MetLife - Good insurance for a healthy cat? Did my research and looking for more personal reviews
Okay so my cat is almost 2 yo and has no pre-existing conditions, has a primary vet, and is not spayed yet (Plan to, very soon!)
I’m looking for a good insurance that covers wellness (mostly blood test and spaying cost?) for the first year and accident&illness for the following years. I have gotten some quotes and is eyeing Odie and MetLife for that, but every insurance seems to have bad reviews, or some would even call them scams.
Please provide me some experiences/takes on the insurance you use for your cat, thanks in advance!! This could be really helpful for me ;))
P.S. the reason I want a wellness plan to cover spaying is because there’s no shelter/low cost spaying availability around me and I want to be consistent with my vet :,) my cat went into heat last week and I don’t want this to come back again so really wanna do it sooner.
homeowner’s insurance - [US-California] Follow-up: Sued after selling home over HOA dispute and property damage claims
Hi all — I’m following up on a post I made over a year ago regarding a dispute with my former neighbor in an HOA community:
[Original Post](https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladvice/comments/17kskaq/neighbor_wants_us_to_remove_trees_trench_and/)
At the time, the neighbor was demanding that I remove trees and trench my property due to alleged view obstruction and root intrusion. I consulted with an attorney back then who told me to wait and see if the neighbor actually filed a lawsuit, as the demands seemed like a scare tactic. Their advice was to assume he might just be bluffing unless I was formally served.
**Fast forward:**
I sold the property and moved out of the HOA community. A few weeks **after the sale was finalized**, I was served with a lawsuit from the same neighbor. The lawsuit includes eight causes of action, mostly related to HOA CC&R violations, nuisance, and alleged property damage from tree roots.
**The plaintiff is still a member of the HOA. I am not.**
I no longer owned the property and was not a member of the HOA when the lawsuit was filed.
**My homeowner’s insurance is providing a defense attorney that will be defending me wholly but will only financially cover the property damage claims.**
They will not cover any claims related to HOA CC&R violations, "loss of enjoyment," nuisance, or attorneys’ fees.
The claims adjuster also told me that I could be responsible for the plaintiff’s full attorneys’ fees if he prevails on **any portion** of the case, even a minor claim.
They are pointing to this clause in the HOA CC&Rs:
*(i) Attorneys Fees.*
*Any judgment rendered in any action or proceeding pursuant to this Declaration shall include a sum for attorneys’ fees in such amount as the court or arbitrator, as applicable, may deem reasonable, in favor of the prevailing party...*
# 🔹 What I’m really trying to understand:
Does the HOA’s CC&Rs and this attorneys’ fee provision still apply to me, even though:
* I was **not a member of the HOA** at the time the lawsuit was filed.
* I had already **sold the home** and was no longer bound by the CC&Rs.
* **The HOA did not have any open or pending violations against me at the time of the sale.**
* The claims are mostly based on alleged violations while I lived there.
Is it common or even legally valid for CC&R provisions to be enforced against a **former homeowner**, when the lawsuit was filed after the sale?
**Has anyone dealt with a similar situation?**
Any legal insight, personal experience, or thoughts would be really appreciated. I’m trying to gauge how much personal exposure I truly have beyond what my insurance is covering.
*(I understand this is not formal legal advice, just looking for shared experiences and general guidance.)*

US Health Group - health insurance agent did my application wrong, what do I do?
I’m a 19F college student in Maryland and need a PPO plan because my school is in DC. I aged out of Medicaid, and since Maryland’s enrollment period is closed, I can’t reapply until November-January.
I contacted a health insurance agent, but they mistakenly listed me as male on the application. When US Health Group called to verify my info, they corrected the error, and my quote jumped from 140 to 160/month. I am a broke college student with no job.
The agent is trying to "fix" it and get us back to the original quote, but I’m worried this mistake of his will bite me in the ass when I'm older as he is now playing with the deductible in case of a life threatening emergency (before it was 8k I'd have to pay out of pocket and now its +20k).
