Hello! I was in a no-fault accident pm 2/25/25. The lady ran the red light and hit me. Here's the thing, my car is a 2023 outlander PHEV (57k miles) that just came off the lot and still had temp tags. I had the car for two weeks. Market value for my car states anywhere between 28k-32k. I called around to local banks as well to make sure I wasn't wrong in my numbers. Root insurance is only wanting to offer me $23,660. My car was in EXCELLENT condition considering it just came off the lot yet they listed it as Average. Additionally, they have forgone alloy wheels on the report for what ever reason. Am I able to dispute this? I already consulted a lawyer for the personal injury portion.

Hi everyone, I am posting here because I have had a very frustrating experience with my auto insurance with statefarm and am looking for some advice. I am currently a graduate student in Florida so things can be a little difficult when it comes to have to budget with this huge bill I have now. Basically I have had statefarm since August of 2024 and the first 6 months of premium was fine, I paid all my bills on time and when it came to January 2025 when my new auto premium renewed I had increased slightly my premium but the difference in my monthly payments were around the same due to the discounts I got. Then somewhere in February I found out I had been dropped from the insurance due to a balance of a surcharge for policy change that I did not pay for. They then dropped me without notifying me so I found this out a little later. Throughout the few months from February from when I found out I was dropped to July (when the 6 months premium ends), I have been trying to reinstate my auto insurance back because I feel a little anxious driving in Florida without having an insurance active. The insurance agent office was super hard to reach, I had to re-explain my situation multiple times because the person most involved with my case was never available to talk, and they always said that they are working on it and that my insurance is still active and will get back to me regarding the balance/bills which they never did. I had to keep following up and finally in June-July ish, they had my policy reinstated. But now I have this giant bill where I have to pay both the remaining balance and the new insurance premium monthly. The insurance agent told me that the remaining balance was about $380 spread over 3 months and I had paid for the first installment already so I should have 2 more months of whatever was remaining of $380. After that first payment, I decided to switch over to another insurance agent because of their lack of communication and how long they took to process things. I think this was my mistake then because after switching over, the new insurance agent said that my remaining balance was about $500 remaining still even after the first payment that I have made towards the remaining balance. Now because of this issue, I have to be paying $300 per month (remaining balance spread over a few months + current insurance premium for the month) and I feel like my previous insurance agent had screwed me over? Is my only option is to just suck it up and pay the $500 like they said? I am just very upset because they also never have apologized to me and made me feel like I was at fault as well. I tried to switch over to another insurance company but I have not been getting better rates (car insurance is ridiculously expensive in Florida) and I rarely drive (last 6 months I have only driven 2300 miles) and I have to be paying an enormous amount ($128 per month) for me to be barely driving.

Long story short. Storm came thru Pittsburgh region. Pretty moderate wind and hail damage to roof, windows, screens, gutters and downspouts. Had 2 adjusters that never called me back. 3rd adjuster scheduled a “ladder assist” inspection. Had 2 seek now inspections. (Needed a re-inspection since first one was done with a wet roof.) Adjuster 3 said “I put you in for a full roof replacement”. 2 days later I now have adjuster #4 assigned to my case. Adjuster #4 states “your old adjuster didn’t have the authority to issue you a full roof replacement, management is disputing your claim, we’re having a engineer come out to your house for an inspection, the hail in your area wasn’t that big in diameter”. It’s been 40+ days since the storm and I have an interior leak…. They just came out 2 days ago to inspect the inside. Has this happened to anyone else? What’s my next move? I have pictures of my roof from September 2024 when I had my chimneys re-pointed with no damage. Now you can tell I have shingles bent from the storm. It at a loss on what to do. Edit #1: 1” hail came thru the area. Edit #2: Correction to edit #1 - Roof is 10 years old. Looking into weather report now. 1.75” hail in my location. 60mph winds. 1/4 mile away a roof was blown off a grocery store. 4 of my neighbors have already had their roofs replaced.

I’m looking for employment in the financial sector and I got on a zoom call with a financial services company, companies name is Axium. They’re an independent broker using Primerica as their custodian. He kind of explained they’re like a marketplace for financial products now . 401(k)s, annuities, mutual funds, even rocket mortgage. As well as life insurance. But I have concerns because I’m a child of the 90s and I remember Primerica having a bad rap. Seems like they don’t have the same practices they used to. But I’m wondering if it’s worth it to take this employment, and if I’m just making something out of nothing. Does anyone have firsthand experience with Primerica as a client or employee?

