Hi everyone, my 77 year old dad is visiting me in May. It's his first time in the US. He has a COPD condition and we recently came to know from his doctor that he needs supplemental oxygen. He had to do a bunch of tests (spirometry, Hypoxic challenge) to qualify for it. The thing is once he is here and it's time To go back, the airline needs him to redo the tests that he's already done. I talked to INF and it looks like they only cover an onset of a pre existing condition. But, this counts as ongoing care. Can anyone recommend an insurance that will be helpful in this case? Thank you so much.

Has anyone had their Geico premium suddenly jump after switching from pay in full to monthly payments? I changed the billing method thinking it would just add a small fee but then got a new declaration with a much higher rate of 25% increase. Support says it was unrelated and just part of a regular rate adjustment but the timing feels off. I didn’t change anything else in my policy and my neighbors didn’t see any increase. Curious if others experienced this or if it’s worth escalating.

So long story short was involved in minor car accident that I was not at fault for , this happened on 3/3/2025 and I didn’t get any information from the adjuster after having the car looked at until I decided to call to see what was going on and they somehow missed to file something so I didn’t hear back until 3/27/2025. The adjuster was adamant about me signing and cleaning my car out from the place that repaired it which I did a few days later , which it was considered a total loss and I received the estimate/ Salvage value and all of that again a few days later after having to ask for it. Now since then I cannot get a hold of anyone I’ve sent countless emails and phone calls and just today text messages to the Total Salavage department of Erie Insurance as I didn’t even agree to the repair costs or the amount they want to give back to me , I’m unsure what to do currently I just would like a status of where my vehicle is even at , I wanted to at least have one more shop to check it out and get a second opinion but now it just seems unfeasible at this point having to wait and wait and wait, so yeah first accident never dealt with anything like this so any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I was rear ended by a driver with an out of state license, but his truck is registered in this state (Texas), he seemed to be a shady individual as well to me when dealing with him. The police came and wrote a report but it didn’t technically put him at fault even though he rear ended me. I did however get him on video admitting he was at fault. I filed the claim with his insurance, but it was a slow response from them. I went ahead and filed with mine to get the ball rolling because I needed to get it fixed. Well turns out that was a good move because come to find out he wasn’t covered by his insurance company at the time. So basically he got away with having no insurance when the police arrived because he had a paper saying he did. My question is now that my truck is fixed and back to normal, I received a diminution in value evaluation form from my insurance company for me to fill out. Is this to provide a compensation due to my truck now losing some value to the accident? It had never been in an accident previously so what can I expect towards compensation based on the value of the truck. Its KBB value ranges from $15-$19k. It’s in excellent condition though. How would diminution work according to that? Will my insurance company send me a check or something? Also on a side note, can I contact the police to inform them that his insurance company called me and said that he was not covered at the time? Could they pursue a ticket to him even though he has an out of state license?

Hello! I have a 4 year old dog and I am looking to change my policy from healthy paws. I think they're great but I hate that I have to pay for yearly vaccinations/checkups and dont get re imbursed. Any recommendations for a good insurance that has a low deductible and will reimburse annual exams which include vaccinations, possible dental care and flea meds? Thanks in advance!

I am in the habit of constantly asking clarifying questions and I ask the same ones over and over again to different people (I call frequently) and I get different answers all the time. I never truly know what's covered or how much it's going to cost. It's so much BS. The medical facilities give me more accurate information than Priority Health does. 3 Priority Health people have told me my son receives unlimited therapy visits because of his diagnosis, but I know that's not true, and I've had only 2 people tell me the correct number of visits he gets for his diagnosis. The pediatric office even knew the correct answer. How is this legal for them to be so wrong all the time? Ughhhhh

In 2020 I had voluntarily repossessed a mobile home I had bought with a loan through Vanderbilt. Flash forward to now, I’m trying to buy a house and am running to issues with the classification of the deficiencies on that mobile home that I surrendered. Vanderbilt is internally handling the deficiency balance instead of selling it to a collections agency, which makes it an internal collections between me and them. However, when handling my credit now, Vanderbilt is now saying that it is a “voluntary surrender with a decreasing deficiency” instead of a “collections account” which is preventing me from closing on my chosen house. I have been talking with Vanderbilt and looking for further clarification on this because the repossession was finalized years ago and they sold the mobile home and have left me with the deficiencies, hence a decreasing balance (in collections through them right?). However can I have an active and open repossession when the property in question no longer is in my or the banks possession? I asked for clarification on if it is a collections or open repossession, because it can’t be both at the same time. I was told they don’t know and that they will ask their credit department on what they have it listed as. I am awaiting the answer which I should get by noon tomorrow. Furthermore, in January they reported the account to equifax as a collections account that is having payments made. In February they reported it as an active mortgage with a severe deficiency and declining deficiency. I’m at a bit of a loss, my current bank I’m going through is pissed about all of this, and I’m seeking some advice before I get back on the phone tomorrow.

My son damaged his car leaving a parking lot. He didn’t tell us for a few weeks (he parks with the passenger side near the garage wall so we never see that side) and can’t remember the address because he was lost in a scary part of town. He definitely drove over something because the frame behind the front passenger wheel well is bent. Geico wants the address in case there is property damage. I’m pretty sure it was an abandoned lot and nobody cares about a piece of cement. I don’t even know what to say to them. I’ve explained the situation but they keep wanting an address. It’s a 2 year old financed car that we bought brand new and have been with Geico for 10 years and have maybe 2 claims. This is my son’s first claim and he’s got no traffic violations or accidents but this. He’s 25.

Just wondering if anyone else has dealt with this. Recently was in an accident which I was not at fault. I have a luxury vehicle that was fully paid for. State Farm totaled my vehicle. My issue is the amount they want to settle my claim for is substantially less than what I think it should be or was expecting. Do I have to accept that? Is my only recourse to file a lawsuit? I live in Wyoming BTW. Thanks for any help or advice!
