationwide.com. To dispute a decision, request the full claim file and the specific policy basis in writing. Florida offers free Department of Financial Services mediation for residential property claims and a 1-year notice / 18-month supplemental deadline under § 627.70132; South Carolina consumers can complain to the Department of Insurance at doi.sc.gov, and its suit-limitation clauses are strict. Confirm your dates with counsel.
