Has anyone successfully moved their IRA from Inspira to Vanguard with an "in kind" transfer? It's impossible to reach anyone via phone at Inspira for help!

I’m in New York State, I had GEICO and I made a payment on the due date(yesterday) but noticed they didn’t want the full payment amount that I normally pay but a smaller payment(I assumed for a new car that I added on). Long story short, I gave them a call and they cancelled my policy because they said they sent a letter regarding a rate change, which I haven’t received. I live in a rural area and we have to physically pick up the mail from the post office, it looks like the mail was returned to the GEICO. They put in request to underwriting to see if they’ll reinstate the policy. What are the chances they do? Do they normally reinstate policies? Policy lapsed for only 1 day.

Location: UK I had an accident in December of 2023, which was third parties fault totally. Unfortunately they decided to completely ignore all correspondence from my insurance company and their own for as long as they could with deadlines, and drag this whole process right out, then at the last minute dispute it. This went on and on back and forth until November 2024 (almost a year after the accident and after the threat of court proceedings) when they decided to admit fault at last, and agree to pay. The solicitors that took over the claim for us emailed to let us know, there will be no court and our excess will be returned to us shortly, great! Except it’s April 2025, and we’ve still received nothing, the last email reply from solicitor I received was in January, telling me the third parties solicitor had assured them they had requested payment from third party. Since then radio silence from solicitors and no reply. I know it’s only £400 excess but it’s a matter of principle to us and with the current cost of living we definitely need this money back! Does anybody have any legal advice or insurance advice? As I thought admiral (third party insurer) would have to refund us our excess within a certain timeframe surely..? 18 months is mad! Thank you everybody in advance for your help, you’re all amazing!!

I have been a State Farm customer for almost 40 years. I recently was in my first serious automobile accident where the repair costs are around $25,000. State Farm has been hellish to work with and dragged even just the start of repairs out two months. It’s not over yet, but it’s pretty clear I’m gonna end up having to pay a pretty good chunk of that out-of-pocket. The body shop tells me that most namebrand insurance companies are difficult to work with. He suggested one of the high-end brands like Chubb or Pure. The more I think about it it seems like I could go with a low rate company and for that once every 25 year incident just pay for the repairs myself. As long as I have injuries and liability covered, it feels like I would come out even. My question is this. Should I go with a different company that is more white glove service like Chubb? Or should I find some cut rate company where I at least know up front I’m going to have to pay out-of-pocket for an repairs like this but save money and headache in the long run? Or should I just stay in the middle with SF? FYI, I do have good umbrella coverage too.

Had collision (not gap) . Lots of body damage, but totally drivable. Quoted at $1500 in repairs (after deductible), The car is an EV and I’ve wanted to trade it for a gas car, but I owe way way more than it’s worth so haven’t. The claims adjuster told me repeatedly on the phone they’d negotiate with the lienholder if I had their tow truck come and pick it up and progressive could total it so obviously I happily agreed. Claims adjuster gets back to me, says they’ll send my leinholder 3k after my deductible (this is a fair value of the car) and I’ll still be responsible for the remainder of the balance. The remaining balance is 9K. (I know, I know..) I asked what happened to negotiating, he just gaslighted me that that’s not his job and he said he’d *maybe* negotiate. So I ask for my car back, he said, no I can’t have my car back. How is that possible? I haven’t signed anything yet, but I don’t get why they pressured me to agree to paying out my lienholder 3k vs 1500 payout to me (after deductible) I’ll be left with no car and 9K in debt? How can that be legal? Help? Edit : by asking for my car back I meant , can I have my car back and then they send me the original check for the body damage repairs

I am scheduled for surgery next week with a specialist. I’ve waited a very long time to get this care and am chronically ill from my health problems. I received notice from the hospital billing department today that in fact the hospital is out-of-network with my insurance. This is after at least 6 months of appointments at this hospital and with this surgeon’s office. My insurance was billed for the other pre-op appointments. The billing office informed me today that I would have to pay about 49k up front to even be seen by the doctor for the surgery at this point. I pressed both my insurance and the hospital as to how this could happen. According to the hospital billing office, they had my insurance numbers but not my card on file (I’m quite sure I gave them my physical cards at one of my in-person appointments). They said someone had entered the wrong plan into the system (one that was covered by the hospital) and just discovered this. Something feels very wrong to me, not to mention the psychological stress of having been preparing for a hopefully life-changing surgery that is likely to be off the table. I have the option to file an out-of-network gap exception or use another recommended surgeon, but I am enraged that this mistake was made. I don’t understand how the hospital could just now find out that my insurance is out-of-network. Can anyone advise—is this fishy? What might I do to get my surgery next week? My FMLA is approved, my friend paid money to fly to stay with and take care of me, and childcare and meals are organized. I find the whole thing unacceptable but don’t know how to advocate for myself. My plan is Highmark Blue Cross Community PPO.

