I feel like this rate is insane for me being by myself 21 year old male in a brand new $50k plus Cadillac, I do need the snapshot through progressive (absolutely hate that) but I have been told my policy is half what it should be anywhere else. Clean record but why is my policy so low? I have average deductibles and had a third party review my account and said the coverage is right where it should be.

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.

So am I overpaying? Any recommendations on where to go? Nationwide increased my bill by a lot. Healthy dog.

I got a new puppy (7 weeks old). Got embrace pet insurance that same day. Took her in for her first vet appointment as a good pet owner should about a week later. Obviously this was still during the illness waiting period. But it appeared I had a nice healthy puppy. Turns out she has a heart murmur. First vet graded it as a grade 4 and told me to see a cardiologist. I went and got a second opinion and they graded it as a grade 3 and we are going to watch it and see if it goes away in the next couple months. Anyway, embrace pulled the SOAP notes from the 2 vets and are saying it's not covered as it's a preexisting condition. I plan on appealing it, even going to the California insurance board or whatever it's called if I have to because it seems like that is such BS. I'm being punished for taking my pup to the vet too soon. My question is, what is the best way to word the appeal to the embrace adjuster? It's not right that an 8 week old puppy getting it's very first exam should get that classified as a preexisting condition.

Hi everyone, I'm on the phone with the claims department at MetLife. After having paid faithfully for my dog's insurance since the night I adopted him for two years, when I finally filed my claims, I've received SIXTEEN CENTS. Two years worth of payments for SIXTEEN CENTS. They are denying part of my claim because they said I need to provide the previous 12 months of medical records of my dog's history before November 2022. The problem? I ADOPTED HIM IN NOVEMBER 2022. I could see if they were confused about that, but they were on the phone with me during the adoption process! I have a second dog, and I have a different insurance through them, and I planned on going with them, but MetLife gave me a good rate, and the rescue was so encouraging that I went with them, against my better judgment. Now I know why- they suck. I am looking for other people who've been asked for the same asinine requirements of producing their adopted dog's previous 12 months of SOAP notes BEFORE you adopted them and were denied for a claim. I'm looking to either send this to my state's AG or see if there's an attorney out there willing to take on a class action. Clearly, MetLife Pet insurance is a scam agency. I've asked them yet again to reimburse me, and I told them this time, if they say no, then I want all my payments returned. It's an easy decision- pay less for my claim, or pay more and give me back all my money. I also told them if they do, I'm willing to return the 16 cent paper check I made them mail me. Thanks.

I have had Trupanion insurance for my 6yo cat Eloise since I got her as a kitten. The premiums have increased each year, which is to be expected, but I just got the new 2025 policy and it increased from $28.95 to $42.31. What?! Eloise is healthy other than gingivitis. She had to have a dental cleaning this year and Trupanion actually covered part of it, even though the way the policy is written made it seem like they wouldn't. I submitted it anyway and most if it was accepted. I only got a little back after deductible but considered that a win. Hopefully she won't need another cleaning for a few years. I'm not paying $42 a month so my question is, is insurance really needed for a health cat? And if so, any recommendations? I didn't have insurance for my two prior cats (it wasn't so much a thing when I got them way back). One of them was mostly healthy for 15 years then the last 6 months of his life it was one expensive crisis after another. After he died and I got Eloise, her vet strongly encouraged insurance. I did the math and what I would have paid in 15 years of premiums was almost exactly what I paid in 6 months of those medical problems. It would have been nice to get a % back after deductible during such a stressful time. So that is what swayed me to get insurance for Eloise. $20 then $25 then $28 seemed reasonable. But $42 does not. [Especially when Trupanion CEO has a compensation package of almost a million dollars.](https://simplywall.st/stocks/us/insurance/nasdaq-trup/trupanion/management#:~:text=Trupanion's%20CEO%20is%20Margi%20Tooth,company's%20shares%2C%20worth%20%245.14M) Her current policy: Max lifetime benefits: no limits Deductible per illness/injury: $500 Co-insurance: 90%/10% Waiting period accident: 5 days Waiting period illness: 30 days Thanks for any insight!

Just switched from Embrace Pawprotect to Trupanion... Can't seem to find an app for it in the google play store. What kind of insurance company doesn't have a mobile app in the year 2025? 😭

Like home and car insurance in California, looks like Umbrella premiums have gone through roof. Is that true for others in Cali? I'm with State Farm. $2M umbrella was a few hundred dollars last year; renewing now at $2400/year (no claims, no accidents, no lawsuits). 3 cars; 3 drivers. Own home. No pets, not much liability. Anyone else got this sort of increase year over year?

I have 3 vehicles under my name, we were in the middle of moving between cities and I decided to change the location. Due to last minute changes, we decided to stay at our current location. I went to log back into geico to change it back and it says they locked my account and when I called them they said “they are investigating the location of the vehicles”. What are my options now and what should I do?

I am currently 2 months pregnant and just recently went for my 2nd pre-natal routine checkup. They performed a papsmear, and a ton of blood testing since I am almost 40yrs and it may be in the high risk category for pregnancy. Before I went in to see the doctor. The people at the front desk assured me that my Ambetter plan covers everything that needed to be done. But today, I received a letter in the mail from ambetter saying that I was denied for "Genetic Testing" as it falls out of their covered services. I am really stressed out about this and don't know what I should do. The people at the doctor's office told me they cover it, and ambetter is telling me otherwise. I also signed up for CHIP perinatal and wonder if that covers Genetic Testing.
