Had 2 roofing companies come and inspect the roof for hail damage, and they both claimed there is hail damage. However, Allstate insurance denied the claim, saying there is 0 hail damage. I sent the report from roofing companies, but they deny it's due to hail. I tried requesting a different adjuster, but Allstate won't budge. Any recommendations on how to proceed with insurance? I have heard I need to hire a public adjuster. Is there a certified inspection I can do that has more value than a roofer's? This is in texas.

Hello. I’m looking for options or ideas to fight the denial. I’ll start by saying I’m not medical insurance savvy whatsoever, I struggle to fully understand the what’s and whatnots. Her insurance is Christis Health Plan. My mother (45) battled stage 3 cancer last year up until two months ago when we finally got the good news she’s in remission. As she’s come off an aggressive treatment plan, she has started to lose function of her legs. Her PCP has ordered an MRI to attempt to diagnose but the insurance has denied it. Currently she’s on a medication to ease the numbness/ loss of control but over the last few weeks it has gotten to the point she cant make it up the four stairs without help and falls on uneven ground. I’m not sure how much else info is relevant but I’ll do my best to answer any questions. She’s calling both her doctor and insurance in the morning for further information. What specifically should she be asking? Is there anything we can do to help get this approved? Any help is so appreciated as a $1400 MRI cash pay seems daunting, much less whatever it may cost to get her back in walking order.

Is this a good comp plan for State Farm or should I look elsewhere? Hey everyone, I’ve been with State Farm for about 3 months now and just recently had my agent finally sit down and go over my compensation plan — something he’s been promising to do since I started. Here’s what it looks like (full document attached): • Base Salary: $35,000 • Auto/Fire Base Commission: 5% • Life/Health: 20% of 12-month premium • PTO: 8 days • Penalties: $50 deduction off bonus for every incomplete HH checklist Bonus opportunities: • Issue 5 life policies → +3% increase on P&C commissions • Issue 4 health applications → $250 bonus The issue is, I was also promised the chance to join the Aspirant Program, which was a huge selling point for me — but as time passes, it’s becoming clear that he probably doesn’t have much control over that, and it feels less and less likely it’ll happen. So, I’m wondering… Is this a competitive compensation plan for someone in my position? Or should I start looking elsewhere? I’ve got a background in finance and have been putting in real effort here, but I’m starting to feel like this might not be a long-term fit. Appreciate any insight from others in the industry.

I'm a 38/f with 3 young kids. I did an online application for term life insurance (no exam) with Ladder for 750k/30yr. I have no medical issues other than familial high cholesterol controlled with statin, non smoker, no pre-existing conditions etc. They quoted me at 117 a month. I know no exam is generally higher than traditional, but this seems off to me. Is it me, or is this very high? Could the cholesterol be that much of a factor?

Hi, First off, let me list out my situation quickly: Washington State College Student Insurance: Medicare --> EMI Health (Switched, received pay raise) Today, I checked into my dentist for a cleaning. I informed the front desk person I had switched insurance providers. She didn't say much, but checked me and said I would meet with a patient resource person after my appointment. I went back, had what I thought was just a cleaning. I went to the waiting room, then had my meeting with the patient resource specialist who told me that my insurance was no covered. no worries, what does a cleaning cost? $70? No issue. Well no. They did a "scaling" thing because my gums were inflamed so the total is $209. In this meeting was the first time I was informed about the scaling they did to my teeth. I have no recollection at previous appointments of them mentioning scaling or anything. I was never disclosed any cost because if I would have heard $209, I would have dipped quick. Is there anyway I can get out of this? I feel kinda screwed over because I had no idea what they were going to do to my teeth or procedures performed. It was my impression it was just a cleaning. I understand it is MY RESPONSIBILITY to verify my dentist is in my network, so I own up to that. It is mainly the scaling thing... I have a phone call with the dental supervisor. What should I say? I want to be as respectful as possible. Thanks

Pretext: In michigan, 2019 Equinox. So the girlfriend rear ended a trailer, resulted in a decent amount of damage to the front end. Part of the damage was the axle being ripped out of the transmission, loss of fluid and all that goes with that. She files a claim, we take it to a preferred body shop that is a Cadillac dealer. Repairs were made, we pick it up after it’s ‘finished’. I am the one who picked it up and noticed almost immediately there are shifting problems that did not exist before the accident. Called the body shop and they said they would be the first step, so the car was parked and we went out of town for the 4th of July weekend, dropped he car back to the body shop the following Tuesday. Have waited this long for an adjuster to rule that it is not loss related due to it being internal to the transmission. And because he can’t see an impact to the transmission, it would not be covered. I understand it would be hard to prove the problem didn’t exist if it were left only my word. But Progressive won’t pay the diagnostic hours to find out what the problem even is. Am I out of line expecting more out of this? For a car that operated flawlessly before an accident, shouldn’t I expect the same after repairs? What should the next steps be? When I asked about an appeal process the adjuster said they’re really isn’t one, and two supervisors already agreed with him. Am I SOL?

I’m not having a good experience with Pet’s Best. Started my policy in November for a 3yr old rescue. It has been about 4 weeks since I submitted my last claim. Emails came saying they’ve reached out to (wrong vet) for medical records. I call my vet and they get emailed to PB within minutes. Today I get another email asking for my help. I forward the same email from my vet to them. Then sign in to see they have all the medical records and have labeled them “valid”. It’s almost like they’re holding off until I get charged for another month. Meanwhile, they reimbursed for hookworm medication within a week of submitting the claim. That was my latest claim.

I faxed in a request to cancel and cash out an unneeded long-term care policy. I noticed I was billed again, about a month later. I received in the mail that same day a letter denying my request because the signature doesn't match what they have on file. I called Allstate and they told me all I can do is resubmit and ensure the signature matches, but it'll be declined again if it still doesn't. I was told I'd lose the accrued value if I disputed the charge or stopped the payments. I'm at a loss. My signature hasn't changed. Any suggestions?

Earlier this year, I was involved in an accident where I was side swiped by a gardener truck. I was on a residential street and slowed down to look for parking. The gardener truck was behind me but decided to pass me, and when I drove forward a little to park further up, the truck merged back into my lane and struck my car with the equipment hanging off its trunk. They sustained no damages while my drivers side window shattered, mirror broke off, and fender/door sustained damages. Around 2 months ago, we received a letter from their insurance saying they assessed 55% negligence on their insured driver and 45% on me. They were also willing to pay for 55% of my damages. My insurance decided to take them to arbitration. During this time I received 2 letters from my representative. The first said that while the other insurance company has accepted full responsibility for the accident, they have not been able to reach a settlement for damages paid. I then received a second letter a month later saying that the arbitrator has ruled in favor of the other party. This seemed like a complete 180. I was shocked to learn of their final decision and emailed my representative asking if any of my $1,000 deductible would be recovered. She said no and sent me a copy of the arbitration decision which stated the following duties breached on my end: vehicle failed to keep appropriate lookout and they failed to maintain safe parking maneuvering. Is there anything I can do at this point? I know the arbitration decision is binding and final but I am honestly just stunned, especially because it felt like the truck failed to safely pass my car. I spoke with my insurance and they said my premium will most likely double. Is this fair?
