Hey everyone, I had lemonade pet insurance for around a year but they don’t cover my dogs allergies (pre exist). They also upped my insurance to almost 50 bucks a month, before it was 35. So I dropped them and have been putting money away each week in the stock market in case of an emergency. I have been doing this for almost a year and have around 700 bucks in it now (robinhood). Obviously the stocks are down right now and I’m down 30 bucks but historically they will go up again. Just wondering if anyone else has decided to this instead, it’s nice seeing my money actually being saved rather than throwing it away with pet insurance and things they do not cover. I first got my dog and took him to the vet prior to getting insurance and that’s why they don’t cover his allergy meds. NOTE: always get pet insurance before going to the vet if you choose to get it.

Like home and car insurance in California, looks like Umbrella premiums have gone through roof. Is that true for others in Cali? I'm with State Farm. $2M umbrella was a few hundred dollars last year; renewing now at $2400/year (no claims, no accidents, no lawsuits). 3 cars; 3 drivers. Own home. No pets, not much liability. Anyone else got this sort of increase year over year?

So like the title says, I crashed my car in July. It was stated that I was at fault and geico covered every bill, except the ambulance one. The thing is, I didn't know there was an ambulance bill until a month ago, they said somehow the ambulance wasn't able to get the insurance or anything but I called GEICO and sent over the bill, and now they are saying they can't cover it and it has to be sent through my health insurance. I'm confused on that part because I thought if it was a vehicle accident then GEICO would cover it, but now they're saying otherwise. I'm just trying to understand the policies cuz I'm just confused right now. Edit: I live in NJ, and they said my coverage wasn't exhausted yet.

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

Anybody had any experience with red.co.uk life insurance? Seem relatively new, offer a voucher and kids plush toy for taking out a policy but there’s next to nothing about them online. Bottom of the page states red family finance is a broker, they contact on WhatsApp after filling in a webform, seems like trying to pressure you before the ‘offer ends’ or the voucher ‘expires’

Hi! I'm 19 and I recently bought a car and got my license. I called up progressive for car insurance since most of my family is with them and they said that I would have to pay around 484$ a month for minimum liability coverage. This surprised me because the first time my siblings enrolled with them they paid a little over 200$ and that wasn't too long ago. My car isn't new either, it's a 2007 Honda Pilot. If anyone knows any better insurance companies who aren't as expensive please let me know!

I just had a Total Loss on my home which was insured by Amica Mutual. Almost all reputable insurance carriers pay out the face value of the policy. Amica decided to use an obscure New York loophole to "AVERAGE" out what THEY feel I should get instead of what I paid for. They offered me less than 50% of THEIR ADJUSTOR'S replacement cost with the balance paid out after "THEIR REVIEW AND APPROVAL".

Hi All, Looking for some advice/experience dealing with pet insurance. I have 2 sister cats, 5 years old. I just spent an obscene amount of money on dental work for one of them and am trying to determine if pet insurance makes sense for me going forward. Cat 1 has had some eye infections in the past, at this point treated but she will flare up occasionally when she's stressed. I'm worried that will be considered a pre-existing condition and won't be covered because she's received treatment before. Cat 2 is the dental work one, and I am anticipating more cleanings in her future. Does previous dental work trigger a pre-existing condition or have you seen that in your experience? She's also getting treatment right now for an ear infection and I'm worried she's susceptible to those as well and that will also be flagged as pre-existing. I have no faith that an insurance company will deal with me fairly, so I'm wondering if it's even worth it if any of these issues won't be covered as they're what I go to the vet for usually. I have a number of options for insurance based on my employer's perk programs. I see a place like Spot will cover issues after 180 days, but then it seems like they only cover $100 on dental cleaning? That doesn't seem like much when for cats they have to sedate them anyway? I'm sort of rambling but I guess my ultimate question is - is it too late to get insurance for these cats because I've been diligent on getting them treatment in the past?

I have had Embrace pet insurance for my dog and cat for 10 years and they have always been Awesome and I have a 90% Reimbursement Rate on covered claims . They have covered many claims and have helped alot . I do pay a hefty monthly price to have this peace of mind. I’m use to an annual increase that’s incremental but a 55% jump from 220 a month is just outlandish in my opinion to 340 a month now . Have you experienced a High Rate Increase also?

I currently have Spot but they decided to raise my premium with no real extra benefit (as most insurance companies do around this time of year). I am now getting charged around $40 a month for a $500 deductible, 90% reimbursement after deductible and no preventative care. Is this fair? Also if anyone has actually filed a claim and been satisfied with the company/experience which was it? Any company I should avoid all together? Insight would be nice! (side note: I was looking at Progressive coverage since I could bundle with auto but idk if that's a good idea)
