hello! i know my issue isn't major, but I need help as I am desperate to solve this. Long story short, I had medical for the longest time and never had any issues until January when I was informed (when trying to make a dentist appointment) that I had a UMR blockage. I was confused but was told to call medical and get it resolved. I called them and they said to get in touch with UMR whcihc I tried but was beyond useless as they ask for a member ID which I stated multiple time I DONT HAVE, and after somehow bypassing the answering machine UMR tells me they have no records of me ever existing and to basically die in a ditch as they just hunged up on me. I explained this to medical, and they made me fill out a form to remove "other healthcare coverage," and it should be removed (I did this twice, btw). It in fact was not as I tried to make a dentist appointment again and same thing: "UMR blockage. please take this up with medical". I called medical again, and they gave me a case ID and told me to ask UMR for a "coverage termination letter," which I tried to do, but again, they told me, "We don't know you we can't do anything" and hung up on me. I explained this to Medical, and they filled out a form (the same one I did), and it should be resolved, yet I don't know if it actually be. Also, worth to mention one of the workers I spoke to told me that the UMR policy I was under was my uncles, whom I have had no contact since like five years ago and have no connection with at this point, the alleged policy began in 2023 so I don't understand how this even happened:C when I tried to report the fraud to medical they said "you cant report it here, report it to UMR and then we could try to remove the block because until then we cannot remove an active policy by law" But UMR has been beyond useless and I'm scared because I have a cavity and I know its not serious but I am afraid it could get worse Im just trying to see if anyone was in my same situation (which is very unlikely) or if I could get any recommendations on what to do because I don't know how to proceed anymore and this just pmo. Anyways thank you to whoever read this and pls help

26, tried to get heath care for the first time in January. I thought I was going through healthcare.gov. Guess I called a wack number. “Premier Health Solutions/Health care member services.” Told me 383$ for first 2 months as lump payments then $10 rest of the year. That was a straight up lie. It’s 383$ every month and I will be broke if I keep getting charged. I went through the chat feature to begin cancelation and got an email saying the process has started and I’ll get confirmation but I haven’t yet. I called again about it and they said I’ll get a call from an agent to confirm cancellation. I can’t afford to make another payment and I’m terrified.

So long story short, we have been with a smaller insurance company for 5+ years with home and auto. Our insurance rates keep skyrocketing with no claims/accidents/ tickets etc. With our current company our home and auto is $7900 a year. (Two cars) I decided to talk with a broker and they presented me with an estimate from travelers for the EXACT same coverage for $4000 a year. I mean, almost half for the exact same coverage? I find it hard to believe. I was planning on switching if the savings was more than $1000 anyway, but I don’t want to start the process and they’re like oh sorry it’s actually $7500 not $4000 lol.

I had a great experience with Nationwide for my previous dog, who had epilepsy and developed a lot of complications. We hit our plan’s annual limit halfway through the year, every year — and they paid out thousands without much hassle. Genuinely smooth process. So naturally, when I got my new puppy (Alfie), I went back to get a quote. But they quoted me over $200/month. I’m guessing it’s because of my history of high claims, even though this is a totally new dog and policy. I ended up going with Lemonade (for wellness/preventative) and Trupanion (for emergencies/accidents), and I’m paying less than $100 total per month. Just wanted to share in case others are running into similar pricing surprises with Nationwide. Happy to answer questions about my setup!

i hope this is the right subreddit for this! i just found out that my dietitian for an ed is no longer fully covered by insurance and my weekly appointments are now going to cost 90 dollars. i’m wondering if there’s a way to get insurance to continue to cover? like could i have my primary care physician or psychiatrist refer me to a dietitian? tbf i am not as aware of how insurance works as i should be so i have no idea if its even a possibility. edit for clarity: my insurance has not changed. i live in michigan and use blue cross blue shield. i was unaware that they will only fully cover a certain number of appointments and i have reached that number.

In October 2024, I was in a very small and minor MVA. I rear ended a vehicle at a stop light when I let my foot off the gas pedal (less than 10 mph at most). I have CA legal liability. Location: California My problem is that the driver is claiming excessive damage to the vehicle. He's claiming bodily injury to himself and his child.. There was no child present and I know for a fact that the impact did not cause any vehicle damage. My insurance has already paid $2000 for vehicle damage and has prepared an offer of $8000 for bodily injury (as of 4/4/25).. What can I do?? Legally? My insurance is advising that they will represent me should the other party not accept the offer. I'm taking this very personally, and it's hard not to feel like the other party is abusing the system (my personal opinion in respect to my recall of events).

I was rear ended at a dead stop and it caused $13k of damage. I have a Hyundai Palisade with only 9.5K miles on it. Allstate accepted fault, but they are denying my claim for loss of value. They are saying since my Palisade was in an accident (also rear ended) three years ago ($17K damage in that one) that there would be no additional loss of value. I find it hard to believe the second accident would diminish the value of my car by ZERO. What are my options here? Thanks in advance!

I received a letter today from Rawlings Company on behalf of my insurance company BCBS. I was in an auto accident in 2024. Single vehicle. I was the driver and my daughter was the passenger. Thw letter is confusing and it mentions that I was making a claim to another party's insurance or my own. It goes on to mention a settlement. And ends with if I choose to hire an attorney please provide their information. What in the heck is this? I'm so confused

Hey everybody, I hope it's alright to post as I'm from the UK but we are in the south west and my elderly grandmother (I think she is around 87 but she hates telling us her age) Has been being charged 85 pound a month according to her bank statements by pet plan. He is an elderly jack Russel now but she would have got him insured a lot younger but I'm not sure of his age exactly. He has no pre-existing medical conditions and my grandmother is not very good at managing online but she wants her independence. Can anybody recommend a pet insurance company in the UK that is easy to use/acsess the details of? TLDR: What is a good easy interface/acsess pet insurance company for a senior jack Russel?

Hello! I have a 4 year old dog and I am looking to change my policy from healthy paws. I think they're great but I hate that I have to pay for yearly vaccinations/checkups and dont get re imbursed. Any recommendations for a good insurance that has a low deductible and will reimburse annual exams which include vaccinations, possible dental care and flea meds? Thanks in advance!
