In New Jersey here. I’ve just been having awful luck with my car the last few years and I’m trying to figure out how to proceed. My driving history abstract pulled 1/2025: December 2021 - ticket obstructing passage of other vehicle March 2022 - fender bender - at fault but not shown on my abstract. insurance paid October 2022- My leased 2019 Jeep Cherokee was totaled in a hit and run accident. Not at fault. Insurance paid May 2023 - a Tesla and My new Kia sportage (financed in 1/2023) collide while both Backing out of opposite parking spaces. not shown on my abstract. Insurance paid November 2023 - got out of my Kia sportage, wasn’t in park and rolled away from me and hit a garage wall. Insurance paid. progressive sends nonrenewal notice. January 2024 I can’t find any insurance coverage for less than $1000 a month. So I give up, unregister it, leave it uninsured just and put the car in the garage. It’s been 15 months without a car. I still can’t afford to insure it. My sister and I decided we would trade cars. I would take her 2015 Chrysler 200 since it’s paid off and see if I can get cheaper insurance. Then she could register and insure my sportage under her name and use it for herself. we’d prefer not to refinance it in her name because we’re going to split the finance payment. My portion would be like paying her for the Chrysler. So that’s our plan but She has NJM and they’re saying they can’t insure the sportage if she’s not on the loan. Is this possible? Also any insights the situation as a whole and what to do to proceed? I really need to get back on the road. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi I got nexplanon and was billed by planned parenthood for $400, my insurance Community Health Plan of Washington states it covers birth control, but I’m getting charged $400 for the insertion? Is this correct or should I be completely covered by my insurance?

I have auto through the lizard. Long story, so I apologize in advance. In May, I bought a new car, and wanted to add my husband and the new car so we would all be on one policy. I didn’t know that I wasn’t supposed to cancel my policy and make a new one, but that’s what ended up happening. I called them and asked if they could reinstate my old policy and add the 2. A supervisor got the approval to do it and transferred me to a lady in a department I’m not sure of. That lady told me I should keep the new policy because it is cheaper. I asked if both policies were exactly the same. She went line by line and confirmed they both had the same coverage. I asked why the new policy was cheaper if they were exactly the same. She told a story about how each policy is owned by different companies and they set their own rules of how they want to handle it. I said, well if you’re saying they’re exactly the same, I guess I’ll keep the new one then but only because you confirmed they were the same coverage. She was typing the whole time and said she was writing the notes in an email. Fast forward to July, the first car (not the new one) got struck by lightning and I tried to file a claim. They told me I didn’t have comprehensive or collision and refused to help. I tried having supervisors try to locate the recording of the phone call with that lady, or find an email or transcript that showed the full conversation. They are saying it doesn’t exist, and there is no recording of it at all. If they could find it, they could retroactively fix the comprehensive and I could continue with the claim. Supervisors also have said that manager level and above calls don’t get recorded. Is there anything I can do at this point? I know they record everything, but they are saying it doesn’t exist. I don’t know what else I can do.

My puppy recently got a tick bite and showed positive on Lyme disease after testing. Did more testing to see if treatment is required. Pet insurance denied my claim because I didn’t buy him the vaccine for Lyme disease offered by Vet. I have bought both internal and external de-wormer through Vet and PetSmart with records. I am trying to appeal this but want to know if I am supposed to buy that vaccine at the first place? Am I supposed to buy anything Vet offered to make further claims approved?

I was hit by a Lyft driver back on 11/17/2024. They didn’t check their blind spot and merged into me on the freeway. My car’s front bumper is cracked and messed up, I had to change that tire, and my windshield wiper fluid tank is cracked. I don’t have proof of the accident but I filed a police report as soon as the incident happened and I recorded the situation right after. I think it’s very obvious (from the damages and location of the accident) that her car hit my car. This problem became complicated because they were using a Hertz rental vehicle, not their own car. The driver gave me their insurance information and she claimed that she bought “extra insurance” to cover incidents. I come to find out, her Hertz insurance doesn’t cover the incident because she was driving for Lyft? And Lyft is now saying, “If we agree to pay for some or all of your property damage on behalf of our policyholder, we will only consider reasonable rental expenses, for a vehicle comparable to the damaged vehicle, and/or reasonable storage expenses for reimbursement.” Does this mean they will not be paying for any of my actual damages?? I unfortunately do not have collision coverage, I only have California state minimum requirement. I’m looking to switch but full coverage was just way out of my budget at the moment ($400+ per month). Please help :( I don’t really know what to do next. I’d appreciate any advice!!

I’m not having a good experience with Pet’s Best. Started my policy in November for a 3yr old rescue. It has been about 4 weeks since I submitted my last claim. Emails came saying they’ve reached out to (wrong vet) for medical records. I call my vet and they get emailed to PB within minutes. Today I get another email asking for my help. I forward the same email from my vet to them. Then sign in to see they have all the medical records and have labeled them “valid”. It’s almost like they’re holding off until I get charged for another month. Meanwhile, they reimbursed for hookworm medication within a week of submitting the claim. That was my latest claim.

For those of you with Pets Best, how long does it usually take for them to finish reviewing a claim? I feel like they are taking forever lately.

I asked the Doc to send a simple urine sample to Quest. My insurance covers 100% labs with Quest. Today I see on my Florida Blue Cross account they sent it to a different lab and my portion is $3170. What to do?

Is it even legal for Healthy Paws pet insurance to increase premiums at almost 200% in CA? This is outrageously high!! Anyone experiencing the same? #healthypawspetinsurance

Repost 😆 I was rear ended at a light…luckily I was the only one in the car. The other driver accepted liability and I’m going through their insurance. I did get whiplash which I could feel a bit after the accident along with a bad headache. The pain is lingering a few weeks later now in my neck and shoulder. The injury claim adjuster offered $500 to sign an injury release. I want to avoid lawyers and running up medical bills etc for an injury that will likely heal over time. From industry experts or others with similar experience, what’s a fair settlement?
