Location: Houston, Texas On July 15th 2024, I was involved in an accident with a driver. It was a two-way street and I was at the middle crossing section ready to yield to the street I need to go. I noticed a driver coming out from the plaza and looked like they are waiting to cross to the street where I was coming from. Before yielding, I made sure no incoming cars and safe to go; attempted the yield. As I turned, the car from the plaza crossed the street and a collision happened where my front hit their side. Police was called but no report was made as they said it was minor. The other driver insisted the police to give me a ticket but they didn’t and sent us home after we exchanged insurance. After that, I did all my obligations with my insurance company and they denied claims from the other driver as they said it was not my fault and I had the right to yield. Fast forward to now, I received a paper said I’m being sued for personal injury but in remember the police asked the driver questions to determine if the driver need medical attention and the driver said no. I contacted my old insurance right away to inform them about the sue paper. I don’t know what to do from here.

So I recently got pet insurance with MetLife that includes coverage for injury (no waiting period) and illness (14 day waiting period). Only a few days after the policy became active, we were playing fetch on an embankment and he came back limping. Turns out he had torn his back left CCL. When I submitted the claim, it is being initially denied and the reason is that it was within the illness waiting period. My dog has never had any issues with limping and there are no previous notes in his vet file that he has ever had any muscular skeletal issues. Actually, there is a note that says he had "great hip mobility" from only a few months ago. When I took him in to the vet, they sent his xrays off to radiology and there is a note that says "has bilateral degenerative joint disease knee moderate left and mild right. Both hips degenerative joint disease". My question is do you think I will win the appeal that this is an injury and not an illness? He did not have any limping previously and it was directly connected to when we were playing fetch :(.

I have a high deductible UnitedHealthcare plan through work and my primary care doc referred me to a local radiology clinic for a mammogram and ultrasound for a lump in my armpit (everything turned out okay). I got the bill the other day and almost choked, $635! I called UH and they said since it was billed as diagnostic and they don't offer any discounts, they only paid about $50 and I paid the rest, essentially it barely mattered that I had insurance. I am 35 so they aren't covered yet as preventative. Should I appeal this? It's so much money after being laid off for 7 months before.

I’ve been paying for this insurance for my daughter since November. She has simply healthcare under the Florida kid care plan, and I can not get the member ID or even log into the simply website. FLhealthykids has been 0 help, how do I obtain this information? It’s crazy to me that it’s this hard to get. We never received a welcome letter/packet or anything :(

Hi everyone, the title is basically it. I have a marketplace plan starting last year. I signed up for autopay, or so I thought. Turns out not a cent came out after the first payment. There was zero notice. They said they snail mailed me something but I'm in the process of moving and my mail comes to my parents house. Not to mention if I saw something I would have assumed it was a monthly statement and tossed it. They had my email, my phone number, i received multiple emails but not a word about my account. I have a medication I order about once a month that costs around 2-3k without insurance and I'm racking my brain to figure out if it shipped after january. TLDR - bcbs told me that my account is just termed. I cant reactivate and need to contact the marketplace. Does anyone have any advice?

Location: Indiana I recently booked an Airbnb for a month. The day I was set to check in to the room I was staying in the host, who is live overseas in the EU, called me and goes into a story about how he is in a conflict with AirBnB and that due to this conflict AirBnB won’t give him any of the money that people pay to stay at his rental, he doesn’t really go into any real specific details other than that. I was desperate for a place to stay so I don’t really ask a lot of questions in that moment. He says that he will call AirBnB customer service to get a refund and then I can pay him the same amount I payed on AirBnB to his PayPal account after I’ve received the refund. I agree and I await my refund from AirBnB. I receive it and I payed him through PayPal as discussed. Around 3 weeks I start having various issues with the host, he’s calling me, stars saying I’ve got to do this and that, nothing illegal just various things like take pictures of the place to ensure his agent is keeping the place clean and making the repairs he is supposed too. I refused but I thought this was odd so I did a court records search on him and that’s when I uncovered that he was lying about the extent of the conflict with Airbnb. In fact he doesn’t have a conflict with AirBnB at all, he has a judgement against him and an order was issued to AirBnB to withhold all of the money from the hosts rental to and instead give that money to whom the money on the judgement is owed. I’m floored by this because I never would have agreed in the payment arrangement had I known the truth. I think what the host is doing is wrong and I’d like to go to the local attorney of those who have been awarded the judgement and/or AirBnB’s legal team to fill them in on the situation. My only concern is that I’ve somehow become complicit in this guys scheme through the payment arrangement and I could be putting myself in legal trouble as well. I want to do the right thing but I also don’t want to screw myself over in the process. Are my concerns valid? If so could I possibly work out a deal with the local attorney and/or AirBnBs legal team to be immune from any recourse for my cooperation in presenting evidence in this guys scheme to get around the order put in place to pay the judgement? I appreciate any input on this situation I’ve found myself in.

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!!

Cigna denied my claim for a “periodic oral evaluation-established patient”, but approved adult cleaning (two per calendar year). This was the second examination and cleaning I got in the year. Reason for denial is “N4 - This claim is denied due to lack of information. If you would like to have the claim reconsidered, please submit the information requested” I contacted Cigna customer service twice and both agents said they didn’t know what the information requested was and provided no course of action. Who can I reach out to to understand what additional information is requested since Cigna doesn’t know?

Hi everyone! We went with Pets Best for our kittens’ insurance, which starts for illness coverage on 8/21/25. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork was done last week in preparation for one of our kittens’ neuter scheduled on the 18th. The results came back a bit all over the place, which the vet wasn’t concerned by as he said it could be due to him being so young. However, the vet mentioned his T4 is elevated, which could suggest juvenile hyperthyroidism. We’ll need to retest in six months to see if it normalizes. My question is: since this was found before the waiting period for illness coverage ended, and there are no symptoms, no official diagnosis, and no specific treatment or medical advice given yet, do you think Pets Best will consider this a pre-existing condition? A bit stressed that if it does come back as high in 6 months, something that seems like it may be a very expensive lifelong condition is going to be automatically excluded due to an incidental finding 😅

My first mistake was insuring through state farm. My second mistake was using one of the preferred shops that state farm recommends. My liftgate had a dent covering 40% of the area of the surface plus it was bent on the inside frame. State farm insist they can repair this by bending the panel back in place and filling with bondo. This is the worst way to fix this door, but State Farm doesn't care they just want a cheap repair. STATE FARM IS NOT A GOOD NEIGHBOR - THEY ARE VERY DECEPTIVE AND WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR CAR REPAIRS THEY WILL SCREW YOU BIG TIME.
