I had a car hit our cabinets on Oct 5.  I submitted paperwork on Oct 6.  I
billed for my time, my techs' time, new cabinets, batteries, disposal of
the old batteries (they were destroyed), and a small $250 outage charge
since the neighborhood was without internet for 3 hours.

Since 9am today, for about an hour, I've been on hold with All State to get
some sort of answer.  They said 7-14 business days or something which
obviously hasn't been the case.
