I recently settle down with Geico for an auto damage cost and they sent me a link where I can put my banking information for direct deposit, despite verifying with the bank about the entered information being corrected the website still shows "please verify the information for accuracy" I even used a family members card which didn't work, so then they automatically issued a check which never came despite being more than 10 days, I called them again and they said there's nothing they can do but issue a new check or redo the direct deposit which I did and still failed to verify the banking information, I suspect this is a system error, I'm currently waiting for the second check but I'm very anxious whether the check is gonna come or not? What should I do in this situation. Geico isn't able to track where my check goes

FYI Thin Blue Line Benefits now has a company called Live Freely Health contacting members about claims. I got an email and then called them. TBL did not send out a message stating this would happen. The rep at Live Freely said they are just letting people know the claims will be processed. I personally call it "buying time" and would not give them any personal information.

Is it even legal for Healthy Paws pet insurance to increase premiums at almost 200% in CA? This is outrageously high!! Anyone experiencing the same? #healthypawspetinsurance

Long story short I was in a car accident and State Farm went from saying my car was a total loss , then now not total loss. I didn’t accept it because my car is undrivable. I have been fighting them for months and I am in process for interviewing attorneys.. I lost my job and my home because I haven’t been able to work without a car. It’s been months. I went onto my account today and I saw a check for $2200 it said supplemental payment. I called and an agent that wasn’t my adjuster, because it’s the weekend & she stated that it was for damage from the car accident that they are paying for. My question is if I cash this check in my screwing myself to go forward and suing them for more money and for what the car is worth.? I know that you can cash a check in New York State and reopen a claim. However, I’m not sure about going forward and suing if you accept the money. I know that on a paper check sometimes it will state that you waive your right to sue them in the future. The paper check would include accompanying documentation often with a waiver stating you release further claims by accepting it. However, it is a digital check. I really do need the money so I don’t know what to do and 72 hours to cash a digital check will be up by tonight, I also noticed on my account that the claim is closed and the car was a total loss!? Any advice on what I should do with this check would be greatly appreciated ! Location: New York

Is there a way to dispute your cars value ? Insurance gave me a value of $12,000(I think that’s HIGH) for my 17’ Chevy Cruze with close to 180,000 miles on it + body damage . I was hit by usps and the damage is roughly $6,000-6,500 so we tried to get usps to pay for the damage but they won’t exceed $5,400 because my cars not worth more than that to them (which I agree) I’ve personally been saying since I got the repair estimate costs that it’s totaled. Kellybluebook value is about $5,300, a car dealership gave me $6,000 for the value so HOW is insurance $6,000 more than the 3 of those values. If usps won’t even give me the amount of damage shouldn’t my Isnurance reconsider their value ?

Windshield claim, Progressive. Hailstorms for days. Deductible: $2000 Vehicle: Toyota rav4 2020 Progressive claims person asked do I want to get paid $2000 or pay for the windshield repair and have them pay the rest? I haven't had to repair a windshield before. I didn't know what to choose. Haven't gotten a quote but I don't think it'll cost 2k? I didn't even know there would be choosing. So before I do next step, adjuster etc: What... exactly am I supposed to do here? (I am feeling... cyberpunk dystopia atm)

I got new policy update and they was telling me that I can't get any better rate because I had 3 accidents it wasn't my fault. 2 of the accidents just policy report but never file a claim or follow up since it's not bad damage. Any advice how to take on this??

I am scheduled for surgery next week with a specialist. I’ve waited a very long time to get this care and am chronically ill from my health problems. I received notice from the hospital billing department today that in fact the hospital is out-of-network with my insurance. This is after at least 6 months of appointments at this hospital and with this surgeon’s office. My insurance was billed for the other pre-op appointments. The billing office informed me today that I would have to pay about 49k up front to even be seen by the doctor for the surgery at this point. I pressed both my insurance and the hospital as to how this could happen. According to the hospital billing office, they had my insurance numbers but not my card on file (I’m quite sure I gave them my physical cards at one of my in-person appointments). They said someone had entered the wrong plan into the system (one that was covered by the hospital) and just discovered this. Something feels very wrong to me, not to mention the psychological stress of having been preparing for a hopefully life-changing surgery that is likely to be off the table. I have the option to file an out-of-network gap exception or use another recommended surgeon, but I am enraged that this mistake was made. I don’t understand how the hospital could just now find out that my insurance is out-of-network. Can anyone advise—is this fishy? What might I do to get my surgery next week? My FMLA is approved, my friend paid money to fly to stay with and take care of me, and childcare and meals are organized. I find the whole thing unacceptable but don’t know how to advocate for myself. My plan is Highmark Blue Cross Community PPO.

Location: Texas Mind you we have been a returning customer for the last 9 years to the same salesman at the same dealership. He has always gone above and beyond with taking care of us with exceptional customer service to the point of even driving 2hrs to deliver our last leased vehicle in our driveway. So now the dilemma; we recently returned 2022 lease and signed a new lease for a 2025 at Infiniti dealership February 1st. After all the paperwork is completed we get keys for 2025 vehicle and drive home. Fast forward to February 22nd I see the reoccurring payment of $975 from the old 2022 leased vehicle. Then on 26th another one for $1130 for new 2025 lease which was expected. Wife contacts salesman and says he will look into it with Infiniti finance department. After a couple of days he tells us that Infiniti finance for the old lease had not yet received dealership check for the vehicle payoff, then proceeds to tell us after they receive it we would be receiving a reimbursement check in the mail “around” the same amount of $975 from old lease that we are no longer in possession of. Wife contacts Infiniti finance and they basically tell us that the dealership is at fault and it’s out of their hands. Now we are in April and salesman telling us he will get with GSM, but GSM is somehow always busy (out of office at auctions, yadda yadda). We have yet to receive the “check” or any further information on the matter from dealership. This our 4th vehicle through this dealership with no issues at all and now this. What route do I take? Anyone else ever have this problem? Do I take legal action over $975?

Trupanion raised by rate by 56% on my dog who is not yet 2. In other words, we've only had the policy for about 1 1/2 years. She continues to be in perfect health too, no claims. What a breech of trust! I've never missed a premium payment.
