My dog was thrown off a balcony by what I believe was the neighbors kid. Broke both of her front legs. I have the police involved and investigating. The vet bill was over $13k. Her bones are being fused to reduce the chance of lifelong pain from this. Here’s the deal, I put $5000 down for the surgery (and paid another $1500 for the initial emergency vet visit.) The claims rep is asking for proof the balance I owe the vet is 0 and that the invoice is paid in full. I read the policy and there’s nothing in there that says I have to prove that it was paid in full. The closest I found was this: “Submitting your claim To expedite your claim review, please file your claim as soon as you can. However, in cases where this isn't possible, we'll accept claims for review up to 180 days from the date of treatment. We require itemized invoices and receipts detailing your pet's information, date of treatment, cost of the services, and the vet's information. You must provide all requested information and documentation during the claims process. All claim payments will be made to you, unless otherwise assigned by you and agreed to by us.” I pointed this out, told the agent I provided all the listed information and also pointed out that she has already tried two times to falsely deny my claim. (Initially she said I had coverage with someone else then said my policy was canceled.) I also asked her where in the policy I am required to provide what she is asking. Can they force me to pay this in full before they refund me? I put the $5000 on credit cards with a 40% interest rate so I’m trying to get this resolved asap. I’m beyond stressed, but thankful the vet at least allowed us to put $5000 for surgery instead of forcing us to put her down because I don’t have access to that sort of money. Even the $5000 was difficult to acquire. Yes I realize now I made a bad insurance decision but that doesn’t help me in this immediate moment.

I got auto insurance through progressive and was given a good quote so I sent in all the info I needed and got insured. I then bundled my home insurance because the price was so good. A month after that the auto insurance got canceled. They said that my license was not valid. When I asked for proof of this they said they had none. The state had just notified them that it was invalid. My license is valid and I even recently got a notification letter from the state to renew my license because it expires later this year. Now my only option was to start another policy with them and this quote was more than double what my original quote was. I feel like I got scammed to switch over.

I am looking everywhere for insurance and the best rates I could find are around $1,200+/mo for 10 months. I know I am a new driver but that price is WILD!! Any helpful comments would be appreciated.

So my son receives ABA services through a tier 1 provider. This goes through deductible and coinsurance. $650 individual deductible, $2000 coinsurance (minus prescription and copay, solely for him, the numbers mentioned don't apply to family deductible). $0 is covered until the $650 is hit, 80% is covered until $2000 is hit, then 100% covered after. So I call up insurance because last year's bills are much higher than expected. I don't even know the total yet for just last year. And I can't look at the online EOBs yet until tomorrow. So, $650 is covered very quickly. Then there's a $6000 bill (for one date of service) sent to insurance. 80% is covered, we cover 20%. This is where I get so confused. Apparently because the first day wasn't processed first ($11,000) and this $6000 was processed first, she said we are actually paying so much less money overall for the year. We have to pay for the 20%... But it doesn't sound like it counts towards the $2000? We might be paying a total of $4,000-$5,000 once this is all said and done. It went like this... "So if I've already paid the $2,000 towards ABA, why do I have to pay over that?" "Because you're responsible for 20% after the $650 is paid until you reach the $2,000. You're actually paying so much less because that $11,000 wasn't processed first, so you're coming out on top. Otherwise you would have had to pay $2,2000." My brain hurts. I don't know what's going on. That would have put me over the $2,000 and it sounded like he still wouldn't have been considered as reaching the $2,000.... Someone please explain 😭

I purchased Lemonade insurance for my mother’s dog last year because she thought he was having seizures. However he wasn’t. I put his age as the same as my dog. Because that is what I truly thought it was and he’s actually 8. Back story we “inherited” him and really didn’t know his age so truly was a guess. Anyways fast forward to this past week. He became very ill and has had to spend the last 3+days in the emergency vet cost approx 7k and now I’m have a full blown panic that because the ages don’t align they going to completely null and void my policy and not cover any of his medical bills

I want to rollover my Fidelity Traditional IRA to my current 401k plan at TRP. TRP requires that incoming rollovers be done via a letter & and check made out to and mailed to me, that I must then mail to TRP. When I called Fidelity to request the check and letter, the rep I spoke to was frankly, shocked, and highly discouraged doing rollover via check and recommended I ask TRP to do a direct rollover instead. (I did, and they said no.) I am so frustrated that TRP is so outdated, and to be honest, the Fidelity rep’s reaction has made me nervous that something will go wrong. She sounded like they never do it this way anymore, and had to transfer me several times to get to someone who could confirm that they could even write a check & letter according to the specifications from TRP, and said that the request was very unusual. These people handle rollovers every day- is TRP the only one that does it this way? I much prefer Fidelity, and the only reason I want to do this is to open up the option to make backdoor Roth contributions in the future. (The traditional IRA only exists because I rolled over my prior employer plan to it years ago before I knew what I was doing). That being said, I currently am not yet at the income limit for Roth IRA contributions, but I expect (hope) to be there in 5-10 years. I wanted to roll over now to get it over with & because I know not all plans allow an IRA to 401k (reverse) rollover, and I don’t know if I’ll be with the same company when it comes time for me to begin backdoor Roth. Am I overthinking it in either direction? Should I just suck it up and do the indirect rollover (and not sleep for weeks until I see the funds cleared)? Or am I thinking way too far ahead about backdoor Roth and should just leave things as they are? (Or just complain in solidarity with me that TRP is super annoying and out of date with their rollover process - has anyone else experienced this?) Edit: I have been informed in the comments that if the check is made out to “TRP FBO my name” it is considered a direct rollover, which is great.

