We got pets best insurance a few years ago and this year our 9 year old dog was diagnosed with lymphoma. After a few months of receiving expected claims, they suddenly started denying everything, forcing us to appeal every time. After appeals, they usually end up paying, but it’s incredibly annoying. But this month, our policy renewal came and they DOUBLED our premium!! DOUBLED, in the first and only year where we actually made claims…. How is this legal? They say it’s across all their plans, but I don’t believe it for a second. Anyone have this happen?

I was in a non injury auto collision accident with another vehicle. My car sustained much worse damage than the other car. I went to get an estimate at SHOP A and it's $3,000 to fix and only need 4 days. I then filed a claim through my Geico insurance. They say there is no fault on either party so we have to pay through our own coverage. Geico has set me up with their Auto Repair Xpress (ARX) locations. The ARX shop says it may take 2 weeks of back and forth with Geico to get my car back. And I'd need to get my own rental since my insurance doesn't cover rentals. My question is, can I use SHOP A and use Geico? Or do I have to go through ARX? How will Geico determine how much they will pay for if they don't inspect my car?

My 2024 Hybrid XLE Rav4 got pushed into a ditch while on the freeway with less than 7K miles on it. Opposing driver did admit fault and the car's recently been repaired. Subrogation is completed and I received a refund for my deductible. I have the total cost of repairs receipt equaling out to around 15 K and currently have one of my friends who works in finance at a dealership pulling up some numbers to compare my car pre-accident value and now. I have the police report and some pictures of damages. I already hit up progressive and they essentially just said to send whatever it is I have over but I feel like there should be more to it. If anyone knows anything about this and is willing to help, I'd appreciate it. 1. Do I absolutely have to get an appraisal and spend money on a report?

Hello, Considering a agree value policy for a 2004 Lexus LS via Hagerty. While I was able to get a quote and even approval online with Hagerty, before paying I wanted to talk to them. The wait times were pretty long. Is it a bad idea to deal with them when there is no local agent? Now, those who have agreed value collector car policy with Hagerty, did you do it all online? Or did you go with a local agent if there are local agents for Hagerty? thanks.

I live and work in California for reference. I left my job to seek treatment for substance use disorder and Kaiser is claiming that they cannot excuse me since I did not participate in their outpatient program. I met with a doctor every week and he prescribed me medication to detox at home from fentanyl and methamphetamine. However they claim that this is not considered to be under a doctor's care and will not sign documentation for those dates. Over the course of 28 days I detoxed three times and relapsed three times before they sent me to a third party inpatient program. I am new to the Kaiser program as of this year and they recommended I go through their detox at home and outpatient program instead of directly to inpatient in spite of my long history of substance abuse and my multiple stays at detox facilities and residential facilities. Currently I am unprotected for these 28 days but I am wondering if this is legal?

I was involved in a multi-vehicle accident almost two years ago. As the statute of limitations nears, State Farm who insured the at-fault party reached out asking for a blanket release of medical, work, and school records for a bodily injury claim. I’m obviously not signing that. My insurance already paid the only medical bill I had related to the accident directly and seems to have collected money for the vehicle and related expenses from State Farm. Am I obligated to provide State Farm any other documentation for the claims that have already been paid? Want to put this saga to rest for good.

As the title says I'm in a little bit of a rough spot, and am looking for some outside advice. I moved across country for a better paying job and saved up for a house. After putting over 50k down on a house priced at 240 with about an acre of land. I thought I did okay, I knew the house was a little older and would need some updating but I thought I was saving money in the long run and that it would be a good investment considering the area. Went through a realtor, had the house inspected, did all the normal things. But immediately things went wrong. Within two weeks of owning the house, the detached garage had a major leak and I had to get the roof replaced. The inspector refunded us our money but said that he wasn't liable beyond that. Several lawyers told me there wasn't a good chance I'd get anything and it would just be cheaper to eat the cost of the roof. So I did. Had to replace almost every appliance and toilet in the home because they all started to fall apart within the first six months. Again just figured it was my bad luck and there wasn't anything I could do. Fast forward to a month ago and just before the year anniversary of buying the home, the entire finished basement flooded. Insurance said since it was ground water that it wasn't covered. Turns out there were some big foundation issues that I have now spent over 20 grand to fix. Again insurance said that foundational issues are considered " normal wear and tear" and so not covered. After starting the repair process on that I've discovered a whole slew of other issues with the home that was hidden behind finished walls. And with my never ending good luck, I had a gas leak in my furnace that I found the other morning. I have turned the gas off to the furnace until I can get someone to repair it. The problem is I am already well over 100k cash into this house and I've only had it a year. Idk how much longer I can keep this up considering I'm basically bled dry and I haven't even fixed anything beyond the foundation yet. The wife wants to sell the house after we fix it all up and just get out, but I'm worried that we won't recoup anywhere close to what we have in and will be stuck back in apartments again. I'm not sure what to do or how to move past this place. Has anyone been in similar situations? Is there light at the end of this tunnel or should I bail and just accept the loss of all that money? Any advice would be appreciated

I feel like this rate is insane for me being by myself 21 year old male in a brand new $50k plus Cadillac, I do need the snapshot through progressive (absolutely hate that) but I have been told my policy is half what it should be anywhere else. Clean record but why is my policy so low? I have average deductibles and had a third party review my account and said the coverage is right where it should be.

I reached out to my State Farm rep about why my homeowners insurance went up 30% this year and he said “that’s just what they’ve been seeing lately” and offered to decrease my Coverage A and Increase my Dwelling coverage to bring down the premium. The total replacement cost covered would remain the same. He was selling this as effectively being identical if we would be rebuilding in case of a disaster, but something doesn’t pass the smell test. Has anyone else opted to do something similar? He was unable to articulate why State Farm would do this if the coverage was the same. He only Personal coverage would decline as a percentage of coverage A. Is there anything else I’m missing or anything else I should ask?
