Choice Home Warranty - Choice Home Warranty scam
Basically myself and many many others have been scammed by this company. They have you pay the fee for diagnostics and then say they won't cover the item needing replaced. They offered me $500 for my washing machine replacement when the part alone for my machine was $2000. Here is a link to all the issues https://www.reddit.com/r/choicehomeclassaction/s/lijqv0C3xu
Do we have a class action or should we all small claims court them? Who would I list (the ceo?) As the person on the complaint? They are already under investigation if you check the BBB website. Any advice or guidance would help.

Progressive Insurance - Progressive Insurance question
Hoping someone could possibly shed a little light on my situation. My daughter wrecked her car in front of our house on March 2nd. On March 5th Progressive sent the tow truck to retrieve the vehicle which they towed to an IAA auction yard to have it appraised. The appraiser went on the 7th. I spoke with someone from progressive on the 8th who needed to verify a few things. She said something about it being a total loss which at that time I didn’t know, which apparently she thought I had already been contacted. I told her I hadn’t so she said well I’ll just go over it real quick even though this isn’t my department. She said that it was a deemed a total loss and they valued my car at $8200 something (I don’t really remember the exact number) Little lower than I expected but okay. Anyway I logged into the app to check the status of the claim and I do see it’s a total loss but the only thing I see is the appraisers repair estimate for $8289 and the deduction for the deductible. Is that what they are actually valuing the car at? Or is that simply a repair estimate? We still owe on the car so I’m trying to plan accordingly. I’ve contacted our adjuster but have left messages with no return call as of yet.
Optum - Optum HSA Transfers: Check sent to wrong company
Like many people, I realized Optum HSA sucks and was trying to transfer over to Fidelity. I put in the request with Fidelity to initiate the transfer and saw that my funds were transferred out of my Optum account in early March via a check they send to Fidelity.
Fast forward to this week, I talked to Fidelity several times since they had yet to recieve anything and in their words the timeline was odd. I call Optum and they are adamant that Fidelity should have received something and asks to me to confirm with them again by asking them to search by the check number.
I trust Optum about as much as I trust the New York Rangers to win the Stanley Cup so I ask them to confirm where they sent the funds. They read off an address and company that I had NEVER heard of (it is a real HSA company though)... I then confirm they received the actual request from Fidelity and they dont need any additional information to execute the transfer since they ALREADY have the information they need...
I don't have a huge HSA account so it was less stressful for me but I couldn't help but think how someone would feel with a HSA account with significant funds that they try to move towards the end of their career only for it to go missing. I'd have lost my mind in that situation!
PSA: Double check everything and anything with Optum. If something smells fishy, it probably does for a reason.
Trading 212 - My broker froze my account and ended up making me lose money
Hello, I doubt I can do anything about this but I'll ask anyway. My broker automatically froze my account yesterday because I supposedly made a large amount of orders (less than 10 a day on average). The average of those orders were positive so I'm unsure why the amount matters, not like i was losing money. I had an ongoing call that I was keeping waiting (hoping) for the price to go up and placing puts as the price was decreasing, so i was slowly making back the unrealised loss (and I did more than make up for it before tariff struck).
Anyway, yesterday I tried to place a put but noticed my account was frozen, asked why and the help center told me the reason above and that it was there to protect me. Anyway, tariff happened today so the earlier mentioned call escalated in price which triggered their automatic order closure when the account reaches 25% of its value. Since my account was frozen i was unable to place a put to stop the fall in price and such. They did prevent me from placing a put just before the tariff struck yesterday, and while it was happening. So i was wondering if I could ask them for any sort of compensations or if I should cry.
the broker is trading 212 just in case.

