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?

Save your money and think twice before choosing Co-operators for business insurance or anything else they offer. You could be a loyal customer for over 10 years with no missed payments, but the moment you inquire about opening a claim, don’t be surprised if you get a call weeks later saying your policy is being cancelled. Do your research and consider taking your business elsewhere.

Arizona - My homeowners renewal policy just arrived with a 1% shed/other structure inclusion. I thought this was a mistake/rollover from our previous house that did have a storage shed. When I called travelers (through our company discounted rate line), the agent said they cannot remove the shed coverage as it is state law - even though I don’t have a structure? He actually got frustrated with me as he’s had to argue this with several policy owners? Is the agent just wildly wrong? What on Earth would I claim against this part of the policy when I don’t have an additional structure? Did AZ pass a really dumb law and I missed it? AZ Homeowners Ins Agent Redditors, please help me make sense of this!

Hello everyone, I have a question. I was recently involved in a not-at-fault accident with an Allstate-insured driver. Unfortunately, my own insurance canceled the night before the accident, so I did not have PIP coverage. Allstate has informed me that I’m responsible for a $7,400 medical bill, despite them reserving $5,500 for future medical expenses related to the accident. If they have funds set aside for medical expenses, why can’t those be applied to the existing bills? I do not feel they are actuinh in good faith. Would it be advisable to seek legal assistance at this point? Thank you for any insights.

The main pipe in my apartment building was backed up, causing some flooding in my unit (living room, kitchen, laundry room, bathroom, bedroom closet). The only thing that got completely ruined was my living room rug, so I tried to use my renters insurance to see if I could get some compensation for that, but they said something about not covering damages that don’t meet my deductible ($250). Some other things got wet due to the flood (some of my shoes, some clothes I had on the ground) but generally dried up decently the next day. They told me to call back if I saw there were other things that were damaged, but i’m not sure what falls under that label. Is it only things that are completely unsalvageable?

I guess my dog just turned 8 according to the age on my Pets Best profile. My monthly premium was $43 and now my bill is $91?? i am newly graduated from my graduate program and going through job fluctuation... wondering if this is worth it given the steep increase in cost. she has been fairly healthy the 5 years i've had her. i've never actually used the insurance policy, i just like having it for my own sake lol because i've invested entirely too much of my own mental stability into this dumb little pitbull. i just did the full senior workup with bloodwork and urinalysis and they said she looks good. if anything dire happens i could borrow money from my family she is my only pet and technically i can afford having only one pet insurance policy. i like the reassurance of having the insurance and it was worth it for me at $43 but $91 has me rethinking

So from just looking on here it seems that this happens often. I got my vehicle yesterday afternoon after them having my car for a lil over a month. I didn’t look at my car much yesterday. This afternoon I went outside and was looking at the stuff on there bill of said repairs for the insurance company. A couple small things look fixed but most stuff looks the same as before as in not touched. The thing is what do I do now? I also had just called said place and the person was busy and in telling the person on the phone if they just ripped insurance company’s off he was dead silent.

I got into a car accident almost a year ago. The person I got into the accident with was insured by State Farm, the accident was in late May, she opened the policy at the beginning of May. At the time of the accident when I called State Farm to attempt to file a claim with their party’s insurance, I was told they couldn’t find the policy in the system. Upon following up numerous times State Farm ultimately denied coverage and I had to open a claim with my insurance. I was not at fault if that matters… My vehicle was totaled out, I paid my deductible and bought a new car with the check issued by my insurance. My insurance was unable to recover my deductible from the driver or State Farm and ultimately sent the file to collections. After the file was sent to collections they were able to recover the deductible, however are unable to tell me who made the payment. Fast forward a year later I get a call from State Farm regarding the accident. Apparently the driver was covered at the time, and they’re offering a settlement. I called my insurance to inquire if they knew the driver was covered and they sent over a copy of State Farm’s written statement denying coverage… accept the person listen under “Our Insured:” doesn’t match the name of the driver which is the same name on the policy information. My question is, I already signed the release for the settlement but this something worth following up on? I spoke to State Farm to ensure the party was actually covered and they confirmed she was. Or should I just wait for payment and let it be?

Now paying $500.94 every 6 months for our 5 year old goldendoodle. We have minimal claims in the past year. Went up significantly this year. Does this sound right around everyone else? We feel like this is a lot to pay but nervous to go down on our coverage in case of an emergency.

Please don't fall for them . They are a scam . Besides internist personally writing to them that my cats who (needed biopsy )condition was not pre-existing sending 2 years of medical records calling emailing speaking with several people who barely know what their doing they denied my claim. Don't fall for their lying sales people . I report them to BBB I hope more people will ,Spot can't keep scamming people.
