I have a almost 2 year doodle whom I just spent over 7K on for sugery to remove a sock.2 days after surgery the site got infected and the sutures ripped. I’ve been looking at pet insurance reviews but it all seems so overwhelming and it feels like the good and the bad are balanced. Currently i’m looking for a company that will pay up front which based on what i’m seeing that would be Trupanion as i’m constantly living in fear and has gotten extreme anxiety from always thinking he’s gonna swallow something again. I’ve always swiped out my savings to practically save his life. Any advice or help would be appreciated!!

Hey folks, I’m dealing with a frustrating situation involving my apartment’s property management and my insurance company, and I could really use some advice. There was a minor fire accident in my apartment, and the total bill is under $5,000. My renter’s insurance is willing to cover the cost, but they require the property management to sign a release form. The problem is, the property management’s legal team wants to make edits to the form, but my insurance company’s legal team won’t allow any modifications. So now I’m stuck in this deadlock where: • My insurance won’t pay without the signed release form. • The property management won’t sign it unless they can edit it. • My insurance won’t accept any edits. I feel like I’m caught in the middle with no way to move forward. Has anyone dealt with something similar? Any suggestions on how to break this stalemate? I just want to get this resolved without it dragging on forever. Would appreciate any insights!

I will try to make it brief but can answer any additional questions. My wife and I started the process to have a baby. I was insured with Kaiser Permeante (KP) and went to my KP OB. I requested a specific genetic test to be completed (in writing). The DR ordered the wrong test, and instead of the largest panel I received the smallest panel. The records that were sent to me with the results have the name of the largest genetic test despite it actually being the smallest genetic test. I did not realize the error until a couple of months later when my wife and I had selected donors and had to go to a genetic counselor to ensure we did not have any of the same diseases. I was unable to move forward with me selected donors because I did not have the appropriate genetic test. At this time, I was no longer insured with KP and was now insured with BCBS. I went back to KP a requested they proved the correct test, they were unable to without drawing blood again. I proceeded with obtaining the correct genetic test under my new insurance. While waiting for the results both of my two donors were no longer available for purchase and I am now in the process of locating another donor. My wife and I are black, and we are only interested in a black donor. There is a national shortage of black donors and the two donors that we selected were high quality donors (attorney and a doctor). KP has acknowledged their mistake (in writing) and reimbursed me for the cost of the incorrect test. Can I sue the doctor for ordering the wrong test?

I was with progressive and I stopped being with them after an accident happened that I was put at fault, even though I wasn’t. Due to my lack of knowledge of how to even report an accident. After I paid my final bill from progressive they issued me another fee and so I didn’t pay it and now it’s affecting my credit which I want to get the claim off, but I don’t know how to explain that I was charge additionally for something that I honestly don’t know what the fee is for.

I was on fetch but they have increased my rates a lot since I first joined when my dog was 4. Started at $60/month now I’m at $200/month despite never making a claim. I’ve read that fetch is a scam, but then again I’ve also read embrace and trupanion are scams as well. Does anyone have any insurance recommendations that are actually decent? She is in good health, thankfully, but as she gets older I want to still make sure she is covered, just in case.

My 1 year old, went to urgent care first and then they asked us to take her to emergency as she was having trouble breathing. We went to emergency and her oxygen level was 82%. A chest xray and couple test later she had rhinovirus and bronchitis. She was admitted by the ER doctor to the hospital. My insurance denied the claim because they need more info from doctor, from which doctor ER or the pediatrician that monitored her at the hospital I'm not sure.I have the sydney app it shows the bill for the provider and also shows the plan discount paying the full amount of that bill so my total is 0. Is that pending the doctors note? Not familiar with how plan discounts work, I have blue cross HPN.

