Last night I received a cancellation notice from progressive for “debris and hazards needing removal” and they said I needed a complete roof replacement. My roof is 13 years old but is in really good condition. No branches or leaves on it. No missing shingles. No hail damage or peeling. They didn’t even give me a chance to rectify the situation before sending me a refund check. The inspection report is bogus. The guy took the pics from the ground. I’m shopping around now but scared to get another denial by another inspector. I have high credit and pay everything on time. I have only ever had one claim and it was in 2024 and the adjuster said there was minor wind damage and we just needed to replace a few shingles which we did.

Basically myself and many many others have been scammed by this company. They have you pay the fee for diagnostics and then say they won't cover the item needing replaced. They offered me $500 for my washing machine replacement when the part alone for my machine was $2000. Here is a link to all the issues https://www.reddit.com/r/choicehomeclassaction/s/lijqv0C3xu Do we have a class action or should we all small claims court them? Who would I list (the ceo?) As the person on the complaint? They are already under investigation if you check the BBB website. Any advice or guidance would help. Location: Indiana

My wife and I recently opened a BusyKid checking account for my 8-Year Old son. We fell for the advertising for kids bank accounts online. BusyKid (BusyKid.com) advertises that they are a smart way to teach kids banking. For an annual fee of $48 (obviously high for a checking account), they have an app that allows parents to manage the child's money, set amounts they can earn for doing certain chores, etc. Kids even have the ability to send money to charity or invest in stocks. The app is fairly user friendly as well. The app i thought justified the high annual fee.... My son used the ATM for the first time yesterday. I had to show him step by step how to use it. The first question the ATM asks is if you'd like to see your balance. I encouraged him to select yes, so that he can view his balance before withdrawal. Today, we were reviewing his transaction and realized that BusyKid charges $1.00 for a balance inquiry and $1.50 for a withdrawal (on top of the ATM fee). To say that this shocked me is an understatement. I mean this company advertises that is protective of child spending. A fee for balance inquiry? My 8-year old does not have a phone. How else is he to check his balance? For whatever reason, I glossed over these fees when opening the account so thats a shame on me. But still, this seems predatory. For a company that is aimed toward minors, unneccessary fees like that is infuriating. Anyway, that account is closing today and I am going to do everything I can to alert people of this fraud of a company. TLDR: BusyKid charges fees for Balance Inquiries and ATM withdrawals to minors who dont know any better. UPDATE: I want to make clear that I take full responsibility for opening the account, and I wasnt duped into signing up. The fee's aren't hidden, quite the contrary, they are right out in the open as we were emailed a notification of the charges. It is only a $2.50 mistake, and also a little life lesson to myself and son to read everything before signing. Hopefully BK gets rid of those fees because everything else is really attractive for managing a younger kid's money.

Hi everyone, I wanted to share my experience with biBERK workers' comp insurance and get some advice or feedback from others who may have dealt with something similar. I had a workers' comp policy with biBERK that was fully paid and I canceled a few days before the expiration date. A few weeks after cancellation, I received an audit request. I didn’t fill out the forms right away, and shortly after, I got an email saying I owed around $500 as an estimated audit charge since the forms hadn’t been submitted. I called biBERK to ask about it, and the agent told me that if I filled out the audit forms, they’d be able to issue a proper audit and adjust the premium based on actual payroll. I submitted the audit form the next day. To my surprise, after submitting the audit, the amount due increased to $1,300. I called again and was told I could submit a formal dispute, which I did. I explained that: I’m a small business with only one employee on payroll. The policy was canceled early, before the full term. No claims were ever filed. I submitted the audit forms in good faith expecting a fair adjustment—not a higher charge. Today I received the outcome of the dispute, and they only reduced the bill by $77—so I still owe $1,223. I’m feeling frustrated and a bit taken advantage of, especially since the audit estimate was originally much lower and I submitted accurate data as requested. Has anyone dealt with something like this before? Is there any recourse or further steps I can take? I appreciate any advice or insight.

