(TL;DR at the bottom) In mid-December 2024, my parked car was involved in a hit-and-run while I was at home. Surveillance footage revealed a white Mercedes struck my vehicle and fled. Unable to identify the driver immediately, I reported the incident to the police and my insurance company. By early January, my car was declared totaled. As a tobacco inspector, my job required a personal vehicle for site visits. Without transportation, I was removed from the schedule and subsequently terminated. Despite actively seeking employment since January, I’ve been unable to secure a new position.  In March, I noticed the same white Mercedes parked nearby. After running the VIN, my insurance confirmed it belonged to a neighbor. She had concealed her vehicle for over two months following the incident. Upon presenting this evidence, her insurance company accepted liability, acknowledging her prior claim in December for hitting a parked car. However, her policy only covers the Pennsylvania state minimum of $5,000 for property damage, which was paid to my insurer. After settling my car loan, I received $3,000 from my insurance, insufficient to replace the vehicle. Without steady income, securing auto financing has been challenging. I purchased my 2018 Mazda6 Grand Touring Reserve in April 2023. The total finance amount was $21,116 , I put down $4,500 and made regular monthly payments until the car was totaled in December 2024. At the time of the accident, it was valued at $16,500. After the remaining loan balance and deductible were paid, I received only about $3,300 ,far below what I had put into the car and not enough to replace it To date, my neighbor has not acknowledged the incident or attempted to discuss it with me. Without a vehicle, my ability to work has been severely impacted, and relying on public transportation and rideshares has become financially burdensome during unemployment. I’ve now missed approximately 12 weeks of full-time wages as a direct result. I reside in Philadelphia, PA. ___________ My questions: • Given the circumstances, what additional insurance coverages could have better protected me in this situation? • Are there specific endorsements or policy options that can safeguard against underinsured drivers causing significant losses? • What steps should I take when the at-fault party’s insurance coverage is insufficient to cover damages? Any guidance or insights from those familiar with insurance claims and coverage options would be greatly appreciated. __________ TL;DR: Neighbor’s hit-and-run totaled my car, leading to job loss. Her insurance covered only $5,000, leaving me unable to replace the vehicle or secure new employment. Seeking advice on insurance coverages that could have mitigated this loss and steps to take when the at-fault party’s coverage is inadequate.

26, tried to get heath care for the first time in January. I thought I was going through healthcare.gov. Guess I called a wack number. “Premier Health Solutions/Health care member services.” Told me 383$ for first 2 months as lump payments then $10 rest of the year. That was a straight up lie. It’s 383$ every month and I will be broke if I keep getting charged. I went through the chat feature to begin cancelation and got an email saying the process has started and I’ll get confirmation but I haven’t yet. I called again about it and they said I’ll get a call from an agent to confirm cancellation. I can’t afford to make another payment and I’m terrified.

So my employer recently enrolled us in the Unum dental PPO plan. I've been calling offices near me and no one seems to know what insurance plan this is. Unum confirmed with me over the phone these offices are in network and every single one of them are saying they don't accept the insurance because they haven't heard of it. My insurance card also doesn't mention DenteMax or Connection Dental, so it's through Unum itself.

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.

My car is being considered Totaled based on the accident photos. To determine the value of the car the adjuster is asking me to take pictures of the inside of the car only. I requested for them to send someone over to look at the car in person, and they say they don't send appraisers to look at cars, that they only base it on the pictures. They said that if I wanted to get the car repaired that I can, but they would consider it as "Salvaged" and there's a process for that. They would send me a salvaged title, etc. Wouldn't they assess it lower based on inside images only? What about the rest of the car, they don't care about it? What can I do about this. I have also let them know I paid for my registration, bought some new lights, tires, etc. recently, and they asked for the receipt of these items, which I will send but how can I know that I'm not being offered really low? What makes me the most concerned is that I had a body shop come see the car and they tell me that they consider the car's value much higher than the repair. This is why I wish they could bring someone over instead. The car aside the accident part, is in great shape, why can't they be fair and bring someone to do this properly? This is being done by the other driver's insurance.