I need advise/help on how to proceed. I live in Houston Texas and have lived in my house for about 11 years. We had some hail damage to our roof that happened last (2024) and have had at least 4 contractors come inspect our roof nd give us a quote. The cheapest quote so far is $9000. My home insurance is with All State. They sent adjuster to take a look at our and finally say the damage they see is not much and at most would cost $3000 to fix which is below our deductible. I am so upset. I have diligently paid for insurance for 11years without submitting a single claim and now I have a legitimate one they are giving us the run around. How do I proceed from here? There is absolutely no way to fix the damage for $3000. How can I make the insurance company pay for this? I am lost. Please any advise is appreciated.

Hey Folks so I'm 30+, I had Star Health insurance earlier however I don't see that they are updated on offer good enough health claims for women specifically. I'm searching for a good insurance which caters to medical needs of women 30+ and over where things like Ovarian cancer shots, PCOS/Fybroid related surgery etc can be claimed. I had a very tough time convincing the policy manager at Star bazar to accept my claim for the same while it was a procedure suggested by the doctor herself. But clearly they seem to know my body better than the actual doctor (LOL) Could you recommend some insurance companies that do cater in the above factors and have better facilities available especially for women.

I was in an accident. I was turning and collided with another vehicle traveling the other direction on a residential street. Apparently an attorney is involved now according to my insurance company, and it certainly has me scared. We have a job and house, but we are barely surviving, so playing legal games is going to break me. It also feels very unfair. I'm pretty sure, if anyone was injured in that car, it's because it appears the kids weren't buckled. It was a mom and kids on the way to school. I want to the back to help and saw a dazed kid rubbing his knees because they probably hit the console in front of him and he was crying. Not totally crazy, like im broken help it hurts crying, but like mildly hurt but mostly scared. I have kids. That explanation wont hold up in court but anecdotally I think he likely was fine based on what I saw and my own experience from the crash. I had mild bruises on the top of my legs, not visible, but just a sore feeling. But I was buckled. And I had a airbag in my face and a little dazed, but when I got out the math didn't work out in my head with how many people I was seeing and the number of seats available in that car. there was a baby seat but no baby. that leaves 4 legal seats in that car, but I'm pretty sure there were at least 5 people in that car. It was hard to figure it all out because of the shock of it and one or two of them walked off to a school or were taken by grandparents that showed up fairly quickly. I bet Its too late to go back and prove that, and I doubt there will be camera footage of it, but there is a slight chance because there is a medical business at that corner, its at the edge of residential and commercial. I dont know what to do. I really dont feel like anyone should have to pay for bodily injury other than her on this, but maybe that is just me being an asshole. It just doesnt feel right because the likelihood that they were playing clowncar with missing seatbelts is fairly high, and it was such low speeds. I didnt hit them in the door, it was front to front. Noone should have walked away from that with any real injuries if you were doing things like you were supposed to. I had minor bruises that lasted 2 to 3 days and were never visible. I'm about to be broken by some greedy person that just wants to cash in and I don't know if there really is anything I can do about it. Fight or not fighting both are too expensive for me to survive. I auto lose.

I live in Colorado and was in an accident where the other driver admitted fault. Their insurance company (Progressive) accepted full liability, paid for the repairs, and told me I could file a diminished value claim once repairs were completed. I filed the claim with an independent appraisal from a DV business that valued my loss at about $4,000. Now, Progressive is denying it, saying I’m “not eligible” because I’m keeping the vehicle and not selling or trading it right now. Their email says: > “As you are keeping the vehicle and not trading it in or selling it, there is no way to measure diminished value as you’ve not lost anything.” This is a 2024 Hyundai Kona with ~11,000 miles, accident-free before the crash. My understanding is that Colorado law allows diminished value claims in third‑party accidents regardless of whether you actually sell the vehicle—it’s based on the market value difference before vs. after the accident. Do they actually have legal grounds to deny me just because I’m keeping the car? Has anyone in Colorado fought and won this?
