Okay so I have a new vehicle, and I decided to use Root Insurance. Usually the insurance websites automatically add comprehensive and collision when you state it's financed. So I thought it had. Anyway, it was liability only. Now last week there was a hailstorm and it did some damage to the car. Not hardcore but it js noticeable up close. What can I do? All I can do is fix it right with my own money? Will the bank go after me? I'm just so lost right now any advice would be appreciated.

Hi all, I'm leaving my current job and I have another position that pays higher than where I'm at right now, but no employee health plan. I'm in CA. Right now I'm looking at marketplace plans for my spouse (33M) and I (31F). We don't use much when it comes to health care. A few random visits here and there, I take a few daily mental health meds but that's it. However, we do want to start a family in the next year so I'm trying to keep that in mind. I've always been on an employer PPO, so that's what I'm used to. My top options currently are Blue Shield of CA PPO, or Kaiser Gold HMO. From what I've seen blue shield is one of the few companies that will offer PPO on the marketplace. I've looked at some of the cheaper plans through multiple companies but since most of them have coinsurance, I worry I could rack up quite a bit if I were to get pregnant/deliver. We earn too much to qualify for financial help/ACA plans as well. Here's my question - how much does Kaiser's HMO plans differ from their PPO? Is it really a big difference since it's all in one system? I know there are issues with Kaiser and it seems people either love it or hate it. But it seems like their HMO plan is cheaper with better coverage (particularly for maternity) than a similar PPO through blue shield. Anything I'm missing here? Any advise or prior experiences would be helpful.

Carvana Location: New York I’ve had my Subaru from Carvana since 2023. I recently (3 weeks ago) bought a truck on Carvana. Three days ago I was pulled over in my Subaru and the cop told me the plates were registered to my truck. He gave me 2 tickets. I have been unable to drive because Carvana still has not fixed this. My digital glove box on Carvana has all my truck information. I can’t drive the Subaru because they totally unregistered it. The truck is my brothers. Carvana says they have no idea what happened on their end. They told me they have no idea when it will be resolved. I live in the

**Location:** Birmingham, UK **Type of Insurance:** Home Insurance (Subsidence Claim) I'm sharing my experience dealing with what I believe is systemic fraud by Royal & Sun Alliance Insurance (RSA) and their loss adjusters, Crawford & Company. After 4.5 years of battling for a fair resolution to my subsidence claim, I've submitted a formal escalated criminal complaint to the Chief Ombudsman following their recent decision (PNX-5126400-B7P5, January 24, 2025). # Background In September 2020, I filed a subsidence claim with RSA. The Ombudsman has already acknowledged RSA's "shockingly poor service" and "significant avoidable delays" in their decision. However, my complaint goes much deeper than poor service. # The Evidence I've Gathered Over these years, I've collected substantial evidence of what appears to be deliberate misconduct: 1. **Fabricated Complaints**: RSA created three fake complaints (January 30, September 26, and December 7, 2024) to manipulate regulatory timelines and circumvent proper oversight. 2. **Falsified Technical Documents**: Key claim documents including the Schedule of Works (SOW), Certificate of Structural Adequacy (CoSA), and Forms of Acceptance (FOAs) appear to have been fabricated. Metadata analysis reveals these were created in 2024 but backdated to 2021. 3. **Data Protection Violations**: My Data Subject Access Request (DSAR) came back with approximately 73 critical documents fully redacted and many (around 50+) others improperly withheld. 4. **Claim Reference Manipulation**: RSA repeatedly changed my claim references (from SU2004338 to 1781135 to 202405326), seemingly to obscure the complaint history and make tracking impossible. 5. **Conflicts of Interest**: The person investigating my complaints at RSA was directly implicated in the issues I was complaining about. # Most Concerning Evidence What troubles me most is that when I examined the Certificate of Structural Adequacy, it falsely claimed that Leo Horsfield (the structural surveyor) recommended removing an ash tree that had already been felled two years before they were even involved in my case. This demonstrates deliberate falsification, not just an administrative error. Similarly, the Schedule of Works was created on April 30, 2024 (proven by metadata), yet RSA claimed it existed since July 2021. When challenged, they couldn't produce the original document. # Where Things Stand Now The Ombudsman's decision acknowledged the poor service but couldn't address the potential fraud due to their limited remit and outside timeframes of this particular complaint. I've now escalated to the Chief Ombudsman, with copies to the Financial Conduct Authority, Information Commissioner's Office, and Serious Fraud Office. My 122-page complaint (filed 02.03.2025) meticulously documents every falsified document, fabricated complaint, and regulatory breach with supporting evidence. I believe RSA's actions go beyond poor service into potentially criminal territory. # What I Hope For I'm sharing this to warn others and hopefully connect with people who may have experienced similar issues. I also hope that by bringing awareness to this case, the regulatory bodies will give it the serious attention it deserves. Has anyone else experienced anything like this with RSA or other insurers? Any advice on navigating this process would be greatly appreciated.