I don't know what to do as I've never had to deal with insurance! Should I switch agents, as the gender was a mistake? Please help!
GEICO - Incredibly petty question about pedestrian (me) vehicle crash FL.
I'm probably going include an annoying amount of detail, so feel free to skip to the tl/dr.
A little more than a week ago, I was struck by a car while riding my bike on a sidewalk (legal in my area). The driver was turning right and only checked to his left. I slowed and thought he saw me (FL allows DARK tint). I was wrong. He impacted my tire and my knee only stopping when I stuck his passenger window with my fist.
My first words were "did you even fucking look?" at volume 24. That prompted a "calm down lady". I saw red about the same time that I noticed his EMT cadet uniform.
The officer who responded didn't ticket him. But the crash report is clear that he is at fault. The officer asked if I would be willing to allow the driver to pay out of pocket if the damage was property only. I'm not a monster wanting to throw barrels into the path of this young man's life so I had the wheel repaired and ignored the minor cosmetic stuff.
I texted him the $33 bill from my very reasonable bike guy. He swore he would send a check. (I do not want him having access to more information than he currently has). Well guess what? Yeah.
I'm just done. I want to make a claim on the policy on the police report. But it's GEICO, which us also my own insurance policy. Will the pidling petty little claim red flag me to my own carrier?
Tl/dr Emt cadet hit me with a car. Got very lucky with a tiny amount of damage. Will Geico ding me if I file a claim since he failed to self pay?
Progressive - Progressive added a person to my policy without my explicit permission
Location: Florida
So I'm frustrated with Progressive because they identified a person who was staying in my home temporarily and added them to my policy. This person has never driving or touched either of the cars on my policy.
They supposedly sent out a mail notice, which I could not find physically or even in my email, where I'm signed up for Informed Delivery and would be able to see any envelope that said it's from Progressive. I looked through my email to see the notices dated months ago stating the persons name and that if I do not contact Progresive by January 16 that they would add them to my policy.
I looked though the details of my policy today and that's when I found that they are listed as a driver. So I've been paying for this person to be on my insurance for the past three months.
I have to wait until Monday to speak with underwriting to figure out what happened and what to do.
My question is whether this practice is even legal in the state of Florida. From what I've seen, a lack of response of a notice does not indicate consent. My explicit consent was not obtained to make changes to my policy. I have not even talked to or seen the person added for months before the changes were completed.
Budget Car Rental - Budget Car Rental Won’t Refund “Loss of Use” Charges Despite Insurance Paying in Full—$1050 Withheld for Months!
I’m looking for advice on how to get Budget Car Rental to refund me $1050 that they wrongfully charged me for “loss of use,” even though my insurance fully settled the claim.
Timeline & Issue:
• Sept 22 – I was in an accident with a Budget rental.
• Oct 17 – Budget charged me $1050 on my personal credit card for “loss of use.”
• Feb (First Week) – My insurance fully settled the claim, and I have a signed release letter from Budget’s claims department confirming everything is paid for.
• Now (March) – Despite multiple follow-ups, Budget still hasn’t refunded my money.
What I’ve Done So Far:
1. Emailed Budget—Sent a detailed request with the signed release letter proving all charges were covered by insurance.
2. Called Customer Service Twice—Each time, they escalated it to the billing department and told me to wait 5–7 business days.
3. No Refund, No Response—Every time I follow up, I get ghosted or asked to wait again.
Why This Matters:
I am a student, and $1050 is a huge amount for me to have tied up for months. Budget has been unresponsive, and I don’t know what to do next.
What Are My Options?
• Has anyone faced a similar issue and successfully gotten a refund?
• Should I escalate this via a chargeback, BBB complaint, small claims court, or another method?
• Any suggestions on getting Budget’s attention and making them act faster?
Kaiser - Kaiser keeps terminating my insurance
Using a throw away account...
I have Kaiser through work. Since I've been on my current plan for the past 3 months, Kaiser has terminated my insurance on the last day of the month. According to the payroll company (ADP), my benefits are valid and from what I can tell, dental and vision (not through Kaiser) are also valid. I don't understand why this keeps happening.
