Back in August 2024, I rear-ended a 2024 Nissan Rogue, which then bumped into a Toyota RAV4. The damage seemed pretty minor at the time—both cars were able to drive away from the scene without any issues. I had $20k in property damage liability. Today, I got a call from Geico saying that the initial repair estimate for the Rogue was $3k, and they already paid out $3k for the RAV4. But now, months later, they say a new assessment came in after further inspection and the Rogue’s repair cost estimate is actually $14k. They also mentioned they covered rental costs for the Rogue. It’s been 7 months, and I’m just confused—why the huge jump in the estimate and such a long delay? Is this normal? Feels a bit suspicious to me. Geico also havenot told how much i have to pay out of pocket. They said they called me just to let me know. I am stressed and worried. What should I do?

I just thought about checking on my fetch insurance, went on to the medical record page, and found out that ALL my pet’s medical records were deleted!!! It says no medical records at all, but I’ve been updating my pet’s medical record since I adopted him in 2023. There are 4 records that I updated, including annual wellness check and initial baseline. I have the confirmation of medical records emails from fetch last year. I called them and reuploaded all the files. The customer service was nice but she said that she has no idea why this happened, and no further clarification on how to prevent this in the future. This feels so shady. Everyone with Fetch, please have the habit to check on your records regularly, because I’ve had experiences of them refusing my claim because I didn’t post annuals check up record every year. I can’t even imagine what could’ve happened if I didn’t think about checking the insurance today… still in shock

I was hopping someone could help me. My family is adopting a puppy this April and we want to get insurance coverage for it. I have read reviews online and here and it seems like people don’t like most companies because, shockingly, insurance companies don’t want to pay up. So I guess what I’m asking is does anyone have a recommendation for a company that reliably pays claims? I’m not too concerned about reimbursement times a month is fine, but I just don’t want to get scammed. It seems Trumpanion is very popular but also is 2x the cost of everyone else, To the tune of 1200 a year. It seems from the research I have done, Lemonaid, Figo, Fetch and Met Life have plans I could work with. Fetch being the cheapest and covering initial visits which is cool But concerning that it’s so cheap. Also is 10,000 annual coverage sufficient? I live in Seattle suburbs and have no idea what stuff costs. Thanks for any insight you all might have.

I made a claim via triple a and they stated I was at fault for the following: Tire debris was flowing through various freeway lanes. It was not safe for me to merge on to the lane to my left because it was flooded, and to my right there were other vehicles that would not have permitted me to merge in time to avoid the popped tire debris. I stayed in the lane I was an and the debris struck my vehicle, causing damage to the front bumper and fender. They stated I am at fault because I “struck the debris and could have avoided it.” Is there anything I can quote from their comprehensive coverage to not be labeled as at fault? Or am I at fault?

I bought a brand new 2025 Kia K5 a few weeks ago. I financed it through Kia Finance. I temporarily unfroze my credit to do so. It has been a few weeks now, and I have received two letters (one from Wells Fargo, the other I forget) stating that my request for a loan was denied because my credit is frozen. I think Kia Finance is trying to sell my loan and they cannot. What should I do? Is this going to cause a problem?

State Farm is discontinuing the policy for my 3-unit multifamily rental property. My umbrella policy is also with State Farm. My agent told me umbrella will cover the rental property if a new policy I find is A-rated (i.e. by AM best, JD power, etc) and underlying liability limit of $500k is purchased. Is it really true that the new policy for my rental property must be an A-rated insurer? What if it is less than an A-rating or not even rated at all? Insurance is insurance, isn't it? It is becoming extremely difficult to find a good, quality top-rated insurer that will write a new policy for rental property (building) that is 70 years old.

In early 2024 I made an appointment to start seeing a therapist, specifically one that my insurance (Cigna) listed as one accepting EAP. I called the office and confirmed with them they do accept EAP, so I scheduled an appointment. My six EAP covered sessions ran out around September 2024, so I called my insurance, got a new code for six more covered sessions, sent it to the office by both text and email (and also over the phone to confirm it was correct). Come March 2025, I’m on my last of the second round of therapy sessions covered by EAP. I check in at the office for my sessions, and they tell me an owe around $300 for my last several sessions. Confused, I tell them that EAP covers my sessions aside from an establishing bill of like $69 once a year. The office tells me they do not accept EAP and that I’m overdue on my bill. I have never been told, in all the times I physically check in for my appointments (I never do virtual) that I owed anything. This is the first I’m hearing about it, or that they do not accept EAP because I confirmed when I made the very first appointment that they did accept them. Hell, I had called to give codes for each batch of six sessions. Now, if they had told me this sooner, I would’ve stopped going to find someone else. Not a big deal, it’s their business and they are allowed to handle it however they want. But it feels really shady to suddenly spring a mystery bill on me and say I’m overdue for the last six sessions. They had six months to tell me when I came in or email me or call me. I showed them all the proof of me contacting them (I always leave paper trails) about the EAP codes and confirmations it was accepted. The legal advice I’m seeking is, is it legal for a provider to do that, suddenly stop taking EAP and secretly bill you without informing the patient? I’m assuming they will drop my bill once they review my evidence, but if not, can I legally ignore that bill (if it even comes my way at all)?

Hey all I have to choose between some state medi-cal options for health insurance. The choices are community health, Molina healthcare and Blue shield healthcare. I've already dealt with Molina and I don't like them for my needs. So it's: Community Health vs. Blue shield. Context: My mother and I ( 55 F & 26 F) both suffer from certain health issues and will need specialists treatment, physical therapy and possibly even cardiology treatments (fingers crossed none of it is harmful). Some of these may even be genetic or hereditary, so appropriate testing and treatment are very important. We have either been diagnosed or have a probable diagnosis of some of these below 👇 Examples: •reynard's syndrome (a type of nerve condition) • Rheumatoid Arthritis • Wiggly Joints (causes wear of the joints and hyper mobility) Just to name a few. What I'm looking for is are there any miracle stories? Horror stories? Good experiences or bad? Which choice sounds the best for our needs of anyone can relate to us or has any experience looking for these things. TIA so much. P.S. I am still figuring out reddit so I may not be able to edit the post BUT I will reply in comments! Thank you!

2024 I met my deductible for the first time so I decided to see a sleep doctor. Found the doctor through my insurance portal as in network. Went to my visit, no payment as my insurance is accepted. A few months later I was billed as out of network. I call the doctors billing office and they assure me they are in network, they will resubmit to insurance. I get another bill, doctors billing department reassures me that they are in network, resubmits. Now in 2025 insurance and doctors office confirm that the doctor only became in network for my particular plan 10/1/2024 and my two appointments were in September 2024. Very suspicious. Is there anything I can do to get out of paying? Everybody was on the same page so I am not sure what happened? I suspect the doctor forgot to renew with my plan and so it went into effect the following month of my visit?

Alright here's whats going on Been licensed since 2021 Got into first accident (at fault) in november of 2022 Got into accident last month (feburary 2025) Before the 2025 accident I was with Wawanesa and was paying I believe $350 a month for insurance but they just dropped me. Things are generally close by so I was planning on just lasting out on a Non-owner's policy until insurance becomes affordable (I'm guessing nov/dec since the 2022 accident will be 3 years old then) but I'm curious if anyone has any other suggestions. I looked in to pay-per-mile insurance but it doesn't seem like there is anyone offering it here in California. Any help is appreciated.
