I was just notified by Amica they will be dropping me in June due to having 2 previous claims in 2022 and 2023. Both were from individual pipe bursts Amica fixed. I’ve resolved further issues by paying out of pocket to repipe the entire house in 2024. Amica was aware of the re-piping but was still not interested in keeping me on. I do not live in a fire zone. I’ve been told no by several insurance companies stating because i’ve had water damage claims, I’m ineligible for their coverage, even though I’ve completely repiped my home last year. I have tried working with two different independent insurance brokers, both haven’t had success. One found a home policy for $18,000/year. Not including auto and umbrella. I was paying $4500 all in. Anyone have any luck getting coverage in a similar situation as me, with previous claims? I’d love to avoid CFP and DIC if possible. Thanks

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.

I have a 2012 Prius V that was totaled in an accident. It has 40k miles on it (I got it from an eldery couple who almost never drove it). The insurance company came back with 3 comparison vehicles, all were same year/make but all have 90-100k miles. They are saying that the "adjustment" of value for the mileage difference is only $1500... Does that seem right?

Aside from the appalling over 100% premium increase in my renewal this year because my dog turned 10, I've noticed two new things in my Fetch policy. If you have more than 50 claims they can remove discounts and lower coverage. I always knew if you had a lot of claims it would cost you BUT how is the 50 counted? Every prescription claim counts? My dog gets 4 prescriptions a month, some only 10 bucks but it might increase my plans because of the number 50?? Next is the sublimit on prescriptions. Shouldn't be surprised when I saw them add their own pharmacy option. So if you use their preferred pharmacy that's waived. Great. But 2 of my dogs prescriptions are compounded eye drops and not available on their site. Nothing I can do about that? Has anyone ran into issues with these two new policy changes? Mostly worried about the claim one. I probably submit 4 to 5 a month of just meds. I used to put them all in one claim once a month but they kept messing up that way 🙄

I rescued a new 11 week old puppy and 24 hours later he was hospitalized for 3 days with cystoisospora, a parasite, and severe malnutrition. The rescue kept him in awful conditions and he was caked in stuff (food? Feces?) when I picked him up. He is coming home today with fair odds of survival and I am shopping for a new plan for him. I have a 30 day policy with Trupanion from the rescue but they don’t cover parasites (wtf). I’ve already spent $8500 on his care. He’s going to need a lot of frequent fecal samples and re-checks of his bloodwork. He also needs another round of de-worming. Does anyone have recommendations?

So, how do you go about selecting a breed when buying pet insurance when you have a mutt? I did a DNA test on my dog and she's like 2/3 Cattle Dog and Chihuahua, and then 1/3 3 other breeds. I bought Pumpkin Insurance and selected Mixed Breed 11-25 pounds (she's 22 pounds and shouldn't get any bigger). Here's the kick in the pants- I asked what to do if she gets more than 25 pounds. They said, well, they won't accept Mixed Breed and they base breed on vet records. Why...why do they even have Mixed Breed as an option, then?? It's going to cost me an extra $136 a year to change her to a Cattle Dog Mix. It frustrates me because my dog weighs 10-27 pounds less than the average ACD. I can still cancel Pumpkin, and I'm tempted. But will it be any better with any other company? I assume they all operate the same way.

I'm going to keep this as short and to the point as possible.. Before my job forced us to change insurances, my BCBS plan had an all inclusive copay, meaning when I visited my specialist(or anyone for that matter), I paid $70. That was it. I had been getting bimonthly infusions that cost just under $10,000. All covered under the $70 copay. Rad. When we were forced to switch, we had our choice of hundreds of plans. I tried SO DAMN HARD to get insurance plans to tell me what my infusions would cost under their specific plans and got stonewalled every step of the way. I had all of my billing codes and everything. Long story short, I ended up choosing one that I believed had a similar setup to my last plan: all inclusive copay. Turns out, it is, but they are trying to bill me for the prescription used during the procedure($9,000+). I have to pay for that($300 specialty tier med) AND the copay. They couldn't explain why that is a loophole. My infusion is a buy and bill, which means it is billed under MEDICAL, not prescription benefits. What am I missing here?? TLDR: "All inclusive copays" have loopholes apparently?

Currently have State Farm (been with them for 12+ years), and just learned that the defensive driving and good grades no longer available for teen drivers. Just the defensive driving and steer clear. Is that the new norm for insurance companies? Trying to obtain as many discounts for my teen driver that he could be available for. Didn't know if it was time to shop around!?!? ETA: Next best option to shop around to? State Farm was pretty reasonable when I added him, and has been good to work with. Bummed about the news.

Hi guys. I have Pets Plus Us for my cats. A little while ago my cats were exhibiting signs of asthma, the vet said that if it’s only infrequently then he doesn’t see the need for medication but that if I really wanted to he could give us a trial amount of prednisone to see how it works. I agreed, and when I submitted the documents the insurance wouldn’t cover it because the doctor wrote in the notes that I insisted on trying the meds not the doctor. Anyways, rewind to now. My cat has a serious case of diarrhea. The vet suggested a PCR. However since he’s an indoor cat I highly doubt any parasite or virus will be the issue. My friend who works at a different vet clinic recommended I get my vet to do an ultrasound. However, I’m very nervous to suggest this myself instead of my vet suggesting it because I’m worried my insurance will deny the claim if the vet writes in the notes that “owner requested an ultrasound be done” instead of the vet being the one to suggest it. Is this a real concern? If I want insurance to cover any treatment or diagnostics, should I avoid making and suggestions or requests to the vet so that any tests that are done are only at the suggestion of the vet? Money is a big concern right now since I lost my job so I don’t want to risk getting my claim denied. Thank you in advance!

I recently bought a car is a Hyundai accent 2019. It has 70k miles but here is the problem; I’m currently paying 327.94$ for my car insurance with Geico and that is insanely expensive. I know that I can change my car insurance after 6 month, but I want to know if someone know a cheaper car insurance or something that I could do for make it cheaper after the 6 months. I’m 20 year old and I’m new in the USA. Please I need some advice.
