I bought a car at Carmax within the week, and just got a call that the lender, Ally, is requesting a paid in full letter for a previous vehicle. The vehicle they are asking about was repossessed in 2021. I do not have a paid in full letter, but a cancellation of debt. I'm afraid to submit that and them not fund the loan. Will this hurt me?

Hello, I'm in Oregon and hoping to get some insight on receiving a non-renewal notice on my homeowners insurance from Progressive due to a wildfire risk score of 21 (out of 50). How is the wildfire risk score calculated? A wildfire risk map and assessment released by Oregon State University show my property as being in the low risk category, so receiving this notice of non-renewal is a little confusing. Thank you for any insight you can provide.

We have a storm damage claim in since June 20th, adjuster came out July 2nd, he sent an estimate and a payment (which we have not yet accepted) on the 3rd. We’ve been trying to get in touch with him since the 7th to no avail (voicemail says he’ll call back within one business day). What’s my next move?

Hi all, I have been losing my mind trying to figure out which coverage would be best for my pup. He is a 1YO chihuahua/poodle mix who was rescued off the side of the road at 3 months with a broken hip. He has had FHO surgery which did seem to help reduce his pain and allow him to put more weight on the limb (left hindleg). He loves running and jumping around and generally acts like a happy puppy, but will likely always walk with a limp. I'm aware he may develop issues as he gets older from compensating. We currently have Pets Best, which we have not had a good experience with. We have sent them the same documents three times and every time they said they did not receive it, even when I'm actively looking at the email to their claims department while on the phone with them. Then it takes a full two months for them to review the documents, only for at the end of two months for them to close my claim because they did not receive my documents.... and thus the cycle continues....... Which insurance would you recommend? Should I just suck it up and accept that I'm likely going to have to pay in full for any orthopedic issues? I'm happy paying on the higher end ($70-$100 a month) for more full coverage that would include exam visits, medications, etc, but I'm having a hard time figuring out which insurance would work best for my pet. Any advice y'all have to give would be greatly appreciated and save me hours of going down this rabbit hole!!!

I recently submitted a claim to Trupanion and it seems kind of weird. For example, let's say I claimed for $1000. The deductible is $200 and a 90% coverage rate, which means I pay 10% coinsurance. So based on that, I thought the math would work like this: * $1000 - $200 (deductible) = $800 * 90% of $800 = $720 → Trupanion pays * 10% of $800 = $80 → I pay (coinsurance) But instead, here’s how they seem to calculate it: * 10% of $1000 = $100 → My coinsurance * $1000 - $100 - $200(deductible) = $700 → Trupanion’s portion This feels off to me — like they’re applying the coinsurance *before* the deductible, which doesn’t seem logical. Shouldn’t the deductible come off first, and *then* they apply the 90% coverage to the remaining amount? Has anyone else experienced this with Trupanion? Am I misunderstanding how their calculation is supposed to work? Is all other pet insurance company calculate the claim in this way?

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 😅

Hi, I was at a red light this morning and a big truck behind me slammed the gas before the car in front of me started moving. They sped up driving by me right after pulled over. Total asshole. The police report is complete and there was a camera at the light and a witness called in. However, turns out the tag on the vehicle was out of date…I have never been in an accident before. I have usaa insurance and have a claim open but was curious what happens in this situation. Do I end up paying everything out of pocket? I was not at fault so it really sucks.

We bought our home just outside the Twin Cities area in mid last year, and at the time our Travelers homeowners insurance premium was around **$1,680/year**. This year, our renewal came in at **over $3,300**. After some back and forth, I changed the deductible to match last year’s, but the total was still around **$2,800**. I contacted a few other insurance companies, and their quotes were all in the same \~$3k range. I was told that **all homeowners insurance carriers in MN increased rates significantly this past year**. Has anyone else experienced this? * Do you know *why* rates jumped so much in Minnesota? * Are there any strategies to cut this cost beyond just raising the deductible? Any insight would be appreciated. As a note, there were several homes in our area that had their roofs replaced about 2-3 years ago, because of hail damage or something like that, I would have imagined that it would have caused the price hike last year, not this.

Had my payment coming up of $519 ( 2 payments of 259, lumped together) I instacart for my income and it had become too hot recently to do as much as normal. I let geico know i could pay some not the full amount due, representative told me pay what I can.. thinking it was notated on my acct and id be ok.. (8 years of coverage) I continued to work although I started training at the job I finally got hired for, taking away time to instacart.. long story short I saw Geico canceled me on 7/21, I found out a few days ago because I don’t check emails often. They usually text me. Im in NY, To reinstate I need to pay off my balance 389 + 300 for new coverage.. I don’t get paid until the 15th.. anything I can do? what do I need to be concerned about? any penalties.. etc. Really thought the representative did me a solid, why not say it would still cancel?!

pretty pissed tbh...my corgi went through a bad bout of emergency diagnostics early this year, all covered by nationwide at the time. He went back recently to have a recheck, sent it into nation wide like I had already done, suddenly it's denied. I did the review request and provided tons of documentation from the doctors. they claim its preexisting, and also went and retroactively said that all of my other claims shouldn't have been paid out. He was diagnosed with protein losing enteropathy, and they're saying that because he "vomited" earlier in the year (our first sign), thats preexisting. This is insane. Cancel your shit before you have an emergency and it happens to you
