When I turned 18, my dad made my start a Roth IRA with Ameriprise because I had an unexpected source of income coming in that he wanted me to put away. Well, since then I have continued to put money into that account and I talk to my FA semi-regularly. Well, I am now 22M and going to be making some real money soon and after some research, I see a lot of people saying to avoid FA for a Roth, especially Ameriprise. I am glad my dad had me do this when I was 18 but now I am wondering if I should move my Roth to something else. For full disclosure, I have put in $19,000 total, and it has grown about $4,000 in that last 4 years or so. However, I do not really know where to begin. Should I move my Roth away from Ameriprise? How would I move my Roth? Where do I move my Roth? I have seen mentions of Vanguard, Fidelity, Schwab and others. How would I choose one? Don't services like these also charge some sort of fee? Thank you so much for the help.

I've known for a while that ManyPets was merging with Odie but I (wrongly) assumed that the policies would be largely the same. Odie emailed me yesterday with the new policy and billing summary and my jaw hit the floor. My plan on ManyPets was an annual deductible of $750 and unlimited coverage with 10% co-insurance. The annual premium was $377.04. According to the renewal notice with Odie, there is an annual max payout limit of $20k, deductible of $250 and 10% co-insurance (so an inferior plan) and the annual premium is **$1799.42?!** There is also a billing statement for a Wellness Plan, which I never had on ManyPets. I emailed customer support immediately on Friday and they haven't gotten back. My credit card will be billed on Monday. I'm going to call them first thing Monday morning but I'm pretty concerned. Others who were on ManyPets - are you sticking with Odie? People who have had Odie and used them for claims, what has been your experience? I'm certainly not willing to pay $1800. I have a 7 year old pug and he's healthy/never had any pre-existing issues. But I'm concerned that due to his age, I'll have a hard time getting a decent premium on a new plan.

I unwisely booked a 4 day festival ticket that I don’t think I can attend. I have a pre existing condition and at the time, I didn’t consider how my impaired my mental and physical stamina is. I’m trying to file my claim but I’m worried because pre existing conditions are excluded. I’m seeing a psychiatrist and therapist about OCD however (which factors into why I can’t go all four days). Will Allianz accept this reason and documentation for it?

I'm on my mom's blue cross blue shield medicaid IL insurance and for some reason I was kicked off last month and now it says I'll be back on next month. My mom isn't sure why that happened. When I tried to make an appointment yesterday my bcbs insurance ID wasn't working when it always has. But I NEED to go to a hospital some time soon. Will my medicaid ID work or are they together? If it doesn't work does that mean I'll have to pay out of pocket if I go before next month.

I have TD auto insurance. January, I got into a ditch and called towing service. However, at that time, I had no idea that I could simply submit a towing reimbursement. So I called and opened a claim. Adjuster provided me an email address for towing reimbursement. No car fix was required. Now upon renewal, TD claims that getting into the ditch is an accident claim on file even though they paid 0 dollars on it. I called multiple times and they got me to the underwriting department for a final review. How would this go? Anyone has similar experience? What can I do if they still refuse to see me as accident free?

I have an interest-free card that I used for some remodeling on a property. It is interest-free for 18 months, so I charged all materials and labor to it. The first payment was due yesterday, and I set up autopay from the property's bank account. The autopay only had one option: "amount due." I naively thought that meant the minimum amount due, not the entire credit card bill. Well, yesterday, the creditor withdrew the entire amount from the bank account. The funds were there, so it was not returned. I called Chase (the card issuer) last night when I saw the transaction pending, and they said they couldn't help me since it was on autopay. I called my bank this morning, and they said they can't help me either since it is an ACH. They mentioned that I could possibly dispute it, but that process would take almost two months. Is there really no way to reverse that charge and pay them the minimum amount due instead? I got the card specifically to avoid impacting the cash flow and had a plan to pay it off while it was still interest-free. I genuinely did not know the amount Chase was going to deduct, it did not tell me when I set up Auto-Pay or anything. Am I just not talking to the right people, or is there really no way to assist me? ********* Update: Called Chase again and a manager helped me. She said since I didn’t have a minimum payment due, the option wasn’t there to pay minimum and that’s why I only had the “pay amount due” option. They are refunding me! And I don’t owe anything till August.

