I decided to delve into my homeowners policy to understand it in more detail because of a current potential claim. I was amazed that the 30-page document that I had from Allstate didn’t include may details beyond our coverage limits. There were 8 “amendments” listed, but only 2 were included. After chatting with a customer service rep, it appears that the information I need is in the “policy jacket”. Amazingly, I can’t get an electronic copy and have to wait 5-7 business days to get a copy in the mail. So much for paperless.

I was in an accident back in April. At the time I did not have insurance on my car. The driver who hit and totaled my car admitted fault. Since I didn’t have insurance at the time I contacted their insurance company(Corvel) myself. After 2 months of constantly calling I was able to get in contact with an agent and she was able to compensate me for the car damages and towing charges. She later said she would take care of my medical. I was supposed to gather my medical records from the day of the accident and my medical bills and email them to her. I sent them back in the beginning of June and have not heard back since. Ive emailed and called and have heard nothing. Is this worth pursuing or should I just call it a day and be grateful for what I have received?

Hi everyone! We went with Pets Best for our kittens’ insurance, which starts for illness coverage on 8/21/25. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork was done last week in preparation for one of our kittens’ neuter scheduled on the 18th. The results came back a bit all over the place, which the vet wasn’t concerned by as he said it could be due to him being so young. However, the vet mentioned his T4 is elevated, which could suggest juvenile hyperthyroidism. We’ll need to retest in six months to see if it normalizes. My question is: since this was found before the waiting period for illness coverage ended, and there are no symptoms, no official diagnosis, and no specific treatment or medical advice given yet, do you think Pets Best will consider this a pre-existing condition? A bit stressed that if it does come back as high in 6 months, something that seems like it may be a very expensive lifelong condition is going to be automatically excluded due to an incidental finding 😅

Hey everyone! I currently have metlife for my one dog and want to add my newly adopted dog. They tried selling me on their preventative but I feel like when I get a new quote on their site the information is different than what was being pushed to me over the phone. These are the pictures I have. She said that all my dogs flea and tick would be covered for the year after my deductible but if I'm reading this correctly I would only get a payout of $75 for the year. Is that correct? That doesn't seem worth it at all. Also, She was actually so pushy I'm also considering switching insurances completely.. I've looked into AKC, Spot, and embrace but I need one that covers potential foreign object ingestion and AKC only has once in a lifetime which to me is crazy. My pup picks up stuff on a walk, chews on sticks, etc I'm almost about to put a muzzle to be safe. Thankfully nothing bad so far, but after my aunts experience of her dog swallowing an Avocado pit I want to make sure I have one that covers this just in case.

I have not enrolled in Trupanion but I am interested in them because of their direct pay options.. however I was chatting with an agent and I asked about prior history of colds or ear infections and she said that would be a pre-existing condition. She said it also depends on the record review. I asked for a contact to review my records and she said that can only be done after enrolling. I asked for a compliance department contact, and she said that isn't available for members. Can someone give me any insight to any of these statements? I'm getting different responses when I speak with different agents.

State Farm raised my insurance from $180 a month to $340 over the span of 6 months. Very little and random explanations. My car is 10 years old, it’s insane. P.s. anyone know of good and not stupid expensive insurance in Los Angeles?

I have a six-year-old lab mix (50 lbs) who is in good health, but a couple months ago, she was limping a little bit and had an x-ray in which the vet I saw said there was some minor flattening of one of her hip joints. I have a family member who is a vet in another state, and she said from the scan she saw, there was nothing worth noting or treating and she seemed to be in perfect health for her age. She’s also stopped limping entirely about a week or so after that appointment. However, I know that the vet we saw does have it in her chart. I tried to file a claim on this, but as with literally every other claim I have ever made (nothing serious or crazy expensive so I let it go), it was denied. I have had Figo since I got her at 1.5 yo (rescue), but the same plan that I still have since I signed up shortly after adopting her started at about $25 a month, and now is creeping up to almost $125. My annual renewal date is mid February, so I have been thinking about making the switch. However, I am wondering if because of this last visit, if she were to develop hip dysplasia later in life, they would use that as an excuse not to cover anything. Barring any accidents or random injuries, it doesn’t seem at this point that anything else is concerning or showing signs of future problems at this point. She’s an inside dog and has always been up-to-date on her shot and flea, tick, and heartworm meds. The vet did bloodwork when I took her in for x-rays, and everything came back crystal clear, as it has any other time she has had blood work done. I’ve just become increasingly frustrated with Figo given the price hikes every year and their refusal to accept anything. I feel like I’m wasting my money, but don’t want to get screwed over later on if a new company sees it a pre-existing condition. But I’m also too anxious to not have any insurance at all. Anyone have experiences similar to this? Any advice? Do I just tough it out and keep shelling out the cash just in case? I know I should have probably switched years ago, but here we are.

Idk but this happened nung January pa this year, but I have come to notice that yung mga agents nila sa malls (esp sa SM) are not working professionally. I get that gusto nila makabenta pero di naman tama yung 'tactics' nila. Kaya napagkakamalan silang scam eh. Well my personal experience, would say parang na scam nako. May babaeng lumapit claiming na may ibibigay daw silang prize if sasali ako sa "raffle" kuno nila, makikipag usap tapos pupuriin pa then the next thing I know is papuntahin ako sa office since kukunin ko daw yung prize without knowing na dito na mag sisimula yung kalbaryo ko. May FA na kumausap, mag bibigay ng advise or whatever. Ako naman, I thought nag mamarket lang, umabot kami ng 45 minutes don then yun na pala, ipa aavail na ng policy nila. I declined first, sabi ko "your agent said na di kayohihingi ng kahit anong money or what, so bakit kailangan kong bumili ng policy niyo?" Nagalit pa yung FA, inulit yung mga sinabi kanina. Ang ending napabayad ako ng about 9k good for three months na yun. Nakakbweset lang kasi bakit kailangan mang linlang, and bakit may pamwersa sa mga tao kung tatanggi. If you're a professional, you would not get mad at someone saying "AYOKO", and in the first place dapat di na kayo nag sinungaling na wala kaming babayarang kahit na ano. - just a rant lang, nag lapse na yung policy ko since di ko na tinuloy yung pag hulog, sana napakain nila mga pamilya nila sa 9k na kinuha nila.

I feel like this rate is insane for me being by myself 21 year old male in a brand new $50k plus Cadillac, I do need the snapshot through progressive (absolutely hate that) but I have been told my policy is half what it should be anywhere else. Clean record but why is my policy so low? I have average deductibles and had a third party review my account and said the coverage is right where it should be.

Hi I would like to hear your thoughts on Wawanesa Insurance? Plan to switch from AAA to Wawanesa. AAA double my insurance, no accident or traffic ticket. Please let me know. TIA.
