It's a 2022 Genesis g70 RWD fully loaded prestige package and they offered me 31500. Kelly Blue book gives 31500-36000. Is it worth hiring an appraiser to raise the price? The adjuster doesn't seem to want to budge.

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?

Hi there. Last year in April 2024 I bought small business insurance through Chubb because a client job required it. I paid the annual amount in full at the start. When the year was up in 2025, I didn't renew. They sent multiple bills and I didn't respond because my client was vacillating about continuing the project and I didn't want to spend the money if I didn't need to. Then they sent a notice saying that the policy was canceled, which I expected given I had not paid. But they kept sending bills and emails and it was annoying so eventually I replied that I was not intending to renew, I understood the policy had expired, and if I decided to re-insure, I would be in touch. All of a sudden they came back with a new amount for "earned premium" from the time the policy was canceled for non payment until the time I told them I wasn't planning to renew. Is this standard and normal? To be clear, I paid the full annual amount up front, and just didn't renew the policy by paying for a second year. Their explanation: We apologize for any confusion. There appears to have been a ceding issue on the non-payment cancellation. Therefore, the cancellation effective date is 6/4/2025. The earned premium is the premium amount from the coverage effect date of 4/2/2025 to the cancellation date since the policy cancelled due to non-payment. Can someone advise if this is normal? It's not a huge amount and I can suck it up, but it feels crooked to me because I presume if I had tried to make a claim after the first year was up without having paid, they would not have covered me.

We have been on medi-cal since 2020. Husband and I both lost our job. When we started working, we reported our income. We had a child and our income still within theamount that qualifies. 2022, I reported my income. And they still renew. 2023, I did not work, we qualified. 2024, I got a new job July, I called and they said my medi-cal will be cancelled by August. I enrolled in my job's medical insurance. Fast forward 2025, got a letter we qualified. I kept in my record that I always submit proof of income. What should I do?

A few weeks ago, I was in a car accident while driving my parents' car that I wasn’t in fault. When I called my parents insurance company they told me i wasn’t covered by their insurance policy and didn't say anything and said to call the other party to solve this they didn't informed me on any of the steps so I assumed that I have to only call the other persons insurance. I wasn’t covered under my parents insurance, as they excluded me from due to not having 3 years o experience and I had no idea how much this would impact me. This was totally my fault for not being informed. My parents don’t speak good English and the language barrier wasn’t clear whether they added me or removed me from their policy. I'm a full time student taking 30 units this spring and currently I live with my boyfriend near my campus and visit my parents about once a month. That day, I just wanted to go to the gym and didn't think much about it so I drove myself since my parents were busy. I never thought that one small decision could turn into something so overwhelming. I’ve only been driving for a year, and this is the first time anything like this has ever happened to me. I didn’t even know that I was supposed to notify the DMV if the accident caused more than $1,000 in damage. I’ve tried everything I called my parents’ insurance company, I called the DMV to request a hearing but they told me there’s nothing I can do because I wasn’t covered. Now, I’m facing the possibility of having my license suspended, and I feel completely lost. Is there *any* way to stop this from happening? I don’t want one mistake to take away my ability to drive. If anyone has advice or knows what I can do, I’d truly appreciate it.

Has anyone used Clements Insurance? I'll be in Bangkok for 6 months to a year and I'm looking for full coverage on expensive personal property. They say they provide that coverage, but saying and doing....

Car Came In Contact With Pedestrian Hello All, I would just like some community input. My mother a few days ago was driving her car in Queens, NYC, she was going about 18mph, when a pedestrian backed into traffic and came in contact with her car and was taken away by Ambulance, No damage to my mother's car and she was not injured. NYPD came and took a report and my mother's insurance. Other party literally hired an "Ambulance chaser" the next day. In the NYPD report they state what the pedestrian said, "pedestrian pulled over her car at body shop to be looked at, she stated she opened the hood and a splash of water spewed out and startled her and she jumped backwards" (NYPD did not witness the accident and I am aware the police report does not determine fault in accidents just criminal liability, but the report is used as a tool). My mother didn't have a dash cam (lesson learned), my mother also says that someone saw a security camera footage of thr incident. I just wanna know how screwed is my family since my mom has her car and house to worry about and now this? *Note* My mother works for the USPS and was on the clock at the time, she just drives her car to a central location on her route and then walsk her route. I already knew State Farm would deny the claim cause my mother was on the clock. They advised the other party to file a tort claim with the USPS. *Note, the USPS is not as transparent with its employees or customers. So I have very little faith in how this process will be handled since my mother was working at the time. Thank you all for your input.