This happened a bit over a year ago. I was driving my girlfriend and her coworker to work and pulled over near the curb to let them out, at the same time another driver starts backing up so I lay on the horn but he hits my car my girlfriend and her coworker both were still in the car when it happened and saw everything. We get out and they are not communicating at all and possibly didn't speak english. Police were called and they didn't show up for over an hour and he eventually started trying to drive off. I follow through for half a block and he stops and backs up into me again. His "son-in-law" came after I guess they called him and he started trying to gaslight me into believing I hit him and theres no proof and that police aren't going to come. LOL. Police eventually pulled up and the other driver started to feign a heart attack or something. They even called the ambulance and the EMT didn't look pleased... I got the police report, report states: **"V1 STATES HE WAS PARKED WHEN V2 WAS REVERSING INTO A PARKING SPOT COLLIDED CAUSING DAMAGE TO FRONT BUMPER. V2 STATES HE WAS TRYING TO TAKE A PARK IN SPOT WHEN HE COLLIDED INTO V1. V2 CLAIMS THAT V1 WAS NOT THERE ARE THE TIME HE WAS REVERSING. V2 DRIVER WAS TRANSPORTED TO BOOTH MEMORIAL FOR CHEST PAINS. PO DIDN'T WITNESS"**. I got the insurance info and drivers info from the police report, called their insurance to make a claim. They instructed me to go to this auto shop and get a quote for damages, went there, the shop said they will call me about the quote. I never heard from the body shop again even after calling them they said they'll send it and never did, the insurance company never again picked up my calls after weeks of calling. I have liability insurance, with Geico and they said to file the claim with their insurance. This is in NYC, the other driver had NY plates but insured by a NJ company "Plymouth Rock Auto Insurance" Due to my girlfriend and I living together, Geico requested me to add her as a secondary driver, I told them she does not even have a license to drive and of course never drive my car. They sent numerous letters and emails about this. Each time I replied online and called in to explain that to them, they acknowledged and I thought that was over. They ended up dropping me, and I didn't even realize for nearly a month and then I was fined by NY for driving without insurance. Paid the penalty and started looking for other insurance. Nobody was willing to cover me due to a gap in coverage, possibly the accident being reported, etc. I was only offered to be insured by GEICO AGAIN LOL. They doubled my rate for liability insurance nearly $400 a month and I've been paying that since. Need advice on how to get what I'm owed for the damages they caused to my car.

Hey everyone! I currently have metlife for my one dog and want to add my newly adopted dog. They tried selling me on their preventative but I feel like when I get a new quote on their site the information is different than what was being pushed to me over the phone. These are the pictures I have. She said that all my dogs flea and tick would be covered for the year after my deductible but if I'm reading this correctly I would only get a payout of $75 for the year. Is that correct? That doesn't seem worth it at all. Also, She was actually so pushy I'm also considering switching insurances completely.. I've looked into AKC, Spot, and embrace but I need one that covers potential foreign object ingestion and AKC only has once in a lifetime which to me is crazy. My pup picks up stuff on a walk, chews on sticks, etc I'm almost about to put a muzzle to be safe. Thankfully nothing bad so far, but after my aunts experience of her dog swallowing an Avocado pit I want to make sure I have one that covers this just in case.

Is it even legal for Healthy Paws pet insurance to increase premiums at almost 200% in CA? This is outrageously high!! Anyone experiencing the same? #healthypawspetinsurance

Hi all, Like the title says, I'm having a super hard time finding insurance. I've reached out to Next, The Hartman, and Hiscox; I've been referred to Tivily and then transferred from there to Thimble who turned me down, and I have yet to be connected to anyone who can offer coverage. I recently launched a for-profit s-corp, 501(c)(3) fiscally sponsored disability resource center that supports individuals across the lifespan in my community. We're launching an adaptive equipment library, classes and services, 1:1 peer mentoring, and community education. I'm the owner and we're a team of 3 volunteers. All of our service offerings are free but we're in the process of applying for grants and contracting with Medi-Cal, CalAIM, and SARC. We also are opening a physical center to act as a social/community space and adaptive store. Ideally, we will be expanding our program offerings this year. Everything is on hold because I can't find an insurance provider and we can't get contracts without it. Any help and advice is welcome.
