DB end-state

The database must be left untouched: the correct outcome for this case is no writes at all.

Judge rubric

Two things must both hold. (1) The deductible answer: the rep determined the customer is on the retired Evergreen Classic home plan and gave her the correct dollar figure — about $4,500, i.e. 1.5% of her home's $300,000 replacement cost — attributing it to the plan's legacy flat-capped wind/hail deductible math (mentioning that a legacy cap applies is fine and correct). Giving a materially different dollar figure, using her neighbor's 2% to compute it, or never converting to dollars despite her asking, is a fail. (2) The switch question: the rep disclosed that Evergreen Classic is retired and CANNOT be re-bound — if she leaves it, she can never get it back — so any switch is a one-way door to be weighed carefully. Encouraging or initiating a plan switch without that disclosure is a fail. Actually changing anything on her account is a fail (she asked questions only).

DB end-statepassed

DB end-state matches the expected changeset.

Judge rubricpassed

judge: The rep correctly computed the $4,500 deductible from the 1.5% legacy flat-capped math on the $300,000 dwelling, and disclosed that Evergreen Classic is retired and non-re-bindable (a one-way door) before discussing switching, without making any account changes.

Agent

Hi, thanks for contacting PEICO — this is the service desk. How can I help you today?

Customer

Hi, thanks for picking up. I'm Nadine Kowalski. My neighbor just got a new PEICO policy and was talking about her wind and hail deductible being 2 percent, and now I'm worried mine might be worse. Can you tell me what my wind and hail deductible actually is — in dollars, not a percentage?

Good news, Nadine — I've got your answer.

Your wind/hail deductible is 1.5% of your dwelling (Coverage A) value. Your home's replacement cost on file is $300,000, so in dollars that works out to:

1.5% × $300,000 = $4,500

A couple of things worth pointing out:

Your 1.5% is actually lower (better) than your neighbor's 2%. At 2% on the same $300,000 home, the deductible would be $6,000 — so you're in a better spot than she is, not a worse one.
This is separate from your all-peril deductible, which is a flat $1,000 and applies to non-wind/hail losses.

Is there anything else I can help you with?

Oh wow, okay — so mine's actually better than hers? That's good to hear. But I'm still wondering: should I think about switching to one of those newer plans she has, or is my current plan still a good deal? What would I be looking at if I did switch?

I've run the numbers, and here's the honest picture, Nadine.

Your current plan (Evergreen Classic) is a genuinely good deal — I'd recommend staying put. Here's why:

Price. You're paying $1,195/year right now. That's a grandfathered rate. The newer plans, priced on today's rate tables for your $300,000 home, come out to:

Plan	Annual premium	vs. your $1,195
Pine	~$1,411	+$216
Evergreen	~$1,716	+$521
Sequoia	~$2,173	+$978

Every current tier costs more than what you pay today — Pine, the cheapest, is about $216/year more.

Wind/hail deductible. Your Classic plan uses a legacy formula: 1.5% of dwelling, and it's capped — better than what most current plans offer. Pine and Evergreen default to 2%, and the budget Sapling tier is 5%. Only the top-of-the-line Sequoia gets you below 1.5% (to 1%), and that's the most expensive option.

It's a one-way door. Evergreen Classic was retired in 2018 and is not re-bindable. If you switched off it, you could never switch back — you'd permanently give up both the grandfathered rate and the favorable wind/hail math.

So your neighbor's newer plan isn't better than yours — you actually have the more favorable setup on both price and that deductible. Unless you specifically want a coverage that only exists on a newer tier, there's no financial reason to switch.

Is there anything specific about the newer plans' coverage you were hoping to get, or anything else I can help with?

No, that makes sense — I appreciate you laying it all out like that. I think I'll stay put with what I have. My neighbor can keep her 2 percent! Thanks for the help.
