I was in a car accident yesterday. A person ran a red light as I was entering an intersection and ripped across the front of my car. Bumper cover was destroyed, and the hood won't open now. Unfortunately there were no witnesses (no one stopped, anyway), and the other person's insurance company (Allstate) says I'm at fault (I suspect the other driver lied about running the light). Is it worth the effort trying to sue for what is likely to be $10,000 or less in damage? Will it be possible to get an attorney to take such a small case?

Today my 3 year old hit the gas pedal on the golf cart and ran it into my other kids electric scooters/ the wall in my garage. I hopped off to grab stuff out of the back “trunk” type thing and next thing I know it’s gone forward and hit the house. Thankfully she was okay. She was scared, I was scared. We had a good cry. I have insurance on my golf cart. I called them up and they said after the deductible, the repairs to the golf cart would be covered but the damage to my other property (my home, my car, the electric bikes/scooters, my built in shelves and other random smaller items) will not be covered because I own those items. They said had it hit someone else’s scooters/house/car that would cover it. When I got the golf cart, I called my insurance agent so I could add it to my homeowners policy and she said it was cheaper to have a separate policy for just the golf cart and to go through progressive. So this is what I did. I called my insurance company after hearing this news from progressive, and they said they could cover it under our homeowners policy- but that we would have to pay that deductible too. It wouldn’t be worth it to pay both deductibles. I am just surprised that progressive isn’t covering any of the personal property damage. Is this a normal thing?

I've had this insurance for my great dane as soon as I adopted him at 1 yr 4 months. And it has suddenly quadrupled. I paid around $1k a year, unlimited, 80% reimbursement, and it was worth it due to random illnesses and injuries. When he hit 7 they doubled it to $2k a year (this year). We just moved from IN to CO and I got hit with an additional bill since now the premium is over $4k a year. Like what the hell is this?

Hello! I am struggling to find a good plan for my older cat. I am moving out for college and my apartment requires my cat has insurance. My family never considered pet insurance for her, so it's quite a struggle. Im an undergrad and I love my cat a lot, I grew up with her. She's the cutest torbie short hair with a beautiful coat. But she is 12 years old, with quite a few preexisting conditions. She has arthritis issues and a pretty bad knee, a partially amputated tail from cysts, and has had teeth issues as well. Honestly, considering her pre-existing conditions, I know I will not get much from insurance besides maybe small coverage for check-ups. Lemonade will not let me file for her because of her age. If anyone has recommendations, I am considering a cheaper policy. I am looking into FIGO, but obviously, I have seen bad reviews for every company so I am pretty stuck on what to do.

I got diagnosed with sleep apnea and I was delaying my treatment because I found out that its very expensive. After a few months, the cpap company based in Houston, TX reached out again that my deductible has been met and I just owe 171$ and then insurance will take the charges. After I started my sleep apnea treatment, I got the call again from the medical company that they made a mistake on their end and the benefit information was not correct. So now, they are asking me to pay 45$ for supplies and 65$ for cpap rental every month till the payments are complete. I am just a loss of what the hell is this! I get screwed up and left with more charges for a treatment which was quoted wrongly to me. I called Blue Cross Blue Shield OF TX and they said they cannot help me. My current insurance is ending in one month and I am changing insurance from next month. So, it doesn’t make sense why pay deductible towards an insurance which will not be there in 30 days. What are my rights?

My ADHD prescription has all of sudden stopped being covered by BCBS TN. What’s the fastest way to contact them to resolve this? I have emailed, chat function not available, and I have now been on hold for 3 hours. Has this happened to anyone else? I’m currently at Walgreens don’t know if that matters. But again, it has been covered in the past. It’s not feasible to pay $100+ for a prescription every month nor do I want to.

I am 21 and the oldest “dependent” on the insurance aside from my parents, we are under Molina/Medicaid. We are a family of five, with 2 minors in the home, our ages are: 50s, 50s, 12, 16, and 21(me). My parents file taxes together for a sole proprietor business that they own. Earlier in the year, we renewed are insurance and everything went smoothly and we opted to enroll in the system where Molina automatically enters your tax information for you that they receive from the IRS. My parents typically make ~80-90k combined, but after business expenses, taxes, and bills, they only bring home 30-40k a year. Basically, our family lives off of the 30-40k, NOT the bigger number. This hasn’t changed at all in the past few years, nor has it been an issue for our insurance. However, this year, we received a notice in the mail that none of us are eligible to stay on the insurance and that our insurance ran out on March 31, 2025. While I’m planning on calling Molina soon, I did see that it states that we made nearly 90k, when that isn’t the case. I think this may be an issue from the automation system not taking the accurate data for us. Does anyone else have similar issues or can explain my situation? Edit: my parents’ adjusted gross income is 30-40k for those who may be confused. I’m sorry if I didn’t clarify earlier Edit 2: I figured out the issue. I got off the phone and it turns out they never received our tax info, so we have to reapply. We’re planning on visiting our county insurance office and they just need some proof of income. Thank you for the comments!

Hi all, I'm leaving my current job and I have another position that pays higher than where I'm at right now, but no employee health plan. I'm in CA. Right now I'm looking at marketplace plans for my spouse (33M) and I (31F). We don't use much when it comes to health care. A few random visits here and there, I take a few daily mental health meds but that's it. However, we do want to start a family in the next year so I'm trying to keep that in mind. I've always been on an employer PPO, so that's what I'm used to. My top options currently are Blue Shield of CA PPO, or Kaiser Gold HMO. From what I've seen blue shield is one of the few companies that will offer PPO on the marketplace. I've looked at some of the cheaper plans through multiple companies but since most of them have coinsurance, I worry I could rack up quite a bit if I were to get pregnant/deliver. We earn too much to qualify for financial help/ACA plans as well. Here's my question - how much does Kaiser's HMO plans differ from their PPO? Is it really a big difference since it's all in one system? I know there are issues with Kaiser and it seems people either love it or hate it. But it seems like their HMO plan is cheaper with better coverage (particularly for maternity) than a similar PPO through blue shield. Anything I'm missing here? Any advise or prior experiences would be helpful.

I’ve been a loyal Healthy Paws customer for 13 and a half years—since the day I brought my puppy Bellah home. Over the years, I’ve paid thousands of dollars into this policy with the trust and belief that when the time came—especially in her final stages of life—Healthy Paws would be there for us. Instead, with no prior notice, Bellah’s monthly premium has been raised from $250 to nearly $800. At nearly 14 years old, with limited time left, my dog is being priced out of her coverage when she needs it most. I’ve called. I’ve waited. I’ve been hung up on. I’ve sat on hold for hours, only to speak to customer service reps who are either powerless or unwilling to help. Not a single person has shown any compassion or even attempted to work with me. I wasn’t expecting a miracle—but I did expect humanity. Bellah is not just a pet—she is family. And now, in what should be her most peaceful time, she is being made into a financial burden. After over a decade of loyalty, this is the treatment we’ve received: silence, indifference, and a quadrupled premium. Healthy Paws, this is not how we honor the animals who have given us their unconditional love. This is not dignity. This is not care. This is not right.