I'm looking to insure a 2018 Chevy Cruze, full coverage. Was quoted $389 by progressive, and that's more than I can afford monthly. Looking for recommendations on insurance companies that might have cheaper/mor affordable rates

Hi all — I’m following up on a post I made over a year ago regarding a dispute with my former neighbor in an HOA community: [Original Post](https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladvice/comments/17kskaq/neighbor_wants_us_to_remove_trees_trench_and/) At the time, the neighbor was demanding that I remove trees and trench my property due to alleged view obstruction and root intrusion. I consulted with an attorney back then who told me to wait and see if the neighbor actually filed a lawsuit, as the demands seemed like a scare tactic. Their advice was to assume he might just be bluffing unless I was formally served. **Fast forward:** I sold the property and moved out of the HOA community. A few weeks **after the sale was finalized**, I was served with a lawsuit from the same neighbor. The lawsuit includes eight causes of action, mostly related to HOA CC&R violations, nuisance, and alleged property damage from tree roots. **The plaintiff is still a member of the HOA. I am not.** I no longer owned the property and was not a member of the HOA when the lawsuit was filed. **My homeowner’s insurance is providing a defense attorney that will be defending me wholly but will only financially cover the property damage claims.** They will not cover any claims related to HOA CC&R violations, "loss of enjoyment," nuisance, or attorneys’ fees. The claims adjuster also told me that I could be responsible for the plaintiff’s full attorneys’ fees if he prevails on **any portion** of the case, even a minor claim. They are pointing to this clause in the HOA CC&Rs: *(i) Attorneys Fees.* *Any judgment rendered in any action or proceeding pursuant to this Declaration shall include a sum for attorneys’ fees in such amount as the court or arbitrator, as applicable, may deem reasonable, in favor of the prevailing party...* # 🔹 What I’m really trying to understand: Does the HOA’s CC&Rs and this attorneys’ fee provision still apply to me, even though: * I was **not a member of the HOA** at the time the lawsuit was filed. * I had already **sold the home** and was no longer bound by the CC&Rs. * **The HOA did not have any open or pending violations against me at the time of the sale.** * The claims are mostly based on alleged violations while I lived there. Is it common or even legally valid for CC&R provisions to be enforced against a **former homeowner**, when the lawsuit was filed after the sale? **Has anyone dealt with a similar situation?** Any legal insight, personal experience, or thoughts would be really appreciated. I’m trying to gauge how much personal exposure I truly have beyond what my insurance is covering. *(I understand this is not formal legal advice, just looking for shared experiences and general guidance.)* Location: California

Location: Maryland (currently living in Georgia now) So I got into a car wreck back in December. My car received 7 grand in damages but managed to make it out. I ended up going to the hospital because of the wreck and the at fault driver hit another vehicle as well totaling both of their cars. Now some months later my insurance company, who is handle my legal matters (it’s USAA if it matters), has informed me that the at fault party has been sent to collections. And I was told if they don’t respond their license will be indefinitely suspended. But nothing else really? I have lost a lot from this accident keeping me out of work and a vehicle for quite a while. And the value of my perfect condition vehicle has made it work about a couple of grand when its initial selling value was over 12 grand. I am a safe driver and I feel like I’m being punished for an irresponsible driver and my insurance isn’t really doing much to remedy the situation cause at this point it really has been money out of my pocket. Also the at fault driver was uninsured as well. I don’t know what to do and it’s been making me really kind of sad about it.

I'm trying to figure out how much to ask for my loss of use claim. It took their Insurance 6 months to pay anything for my vehicle as they were still investigating aspects of the accident. I did end up purchasing a car out of my own money separately part way through but nothing that they helped with and I still had the totaled car sitting outside the whole time. I've tried to research what it should be but everything I read seems to assume that insurance pays out quickly. Geico is trying to say the industry standard is 14 days at $30 dollars a day. I did a free consult with a car accident attorney back at the beginning of it and he said to expect $32 per day for my car, but I just need to figure out how many days. If they should be on the hook for all 6 months they chose to wait to pay me.
