Hi all, Just got my car back from a shop. Took over a month after multiple supplements and back and forth between geico and the shop. Geico ended up being $1000 short still from what the shop wanted and I ended up paying out of pocket to get my car back. Geico said they would not reimburse me (when I brought it up), however after some research and speaking with some on reddit and the shop, they state geico will reimburse me bc of my policy with them. Can anyone provide any insight or guidance in how to proceed if this is true? Thank you

We were just kicked off our car insurance policy after 22 years of being loyal customers because my daughter filed a claim after an accident where she was not at fault, her 1y/o son was in the car at the time. Their reasoning for terminating our policy is that I didn’t list her then 3 month old son at the time of filling out the attention letter back in December. We’re in Michigan, how is this legal?

So I went to an insurance agent to enroll with kaiser through covered ca at the end of January because it wouldn't let me online and I was told I'd get my insurance card and stuff sent to me in a week or two well flash forward to today and I called kaiser to try and order an insurance card and they have no record of me at all. Called covered ca and same thing so I guess when I went to enroll through him it didn't work idk if he did something wrong or if it was a system error or something idk. This is my first time applying for insurance since I just got off my parents insurance and I'm not sure how to proceed. I'm not sure how to apply without covered ca and how much more it would be. Any suggestions I called the guy and left a message and haven't heard back yet.

Hi all, I have been losing my mind trying to figure out which coverage would be best for my pup. He is a 1YO chihuahua/poodle mix who was rescued off the side of the road at 3 months with a broken hip. He has had FHO surgery which did seem to help reduce his pain and allow him to put more weight on the limb (left hindleg). He loves running and jumping around and generally acts like a happy puppy, but will likely always walk with a limp. I'm aware he may develop issues as he gets older from compensating. We currently have Pets Best, which we have not had a good experience with. We have sent them the same documents three times and every time they said they did not receive it, even when I'm actively looking at the email to their claims department while on the phone with them. Then it takes a full two months for them to review the documents, only for at the end of two months for them to close my claim because they did not receive my documents.... and thus the cycle continues....... Which insurance would you recommend? Should I just suck it up and accept that I'm likely going to have to pay in full for any orthopedic issues? I'm happy paying on the higher end ($70-$100 a month) for more full coverage that would include exam visits, medications, etc, but I'm having a hard time figuring out which insurance would work best for my pet. Any advice y'all have to give would be greatly appreciated and save me hours of going down this rabbit hole!!!

Hi All, I’m here to both give a review and also ask a question. I’ve had lemonade insurance (wellness + accidental coverage) for about a year & 5 months now. At first, I really enjoyed it and didn’t have any issues with them, now I wouldn’t recommend if you have a pet that is known to get into incidents. I adopted my dog from a previous family who conveniently excluded his PICA issue. He is a 3 year old cavapoo who is notorious for taking anything he can get his hands on (socks, underwear, hygienic products, etc) and swallowing it. He’s had 2 surgeries (1 in March of 2024, and another in June of 2024). His first surgery was pre-policy and he was not insured with Lemonade. His second one I did receive reimbursement. We recently just went through another scare now in July 2025 (we have a behavior consult soon and take serious precautions, he is just VERY VERY sneaky) but thankfully, he was only hospitalized with fluids and passed the clothing in his stool, NO surgery was performed. Now, Lemonade is denying my claim to cover the costs of hospitalization due to “Foreign material ingestion being determined to be a Recurring Condition, which is not covered under this policy.” I reread my policy, and this is the exact language on it: “Conditions arising from a repetitive and specific activity that leads to decontamination (i.e., the induction of vomiting, stomach pumping, or treatment with charcoal), medical, or surgical treatment of your pet, if the same or a similar activity occurred two times within 18 months prior to the treatment date.” I’d like to add the claims specialist also got his medical records incorrect in her summary and argued that the decision was also based on the surgery that happened in March BEFORE my coverage took place. I got her on the phone and corrected her inaccuracies, but she is saying based on the recurrent conditions definition, those 2 incidents (March 2024 and June 2024) fall under the “18 months prior to treatment date.” From my understanding and the actual explicit language of the policy, how can the March 2024 surgery be considered if it predates coverage and there’s no legal language stating that pre-policy incidents are included?? Am I crazy or should I escalate this with DFS??, I am in NYC. Any lawyers’ thoughts welcomed!!

I was rear-ended last year, and the at-fault driver's insurance covered the $14,700 in repairs. Afterward, I hired an appraiser, who reported a diminished value of $4,175. Once, I submitted the diminished value claim to the at-fault driver's insurance company, they offered me $300 and then began ignoring my attempts to communicate further. After filing a complaint with the Office of the Commissioner of Insurance, the insurance company finally got back to me and offered $2,000. It's less than I was hoping to get, but I'm worried that pushing for more could cause them to rescind the offer and force me to go to court. So, my question is, if I try (and fail) to get more, will the offer of $2,000 still stand?

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

Need a new home insurance company! WILL NEVER USE STATE FARM AGAIN! They have been the absolute WORST! Looking for some direction here… What are some of the Best companies I should be looking to switch to?

Location: Oklahoma I need some advice and around march I had a bad wreck and totaled my vehicle . I still owe money on my vehicle loan that I don’t have right now, and my insurance company is stating that I need to pay off the loan or give them my vehicle back. The body shop said I did roughly $9000 in damages. But I had 2 different mechanic friends say that they can fix it for $1000 to $2500 max. My plan was buy the vehicle back and get it fixed for around what my friends told me. My insurance company is telling me that I need to pay the loan off or give vehicle back to them before they do anything. I would really like to keep the vehicle and fix it. It seems shady that it would have to go to an impound. What do I do? I have the vehicle at my home right now and I don’t have the funds to pay to have it towed an hour away or an hour back.

Help me understand this one. My wife was injured by my neighbor's dog, knocking her down and tearing her ACL (it wasn't aggressive, just large and friendly, freak accident.) Surgery was very expensive, went through my employer based insurance, no big deal. We start getting letters from Conduent, asking if someone else was responsible. Yes, neighbors dog and property. Gave them the insurance info, we all expected some subrogation of claim and I'd prepped my neighbors for that. Then I get another letter asking about what legal representation we retained in a suit against them. I called them and told them we haven't sued them. That we have a good relationship either our neighbors, it was a freak accident, and we aren't litigious. The woman sounded extremely skeptical and said something to the effect of "let's see how you feel about your neighbors in a few months. I'll check back in 6 months." It was the tone that really bothered me, sort of like "oh you just wait and see, you will!" Like something is coming down the pike that's really going to ruin my day and make me want to sue my neighbors. Can someone walk me through this one? Insurers work together in auto accidents without requiring litigation, I figured it would be the same thing here.
