Credit where credit is due. Spoke to Zach (Zack?) at State Farm just now and in less than five minutes he was able to provide me a definitive answer to a question that's been unresolved for three weeks. Just wish everyone at State Farm was that helpful...

Props to Cambrie at Bilt Hey Bilt for actually taking ownership to resolve the issue, and doing so with astonishing promptness. Cambrie should teach customer service courses.
