Have an issue with your insurance?

GEICO - Accident w/ gov vehicle
Location: Inland Empire, CA Date of accident: 07/09 @10:30am
This is my first car accident ever and I need help. I have a 2012 honda civic coupe and I was driving from one traffic light to the next staying in the right about to turn right at the next light into a shopping complex. There was a car speeding at the first traffic light in the lane closest to the left turning lane (there was only 4 lanes; 2 turning, 2 middle going straight) which I noticed and decided to keep some distance. Before I got to the second light, I was passing a gas station and I gave a quick glance to see the entrance in which I was about to turn into and next thing I know I get hit on my driver side. We pull into the gas station and exchange information. Come to find out he 20yr marine driving gov vehicle apparently he wasn’t supposed to be driving. I call the police and they said they would not come because there was no injuries to me or my mom or the other folks in the other car. As of right now I have emotional trauma and anxiety whenever I get on the road again. My adrenaline was so heightened I wouldn’t even have noticed if there was an injuries. His recruiter pulls up and says he would take the fault instead and that way less damage to them. I said as long as I’m taken care of with the right amount for my car I don’t care (this might have been a mistake and said in heightened anxiety and panic so please let me know if I was wrong, I gave a report with my insurance saying it was the recruiter already so :/ if so can I fix it?). I was okay knowing i might be able to drive my car a few miles back to the house but less than a quarter mile and the car started smoking so we had to get it towed. My front driver tire is tilted inward and my bumper and fender faced real damages. My panic and anxiety starts setting in real bad so first though obviously reach out to my insurance. I have GEICO (come to find out I don’t have collision coverage which is a factor I entrusted to my dad but story for a different day) and they have GSA (they are with USMC). My insurance already said I’m not at fault but can’t do much for me right now (they can reimburse a rental though). The people involved said they filed a report with GSA (implying I hit them which I figured but the footage says otherwise) and I’m going to put a claim in to GSA but I’m just waiting to get a quote on the damages. I’m told this process is going to be long and brutal so I could use all the help I can get. People are saying get a lawyer and some are saying don’t get one and I don’t know how to navigate that. My car is old so it’s only worth a little (170k over a decade old with a salvaged title with some issues like AC and wheel bearing) and it doesn’t make sense to me to put whatever money I get into it when I can put it for a new car. This is my first car so I’ve been super emotional and I have been stressed through this process as I feel like I’m navigating it mainly alone. I have also missed a few days of work because I don’t have a vehicle to get there. Any advice and help would be greatly appreciated. I’ll need all the help I can get.
I have footage I can provide as well of the accident.
ICICI Lombard - ICICI Lombard Tried to Guilt Trip Me During Porting
I've had a health insurance policy for my mother with ICICI Lombard since 2007. The recent premium was ₹70,000 (including GST) for a sum insured of ₹3 lakhs + ₹3 lakhs bonus, totaling ₹6 lakhs annually.
For the past few years, I had been meaning to port the policy but never got around to it. This year, I finally managed to do it—moved to Care Insurance. The new plan offers ₹10 lakhs sum insured with a 50% increase each year, covers pre/post hospitalization, existing diseases, and even includes a few more benefits. And all this for a significantly better premium of 51000 (inclusive GST).
After I initiated the port, I got a call from ICICI Lombard asking if I wanted to renew. I politely informed them that I had ported to Care. As expected, they started with the usual pitch about how ICICI is better than Care. When I still didn’t budge, the agent had the audacity to say:
**“Lagta hai aap yeh premium afford nahi kar sakte.”**
(Translation: *Looks like you can't afford this premium.*)
Really? Is this how some insurance companies try to manipulate customers—by playing on their ego?
Anyway, I'm glad I finally made the switch. ICICI may want to revisit how their customer support operates.
Renewal by Andersen - Cut bait or stay with Renewal by Andersen?
We bought replacememt windows: 4 sash, and 2 casement. The four sash windows leak air. The sale rep who sold the whole package to us knew how bad the wind was on our farm (we told him) but sold us these sash windows anyway. Five "adjustment" visits later, now one of them is leaking rain too. RBA came out and has offered to replace all the sash windows with casements (the two have performed well). Do I dare stay with them or should I demand a refund? This company is weird. The installers and service people are wonderful--unfailingly professional and polite, but the marketing and sales are... liars and worse.
Pets Best - Pets Best premium increase. New policy with same company is 50% less. Why not submit new application?
Pets Best insurance premium increased 50% last month. Premium initially doubled when I moved from SC to NC 3 yrs ago then this additional 50%.
Current coverage;
- accident/illness - Unlimited, 90% reimbursement, $250 deductible.
-No well care. Annual premiums are only about $20 less than annual WellCare visit charge.