Hi. I have an HO3 policy with Citizens in Florida and I’m trying to understand in what situations they would actually cover water damage since the reps, my insurance agent or adjuster are not able to clarify this. I have a water damage under my flooring, but again neither the field adjuster, water mitigation company, nor the leak detection specialist have been able to find the exact source of the leak. Insurance wants to send out an inspector who I assume would work in their favor. I’m trying to prepare in case they deny my claim and I need to bring in independent specialists to help me figure it out. I have vinyl flooring installed on top of hardwood floor, and noticed a soft spot so I removed part of the vinyl and found rotten wood. I've never noticed any water on top of my flooring. From what I understand, Citizens excludes gradual leaks and seepage, but they have a clause that covers hidden water damage if it was unknown and concealed beneath floors, behind walls, or in ceilings. I’m wondering how that actually works in practice. Since there's no known active leak it must be caused by something situational, hidden or accidental spill. I'm having a hard time determining the fine prints since it gives conflicting information. I've included a few pages from my insurance declaration related to water damage in link below: https://imgur.com/a/sc50G9K Would Citizens cover situations like: - Moisture buildup under flooring due to a failed vapor or moisture barrier? - An AC leak inside the walls over time from a pipe failure or faulty installation? - Sporadic leaks from an air handler that was poorly installed? - A cracked condensate line or even a sewage pipe leaking beneath the slab? - Water spilled sometime in the past which got under the floor? Has anyone had Citizens approve a claim for something like this, or did they deny it as a maintenance issue? If they did cover it, what kind of evidence did you need to provide? I want to be ready in case they push back on the claim. It's been over a month already and I am not able to get the renovations started since adjuster wants me to keep it as is for now. On top of that the adjuster wanted me to keep the damaged flooring (with mold) bagged indoors. And he also advised that we live home since the mold did not seem to be a big issue from what he was able to tell from the photos (despite water mitigation company saying that it was over 10sq ft and asked that we find temporary stay since we have a small child until they send a higienist, which they did not get an approval for from adjuster)... I would really appreciate your help. Thanks

Virginia Medicaid (cardinal care smiles) helped me see a dentist for the first time in a hot minute. Long story short, I just received correspondence that the crowns I need have been "partially denied." The exact denial was worded as, "We decided to partially deny the request.". They did not elaborate on why. What do I do from here? They stated "Your provider can ask to talk to our dentist that made thsi decision." So, do I have to reach out to the practice to REQUEST they advocate for me? Or were they also now notified? I was so excited to finally make headway with my dental health. I'm feeling like the grandma from that one scene in the incredibles right now haha. Thanks for any and all advice.

My auto insurance policy with Progressive was ceded to the North Carolina Reinsurance Facility. I have a clean driving record, no accidents, no tickets, no nothing in the 15 years I've been driving, but they told me that ALL of their policies in North Carolina were ceded after Hurricane Helene -- even though I don't live in Western NC. I've always carried coverage well above the minimum but my coverages are of course going to decrease significantly and my premium has gone up by a lot, as well. I'd like to switch companies, but I'm wondering if this has happened with policies across the board in NC regardless of company and that now that I've had a policy ceded, anywhere I switch will automatically do that, as well. Can anyone clarify how this works? Any other NC drivers run into this with other companies since Hurricane Helene? I really hope I'm not out of luck and can no longer get coverage above the minimum anywhere. I'm happy to switch companies if needed, but I also bundle with

A few weeks ago I was rear ended at a complete stop. Had dashcam footage, etc. so all set there. I subrogated through my insurance and got my car fixed, etc. That is done. My adjuster said a diminished value claim would have to be made directly with the other party's insurance, Tesla Insurance in this case, however. I got the information of the Tesla adjuster - just a name and phone number. He doesn't answer calls and his voicemail is full. He also does not answer texts. I am wondering what next steps could be - I suppose I could file a small claims case for the diminished value to get things moving. It has been a while. I was hit in a brand new, high value sports car with a few hundred miles so I am *very* keen on pursuing diminished value.

Hi all! I’m trying to submit out of network bills to Oxford for my sons intensive out patient program. I’m getting denied for this reason, “Benefits for this service are denied. Your provider has billed more units than what is allowed in one day. The allowed number of units have been processed on a different service line. (CES024)” I’m in NY also Thank you

Long story short, we have never had issues with people buying and selling in our 6 unit condo building in Chicago until today. We accepted an offer and the lender reached out stating we needed **replacement cost coverage** in order to move forward, this is due to Fannie and Freddie guidelines as of June 2024. We have never changed our master policy provider and our bylaws specifically state that we must have **replacement cost coverage.** I have looked over our policy and it does not state either Cash value or replacement, just the limit on coverage with a \*attached for the inflation rider. Agent we reached out to has been non-responsive. Anyone else run into this?
