Hello! I have Guardian Dental insurance. I just received a bill where I am responsible for $217 - Guardian only paid $47.00. Services billed were D0120 and D4910 (Periodic Eval and Periodontal Maintenance). I went on my Guardian account and it says that both codes are covered 100%. They are both under preventative and the coinsurance is listed as 100%. "Detailed and extensive oral evaluation (D0160) is not covered. **Oral evaluations, including codes** ***D0120***\*\*, D0145, D0150, D0170, D0180 or D9430, are covered once in any 6 consecutive month period.\*\* The limited oral evaluation - problem focused (D0140) is not included in the frequency limitation or last visit date." "Periodontal maintenance (D4910) is covered under the Basic service category. Adult prophylaxis (D1110) is covered age 12 and over. Prophylaxis (cleaning) (D1110, D1120) or **periodontal maintenance (D4910) is covered once in any 6 consecutive month period."** My date of service was 3/6/25. I have not had any other services in the last six months. My last visit was 9/3/2024. My deductible is $50, "Yes" means waived for preventative. To date, I met the $50 deductible and Remaining is "0". || || |Individual Dental|Out of network|$50.00|Yes|$50.00|0| ||In network|$50.00|Yes|$50.00|0| My deductible is $50 and it says I paid it... and my coinsurance is 100%? So even for preventative services, this means I'm responsible in paying all of my dental care beyond the first $50? My yearly plan limit is $1000. What is even the point of having health insurance? Is this because I got basic coverage instead of full coverage? I guess I'm ignorant and thought that preventive care would be covered. I feel really stupid right now! I tried calling, but they aren't open. Any assistance to help me understand is appreciated.

Hello, I bought a vehicle in New York.. had it shipped to California.. Vehicle arrived damaged during transport.. Transport Company stayed at a rest stop, another vehicle/truck backed up and hit Transport Trailer where my vehicle is secured.. Truck at fault denied my insurance claim.. Per the Insurance they don’t have coverage.. I filed a claim against the Transport Company who was transporting my vehicle, Progressive their insurance denied the claim with reason of Transport Company not cooperating with there investigation and unable to verify information that is necessary to confirm valid coverage for the incident.. What’s my next step? any advice? I’d like to avoid filing a claim against my insurance.. also, should I lawyer up? any suggestions? location is California.. Thanks

I got hit by a motor cycle and they were at fault. It destroy one of my wheels and tires. State Farm will replace the one tire. I want all 4 tires replaced bc it’s 4 wheel drive grand Cherokee and the owners manual states to keep all tires the same circumference. Basically don’t put one brand new tire with 3 used tires bc it can possibly damage the drive train. I’m pushing back bc I want them all done. What your take?

Hello, So Just to give some background my Experian score is 667 and I'm looking for a Heloc or Home Equity loan of about 35k. I make about 60k a year. In 2020 I had 2 late mortgage payments due to covid before I found out about the mortgage forbearance which I then signed up for, however the mortgage forbearance now shows up as ND on my credit report. I tried a local credit union who denied me based on the late payments. I am currently working with AmeriSave but they are saying that the ND on my credit report have to be explained. I contacted my current mortgage lender to request documents for that but I don't know how long that will take. Any advice on what else I can do in this situation?

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

I have recently had a 117% premium increase from Embrace. One of their justifications was the state I lived in, CA. I’m curious what other states have had such egregious increases ( regardless of company).

My mom’s home insurance policy looked high so I called the insurance company and asked them to walk me through it. Without changing any of the coverage/details, they determined it was thousands higher than it should be and couldn’t explain why. When I asked about a refund they said they could refund a few hundred dollars (she overpaid by thousands for this year). The policy renews in October so I’m assuming this is a prorated amount, is this expected? Again, the coverage details did not change and they can’t explain why it’s that high. At the very least, shouldn’t she be refunded by how much she overpaid for this year? I need to dig through my parents’ paperwork but it looks like this has been happening for years.

I rejoined British Columbia Automobile Association (BCAA) last year, after a short time away. I like the extra comfort in having them as a backup for my driving. But, when I renewed this year, they had to fix a double payment issue. I had not caught the double payment myself. I paid online with a credit card. They charged the credit card the next month, without me knowing about it. FYI. Still staying with them for back-up but will check payments closer in the future. I got a refund and 9 months extra. fyi.

I’m in shambles. A surgery out of network I was approved actually late last year is somehow now denied in network now? And the record of approval is nowhere to be found?? Literally saw it three weeks ago. I want to make sure this appeal hits the ball out of the park with all necessary info but it’s such an uphill mountain and I was so happy for a month and a half excitedly waiting for my surgery next month. Please help.
