Hi, I am really lost and in need of advice. I was involved in an accident where my car had to be towed away (edit: to a combined autobody & tow shop). Because the airbag deployed, they were assuming it would be totaled, and Progressive said they were coming to pick it up to evaluate the damage themselves; not allowing the body shop to give an estimate. (edit: 2013 Kia Optima) I was told by Progressive that the driver at fault carried the minimum property damage allowed by the state of Maryland and he was "afraid we were nearing that limit since they paid $5,000 to get my car released from the tow lot." My car was there for 1 week (8-5 thru 8-12) and I released it to Progressive on (8-8), they just didn't pick it up until today, 8-12. I thought that was a crazy amount, so I called the tow yard(edit: combined tow yard/body shop). They claim Progressive did not pay them a dime. The body shop only received a check from a salvage company (which I didn't (at least knowingly) authorize, and they don't even have proof of the title in my name.) The tow yard (edit: combined tow yard/body shop) is claiming that even though they got a salvage check, that shouldn't affect the amount insurance should pay me. Does anyone have any additional information or advice? Is this just a "he said / she said" situation? TYIA!

so I think the title explains it clear enough got a info in the mail me and my mom share a policy because i'm 19 and from my knowledge its pretty hard to get one note says "we are kicking you off on the 8th because you are doing deliveries" I am not doing deliveries I was in my previous car but I didn't even have that car insured with them and i literally told noone i was, along w the fact that the insurance company i used when I was doing deliveries has gone down under I had to switch and it was a totally separate thing and I haven't done any food deliveries since getting my new car since its a 350z lowered and its practically impossible to do them, so me and mom call agent and agent says "idk it just says you are there is nothing you can do your just going to get kicked off"? need advice in general, and just general questions, why can't I just send them proof that i haven't 2nd question where am I going to get insurance at 19 now

My roof is 13 years old (original to the house), and recently had some wind damage after a storm. I started a claim in 2019 with my previous insurance company (after a hail storm) and was denied a replacement because apparently someone has been on the roof with a hammer or something attempting to mimic hail damage, so it was determined to be vandalism. The new damage is due to wind, but the vandalism is still present. I’m told that at least the back slope (if not the whole thing) needs replaced. Should I file a claim or just pay for the replacement out of pocket?

I’m 20 Male, In California, 2 years driving record with a Clean history. I’m buying a New Ford Maverick 2025 XLT and looking for insurance but I keep getting quoted around $2300 total for ONLY 6 months. This seems insane I know my age and new car and more plays a role, but even then it seems absurd how much it is for just 6 months not even an annual term. Is there anything I can do, or people that might offer me better prices or discounts. I’ve tried most companies and feel as if I won’t get anything better then $2,100 from Progressive.

Basically, they screwed me over on an accident, failed to defend me when I was clearly not at fault, even according to the law. Showed law to the adjuster. Adjuster said "There is nothing you can do, or show me that will make me reconsider my decision." I said "even the law, sir?" He said "Nothing." Then tried to get my claim file a couple years after the fact, and they essentially denied me access and blocked my access to my online account by changing something in my name and changing my DOB. Filed for breach of contract, and their lawyer answered claim saying "he's not our customer", trying to pin it on the underwriter, who, as it turns out, isn't even the real underwriter! It's a fronting arrangement with multiple layers of shell companies.......totally not transparent. Complaint to DOI has been under review, but way past deadline for response or resolution. This is gonna be a fun project. Anybody run into something like this before?

Received this correspondence from our go to body shop. Pre repair/estimate of record phase. Can someone tell me what this means? Wondering if I should look for a less expensive shop, or if this is the case for all legit WA state auto body shops (and our best bet is to ask AllState to pony up). Thank you in advance — THEM: Hi, Allstate has selected a used headlamp from Texas junk yard. I’m not able to buy used parts out of state unless they have a Washington State Wrecker’s License. This could be an out of pocket cost to you up to $1000 if Allstate does not budge on this subject. ‘ Thank you,

Carvana Location: New York I’ve had my Subaru from Carvana since 2023. I recently (3 weeks ago) bought a truck on Carvana. Three days ago I was pulled over in my Subaru and the cop told me the plates were registered to my truck. He gave me 2 tickets. I have been unable to drive because Carvana still has not fixed this. My digital glove box on Carvana has all my truck information. I can’t drive the Subaru because they totally unregistered it. The truck is my brothers. Carvana says they have no idea what happened on their end. They told me they have no idea when it will be resolved. I live in the

Car loan— 12,000 to pay off, interest rate is 7.8% Federal student loans— 6,000 to pay off, interest rates average about 4% I called Wells Fargo, as this is what my auto loan is through and they told me their is no benefit to paying off my car early (as in I won’t save any money) very confused as I know this is a “fixed loan”. Obviously it is better to pay off the higher interest rate, but if it’s a fixed loan does that matter?? Any advice on which to pay off first??

I initially chose Trupanion because of its **per-condition deductible**, which seemed like a great deal. The idea that once you pay the deductible for a condition, you’re covered for life sounded like a financial safety net. **But there’s a catch**—what you think a condition is and what they classify it as can be entirely different. I have a **golden retriever** and live in **California**, where vet care is already expensive. Over the years, I’ve **paid thousands out of pocket** for the same recurring issues, thinking I'd eventually see the benefit of having met the deductible. Instead, I was repeatedly disappointed to find that Trupanion either classified the conditions differently or found other ways to deny meaningful coverage. Yesterday, when they pulled the same stunt yet again for one of my recent claims, I finally sat down and did the math. And what I found was infuriating: * **Total amount claimed (across multiple years):** $18,785.07 * **Total amount paid by Trupanion:** $4,074.02 * **Percentage of total expenses actually covered:** **21.69%** And this doesn’t even factor in the **monthly premiums** I paid on top of it. When I do the math, I might as well have **skipped insurance altogether** and just covered my pet’s medical bills myself. It would have cost me about the same, if not less. Now, I am considering switching to a different pet insurance. While they have a waiting period for **curable pre-existing conditions**, I am **happy to wait it out**—because let’s be honest, Trupanion isn’t paying for those conditions anyway. At this point, I might as well **put everything out of pocket** while I wait for better coverage. If you're considering Trupanion, **think twice**. Their deductible structure sounds promising, but their classification loopholes mean you might **never actually reach it** for conditions you thought were covered. At this point, I feel like I’ve wasted money that could have gone directly into my pet’s care instead of into an insurance plan that gave me little in return. I wouldn’t recommend Trupanion to anyone expecting true financial relief from pet medical expenses. **Save your money, start an emergency pet fund, and skip the frustration!**
