I am going through Tesla insurance for my Model Y. I had a few aftermarket parts and vinyl wrap that needs to be replaced as part of the repair. The quote/check for the repair does not include just three items and the shop is saying that they will submit a separate claim/payment for that item after everything else is repaired and done. Additionally, they are saying that after all of that, I need to go get a quote for the wrap and submit that separately on my own to see if Tesla will reimburse me for it. Anyone have any insight on this? At this point, it has taken me several months to even get a reply back from the shop, I almost want to just ask for a check and get it done elsewhere or figure it out on my own. The only issue is the check was sent to the shop as a two person check, so I almost feel like I will be stuck with this shop.

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.

I’m getting fed up with navigating these PPO plans. 3 tiers in network, out of network. Lab fees from pcps being sent out of network and charged outrageous amounts specialty providers working out of our primary hospital apparently “not covered”. I know there are others on here with worse situations. Surely there has to be a health insurance negotiator/broker that will help correct and track these charges to make sure we’re not getting wrecked by these incorrect charges. Something like a rocket money that will work through the fine print in the insurance contract and make sure we’re not being overcharged. I’m here for all the suggestions. We use Ascension smarthealth for reference and if you’re curious about it, stay away.

I'm looking to insure a 2018 Chevy Cruze, full coverage. Was quoted $389 by progressive, and that's more than I can afford monthly. Looking for recommendations on insurance companies that might have cheaper/mor affordable rates

Someone hit my crappy but reliable car on the way to work a few days ago and their insurance (state farm) is trying to declare the car a total loss, but the cost of the car won't come close to getting me a new used vehicle of the same quality. The damage to the car is mostly cosmetic with only about $1000 in repairs required to get the car on the road again. But ~$4000 to repair the cosmetic damage. The mechanic suggested I try to call them and let them know that I wanted a lower payment in exchange for the car not being totaled but whenever I call state farm I'm immediately redirected to their total loss department. Is it at all likely that I'll be able to instead do a cash claim so that I can keep my car or am I just competely fucked?

I received an email recently that I would not be able to renew my 4-year-old cat's pet insurance through ManyPets due to the company no longer providing policies in the US market. They said I would be hearing from another company, Odie, about a new policy. I looked up Odie and it seems to have very low scores on Trustpilot. Has anyone else lost their ManyPets coverage? If so, who did you go with to replace it?

Long story short, I got a bcbs plan through the marketplace last month and I kept getting bills for $0.00 saying I needed to pay or my policy would be canceled. The first time I got a bill for that amount I went online and paid a penny. Then I got another bill for the same amount of $0.00. I figured it was nothing to worry about. Fast forward to today, I have a doctors appointment tomorrow, and I get hit with an email saying my policy with bcbs has been terminated due to non-payment. Non-payment of what? Nothing? Why?

Is anybody else's Figo insurance going up 40% in 2025? My rate is going from $425/yr to $700/yr. I reached out to Figo and they blamed inflation of all things, saying nothing could be done about the price. I was told Figo was one of the better companies by all my pet owner friends & family, but they have never covered a claim and at these rates it would be cheaper for me to just put aside $50/mo. Really frustrated and looking for advice.

A couple of weeks ago my partner was in a car accident that was his fault. He is going through our insurance (AAA). The financed car was totalled. After talking to insurance, they stated that due to him being upside down on the loan, he is responsible for the entire loan balance due to not getting gap insurance. I know he should have gotten it, but he chose not to. Shouldn't our insurance cover the fair market value of the car and he owe whatever the difference is? Checking our insurance, we have Collision "Actual Cash Value Less Deductible."

I've had Embrace pet insurance for the past 5 years, and this month when my policy renewed it increased by 88.5%. I reached out to them to get an explanation, and was basically told its because of the rising cost in vet fees, and "updated data" about my dogs breed, age, health trends, etc. I have filed a handful of claims for her over the years, but she has no major health concerns or chronic conditions. Every year in the past my monthly rate has gone up, but it has always been within reason. Has anyone else experienced something like this with Embrace or another company? I am going to switch providers since they are now no longer affordable, so would appreciate any suggestions for other companies.