I got diagnosed with sleep apnea and I was delaying my treatment because I found out that its very expensive. After a few months, the cpap company based in Houston, TX reached out again that my deductible has been met and I just owe 171$ and then insurance will take the charges. After I started my sleep apnea treatment, I got the call again from the medical company that they made a mistake on their end and the benefit information was not correct. So now, they are asking me to pay 45$ for supplies and 65$ for cpap rental every month till the payments are complete. I am just a loss of what the hell is this! I get screwed up and left with more charges for a treatment which was quoted wrongly to me. I called Blue Cross Blue Shield OF TX and they said they cannot help me. My current insurance is ending in one month and I am changing insurance from next month. So, it doesn’t make sense why pay deductible towards an insurance which will not be there in 30 days. What are my rights?

I was paying my mortgage online, noticed that mortgage paid my hazard insurance at $4860, when I was paying like $2800 prior year, called agent and asked Wtf, 10 days later he got it to 3800/yr, cars at Geico because best rate, Went to GEICO for homeowners and bundled with my car insurance now $2,680. Also GEICO takes 10minutes to get a quote.

Just sharing an experience that may be helpful to others. I signed upon or Trupanion about 4 years about based upon Wirecutter's review at the time saying that their increases over time were modest and product was good. When I got my puppy four years ago, the rate was $70 month. Fast forward three and a half years and my rates were $103 ( not too modest in my opinion). I just got an email saying that my rates were going from $103 to $135. That's an astronomical increase in my opinion. It got me wondering what Im going to be paying when my dog is 11 years old and he may need the insurance, $300/month? More?I decided it was no longer for me and I wanted to cancel. Customer service was relatively good till this point. But when I wanted to cancel they made it EXTREMELY difficult. I could find nowhere on the website to cancel until finally finding some back alley link that said I had to call them on the phone to cancel. Annoying... shady... but fine. I called them and waited on hold for five mins for someone to take my info. They did, then they said they had to transfer me to the cancelation department. Shock and surprise it was a 20 minute wait. When I got the agent on the phone, they needed to take all the same info again, and then I was forced to sit through a 15 minute scripted summary of why my cancellation was a bad idea and why their rate hike was justified rather than them just taking my info and cancelling the subscription. They told me if I hung up and didn't listen to the whole spiel my insurance would not be cancelled. The whole thing felt like a forced captivity last ditch effort sales pitch to keep me, rather than facilitating what it was I called to do. Really disappointing customer service. To not have an online option to cancel in today's day and age is egregious. Forcing people to to listen to a sales pitch is customer relations malpractice.

Hi, My one year old cat had to go to the vet this week for a limp. I processed his paperwork and submitted a claim toward his deductible and Spot denied it. Looks like he needs surgery and it’s going to be costly- I’m worried they will deny this too. Am I able to switch insurance companies now if I’m having issues with spot? Or would a new company just not cover this at all? This is my first pet with insurance and I’m frustrated.

My wife has started seeing a new therapist who she seems to really like. The therapist is out of network for our insurance (Cigna) and I think does only self-pay, but issues a superbill at the end of the month that we can submit for reimbursement. This superbill contains her NPI number but not her TIN. I have submitted claims with these superbills to Cigna but they have been denied due to lacking a TIN. After seeing the denials I googled and found that this provider is a sole proprietor therefore her TIN is actually her SSN, and that it is a relatively common practice for solo therapists to be structured this way instead of through an LLC. If she declines to provide a TIN to our insurance company is our only recourse finding a different provider? I’m not going to ask my wife to switch but just want to understand the lay of the land.

Can someone help me with Lemonade pet insurance? My pet policy is 80% reimbursement, $250 deductible, $10,000 annual. My dog went to the vet to get a mass checked out and got bloodwork done. My plan doesn't cover exams or bloodwork. Cytology was $185 and fine needle aspiration was $40. In this case, the eligible cost that would go towards the deductible is the cytology exam and fine needle aspiration, which adds up to $225. I was under the impression Lemonade paid out 80% AFTER the deductible is met. But Lemonade just got back to me, and it shows that they covered 80% of the $225, which is $180. Which means I still have to pay $70 until my deductible is met, instead of $25. I thought the 80% was only for reimbursement after the deductible, not 80% coverage of the deductible. Is this how all pet insurance work?