I had a home claim, and State Farm issued a check made out to me, my mortgage company, and the down payment assistance program I used. I had both parties endorse the check (which was already kind of tedious process that took 2 weeks) and now US Bank says they won’t accept the mobile deposit because the payee doesn’t match the name on my account. I called customer service to explain, and they said US Bank won’t accept deposits unless the account names match. I did call after regular hours so maybe it’s an overnight service that has bad info. But surely 1) this isn’t a particularly unique situation and someone at US Bank has to know what the protocol 2) the standard here can’t be that I have to open up a bank account with both the down payment assistance program and my mortgage holder, can it? I feel insane that I can’t find any info about this online, so I’m hoping that means there is a way. ETA: Ended up having to mail it to a branch! But for future readers, no, you are not expected to set up an account with you and your mortgage lender, thank goodness!

Hey! I have a question. I reside in Tallahassee, Florida. I have one car here (2025 Toyota Corolla) and a car in Miami (2005 Toyota Camry). I informed Geico that the Camry is in Miami, and my sister is the primary driver. Geico informed me yesterday that they will drop the car from my insurance because they think that it’s her car (it’s my car in my name). They told me I needed the registration that shows the car is mine, and it needs to show the address where I’m at, which is the mailing address in Tallahassee (I go between Tallahassee and Miami). Anyone has been through this? Please advise.

I'm honestly at my breaking point dealing with BCBSNC. I’ve had multiple claims denied that should be routine — and I’m exhausted from trying to get clear answers. Recently, I had in-network bloodwork done that was ordered by my doctor. BCBS denied the entire claim — not even applied to my deductible — and there was no EOB at first. The exact same tests were processed last year with no issue. In Dec. I had a bad sinus infection, I went to urgent care, and even though the provider billed it correctly as urgent care (POS 20), BCBS processed it as outpatient hospital and denied the appeal. Last year, I also got stuck with a $1,300 bill after seeing a cardiologist who ordered a stress test at a local hospital. That claim was denied too, because they classified it as an outpatient hospital visit — even though it was a specialty care appointment. I’ve submitted appeals, contacted billing departments, and chased down paperwork, and BCBS just keeps giving vague, inconsistent responses. I haven’t contacted HR yet, but I’m seriously considering it, along with a complaint to the Department of Insurance. I’m using in-network care and following the rules. I just don’t know what else to do at this point. Has anyone else dealt with this kind of mess?

Hi everyone I posted here a few weeks ago with issues regarding Fetch Pet Insurance (formerly Pet Plan) and I have just had an absolutely awful experience with them regarding my dog’s recent knee surgery Basically, they are rolling out a “prescription sub-limit” on all of the policies they can and using that to cap any and all medical expenses as they relate to medications at 1,500 dollars. This includes any medications administered by a veterinarian and as I’ve been made aware, it includes medically necessary surgical anesthetic medications. During my enrollment call and upon reviewing my application of benefits, I was only made aware of the coverage I purchased. 10,000 dollars reimbursement, 80% reimbursement rate, and a 500 dollar deductible. There is no language on my application that indicates a sublimit. I just got off of a call with a supervisor reviewing my claim review and also my issue with this sublimit (as it was not reviewed with me in my enrollment call like it legally should have been per my enrollment application) The gist of the call was that “we can’t go over the whole policy” and that “we’re sorry you feel that way” even though the language of the application states in the agreement section that “I have been advised and have had the various other coverages and limits available to me under this policy fully explained. It is my decision to purchase the Coverages and limits set forth herein” All in all, if you plan to purchase pet insurance out of fear of surgical needs or expect for your coverage to be that which you go over in your enrollment calls, do not go with Fetch Pet. They are deceitful and intentionally vague in their policy documents and apply sub-limits without disclosing them to their plan purchasers. Thankfully, Fetch has still lost money on my dog due to the expensive nature of her surgery. But I will be looking at all my options when enrollment time comes around and consider switching because this company is unprofessional and blatantly lying to their customers. Now I have hit the sub-limit after one surgery and if my dog were to need another surgery this year according to Fetch I am SOL. If anyone has enrolled in Fetch this year or last year, please review your policy documents and let me know if they applied a sublimit to your policy (and whether or not the enrollment agent informed you of that sublimit)