Ran a new quote online from same company. It is 50% of new premium (so less than premium before last month’s increase). Makes no sense.
1 dog - Doxy long-hair - 5 yrs old. Insurance with Pets Best since I got him at 6-8 weeks old. He’s generally healthy but I carry insurance because of typical issues a doxy can develop as they age.
The only vet visits he’s had outside of well care:
(1) Urgent care visit & call to poison control in 2022 after he got into medication (claim was made and they paid around $50).
(2) An out of town visit to vet when he had Gastro issues (throwing up/diarrhea) and wasn’t eating. Cause unknown. Given a round of antibiotics and no more issues. This vet isn’t on his records and I didn’t file a claim since it was under my deductible.
My questions:
(1) Outside of taking a chance that something happens during the waiting period of a new policy, is there any reason I shouldn’t apply for a new policy to get the lower premium?
(2) Will the prior poison visit be considered existing condition if there is another event? He was fine and hadn’t ingested anything harmful. They just watched him for a couple hours.
(3) Is the insurance company likely to pick up the out of town gastro visit and consider any future gastro issues an existing condition since I didn’t claim?
Thanks in advance for input.
State Farm - Glass coverage in CA?
Got a crack on windshield recently and just found out there is no specific "Glass coverage" policy for me. What I'm trying to say is if I wanna use my insurance to replace the windshield then I need to use the main accident coverage or something to cover it and I have $1000 deductable since Safelite gives me a $1100 quote and if I use insurance it will make my rates higher in the future, so it's kinda worthless and means I have to pay the $1100 windshield by myself. I've heard some ppl have a specific glass coverage which means it will cover any glass replacement with 0 deductable and will not affect my rates.
So my question it's the CA thing or did I just pick the bad company? I have Statefarm for now since it's the "No.1" insurance company and I just don't wanna any trouble if one day I have some damage and need to claim. If it's the company, any recommendations? Ty.
at fault drivers insurance - PSA - be nice & get your money
TL;DR: Be nice and…get yo money??
I made a post a few days ago about how I was seeking compensation for the stress caused my the mishandling and lying committed by the at fault drivers insurance. This was my first car accident, so I’ve never dealt with the claims side of insurance. I explained how it’s my understanding they were in violation of the Unfair Claims Settlement Practices Act and how when I finally got ahold of the other insurances adjuster, he made multiple false statements (which his supervisor confirmed were untrue statements). For many reasons told and untold, this was stressful.
I made a post explaining how I was seeking compensation for the stress caused by the mishandling of this claim and asked what the chances were that I’d get compensation. I came here seeking genuine answers and instead I received belittling comments, essentially saying “you will receive nothing you dumb fuck.”
Well…I just received an email today from the insurance agreeing to pay exactly the amount I asked for.
While I get things take time, not hearing a single word from the other insurance for almost two months when their own policy says they reply within one business day, and making multiple unnecessary false statements is not right. Making belittling comments to someone is also not right.
My point is, be nicer. Don’t join a subreddit where people are seeking genuine answers if you can’t give them, or simply don’t comment.
AND, if an insurance company got you feeling stressed, take a chance. It might literally pay off.
Progressive - Proving Headlights Weren't On
US Florida. I was involved in a car crash recently and don't know what to do. What happened was that I was exiting a fast food drive thru late at night. The drive thru exits onto 4-lane divided road and there is a stop sign controlling the intersection. I stopped at the stop sign and looked down the road to see if it was clear. I saw no oncoming traffic, so I turned right into the left lane as I was intending on taking a U turn at the next available place which is fairly close to where I entered the road. (Yes, I know this is illegal. I got a ticket for this and I know I won't be getting out of it.) As I turned into the left lane, I collided with another driver who was driving in the left lane. I did not see this other vehicle whatsoever even though I looked before I entered the road. Damage to both vehicles was minimal and neither of us were injured. We were able to move to a nearby parking lot before the police were called to the scene and we exchanged information. At the time I was freaking out about the whole situation and not thinking clearly and only remized later that the other person's headlights obviously weren't on, otherwise I 100% would have seen them. I tried emailing my insurance company (Progressive) that was handling the case, but never got any response. There are traffic cameras at the nearby major intersection as well as security cameras from nearby businesses that I believe would be able to help, but I can't get any footage from them. I asked in person at the businesses and called the police department and they all told me insurance would have to handle it. So what do I do? Do I have to get a lawyer? Is it even worth it to do so?

State Farm - It has been a month I have submitted my kitchen water damage claim without updates. Is this common? (State Farm)
I filed a water damage claim a month ago and have not gotten any sort of compensation or even an update on the claim. They sent an adjuster out but I have heard nothing since besides they are behind on claims right now. I have called several times a week and my agent/adjuster does not pick up besides one call back saying they are behind and to sit tight. Is this standard for State Farm?