Progressive - Progressive nightmare
Oh where to begin. I filed a claim on progressive app on Monday got rental sorted and repair rep as they call them goes to body shop and spends four hours only to argue with body shop they feel the rear door is “repairable” when this is hardest hit part of my claim and literally metal chunks missing out of door but they’re agreeing to replace only passenger side door.
Any one have similar issue with progressive ? If so how did you handle escalation. I basically got into it with the repair rep when he called me to say they’re only going to pay for one door to be replaced and that worst damaged door would be repaired. I’m like how do you repair something that is completely busted.
Not to mention the rep had audacity to ask my body shop to remove the opposite side door so he could compare. Is this normal pushback bs progressive does on this situation? Or am I just this lucky to get a complete jackass of an adjusted
Thoughts and advice welcome!
Allstate - All State
So I have auto insurance with All State here in Canada and I was provided a questionnaire for my renewal term which I filled out. All state says to fill it out otherwise there’s penalties and whatnot so I fill it out. They increased the premium on my last monthly payment before renewal and aren’t budging because we sent the questionnaire that they asked for before we paid the last payment so now they’re counting it as a policy change which is stupid. I work as an actuary in auto insurance and I’ve never dealt with this sort of stuff. What should I do?
The other insurance company - Arbitration found me 100% at fault
Earlier this year, I was involved in an accident where I was side swiped by a gardener truck. I was on a residential street and slowed down to look for parking. The gardener truck was behind me but decided to pass me, and when I drove forward a little to park further up, the truck merged back into my lane and struck my car with the equipment hanging off its trunk. They sustained no damages while my drivers side window shattered, mirror broke off, and fender/door sustained damages.
Around 2 months ago, we received a letter from their insurance saying they assessed 55% negligence on their insured driver and 45% on me. They were also willing to pay for 55% of my damages. My insurance decided to take them to arbitration.
During this time I received 2 letters from my representative. The first said that while the other insurance company has accepted full responsibility for the accident, they have not been able to reach a settlement for damages paid. I then received a second letter a month later saying that the arbitrator has ruled in favor of the other party. This seemed like a complete 180.
I was shocked to learn of their final decision and emailed my representative asking if any of my $1,000 deductible would be recovered. She said no and sent me a copy of the arbitration decision which stated the following duties breached on my end: vehicle failed to keep
appropriate lookout and they failed to maintain safe parking maneuvering.
Is there anything I can do at this point? I know the arbitration decision is binding and final but I am honestly just stunned, especially because it felt like the truck failed to safely pass my car. I spoke with my insurance and they said my premium will most likely double. Is this fair?
Brinks - Brinks security system contract, how can I leave this?
Hi, I’m new to this sub. My husband got brinks security system before we got married, few months ago I was going through our monthly budgets and saw $65 for brinks subscription for the cameras barely working and not recording anything when something important happened. For example somebody broke in to my husband’s car and camera didn’t record then I called them and they asked $1500 for cancellation because it’s 5 years contract.. I hung up and was planning to take it to small claim court but some other major life events happened and I didn’t think about it until yesterday when somebody hit my husband’s car in front of our house where the camera supposed to record but it didn’t.. I’m so mad and want to get rid of entire system from our house and don’t want to have any legal attachment to them anymore. How can I do that without paying $1500? Would small claim court fix this? I’m willing spend few hundreds if needed.

Hastings Direct - Hastings cancelled my bike insurance after I passed my full test - Do I need to declare it?
Hi all,
Looking for some advice on this situation:
I had a motorcycle insurance policy with Hastings Direct while riding on a CBT (A1/A2 licence). A few days ago, I passed my full A licence and phoned them to update my details. They then told me that, due to their underwriting criteria, they can no longer insure me with a full licence — and that the policy would be cancelled from the 18th of July 2025.
Shortly after the call, I received an official email confirming the cancellation. It states:
“We’re writing to let you know that your bike insurance policy has been cancelled… This is because of the new information provided. Based on these details, it means we can no longer cover you.”
However, during the phone call, I specifically asked if I’d need to declare this cancellation to other insurers. The rep told me no, I wouldn’t have to, because it wasn’t cancelled due to anything I did wrong (no missed payments, no claims, no dishonesty). They said it was purely down to a change in licence type and eligibility.
I’ve emailed them asking for that in writing to cover myself — but in the meantime:
⸻
My questions are:
1. Do I actually need to declare this as a cancellation when applying for future bike insurance?
2. If I don’t declare it (based on what Hastings told me), can another insurer later void my policy if they find out?
3. Has anyone else experienced something similar?
⸻
I’m trying to avoid getting hit with sky-high premiums over something that wasn’t my fault. Any advice from people in the industry or who’ve been through similar would be much appreciated!
I’ll be pretty shocked if I find out I need to declare this going forward as the policy cancellation outcome has been completely out of my control. Simply phoned to let them know I have now passed my MOD2, I wasn’t looking to change my bike or anything else whatsoever and wanted to continue my policy for the time being with my 2011 Honda CBR. Also worth mentioning — Hastings waived any cancellation fees, and I’m getting a refund for the unused portion of the policy. That seems to suggest they don’t consider it a “bad cancellation,” but I want to make sure I’m not risking non-disclosure by trusting what they said on the phone.
Thanks in advance.
Healthy Paws - Healthy Paws 188% Monthly Premium Increase
Got a policy update email that will take effect in 63 days. Going from $196/month to $567/month. This is actually insane. I got on phone with them and they said it’s not my amount of claims but they consider the state of CA and thst since it is pooled insurance it is what works best for everyone. I was like, this payment is like a luxury car?! The only thing they said to do is lower the reimbursement and up the annual deductible; right now I have 70%/$500 and if I switch to 50%/$1000 it is $372. My dog is 14 years old for the record. I just feel stuck and frustrated. Especially cause switching to a new one means everything becomes pre-existing. Does anyone have a similar experience? Advice?