I don't know much about auto insurance claims, but I do know they have to and in no uncertain terms tell me they are denying my claim and why in an official and written communication. I need someone to give me advice what to do next. I have a strongly worded demand letter giving the 1 week to get me my total loss documents and an offer for ACV....I'm probably screwed. 17 days after the accident the at-fault driver's insurance told me they were taking responsibility and needed me to contact the impound lot and approve them to pick it up. They then told me I would be getting a rental car, comparable to my vehicle ( a 7 seater XL SUV and it would be authorized for a minimum of 5 days, to be extended as needed. Then they asked for my statement--- They accepted fault before they even heard my side, and my side further points the finger at their guy. July 1st They took it to their body shop and I picked up my rental and I didn't hear anything for a couple days so July 3rd I called the shop up and the owner said they told the person who dropped it off that it was totaled without needing to be evaluated and to take it away (they left it anyway) She said left a voicemail with the adjuster that day but hadn't heard back from her yet. I call and leave a voicemail with the adjuster and since it was the day before 4th of July I wasn't really expecting to hear back from her until Monday at the earliest. I didn't hear anything until 7/9-Wednesday. It was an my email to check the claims portal for new documents. It was a document for a repair cost estimate. $24,000 and my car is worth $21,000 on a really good day. The repairs are things like welding to repair frame, taking various pa from a 2024 model (my car is 2018), not even a compatible year. Voicemail notification pops up from the adjuster. Hey, just wanted to touch base. Our liability department reviewed the claim and determined they were no longer taking responsibility for it. Please let me know where you would like to have my vehicle taken. If I want to send her a text with my address she can even be so nice to leave it in my driveway. She calls again on the 11th leaving another voicemail. I say call, but my phone isn't ring there's no missed call in my log--- This voicemail she is super chipper, telling me the good news that my vehicle can be fixed, says to check my email to see the estimate for repair, tells me I just need to take that to my insurance and they will get the repairs done since they are no longer accepting responsibility. "Your insurance has probably already been communicating with you and asking you for it. No man, they denied my claim 3 weeks ago boi. My insurance has been terrible through this too, can't get them to call me back so at this point I take it upon myself to order my own copy of the police report because there has got to be a reason they're suddenly flipping the script on me..... I get a copy of the accident report 7/15 and oooh boy, that has to be the DUMBEST cop on the planet. Here's his report Driver 1 was traveling down lane 2 , veered into the guard wires on the left. Driver 1 then took a sharp right being perpendicular in lane 1 when driver 2 collided.---- Like it all happened at the same time. OH! And he apparently cited me for improper lane usage which has to do with unsafe lane changes and swerving outside the lines. The diagram he drew is equally ridiculous. Nothin he had in the report was anything I had said. Here is the gist of what actually happened that day: Traveling in the left lane on the highway at 320am my tire came off ....and I'm not talking just my tire, the entire hub. At the time I had no clue what happened and am only guessing, honestly at what happened next -my car sank down slightly on the driver side and suddenly I couldn't steer,, my vehicle is not responding even if I held the steering while steady or if I decided to jerk it hard to the right. When gently touching the brake the car wanted to make a hard right so while It had a mind of its own, all I could do was down shift and pray THANK GOD I was able to reduce speed to 40mph and that the road was empty because my vehicle decided to suddenly make a harsh veer right which caused my car to do a fancy spin across the highway to the right lane and came to a stop facing oncoming traffic. My vehicle was semi parallel to the highway and mostly on the shoulder, but partially in the right lane as well. Facing oncoming traffic but the front of the car more on the shoulder and the back more in the right lane. My vehicle automatically starts flashing every light ever and blaring out the alarm sound, and saying "we are contacting emergency services" or whatever it said. Sweet saves me something to do since my car refuses to budge. I should mentioned that it was twilight out and I was grateful that my vehicle was facing head on because my headlights and fog lights are hard to miss, impressive and now they are blinking.. I contact AAA and put out these orange plastic cones that I had in the back from soccer practice...better than nothing. I can see that my tire is there but it looks crooked. I get back in the vehicle because I assume I would survive an impact surrounded by steel better than if I wasn't. I'm watching cars approach, slow down and change lanes for about 20 minutes while AAA takes their sweet time. 345ish is when I see this minivan in the right lane coming quick and not slowing down at all, other cars are getting over ya know?.... the next part happens in a blur no idea what occurred, I think my brain took over and put my conscious to sleep for a second he smashes into my beast of an SUV going at least 80mph-never touching his brakes, no tire marks on the ground But I am standing on the side of the road so I must've escaped just in time. and on the shoulder is my driver side tire disconnected like a loose tooth. My vehicle gets thrown 100 yards down the highway, he continues another 100-150 yards down the road and up an embankment about 20 feet. I think he's dead, i run down to check on him, by the time I get there he is standing outside his vehicle and on the phone with 911. He was real cool, grateful I was alive he tells me that he was sorry. He had his cruise control on and his cat was in the back seat. His cat started meowing so he was turned around checking on it and before he could turn back around he smashed into my SUV He had to have been not looking at the road a solid 60-90 seconds--- visibility was far even at twilight. ANYWAY, I write the insurance carrier and go over my review of the accident report and pointing out inaccuracies such as where my vehicle ended up would have been impossible had it been a t-bone collision and the fact that his vehicle traveled 200 yards after impact supports my side of the story that his passenger side collided with my passenger side, in a semi head on way....hard to describe how my vehicle sat, it was parallel but not perfectly so, the back of my car was slightly in the right lane and the front of my vehicle was slightly more on the shoulder. Also mentioned that I had order a copy of the 911 call where he admitted to me he wasn't looking at the road....before I could hit send, I get an email saying to check the claim portal, they have a copy of the police report and a letter attached saying that they were sharing the police report with me and that the police report does not state their client is at fault. ALSO DOESNT SAY IM AT FAULT BUT WHATEVER!! Enterprise calls me they want to report the vehicle stolen, they give me 24 hour grace aka today in 3 hours. I send a strongly worded demand letter pointing out that they have not denied nor finished my claim, and they were the ones who approved a rental car to see me through the length of this claim so they are obligated to continue paying for my car rental and if they fail to do so then I will have no choice but to submit a complaint for bad faith practices. Gave them 24 hours to respond. I don't understand what is going on, why change their minds like this but not outright deny the claim and end it here--this game playing I don't have time for it but I am a petty person I will not roll over. I'm frustrated. No attorney wants to take this case because I'm not injured, wishing now I had stayed in my vehicle so at least the insurance couldn't mess with me. I'm too broke to pay for an attorney, but I can't afford to lose a $20,000 asset because they are a bully.