The only thing I can think of is that it's a Northern California plan and I live in SoCal. I lived in SoCal when I selected my plan and was told it shouldn't be an issue, but now I'm questioning that. Last time it happened HR confirmed that it shouldn't again, but here we are.
This is a tremendous hassle every time it happens since both my husband and myself need to have our SoCal and NorCal medical record numbers linked and then it takes several days before we can access anything on the website in our region.
Does anyone have insight into how or why this keeps happening? I'm at my wits end.
Medicaid - Medicaid in New Mexixo
Location: New Mexico, USA
Hello,
I work at a bed n breakfast. I make $15/hr, work about 20-25 hours per week with some fluctuations, 3-4 days per week, and will not work for 2 months out of the year when it is closed. I live nearby in a camper off grid. No criminal history.
My employer pays in cash and does not offer health insurance or any benefits. I am working to apply for medicaid since my application for insurance through the marketplace flagged as possibly eligible for medicaid. They said I need a letter verifying my hours and wage from my employer. When I asked my employer for this, she said she didn't want to because of not wanting to draw attention to the business. So now I'm stuck without health insurance and wondering what to do. I am thinking that she may not be running the business legally on her end after this since she said she didnt want to have anyone from the state asking about the business.
I am wondering, if I contact medicaid and inform them of this, will the business be audited and ruined? She is very vindictive and I just want to be cautious about my next move. I want health insurance of course, but it is a very rural area and the only business for 35 miles in any direction, so a lot of people rely on it. Should I just quit? Should I just get coverage through the marketplace? I don't really have much money so I would like to try and limit my expenses.
Thank you for any information or advice.
Progressive - Progressive requiring I agree to arbitration to answer questions
I was rear-ended on the freeway (not merging, just came to a stop in traffic and the guy behind me... didn't stop). We exchanged info, I got an estimate from a bodyshop, he opened a claim with his insurance (a Progressive subsidiary). I also alerted my insurance that there had been an accident but did not open a claim. Now I got a message from Progressive asking me to answer questions about the accident. I know them asking for an account of the accident or even coming out to see my car is standard - but they require me to agree to arbitration and a bunch of other terms before even seeing what the questions are. I have no confirmation that the other driver filed the claim assuming fault for the accident so agreeing to all of Progressive's terms seems wrong before having more information. I would be fine emailing photos, my info, and an account of the accident to an agent but the other driver says he doesn't have the info of the agent assigned to the claim. Is it all automated to the point where there is no person that I can communicate with outside of this form?
Hertz - [VA/NY] Car rental crashed, reported to Hertz, been months, no letter of claim — what next?
About 3 months ago, I got in a car crash where the car got fairly significant damage (I oversteered into a tree). I notified both the local police department and Hertz about the crash, got incident reports from both, and moved on with my merry life (after getting a replacement vehicle from Hertz). I got emailed a request to fill in a vehicle incident report from Hertz, which I submitted the day of receipt.
Now here’s the thing: I didn’t have any insurance from Hertz, relying on secondary insurance from my credit card. I don’t own a car, so there’s no primary auto insurance to speak of.
My credit card insurance provider requires claims to be submitted within 100 days of incident for them to consider them, and they require a statement of claim from the rental agency in order to submit claims. I’ve gotten crickets from Hertz in this respect the past two months…and I’m concerned that they won’t provide me with paperwork in time for me to appropriately file the claim.
I was *considering* sending Hertz a polite but firm letter using certified mail asking them to provide me with a statement of claim in a timely manner in order for me to proceed with this claim given that I don’t want to wake up to a $20,000 bill from Hertz in half a year or something that my credit card insurance policy won’t cover. Is this a good idea? If not, anything else I should consider? I’d appreciate any advice!
Jurisdiction: the car was rented in Virginia with a New York drop-off. The crash occurred in Virginia, and I’m a New York resident.