I posted here a couple days ago about a stolen motorcycle (thank you all for reminding me not to commit fraud) and I called Geico about some questions I had. The told me I could get the collision and comprehensive policy right now, after the theft, and if the person who stole my motorcycle gets into a crash with a stationary object or another car and the motorcyclist is at fault I could be compensated. I got qouted for the coverage and it's $4,717.62! I paid $791.07 originally and the new total will be $5,508.69. I'm assuming since this policy covers the vehicle its more but $4,717.62 is absolutely crazy. I don't think I will be getting the policy at this point because of the depreciation on the bike makes it worth around $8,000 and the insurance would be almost half what the bike is worth. Even at rates of a new rider that seems fairly high. I apologize for the rant, QUESTION: Is this a normal quote for the policy on a motorcycle or is that something because I am a new rider?

I was rear ended in January and filed a claim with state farm The girl who hit me was in her fathers car which had state farm, liability coverage she has dairyland with full coverage. I am a State Farm customer (not after this) and was assured that this matter would be settled quickly. I was told by my first adjuster that my car was a total loss, since my car was newer that it would exceed her father’s liability coverage and they would open a claim with dairyland on my behalf to get the rest. They complete the estimate, do not contact me on what their assessments were and also changed my adjuster without contacting me whatsoever with my new adjusters contact information. I had to find this out on my own by calling after hearing nothing for two weeks after the estimate was complete. They said “maybe” my settlement would be 8k flat for reasons they seem to not be able to answer, they haven’t even offered me a settlement by this point. They said they valued my car at 11k. Which honestly would be a joke if it is 8k. I talked to my adjuster on Thursday and she is reading my information on my policy and for whatever reason State Farm has put that I have dairyland as my insurance on my claim. I feel at this point my claim has been handled with complete negligence and I am at a loss on what to do, I genuinely would like to move on with my life as this has caused me a lot of emotional and psychological distress. What are questions I could ask to understand this process more, or get traction with? Why would they open a claim on my behalf just to tell me to “do it myself” later on? I have never been in a wreck like this before so this is just another learning experience, but I do not feel as if my claim is being handled properly or correctly. Any advice would be appreciated, also please don’t be rude as I am already going through enough with this debacle.

I have had Embrace pet insurance for my dog and cat for 10 years and they have always been Awesome and I have a 90% Reimbursement Rate on covered claims . They have covered many claims and have helped alot . I do pay a hefty monthly price to have this peace of mind. I’m use to an annual increase that’s incremental but a 55% jump from 220 a month is just outlandish in my opinion to 340 a month now . Have you experienced a High Rate Increase also?

Is this a good comp plan for State Farm or should I look elsewhere? Hey everyone, I’ve been with State Farm for about 3 months now and just recently had my agent finally sit down and go over my compensation plan — something he’s been promising to do since I started. Here’s what it looks like (full document attached): • Base Salary: $35,000 • Auto/Fire Base Commission: 5% • Life/Health: 20% of 12-month premium • PTO: 8 days • Penalties: $50 deduction off bonus for every incomplete HH checklist Bonus opportunities: • Issue 5 life policies → +3% increase on P&C commissions • Issue 4 health applications → $250 bonus The issue is, I was also promised the chance to join the Aspirant Program, which was a huge selling point for me — but as time passes, it’s becoming clear that he probably doesn’t have much control over that, and it feels less and less likely it’ll happen. So, I’m wondering… Is this a competitive compensation plan for someone in my position? Or should I start looking elsewhere? I’ve got a background in finance and have been putting in real effort here, but I’m starting to feel like this might not be a long-term fit. Appreciate any insight from others in the industry.

Going from $113-$127, smh should I look into switching or would it be the same anyways?

A couple months ago my car was parked and someone hit the back of it (they were parked behind me). Luckily my dash cam recorded everything. I contacted the local police and they went to the man’s house and he admitted fault saying “ I didn’t think it was that bad”. I declined pressing charges as this man was older and In just wanted his insurance info thinking it would be a simple claim. Alas, here were are with State Farm trying to get me to use their preferred body shop and only approving 60% of the estimate. I know they tout the benefits of using their contracted shops but I don’t want to do that. I got two estimates from two reputable shops showing what the cost to repair should be but they don’t want to budge. I also understand that if I go to a non contracted shop then the shop can request supplements for more money from insurance to complete the repairs. I just don’t like being liable for any monies not agreed to by State Farm if that situation were to happen. At this point I’d rather just get the amount the two shops quoted me to fix it and go that route. I’ve compiled a demand letter requesting that amount, along with 10 days of a rental care cost. I think this is fair and hoping this will resolve the claim. Think they will agree?