Was just on hold for 4 and a half hours trying to get a quote on my car.. they don’t do quotes in office anymore either…

Edit: Total amount that was for the insurance that month was like $400 something. I think around $430. Not sure if that has something to do with it Hey so I had gotten my car back a couple of months ago. To put it short, for some dumbass reason my ass didn't think I would need insurance to take the car off the lot and didn't factor that into it, as the last time I gotten a car I went to a shady shitty dealership which let me drive off with just liability. So I had set myself up with Bristol West. Thing is I did not have the money for the insurance but it went through because I did an option that would collect over a few days. It showed as active for me to collect my car. Anyways immediately like a day or two later, I decide to go with Progressive which was much cheaper and canceled my plan with Bristol by calling them. (I used Bristol to pick up my car but then changed it to Progressive and they took that) After it got canceled I got some mail saying that I owe $110. Now question. I do know that say if you cancel mid-cycle or early they give like a "refund" or don't make you pay the whole amount. My question is, does $110 seem right for literally using them for about a day or so. Keep in mind they couldn't even charge me but it showed my acc as active. Active enough to try and get my car. Does anyone have any experience with this? How do they decide how much to charge you when you cancel, Does it matter when you cancel or they just give you a rate which you have to pay. I just realized that they sent it to debt collections and want it.
